Republicans not backing down on contempt votes

Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, goes to the House Rules Committee to argue procedures as the House of Representatives prepares to vote on whether Attorney General Eric Holder is in contempt of Congress because he has refused to give the Oversight Committee all the documents it wants related to Operation Fast and Furious, the flawed gun-smuggling probe involving Mexican drug cartels, on Capitol Hill in Washington, Wednesday, June 27, 2012.

(AP) ? Barring a last-minute deal, House Republicans plan historic votes Thursday to hold Attorney General Eric Holder in civil and criminal contempt of Congress for refusing to turn over documents related to a bungled gun-tracking operation.

A sitting attorney general never has been held in contempt and Republicans picked an odd day to set a precedent. They scheduled the votes the same day the Supreme Court was deciding the legality of President Barack Obama's health care law.

Passage of the contempt resolutions was not in doubt. Republicans control the House, and are likely to pick up Democrats who support the National Rifle Association. The NRA said it's keeping score on how members vote, partly because the gun owners' group believes the Obama administration wanted to use the program ? called Operation Fast and Furious ? to make the case for more gun control.

Rep. John Dingell, D-Mich., the longest serving House member and normally an NRA supporter, said Wednesday he would not back the contempt resolutions but instead wants the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee to conduct a more thorough investigation.

The criminal contempt resolution would send the matter to the U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia, who is under Holder. The civil contempt resolution would allow the House to go to court in an effort to force Holder to turn over documents the Oversight Committee wants. In past cases, courts have been reluctant to settle disputes between the executive and legislative branches of government.

The House is unlikely to get the documents anytime soon, because Obama has invoked a broad form of executive privilege, which protects from disclosure internal documents from executive branch agencies.

Republicans want to focus on the economy and health care in an election year. They're hoping the diversion of holding the nation's chief law enforcement officer in contempt will not muddle their message.

Democrats have kept up steady criticism, accusing the GOP majority of trying to embarrass the administration and rushing to judgment rather than putting more effort into a compromise that could give Republicans the documents they want.

Maryland Rep. Elijah Cummings, the top Democrat on the Oversight Committee, said a committee report recommending contempt had more than 100 mischaracterizations, omissions and errors. He said the dispute could be settled if House Speaker John Boehner became personally involved in negotiations.

In Operation Fast and Furious, agents of the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives in Arizona abandoned the agency's usual practice of intercepting all weapons they believed to be illicitly purchased. Instead, the goal of the tactic known as "gun-walking" was to track such weapons to high-level arms traffickers who long had eluded prosecution and to dismantle their networks.

Gun-walking long has been barred by Justice Department policy, but federal agents in Arizona experimented with it in at least two investigations during the George W. Bush administration before Fast and Furious. The agents in Arizona lost track of several hundred weapons in Fast and Furious.

Two of the guns turned up at the scene where border agent Brian Terry was killed in Arizona in a shootout with Mexican bandits.

Ironically, the documents at the heart of the current argument are not directly related to the workings of Operation Fast and Furious. Rather, they are internal Justice Department communications after February 2011, when the Obama administration falsely told Congress that guns were not allowed to "walk" to Mexico. The department has given the Oversight Committee's chairman, Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., 7,600 documents on the operation itself.

Fast and Furious had been shut down by the time of the false information, but Issa wants documents showing deliberations during the 10 months it took for the administration to acknowledge the error.

Issa told the House Rules Committee on Wednesday that he had no evidence that Holder personally knew that guns were allowed to "walk." But he has suspected some Justice Department officials were part of a cover-up.

Democrats insisted the administration did nothing wrong, and said Republicans were just playing politics.

"It has all the trappings of a witch hunt," said Rep. Louise Slaughter of New York, the top Democrat on the Rules Committee. "I don't think there's any way we're doing justice to Brian Terry with what we're doing today."

Issa, however, said the documents he wants are essential to learn who in the administration produced a February 2011 letter with false information.

Referring to Justice Department officials, Issa said, "When did they know we were lied to and what did they do about it?"

Issa also said closure was needed for Terry's family.

White House spokesman Jay Carney said Wednesday that the public would view the vote as "political theater" and "gamesmanship."

Carney said the Justice Department and the White House on Tuesday had shown House Republicans a representative sample of the documents they were seeking. He said the administration's offer would have provided "unprecedented access" to internal communications about how it responded to congressional inquiries into the Fast and Furious program.

Are you going to Arnemuiden Fair? ~ The tragic death of Adriana in ...

Als ik de vrienden besoekende was

When performing historical research a confrontation with death is rather inevitable, and often it is the last chapter when writing a biography. The saddest part is that for the majority of past populations it is the only decently documented moment of their lives.

Death also knows many variations. There is the slow fading kind of the elderly. We know the abrupt and heart-breaking kind of a women dying while giving, or shortly after, childbirth. Also inevitable is the bloody death of many men (and women) who died on the battlefield or otherwise in war time. Quite fascinating can be the gruesome and destructive kind of death where blood spatters from the old documents. And there is bad luck, which makes us shiver, shake our heads pitifully, or even -it happens- laugh.

This particular footnote in history falls in the category of pitifully shaking one?s head. I had this note (the text above) for some time in a special folder. Recently, I was in the opportunity to see if I could find more about it. Alas, it has nothing to do with parsley, sage, rosemary, nor thyme. It tells the sad story of an accident which caused the death of a young girl. She was shot, most likely by accident. It is a tough job to translate old Dutch when it is set to rhyme like this text. This time I won?t even try, as it would end up unreadable. But I did write a translation for the sake of conveying the message of the text.

When I was visiting our friends / to bring my part of joy, / I honoured the annual fair / with the event of my burial. / Because of frivolous shooting / and idle amusement / I had to taste / the bitter tang of death. / For howbeit eluding the shot / when the rifleman laid for his aim; / who can escape death ? / when it has God?s assent?

Adriana, daughter of Gislenus Bogaart, died aged 14 on August 22nd, 1594, in the city of Arnemuiden. She was visiting family[1] during the fair. What should have been a joyful visit full of entertainment, ended as a tragedy. It is not likely that she was buried in Arnemuiden. I gather that she was brought home and buried there. Where that is, is yet unknown. The text doesn?t hint about her origins other than giving us the name of her father. Perhaps, one day, it shall be known where the poor girl was from. The problem is that this is the end of the 16th Century and few written sources are still available.[2] I did try my luck on a few records that date from this period, but without result. None of them, even in those records where I expected at least a short allusion, mentioned the event.

It could have been her relatives who commissioned the decorated wooden panel, it could also have been made (and almost certain it was altered) in later times. But, it survived. In the late 18th century, around 1780, a drawing[3] was made of it, showing the panel with the text as given above and on the top, in the tympanum: A red heart. It is recorded again in a manuscript dating from about 1797 when it still hangs in the church of Arnemuiden.[4] About a century later it is still present in the church, but now it no longer hangs up, but has been put on a little table.[5] During the last century it must have somehow disappeared, for no recordings are made of it anymore. To be absolutely sure I visited the local museum, hoping that perhaps it was still there in a dusty little corner. There I spoke to a man who also happened to be a churchwarden for the last 25 years. Unfortunately he didn?t know about it and had never seen anything that could have resembled either the panel or the remnants of it.

Whomever was responsible for having it made, and whatever happened to it, at least it was publicly displayed in the church for 300 years, where it served as a reminder to the sad event and, quite possibly, as a warning to those who enjoyed themselves a bit too much during the annual fair.

Short as it may be, with this blog post her tragic death is again brought back to memory.
So, please, when you visit the fair, think of poor Adriana for a moment and have a drink to her memory. And when you pick up a rifle, think twice?

[1] In Middle Dutch and early Modern Dutch the word ?Vrienden? can have the connotation of both friends and family. It is, however, likely that she was visiting family. From 1579 until his death in 1595 Mr. Jan Bogaert or Boogaart is mentioned in various records as a dignitary of the small town of Arnemuiden. He?s recorded as a magistrate (?schepen?), a surgeon and also mentioned as the owner of both a brewery and (small) salt refinery. In 1581 he is mentioned as the brother of Geleijn Bogaert, who could very well be the mentioned Ghislenus Boogaart, father of Adriana.

[2] A lot of archives in the direct area are lost, due to a number of reasons. Others weren?t kept that detailed yet. With the start of the 17th Century, the archives in general become more elaborate but especially on matters like this.

NFL bumps back time of 5 Steelers games


By Mark Kaboly

Published: Thursday, June 28, 2012, 1:42?p.m.
Updated 6 hours ago

The NFL announced that kickoff times for Sunday afternoon doubleheader games on CBS and FOX will be moved from 4:15 p.m. to 4:25 p.m.

Five Steelers games will be affected, including Week 2 against the New York Jets at Heinz Field.

The other games moved back 10 minutes are away: Sept. 23 at Oakland; Nov. 4 at New York Giants; Dec. 2 at Baltimore; and Dec. 16 at Dallas.

The 4:05 p.m. kickoff time for games not on the doubleheader network will remain unchanged.

In researching the kickoff time shift, the NFL analyzed games from the 2009-11 seasons and found that 44 games required part of the audience to be switched to a mandatory doubleheader game kickoff.

With a 4:25 p.m. kickoff time, that number that would have been reduced by 66 percent to only 15 games.

THE JEWISH CONTROL OVER THE ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRIES

Like I have said in previous articles, the area in which I get the most resistance from readers of my website is the music industry. People want to believe that there are rock'n'roll rebels who speak for us and stand up for our rights, like they supposedly did in the 1960's. Therefore, the music industry must be the oasis in the vast desert where corruption, greed and power otherwise rules.?

Then, when I point out that the music industry (and the art and entertainment industry as a whole) is one of the major Illuminati assets and one of the most important ones, I get furious emails from people who think I am way out of line.

But they also have to have a plan after they have killed off most of us, so the surviving population can be easily controlled. This is done by feeding us with propaganda 24 hours/day. You can't get away from it, unless you build a cabin in the woods and live without electricity and connection with the rest of the society.

So let us think about it. If you were them, what would you think would be the most valuable industries to control in order to brainwash the world as a whole, besides controlling the banks and the money flow? Well, that would be the Media, wouldn't it? And with Media I mean not only the TV News and the newspapers. With Media I also mean the movie industry, the art industry and the music industry. With other words; every media that can reach millions of people at once.

If the Illuminati did not think this way, they would be very stupid, and you can blame them for a lot of things, but they are not stupid. So therefore, we have to assume they own the music and movie industries as well, right? At least it makes sense. And if they own these industries, do you think they would allow true rebels to influence the world population, unless of course, when it on occasion suits their Agenda?

So now we have logically figured out that the art industries are owned by the Illuminati Mafia, which consists of the Talmudic Jews and their puppets. So far, this is only assumptions. How can we prove that the art industry is owned by those same people?

This is not hard to do. It only takes a few minutes of research and the pieces come together. Take a look at the following; here below is a list of the seven major players of the Media. And guess what? They are all Jews.

Today, seven Jewish Americans run the vast majority of US television networks, the printed press, the Hollywood movie industry, the book publishing industry, and the recording industry. Most of these industries are bundled into huge media conglomerates run by the following seven individuals:


THE ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY ~ DOMINATED BY JEWS

Now we know for a fact that the major Entertainment Industries, the ones that count, are owned by Jews, exclusively, but it doesn't stop there.?

The Entertainment Industry (which I from here on out for simplicity will call the Industry, and by that I mean the Mainstream Media, the Movie Industry, the Music Industry and the Art Industry, if not otherwise specified) seems to favor Jewish artists, producers and managers.?

This is just the tip of the iceberg; the list goes on and on. Then if you include classical musicians, jazz musicians and film producers, the list will be very long. To further prove my point, here is a statement from Leonard Bernstein's (world leading Jewish conductor) biographer, Joan Peyser:

"The more one knows about Bernstein, the more complicated the portrait is of him as a Jew. Capable of working productively with anti-Semites, he still holds a soft spot in his heart for fellow Jews, whom he says he finds superior to all others. 'He is so adamant about music being Jewish,' [conductor and composer Gunther Schuller says]. 'It is important to him that a composer is a Jew, that a performer is a Jew. He told me that Triplum, my composition, has a Jewish soul. That is meant as a compliment. I am not a Jew. When Lenny says, 'You can almost be Jewish,' that is considered by him to be one of the most supreme of compliments.'" [PEYSER, J., 1987, p. 409] [8]

Jazz music in particular was dominated by Jewish artists to the extent that almost all famous jazz musicians of its time were Jews. The Jewish Tin Pan Alley monopoly of the music business was solid for decades. As H.F. Mooney notes:

"By 1941, the virtual monopoly of the ASCAP (American Society of Composers Authors, and Publishers, organized in 1914), which had practically protected New York's ascendancy in the music market, was broken by legal judgment. The consequent opening of broadcasting and recording channels to non-ASCAP composers and publishers, many of them unknowns outside the conventional musical establishment of Tin Pan Alley ... marked the end of an era of increasingly urbane New York composers.These had been heavily Jewish ...

JEWISH ORIGINS OF ROCK'N'ROLL AND RHYTHM & BLUES? And rock and roll? The Jewish foundation continued. "The most famous and important [rhythm and blues disc jockey]," note Steve Chapple and Reebee Garofalo, "was ... Alan Freed, the father of Rock 'n' Roll ... Freed was credited with co-writing fifteen rock and roll hits including Chuck Berry's 'Maybelline,' but he did little more than promote any of them." [CHAPPLE, p. 56-57] A biography of Freed notes that "by 1956, there was no bigger name in rock and roll than Freed, except Elvis Presley [who was Jewish as well, editor's note]." [JACKSON, p. ix] (Another of America's best known early disc jockeys was also Jewish, Murray the K, aka Murray Kaufman).[10]

As Syd Nathan, the owner of King Records, once said, "You want to be in the record business? The first thing you learn is that everyone is a liar." [WADE, p. 60] "The early rhythm and blues companies were run by a fraternity of Jews ... They were tough and they were shrewd ~ some say unscrupulous ~ and they were alternately loved, despised, respected, and feared.

The deep bond of these cultural outsiders prompted one gentile, mild rebuke in his voice, to comment that 'Yiddish was the second language of the record business." [COHODAS, N., p. 3-4, 2000] [10]

There are a number of artists who have been cheated by greedy Jewish Record Companies, owned by Jewish businessmen. Many of those victims have been black, but far from everybody.

A few examples of musicians whom have been ripped off by the Jewish Music Industry where some of them filed lawsuits are: Little Richard, Chuck Berry, Howlin' Wolf, Muddy Waters, Willie Dixon and Bo Diddley.

The Rolling Stones once sued their Jewish manager, Allen Klein for $29 million. [SANDFORD, p. 164] Christopher Sandford notes that

"By midsummer [Rolling Stones singer Mick] Jagger was unable to mention his manager's name [Klein] calmly. Later he gave an interview in which he stated, 'Half the money I've made has been stolen. Most artists in show business suffer the same kind of thing... It's all the hangers-on and parasites. There are very few honest people in the profession." [SANDFORD, p. 139]

But the Talmud says very distinctly that for a Jew, it is absolutely fine to cheat and lie to a goy (non-Jew) and that you don't have to pay him wages owed him for work. Here are some passages from this lovely book, which states that Jews are human and non-Jews are not. Non-Jews are nothing but cattle and should be treated as such:

O.K. to Cheat Non-Jews. A Jew need not pay a Gentile ("Cuthean", which means a non-Jew) the wages owed him for work ~ Sanhedrin 57a

"Jews always have to try to deceive Non-Jews" ~- Zohar I, 168a

"Every Jew is allowed to use lies and perjury to bring a Non-Jew to ruin" ~ Babba Kama 113a

Moving to the Folk Music era of the 1960s, we see that this too was totally Jew dominated. Israel Young ran the Folklore Center in New York's Greenwich Village in the 1960s. Fred Weintraub owned the well-known Bitter End nightclub. Manny Roth ran Cafe Wha?.?

Among the prominent Jewish folksingers of the era were Bob Dylan, Phil Ochs, Jack Elliott, Peter Yarrow (of Peter, Paul, and Mary), David Blue (Cohen), and two (Fred Hellerman and Ronnie Gilbert) of the four Weavers. Ballad singer Leonard Cohen had a grandfather who was the first president of the Canadian Jewish Congress.?

Moe Asch (whose father, Sholem, was "the most widely read Yiddish writer of the twentieth century") [GOLDSMITH, P., p. 1] headed Folkway Records, the label that released recordings by Woody Guthrie, Pete Seeger (manager: Harold Levanthal), Doc Watson, Black blues artist Leadbelly, Josh White, Black poet Langston Hughes, and ethnic performers from around the world. (Woody Guthrie's wife, Marjorie Gleenblatt Mazia, was Jewish, and their child, Cathy Ann, was "raised as a Jew." [POLLAK, O, p. 12])

Guthrie even lived with Marjorie in a Jewish neighborhood in Coney Island. Asch got into the recording business with a connection to David Sarnoff, the eventual head of NBC-RCA. [GOLDSMITH, P., p. 60] A later version of Folkways was Verve/Folkways, which featured Tim Hardin, Richard Havens, and Jewish artists Laura Nyro and Janis Ian. (Nyro's original name was Nigro, and her name was changed for fear that people might call her "Negro.") [KING, T., 2000, p. 73]?

Bob Dylan is a full-blooded Jew; both his parents were Jewish, and his real name is Robert Zimmerman. The manager who can take most credit for making Dylan known is probably the Jew Albert Grossman, a ruthless businessman with bad reputation. He later became the owner of Bearsville Records. [12] Grossman helped George Wein [Jew] organize the first Newport Folk Festival, in 1959, a festival which became big in folk music.?

It is interesting to see how Bob Dylan surrounds himself with Jewish friends and musicians, such as Allen Ginsberg, Mike Bloomfield, Tiny Tim and Robbie Robertson to name a few. He even nominated Ginsberg to being the greatest poet ever, and has often praised Jewish artists and musicians before non-Jews.?

The Talmud says it is perfectly okay to cheat and play around with goyim (non-Jews) and rip them off. Dylan is no exception. He stole, cheated and betrayed wherever he could in the beginning of his career to reach the fame he so obsessively desired.?

He used famous musicians like Joan Baez to boost his career, even had a love affair with her, and then when he didn't need her anymore, in Talmudic Jewish manner, he abandoned her and married a Jewish woman, Sara Lowndes. Moreover, he stole songs and ideas from other musicians and recorded them as his own. Examples are "Blowing in the Wind", the special version he recorded of the traditional song "House of the Rising Sun" and "Baby Let Me Follow You Down".?

He also borrowed a whole record collection from a person to use as inspiration, without giving it back. Not until the owner, together with a big guy knocked on Dylan's door to get the record collection back, Dylan returned it, avoiding to get beaten up by smooth talking the tough guy. [13]

Early in Dylan's career, "when a girlfriend's mother challenged his lies and said she thought Zimmerman was his real name, he called her an anti-Semite, as if a mere description of the truth was bigotry." [RUBIN, p. 94]

Dylan in T'fillin, CIRCA 1971

Dylan, who early in his career hid his Jewish past and made up various lies (he was from Oklahoma, etc.) about his background, nonetheless joined the Jewish fraternity house at the University of Minnesota in 1959, Sigma Alpha Mu. [SCADUTO, p. 26] After becoming rich and famous singing about social justice, in the 1980s, "Dylantologist" A. J. Weberman declared that the famous singer

"is an ultra-Zionist. He is doing the tour to raise money for Israel. He has given large sums of money to Israel in the name of Abraham Zimmerman." [SPITZ, p. 430]

Newsweek and Time each reported that Dylan had indeed donated sums to the Jewish state, and even the far right-wing Jewish Defense League. [SPITZ, p. 407] A biographer, Anthony Scaduto, noted earlier, in 1971,

"At this writing, Dylan's search for personal salvation seems to be coming around full circle, back to the religion of his fathers. Bob has started to study Judaism, and Hebrew. Dylan, who gets so Gemini-enthused about everything, has made several trips to Israel in the last year to 'sniff the breeze' as his friends put it. He has reportedly donated some of his funds to help support at least one kibbutz there.?

Folksinger Theo Bikel [also Jewish, and a Zionist activist] adds:?

'Dylan has told me that Israel appears to be one of the few places left in the world where life has any meaning.'?

He has even attended several meetings of the militant Jewish Defense League. The JDL's head, Meir Kahane, [charged by many, including Jews, as a racist and fascist] will say only that Dylan has 'come around a couple times to see what we're all about' and has promised to donate money to the organization. Dylan refuses to discuss it." [SCADTO, p. 274]

Another Jewish entrepreneur, Maynard Solomon, headed another prominent folk-oriented record label, Vanguard, which featured Joan Baez, Buffy St. Marie, Eric Anderson, among others.?

Another folk label in Chicago, Flying Fish, was founded by Bruce Kaplan. Jewish popular musical performers are many and varied, including the Beastie Boys ("widely castigated for glorifying sex and violence") [ANDERSON, 1991, p. 173], Bette Midler, Billy Joel, Barry Manilow, Randy Newman, Carly Simon (one of the heirs to the Simon-Schuster publishing house fortune), Helen Reddy, Lesley Gore, David Lee Roth of Van Halen, Lou ("Take a Walk on the Wild Side") Reed, [BELL, I., 6-1-93, p. 12] and Mountain's Leslie [Weinstein] West.?

Donald Fagen co-founded Steely Dan. Marty Friedman of Megadeth is Jewish, as is Peter Green of Fleetwood Mac, Marty Balin of Jefferson Airplane, Marc Knopfler of Dire Straits, Paul Stanley (Stanley Eisen) and Gene Simmons (born Chaim Whitz in Haifa, Israel) of Kiss, Perry Farrell (Perry Bernstein; son of a diamond dealer) of Jane's Addiction, Kevin Dubrow (lead singer of Quiet Riot), Slash of Guns 'n Roses, Geddy Lee (of Rush ~ born Gar Lee Weinrib), Eric Bloom (lead singer of Blue Oyster Cult), Robbie Robertson, Warren Zevon, Jeff Beck, Mick Jones (of the Clash), Gavin Rossdale (head of Bush), Jay (Blatt) and the Americans, Marc Bolan of T-Rex, Manfred Mann (Lubowitz), Norman Greenbaum, Phranc (a Jewish lesbian folksinger), and Howard Kaylan and Mark Volman of the Turtles.?

And on and on. Jewish interest in the subject notes that ukulele-rooted Tiny Tim's mother was Jewish, Donovan's mother was Jewish, Cyndi Lauper's father is Jewish, Country Joe MacDonald's mother is Jewish, Twisted Sister's Dee Snider's father was Jewish and on and on. [JEWHOO, 2000; BOUCHER, G., 4-17-01, p. 62; TAYLOR, L., 12-27-00, p. F5]]?

Even the 1998 "Eurovision Song Contest winner" ~ featuring an event watched by 100 million people in 33 countries ~ was Israeli transsexual Dana International, born Yaran Cohen).

Not Jewish? Want to make it in the music business? Enhance your chances by learning Yiddish:?

"Even gentiles learned to salt their language with pinches of Yiddish, the industry's vernacular. Courtney Love, not long before her own major label debut at Geffen Records, began boning up with the help of Leo Rosten's The Joys of Yiddish. 'I'm going to blow the minds of all those shemedricks at the record company,' Courtney said. She would even sometimes refer to her dispute with Kat [of the all-female band Babes in Toyland] over who was the first to wear a baby-doll dress onstage as 'that shmatte' controversy.'" [KARLEN, N., 1994, p. 146]?

More Jews: The magazine "Bible" of rock and roll music, Rolling Stone, was founded by Jewish entrepreneur Jann Wenner. Wenner is also "the single most important person behind" Cleveland's Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum. [HINCKLEY, D., p. 9] Joel Siegel, later prominent as a film critic, was also "TV's first rock and roll reporter." [SLEWINSKI, C., 3-23-99, p. 102]?

"To my surprise," writes Jewish author Michael Billig, "song after well-known pop song, revealed itself to 'Jewish music,' from [Elvis] Presley to the soft sounds of the Drifters to [producer] Phil Spector. So much of the rebellion-music which I had loved in my youth and which seemed to be a window to a foreign, dangerous world, turned out to be a product of familiar surroundings. Surprise was mixed with delight." [ARNOT, C., 10-4-2000, p. 6]

What about the Beatles, the Liverpool group who changed the world with their music? Oh yes, they had close Jewish connections as well. Brian Epstein, their agent/manager and Sid Bernstein, their promoter, were both Jewish.

Brian [Epstein] signed over to Dick James [a music publisher] 50 percent of Lennon and McCartney's publishing fees for nothing. It made him wealthy beyond imagination in eighteen months." [BROWN/GAINES, 1983, p. 186]?

After Epstein's death, in 1969 James sold the rights to the Beatles songs from under them. "It was the single most contentious deal arising from the Epstein-James era. "The Beatles were angry at what they regarded as betrayal." [COLEMAN, p. 306] Marc Elliot notes that James sold "his interest in Northern Songs to the notorious [British Jewish media mogul] Lew Grade, known in the film industry as Low Grade." [ELLIOT, p. 158] Epstein also had "good communication" with Grade's brother, Bernard Delfont, "one of the czars of London show business." [COLEMAN, p. 245-246]

WOODSTOCK

The landmark 1969 Woodstock Musical Festival was the entrepreneurial investment of four young Jews: Joel Rosenman, John Roberts (heir to a pharmaceutical fortune), Artie Kornfeld, and Michael Lang.?

The person hired to pull the whole project together was Stanley Goldstein. Mel Laurence (born Melvin Bernard Lachs) was also the Director of Operations for the festival creators, Woodstock Ventures. Bert Cohen, of Concert Hall Publications, soon joined the production team for various tasks. [SPITZ, 1979]?

The first employee of Woodstock ventures was Rene Levine, a bookkeeper and another Jew, Alex Jaffee, was the company's accountant. In a book chapter called "Buying Off the Underground," Joel Rosenman recalls when he and others of the Woodstock Ventures investment team went to Greenwich Village's East Village Other "counterculture" newspaper to buy them off, guaranteeing that prominent members of that anti-capitalist community wouldn't cause problems with the economic exploitation of the supposedly anti-materialist Love Generation.?

Famed radical (and Jewish) agitator Abbie Hoffman demanded $10,000 from Woodstock Ventures, "or else that fucking festival you guys are planning is gonna end up around your ass." [ROSENMAN/ROBERTS/PILPEL, p. 102].?

The disastrous 1999 Woodstock Festival was also headed by Michael Lang, and John Scher. It ended in rioting, vandalism, injuries, arrests, and sexual crimes. [MORSE, S., 7-27-99]

Non-Jewish musical stars, caught in the Judeocentric web of the musical world, often support Jewish/Israeli ethnocentric interests on behalf of their Jewish friends and managers. Among the old Geffen stable, for example, in 2002 a news item noted that Don Henley of the Eagles was "donating the $7,900 from the sale [of his guitar at auction] to the Jewish Federation of Greater Dallas for use in supporting Israel and Jewish organizations." [TOP FORTY CHARTS, 6-12-02]?

That same year, the Jewish Week wondered:

"What?s one of the world?s greatest rock stars doing at a Jewish benefit dinner? The answer came Monday night when Bono, the voice and wordsmith driving the fabulously popular band U2, became the first rock and roll personality to receive the Humanitarian Laureate Award from the Simon Wiesenthal Center." [Jewish Week, 11-22-02]

(That same year, the Israeli newspaper Ha'aretz noted that the new Wisenthal "tolerance" Center in Jerusalem was built on a Muslim cemetery).

In the rock and roll world which is so heavily Jewish, there are apparently different levels of what is considered to be morally offensive, including the usual admonition: Thou Shalt Not Offend Jews (Others, especially Christianity? ~ No problem).?

As Leah Garchik wrote in 2002, "Marilyn Manson reveals in Rolling Stone's new book 'Tattoo Nation: Portraits of Celebrity Body Art" that Madonna's manager, who was thinking of signing Manson, called Manson's manager to inquire about whether the rocker had a swastika among his many tattoos. 'Of course not,' said Manson's manager. 'One of the guys in the band is Jewish.' 'Oh, OK,' said Madonna's manager. 'We don't have a problem with the Satanism, but we can't deal with any kind of Nazism.'" [GARCHIK, L., 11-7-02, p. D14]


PUNK ROCK

The "godfather of punk," manager and "mastermind" of the seminal "punk" band ~ the Sex Pistols, was Great Britain's Malcolm McLaren. He was also the manager of the New York Dolls, Adam Ant, and Boy George. According to Sex Pistol lead singer Johnny Rotten, his manager was "the most evil man alive." [HARRIS, M., 8-19-94, p. 11; SHAW, D., 12-16-99, p. 5]?

McLaren "was brought up by his maternal grandmother, Mrs. Corre, a formidable woman from a very rich Sephardic Jewish family." [BARBER, L., 12-22-91, p. 8]?

The anarchistic Sex Pistols, notes the London Independent, were "brought into being quite cynically by Malcolm McLaren as an advertising gimmick to promote sales of the fetishistic clothes and other devices designed and sold by himself and Vivienne Westwood." [GRAHAM-DIXON, 8-19-95, p. 2]?

The Ramones are also a candidate for the most influential punk band. The head of the Ramones, Joey Ramone ~ born Jeffrey Hyman ~ is also Jewish. [TAYLOR, L., 12-27-00, p. F5]

RAP MUSIC

The Jew Howie Klein founded the "punk" rock label 415. Joseph Heller, formerly of Heller-Fischel, booked acts like Styx, the Electric Light Orchestra, Boz Scaggs, and a variety of others. "He represented top-drawer rock talent like Van Morrison, the Guess Who, Marvin Gaye, War, Elton John and Pink Floyd." [SNYDER, N., 2-19-01]?

Stretching out as dangerously as possible to make a buck, Heller eventually gravitated towards a relative goldmine in the Black ghetto-based "gangsta rap." He cofounded Ruthless Records and managed the pioneer rap group NWA (Niggaz With Attitude) from early in their careers. The musical genre of gangsta rap, notes Jory Farr, "thrives on misogyny, as well as homophobic and race-baiting rage ... [It] was the perfect music for [a] lifestyle loaded down ... with warnings of betrayal, murder, revenge, and a short life." [FARR, p. 70]

"I believed that rap would become the most important music of the nineties," said Heller, "... [But] you can't sell two million rap records to kids in the inner city. That's a way to sell 200,000. You have to market it to the white kids." [FARR, p. 68, 71]?

Heller hired Ira Selsky as his corporate attorney and an Israeli-born security chief named Michael Klein to ward off angry, exploited Blacks who quite literally walked into his office threatening to kill him. Rap star Ice Cube even threatened Heller in one of his recorded songs, prompting the Anti-Defamation League to flag it as anti-Semitic. Ruthless Records released a Jewish rap duo called Blood of Abraham. As Chuck D, the lead vocalist for the Black rap group Public Enemy, noted,

"There's no way to get trained on the seamier elements of the music business being on the street ~ that element is reserved for boardrooms." [D, CHUCK, p. 85]

Those in Chuck D's reminiscences about "boardroom" behavior include Lyor Cohen (manager of Rush Productions, and an Israeli); Al Teller, an executive at MCA whose parents died in the Holocaust; Steve Ralbovsky of CBS; Bill Adler (a publicist); and Rick Rubin of Def Jam Records. (Jewish diamond dealer Jacob Arabo has made the news as a favored jewelry merchant to the Black rap crowd that seeks to symbolize wealth and power, or, as the New York Times put it, "the jeweler who gives most of today's leading rappers their shine." [CENTURY, p. 1]?


SO WHAT DOES THIS ALL MEAN?

If you have followed me and read this article so far, at least you must have asked yourself why there are so many Jews in power within the Industry. It can't be a coincidence.?

Is it just that Jews are better businessmen than us 'goyim'?

This is what we hear over and over as an explanation to why there are so many Jews in charge of big Businesses.?

We learn that it is in their blood, and that it is nothing wrong with that.

It is in their blood, alright, that's for sure. It would all be fine and dandy if these business-minded people played it fair. So why are these Jews in high position (and even ordinary Jewish musicians in some cases) so unreliable, unethical and immoral??

I guess we have already answered that question to some extent. They ARE business-minded and they follow the Talmud! They believe it's God's will that they act like this and treat the rest of us like cattle.?

But which God? Most Jews believe their God is Jehovah, like it says in the Torah (the Old Testament). But that is just the every-day Jew on the street.?

Like any secret society, Judaism is no exception; you only know what you need to know. If you want to get a clue to who the REAL God in Judaism is, maybe Harold Wallace Rosenthal, a Talmudic Jew, can give you some answers. In the 1970's, Rosenthal was interviewed by Walter White Jr., and when the interview was over, Mr. White was shaken and nauseated due to what he had just heard Mr. Rosenthal confesses without any remorse. You can read the whole article here, but I warn you ~ it is very disturbing reading.?

However, to you whom already know that these people are using the Talmud in their daily life, this doesn't come as too much of a surprise, although EVERYBODY should read "The Rosenthal Interview", nonetheless.

You will hear Mr. Rosenthal say that what the average Jew doesn't know is that the God in Judaism is Lucifer, and that the Jews are Lucifer's chosen people.

Then, on a deeper level, of course, we can discuss who Lucifer really is, but that is subject to other articles, already posted elsewhere on my website.

Anyway, if we agree to that this world is run by a secret organization that we for simplicity call the Illuminati, and there is overwhelming evidence for that, then we know that these people do everything they can to control business, politics, education and entertainment.?

That is the easiest way to streamline the masses into thinking in certain directions that they want us to think. So to be able to find out who is controlling us, we just follow the money and look at who is running things.?

To our amazement, we find out that this world is run by Talmudic Jews, whom do everything they can to create a slave society with them in charge over us, the cattle.?

Does this sound anti-Semitic??

For those who don't know better and are still buying into the Programming, it might, but if we look a little deeper, two things come to show:

1.

There is clear evidence that Jews are running the show, and the truth is the truth. Call it anti-Semitic if you like.

2.

The Jews we are talking about are not even Semites! They are all descending from the old Khazar tribes and have nothing to do with the OT Jews and "God's chosen people". The Semites are, according to the highly authoritative Oxford Universal Dictionary, 1944 (p. 1838) the people belonging to the race of mankind which includes most of the peoples mentioned in Genesis 10 as descended from Shem, son of Noah, as the Arabs, Hebrews, Assyrians and Arameans, and speaking a Semitic language as their native tongue.

Most people would answer the question whether the modern Jew is of Hebrew or Semitic origin with a clear "yes"! Wrong! Most Jews in modern society have nothing to do with the ancient Hebrews of biblical times. For decades we never thought of even questioning the basic assumption that the modern day Jew is a Semite. [14]

So why do you think that the Anti Defamation League (ADL) and other "Jewish Protection Organizations" go berserk as soon as anybody mentions the word Jew in a negative context??

Is there ANY word in ANY language that is more charged than the word Jew??

I don't know, I haven't researched that, but wouldn't be surprised if the answer is 'no'. And by common sense, where you get the most attacks and most resistance is where the 'secrets dwell'.?

Here is something they really want to hide, and they do it by calling those whom are about to find out the truth anti-Semitic. The truth is that the real anti-Semites are the Jews themselves, because they are attacking such people as the Arabs all the time ~ the real Semites as we saw earlier.
?

HOW THE MUSIC INDUSTRY WORKS

The way the Industry works has been covered by me in previous articles, like "Mind Control in the Field of Art" and I highly recommend that you read it, and also all other articles I have posted in the "I Sold My Soul to Rock'n'Roll and Mind Control" section of my website. You who doubted me may now be able to restudy this section with new eyes, and perhaps you will find that it makes more sense.

I will not repeat myself here, due to that I have covered this subject in details in the above articles, but rely on that you do your own further research there and elsewhere too for that matter.


IN SUMMARY

There is no doubt that the Entertainment Industries are run by the Illuminati Talmudic Jews and that their Agenda is clear. The Industries are run by criminals with two main purposes in mind:

1.

To make lots of money with whatever methods available. Nothing is holy and murder is accepted, if necessary.

2.

To manipulate people into accepting the New World Order and a One World Government. This is done in different overt and covert ways, also covered in the above sections of my website as mentioned under "How the Music Industry Works" here above. Only artists they can control will be promoted and accepted, or artists that they can make a big buck out of and later conform or waste. If dropping them makes them "talk", or if a 'bad situation' is eminent, there is always 'other means' to take care of the uncomfortable situation (read John Lennon and 2PAK).

I hope this article has made things a little clearer and as always, don't take my word for it. I strongly encourage you to do your own research if you still don't think this is evidence enough.

ENDNOTES:

[3] ^? Here I want to make an important disclaimer: Although this planet is run by the Jewish Cabal, I want to emphasize that this article is NOT an attack on the average Jew on the street, who has no part in this plot against humanity. I am talking about the Talmudic Jews, the Khazar Jews, who are the Power Elite, running this planet behind the scenes. This is a very important statement to make. I know for a fact that the 'average Jew', who becomes aware of this plot,?reacts in the same way as you and I do ~ they strongly oppose it! [13] ^ Bob Dylan: Chronicles Vol. 1

Alleged conversation between John Todd and David Crosby:

Todd: "Do they still bring the master [recording] to the Temple...and conjure demons into the master? Is the purpose of rock music still to use witchcraft, cast spells...?"

Crosby: "Of course. You know that, Lance."

?JUST A LIST:

Don?t get your knickers in a twist over the following list dear readers. This is simply a list of musicians, singers, musical entertainers we have known and in many cases loved over the years.? No more no less.? Some played a part. Some had real talent. Some were plagiarists. A few were betrayed and a few betrayed us. Some of these folks their music is just so fine that it doesn't matter who they are but they are the minority. Here I think of Robbie Robertson's work with the Red Road Ensemble "Music for The Native Americans".? It's just a list.

Philadelphia Parks & Recreation Introduces The Fairmount Park ...

Philadelphia just got even more bike-friendly with the launch of a bike rental service with three pickup locations in the Fairmount Park system. (Photo by J. Smith for GPTMC)

Exciting summer news: Earlier this month, Mayor Nutter, Philadelphia Parks & Recreation and the Fairmount Park Conservancy hosted a grand opening ceremony for Wheel Fun Rentals, a brand new bike rental service for Philadelphia.

Residents of and visitors to Philadelphia can now rent Fuji hybrid two-wheels, surrey bikes, tandem bikes, deuce coupe bikes and Segways for a healthier, faster way to explore the city.

Pickup locations, placed throughout the city, are convenient to a wide variety of people: Lloyd Hall on Boathouse Row, Love Park and the Bathey House/Trolley Car Caf? in East Falls.

The new bike rental service is just another feather in Mayor Nutter?s cap in terms of supporting the cycling community. He?s also spearheaded the continual addition of bike lanes and installation of 350 bike racks across the city.

Proceeds from Wheel Fun Rentals benefit Philadelphia?s parks, contributing to park and trail renovations and projects along the Schuylkill River Trail and Kelly Drive.

Another bonus: Wheel Fun Rentals is employing teens from the the Philadelphia City Rowing program and Neighborhood Bike Works program, a local nonprofit that aims to increase opportunities for urban youth in underserved neighborhoods through bicycling. The teens will be able to apply what they learn through the Neighborhood Bike Works program in their job at Wheel Fun Rentals.

Weather alerts coming soon to smartphone near you

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) ? Millions of smartphone users will soon begin receiving text messages about severe weather from a sophisticated government system that can send a blanket warning to mobile devices in the path of a dangerous storm.

The National Weather Service's new Wireless Emergency Alerts system offers a new way to warn Americans about menacing weather, even if they are nowhere near a television, radio or storm sirens.

Beginning Thursday, the system will notify people about approaching tornadoes, hurricanes, blizzards and other threats. When a warning is issued for a specific county, a message of no more than 90 characters will cause late-model smartphones in that area to sound a special tone and vibrate.

Users do not have to sign up for the service or pay for the text message. And people who prefer not to get the warnings can opt out of the system.

"These alerts will make sure people are aware of any impending danger and provide them with the information needed so they can be safe until the threat is over," said Amy Storey, spokeswoman for CTIA-The Wireless Association, an industry trade group that helped set up the system.

The system does not yet work with all smartphones or in all areas. It is part of a broader alert network the Federal Emergency Management Agency launched in April that can also send public-safety warnings from the president and participating state and local governments. But the weather service estimates that more than 90 percent of the messages will be about storms.

The weather warnings will include tornadoes, hurricanes, typhoons, tsunamis, flash floods, extreme winds, blizzards and ice and dust storms. Designers were concerned about overloading users with too much information, so they deliberately limited the messages to warnings, not watches, and excluded severe thunderstorm warnings, weather service spokeswoman Susan Buchanan said.

Wireless carriers serving almost 97 percent of U.S. subscribers have agreed to participate, including the biggest nationwide companies ? AT&T Inc., Verizon Wireless, Sprint Nextel Corp. and T-Mobile USA. Each of the four offers at least some phones capable of receiving emergency alerts, with more on the way.

Sprint, Verizon and T-Mobile say they offer the service nationwide. AT&T only offers it in New York City, Washington, D.C., and Portland, Ore., at the moment. Spokesman Michael Balmoris said the company will add additional markets over time but declined to say which ones or when.

Government officials don't have a good handle on exactly how many capable devices are already in use, but Damon Penn, assistant administrator for national continuity programs at FEMA, said the number is probably in the millions.

He said smartphone users should check with their carriers to find out whether service is available and if their device is able to use it. He said many people own phones equipped to get the new alerts but don't know it yet.

Sprint spokeswoman Crystal Davis said most Sprint smartphones now in use can receive the alerts thanks to recent automatic software upgrades. All new models will be equipped, as will all new tablet devices.

One unanswered question is when the legions of Apple iPhone users will be able to receive alerts. Buchanan said iPhones are supposed to join the system in the fall, but she didn't know if that means only new iPhones, or if software upgrades will make older models capable, too. Representatives of Apple Inc., which is highly secretive about its product upgrades, did not respond to several messages seeking details.

FEMA's system carries three kinds of alerts: presidential alerts, which might deal with national security information such as terrorist attacks; imminent-threat alerts, which include weather warnings as well as public-safety messages from local authorities; and Amber Alerts issued by law enforcement agencies for kidnapped children.

Phone users can opt out of the imminent threat and Amber Alerts, usually just by changing their settings, but they can't opt out of presidential alerts.

Twenty-eight state or local emergency management agencies in about a dozen states are authorized to send imminent-threat alerts. Eighty-three others are in the process of getting certified.

Agencies have different ideas for the system. Minnesota is considering using it for chemical spills or nuclear accidents. In southern Florida's Miami-Dade County, it might convey hurricane evacuation information.

Curt Sommerhoff, Miami-Dade's director of emergency management, said the alerts will permit authorities to distribute urgent information to people in danger "whether you're a resident, employee or visitor."

On the streets of downtown Minneapolis, a couple of smartphone users were open to receiving the unsolicited weather and other warnings.

"I spend enough time reading junk on my phone that's of no real benefit to me. I might as well read something useful," said Bob Burns, a Minnetonka attorney sitting at a sidewalk cafe as he worked on both an iPhone and an iPad. "It's putting technology to use for the public good."

Dan Smith, a photographer from Reston, Va., who was in Minneapolis for a convention, said he was worried that the messages could became intrusive.

"It's like email. It used to be you only got stuff you wanted. Now you get 20 junk messages for every good one," Smith said.

The system doesn't use the satellite-based global positioning system to determine a phone's location. Participating carriers just send an alert out from every cell tower in the affected county, and capable smartphones pick it up.

So if a user from Minneapolis travels to Kansas City, Mo., that person would get local warnings for Kansas City, not their home city. That feature sets the system apart from weather apps that deliver information based on users' ZIP code but don't automatically update their locations when users travel.

Greg Carbin, the warning coordination meteorologist at the national Storm Prediction Center in Norman, Okla, said in a typical year most smartphone users will probably receive relatively few weather alerts.

"Even in those areas of the country where there's a lot of severe weather, the frequency with which you would be alerted is pretty low," Carbin said.

questions

Q: My husband and I found our home by visiting an open house. We love the home and the seller?s agent. Should we get a buyer?s agent or can we work with the seller?s agent?
?LBR, Elkridge, MD

A: The Seller?s agent is working for the seller. That agent is trying to get the most money for the seller. A buyer agent will try to get you in for the least amount of money and will keep everything you say confidential. If you work with the seller?s agent and some do, that agent cannot provide undivided loyalty! That agent cannot help you with price. Has the seller agent offered a buyer agent to help? It?s up to you! Good luck.

A: You can work with the seller?s agent, but be aware that the agent may not necessarily be working in your best interests. By definition, a seller?s agent has a fiduciary obligation to get the best price and terms for the seller. As a result, you may end up paying more for the home than you would if you had your own agent representing your best interests. On the other hand, since the seller?s agent is apparently the ?procuring cause,? he/she may not be obligated to pay your agent?s fee. As a result of that, you could end up paying your agent out of pocket. For future reference, the best scenario for a buyer is to hire a buyer?s agent before looking at homes.
Phil Lunnon is a Realtor? with Lunnon Realty in Lakewood, CO.

A: Do yourself a favor and hire your own agent to represent you. Buyers and sellers are sometimes confused about the role of a real estate agent in their transaction. They may not understand exactly who the agent represents and real estate agency (Broker) relationship. Many states demand that agents give buyers and sellers an ?Agency Disclosure? form to sign up front before a transaction is started or offer is written. This form is not a contract or an agreement, it simply disclosures the various types of possible agency relationships that may exist. It is very important that you read the disclosure to better understand it and all that is involved in ?Agency?. In this way you will be able to determine what type of agency relationship will work best for you.

Single Agency vs. Dual Agency Generally, buyers agents who represent buyers are operating in a single agency capacity as a buyer?s agent and seller?s agents who represent sellers are operating in a single agency capacity as a listing agent. Agents who represent clients under single agency owe a ?fiduciary responsibility? to their client. Agents are not allowed to share confidential information with the other party or the other party?s representative. Single agency agents are bound to use care and due diligence while performing their duties, disclose all material facts and above all be honest. Buyer?s agents and the buyer sometimes sign a buyer?s broker agreement, which lays out the duties and obligations of the agent. In some states, if buyers do not sign a buyer?s broker agreement with the agent, that agent does not represent the buyer but instead becomes a sub-agent of the seller. Sub-agents owe the same duties to the seller as the listing agent. Seller?s agents and the seller sign a listing agreement, which also lists the duties and obligations of the agent. Both listing agents and buyer?s agents owe the client loyalty, confidentiality, accountability and honesty. Some agents work as buyer?s agent with buyers and as a seller?s agent with sellers, (both sides of the fence) and some agents work solely as exclusive buyer?s agents and don?t take listings.

Dual Agency With Two Agents Because all real estate agents are licensed under a real estate broker, it is possible to work with one agent who is licensed by the same broker as the listing agent. This situation creates a dual agency. The agents could work at separate offices and be strangers to each other, but since they are licensed by the broker, they are still operating under dual agency if one agent represents the buyer and the other represents the seller. When first representing a new client an agent probably entered into a single agency relationship with their buyer. However, when the buyer chooses a home listed by that agent?s broker, the agent?s relationship with the buyer changes. Not all single agents make a point of informing their buyer of the change. The listing agent must also inform their seller of the newly created agency relationship as well. Remember, transparency is key. Dual agency must be agreed to in writing by both the buyer and the seller.

Be careful, laws vary from state to state. In California where I am licensed, exclusive buyer broker agreements contain language that allows dual agency, so most buyers don?t realize their buyer?s broker may be subject to dual agency. A listing agent who also represents the buyer is also a dual agent. When this occurs, the dual agent cannot operate in a fiduciary relationship with either party and must now treat both sellers and buyers with equal diligence. While they now cannot share confidential information, they are still able to give confidential advice to both parties.

Some buyers prefer to work solely with listing agents because they know the agent is receiving both the buyer and seller side of the commission. They think that the listing agent is more motivated to get an offer accepted when the buyer makes a purchase offer through the listing agent. They also may think that the dual agent might agree to further negotiate their real estate commission to increase the seller?s profit in hopes of getting their lower offer accepted.

I?ll always remember my first transaction. After signing up with the seller as their listing agent I proceeded to write an offer from a buyer visiting my first open house. I instantly became a dual agent. I managed to close a very lucrative deal in about 60 days with a very understanding seller and a buyer who thought they were making the best possible decision to have me represent them.

Personally I?ll never understand the thinking of buyers and sellers who freely fall into dual agency at the blink of an eye. To me it?s like hiring your wife?s divorce lawyer to represent you in the proceedings. But that?s just me.

FishPi sets course for the open sea, captained by a Raspberry Pi

Raspberry Pi's journey to reach owners has been a lengthy one, but Greg Holloway is preparing to send his board on a longer voyage -- one across the Atlantic. Nestled inside a tupperware tub, the RaspberryPi is the brains of FishPi, an autonomous vessel guided by GPS and a compass that measures 20 inches from bow to stern. Currently in proof-of-concept form, the craft uses a 40 mm rotating propeller and draws juice from batteries powered by a 130 watt solar panel. Producing kits for students, enthusiasts and professionals is the goal of the project, but testing and development are still on the docket. While the Linux-laden launch isn't ready for the high seas quite yet, you can sail to the source for the technical breakdown or check it out at the Nottingham Hackspace Raspberry Jam next month.
