Bulletins & Notes (bulletins have been moved. see menu)

Notes/Thoughts

Not currently posting to twitter account, sayata, but just keeping a check on it. The impression level is normally less than 200.  Usually a lot less.  And the click response to any links is mostly 0.  Even knowing that it is nearly worthless for me to tweet, it was still addictive, and it is time to end that.

My book sales have fallen to zero.  I am not driving any traffic.

Also note that AT&T provides me very slow DSL (which they could improve by simply putting on the correct pole to reduce distance but they refuse) and the level of graphics now on twitter’s timeline causes loading to hang & it is a hassle.

Promotional Book Material & Stories have been removed from this area for now.

Nothing was selling & no money = bad idea.

No hard feelings on my part and hope you don’t either.  Just is what it is.

I probably will start doing quotes and excerpts and promoting that way.

California wants to ban encrypted phones

Article:

http://www.cnet.com/au/news/california-wants-to-ban-encrypted-smartphones/

Because the law is too similar to a law that the peeping toms in New York are trying to pass, it is clear that some group is behind the attempt to get such laws passed.  On the Federal level Obama opposes the banning of encrypted phones, which is a good thing.

On the other hand FBI Director James Comey told senators that “the use of encryption is part of terrorist tradecraft now,” while New York Police Commissioner Bill Bratton warns that the authorities have “gone blind.”

Please, think a second.  Has law enforcement become too incompetent to place court approved eavesdropping equipment on suspects.  The only reason to oppose encrypted phones is that criminals in government want to make the average user more vulnerable to terrorists and other criminals.  The notion that police can’t do their job when phones are capable of encryption is a false narrative.  It is a foolish narrative.  POLICE CAN PLANT APPS & EAVESDROPPING BUGS on phones or through other devices/systems even if a phone uses encryption.

Tech companies support encryption not because of some nefarious motive.  They support encryption to protect their customers from criminals. It is not 100% protection because criminals can potentially use the same methods as police for their spying, but it does offer some protection.  And one has to hope when criminals outside of government use some of the police methods for spying, they will be caught.

The new Las Vegas parking fee shows what happens when competition disappears

Article:

http://www.latimes.com/business/hiltzik/la-fi-mh-the-new-las-vegas-parking-fee-20160120-column.html

I really don’t have much of an argument against their contention.  I am totally against monopoly powers in the marketplace.  There is no doubt mergers hurt the over all economy.

I will just say when it comes to entertainment & leisure money, people always have a choice. In this industry, even when a company thinks they have a blank check to treat customers anyway which they choose, customers can and often do say no. “I will go somewhere and do something else.”

In leisure, a company can be booming one day and boarding up the windows the next day.  Bad decisions can kill a company that quickly.  And a city built on tourism can fade into a fad people have forgotten just as quickly.

Samsung Phones in Apple Patent Case Banned

Article:

Samsung Phones in Apple Patent Case Banned

The misuse of patent law by the oligarchs is one of the major things that is screwing up the world economy.  The oligarch propagandist are always like, “Education, education, education is the way to help the lowly worker.”  But then education in regards to information that is patented, “Oh no, you can’t use that.”

Patent law needs to be changed.  On the one hand inventors need to be rewarded for their works to encourage research and development.  On the other hand though, the patents should not be allowed to be used to maintain monopolies in the marketplace.

Basically when a new product uses patents held by other companies there should be a formula on how the profits from that product is distributed.

I would suggest that 25% of the price of every product go into a patent fund.  Then the number of standing, active, patents used in that product should be counted including patents owned by the producer of that product.  Then that 25% should be divided equally between all the owners of the patents, per patent, in that product.

This should save the over all economy money in stopping all the bullshit patent lawsuits.

It should bring down the price of products by companies like Apple that abuse the patent system. [opinion]

It should bring down the price of meds but at the same time not stop research and development.

It should help small garage / ma pa businesses grow by protecting against lawsuits and government raids orchestrated by the oligarchs such as against flea markets.

Note that businesses would still be allowed to protect their brands on patented merchandise.  Businesses that produce a similar product using patents owned by the other company would have a different branded product but to benefit of consumer could say “similar to ????.”

China Violate International Law by Displaying Prisoner for Propaganda

Article:

http://edition.cnn.com/2016/01/19/asia/china-sweden-tv-confession/index.html?eref=edition

Peter Jesper Dahlin works for a group called China Action.  The group provides legal help and education to people being abused by China’s legal system.

China considers the group illegal because of undeclared money transfers from overseas and claims the group spreads misinformation to people.

What people should consider most alarming about the behavior is that the Chinese behavior seems to be the growing behavior of oligarch globalist around the planet who want to smash anyone trying to help the little guy.

Obama was totally accepting of Iran breaking similar international law in regards to our sailors who were taken as a result of a higher up in US giving stand down orders to said sailors to allow them to be taken by a small group of thugs under orders from Iran’s oligarchs and then used for propaganda.

Vatican Supreme Court To Consider Allowing President to be Dictator

This opinion piece is in response to article:

Note:

Why do I refer to this Supreme Court as the Vatican Supreme Court?

Because in the name “diversity,” Vatican Operatives from Reagan forward have stacked the Supreme Court with 6 Roman Catholics and 3 Jews.  This Supreme Court has followed the long established will of the Vatican to destroy the United States as a free Constitutional Republic with elected leaders.  Its rulings largely ignore the Constitution and the will of our founding fathers.

About the case:

The lower courts have already ruled that Obama can not ignore the will of Congress and dictate Immigration Law through executive action.

The appeals court clearly ruled that Obama’s executive action exceeded Mr. Obama’s statutory authority.  That the Vatican Supreme Court would consider disagreeing with that is as scary as the Vatican Supreme Court ruling that the power to take money from the citizens of the United States is an unlimited power, as they insanely and corruptly ruled to keep Obamacare legal when it is clearly not legal as written.

So when Vatican Operatives in the elite media suggest that the Supreme Court taking the case is a good thing, bull!  The only thing the Supreme Court should have said is that we stand behind the lower court and agree that Obama exceeded his executive authority.

The Vatican is clear that they want to flood Europe and the United States with cheap labor to serve the feudal lords that the Vatican anoints with their control of not just the corrupt Vatican Bank but also with their operatives planted in the Central Banks around the world that control the flow of money and in some cases who gets access to that money.

Hopefully, I will be proven wrong and the Supreme Court does not want to make the position of President the same as a position of Dictator.  Hopefully the Supreme Court will prove they are not as controlled by the Vatican as I think they are.  But I am not holding my breath.

….

This is opinion.  If you have a different opinion cool. Please note Vatican Operative is not code for Catholic.  Many Catholics are as disturbed by what the Vatican is doing to the United States as the rest of us.  Some, perhaps many, Vatican Operatives are not Catholic or do not present themselves as such.
