Pres. Obama, Do/Will I Owe You a “Job Well Done” Compliment?

January 28th, 2011

President Obama,
It has recently occurred to me that I could potentially now – or in the not too distant future - owe you a compliment of “job well done.” Upon your recent well-publicized visits to many major manufacturers throughout the nation, did you start to play ‘hardball’ with those corporate entities? Meaning, did you tell them to start hiring workers or they would see a decrease in Federal contracts being let to them or other unseemly repercussions of not hiring more employees? Did you per chance tell them to relay such a sentiment to their suppliers as well? In return, did you possibly offer these corporate entities less Federal government ‘red tape’/restrictions/regulations as a possible reward for hiring employees? Because, lets face it, such a theme of less corporate regulation has not appeared as typically common to others of your political party affiliation. Anyway, if so, I would be proud to congratulate you. Because clearly such a confrontation is long overdue and we can be sure that your last few predecessors had no inclination to do such a thing for the populace (or at a minimum were unnoticeably unsuccessful if they had).

Without a doubt, we are all aware that the Dow Jones index is climbing. We are all aware that American corporate productivity is at an all-time high. We are all also aware that these positive indicators are a likely result of many employers requiring their workers to do the job and work-hours of three workers so that the employers do not have to hire workers and pay more benefits (such as the hypothetical additional employee’s healthcare). I know this mentality of the employers exists and I know this for a fact because I have a friend that has worked the assembly line of a major employer for the last five months without any days off, seven days a week (with the exception of Christmas and New Year’s Day) – because his employer refuses to hire more workers. And if my friend were to complain about such work demands or refuse any overtime hours, surely he would be fired and replaced with another unemployed citizen desperate for a job.

If my speculations above are correct, well…: “good job, Mr. President Obama.” I am not a prima-donna who refuses to give credit where credit is due. However, you could let us know that you were playing ‘hardball’ with them, we wouldn’t mind. On the other hand, if my conjectures above are not possibly close to being accurate, well please disregard this note/blog, if you would be so kind.

Adam Trotter / AVT

PS. Since I am not sure either way, I suppose time will tell if you did play ‘hardball’ with those employers and whether it works.


Aug 28th, 2012.  It appears that to date, no one gets a 'job well done' concerning any the creation of any jobs because it doesn't really appear that any jobs have been  created anywhere over the  last several years. The lack of jobs seems as bad now as it has ever been.  

President Obama, Cut Whatever Budget You Want, We Are Accustomed To Such.

January 28th, 2011

President Obama,
as you mentioned in your recent State of the Union Address, you plan to cut budgets everywhere. Don’t sweat it. As I’m sure you know, the American People are accustomed to our politicians reducing the budget of the government services We desire the most – whenever our politicians are faced with the necessity to reduce budgets. Why would politicians cut fat where it really exists, no doubt? Also, why would we expect you to do any different or why would you think we would expect you to be different in this regard?

But please keep in mind, We are also aware that nearly any Federal agency can probably perform the agency’s workload with half its numbers of employees and/or half its budget. In fact, we are also aware that several agencies would not even be missed if they were to disappear from the budget entirely. Furthermore, the American People are aware that many agencies appear to offer no value to the taxpayer nor do several Federal agencies seem to care about adding value to the taxpayer.

Should you be interested in my advice as to where to start cutting the Federal budget, please contact me, of you would be so kind.

NYC Mayor Bloomberg Calls for Tougher Gun-Control While Elderly Staten Island Couple Is Nearly Beaten To Death In Apartment Building Lobby.

January 26th, 2011 (Wednesday)

It was widely reported in New York area news that New York City Mayor Bloomberg has again called for tougher national gun-control laws. On Monday, he hosted a rally to promote and highlight his agenda for more gun-control. This rally appeared to be in response to the tragic shooting incident in Tucson, Arizona (wherein an armed violent creep shot a Congresswoman, a Federal judge, and several other unarmed and defenseless citizens). This effort by Mayor Bloomberg to strengthen gun-control laws was also reported on News 12 Long Island on Monday. (See: http://www.nytimes.com/2011/01/26/nyregion/26arms.html?src=twrhp)

Nearly at the same time – or the evening before the rally, an elderly Staten Island couple was “viciously beaten” in the lobby of their apartment building by an unknown assailant/violent creep. Upon returning/walking home after closing their nearby shop, the couple was severely beaten to the point of the elderly woman requiring hospitalization. Had not the couple’s middle-aged son luckily appeared on the scene, it is likely that the unknown violent creep would have beaten the couple to death, as the elderly gentleman described the attack – and as reported on NYC’s Channel 7 News. The son was also beaten until the assailant apparently decided to flee with the all the cash the couple had in their possession: a mere $18 (eighteen dollars) is what he robbed from the couple. (See: http://www.myfoxny.com/dpp/news/local_news/staten_island/elderly-couple-viciously-beaten-on-staten-island-20110126-APX; and: http://newyork.cbslocal.com/2011/01/26/nyc-couple-attacked-during-18-robbery/)

Clearly, if the son or the elderly couple had been armed, the attack likely would not have happened or surely would not have progressed to the extent which it did. Of course, when brandishing a gun, we are all aware that the situation could become inflamed or end with even more tragic results to the innocent. One never knows the results of something that did not happen. However, had any of the victims been armed and ready or able to defend themselves, they may have avoided being the victims of the beating and likely saved the rest of society from a similar fate; as the unknown assailant/violent creep is now still on the loose and will probably strike again.

What’s more, what does the multi-billionaire Mayor Bloomberg know of having to defend oneself from attack? Wherever he goes, surely he is in a limousine with a driver and likely has an armed bodyguard (if not many of them) or a police escort. He is unlikely to ever be faced with the dilemma of whether or not he should take a short-cut through a dark alley when walking solo though an urban area. So, who is he to say or mandate that guns should become more difficult for the populace to acquire?

Conversely, I say, give all the citizens guns to defend themselves from potential attack. Attacks such as this one would then surely cease immediately! The good people of the nation would undoubtedly rid the populace of violent creeps such as the one still on the loose on Staten Island. Though I am not sure how accurate such a saying is anymore, I am always reminded of what my deceased uncle (John Hancock) of Houston, Texas always told me in my younger days. He said: “In Houston, everyone has guns, so no one gets robbed. In New York City, however, no one has guns and everyone gets robbed [or likely could be robbed at anytime].”

This blog is not meant as any type of attack of words on NYC Mayor Bloomberg and he is surely entitled to his opinion. I respect him and his efforts to better NYC/Gotham City. Ultimately, I think he has done a good job as Mayor, in my opinion and from what I know of it all. However, such a politician/billionaire who is well-removed from the potentially seedy and realistic trenches of everyday life where much of the citizenry has to fear violent attack should not be attempting to make it more difficult for the citizenry to obtain the necessary weapons to defend themselves against attack from violent creeps – such as defending themselves from the violent creep currently on the loose on Staten Island!


It is worth noting that when the Founding Fathers assured the American Nation of The People’s Right to Bear Arms, the Right to arm oneself for self-defense against random attacks [by violent creeps] was surely taken for granted and such was not the reason the People were vested with this Right. The ability to defend oneself against haphazard and violent attack was clearly an inalienable Right of the American society and way of life. And, should anyone in the modern era attempt to deny such a fact displays they are ignorant of American history. As a simple example, it wasn’t called a Colt Peacemaker for nothing. Also, if anyone in the modern era should believe such a concern for self-defense is a relic of the by-gone past, I would suggest they speak to the aforementioned and apparently law-abiding elderly couple from Staten Island; but the elderly woman will likely need to have her broken jaw un-wired before she can truly speak with anyone, unfortunately.

To be clear, I don’t carry a gun nor do I believe that I need to carry a gun. However, for law-abiding citizens that live in potentially violent areas, they should be able to arm themselves for defense should they believe such a need exists or if they are unable to defend themselves in any other manner. And to be sure, if guns are outlawed/banned, only the criminals will have guns. Who in their right mind would think the criminals would not be aware of this fact that only they would have guns? Criminals don’t care about any laws – that is why they are called criminals. The truth of the matter is simple: If any criminal/violent creep were to seriously desire obtaining a gun, they would likely get one regardless of any laws. Would we, as Americans, be content to know that the law-abiding Citizens of our Nation could then be considered as criminals merely for seeking the ability to defend themselves against violent criminals who care nothing of gun-control laws? Hopefully this last point will remain only as a hypothetical one.

I would be happy to debate any individual on this topic at anytime, btw!

State of the Union Address / National Pep-Talk.

January 25th, 2011

Did anyone watch the national pep-talk/State of the Union Address this evening? Odd how the President addresses what needs fixing to the very body of typically self-serving individuals that sold the nation down this current river of disrepair. Did you notice there was no talk about ridding us of the nearly criminal Federal Reserve System or ending massive cash subsidies to foreign nations that seemingly care nothing of us – at least I didn’t hear such, but I did miss a few minutes of the speech. Did he say “…let us speak with one voice in support of the Federal Reserve System…” – maybe I misheard him on this one? Also, I ‘gotta wonder if those Nobel Peace Prize folks would probably like their prize back.

The Republican Party’s response was just as appalling in my opinion, btw. The Republican respondent agreed that the budget needs to be controlled/curtailed. However, he suggests that recent Obama legislation on healthcare be repealed – and he could be right. However, be it for better or for the worse, the healthcare legislation seems to be one of the few initiatives that at least gives the appearance that the Congress even cares about the well-being of the American people. And, no doubt, one factor in Corporate America’s decisions to not employ workers of late (especially aged workers) is the cost of healthcare.

It would appear that all returning members of Congress (which would have included the President, btw,) have allowed for the continued economic demise of the American People and have likely significantly driven down the well-being of the American workforce. Concurrently, the politicians in Washington have allowed for the continued devaluation of the dollar which puts the populace even in a lower economic standing while allowing prices to escalate. For one example, the price of gasoline continues to forever climb. The dollar (Federal Reserve Note), on the other hand, continues to become more devalued by the Fed. Furthermore, the average worker now has become increasingly desperate for a decent job and will now likely accept employment offers of less than half the salary they would have expected less than a decade ago. Does this not sound like a possibly concerted effort of an entity which consistently sides with corporate America over the well-being of the populace, I have to wonder?

Who has allowed for the selling of our birthright and the off-shoring of our industries? Congress, that’s who. Where was the president during these times of devastation to the American workforce? He was a member of Congress, of course. The Federal Reserve System, however, remains essentially unchanged – with the exception of being considerably wealthier, particularly with its gold holdings. In the end, as business is business and competition rules the day in a ‘free’ society, the mass exodus to foreign shores of our American corporations, manufacturing plants, and American jobs would not be so heinous if it were not for the apparent facilitation of this exodus by our own government – at least if one believes the recently deceased ‘Evil’ Irv Homer of Philadelphia FM 96.5 talk radio fame, and he didn’t seem to be the type to lie about anything, btw. (Some day I hope to personally verify this reported fact.)

Sorry for my potentially dwelling on the negative. But, Mr. President and members of Congress: The time for meaningless pep-talks, quite frankly, has ended. (But I do appreciate how you are seemingly/apparently reading my blogs for your speech material and I am aware much of the macro-economic condition is a matter of perception and pep-talks appear as the nature of the State of the Union Address beast as well.)

The point of the matter is: Do any of you politicians truly care about the nation’s welfare? Is Congress completely inept or does the Federal Reserve actually run the country and you politicians are merely The Fed’s errand boys? If so, bring on The Fed and let us deal with them directly!

Additionally, the mixed party affiliation seating arrangement during this Address likely shows that Congress and our government officials consider us/the populace to be potentially violent and mentally deficient creeps who could respond with unlawful violence over something as superficial and meaningless as political rhetoric spewed from our national politicians.

With the new members to Congress potentially withstanding, clearly by now we are all aware that in Washington, D.C., symbolism, rhetoric, the politicians’ own self-interests, The Federal Reserve, and pep-talks are more important to our politicians than the well-being of the American populace.

The Adam Vernon Trotter Problem-Solving and Decision-Making Process

January 25th, 2011



I was recently asked:

Are you familiar with/well practiced at the Kepner Tregoe problem solving and decision making process (KT)? Please briefly elaborate.

[I responded with the following:]



Yes.

At the risk of sounding arrogant, which is something I prefer not to do, I consider myself a consummate creative problem solver and a systematic, fair-minded decision maker. The real trick of it all is not to create any new problems while solving others. Ultimately, when faced with any problem, a truthful, viable, and feasible solution that reflects the utmost of technical integrity is what I seek to resolve the difficulty.

Whenever possible, I always strive to achieve ‘win-win’ solutions for all parties involved – even when faced with others who have no knowledge of ‘win-win’ possibilities or prefer/tend to deny any possible ‘win-win’ outcome of any given situation. Regardless, I am a steadfast believer in the importance of proper communication. I enjoy debating topics with others. I try to enlighten and productively persuade others. I prefer open-minded individuals over closed-minded ones. When working as a member of a team, I make a concerted effort to let all team members contribute to the task at hand – in their own fashion, if need be. I rarely, if ever, hold a grudge against anyone. Conversely, I often play ‘devil’s advocate’ concerning nearly any issue in an effort to better any necessary solution.

Consequently, I consider myself an expert at problem definition/analysis efforts – be they actual problems or potential problems and regardless of whether they are of a technical or interpersonal nature. In the end, I always strive to effect meaningful and feasible solutions that survive into the distant future. Along the way, I enjoy breaking-down problems and analyzing all potential variables that might be present. I tend to dislike and distrust any assumptions and I greatly enjoy nonstop brainstorming. As such, I am competent at correcting problems and installing/implementing solutions. Throughout the effort I continually assess and reassess the process and the outcome as necessary. I always consider Return On Investment (ROI) of decisions and life cycle costing of capital investments and improvements (and IRR and NPV, too). Every effort also must pass a simplistic real-world sanity check while being scrutinized for value-added. Furthermore, ethical actions and safety concerns are always paramount throughout any undertakings or efforts. As such, I am never perturbed by supervisory involvement or lack thereof. I am confident that I perform these problem-solving and decision-making initiatives equally well when working as a team member and also when working solo.

While this problem-solving and decision-making process may seem drawn-out or vague and even haphazard or random, such is not the case. Not at all. Problem solving is [almost always] a simplistic and systematic process, albeit possibly an iterative, consuming and involved process at times – depending on the circumstances. Such a systematic and straight-forward process is regardless of the complexity of the problem or the intricacy of the preferred solution/decision – politics and resources potentially withstanding, of course, depending on the environment, situation, and personalities involved. However, when the process functions properly and a ‘win-win’ outcome reflecting fairness, integrity, and truth is attained: the environment, the difficulty, and the situation are all, in fact, nearly and typically irrelevant to the problem-solving and decision-making process.


/// end of response///



Had I have known that I could rival Princeton professors with such an answer, or possibly made myself rich or famous with such a process, I may have written this particular blog entry much sooner. :) As might be apparent to some, what I have done here is to take what is claimed to be the Kepner Tregoe (KT) problem solving and decision making process and expanded it. What you might find here in The Adam Vernon Trotter Problem-Solving and Decision-Making Process includes much of what might be included in the common-sense KT Process with additional facets which I do not believe are addressed by the KT process.

U.S. Government/Obama Administration Wants China to Stop Devaluing Its Currency. Which is the Free Nation and Which is Communistic/Fascist?

January 18th, 2011

In anticipation of the expected meeting tomorrow at the White House between President Obama and China’s President, ABC’s World News with Diane Sawyer reported this evening on the U.S. Government’s/Obama Administration’s efforts to “level the playing field" regarding trade with China. One of the topics of concern to the U.S. Government/Obama Administration is reportedly the continued devaluation of the Chinese currency.


Say what???!?!?!?


If that’s not the proverbial “pot calling the kettle black”. I mean… does our government consider the news viewing public idiotic – or is it merely ABC News that believes the viewers of its news program to be stupid? After such a report that appears totally ignorant of the apparent truth in this matter or, at a minimum, is attempting to not reveal the entire truth of the matter, I likely would not believe anything ABC News reports on the economy.

The United States – via the Federal Reserve System – has been devaluing our currency for most of the last one hundred years with particularly concerted efforts to this end during the last several years [if not decades]. One only needs to review the price of gold [in dollars] for evidence of our devalued currency (or read more of my blog). In fact, I am fairly confident that the Chinese government has re-linked the exchange rate of their currency to the U.S. Dollar a few years ago – displaying that they are not stupid either (see notes below). Therefore, if the dollar continues to become devalued, so in turn will the Chinese currency. Furthermore, unlike the Federal Reserve System and the ‘U.S Dollar,’ to my knowledge the Chinese government was never warned against the escalation of a “currency war” by the European Central Bank (ECB) as was the Federal Reserve System warned of such a few months back by the ECB regarding The Fed’s continued devaluation efforts of the ‘U.S. Dollar’/Federal Reserve Note. (See: http://adamvernontrotter.blogspot.com/2010/10/fed-to-buy-back-government-debt.html )

What is of particular interest and displayed by stories such as these, is the limited amount of reporting on items such as the continued devaluation efforts of the ‘U.S. Dollar’/Federal Reserve Note, the previously [albeit minimally] reported down-grading of American government securities instruments such as U.S. government bonds (downgraded by the Chinese, at least - and downgraded by others too as I recall, reports of which I can not locate at the time of this writing), and the limited amount of reporting of issues such as the Chinese government’s efforts to protect its financial interests by linking the exchange rate of its currency to the exchange rate of the dollar.

So again I ask, is it the U.S. government (and the Federal Reserve System) and/or ABC News who consider the U.S. general public and network news viewers to be total idiots with absolutely no knowledge of economics and international monetary policy or do these sources of information merely prefer not to report the entire truth? As time has now shown by tonight’s newscast, apparently all of them (ABC News, The Fed, and the U.S. Government) must consider the U.S. public/populace to be completely ignorant of economics and the current realities of international monetary policy. Clearly we can now legitimately ask: Can we no longer trust our news media sources to report the entire truth of any issue to the nation? (A question I have put forth previously, btw. See: http://adamvernontrotter.blogspot.com/2010/05/is-nation-under-siege-could-we-trust.html)

I mean…., concerning truth in reporting by the media as well as the truth regarding the continued devaluation of currency, which is the free nation and which nation is communistic / fascist?

How Currency Choices 'Made in China' Have Big Impact on U.S. Economy

REPORT AIR DATE: Jan. 18, 2011.
http://www.pbs.org/newshour/bb/business/jan-june11/chinacurrency_01-18.html

"SUMMARY
Economics correspondent Paul Solman looks at the ongoing dispute between the U.S. and China over currency and trade. Amid its trade deficit with China, the U.S. wants to pressure the Chinese to let their currency, the renminbi, rise in value instead of pegging it to the dollar.

PAUL SOLMAN: For many years, China glued its currency to the U.S. dollar. But, starting in 2005, China loosened its grip, letting the value of the dollar fall against the renminbi, some 20 percent over three years.
But, in 2008, the world financial crisis hit, and China reglued the renminbi to the dollar. In the aftermath, China has recovered, while the U.S. economy limps along, our unemployment rate distressingly high."


///


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixed_exchange_rate (yea, I know we are not supposed to quote wikipedia)

“…There are no major economic players that use a fixed exchange rate (except the countries using the euro and the Chinese yuan). … Another, less used means of maintaining a fixed exchange rate is by simply making it illegal to trade currency at any other rate. This is difficult to enforce and often leads to a black market in foreign currency. Nonetheless, some countries are highly successful at using this method due to government monopolies over all money conversion. This was the method employed by the Chinese government to maintain a currency peg or tightly banded float against the US dollar. …” Which, as is typical for wikipedia, this information is seemingly contradicted further down the webpage.


///




An of course, there are others that say the Chinese currency is pegged to a ‘basket’ of currencies; but I don’t know how current this article is.

What is the United States Dollar (USD)?

http://www.gocurrency.com/countries/united_states.htm



“…A significant recent development is the action of the People's Republic of China: the renminbi had once been informally and controversially pegged to the dollar (since the mid-1990s, at 1 U.S. dollar = 8.28 Y); however the peg was removed on July 21, 2005. Instead, China has a managed float against a basket of currencies. …”

Perpetual Motion Machine to Possibly Generate Electricity.

January 13th, 2011


I think I have devised a perpetual motion machine. What’s more, I think the device could generate electricity as well. Though, to be honest, others may have made the same claim in the past and may have done so with a similar design – I’m not sure at this point in time. But I believe any previous design to this end was probably somewhat different than what I have planned for my design. Then again, time will tell what the eddy current losses have to say as well as those that may have a vested interest against anyone having a potential source of free electricity.

I’ll let you know; Lord willing, that is. :)

Internet Website/Group, Sorcha Faal, Claims DoD Poison Gas Leak in Arkansas and Subsequent Fishkill Led to Delaware Murder of Gov't Official Wheeler.

January 8th, 2011


As I was surfing the internet for information about the Arkansas bird deaths and fishkill, I came across/was led to an odd looking website that claimed a U.S. Military weapons test led to a poison gas leak. The poison gas leak in turn led to the fishkill in the Arkansas River – either as a result of the leak or as a cover-up of the initial leak. As reported by this group named “Sorcha Faal” on this odd website, quasi or claimed government official, John P. Wheeler III (champion of the Vietnam Vets Memorial in Wash. DC), threatened to go public with the information of the Defense Department’s poison gas leak. As a result of his threat to go public with the information, Wheeler was then murdered with his body being found in Delaware, or so the cause of his murder is reported by the site and potentially suspect group.

The group/individual making these claims goes by the name of “Sorcha Faal” and her “Sisterhood.” The relevant page on their site is:

http://www.whatdoesitmean.com/index1435.htm

Scroll down about half way down the page to see their story as to the death of Wheeler.

I have no idea if this is a truthful story or a blatant hoax.

A Google search of the “Sorcha Faal” group revealed that the site is potentially only a hoax and merely a pen name for someone by the name of David Booth – as claimed by some Google search results. However, the group vehemently defends their legitimacy. There are other claims that the group has some connection to Russian Intelligence factions. Again, I don’t know one way or the other.

The story the group reports relevant to the death of Wheeler might be true or it might not. Of course, I have no way of knowing either way. However, I would wonder about the reported timeline of events – as it was widely reported that Wheeler seemed to have disappeared on December 27th and he was found dead in a Delaware landfill on New Year’s Eve day and the fishkill did not materialize until [essentially] a week after his disappearance with the en masse animal death appearing on New Year’s Day. However, I have no idea what poison gas related information Wheeler may have threatened to “Pentagon officials” that he was planning on relaying/taking to the public – as a claimed threat of going public about a “DoD poison gas leak” was made by the internet group. And, of course, the ensuing fishkill in Arkansas as well as the other en masse animal deaths around the world could have been easily orchestrated as a cover-up effort subsequent to whatever event or information that may have upset Wheeler – as such is suggested by the group.

Worth noting, on another page of the group’s website on the group's “alternative news” page, the group claims poisonous clouds from space are causing other en masse fishkills (etc.) around the world. So, I don’t know what to make of the group or its claims. (See: http://www.whatdoesitmean.com/index1437.htm)

However, news of James P. Wheeler III's murder was reported and claimed as “extremely odd and surprising” (or the likes) by his family, friends, and neighbors. Such an odd killing could seem to be characteristic of a possible murder by an unknown government clandestine/‘spook’ forces, no doubt.

I alerted authorities and other potentially interested parties to the claims of the website and group – whether such claims are worthy of investigation or not. If this information is a hoax or a joke, this person or group that is making any possible false claims in this regard would be clearly ignorant and likely evil. If these claims are truthful, however, we likely would then owe them a debt of gratitude to say the least. Hopefully, time will tell us the answer to such a quandary.

What of Electromagnetic and Directed Energy (and Similar) Weaponry and Recent En Masse Animal Deaths?

January 8, 2011

Would it not seem possible, if not probable, that some unknown entity has utilized or tested some type of electromagnetic weaponry and such a utilization has caused these “unexplained” en masse animal deaths? This blog is to pose and ponder the possibilities of such a question.

....

WE are all aware of recent developments in electromagnetic technologies. WE are, of course, aware of the potentially deadly side-effects and potential medicinal uses of electromagnetics as well. WE know electromagnetics seems to be able to diagnose nearly any abnormality in the body. And, of course, WE know that electromagnetics can probably cause leukemia and other forms of cancer. But what of those that merely seek to utilize physical phenomena with the envisioned aim/end to kill any potential enemy? What of the deadly and unknown uses of these phenomena and what of its research and maturation by the “war-machines” of the world? Clearly any potential and low-level testing of such a developed weapon could have the effects to kill simpler life forms en masse such as birds and sea creatures – life forms which seem to have some unknown ability to interact with one another which could easily be attributed to some innate sense of electromagnetics.

Of course, we are also aware of our own “war-machine’s” (the U.S.A.’s) recent unveiling of its new Rail Gun – which was widely reported in the media. The rail gun uses and electromotive/electromagnetic force to launch/hurl a projectile potentially hundreds of miles, if not an infinite amount of miles depending on gravity, atmospheric resistance, etc. Surely, of course, we are also aware that such a technology has been under development for decades as well – given the snail’s pace at which our government moves to accomplish anything, if knowing nothing else. (See Youtube video link below for demonstration of the technology.) And, what of similar and/or unknown technologies being developed by our own “war-machines” or the “war-machines” of others? Additionally, there is nothing to suggest that electromagnetic-type weaponry and variations thereof could not be utilized or tested under the sea.


Several years ago, as I was doing my master’s thesis on magnetic bearings, I encountered some technology that was said to be in the process of development by the scientists of the then recently defunct Soviet Union. The said technology was reportedly some type of device that could generate some amount of directed electromagnetic force – somewhat in keeping with or similar to modern utilizations of directed force/directed energy technologies (see links below). It was rumored/written that such a technology and force could easily be utilized to kill humans and essentially do no damage to the buildings housing any targeted humans. The utilization and development of potentially deadly and related technologies by the “war machines” of our world could then seem nearly infinite. Furthermore, for instance, what of the U.S. Army’s HAARP program/project (The High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program) – which looks to accomplish some unknown high altitude manipulations of the ionosphere though electromagnetic/radio waves forces (see links below)?


Again, would it not seem possible, if not probable, that some unknown entity has utilized or tested some type of electromagnetic weaponry and such a utilization has caused these “unexplained” en masse animal deaths? Would it not be to the advantage of our government to downplay these en masse animal deaths if such deaths were the likely result of the testing of our own death-seeking technologies to this end, lest the populace likely demand the dismantling of our “war-machine”? What if some aged scientist of the defunct Soviet Union has since decided to team with one of the many wanna-be “war-machines” of the world to help the “war-mongers” of any smaller/other nation to develop such a technology or any such nation developed such technology of their on fruition and such an unnamed and ignorant nation had recently tested their newly-developed weaponry? Surely, our forces of the western “war-machines” would not invade any nation for merely playing with electromagnets – regardless of the size of the electromagnets and regardless of any claimed good-hearted intentions to save mankind by utilizing the forces of our invading “war-machines” against those experimenting with electromagnetics.


But then again, maybe I am merely ‘crying wolf’ and we can all go back to watching the idiot box that we call television as most governments would surely prefer - television: another electromagnetic technology which prevents/diminishes any inquiring thoughts possibly including any such questions as those posed herein. Should any harm come my way for posing these questions, well I suppose, we would then know the likely answers to my questions and the likely involvement of real-world sinister agents to these unseemly ends, no doubt. Finally, any ignorance and stupidity in our government(s) as well as any evil in the world needs to be wiped from our planet - by the decent folk - whenever and however it is uncovered and by any lawful means necessary!

“…Directed-energy weapons of interest fall into two categories: high-energy lasers and high-power microwaves. Of the two, the research into high-energy lasers is more mature and approaching application.
Another form of directed energy that is being weaponized is “active denial.” This technology features a high-power millimeter wave device being developed for non-lethal applications. In addition, other future high-power microwave devices may have potential use from UCAV platforms, Daniel said.
Microsatellites (those weighing less than 100 kilograms) have the potential to transform military space activities and missions, he said. The potential benefits are multiple and include significantly lower cost to orbit, enhanced tactical flexibility for battlefield commanders and reduced vulnerability.
These small satellites could eventually replace larger ones that perform well-established missions (such as global positioning), and they will enable new missions in logistics, space control and multi-mission satellite clusters, according to Daniel….”

FOLLOW-ON POST, November 18th, 2014
Interesting that the television show "Unsealed: Alien Files" said in 12:30 AM show yesterday (Nov. 17th, 2014) on KTLA that a UFO "Mother-ship" was in the sky over the southern USA the night of the massive bird-kill in Bebe Arkansas back in December 2010. See: http://www.unsealedfiles.com/

Is the Frequency of Events of En Masse Fishkills and Bird-kills Natural and Normal or Cause for Alarm?

January 8, 2011

Are the levels and frequency of recent and seemingly unexplained en masse fishkills and birdkills normal and a naturally occurring phenomena and only being reported as a result of current piqued interest? Did these events always widely take place and such was never reported as the media assumed no one cared? Like…, are we merely in a lull of slow-news days and the press had nothing else to report and sensationalize of late? I mean…, is this sort of a chicken and the egg type of thing? While surely en masse animal deaths have happened in the past, for whatever the reason/cause, I am inclined to doubt that any prior en masse animal deaths happened with such frequency as these events have occurred over the last week or so.


Surely, many officials and reports argue and claim that the number of recent events is natural and normal. While the wildlife officials might insinuate and tell us that en masse animal deaths happen around the nation and world on a daily basis, many of those deaths appeared as clearly explainable as poisoning, trauma, or disease – or so we were told anyhow, should we care to believe the reported causes. However, the overall amount and the majority of individual occurrences of massive animal death events of late seems to be unexplainable as to cause and, in fact, typically claimed as unexplainable by wildlife officials as well.

The reason why I believe that the frequency and the number of seemingly unexplained events of en masse animal deaths has not happened previously is because as one searches for these events in the past, we can find reports of isolated events chronicled on the internet and elsewhere. Therefore, if these events were being reported as they happened in the past, we would likely be able to ascertain the frequency of such events in the past. However, it does not appear that the recent frequency of these events can be historically matched. But then again, previously, maybe our press and media outlets, in their infinite wisdom - no doubt, may have just assumed we would not care to hear about such en masse animal deaths until lately? Well, one thing we can be sure of, if it all starts to happen like this again in the future, the recent seemingly unnatural frequency of en masse animal deaths is well documented now.

Should WE Ever Be Given the Satisfaction of Laying Any Blame for the Recent En Masse Deaths of Birds and Fish/Sea Creatures…..

January 7th, 2011

Assuming the recent en masse deaths of birds and sea creatures throughout the world ever be determined not a result of climate change or chemical changes in the oceans and such fault is of this earth and not from the cosmos, in early retrospect I would surmise blame would likely fall with one of the following culprits:

Foremost, I would think blame would likely fall with one of the world’s “war-machines.” Because, some years ago, I recall reading of technology reportedly being developed by the Soviets that would have the same end effect as we are seeing with these en masse animal deaths. However, of course, the technology was claimed to be of such a strength whereby the en masse deaths would have been humans, not animals. But, if this technology was realized and such had since been recently utilized or tested or such a hypothetical technology had been sold to one of the ‘scum-bag’ wanna-be war-machines and the technology currently was being tested to a low-level extent, such would easily explain the on-going en masse deaths of the animals. Of course, if the Soviets were around to defend themselves today, naturally they would say the opposite and that the west was the one utilizing and testing such a hypothetical weapon – and who am I to say the Soviets would definitely have been wrong, as far as I know anyhow.

In a tie for the next most likely culprits as to the cause of the recent en masse animal deaths would be the Earth itself for one and the massive oil spill and subsequent clean-up efforts from last year for another. It would seem to me that either of these potential culprits could likely be responsible for much of the recent havoc in the animal kingdom as witnessed throughout the world.

The earth could have potentially developed some gravitational or magnetic fault (temporarily or otherwise), which by the way, could also be a result of war-machine efforts. (I understand that there has been several rumored/reported war-machine efforts that seek to leverage the natural occurring physical properties of the earth, as well, btw.) As simpler life forms, birds and sea creatures would likely appear as more susceptible to spikes or changes in the earth’s electo-magnetic energies.

Also in a tie with the earth as a likely culprit would be the environmental damage caused by the recent massive oil spill and efforts and technologies utilized to clean that mess. There is no telling what effects could manifest themselves in sea life and birds as a result of the massive amounts of spilled oil, methane, and man-made chemical and biological agents that were used to collect and dissipate the spilled oil.

Again, my list of likely culprits is with the given assumptions that such en masse animal deaths were not brought on by something in the cosmos, or the weather, or a significant chemical change somewhere within our oceans or atmosphere that would have such an effect. I am aware that at this point in time such assumptions could be hefty assumptions to make, nevertheless.


Worth mentioning, however, should it ever be determined that these events of en masse animal deaths be the result of intentional human efforts to this end, I would suggest that such evil be removed from our earth by whatever means necessary, of course.

Much of the Mainstream Press Appear to Grow Quiet As En Masse Animal Deaths Continue to Occur Throughout the World!?!?

January 7th, 2011


As the sea creatures and birds apparently continue to die en masse throughout the world, much of the mainstream press outlets seem to have ceased reporting the stories. Surprisingly, as the populace of the world grows increasingly more alarmed over the massive and numerous events of the seemingly unexplained animal deaths around the world, the mainstream press seems to have drawn to a near silence on the matters - at least no reports are appearing on television that I have seen anymore. It would seem that many of the press outlets have become aware of the growing alarm amongst the people and have stopped reporting the occurrences of animal deaths as an apparent attempt to not fuel any potential and growing hysteria. Then again, maybe there is nothing for them to say or, while seemingly unlikely, they don’t know what to say.

In addition to the other en masse events of animal deaths of recent days, now we have thousands of dead crabs washing ashore England and thousands of dead turtle doves in Italy (“…hanging dead from the trees like Christmas balls…”). While the dead crabs have washed ashore for three years now – according to a quote in The Christian Science Monitor and The Examiner, the accompanying dead starfish are claimed as a new occurrence for England (according to the CS Monitor).

Other events include dead birds in West Texas and Tennesee. However, reports quote Texas officials being quick to downplay any relation to other bird deaths around the world and are quoted as stating these hundreds (?) of dead birds are unrelated to the to the other en masse bird deaths. It does appear that such has happened in Texas a few years back and was also seemingly unexplained as well. Additionally, reports of similar bird deaths are coming from the State of Tennessee.


Let’s give thanks where it is due: Thanks Huffington Post for keeping a close eye on these events as well as some other on-line and print media for your continued coverage on these matters and your keeping with your perceived duty to report apparently true facts to the populace – be the truth ugly or otherwise.

Should WE Blame a Super Nova or Could War-Machines of the World Be Overdue for a Visit?!?? Worldwide Fishkills and Dead Birds Continue.

January 6th, 2011


Massive Fishkills and Dead Birds Worldwide: Odd Earthly Natural Events, Of Cosmic Origins, Or Humanly Induced?

By the way, Has Anyone Been Watching the Activities of the World’s War-Machines Lately? Is a Visit to the War Machines and Wanna-Be War-Machines of the World in Order?

Or, Conversely and Innocently, Are Such Animal-Death Events a Result of Nature, the Earth, or Could a Far-a-Way and Recently Discovered Super Nova (Supernovae SN2010lt in UGC 3378) Have Any Bearing on the Matter and We as Humans are Merely Ignorant of Such a Fact?

...
...

Given the recurring, numerous, and continuing worldwide massive fish kills and dead birds falling from the sky, it would seem that we are being given clues that possibly/surely something has gone awry. Could these animal-death events merely be a result of natural occurrences or a result of oddities here on earth or even chaos in the cosmos? While seemingly unlikely, could these events be natural for these species? Or, for example, could the earth’s magnetic or gravitational fields have gone amuck – temporarily or otherwise? Has some cosmic event or extraterrestrial force been bombarding us with some type of unknown energy for which we have no way of detecting? For instance, could a recently discovered and far-away super nova have any bearing on these matters? (Supernovae SN2010lt in UGC 3378.) Or merely has some simpleton human(s), intentionally or by accident, released some type of poison or radiation into the atmosphere/biosphere of the earth and either no one knows or no one has told us about it - or could some use of microwave or ultra-low frequency technologies (and the likes) or even massive oil spills be to blame? Regardless, it would seem to me that whatever the case may be with these events, our attention to these matters is well warranted and particularly so if these events persist at such a potentially alarming rate.



By the way, while posing such questions,
something tells me that maybe we better look to see what type of recent activities and pursuits the war-machines of the world have been up to of late. Lord knows, those entities would surely tell us nothing and use any such inducement of death-related events as warped scientific experiments. Of course, we know of several war-machine projects that could cause these types of massive animal-death events, should those projects ever have been realized or successfully deployed and utilized. Then again, maybe there are some new players in the war-machine arenas who, furthermore, care even less for the environment and care nothing of any type of havoc they may cause or unleash upon the world.


Of course, as we are all aware, such animal death-related events could be clues from yet another unmentioned heavenly entity and serve as warnings of another type of impending event; of which I don’t think I really need to address any further in this blog.


Realistically and to begin with, in my opinion, as a species and for the good of the world and for the good of the other species that reside here, I think we better REVISIT THOSE WAR-MACHINES TYPES AND ASK of them ‘HOWDY, WHAT’S NEW’ ??!!?? And, something tells me we best do it sooner rather than later! WE can and should then reassess after we get answers from the war-machines to the question of their status, methinks.

Adam Trotter / AVT



PS. I’m no biologist, but, WE are aware of the odd resemblance between the class of the bird and the ‘class’ of the ‘fish,’ a resemblance which particularly includes the actions/movements of birds and the actions/movements of fish, right? Meaning WE have always been fascinated how both flocks of birds and schools of fish can seemingly move in unison. It is entirely plausible that these creatures have a sense in common amongst themselves that we don’t understand or some capacity to which we as humans are not privy - meaning that those creatures might be susceptible to something which may only affect humans to a lesser extent, if at all.
