Save the USA

from this article at defensetech.org on the military’s new technologies

The Pulsed Energy Projectile fires a short intense pulse of laser energy. This vaporizes the outer layer of the target, creating a rapidly-expanding expanding ball of plasma. At different power levels, those expanding plasmas could deliver a harmless warning, stun the target, or disable them - all with pinpoint laser precision from a mile away….

The Controlled Effects document suggests “it may be possible to create synthetic images…to confuse an individual’ s visual sense or, in a similar manner, confuse his senses of sound, taste, touch, or smell.”

In other words, it may be possible to use electromagnetic means to create overwhelming ’sound’ or ‘light’, or indeed ‘intolerable smell’ which would exist only in the brain of the person perceiving them.

There is another side as well. The “sensory consequences” document also notes that the nervous system which controls muscles could be influenced to cause what they call “Taser-like motor effects.” The stun gun’s ability to shock the muscles into malfunction is relatively crude; we might now be looking at are much more targeted effects.

I keep posting this spooky technology stuff because this is where we’re headed if we don’t take back America now.

Circa 1999 from Techweb

A careless mistake by Microsoft programmers has shown that special access codes for use by the U.S. National Security Agency (NSA) have been secretly built into all versions of the Windows operating system….

But according to two witnesses attending the conference, even Microsoft’s top crypto programmers were stunned to learn that the version of ADVAPI.DLL shipping with Windows 2000 contains not two, but three keys. Brian LaMachia, head of CAPI development at Microsoft was “stunned” to learn of these discoveries, by outsiders. This discovery, by van Someren, was based on advance search methods which test and report on the “entropy” of programming code…

According to Fernandes of Cryptonym, the result of having the secret key inside your Windows operating system “is that it is tremendously easier for the NSA to load unauthorized security services on all copies of Microsoft Windows, and once these security services are loaded, they can effectively compromise your entire operating system”. The NSA key is contained inside all versions of Windows from Windows 95 OSR2 onward…

“How is an IT manager to feel when they learn that in every copy of Windows sold, Microsoft has installed a ’back door’ for the NSA — making it orders of magnitude easier for the U.S. government to access your computer?” he said.

Van Someren said he felt the primary purpose of the NSA key might be for legitimate U.S. government use. But he said there cannot be a legitimate explanation for the third key in Windows 2000 CAPI. “It looks more fishy,” he said on Friday.

Empire North, located in Copenhagen, Denmark, has introduced a new law enforcement tool called an ID Sniper Rifle™.

According to their marketing material, the ID Sniper Rifle™ is used to implant a GPS-microchip in the body of a human being, using a high powered sniper rifle as the long distance injector. This micro chip enters the body and remains there without causing any internal damage. The manufacturer says the process brings little physical pain as the micro chip enters the body of an unsuspecting human, similiar to a mosquito bite lasting just a fraction of a second. At the same time this occurs, a digital camcorder with a zoom-lense fitted within the scope will being to take a high-resolution picture of the target. The target in this case is a human being.

Empire North maintains that law enforcement need this rifle

“As the urban battlefield grows more complex and intense, new ways of managing and controlling crowds are needed. The attention of the media changes the rules of the game. Sometimes it is difficult to engage the enemy in the streets without causing damage to the all important image of the state. Instead EMPIRE NORTH suggests to mark and identify a suspicious subject on a safe distance, enabeling the national law enforcement agency to keep track on the target through a satellite in the weeks to come.”

Empire North has been showing this new rifle for law enforcement from Bejiing, China in 2002 to New York City in April 2004. The company markets products for the “modern urban battlefield.” Empire North also markets a product called “JuJu the Citizen Eye.” This little camera is designed to photograph suspicious activity and immediately be able to transmit it to the Ministry of Homeland Security.

This article pretty much sums it up:

Could we be constantly tracked through our clothes, shoes or even our cash in the future?

I’m not talking about having a microchip surgically implanted beneath your skin, which is what Applied Digital Systems of Palm Beach, Fla., would like to do. Nor am I talking about John Poindexter’s creepy Total Information Awareness spy-veillance system, which I wrote about last week.

Instead, in the future, we could be tracked because we’ll be wearing, eating and carrying objects that are carefully designed to do so.

The generic name for this technology is RFID, which stands for radio frequency identification. RFID tags are miniscule microchips, which already have shrunk to half the size of a grain of sand. They listen for a radio query and respond by transmitting their unique ID code. Most RFID tags have no batteries: They use the power from the initial radio signal to transmit their response.

After this was written, Congress passed the new National ID Card Bill. In a year, all US Driver’s licenses will have RFID chips… the police state will be complete.

A baby born in Germany lacked the gene that produced myostation, a muscle growth inhibitor, now athletes mad scientists and evil billionaires are drooling at the possibilities.

Somewhere in Germany is a baby Superman, born in Berlin with bulging arm and leg muscles. Not yet 5, he can hold seven-pound weights with arms extended, something many adults cannot do. He has muscles twice the size of other kids his age and half their body fat.

DNA testing showed why: The boy has a genetic mutation that boosts muscle growth.

Many scientists believe the find could eventually lead to drugs for treating people with muscular dystrophy and other muscle-destroying conditions. And athletes would almost surely want to get their hands on such a drug and use it like steroids to bulk up.

And evil billionaires would almost surely want to use this to create a new breed of supercop…

Dick Cheney in his bunker, “these guys are ok, but it’d sure be cool if they were genetically modified to be 7′ tall, do-whatever-we-say, goons… muahaahaahaahaa!” (bites pinky finger)

It sounds like I’m joking, but I’m afraid not…. this is what myostatin-blocked GM Beef look like

Imagine the new ‘Secret Service Uniformed Division’ staffed with cops built like that.

And whaddya know- they have found the stupid gene as well:

Scientists in North Carolina say they have identified a gene that affects IQ.. The new research could also have ethical implications because the effect of the gene appears to be quite dramatic: The scientists say that males who inherit a particular version of the gene have, on average, an IQ that is 20 points lower than males who don’t.

Guardian UK: ‘We can implant entirely false memories’

Alan Alda had nothing against hard-boiled eggs until last spring. Then the actor, better known as Hawkeye from M*A*S*H, paid a visit to the University of California, Irvine. In his new guise as host of a science series on American TV, he was exploring the subject of memory. The researchers showed him round, and afterwards took him for a picnic in the park. By the time he came to leave, he had developed a dislike of hard-boiled eggs based on a memory of having made himself sick on them as a child - something that never happened.

Someone should study how effective Fox News is at using this technique to trick viewers into believing entirely false versions of recent history.

In case you hadn’t heard, it’s not just Bush, Cheney & the Republicans, the Democrats are corrupt too. It’s not Rebubs vs Dems, it’s US vs Them.

Great news, a pill to erase memories- it’s not like it could ever be misused, right?

Some doctors have an even more ambitious goal: trying to cure PTSD. They are deliberately triggering very old bad memories and then giving the pill to deep-six them.

The first study to test this approach on 19 longtime PTSD sufferers has provided early encouraging results, Canadian and Harvard University researchers report.

“We figure we need to test about 10 more people until we’ve got solid evidence.” said Alain Brunet, a psychologist at McGill University in Montreal who is leading the study.

It can’t come too soon.

The need for better treatment grows daily as American troops return from Iraq and Afghanistan with wounded minds as well as bodies. One government survey found almost 1 in 6 showing symptoms of mental stress, including many with post-traumatic stress disorder. Disability payments related to the illness cost the government more than $4 billion a year.

So instead of helping the troops truly heal, we’re going to give them drugs to suppress their memories…? Sounds like a quick fix- I wonder if the memories could resurface down the road… ah, who cares- the FDA is streamlining the approval process…. no long-term research necessary- 29 subjects is “solid evidence”!

Trust in a Bottle- Imagine the possibilities!

Some people smell fear in potential business partners. Others smell a rat. But individuals who smell a certain brain hormone become unusually trusting of others in financial transactions, according to a new report.

I wonder if this is how they are passing all that crap in Congress??? Then there’s this:

Worries may arise that crowds of people will be sprayed with oxytocin at political rallies or other events to induce trust in speakers…

But our wonderful leaders in America would never think of such a thing.

And it is currently available, for good purposes:

The hormone, which is currently available as a medication to help induce or speed up labor, could one day be used to ease other, more complicated problems. “There’s evidence that neglected children may experience permanent brain changes,” says Zak. For those kids, treatment with oxytocin could allow them to form close bonds.

This sounds like yet another product that the mafia is going to love, in fact I think they’re using it already…

The global elite love this idea:

It sounds like science fiction: a brain nurtured in a Petri dish learns to pilot a fighter plane as scientists develop a new breed of “living” computer. But in groundbreaking experiments in a Florida laboratory that is exactly what is happening.

The “brain”, grown from 25,000 neural cells extracted from a single rat embryo, has been taught to fly an F-22 jet simulator by scientists at the University of Florida.

Why do they have to teach it to fly a military jet?

They hope their research into neural computation will help them develop sophisticated hybrid computers, with a thinking biological component.

One target is to install living computers in unmanned aircraft so they can be deployed on missions too dangerous for humans.

I’m sure the warmongers will just love this. Just what they need to keep the citizens in line, if Americans won’t turn on each other, they’ll have the rat-brain, robot planes do it.
