The Keiser Report No. 330 -- 2012 Aug 21 TU

Off-on-on, throughout the day and evening, I have been searching for the video of today's Max Keiser Report -- MaxKeiser.com, Max's YouTube channel, Russia Today's YouTube channel, YouTube at large -- and have not found it posted.

Saturday Max announced that, over the next couple of weeks, he and Stacy will be moving from Paris to London. I am speculating that the relocation may have something to do with his absence today, but it's only speculation. I'll pass along more when I know something.

Housekeeping, Somewhat Literally - July 01 FR

.

Relocation Update.

Tomorrow, Saturday, is a big day. The moving company truck is scheduled to arrive at the house we are renting between 8:00 and 9:00 in the morning with all of our belongings that have been in storage (about 90 percent of what we own). Also, the washer and dryer we are renting are supposed to be delivered and set up sometime after noon. We got a fabulous deal on the laundry pair from Aaron's Rentals -- we are paying only slightly more than one arm and one leg per month! And, in theory, the used refrigerator we bought [hopeitworks-hopeitworks-hopeitworks!] will be delivered sometime during the day.

Unfortunately, the house will still not be habitable because he wonderful people at Comcast could not find a way to provide us with internet service earlier than Tuesday of next week. Thankfully, we've found that we actually have the corporate apartment through the end of next week, so work here will go on. I am thinking that, since we'll be getting a reasonably early start tomorrow, I should be in a position to upload the Tarpley show [if it's a new one... who knows, since he was still in Tripoli today] at a reasonable time of day.

Oh, and speaking of the wonderful people at Comcast, I am about to dealing with something I've never faced in my 21 years of using the internet -- a bandwidth cap. Yes, boys and girls, 250 gigabytes per month is all that I have to use without incurring steep overage charges -- and that is upstream + downstream if it has been explained properly to us. I am going to probably be a little conservative during the first month... perhaps only seeding torrents for 3-4 days instead of a week or more, etc. I would love to hear from users who have any experience dealing with Comcast generally, and in Texas in particular.

Anyway, I think there is much less chance of any serious interruption in my work than I was fearing earlier. With a little luck, things should be more or less normal for the next couple of days. Monday of course in the 4th of July -- Independence Day in these more-or-less United States. I suspect that Jones and Rivero and Schiff will air re-run material that day and it will depend on the age of it as to whether I'll be uploading it or not. But there will be at the least information here about what they are broadcasting. Alan Watt, being a citizen of Canadia™, I am guessing will probably have a fresh show.

By this time next week, we will be occupying our new abode, a relatively small but nice two-bedroom [i.e., one bedroom & one computer room] approximately 40 year-old house. There are still a number of unknowns to face... what utility bills will run, etc., but we are looking forward to a more normal life, even if we will only be able to afford beans and rice.

If you will, please keep us in your prayers, send us positive vibrations, or anything of the sort.

Housekeeping - 2011 Jun TU

.

First, a quick note about how the relocation process is progressing.

I'm happy to say that we are not under as much of a harsh schedule to complete the move-in at the rental house as was first represented in the lease agreement. All the utilities will be in our name before the end of this week and the moving company's truck should be here with our stored belongings either Thursday or Friday of next week. It will be that arrival day, and possibly the day after when I may not be able to work at the computer.

One of the final details is getting an ISP, and it appears that there is no choice in the matter. For cable internet, the only option in that location is Comcast.

Second, an apology for taking so long to post a report on donations I received during the month of May. I will endeavor to report on June's contributions sooner after the end of this month.

Net funds received from PayPal (after they deducted their service charges) was $52.30. Below is a list of donations month-by-month since the first ones received in September of last year.

The work I do on this blog is "my job" these days. I didn't start it and I don't continue it as a way to make money, but rather because I believe that spreading this information is important. Anytime anyone in these hard economic times finds that they have the willingness and the ability to donate in support of what I do here, any donation of any size is sincerely appreciated.

Update to Breaking Personal News

.

To make a long story short: we got it. Mrs. S and I are about to be living in an actual house for the first time in our life together.

We had a few very anxious hours this morning when it appeared that the wire transfer from our bank in Arkansas to the new bank in Texas was LOST! Thank you very much Federal Reserve System. But it was found almost literally at the last possible minute to keep the deal from falling through.

I am happy to say that Mrs. S will have a commute of barely 20 miles -- round-trip.

It will be Monday before I know the details of exactly when the physical moving will commence, but it now seems that we may have a few more days to accomplish it than first thought.

So we are ready to catch our breath now, relax and maybe celebrate a bit this weekend. It would be nice if my son wasn't going to be five or six hundred miles away on Fathers' Day.

Anyway, the only cloud in our skies right now is some pretty dramatic "sticker-shock" from the $700 or so that we are facing for utilities deposits.

A big thank you from both of us for all the good wishes and positive thoughts!

Breaking Personal News

.

Regular readers of this blog are probably aware that a few weeks ago Mrs. S and I moved from NW Arkansas to Houston, Texas. At the time we had to make the move we had not yet found a place to rent. The company for which Mrs. S works offered us two months of lodging in "corporate housing" -- a nice furnished apartment. We have been looking for a decent small house reasonably close to the building where Mrs. S works.

We have learned that the Houston rental market moves very fast. If one finds a place they like, there is no time to hesitate. That being said, we think we have found a house that will work for us. We will know whether it is a "done deal" tomorrow.

If we do get this house, we've been told that we will have a fairly small window of time (as little as 5 days) during which to move in. That will involve getting the bulk of our possessions moved from a storage warehouse; paying deposits and arranging for turn-on of water, electricity, gas, and cable; etc., etc.

Obviously, if the clock begins ticking on this process tomorrow, the next few days will be extremely hectic ones and we have no way of knowing (among other things) how promptly we will have internet access at our new address. All I can say with certainty is that I will do as much work here each day as possible.

Frankly, I am dreading moving again so soon, but it is inevitable. I am most definitely looking forward to the move being finished, so that I can get back to work at my own desk and establish once again a sense of some permanence in our life. I thank everyone for their tolerance during this period of big changes, and I ask that you be patient with me for just a little longer.

I'll post an update tomorrow, but at the moment things look promising.

Still Alive - Houston Edition

.

To put it concisely, we made it... barely.

Yesterday's drive was surreal. We traveled through 9.5-10 hours of the most intense rain that I've ever witnessed. When it stopped or eased up enough that we could see the clouds, they looked as if they were ready to start dropping tornadoes at any moment.

Exhaustion is too mild a word to describe our condition upon arriving (as it started to rain again). O.K., enough complaining.

We got the car unloaded this afternoon, found a nearby supermarket and picked up a few essentials, then I began unboxing and setting up the computer. Between the shopping trip taking longer than we had thought, a problem with the router, etc., It was much later when I got online than I had intended.

I was very happy to see that Hippie had stepped up and made the Tarpley show available in a very timely manner. Kudos to Hippie and sincere thanks for all the hard work this week.

Unless something happens that I cannot foresee, I should be able to get tomorrow's Jones show and No Agenda up at a reasonable time Sunday evening.

I am very much looking forward to getting back to a more or less reasonable schedule.

Thanks again to Hippie [hope you will consider continuing to upload some of the shows you've posted here this week that I usually don't have time to do]. And thank you to everyone for your patience and perseverance. Finally, big thanks from Mrs. S and me for all the prayers and positive thoughts, kind words and encouragements. You helped us make it through the storm.

Regarding the Rest of this Week

.
I just sat down at the computer to upload today's Alex Jones Show all-in-one mp3 to a file host and saw that Hippie had already uploaded the hour by hour version of the show about a half hour ago. I have heard from a few people that do prefer the single file format, so here is the link for that:

http://kiwi6.com/file/tm1jo24vlh

Today's broadcast went about 30 minutes into a fourth hour for a conversation with Dr. Paul Connett of FlourideAlert.org. Look in the near future for an Infowars "video report" featuring an uninterrupted interview with Connett.

---

Now, as for the rest of this week, here is what I know.

I had been planning on creating an "open" post so that those who are interested in helping could post links to shows they are able to upload over the next few days. Comments would of course have been set to no moderation.

But, since Hippie has volunteered to be a regular contributor (at least for the duration of my absence), I think I'll try to do a similar thing in a slightly different way. Rather than having any and all links added as comments to a single post, I will ask that any who are interested in helping add their links as comments to the relevant daily post that will be being created by Hippie.

Today is probably the last day I will have any appreciable time online until we are in Houston on Friday evening. I may be able to check email here Wednesday evening. Thursday evening we are going to be mopping, vacuuming, etc. -- our final cleanup effort -- and then we will retire to a hotel room here for the night. I think that place has free wifi, but between the exhaustion of cleaning all evening and our plan to depart for Houston about 5:00 the next morning, I probably won't spend much time on the computer. Thank goodness the little old netbook is still holding together, though.

Our goal is to be at the corporate housing apartment in Houston by 5:00 p.m. Friday. Normally, if traffic is decent, it is about a 10 hour trip, but this time we are will have with us two cats who have never been in a car for more than 30 minutes! I am fairly certain that I am not going to be in a condition conducive to getting any real work done Friday night. I would like to at least get the computer equipment unpacked, but that will be on a movers' truck that won't arrive until sometime during the next week.

I do hope to get back to work on Saturday, doing at least the Tarpley show -- both as a torrent and as an upload to a filehost.

Between now and then I hope you will keep Mrs. S and me in your thoughts and prayers. And maybe a few good wishes for the fur kids, that they will be brave in their new world.

Finally, my most sincere thanks for all the support and encouragement you have given along the way to here.

Shows and Relocation Notes - 2011 May 12 TH - REDUX

Friday afternoon, May 13 -- yes, Friday the 13th

I have read this afternoon that Blogger is working to restore the publish posts from yesterday that still remain absent, but I am not going to hold my breath while waiting for that to happen. Below is my best effort at recreating what I had published up until the time when I could no longer edit. I hope it is still of some value. PLEASE make suggestions about what we might set up as a "backup communication channel".

Latest Relocation Info

Finally, at long last, we have confirmed dates!

Most of our belongings will be going into storage because the small corporate housing apartment is supposedly completely furnished. Roughly 90 percent will go to their warehouse while 10% will go to the apartment -- except for things they will not carry [e.g., any liquids, aerosols, cleaning products, food not in its original container (like flour in a canister), etc.]. Anything they won't transport will have to go in our little Saturn (along with me and Mrs. S and two cats) or be left behind. We have scrapped the idea of renting a truck and towing the car with it. Too expensive.

Anyway, here are the dates, fresh from Mrs. S's email of about an hour ago.

It took some prodding, and C______ at Mayflower tried to blame the delay on D_____, but the result is that the packing date is 5/18, moving date (with possible additional packing) is 5/19. Delivery of the extra stuff we need in Houston is between 5/23-5/27.

So, away we go. We will be leaving in the Saturn in the predawn hours on the morning of Friday the 20th. It feels as if there are still a million things to be done in the next few days, and I likely will not be able to do much of anything here after the 17th and before the 21st.

I hope anyone who feels motivated to step up and handle some of these shows while I am in "down time" will do so. To facilitate that, so that there will be a central place to disseminate information about uploads, I am thinking that I will create an "open post" on my last day of access and de-moderate comments so that they'll be displayed immediately. Suggestions as to anything else I can do are welcome.

The States Strike Back: Rise Of The Republic - audio

This is audio extracted from the PrisonPlanet.tv "video report" described on the web site as follows. [runtime approx 1 hour]

In this special video presentation for Prison Planet.tv members filmed [May 4th] from the new Infowars television studio, Alex Jones hosts a round table discussion featuring Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes, founder and executive director of the Tenth Amendment Center Michael Boldin, as well as activist and economic writer Brandon Smith of Alt-Market, to discuss the states' rights movement and how Americans need to organize now to take back power usurped in a myriad of different ways by the federal government.

Rhodes explains how history tells us that tyranny can never be enforced without the aid of uniformed military and police, highlighting the case of East Germany where troops were told to stand down and two days later the Berlin wall fell. Rhodes documents how the implementation of a totalitarian infrastructure in the United States has led to the President having supreme power to assassinate US citizens by declaring them "enemy combatants" and how this sets an ominous benchmark for the level of power that has been accumulated by the executive branch of government. The federal government, the Southern Policy Law Center and the ADL have all targeted Oath Keepers simply because the group attempts to re-affirm commitment to the bill of rights amongst active duty soldiers and law enforcement.

Michael Boldin invokes the words of the founding fathers who warned that federal power would always grow like a cancer unless the American people used the tool of nullification to strike at the root of such tyranny. Nullification is about rendering a particular law null and void, unenforceable within a state, explains Boldin, and it is the duty of American citizens to oversee this process to stymie federal power instantaneously, not wait until after an election or a legal battle. Boldin has led the effort to promote this ideal with the recent Nullify Now tour.

Brandon Smith joins to discuss the recent federal persecution and raid of the makers of the Liberty Dollar, who were labeled as domestic terrorists because they merely challenged the legitimacy of the federal reserve by encouraging Americans to use sound money. Smith talks about the necessity for communities to set up alternative forms of trade and barter in order to drastically reduce their exposure to dollar devaluation that otherwise threatens to completely eviscerate their economic livelihoods.

This video presentation is brimming with solutions on how ordinary American citizens can contribute to a purposeful and achievable move to reclaim their sovereignty, dignity, financial and political freedoms.

I have not watched the video this came from in its entirety, but it seems to not have a whole lot of "visual content". It's basically just three guys sitting around a table, talking. Filesize of the video: 652 MB in .wmv format, 1154 MB in .mp4 format. If anyone desperately wants video, email me or post a comment and I'll try to figure something out.

Relocation Update - May 10 TU

We are finally getting closer to "set in stone" dates as to when big things will be happening. These dates are basically +/- one day as it stands now.

The movers should be here on either the 17th or 18th to do the major packing. Their representative is here now doing a pre-packing evaluation and letting us know what kinds of items they will not transport. I think we will get a confirmation on a definite packing date tomorrow.

The day after they pack, they'll return with the truck and load it all up to be taken to storage. We will probably be renting a small UHaul truck that will carry clothes, computers, etc. that will go with us to the corporate housing and will be towing our car.

We hope to move into the corporate apartment no later than the 20th, and I hope to be back to more-or-less regular work here on the following day (depending mostly on whether internet access is already set up).

Update:

Gosh! When it rains, it pours. My wife just called from our self-storage unit to tell me that her car won't start.

We had the car towed to the local Chevrolet dealership [since the SATURN dealership doesn't exist anymore... thank you very much, GM!] and we will not have a diagnosis and cost estimate until sometime Wednesday. Hoping like crazy that it's not something catastrophic.
