For each job opening in the country, around 4.6 unemployed Americans remain without work, reveals statistics just published from the Department of Labor.
While it has been on surprise that unemployment figures have been on the rise, statistics out today from the Labor Department show that there around 300,000 more jobless Americans for each vacant position than there was only one month earlier.
The bad news doesn’t stop there.
With the economy in turmoil overseas as well, experts suggest that it could be quite some time before the unemployment rate dips back down to a pre-recession number. US President Barack Obama has insisted that the passing of his American Jobs Act could bring businesses to making enough hires to get the United States out of its current job slump, but Congress shows no hopes of approving the bill. Unemployment has remained stagnant and gloomy since the president took office in 2009, a feat only accentuated by faltering markets both domestically and abroad.
“My view is they continue to stay with a tight belt and I think it means less hiring than they would have done otherwise,” General Electric Co Vice Chairman Michael Neal tells Reuters today.
Alocoa CEO Klaus Kleinfeld echoed those sentiments, adding that weary in the workplace internationally is keeping both America and the eurozone from escaping a future that seems almost futile.
“I’m more concerned about lack of confidence than about market fundamentals,” Kleinfeld said to Reuters this week. “It almost looks like the world is worrying itself into another recession and that should not be allowed to happen.”
In only the last few months, economists across the world have suggested that as conditions worsen across the sea, a domino effect will only diminish the only chances America has at rebounding from the recession of yesteryear. House Speaker John Boehner this summer expressed worries over the American economy, to which both the International Monetary Fund and billionaire George Soros have also acknowledged is in dire straits.
Others say that these warnings should only be expected.
“How could they possibly be surprised that global GDP growth will be sub-par both this year and next year and as far as the eye can see?” Michael Pento of Pento Porfolio Services told RT last month.
As more American become unemployed and corporations rake in record profits, the Occupy Wall Street movement that began in Lower Manhattan last month — which some say is America’s answer to the Arab Spring — has spread across the country and into other nations internationally as people of all walks of life protest conditions.
He’s not calling it a war, but President Obama will be sending American troops into Central Africa to offer military assistance.
In order to aid with the takedown of Joseph Kony and his Lord’s Resistance Army in Central Africa, President Barack Obama told Congress today that he has authorized upwards of 100 American soldiers into the region to “remove from the battlefield” LRA leader Kony and other high-ranking officials of his army.
In a letter address to House Speaker John Boehner today, President Obama says that American troops “will only be providing information, advice and assistance to partner nation forces,” but that they could engage in battle if necessary for self defense.
Obama says that his decision to send troops into Central Africa comes as a response to two decades’ worth of aggression perpetrated by Kony and the LRA, whom the president says is responsible for having “murdered, raped and kidnapped tens of thousands of men, women and children in central Africa” and continues to “commit atrocities across the Central African Republic, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and South Sudan that have a disproportionate impact on regional security.”
In all, human rights groups and the Obama administration have estimated that thousands of Africans have been assassinated by the LRA army, which also regularly enlists young women as sex slaves and young men as guerilla soldiers.
The first American troops already arrived in Uganda on Wednesday and will soon deploy elsewhere throughout the region once other area nations approve the action. Meanwhile, US military operations continue in Asia, the Middle East and elsewhere.
During the September 2, 2011 GOP Debate, Republican presidential hopeful Ron Paul criticized America’s foreign policy and military for overzealously occupying far too many nations. “We’re in 130 countries. We have 900 bases around the world. We’re going broke,” said Paul.
In regards to the ongoing military presence across Earth, Paul asked, “If we think that we can do that and not have retaliation, we’re kidding ourselves. We have to be honest with ourselves. What would we do if another country, say, China, did to us what we do to all those countries over there?”
An officer with the US Department of Defense confirmed today to ABC News that American troops are expected to stick around in Africa “for a few months.” Meanwhile, the US war in Afghanistan just entered its tenth year, making it the longest war America has ever been in.
Stephan Anderson, a former New York police detective, has testified saying planting drugs on innocent citizens was a common occurrence for NYPD officers to meet their quota for arrests.
Anderson’s testimony led to the apprehension of eight NYPD officers in one of the biggest corruption scandals in the Brooklyn South and Queens Narcotics units.
The former detective admitted to having planted cocaine on innocent victims to help fellow officer Henry Tavarez reach his arrests target.
The testimony stems from an incident that happened back in 2008 where Tavarez and Anderson were involved in operation “buy and bust,” a task force that investigated suspected drug dealing at Club Delicioso in Queens, New York.
According to court reports, two individuals sold Anderson three bags of cocaine for $60.
Prosecutors claim that after Anderson’s buy, he gave Tavarez two of the bags of coke. Tavarez later claimed that four men had sold him the two bags of coke for $100 and Anderson said he had bought one bag of cocaine for $40, which was not the case.
“Tavarez was worried about getting sent back to patrol and you know, the supervisors getting on his case,” Anderson testified last week in Brooklyn Supreme Court.
This transfer of drugs between police officers led to arraignments of Tavarez and Anderson. They were charged for selling drugs, unlawfully imprisoning the suspects, filing false records and other offenses.
Anderson went on to say, “I had decided to give him the drugs to help him out so that he could say he had a buy.”
These corrupt practices would have continued to put innocent people behind bars if one of the falsely accused men had not gone back to the club to request surveillance footage to prove his innocence.
In the video it is revealed that the four men never had any interaction with the undercover cops. They later had the charges against them dropped and the city settled a lawsuit for two of the four framed men, totaling an amount of $300,000.
Anderson admitted in court that this was not first time something like this has happened and claims he was just following suit.
“As a detective you still have a number to reach while you are in the narcotics division,” Anderson told the judge.
Justice Gustin Reichbach, in defense of the innocent, asked Anderson if he ever thought about what consequences this would have on the victims’ lives.
“It’s almost like you have no emotion with it, that they attach the bodies to it, they’re going to be out of jail tomorrow anyway; nothing is going to happen to them anyway,” Anderson responded.
Originally both Anderson and Tavarez faced up to nine years in prison for their roles in the conspiracy, although now they are likely to receive lesser terms due to a cooperation agreement with prosecutors.
As some mainstream media networks continue bashing the Occupy Wall Street protests, the movement publishes its own newspaper at a secret location. RT takes a sneak peek into what the Journal is all about.
Every revolution has a manifesto. Occupy Wall Street does not – yet. What they do have is the Occupied Wall Street Journal. Attracting readers from all walks of life like bees to honey, the newspaper documents the story of the occupation in the words of those out on the streets calling for change in the US.
“I think it’s a very good idea and I think it’s a wonderful movement, and I can concur with a lot of their ideas,” said retired teacher Judy Fineman, holding the newspaper.
“It’s offered by the people here, so I figure it’s probably the best source,” said protester Jessica Morabito.
The paper doesn’t rely on advertising, like most others now in decline. $75,000 in donations were raised in a blink of an eye to start up the project. Context of the revolution, thoughtful articles and practical information on getting involved fill its pages.
“People reading this in subways, in parks, on streets, older people, people who are curious, who heard – there’s a lot of noise being heard at Wall Street, what’s this all about? You need words that are in print that shock and make the reader think,” said managing editor of The Occupied Wall Street Journal Michael Levitin.
A volunteer group runs the paper at a secret location. Among them, Levitin, a former freelance reporter for Newsweek, the LA Times and the Associated Press.
“It was essential to get something into people’s hands that they could pass, share, distribute. It was a tactile visual not embodiment, but representation of what’s happening in the square, that isn’t being told by the mainstream media,” he said.
The newspaper, as well as the revolution, were inspired by the Arab Spring.
“This is fundamentally an outgrowth of events that happened in North Africa in the Arab-speaking world this year. 2011 has been an incredible year,” said Michael Levitin.
The paper’s publisher, Jed Brandt, echoed this. “If the Mubarak regime can fall, this regime can fall,” said Brandt. He believes The Occupied Wall Street Journal has electrified Americans of all ages and backgrounds.
“What most Americans believe is not allowed on television. They have the same commentators telling us the same issues over and over, pointing fingers, telling us who to hate and fear. We need to provide something for the people all across the country that encourages them to participate,” said Brandt.
This seems to have worked for Troy Moslemi, who was once homeless. “I am a law partner. Four years ago, I was really collecting pennies for a hamburger at McDonalds and I can’t forget that,” he said.
“I wanted to come down and see what was going on, so I picked up the newspaper, listening, reading, seeing why people are here,” said laid-off bank worker Bryson Lord.
50,000 copies of the first edition were gone within two days. So were the 100,000 copies of the second one.
From tens of thousands of issues to hundreds of thousands – The Occupied Wall Street Journal has plans to go national in the days to come. From an underground broadsheet put together in the big apple, to a source of news to be spread all across the US.
A conservative group called The Emergency Committee for Israel is rallying against the Occupy Wall Street Protests, a movement they are attempting to make out as anti-Semitic.
An advertisement that will soon hit television stations in New York City and Washington DC asks viewers, “Why are our leaders turning a blind eye to anti-Semitic, anti-Israel attacks?” The promo poses the question as images of US President Barack Obama, Senate Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and other leading democrats are put on screen. To back up the allegations, the Committee also includes a small sampling of sound bites from the Lower Manhattan protests in which some videotaped outliers appear to oust members of the Jewish community.
Among one of the protesters included in the clip is Danny “Lotion Man” Cline, a Jewish resident of New York. While the ad includes a clip of him berating a fellow Jew, he has also been videotaped picking fights with other protesters partaking in Occupy Wall Street and also harming the homeless.
“It is surprising that respectable liberals have praised the protesters while ignoring the anti-Semitism. Liberals have pretended to see nothing hateful and hear nothing hateful, and therefore have said nothing to rebuke their allies,” asks ECI chairman William Kristolin a statement. “Will they now speak up?”
“I’ve been down at the Occupy Wall Street park for over three weeks straight, and I have seen people I think who have tread the line but they do pretty much come from the right wing,” Arun Gupta tells RT. Gupta of the newspaper The Indypendent has offered up his printing press to held publish The Occupied Wall Street Journal, the paper that has become the voice of the movement.
Gupta adds that he thinks any attempts from conservatives to peg the movement as anti-Semitic will fail, noting that “I think it will fall flat on its face cause it’s simply not true.”
Louis Cholden-Brown, an active participant in Occupy Wall Street agrees with Gupta that the advertisement attempts to capitalize on isolated incidents. “This not an anti-Jewish moment. This is not an anti-Zionist movement,” says Cholden-Brown, who himself is Jewish.
So why does The Emergency Committee for Israel want to warn Americans that they should “Tell President Obama and Leader Pelosi to stand up to the mob”?
Gupta says it is just more right-wing fear mongering.
An apple a day could have kept the doctor away for Steve Jobs. That’s what a Harvard Medical School cancer researcher says in a new report that suggests the tech wizard’s knack for unconventional treatment could have caused his death.
In a new report published in the Silicon Valley journal Quora, Dr Ramzi Amri writes that former Apple Computers CEO and founder Steve Jobs could have contributed to his own passing by forgoing conventional medical treatments in lieu of the alternative remedies he largely sought out instead.
“Let me cut to the chase: Mr. Jobs allegedly chose to undergo all sorts of alternative treatment options before opting for conventional medicine,” Amri writes in his article published this week to Quora. “Given the circumstances, it seems sound to assume that Mr. Jobs’ choice for alternative medicine has eventually led to an unnecessarily early death.”
After revealing his diagnosis of pancreatic cancer in October 2003, it was reported that Jobs was attempting to treat the disease by undergoing a special diet. Fortune magazine reported on it at the time that Jobs only consumed certain foods for nine months in an attempt to stop the cancer in its tracks. Staffers at San Francisco’s Greens vegetarian restaurant told the Cult of Mac website that Jobs often hit up their Silicon Valley eatery with his physician, Dr. Dean Ornish.
“Steve Jobs was always in there with his doctor,” said one.”He was treating his cancer.”
While Jobs was known to practice a strict pescatarian diet during his own treatment, one source at the restaurant added that Jobs also insisted that his meals be cooked without any pans.
“He was assertive, but not an asshole,” the staffer said.
“It’s safe to say he was hoping to find a solution that would avoid surgery,” one source person familiar with Jobs’ cancer bout told CNN back in 2008. “I don’t know if he truly believed that was possible. The odd thing is, for us what seemed like an alternative type of thing, for him is normal. It’s not out of the ordinary for Steve.”
Added another person close to the matter: “There was genuine concern on the part of several board members that he may not have been doing the best thing for his health. But Steve is Steve. He can be pretty stubborn.”
Dr. Roderich Schwarz, chairman of surgical oncology at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas, told CNN then that that stubbornness occurs every now and then in his patients. “If they believe an herbal diet can do miracles, they have to make the decision. Every once in a while you have somebody who decides something you wish they wouldn’t,” he said.
Jobs continued his alternative treatment for months before eventually reaching out to traditional practices, including the surgery that could have aided in prolonging his life, which some say now came too little too late.
“Surgery is the only treatment modality that can result in cure,” Dr. Jeffrey Norton, chief of surgical oncology at Stanford and pancreatic cancer expert, wrote in a 2006 journal article.
Dr. Amri adds in his recent piece, “In many cases, a simple enucleation (just cutting out the tumor with a safe margin around it) is enough and leaves no residual side-effects.” Unfortunately, he says that Jobs’ hesitance to go under the knife could have cost him his life.
Amri also writes that in his own research, the survival rate of pancreatic cancer patients that underwent appropriate surgical procedures were as high as 100 percent.
Billionaire hedge fund big-shot George Soros could have helped get the Occupy Wall Street movement off the ground, as donations from the pocketbook of the Budapest-born financier have been tied to the ongoing movement.
Spokespeople for Soros have rejected claims that the billionaire helped fund the movement both directly or indirectly after radio host Rush Limbaugh speculated earlier that the hedge fund magnate was behind the protests. Spokesman Michael Vachon tells Reuters, “Assertions to the contrary are an attempt by those who oppose the protesters to cast doubt on the authenticity of the movement.”
Contributions from Soros to an organization called the Tides Center, however, could have trickled down to the demonstrations, research suggests.
Soros has over time handed over at least $3.5 million to the Tides Center, who in turn has given grants to the anti-capitalist Canadian magazine Adbusters. It is believed that that a call-out campaign started by Adbusters served as a catalyst in the Occupy Wall Street movement, whichas it is approaches its fifth week has managed to spread in cities from coast-to-coast and into other countries internationally.
The Tides Center has given grants of around $185,000 to Adbusters over the last decade or so, which was founded out of Vancouver, British Columbia in 1989. Vancouver, one of the most populated cities in all of Canada, is plotting an Occupy demonstration movement itself in solidarity with the Wall Street protesters this weekend.
Adbusters has responded to the allegations that Soros has helped them by shooting down the suggestions. “George Soros’s ideas are quite good, many of them. I wish he would give Adbusters some money, we sorely need it,” co-founder Kalle Lasn tells Reuters. “He’s never given us a penny.”
It is undeniable, however, that Soros’ did indeed contribute to an organization which in turn helped support the magazine.
Soros has publically both acknowledged and supported the Occupy Wall Street movement, telling members of the press last week that “I can understand their sentiment.”
“The decision not to inject capital into the banks but to effectively relieve them of their bad assets, and them allow them to earn their way out of a hole, gave the banks bumper profits and that allowed them to pay bumper bonuses. As I say, I can sympathize with their grievances,” Soros said.
In September, Soros suggested that the economic state of America could most likely lead the country to enter a double-dip recession.
Pants pockets could be getting a lot heavier from coast-to-coast if Congress approves a plan to ditch the dollar bill in favor of a coin currency.
Lawmakers in Washington introduced a legislation last week that would aim to tackle the massive American deficit by eliminating the paper bill featuring George Washington’s mug and replacing it with a metal coin that would last for ages longer.
Bill backer Rep. David Schweikert of Arizona says that once the transition from bill-to-coin is complete, the US could save “billions of dollars.”
The current dollar bill denomination only has a lifespan of 18 to 40 months. A coin could, however, stand the test of time for up to 30 years. First, though, the treasury would have to transition around $600 million worth of dollar coins to replace the paper bill, something that Schweikert says would take around four years.
“At a time when we are staring down a record-breaking $1.3 trillion deficit, any common-sense measure that cuts billions needs to be given serious consideration,” Rep. Schweikert said before the House of Representatives. Specifically, he said that his plan could save the federal government around $5.5 billion over the course of three decades.
Some lawmakers, however, say that the plan would only put America deeper in debt. “The $1 coin is misleading because it costs taxpayers so much more,” Republican Senator Scott Brown of Massachusetts responded. Along with fellow Mass resident and Democratic rep John Kerry, Brown has proposed a contradictory bill to keep the coin from coming to fruition.
That isn’t to say that Schweikert doesn’t have his supports, though. The Dollar Coin Alliance has formed in support of his legislation, and he has also received backing from Rep. Jeb Hensarling (R-Texas), who is also a member of Congress’ super committee pegged with tackling the debt dilemma.
Schweikert has dubbed his plan the Currency Optimization, Innovation and National Savings project, or COINS.
The Internet went a flutter earlier this year with the release of Google+, the search giant’s highly touted attempt to become the king of social networks.
Months later with the platform practically forgotten, a developer there has used that very service to discredit the flop.
In a post published this week on his own Google+ account, Google engineer Steve Yegge wrote of the company’s
“complete failure to understand platforms”
and instead of applauding his employers, praised Facebook instead for succeeding in the endeavors that Google couldn’t grasp.
It would be incorrect to attest that “Facebook is successful because they built a great product,” writes Yegge. Rather, he adds, “Facebook is successful because they built an entire constellation of products by allowing other people to do the work.” Google+, he insists, was “a knee-jerk reaction” and “a study in short-term thinking” that was made to capitalize on Facebook’s model of being simply a great product—which Yegge says wasn’t the case.
“Our Google+ team took a look at the aftermarket and said: ‘Gosh, it looks like we need some games. Let’s go contract someone to, um, write some games for us,’” says Yegge. “Do you begin to see how incredibly wrong that thinking is now? The problem is that we are trying to predict what people want and deliver it for them.”
Yegge adds, “You can’t do that. Not really. Not reliably. There have been precious few people in the world, over the entire history of computing, who have been able to do it reliably. Steve Jobs was one of them. We don’t have a Steve Jobs here. I’m sorry, but we don’t.”
In all, Yegge’s dangerously wordy diatribe clocked-in at around 4,700 words.
In the hours after he posted his rant on his Google+ page, Yegge received hundreds of comments and thousands of supportive “plus ones” from his followers. The next day, however, he was eating his words and gagging on his earlier Google digs.
It’s fair to say it could be considered groveling.
“Please realize, though, that even now, after six years, I know astoundingly little about Google,” Yegge follows up. “It’s a huge company and they do tons of stuff, and I work off in a little corner of the company (both technically and geographically) that gives me very little insight into anything else going on there. So my opinions, even though they may seem well-formed and accurate, really are just a bunch of opinions from someone who’s nowhere near the center of the action – so I wouldn’t read too much into anything I said.”
That’s okay, Yegge. I don’t think many people read that deeply into your manifesto given its Tolstoy-worthy length, and for your sake we hope that none of your bosses got too deep into it either.
Bathing suit shots posted to Facebook are earning bans to users of the site, who says some images constitute “inappropriate sexual conduct,” even if nudity isn’t in the picture.
On the top of the list of those affected for being too enticing — even while clothed — is 17-year-old celeb Courtney Stodden.
Stodden, the teenage wife of Lost actor Doug Hutchinson, says that her personal Facebook account has been shut-down by the social media site for being sexually inappropriate. Nowhere on her page, however, does the model / recording artist / actress / dancer and all around Internet It-Girl pose in the buff. Not only is she not yet legally adult, but in no images does she pose in an adults-only manner.
Is Facebook taking sites offline on an as-is basis for whatever reason they chose? Stodden’s mother says the ban is because others are envious of her unexplainably-famous offspring.
“It’s the jealousy from the women towards her,” mom Krista Keller tells E! News. “The men love her, the women hate her.The women report the photo because it’s so easy to do. You just click a button. They think she’s too sexy, they all report her together, and it’s done.”
What kind of country are we living in where a fantastically toned 17-year-old blonde jane of all trades can’t pose in her underwear on the Internet? Is this not what the Internet was created for? Stodden has since fired back, this time taking the fight to Twitter; after her Facebook page was shut-down, she posted a scandalous photo of herself with the caption, “Too sexy for Facebook?”
Elsewhere on Facebook, officials for the site have yanked down fan pages that glorify the personality. Her mother still insists, however, that she is just being singled out.
“There is nothing on her page you wouldn’t find anywhere on Facebook,” says Keller. “She has never done any nudity.Not a breast, not even a butt cheek. It’s just her in a bathing suit!”
In the meantime, Stodden still can find solace in the accepting arms of the microblogiverse. She has around 45,000 fans on Twitter. There she generates grotesquely gruesome gems abundant with alliteration, such as this recent message: “Wildly wiggling jauntily jiggling myself to jolting jams as I friskily flaunt a flirty outfit completed w/sexy white 7in. go-go boots.”
Could Keats have made anything as magniloquent himself? Mayhaps. In the meantime, that will just have to be another debate for the Internet to settle.
