Patients' groups expressed horror at the "sick experiment" in which NHS managers have agreed to pay £38 for every casualty that ambulance staff "keep out of Accident and Emergency" (A&E) departments after a 999 call has been made.
The tactic is part of an attempt to manage increasing demand for emergency care amid failings in the GP out-of-hours system.
Documents seen by The Sunday Telegraph disclose that staff at Britain's largest ambulance service have been encouraged to maximise the organisation's income, by securing payments for diverting patients to telephone helplines.
The bonuses are among dozens of schemes being tried out by ambulance trusts across the country as they attempt to improve their emergency response times and help A&E departments meet controversial targets to treat all patients within four hours of arrival.
WHEN THE GOVERNMENT RUNS EVERYONE'S HEALTHCARE YOUR HEALTH IS NOT THEIR FIRST CONCERN.
AS THIS ARTICLE PROVES, THEY IN FACT LOOK FOR WAYS TO DENY SERVICE AND SAVE THEMSELVES MONEY.
IN A FREE MARKET, HEALTH CARE PROVIDER LOOK FOR WAYS TO MAKE MONEY BY PROVIDING THE BEST SERVICE IN THE MOST EFFICIENT WAY.
IF THEY FAIL TO PROVIDE GOOD SERVICE, THEN THEY CAN LOSE THEIR CUSTOMERS OR RELATIONSHIP WITH DOCTORS.
WHEN THE GOVERNMENT IS THE SOLE PROVIDER, THE PUBIC HAS NO WHERE ELSE TO GO.
OBAMACARE WILL INEVITABLE LEAD TO THE SAME PROBLEMS THE NHS HAS.
HAARETZ:The Zionist Organization of America has called U.S. President Barack Obama's stance on Israel "an insult" to all Jews, in a statement released on Friday.
"We consider Obama?s actions an affront and an insult to all Jews in America and throughout all the world," the statement said.
The ZOA also suggested that Obama's behavior is biased against Israel.
"Obama apparently also made new and substantial demands of Israel while making no demands of the anti-peace regime of Mahmoud Abbas? Palestinian Authority," the statement said.
The ZOA has also demanded of U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to apologize to New York constituents for falsely claiming, as a Senator, to support an undivided Jerusalem as Israel's capital.
The Zionist organization said that Clinton has misled them, and quoted her saying in 2007 that she supported Israel's right to exist in safety as a Jewish state, with defensible borders and an undivided Jerusalem as its capital, must never be questioned."
HILLARY LIED. AND OBAMA LIED.
THEY ARE NOT ON ISRAEL'S SIDE.
IT'S TIME FOR JEWS WHO VOTE DEMOCRAT TO STOP ALLOWING THEMSELVES TO BE DUPES OF THE LEFT.
JEWS MUST DECIDE WHOSE SIDE THEY'RE ON: ISRAEL'S OR THE LEFT'S.
YOU CANNOT BE A GOOD JEW A BAD ZIONIST.
YOU CANNOT BE A GOOD ZIONIST AND A GOOD DEMOCRAT.
JUST AS YOU CANNOT BE A GOOD AMERICAN AND A LEFTIST.
LEFTISM IS DIAMETRICALLY OPPOSED TO OUR FOUNDING PRINCIPLES.

US hopes to get immediate Arab League approval for proximity talks; PA official: DC meetings ended without progress on east Jerusalem construction freeze.
... the US is demanding of Israel ... commitments by Saturday so it can take them to the Arab League meeting in Libya and receive that organization's backing for starting proximity talks.
... the administration’s treatment of Netanyahu during his meeting with Obama created the impression of a deep crisis in relations. As Jackson Diehl wrote in The Washington Post, the White House’s refusal to allow non-official photographers record the Obama-Netanyahu meeting, and the fact that no statement was issued afterward, led to the impression that “Netanyahu is being treated as if he were an unsavory Third World dictator, needed for strategic reasons but conspicuously held at arms length.”
According to various Israeli sources, the Obama administration is asking for Israel to commit to some type of limitation on building in east Jerusalem; to show a willingness to deal with the so-called core issues of borders, refugee and Jerusalem already in the indirect talks; and to agree to a number of confidence building measures, including the release of hundreds of Fatah prisoners.
There were also reports, not confirmed, that the administration had asked for a commitment to extend the moratorium on housing starts in the West Bank settlements beyond the 10-months originally declared.
One source in the Prime Minister’s Office said the goal of the dialogue with the US was to find a way to start the proximity talks and “put these problems behind us.”
The key problem with the US has to do with Jerusalem, with the administration making it clear in recent days that it did not accept Netanyahu’s declaration at the AIPAC conference on Monday evening that Jerusalem was not a settlement, but rather Israel’s capital, and that building would continue there.
SCREWING ISRAEL TO CURRY FAVOR WITH THE LIKES OF GADDAFY.
IF THAT ISN'T ANTISEMITIC, THEN NOTHING IS.
BUT TO DIO IT ON SHABBAT HAGDOL!?!? UNREAL. SHABBAT HAGADOL:
It was in Egypt that Israel celebrated the very first Shabbat Ha-Gadol on the tenth of Nissan, five days before their redemption. On that day, the Children of Israel were given their first commandment which applied only to that Shabbat, but not to future generations: On the tenth day of this month [Nissan]... each man should take a lamb for the household, a lamb for each home (Exodus 12:3).
ON THIS SHABBAT HAGDOL, OBAMA IS ASKING JEWS TO SACRIFICE JERUSALEM FOR THE ARABS.
UNREAL. ANTISEMITIC. AIN'T GONNA HAPPEN. ONLY AN ANTISEMITE COULD DEMAND IT ON THISOF ALL DAYS.
Just 9 percent of Jewish Israelis think US President Barack Obama’s administration is more pro-Israel than pro-Palestinian, according to a Smith Research poll taken this week on behalf of The Jerusalem Post.
Forty-eight percent said that the Obama presidency favored the Palestinian side, 30% said his administration was neutral and 13% chose not to express an opinion for the survey, which has a margin of error of 4.5 percentage points.
The poll of a representative sample of 500 Israelis was conducted on Sunday and Monday after weeks of heightened tensions between Obama and Israel, but before the crisis intensified during Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu’s visit to the White House.
I WISH THE JEWS HERE IN THE USA WOULD WAKE UP ALREADY!
@markknoller At a fundraiser last night in Baltimore, VP Biden thanked God his late mother didn't hear him drop the F-bomb at the bill-signing Tuesday. 3/25 9:45 A.M. -

PBS's Jim Lehrer on Tuesday wrongly accused Republicans of always being against major social legislation in this country including the Civil Rights Act, Social Security, and Medicare.
"[T]hrough history, recent history in particular, Republicans have opposed things like Social Security, Medicare, even civil rights legislation, but then, once they lost, they took some deep breaths and moved on, and then finally ended up embracing many of these major changes in -- in laws and in the way we do business here," the News Hour host amazingly said to his guest Sen. Jon Kyl (R-Ariz.).
Of course, nothing could be further from the truth, and Kyl quickly corrected Lehrer.
In 1935 - the 74th congress - the US Senate had 69 Dems and 31 GOP’ers, so nearly 50% of the GOP was with the Soc Sec legislation. The House Had Democrats 322 and Republicans 103. So nearly 80% of the GOP in the House voted for the legislation.
In the 89th Congress - in 1965 - the Senate had 33 GOP’ers, so 33% voted for the Medicare legislation. The House had 136 GOP’ers so about 48% voted for it.
Civil Rights legislation had very high GOP %, too.
They were all bi-partisan. As was NAFTA - another huge piece of legislation.
Obamacare gets a big fat 0% of the GOP - and this says EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT OBAMA.
INSTEAD OF BEHAVING LIKE THE POST-PARTISAN HE CLAIMED HE WAS DURING THE CAMPAIGN, AND CRAFTING POST-PARTISAN REFORM BILL, HE AND PELOSI AND REID RAMMED THROUGH A SOCIALIST BOONDOGGLE.
NOT ONLY DID OBAMA DISREGARD ANY POSSIBILITY OF BIPARTISANSHIP, HE ALSO IGNORED THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE.
INCREDIBLY: OBAMA AND REID AND PELOSI AND RAHM DID THIS AFTER THE ELECTION OF SCOTT BROWN.
REGULAR READERS KNOW WE SCOOP ALL THE BIGGIES ALL THE TIME.,
I'm sure the Army brass is thrilled to have a traitorous scumbag from the NY Times watching over them...
(Powerline)- Solomon B. Watson IV was the top legal officer of the New York Times back in 2005 and 2006 when, notoriously, it published two stories compromising top-secret counter-terrorism programs.
... The Obama administration has now nominated Watson to be general counsel of the Army.
IF OBAMA WAS A CRYPTO-MUSLIM AND RADICAL LEFTIST WHO WANTED TO DESTROY THE USA, WOULD HE BE DOING ANYTHING DIFFERENTLY?
Claims that Israel is trafficking the organs of dead Palestinians are printed in an official United Nations document, exposing the world body to charges it is doing the bidding of anti-Israel countries such as Iran and Libya.
The revelation comes as Iran and Libya are leading candidates for election this year to the UN Human Rights Council, which the world body bills as the world's foremost human rights monitoring group.
The election of Iran would be an affront to Canada, which each year leads a campaign in the UN General Assembly to have Iran's human rights record condemned -- invariably amid substantial opposition from Iranian sympathizer states such as Cuba, Venezuela and even Afghanistan.
Israel's organ trafficking claim is alleged by the Libya founded International Organization for the Elimination of all Forms of Racial Discrimination (EAFORD), whose website says it is "focused on the ideological systems of apartheid and Zionism."
[...]
Bernie Farber, the Canadian Jewish Congress chief executive, said the UN was involved in distributing allegations which reflect age-old "blood libels" accusing Jews of using human blood in certain of their rituals.
"Not only is there no proof, it is a take-off of the historical calumny of the Jewish blood libel, and that this is coming out under the auspices of the United Nations, and from an accredited UN organization, is breathtaking in its shame," Mr. Farber said.
It's not too hard to guess who led to the idea of putting this on their website and following up on one of the sickest things Scandanavia coughed up in recent years. No one with common sense should associate themselves with such revolting people.
Neuer told The Jerusalem Post that the UNHRC in the past has asked UN Watch to change the language in documents that UN Watch plans to submit, including in this session where UNHRC asked UN Watch to edit their words with reference to Iran and Libya.
If UN Watch can’t use the word “regime” when talking about Iran, then one would think that a “blood libel” would be unacceptable, Neuer said.
Allegations that Israeli soldiers killed Palestinians to harvest their organs were widely publicized this summer in an article written by Swedish journalist Donald Bostrom for the country’s largest circulated daily, Aftonbladet.
Israel has denied the story. Bostrom later admitted that he relied solely on the testimony of Palestinian families for his story.
Foreign Ministry spokesman Yigal Palmor said it was “outrageous” that the allegations were published on a UN Web site.
“The only organ that was stolen is in people’s brains,” said Palmor.
“The most preposterous, ridiculous and horrendous of all lies can gain respectability at the UN,” he warned.
“I am deeply revolted by the fact that anyone in their right mind can actually advance such horribly surrealistic accusations,” said Palmor.
But it's no longer surprising.
According to the NGO Eye on the UN, EAFORD was founded in Libya and accredited at the UN in 1981. Its Web site states that it has focused on the ideological systems of Apartheid and Zionism.
The office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights had no response to the matter.
Separately on Wednesday, the US chastised the UN Human Rights Council for its continued focus on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, as it opposed four resolutions on that matter which the council passed.
Since the council’s inception in 2006, most of its resolutions censuring countries have focused on Israel.
US Ambassador Eileen Chamberlain Donahoe told the council “it is too often exploited as a platform to single out Israel, which undermines its credibility.”
And that's one more reason why people with common sense should back away from the UN. Which, while we're on the subject, has by contrast allowed people like the following to get away with sodomy:
As the United Nations worked to restore peace and protect women and children in Africa’s troubled Cote d’Ivoire three years ago, it announced it was investigating “serious allegations of wide-spread sexual exploitation and abuse.”
Shockingly, the alleged perpetrators were with the U.N.—Moroccan troops serving as peacekeepers.
A confidential probe by U.N. and Moroccan investigators turned up evidence that 14 soldiers were involved, according to a person familiar with the matter; DNA analysis showed some of them had fathered children with the victims. But the U.N. has never disclosed the results of the investigation or whether any of the soldiers were punished.
The Moroccan government has stated that no conclusive evidence of abuse was found and that it dropped all charges.
And it figures that Morocco would likely excuse their actions too. That's the United Nazis for you, who consider Israel worse than Islamic-bred violence.
If you'd like to read about the history of the Hurva Synagogue, which recently underwent reconstruction, here's an article about it, and even a radio report.
I told you this was coming. Increasingly, those who think Israel is to blame for the lack of peace in the Middle East, and who view pushing Israel back to barely defensible borders as the answer, have been pushing hard the meme that Israel is endangering U.S. troops.
Today, that meme is pushed by Robert Wright in the N.Y. Times:
America’s perceived support of — or at least acquiescence in — Israel’s more inflammatory policies endangers American troops abroad. In the long run, it will also endanger American civilians at home, funneling more terrorism in their direction.
...the original justification for al-Qaeda attacks on the U.S. was the presence of U.S. troops in Saudi Arabia. U.S. troops remain there as well as in numerous other Muslim countries. So should we pull out all our troops from all Muslim countries?
And while we are at it, should we end our support for "moderate" Muslim governments because it angers the fanatics? The result of giving in to the Muslim "street" is an endless parade of appeasements and abandonment of friends.
APPEASING NEVER LED TO PEACE. NOT ONCE.
NEITHER CAN HARMING OUR ALLIES.
SO THE ANTI-ISRAEL ARGUMENT IS NOT ONLY ANTISEMITIC, IT'S BAD POLICY.
ARABS AND MUSLIMS HAVE KILLED US TROOPS.
ISRAELIS HAVE NOT.
THOSE WHO TARGET ISRAEL ARE WRONG - AND THEIR POLICIES WILL HARM US.
Sources close to the Secretary General of the UN have informed The Astute Bloggers that a comprehensive peace plan has been agreed upon by the Gang of Four.
According to this agreement Peace in Our Time, and the rescue of the Global Construction Industry, has been secured without the intervention of Extraterrestrial Forces.
It all started when New York Mayor Bloomberg agreed to a petition from the Haudenosaunee to cease contruction of Skyscrapers in New York. According to the Mayor's office, all existing Skyscrapers will be laid down and converted to Longhouses. As soon as the present owners can secure 120% financing via AIG, the entire portfolio of buildings constructed (illegally of course) since 1646 will be deeded to the Haudenosaunee.
Meanwhile, the Chinese have agreed with the Dalai Lama to cease all construction activity in Tibet, and commence their exit from the Occupied Territories at the beginning of the next Chinese New Year.
Remarkably, the Governor of Texas, Rick Perry, has agreed to return 48% of Texas - also known as the Occupado - to Mexico. The Right of Return program for the 55 million Mexican descendants of the "Alamo 17" will continue unabated.
Regional differences of opinion, for example Kashmir; the border between Columbia and Venezuela; Kuril Islands; The Falklands etc. have been deemed of minor significance.
Therefore, if Israel would just surrender the whole world would be perfect.
Chavez knows that the expropriation of ØK could upset the fragile food supply in Venezuela.
Meanwhile ØK cannot afford to quit Venezuela... and as long as Chavez can keep the Danes on the hook, he will have some certainty that at least part of the food supply chain will remain intact.

THIS IS JUST MORE PROOF THAT THE LEFT LOVES SOCIALISM MORE THAN DEMOCRACY.
When the euroleft couldn't get their EUSSR Constitution passed the democratic way - when it was actually rejected at the polls, they bent the rules - or broke them - and used an UNDEMOCRATIC method.
The Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe (TCE), (commonly referred to as the European Constitution or as the Constitutional Treaty), was an unratified international treaty intended to create a consolidated constitution for the European Union (EU). It would have replaced the existing European Union treaties with a single text, given legal force to the Charter of Fundamental Rights, and expanded Qualified Majority Voting into policy areas which had previously been decided by unanimity among member states.
The Treaty was signed on 29 October 2004 by representatives of the then 25 EU member states. It was later ratified by 18 member states, which included referendums endorsing it in Spain and Luxembourg. However the rejection of the document by French and Dutch voters in May and June 2005 brought the ratification process to an end.
All EU member states had to ratify the Treaty before it could enter into law. A national ratification was completed and registered when the instruments of ratification were lodged with the government of Italy. The month following the deposition of the last national ratification saw the Treaty enter into force across the EU.
Under the original timetable set by the German Presidency of the Council of the European Union in the first half of 2007, the Treaty was scheduled to be fully ratified by the end of 2008, thus entering into force on 1 January 2009. This plan failed however, primarily due to the initial rejection of the Treaty in 2008 by the Irish electorate in a referendum, a decision which was reversed in a second referendum in 2009. Ireland, as required by its constitution, was the only member state to hold referendums on the Treaty. The Czech instrument of ratification was the last to be deposited in Rome on 13 November 2009.[18] Therefore, the Treaty of Lisbon entered into force on 1 December 2009.[19][20]
When the Left in the USA - led by Obama, Axelrod, Rahm, Reid and Pelosi - couldn't get their way democratically, they also bent or broke the rules.
THEY LIED, CHEATED, AND BRIBED THEIR WAY TO VICTORY.
IT IS THE FIRST MAJOR PIECE OF LEGISLATION IN AMERICAN HISTORY WHICH IS NOT BI-PARTISAN.
This tells you everything you need to know about them.
It's why they have fundamentally more in common with Chavez and Che than Washington or Lincoln.

Barry Rubin at the Gloria Center writes about how the UN has once again shown why it's worthless and atrocious - they gave a Rafik Hariri memorial award to Tayyip Erdogan, who's not only already showing why he doesn't deserve it, but is a friend of Syria's, the very autocracy that had Hariri murderered in the first place:
The first winner is Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Of course, Erdogan is an Islamist who is an ally of Syria, the murderer of Hariri.
Why did Erdogan get the $200,000 award? According to the announcement, the reason is that he organized the first conference of mayors that led to the creation of a worldwide organization of mayors, thus creating another round of meetings so that the budgets of cities can be spent on plane fare and luxury hotels for mayors to travel around the world. How's that for making the lives of urban people better?
Apparently, the fact that Erdogan is closely cooperating with the people who killed Hariri, after whom the award was named, did not strike the panel as ironic.
And of course Erdogan has also taken Turkey into alignment with Iran and Hizballah, the other forces which are trying to control Hariri's country and against whom the late prime minister fought.
What they've done is to invalidate their own so-called award, and show it's all a sham and a joke. Such utterly disgusting people.
With the president signing this unwanted and “transformative” government takeover of our health care system today with promises impossible to keep, let’s not get discouraged. Don’t get demoralized. Get organized!
... We’re paying particular attention to those House members who voted in favor of Obamacare and represent districts that Senator John McCain and I carried during the 2008 election ... we’ll be working to make sure that those who replace them are Commonsense Conservatives.

A Pyrrhic victory (pronounced /ˈpɪrɪk/) is a victory with such devastating cost to the victor, it carries the implication that another such will ultimately cause defeat.
Sen. Scott Brown (R., Mass.) tells National Review Online that it’s “important” for the GOP to fight to repeal Obamacare.
“It has morphed into this total takeover, with a complete lack of bipartisan support,” he says. “People are disgusted with the process. If the Democrats keep doing what they’re doing, they’ll be disregarding the will of the voters.”
Brown adds that anger about Obamacare is not just growing amongst conservatives.
“I don’t think it’s just conservatives,” he says. “I think that is the mistake folks are making. Many Americans are upset about the process, the overspending, the lack of accountability, the backroom deals, the Medicare cuts, and the takeover of student loans.”
The Washington Examiner describes how things were when Social Security and Medicare were passed in a truly bi-partisan fashion — 64% of GOP senators and 80% of Republican congressmen supported Social Security, for example:
both of those landmark programs were approved with strong bipartisan support in both the Senate and House.
The Senate vote on Social Security in 1935 was 77-6, with 64 Democrats being joined by 14 Republicans.
In the House, the 373 votes for Social Security included 77 Republicans.
When Medicare passed in 1965, the 68-21 Senate vote included 13 Republicans, while 65 Republicans were among the 313 affirmative House votes.
Perhaps it is no wonder then that ramming through the healthcare bill has not helped Obama’s poll ratings. CNN: “health care was the policy area that drew the second highest negative rating, with 58 percent registering disapproval. The highest negative rating was 62 percent for his handling of the federal deficit.”

There are several problems with this theory. One is that more and more oil is being found several miles beneath the surface of the Earth well below where dinosaurs roamed and miles from where dead plankton ever sank.
There's a competing theory - ABIOGENIC OIL - it's a minority theory now, but that may soon change. (This is how science progresses: Once plate-tectonics was a minority theory. SO was the meteor explanation for the massive dinosaur extinctions. Both are dominant now.)
WIKI:
The abiogenic hypothesis argues that petroleum was formed from deep carbon deposits, perhaps dating to the formation of the Earth. The presence of methane on Saturn's moon Titan is cited as evidence supporting the formation of hydrocarbons without biology. Supporters of the abiogenic hypothesis suggest that a great deal more petroleum exists on Earth than commonly thought, and that petroleum may originate from carbon-bearing fluids that migrate upward from the mantle.
Although the abiogenic hypothesis was accepted by some geologists in the former Soviet Union, most geologists now consider the biogenic formation of petroleum[1] Although evidence exists for abiogenic formation of methane and hydrocarbon gases within the Earth,[2][3] studies indicate they are not produced in commercially significant quantities (i.e. a median abiogenic hydrocarbon content in extracted hydrocarbon gases of 0.02%).[4] The abiogenic origin of petroleum has also recently been reviewed in detail by Glasby, who raises a number of objections, including that there is no direct evidence to date of abiogenic petroleum (liquid crude oil and long-chain hydrocarbon compounds).[1] scientifically supported.
Although the biogenic theory for petroleum was first proposed by Georg Agricola in the 16th century, various abiogenic hypotheses were proposed in the nineteenth century, most notably by Alexander von Humboldt, the Russian chemist Dmitri Mendeleev and the French chemist Marcellin Berthelot. Since that time, the abiogenic hypotheses have lost ground to the view that petroleum is a fossil fuel.
Abiogenic hypotheses were revived in the last half of the twentieth century by Russian and Ukrainian scientists, and more interest was generated in the West by the publication in 1999 of The Deep Hot Biosphere by Thomas Gold. Gold cited the discovery of thermophile bacteria in the Earth's crust as new support for the postulate that these bacteria could explain the existence of certain biomarkers in extracted petroleum.[5]
MORE:
Certain chemicals found in naturally occurring petroleum contain chemical and structural similarities to compounds found within many living organisms. These include terpenoids, terpenes, pristane, phytane, cholestane, chlorins and porphyrins, which are large, chelating molecules in the same family as heme and chlorophyll. Materials which suggest certain biological processes include tetracyclic diterpane and oleanane.
The presence of these chemicals in crude oil is assumed to be as a result of the inclusion of biological material in the oil. This is predicated upon the theory that these chemicals are released by kerogen during the production of hydrocarbon oils.
However, since the advent of abiogenic hypothesis, the veracity of these assumptions has been called into question and new lines of evidence used to provide alternative explanations. Some are provided by many scientists from around the world including Russia.
AND:
The geological argument for abiogenic oil
Given the known occurrence of methane and the probable catalysis of methane into higher atomic weight hydrocarbon molecules, the abiogenic hypothesis considers the following to be key observations in support;
The serpentinite synthesis, graphite synthesis and spinel catalysation models prove the process is viable [22][27]
The likelihood that abiogenic oil seeping up from the mantle is trapped beneath sediments which effectively seal mantle-tapping faults [26]
Mass-balance calculations for supergiant oilfields which argue that the calculated source rock could not have supplied the reservoir with the known accumulation of oil, implying deep recharge (Kudryavtsev, 1951)
Incidental evidence
The proponents of abiogenic oil use several arguments which draw on a variety of natural phenomena in order to support the hypothesis
The modelling of some researchers which shows the Earth was accreted at relatively low temperature, thereby perhaps preserving primordial carbon deposits within the mantle, to drive abiogenic hydrocarbon production [49]
The presence of methane within the gases and fluids of mid-ocean ridge spreadingD centre hydrothermal fields[50]
Persistent Geo-Blunder Discovered: Huge Boost for Oil and Gas Exploration
For decades, an unsuspected geological blunder has limited crucial technical understanding of how, where and why petroleum and natural gas deposits form. Exposing and correcting that vital mistake offer the promise of new insights and potentially vast new energy-resource discoveries.
Since the 1930s, the idea of mantle convection has been inextricably rooted in common geological interpretations of the Earth's dynamics. In a paper just published in the March 25, 2010 issue of Current Science, San Diego geophysicist J. Marvin Herndon of Transdyne Corporation discloses a very serious problem with the prevailing concept of convection in the Earth's mantle and reveals the profound implications on oil and gas exploration.
For decades geologists and geophysicists have assumed that convection occurs within the Earth's mantle. But according to Herndon's discovery, Earth-mantle convection is physically impossible. As he explains in his paper, the mantle is compressed by its own weight and the weight of the crust, so that its bottom is about 62% more dense than the top. The negligible amount of thermal expansion that might occur at the bottom, less than 1%, cannot cause bottom-mantle matter to float to the surface or make the mantle top-heavy, necessary conditions for convection.
Herndon's discovery has revolutionary implications for geologists, who have for decades misapplied mathematical convection-justification relationships to the gravity-compressed mantle; such relationships are only valid for incompressible fluids.
Familiar topical names, such as Pangaea, Gondwanaland and Plate Tectonics, will begin to fade into history, replaced by a more correct 21st Century understanding of geology and geodynamics without mantle convection.
In Herndon's view, virtually all major geological activity is the consequence of a single process: Earth-crust fragmentation - splitting the Earth's crust to form new surface area to accommodate decompression-increased planetary volume.
Crustal fragmentation, called rifting, provides all of the crucial components for petroleum-deposit formation: basin, reservoir, source, and seal. Rifting causes the formation of deep basins, as presently occurring in the Afar triangle of Northeastern Africa. Augmented by heat channeled upwards from deep within the Earth, uplift from sub-surface swelling can sequester sea-flooded lands to form halite evaporate deposits, lead to dome formation, and can make elevated land susceptible to erosion processes, thus providing sedimentary material for reservoir rock in-filling of basins. Moreover, crustal fragmentation potentially exposes deep basins to sources of abiotic mantle methane and, although still controversial, methane-derived hydrocarbons.
The popularity of plate tectonics arises from its seeming to explain major features of the ocean floor, but popularity is not a measure of scientific correctness. Science is a logical process, not a democratic process.
Plate tectonic theory is based upon the idea that ocean floor, continuously produced at mid-oceanic ridges, as illustrated at left, moves like a conveyer belt, ultimately being “subducted” and re-circulated by assumed convection currents in the mantle, as illustrated at right [3-5].
Indeed, compelling evidence, e.g., seafloor magnetic striations, exists to support the idea of seafloor being continuously produced at mid-oceanic ridges and moving away from the ridges. The magnetic stripes are symmetrical on each side of the ridge and are older in age the greater distance from the ridge. Moreover, ocean floor is observed to plunge downward into oceanic trenches.
BUT...
Herndon ... found a serious problem [6]. Indeed, the critical assumption of mantle convection is truly the Achilles heel of plate tectonics.
When a fluid is heated from beneath, it expands becoming lighter, less dense, than the fluid above it. This top-heavy arrangement is unstable, so fluid motions result as the fluid attempts to restore stability. The top-heavy arrangement occurs because the temperature at the bottom is hotter than at the top. This is convection. Not only is the Earth’s mantle not a fluid, but the weight of over-burden rock causes compression within the mantle, which increases with depth. Matter at the bottom of the mantle is about 62% more dense than at the top, as shown in the figure at right. Heating bottom-rock causes a miniscule increase in volume, hence miniscule decrease in density, much, much less than 1%. This is far, far too little to make the "parcel" of bottom-mantle light enough to float to the top, not enough to make the mantle top-heavy; the result is no mantle-convection at all.
Often Earth-mantle convection is (wrongly) "justified" by calculating a high Rayleigh Number. But, as discovered by J. Marvin Herndon, Lord Rayleigh's derivation was based upon constant density and, thus, is not applicable to the Earth's mantle [6].
So, unequivocally, plate tectonics theory is not correct. Why? Because the crucial underlying part is physically impossible, which means that plate tectonics theory is wrong. That might not be surprising as plate tectonics is an incomplete theory, a theory without an energy source to power geodynamic activity.
HE GOES ON:
n 1933, Ott C. Hilgenberg ... published his idea that in the distant past for some unknown reason the Earth was smaller, without ocean basins, and that subsequently the Earth expanded [7,8]. The photo at left shows a series of globes made by Hilgenberg to illustrate his idea. An alternative to plate tectonics theory, Earth expansion theory, as espoused by S. Warren Carey [9, 10] and others, has met with resistance because of the lack of knowledge of an energy source of sufficient magnitude and because it is based upon the idea that Earth expansion occurs mainly along mid-oceanic ridges and thus occurred during the last 180 million years, as the oldest ocean floor is no older than that [11].
... The principal impediment to the idea of Earth expansion has been the lack of knowledge of a mechanism that could provide the necessary energy [13, 14]without departing from the known physical laws of nature [15]. In 1982, Adrian E. Scheidegger [16] stated concisely the prevailing view: "Thus, if expansion on the postulated scale occurred at all, a completely unknown energy source must be found."
Recognizing that neither plate tectonics theory nor Earth expansion theory is an adequate description of the dynamics of the Earth as a whole, J. Marvin Herndon proposed a new geodynamic theory, called Whole-Earth Decompression Dynamics [12], which reconciles certain elements of those two seemingly divergent theories into one unified theory of Earth dynamics. Moreover, Herndon disclosed a completely unknown energy source, which follows from fundamental considerations related to planetary formation [17-20], that is sufficient to power geodynamics.
USE THE LINK TO READ HIS THEORY.
HERE IS A SIMPLE YET COMPELLING VIDEO OF WHAT THE EXPANDING EARTH THEORY LOOKS LIKE:
AND HERE IS THE FIRST OF A 14 PART LECTURE ON THE SUBJECT:
I THINK THE THEORY IS INTRIGUING, INF NOT COMPELLING.
IT EXPLAINS A LOT OF THINGS THAT THE CURRENTLY DOMINANT THEORIES DO NOT.
AND IT WOULD MEAN WE ARE NOT GOING TO RUN OUT OF OIL OR GAS.
With our Democrat dominated media accusing Tea Partiers of shouting the N-word at two black Congressmen in D.C. on Saturday (shouts which cannot be heard on video of the scene), it is worth noting that a cadre of leftists were seen shouting racial slurs at a Sunnyvale CA Tea Party last summer.
I posted at the time about this cadre's "pretend false flag" operation, where they shouted things that cleverly identified themselves as false flaggers. That is, they were being honest about only pretending to be Tea Partiers, somewhat in the vein of the conservative Protest Warrior group:
Sunnyvale dirt-bagger, brandishing homosexual slurs at the crowd (never newsworthy).
But it turns out they went beyond this "honest" false flag operation, as reported in the comments of last summer's post:
I was at the San Jose Tea party and these two assholes were yelling deport all brown people at anyone that stopped in front of them, trying to alienate the mexican-americans driving by or in the crowd.
I can confirm the "deport all brown people" shouts. I wasn't in position at the time to see who it came from so I left it out of my post, but apparently it was the dirt-baggers in the photo above.
The Iranian fellow in front is named Karim Mansouri. The blonde fellow with him was calling himself Derek Andrew when I first encountered him and his cohorts outside the Marine recruiting station in Mountain View. Now he calls himself Derek Andrew Kalim (or Kalimi):
Derek was upset at what he claimed were my mis-characterizations, which is ironic in the light of what turns out to be his genuine false-flag operation. In retrospect, I was much too easy on the whole group.
If there was any racial slur shouted in Washington the other day, it was almost certainly a Derek Andrew type false-flag: one half of an implicit conspiracy between activists and the media to slander their political opposition. More likely there was no epithet at all, just a lie by Representatives Cleaver and Lewis that was amplified by our dishonest media. (The Hill's air-headed social-scene reporter, Christina Wilkie, added a spitting charge and called the inaudible N-words an "assault.")
Our Democrat Congressmen do not need the assistance of activists to conspire with the Christina Wilkies of the world in slandering conservatives, but they will gladly make use of whatever help they can get. Thus Tea Partiers should try to positively identify any false flaggers they come across. The more we document, the less they can lie.
create some jobs — that would be a true game changer.
HOW, BY WAVING HIS MAGIC WAND!?!?
SHEESH.
OBAMA'S POLICIES ARE RETARDING ECONOMIC GROWTH. THE FAILURE OF THE PORKULUS AND HIS ADMINISTRATIONS UNWILLINGNESS TO HELP BUSINESSES IS ONE MAJOR REASON OBAMA AND THE DEMOCRATS ARE DOING SO BADLY.
IF OBAMA WANTS TO CREATE JOBS, ALL HE HAS TO DO IS REPEAL HIS POLICIES AND PASS GOP POLICIES
When things looked bad in Iraq, Bush didn't tuck tail and run; he SURGED.
Obama and Hillary and Biden and Kerry opposed The Surge.
They wanted to tuck tail and run, but they lost that political battle - because Bush as Commander in Chief could manage the War - and The Surge worked.
Iraq was saved.
Now - right here in the USA - things look bad: the Left just passed Obamacare, the biggest increase in govenment power since Executive Order 9066 and maybe the worst legislation since the Kansas-Nebraska Act.
But we aren't gonna tuck tail and run like liberals.
We're gonna SURGE - between now and Novmeber we're gonna Surge and we're gonna CLEAN HOUSE.
At the SOTU, Obama rudely attacked the SCOTUS for knocking down a key provision of McCain-Feingold because it was... er um UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
There had been a written dissent (by JP Stevens), but Obama evidently wasn't satisfied with that and felt the need to directly attack the Court to their faces during his SOTU.
It was rude. It was unprecedented. It was hypocritical; (after all, Obama and the left are always saying that the Constitution is a living document; therefore it means whatever the Court says it means).
SO, WHY DID OBAMA DO IT!!?
Two reasons:
First, Obama and his new Senior White House Counsel Bob Bauer - who is nothing but a slimy election law lawyer - know that they will have to utilize every stinking crooked Chicago Machine trick in the book to hang-on this November. And Obama was pissed that the SCOTUS was leveling the playing field for Obama's opposition.
Second, Obama was trying to intimidate the SCOTUS with the expectation that if Obamacare passed, that it would go to the Court. Obama was drawing a line in the sand, trying to exert as much intimidating power as he could.
Too bad for Obama Alito wasn't having any of it - neither him or Roberts. Or Thomas or Scalia.
Which means, Obamacare will come down to Kennedy.
And there's non predicting how this man will ever vote.
In this case, there's only one correct way to vote: the mandate is UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
WHY AM I SO SURE?
SIMPLE:
If a statute was good enough, then the anti-alcohol lobby would have only needed something like the Volstead Act and wouldn't have needed to pass or have passed the 18th Amendment in order to PROHIBIT the sale of alcohol. The 18th Amendment is what gave force to the Volstead Act.
THEREFORE: the Left needs to pass a constitutional amendment before Obamacare can be enforced.
It should take the court about 10 minutes to overturn Obamacare.
