A 37-year-old JPMorgan Chase & Co executive director who died from unknown causes Feb. 3 appears to be the latest in a series of untimely deaths among finance workers and business leaders around the world in the past three weeks.
Ryan Crane, a JPMorgan Chase & Co. employee who in a 14-year career at the New York-based bank rose to executive director of a unit that trades blocks of stocks for clients, died in his Stamford, Connecticut, home, according to the website of Leo P. Gallagher & Son Funeral Home in Greenwich, Connecticut. The cause of death will be determined when a toxicology report is completed in about six weeks, a spokeswoman for the state’s chief medical examiner told Bloomberg.

Crane, who left a wife and son, started at JPMorgan in equities trading after graduating from Harvard University in 1999, according to his profile on the LinkedIn Corp. website. Following promotions, he worked as an executive director, or a rank above vice president and below managing director, in the bank’s Americas Program Trading group. Program traders handle transactions in baskets of at least 15 stocks, often for mutual-fund clients seeking to rebalance index-linked portfolios.
“He was known as the ‘Gentle Giant’ by his friends and family,” according to the funeral home’s death notice.
This latest death in the U.S. follows a series of untimely deaths among finance workers and business leaders over the past three weeks.
On Sunday, Jan. 26, London police found William Broeksmit, a 58-year-old former senior executive at Deutsche Bank AG, dead in his home after an apparent suicide.
Monday, Jan. 27: Tata Motors managing director Karl Slym died after falling from a hotel room in Bangkok in what police said could be possible suicide.
Slym, 51, had attended a board meeting of Tata Motors’ Thailand unit in the Thai capital and was staying with his wife in a room on the 22nd floor of the Shangri-La hotel. Hotel staff found his body on Sunday on the fourth floor, which juts out above lower floors.

Enormous Cone Head of Paracas Peru: Lost Human History Revealed

Subject: Enormous Cone Head of Paracas Peru: Lost Human History Revealed


Dear V.K. Durham,  
   
In 1928, in the Paracas desert 
peninsula, on the south coast of 
Peru, Peruvian archaeologist, Julio 
Tello, made an amazing discovery 
of a massive and elaborate 
graveyard containing tombs filled 
with the remains of individuals with 
the largest elongated skulls found 
anywhere in the world. These have 
come to be known as the 'Paracas 
skulls'. 

Tello found more than 300 of these 
elongated skulls, which are believed 
to date back around 3,000 years. A 
DNA analysis has now been conducted 
with funds raised by Brien Koestler, 
owner of a small museum south of Lima, 
Peru that is devoted to these mysterious 
skulls.

Foerster has released preliminary 
information regarding the genetics of 
these skulls. Keep in mind that the 
geneticist he hired was not told the history 
of these samples in advance. Thus, the 
geneticist was able to examine them 
without any preconceived notions. What 
the geneticist found was absolutely 
shocking:

"Whatever the sample labeled 3A has came 
from - it had mtDNA with mutations unknown 
in any human, primate or animal known so far. 
The data is very sketchy, though and a LOT of 
sequencing still needs to be done to recover 
the complete mtDNA sequence. But the few 
fragments I was able to sequence from this 
sample 3A indicate that if these mutations will 
hold, we are dealing with a new human-like 
creature, very distant from Homo sapiens, 
Neanderthals and Denisovans."

Folks, we're dealing with nothing less than a 
newly-discovered species of hominid - this is 
breaking news,which we'll sure to be hearing 
more about in the coming months and years!

jdtolle » February 18th, 2014, Face forward

Yes, it’s interesting and somewhat instructive to know how things got the way they are. What’s far more important, though, is what you choose to do going forward.

Pay attention to what has happened but don’t waste your precious and powerful energy becoming obsessed by it. Put that energy into moving in a positive direction.

It’s what you can do now that really matters. As big as they might have been, the expired opportunities of yesterday are now negligible compared to the possibilities of today.

What you can do now is connect with your most treasured dreams. What you can do now is act with passion and the highest expectations to bring those dreams to life.

Instead of living with wistfulness, regret, or anger about the past, you can live with positive purpose toward a great and shining future. The direction you face makes all the difference in the world, so make the choice to face forward.

This is a new moment, and with it comes the chance for a new start. Take that chance, grab that opportunity, and live your life forward in a beautiful and fulfilling way.

WILL THE LIBERAL MEDIA ALWAYS PROTECT HILLARY??

WILL THE LIBERAL MEDIA ALWAYS PROTECT HILLARY????????



And the evidence against Hillary is just beginning to mount. Surely, no one, ever Hillary herself, considers her to be a competent candidate for any elected office ?
Not much has changed, has it?
Wanna bet everybody under 30 as well as a majority of women will vote for her in 2016?

Subject: Learn how the liberal media is covering up the Clinton's latest scandal


Media Research Center. America's Media Watchdog

Dear john,

Senator Rand Paul has been on the interview circuit pointing to the stunning hypocrisy of liberals lying about a conservative “war on women” while worshipping at the feet of the serial sexual harasser, Bill Clinton.
And now, unflattering revelations about Bill and Hillary Clinton found in a series of documents from a close confidante have infuriated the liberal media.
Chief among the aggrieved leftist news anchors is NBC’s Andrea Mitchell.

http://paracom.paramountcommunication.com/ct/17785842:19002329622:m:1:418191496:D699147865D1B6E8CFB28D64B039408C:r
In a friendly chat with two co-lefties and Clinton sycophants, Time's Mark Halperin and The Washington Post's Chris Cillizza, Andrea Mitchell actually had the gall to fume that “the statute of limitations on those scandals are long since passed.”
Funny, we don’t recall Andrea Mitchell rushing to Mitt Romney’s defense when Chris Cillizza’s colleagues at The Washington Post ran a front page “news” story about the pranks Mitt Romney is alleged to have pulled in high school!
Quite the opposite; Mitchell and the rest of the liberal media demonized Mitt Romney over something that was alleged, but never proven.
We know what Bill Clinton did. But the truth doesn’t matter to the leftist media.

They’re rabid partisans. And now their central goal is to shield Hillary Clinton and her husband from all bad publicity.
Our job as media watchdogs is to ensure that the media do not get away with suppressing the Clinton family’s disgraceful past.
Forward this email to all your friends and family so that they can see for themselves how desperate the so-called “news” media are to protect Hillary Clinton as she prepares to run for president.
Thank you as always for helping us neutralize the dishonest left-wing press.
Sincerely,
The MRC Action Team

The now famous Quote of Cabal Criminal Hillary Clinton.

YOU decide..... !





 
Written by a cousin of Ambassador Stevens, a US Navy Chaplain, Senior Pastor Ret'd

THIS IS A TRUE STORY...and a dirty one! Be sure to read at least to the Bold highlighted area - and then pass it on.
You need to read this true account of what happened to our Ambassador Stevens and the other 3 who died. If this doesn't make you mad.........Cynthia Lee Myers wanted to share the truth of what happened over in Libya , you will not find this in the media yet, but it aired on FNC.....please read....

"Here is my story. A week out the Embassy in Tripoli began receiving multiple tips about an Al Queda cell in the area planning an attack on 9/11 in response to the killing of Bin Laden. For the next several days, the state dept and WH were asked for a security force and were denied at least six times. Ambassador Stevens and his team were given the all clear that the Consulate in Benghazi was safe and there was no need for a security force other than his 3 personal guards(One being my cousin) and a few Libyans who were not armed. Then the attack and murders occurred.

Immediately the WH claimed it was a protest gone bad over a you tube video. Obama made a quick speech in the Rose Garden on Sept.12 before catching a plane to Vegas to campaign. He made a generic statement at the end of his speech after placing the blame on an overheated protest over the video. He said "No act of terror will shake the resolve of America. Later that day and over the next 2 days, the liberal media began saying Ambassador Stevens and the other 3 men died of smoke inhalation. This was not the case.

Out of respect for my cousin, I'm not going to be specific about his murder. However Ambassador Stevens was brutally murdered. His genitals were cut off, he was sodomized and beaten and cut and stabbed and burned. He was drug thru the streets and left for dead. This is eyewitness testimony of a local Dr. who found the Ambassador in a ditch and tried to save his life. He had no idea who he was. The other 3 men, including my cousin, met similar fates. And deaths due to smoke inhalation is a 100% fabricated LIE. The next week I drove my aunt and Uncle and 2 others to DC to receive his body. We met with Hillary, Panetta, and Susan Rice. ALL of whom apologized and said it was a protest gone bad over a video and exited the area. Next, Obama entered with the same story and didn't apologize and wasn't sympathetic. My aunt cried to this man and all he did was hand her flowers and walk away. I tried to get his attention, but didn't. I got upset and yelled liar to him, he kept walking. Then a secret service agent grabbed my arm and led me to a room where I was held till the proceedings were over.

America, I saw firsthand how cold this man is. What kind of liar he is. Most of you haven't a clue about this tyrant and yet you support him. And act like every word he says is Gospel. These murders and the fast and furious cover ups make Watergate look like a kid who told his bff's secret to the class.

THIS PART YOU DON'T KNOW, BUT SHOULD. AMERICAN VALOR, BENGHAZI , LIBYA :

The stunning part of this story is that Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty killed 60 of the attacking force. Once the compound was overrun, the attackers were incensed to discover that just two men had inflicted so much death and destruction.

The news has been full of the attacks on our embassies throughout the Muslim world, and in particular, the deaths of Ambassador Chris Stevens and three others in Benghazi , Libya .. However, there's a little known story of incredible bravery, heroics, and courage that should be the top story.

So what actually happened at the U.S. embassy in Libya? We are learning more about this every day. Ambassador Stevens and Foreign Service officer Sean Smith, along with administrative staff, were working out of temporary quarters due to the fact that in the spring of 2011 during the so-called Arab Spring, the United States cut ties with then president Moammar Gadhafi. Our embassy was looted and ransacked, causing it to be unusable. It is still in a state of disrepair. Security for embassies and their personnel is to be provided by the host nation. Since Libya has gone through a civil war of sorts in the past 18 months, the current government is very unstable, and therefore, unreliable.

A well-organized attack by radical Muslims was planned specifically targeting the temporary U.S. embassy building. The Libyan security force that was in place to protect our people deserted their post, or joined the attacking force. Either way, our people were in a real fix.

And it should be noted that Ambassador Stevens had mentioned on more than one occasion to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, that he was quite concerned for his personal safety and the welfare of his people.

It is thought that Ambassador Stevens was on a "hit list". A short distance from the American compound, two Americans were sleeping. They were in Libya as independent contractors working an assignment totally unrelated to our embassy. They also happened to be former Navy Seals.

When they heard the noise coming from the attack on our embassy, as you would expect from highly trained warriors, they ran to the fight. Apparently, they had no weapons, but seeing the Libyan guards dropping their guns in their haste in fleeing the scene, Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty snatched up several of these discarded weapons and prepared to defend the American compound.

Not knowing exactly what was taking place, the two Seals set up a defensive perimeter. Unfortunately Ambassador Stevens was already gravely injured, and Foreign Service officer, Sean Smith, was dead. However, due to their quick action and suppressive fire, twenty administrative personnel in the embassy were able to escape to safety. ( But all have been silenced and kept away from congress and all investigations on Benghazi !! ) Eventually, these two courageous men were overwhelmed by the sheer numbers brought against them, an enemy force numbering between 100 to 200 attackers which came in two waves. But the stunning part of the story is that Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty killed 60 of the attacking force. Once the compound was overrun, the attackers were incensed to discover that just two men had inflicted so much death and destruction.

As it became apparent to these selfless heroes, they were definitely going to lose their lives unless some reinforcements showed up in a hurry. As we know now, that was not to be. I'm fairly certain they knew they were going to die in this gun fight, but not before they took a whole lot of bad guys with them!

Consider these tenets of the Navy SEAL Code:
1) Loyalty to Country, Team and Teammate,
2) Serve with Honor and Integrity On and Off the Battlefield,
3) Ready to Lead, Ready to Follow, Never Quit,
4) Take responsibility for your actions and the actions of your teammates,
5) Excel as Warriors through Discipline and Innovation,
6) Train for War, Fight to Win, Defeat our Nation's Enemies, and...
7) Earn your Trident every day.

Thank you, Tyrone and Glen. To the very last breath, you both lived up to the SEAL Code. You served all of us well. You were courageous in the face of certain death. And Tyrone, even though you never got to hold your newborn son, he will grow up knowing the character and quality of his father, a man among men who sacrificed himself defending others.

Dr. Charles R. Roots Senior Pastor
Former Staff Sergeant, USMC Captain,
U. S. Navy Chaplain Corps (Ret.)
This should be passed on and on and on.

NO TRUE AMERICAN WOULD OBJECT TO RECEIVING THIS MORE THAN ONCE ... SO
PASS IT ON And Let us never forget Hillary Clinton's Comment "What Difference Does It Make?"
And she wants to be our next president! she should be sitting in prison right now!





How dare her to run for President of our United States!

TWO SHORT SENTENCES

These two short sentences tell you a lot about our government and our culture:


1.    We are advised to not judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics,
       but we are encouraged to judge ALL Gun Owners by the actions of a few
       lunatics.  Funny how that works.
And here’s another one worth considering.

2.    Seems we constantly hear about how Social Security is going to run out of money.
       How come we never hear about Welfare running out of money?  What's interesting
       is the first group "worked for" their money, but the second didn't.

Profound isn't it...

Pope briefed on Vatican bank as he mulls its future

* Pope holding week of meetings on reforms with top Church officials
* Vatican says no decision taken on future of scandal-plagued bank
By Philip Pullella
VATICAN CITY, Feb 18 (Reuters) - A commission looking into the Vatican bank briefed Pope Francis and top cardinals on its findings on Tuesday ahead of a papal decision about what to do with the institution that has embarrassed the Holy See for decades.
The Vatican commission, which the pope set up in June, gave Francis and his eight-member advisory board of cardinals from around the world a three-hour briefing.
Afterward, Vatican spokesman Father Federico Lombardi said no decisions on the bank's future had been taken.
He said the commission gave the pope and the cardinals an "ample and detailed" report on the current and past situation of the bank, and had offered "several possible indications" on its future.
Lombardi would not give any details. "We are waiting for indications from the pope," Lombardi said.
The pope has not ruled out closing the bank altogether if it cannot be reformed and has said he wants the Vatican to adhere to international standards of financial transparency.
There have been suggestions that a new ministry may be set up in the Vatican to deal with all of its financial matters, which are now handled by the bank and several other departments.
The eight cardinals from Italy, Chile, India, Germany, Democratic Republic of Congo, the United States, Australia and Honduras are advising Francis on how to reform the Curia, the Vatican's often dysfunctional central administration.
The bank, formally known as the Institute for Works of Religion (IOR), has been hit by scandal numerous times over the past decades.
Italian banks stopped dealing with the Vatican bank in 2010 after the Bank of Italy told them they had to enforce strict anti-money laundering criteria.
MONEY LAUNDERING CHARGES
That year, Rome magistrates investigating possible money laundering froze 23 million euros ($31.15 million) held by the IOR in two Italian banks. The IOR said it had merely been transferring its own funds between accounts in other countries.
The money was released but the investigation continues.
IOR president Ernst von Freyberg, a German hired last year, has been spearheading a wide programme of reforms at the bank, which serves Catholic institutions, clerics, employees or former employees of Vatican City, and embassies and diplomats accredited to the Holy See.
The IOR has been closing accounts held by persons or institutions outside those categories.
Last month Moneyval, a monitoring committee of the Council of Europe, gave the Vatican and its financial regulators a mostly positive assessment but urged more controls over the IOR.
The IOR was thrust back into the spotlight last month when Monsignor Nunzio Scarano, a former Vatican prelate on trial for an alleged plot to smuggle 20 million euros into Italy was further charged with laundering millions through the bank.
The IOR's top two managers resigned in July, several days after Scarano was first arrested. Since then, relations between the Vatican and the Italian magistrates, which has often been thorny in the past, has improved dramatically.
Italian investigators have thanked the Vatican for "fully collaborating" on the Scarano case.

Pope Francis has a packed week of meetings about reform with top Church officials who are in Rome for ceremonies this Saturday when the pope will create 19 new cardinals from around the world. (Reporting By Philip Pullella
