WORLD BRACES FOR END OF FED'S 'EASY MONEY'

NEW YORK – With the Obama administration issuing rosy economic reports that WND has reported are based on manipulated statistics designed to show GDP growth at 5 percent and unemployment at under 6 percent, economists worry about the impact of the end of the Federal Reserve’s Quantitative Easing, the buying of U.S. Treasury debt.
“America’s closed economy can handle a surging dollar and a fresh cycle of rising interest rates. Large parts of the world cannot. That in a nutshell is the story of 2015,” warned Ambrose Evans-Pritchard, the well-respected International Business Editor of the Telegraph in London.
“Tightening by the U.S. Federal Reserve will have turbo-charged effects on a global financial system addicted to zero rates and dollar liquidity.”
Supporting his concern, yields on 2-year U.S. Treasuries have surged from 0.31pc to 0.74pc since October, and this is the driver of currency markets.
Under the leadership of Federal Reserve chair Janet Yellen, the Fed has engaged in a “pivot,” shifting concern from stimulating job growth to worrying about inflation, with the concern that without a tightening in Federal Reserve monetary policy, the U.S. economy could experience inflation as high as 5 percent in the next two years, a level not experienced in the U.S. economy since 2005.
Under the QE bond-buying spree, the Federal Reserve balance sheet ballooned to a record $4.48 trillion accumulated since announcing the first round of QE purchases in November 2008 just as outgoing President George W. Bush tried to deal with a systemic financial markets collapse.
The moves then helped propel Barack Obama into the White House as the housing market bubble fueled by speculative mortgages issued below investment grade collapsed.
Yellen assumed the Fed chair on Jan. 6, 2014, determined to “taper” QE borrowing down to zero by the end of 2014, a goal Yellen achieved last October.
WND has repeatedly warned that a massive downward stock market collapse in the United States could trigger an international stock market downward adjustment if interest rates begin to rise in the wake of discontinuing the Fed policy of QE Treasury debt-buying.
With the Dow Jones Industrial Average topping 18,000 for the first time ever at the end of 2014, savvy investors are asking whether the U.S. economy is headed toward a bad case of déjà vu.
After 9/11, Greenspan and the Federal Reserve began cutting interest rates aggressively in an effort to jump-start a badly shocked U.S. economy back into robust activity.
“For a full year and a half after September 11, 2001, we were in limbo,” Greenspan wrote in his 2007 book “The Age of Turbulence: Adventures in a New World.”
“The economy managed to expand, but its growth was uncertain and weak. Businesses and investors felt besieged,” Greenspan wrote.
Greenspan was open about monetary policy during this time.
“The Fed’s response to all this uncertainty was to maintain our program of aggressively lowering short-term interest rates,” he wrote.
Under Greenspan’s direction the FOMC extended a series of seven cuts made in early 2001 to lower the fed funds rates down to around 1.25 percent by the end of 2002, a figure Greenspan admits “most of us would have considered unfathomably low a decade before.”
Greenspan admitted that the Fed was aware maintaining these low interest rates “might foster a bubble, an inflationary boom of some sort, which we would subsequently have to address,” but he claimed the Fed was worried the economic slowdown after 9/11 might cause deflation, a worry of professional economists around the world after experiencing the deflation that plagued the Great Depression of the 1930s.
As 2007 came to a close, Greenspan was a hero on Wall Street.
Investors who had made billions of dollars hailed Greenspan’s low interest policy as the key to engineering an unprecedented surge of wealth on Wall Street.
At the close of 2007, those warning that the economy had peaked and the real estate bubble had already burst were being received as prophets of doom whose ill tidings risked spoiling the party.
As 2008 began, pundits were predicting the DJIA would climb past 15,000 without much difficulty.
Unfortunately, such optimism was unfounded, as Greenspan and the Fed managed the federal funds rate up from a low of 1 percent in May 2004 to a plateau of 5 percent maintained for a year, from the last quarter of 2006 until approximately the last quarter of 2007, when Greenspan and the Fed began lowering rates in fear the upward adjustment violated the Goldilocks rule in being “too much” instead of “just right.”
In December 2007, few realized that month would later be identified as the official start of the most severe economic downturn in U.S. history since the Great Depression of the 1930s.

Maylasia Loss of 3 Jets MH17 MH370 QZ8501
MOTIVE A: Maylasia Move to Gold-Backed Currency
Malaysian Province Moves To Gold And Silver-Based Currency In “Main Islamic Event Of The Last 100 Years”
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 08/17/2010
More world governments are “just saying no” to the ponzi. Last week, the Malaysian government of Kelantan “said it was introducing a new monetary system featuring standardised gold and silver coins based on the traditional dinar and dirham coins once used by the Ottoman Empire.” And as everyone who has taken game theory 101 knows, the first defector wins the most, while the last one is left with nothing. A small province in Malaysia just made the critical first defection. The question now is who will be next… and next…and next. (Zerohedge)
MOTIVE B: Insurance Scam
The $2.25 billion dollar reason for the mysterious plane disappearances: Insurance Scam 101
By Unidentified Target: I’ve been in the insurance industry for a number of years, and I’m becoming very suspicious that the recent events with Malaysian Air might be the result of a giant insurance and financial scam. The recent AirAsia mystery raises additional red flags and links collaborating parties that reach the highest branches of government. I believe there was the means (companies and some real shady people) and motive (money and political elections) to do so. THIS Let’s look at some of the facts outlined by recent financial articles: Reddit.com
“According to industry representatives and Bloomberg, Malaysia Airlines had a “higher than normal” broad liability insurance policy, through Allianz of Germany, which is the world’s third largest insurer. The limits went up to $2.25 billion for each crash! Willis Group Holdings was the broker for the policy. Willis Group Holdings has been convicted of numerous criminal acts in the past, including the involvement with the 7 billion dollar ponzi scheme through Stanford Financial Group’s. However, did you also know that Allianz was one of the insurers for the World Trade Towers, with Willis Group Holdings as the broker, that paid out Larry Silverstein $4.55 billion on the WTC.”

Human Shields – a Bush Crime Family Trademark
George Bush in Florida pet goat on 911Is it a coincidence that AirAsia QZ8501 crashed on 12/28 while George H. W. Bush had been admitted to Houston Methodist hospital on 12/22 and discharged on 12/30.? (Source)
Was it a coincidence that his son, George W. Bush was safely seated in a Florida elementary school during the 9/11 False Flag?
MOTIVE C: Bush Convicted of War Crimes
Kuala Lumpur War Crimes Commission (Wiki)
The Kuala Lumpur War Crimes Commission (KLWCT), also known as the Kuala Lumpur War Crimes Tribunal, is a Malaysian organisation established in 2007 by Mahathir Mohamad to investigate war crimes. The KLWCC was instigated as an alternative to the International Criminal Court in The Hague, which Mahathir accused of bias in its selection of cases to cover.
The governance body of the KLWCT was established to oversee and investigate complaints from victims of wars and armed conflict in relation to crimes against peace, war crimes, crimes against humanity and other like offences as recognized under International Law. Members of the governance body include:
Mahathir Mohamad (Chairman)
Alfred Webre
Richard Falk[5]
Zacharia Yatim – retired Malaysian Federal Court judge
Tunku Sofiah Jewa – lawyer and author of numerous publications on International Law
Salleh Buang – former Federal Counsel in the Attorney-General Chambers
Niloufer Bhagwat
Shad Saleem Faruqi – prominent academic and professor of law.[6]
Convictions invoking universal jurisdiction
In November 2011 the tribunal purportedly exercised universal jurisdiction to try in absentia former US President George W. Bush and former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, convicting both for crimes against peace because of what the tribunal concluded was the unlawful invasion of Iraq.

JIM WILLIE................ITS GAME OVER THE DOLLAR IS DYING!!!

JIM WILLIE................ITS GAME OVER THE DOLLAR IS DYING!!!

Posted by EXOGEN on January 4, 2015 at 6:17am
Jim Willie: It's GAME OVER…The Dollar Is DYING!
C Serpa
I disagree that the US is driving down the oil price. I also disagree that the Russian economy is in tatters. 
You can't believe Reuters or Bloomberg. The ruble goes down, and the oil price goes down. This is the news: There is no change in the oil price in ruble terms.
My contact in Russia, who has a son in Moscow, asked him how the import prices are affected. They have sudden moves up to 10%, but they go down in a couple of weeks.  That means the Russians are cleverly managing their reserves with 160 down to $130 Billion in Treasury Bonds to manage the foreign imports that they pay for with dollars. 
The Russians have no change in their oil revenues in ruble terms, while they use dollars to assure their imports, and manage the import prices so that they are just little speed bumps. 
Russia is NOT in tatters. Putin is sitting right next to a KILL SWITCH.
The kill switch would be to require, if he chose, all Russian exports of energy and metals to be paid in either rubles or yuan. Or he could do something that he's already indicated: All major FOREX currencies that are being used to pay for Russian exports are immediately converted to gold. 
The Russian economy is neither in tatters nor is it on the verge of falling. Instead, they are converting all kinds of foreign revenue into gold.
And what does the US Press say? That they're spending their hard-earned gold to manage the ruble crisis, when it's the EXACT OPPOSITE, according to this article. 
Russia in not weak. They've got over 25,000 tons of gold and NO EXTERNAL DEBT. 
What does the US have? No gold, not much industry and $18 Trillion worth of government debt. Which country is weak? Which economy is in tatters, the Russian, or the US?
Don't believe for a minute "official gold data". Russian and China each have OVER 20,000 TONS of gold! 
Don't believe that the US have 8,500 tons- they have ZERO tons!
They are robbing the GLD fund, which is what MORONS invest in, thinking they own gold. And JP Morgan and Goldman Sachs are robbing it blind to give gold to meet the COMEX obligations. They are running out of gold and the game is coming to an end in 2015. 
I have not said the system is going to break in Mid-February. I have said that the Chinese New Year is in mid-February. I said to look for a lot of aggravated pressures and more evidence of the system breaking by February going into March. 
It could come with a big rise with the gold price or it could be a European phenomenon where they announce they no longer want to engage in exclusive dollar trade, which will not just be gold-backed, it will be silver-backed. The rise in the silver price will be DOUBLE or MORE the rise in the gold price. 
Acceleration of Death of the Dollar
The faster the world can get away from the dollar, the more likely it is that we get some sort of global improvement. If we stick with the dollar we're going to get global recession and depression, followed by the NWO global, fascist state. 
Interviewer: And World War III.
Willie: No, we're not going to get WWIII. 
Interviewer: I say that not as an alarmist, but as a transition from one currency regime to another, which is usually accompanied by some big conflagration. 
Willie: I just don't buy the argument.  In 10 months of the Ukraine war, we haven't had any escalation. There's only one thing I'm worried about, and that's a nuclear accident like Chernobyl. There is a worry about that in Ukraine. 
I give Putin credit. He is our hope to get rid of the dollar, along with the President of China, without a conflagration of World War. I don't think we are going to get any nuclear exchanges. 
Putin has done another clever thing. He said he's not going to supply gas to any country that has hidden CIA torture center prisons. He's courted Turkey, converting the Southstream Gas Pipeline to the Turkstream. Turkey is on the verge of abandoning NATO. 
Sub Prime Shale Bond Failure
The falling oil price is doing far more damage to the US economy than it is to Russia. We are eliminating the entire shale industry. It's going to be totally dark in a month or two. That is the marginal employer and producer in the economy. 
When the shale industry dies completely down in a month or two, you will have a sub-prime sale bond failure. It's going to catch fire across the US bond industry. It's all going to force Russia, China and 140 plus BRICS alliance nations… 
You have all these reports about the dollar being strong and crude oil falling in price. Crude oil is not falling in price. The dollar is dying.
In nominal terms, the crude oil price is going down, yes.  Don't focus on the numbers in the price, but the dynamics that are pushing it down. You've got lower demand  and a universal broken petrodollar system.  The stock market is going up – it's crazy! It's not reflecting value or profitability. All these things are going up in value because they are being fed on the paper mache side- the paper funnels coming from the Fed and all the other central banks, except the Bundesbank. 
This confluence of rivers is going to force the Russian and Chinese hands to "hurry up" and come up with their alternative and I think they're first move is going to be a follow-on for all the different Chinese swap facilities. The first RMB facility was with Brazil in 2006, now they've got RMB facilities with London, Germany and Australia in their bilateral trade.
They are not dealing with dollars AT ALL. You have about 23 different nations, some of them minor, but many MAJOR, that have RMB (renminbi) swap facilities. 
We are now in the preliminary stage of avoiding the dollar now. They are going to work toward Letters of Credit that are gold trade notes. The US has blocked all attempts to return to the gold standard. The other countries are going to come up with a 'trade solution' to the gold standard. Then all these nations that participate with the new system are going to realize that they don't need their Treasury bonds anymore as they are only causing problems. 
This is the Russian–Chinese plan. They are going to get a back door to re-install gold as the standard in trade. When that happens the dollar will totally be discarded and no one will want it. 
Then the US will not be able to import items and pay with Treasuries.
The US has set itself up for failure by getting rid of its industry by outsourcing. Now, the other nations that have the industry that are supplying the US economy are participating in the BRICS alliance and they are lined up with this gold trade note system. 
Russia and China have set up a new SWIFT banking system, a new gold trade system with letters of credit and they've got their own debt-rating services that are going to declare the US government TOXIC junk bonds.   They've also got their own credit cards. They don't need VISA and Mastercard – they have Union Pay. There are more customers using Union Pay than Mastercard in the world. 
The US is going to qualify as a third world nation and we are going to see Russia as the leader in Europe. I can't say enough about the positive strategy of Russia. They are working toward gold standard platforms. 
Interviewer: "We've had some significant things happen in 2014. I was saying that they can't stop QE, and it appears from the overt standpoint, that they haveInterest rates have stayed down. Is that the trend we're going to see going into next year?
QE Did not End, It Just Changed Offices
Willie: I think so, and what we have is these twin towers, the dollar and the Treasury Bonds - they're toxic. People think the dollar is strong now. But that's wrong. The dollar is toxic because we're printing somewhere like a minimum of $30 Billion a month to maybe as much as $300 Billion a month. We're covering the US government debt, which is TOXIC. This is what third world nations do. 
We've got these twin towers of toxic money and bonds. And they're leaking, so the whole world is damaged. 
They TALKED about ending QE, and then the next thing you know, the Bank of Japan announced unlimited QE. That's your indication that QE did NOT END. It just changed offices. We've stolen the 1.2 Trillion dollar Japanese pension fund.
East Asian Currency War
The Japanese are doing something clever, which I didn't expect. They're dropping their prices, so they don't have such a big impact on their neighbor competitors. They are reducing their revenue stream. But they can't avoid the currency war because the Japanese Yen is not done going down. 
Economic Growth-We're in a Full-Blown Multi-Year Recession
I don't believe for a minute this Q3 growth story, they make me laugh! So you've got all these retail chains, companies like Cisco announcing lay-offs, Sears and WalMart in trouble, all these companies are going down, yet the economy is rising. What I think is there's an acceleration downward in the GDP for about 4 consecutive years. I am talking about a 20% reduction in the US economy. That's what a depression does. We fixed nothing. 
It's a full-blown multi-year recession.  
Clash in Statistics
We've got a 4-fold rise in the money supply and a 4-times more balance sheet at the Fed. They are the holder of last resort for these toxic Treasury Bonds, so they're wrecked! That's why they sold the controlling interest to China. 
Here's the clash: The money supply is UP 4-fold, but the money velocity is DOWN 50% since 2007. You NEVER see that in growth times. NEVER. In fact, it if drops 10 or 20%, it's called "on the edge of a depression." So what if it's down 50%? It's a full-blown multi-year recession.
Here's the consequence to the currency world: If you've got this 4-fold increase in the money supply in the Central Banks holdings of the toxic US government debt, the propaganda comes out that there's not enough gold to cover all this money. We can't go on a gold standard. Which I say is a bunch of BS.
Because you increase the gold price 4 or 5-fold to 5 or $6,000 oz. to compensate for the 4-fold increase 
in the dollar money supply.  That's the kind of thinking Wall Street doesn't want to hear. 
pThey will never stop the zero percent interest rate because it feeds the system for the long term Treasury Bond demand. This is GAME OVER!p
Interviewer: Do you see the death of the dollar in 2015?
Willie: I see several rivers converging and they're all for wreckage. The dollar rising is a systemic breakdown. You have entire nations that are hunkering down into the dollar, because their own currencies are in trouble, as they cannot print money. The nation that prints the money is seeing the benefit - only in their currency.The dollar is rising, because the whole system is breaking.
This is when the US is going to be in a tremendous quandary: When they must come up with gold to back a gold-based currency, or they fall into the third world. I think they are going to come up with an artificially gold-backed currency and they are going to be forced into an internationally approved audit.
And they are going to fail the audit. 
There's deep storage gold that shows up on government ledgers all the time in their accounting. It's loaded with Evergreen contracts from Barrick, ownership rights on Nevada and Colorado and Alaskan properties  -  it's unmined gold, and that does not qualify to back a gold-backed currency. 
I've been asking my sources, will the Eastern ancient families that have been around for thousands of years, China is awakening - and these families are taking control. I asked them, will these families supply 10,000 tons of gold to the US so they could have a legitimate currency? 
Because they don't want the US economy to go to hell in a handbasket. They want it to be part of the global economy. They want exports to the US. It's a big part of their economic equation. And the answer is no, under the current system and regime and the people operating the US. 
So I asked another question:
Will the robbers, who pilfered Fort Knox, namely Clinton, Bush and Rubin – will they be forced to reproduce and repatriate the US gold? And I have not gotten an answer. I think they used it for other purposes that I don't want to get into, like a lot of weird things like underground cities. 
I believe most of the US gold went into the gold market and financed a lot of secret projects for Langely. Langely is a city in Virginia with the headquarters of the Central Intelligence agency is located. They have stolen US gold, which is only $500 billion worth of gold. They also have narcotics money that helps fund their projects: They get more than $500 billion every single year from Afghanistan heroine. 
This is the year that the whole globe comes to the realization that they must move quickly away from the dollar. 
People need to get out of the dollar system before they lose their money: your CDs are not safe, your stock account, or money with corporate bonds.
European Central Bank QE 
Interviewer: There's a lot of talk that the ECB is going to institute QE at their next meeting, and that the Swiss are going to institute negative interest rate policy on the very day. Is that something you have thought of? 
Willie: The Swiss are in a unique bind. Since 2011, they have been maintaining a 120 peg.  The money was seeking the Swiss hills and it jettisoned it upward. So the Swiss National Bank has been printing money and that is about to break. They may announce they are going to print a bunch of money, as it's overloaded with Euros.  
The Swiss are printing money and never stopped. I think they are the big focal point right now, depending on if Prince Draghi remains at the post. The conflict is between the Bundesbank and the Euro ECB. The Germans have told Draghi they are going to leave the Euro if they print money. 
Germans on the Verge of Leaving the Euro
Germany doesn't like the NSA spying, the Russian sanctions, the absence of return of their repatriated gold, or the European Central Bank printing money.
If they print money, it will weaken the Euro and bring about capital destruction. You lose your profit margin, and the Germans don't want to see that. They do not want Draghi to print money.
Germany is at war between the Bundesbank and the European Central Bank. If they go ahead with QE, then the Germans are going to abandon the Euro. 
PROPOGANDA PRESS IN THE US
80% of the mainstream press in the US about the global financial system are lies, yet  80% of the news on the internet is true. I am using it far more lately, like the Russian  RT News, the BRICS Post, Xinhua out of China, India Economic Times, even Al Jazeera is more competent than Reuters and Bloomberg, which puts out trash!
BUSINESS MODEL INSTALLED AFTER 9/11 in the US
This is what fascists do: They wreck economies, do bond fraud, steal central bank gold and wage war. World War II didn't defeat the fascists. The US invited them, called "Operation Paper Clip". They took over the banks, Goldman Sachs and the Treasury Department of the US government.

They conducted 9/11, they stole $100 Billion in gold bullion from the World Trade Center, $100 Billion in diamonds. Wake up, people, it was a bank robbery! The largest bank center in the world was the World Trade Center. It's not a tourist center!

PALM BEACH DRAMA: Billionaire paedophile with links to Bill Clinton...

Jeffrey Epstein profile: the billionaire paedophile with links to Bill Clinton, Kevin Spacey, Robert Maxwell – and Prince Andrew

Many A-list celebrities broke off links with the businessman after he was conviction of having sex with an underage girl

A list of people who have associated with Jeffrey Epstein over the years would take in the world of celebrity, science, politics - and royalty.
Over the years, the casually-dressed, globe-trotting financier, who was said to log more than 600 flying hours a year, has been linked with Bill Clinton, Kevin Spacey, Chris Tucker and Manhattan-London society figure Ghislaine Maxwell, daughter of the late media titan Robert Maxwell.
Epstein reportedly flew Tucker and Spacey to Africa on his private jet as part of a charitable endeavour. Clinton, meanwhile, flew on multiple occasions in the same plane to Epstein’s private Caribbean island, Little St James, between 2002 and 2005 as he developed his philanthropic post-presidential career. It would later be alleged in court that Epstein organised orgies on that same private island in the US Virgin Islands.
Prince Andrew was named in the 'sex slave case' related to banker Jeffrey Epstein Prince Andrew was named in the 'sex slave case' related to banker Jeffrey Epstein Reports in the US media say many of the A-list names broke off any links with the former maths teacher after his arrest and conviction in 2008 of having sex with an underage girl whom he had solicited. His arrest followed an 11-month undercover investigation at a mansion in Florida’s Palm Beach that Epstein owned.
In 2008, he pleaded guilty to a single charge of soliciting prostitution and was handed a 18-month jail sentence. He served 13 months in jail and was obliged to register as a sex offender. A 2011 report in the New York Post said that he celebrated his release from jail and his return to a property he maintains in New York – a 45,000-sq-foot eight-storey mansion on East 71st Street – with Prince Andrew.
Bill Clinton flew on multiple occasions to Epstein’s private Caribbean island between 2002 and 2005 as he developed his philanthropic post-presidential career Bill Clinton flew on multiple occasions to Epstein’s private Caribbean island between 2002 and 2005 as he developed his philanthropic post-presidential career “I’m not a sexual predator, I’m an ‘offender’,” he told the newspaper at the time. “It’s the difference between a murderer and a person who steals a bagel.”
Epstein, 61, was born in Brooklyn, New York, where his father worked for the city’s parks department. He attended Brooklyn’s Lafayette High School and excelled at mathematics. This helped him secure job in his early 20s as a maths teacher at the exclusive Dalton School, a private college located on New York’s Upper East Side.

Key facts of Jeffrey Epstein 'sex slave' lawsuit
Among his pupils was the son of Bear Stearns chairman Ace Greenber. In 1976, after a few years teaching the children of the wealthy, he accepted a job offer from Mr Greenber that allowed him to oversee their money and left to become an options trader at Bear Stearns.
Epstein reportedly flew actor Kevin Spacey to Africa on his private jet as part of a charitable endeavour Epstein reportedly flew actor Kevin Spacey to Africa on his private jet as part of a charitable endeavour Four years later he was made a partner, but by 1982 he had left to set up his own boutique investment company, J Epstein and Co. He reportedly only accepted clients prepared to invest a minimum of $1bn, though many profiles of Epstein admit a lack of hard, verifiable facts about his business have added to the air of mystery. It is said, for instance, that Epstein forgoes alcohol and instead prefers Earl Grey tea and does yoga every day.
Among Epstein’s early investment clients were Leslie Wexner, the Ohio-based businessman who is CEO of L Brands, the fashion and lifestyle group whose brands include Victoria’s Secret and Bath & Body Works. In 2013, Forbes magazine estimated the 77-year-old Mr Wexler’s wealth to be $7.3bn.
Epstein reportedly flew actor Chris Tucker to Africa on his private jet as part of a charitable endeavour Epstein reportedly flew actor Chris Tucker to Africa on his private jet as part of a charitable endeavour Epstein has always been interested in science, funding scientific projects and investments around the world. In 2000 he established the Jeffrey Epstein VI Foundation, which funds science research and education globally. He has reportedly donated $30m to Harvard University, money the Ivy League institution retained despite his conviction and registration as a sex offender.
Jeffrey Epstein has been also linked to the Manhattan-London society figure Ghislaine Maxwell, daughter of the late media titan Robert Maxwell Jeffrey Epstein has been also linked to the Manhattan-London society figure Ghislaine Maxwell, daughter of the late media titan Robert Maxwell Reports say the silver-coiffed Epstein has invested millions to research subjects such as evolution, cancer and HIV. His projects have linked him to many leading figures in the world of science and research including Gerald Edelman, Murray Gell-Mann and Stephen Hawking.

RISE OF THE MACHINES: ROBOTS LEARN WATCHING YOUTUBE!

Robots can now learn to cook just like you do: by watching YouTube videos

Researchers have come up with a new way to teach robots how to use tools simply by watching videos on YouTube.
The researchers, from the University of Maryland and the Australian research center NICTA, have just published a paper on their achievements, which they will present this month at the 29th annual conference of the Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence.
The demonstration is the latest impressive use of a type of artificial intelligence called deep learning. A hot area for acquisitions as of late, deep learning entails training systems called artificial neural networks on lots of information derived from audio, images, and other inputs, and then presenting the systems with new information and receiving inferences about it in response.
The researchers employed convolutional neural networks, which are now in use at Facebook, among other companies, to identify the way a hand is grasping an item, and to recognize specific objects. The system also predicts the action involving the object and the hand.
To train their model, researchers selected data from 88 YouTube videos of people cooking. From there, the researchers generated commands that a robot could then execute.
“We believe this preliminary integrated system raises hope towards a fully intelligent robot for manipulation tasks that can automatically enrich its own knowledge resource by “watching” recordings from the World Wide Web,” the researchers concluded.

ROYALS ROCKED: IMMUNITY FOR PRINCE ANDREW IN SEX CASE

Prince Andrew may have been secretly filmed with underage girl he is alleged to have abused 

 

Papers filed against his pervert pal Jeffrey Epstein say he recorded VIP orgies he threw at his luxury homes using cameras hidden in the walls


 Prince Andrew MAIN
Prince Andrew’s tycoon pal may have taken compromising photos of him with the underage girl he is alleged to have abused.
Details buried in original court papers filed against pervert Jeffrey Epstein, 61, reveal that he recorded the sordid orgies he threw for VIPs at his luxury homes using cameras hidden in the walls of guest bedrooms.
The woman known as Jane Doe 3 – said to be 30-year-old Virginia Roberts – claims she was held as a sex slave and forced to sleep with the Duke of York in London, New York and the US Virgin Islands.
She says she was 17 at the time – under the age of consent in Florida.
One of the sexual encounters with the Prince, 54, is alleged to have taken place at an orgy ­involving other underage girls on Epstein’s private island.
The financier, who was jailed for 18 months in 2008 after pleading guilty to solicitation for prostitution, kept a sickening stash of images on a computer seized at his Palm Beach mansion in 2006.

Prince Andrew was a frequent guest at the house.
Lawyers representing Roberts, originally referred to as Jane Doe 102, mentioned the hidden cameras in a 27-page filing at the Palm Beach Federal Courthouse in Florida.
The six-year-old papers, seen by the Sunday People, state: “Some of the photographs in the defendant’s possession were taken with hidden cameras set up in [Epstein’s] home in Palm Beach.
“On the Day of his arrest, police found two hidden cameras and photographs of ­underage girls on a computer in the defendant’s home.
“[He] may have taken lewd ­photographs of Jane Doe 102 with his hidden cameras and transported [them] to his other residences and elsewhere.”
There is no suggestion that Prince Andrew knew Roberts was being held as a sex slave by the tycoon and she claims she first met the royal when the financier took her to Europe and North Africa in 2001.
During a stop in London they called on his former girlfriend Ghislaine Maxwell, daughter of crooked media mogul Robert Maxwell.

Roberts claims in the latest court documents, filed on December 30, that she first slept with the prince at Maxwell’s home.
Court papers also allege that Maxwell presented nude pictures of her she had taken herself to Epstein as a birthday present.
They add that Roberts’ claims that she was forced to tell Epstein all about her sexual encounters so he could use the information to “blackmail” the royal.
She further claims she was sex-trafficked to “many other powerful men, including numerous prominent American politicians, powerful business executives, foreign presidents, a well known Prime Minister, and other world leaders”.
Prosecutors believe Epstein, who enjoyed watching other people have sex, had cameras fitted at his other residences across the world.
Prince Andrew – who was photographed with Roberts during a party in New York – was holed up in a luxury ski chalet in Switzerland on Saturday.

Buckingham Palace repeated his strongly-worded denial of the allegations.
Prince Andrew holidayed with Epstein in Thailand in 2001 and was snapped surrounded by topless women on a yacht.
A handyman who spent 11 years working for the tycoon claimed Prince Andrew often had massages when he was a guest at his Palm Beach mansion.
Juan Alessi said the Prince enjoyed daily massages from young women and often emerged “smiling” after rub-downs.
He said the massages were carried out in a private part of the mansion only Epstein and selected guests could access.
Alessi also told how he witnessed parties at the ­waterfront mansion at which the Prince was present while young girls frolicked in the nude.
Despite his friend’s 2008 conviction for child sex offences, Prince Andrew continued to see him and the pair were pictured together in Central Park, New York.
The ensuing furore led to him quitting his role as Britain’s trade envoy.

Epstein served 13 months before he was released.
Jane Doe’s claims against the Prince come after she joined three women in a lawsuit against prosecutors, claiming they broke the law by failing to consult them before signing a plea deal for the tycoon.
It is understood that without the agreement he would have faced up to 15 years in jail.
The ongoing lawsuit was filed by Brad Edwards and Paul Cassell and names the US Government as the defendant.
The lawyers say Epstein’s treatment was “contrary to the Government’s normal approach in prosecuting federal sex offences”.
The US State Attorney’s office in Florida still has the vile haul of images from Epstein’s Palm Beach home, which were captured on devices hidden in walls inside guest bedrooms.
A spokesman said: “These matters are subject to ongoing litigation. We have no comment.”

Ghislaine Maxwell branded claims against her as “untrue”.
Her spokesman said: “The allegations... against Ghislaine Maxwell are untrue. The original allegations are not new and have been fully responded to and shown to be untrue.
“Each time the story is retold it changes with new salacious details about public figures and world leaders.
“[The woman’s] claims are obvious lies and should be treated as such. Ghislaine Maxwell’s original response to the lies remains the same. [She] strongly denies allegations of an unsavoury nature... and reserves her right to seek redress.”
Buckingham Palace has denied “any suggestion of impropriety with underage minors” by Prince Andrew.

Prince holes up in luxury ski resort

Prince Andrew was holed up in a luxury Swiss ski chalet tonight as the sex abuse claim hit the headlines worldwide.
He did not leave the holiday home in the posh village of ­Verbier, where he is on a family holiday with ex-wife Fergie and their daughters Beatrice and Eugenie.
On every other day of the New Year break he left either to ski on Verbier’s famous slopes or dine at the resort’s restaurants.
Some reports suggested Andrew may be preparing to fly back to the UK today.
Eugenie, 24, and her friend Cressida Bonas, 25, were seen at the chalet on Saturday afternoon.
Eugenie’s sister Beatrice, 26, was in Verbier earlier last week but by yesterday had left for a break in the Caribbean.
Singer Pixie Lott, 23, is also in the resort and celebrated New Year at the exclusive Farinet hotel.

Published on Jan 2, 2015
The Ambassador called Ron this afternoon all excited. A fiery Phoenix cloud formation that appeared over Beijing just before Christmas during the time his message was being recorded with rock. The elders took this is another sign that 555 would overtake 666. Bear in mind that the Ambassador's symbol is the phoenix. In addition, the Pope's New Year message was about ending war and stopping slavery. Of course most of humanity would like to see this come to pass, since it is our vision is much as it is the Ambassador's. Gwen Caldwell, a Native American from South Dakota, join the Ambassador and Ron in the conversation.

Proof vaccines are a fraud

Subject: Proof vaccines are a fraud



Mumps outbreaks definitive proof vaccines have failed! 

If you watch hockey, then you've probably noticed that some of the teams have been shorthanded as guys disappear from the ice -- including one of the top players in the league, Sydney Crosby. 

But this isn't a walkout, some million-dollar contract dispute or even rash of injuries in a sport known for some pretty ghoulish ones. 

No, it's an outbreak of MUMPS -- and what's not being widely reported is that just about every player to come down with it had been vaccinated. 

If that's not a sure sign of the futility of mass vaccination, I don't know what is. 

Already, the few reports to mention that the players had all been vaccinated are busy making nonsensical excuses. Maybe the shot "wore off." Maybe they didn't get their boosters. Maybe they need a third booster -- which, of course, will lead to calls for EVERYONE to get a third booster next. 

What they won't say is that unlike many other pro sports leagues in the United States, hockey is full of guys born in commie Europe who didn't get any shots at all -- and THEY'RE not getting mumps. 

This isn't some freakishly unusual incident. It's the latest proof that when you roll up your sleeve for a vaccine, you're buying more than a poke in the arm. 

You're buying a pig in a poke. 

Right now, there's a major whooping cough outbreak among kids in "Tax"achusetts. In one school alone, 15 kids caught the disease. 

The pro-needle crowd was already blaming the state's famously generous vaccine opt-out laws... until they found out that EVERY KID in that school had been vaccinated. 

That's right: Kids who got vaccinated are getting sick. And the kids who didn't haven't had a single case yet. 

Clearly, vaccines aren't the cure-all we've been told they are. And just as clearly, skipping those shots isn't the recipe for tragedy the fearmongers want you to believe it is. 

If anything, passing on vaccines allows your immune system to grow, develop and STRENGTHEN -- and the proof is right there in today's headlines. 

Next time some quackpot doc aims a needle at you or your loved ones, feel free to tell him where to stick it. 

Needling the needlers,

GOD's Scenic Song

 From before we were born, we have been in GOD's presence  every second of our lives, yet, contemplating GOD's presence,  even for a few minutes, is a rare and wondrous experience for  us -- an experience which GOD desires.  Few on Earth realize  that the simple contemplation of GOD's presence defines worship.  JD
