United Nations Agenda
21
John Tisdale
The
Freedom 21 group is a local response to United Nations Agenda 21 the
UN blueprint for world governance in the 21st century. Agenda 21
is hammering away at top speed in Santa Cruz county [California], propelled
by the fascist Santa Cruz bureaucracy.
It
affects me personally. That's why I'm getting involved. My
little community has its own private water company serving 17 houses.
The water comes from a spring that runs 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
We pump water from the spring to a holding tank on top of a hill, then
gravity feed to the individual houses. We use only a small portion
of the water from the spring, and the rest flows down a creek to the ocean.
Of course, this is wasteful, but the spring has been flowing like this
for millions of years.
United
Nations Agenda 21 mandates a world-wide goal of reducing water consumption
from the present 70 gallons a day per person to 10 gallons a day per person.
In line with this mandate, implementing U.N. treaties, completely circumventing
U.S., state, and local law, Santa Cruz County is requiring us to put water
meters on our spring-fed supply lines. The county intends to monitor
our water consumption, eventually limiting us to 10 gallons a day per person.
We are being targeted first because we are highly visible, but this same
fascism is coming soon to a faucet near you.
The
consequences are far greater, however, than 10 gallons for you and me.
Agriculture, for example, requires a lot more than 70 gallons a day per
person; think of the disruption. But disruption is the intent
disruption, devastation, chaos, leading to total world-wide fascist control.
A liberal utopia. If Hitler had been a little smarter, he would have
said "Today the water, tomorrow the world." Simple. Effective.![10x5 Page Background GIF Image](../../Images/10x5_Page_Background.gif)
The Galaxian Lesson
Sam Aurelius Milam III
Back
during the early and middle 80's, I spent a bit of time in the video arcades.
My favorite game was Galaxian. While I wasn't by any means an expert,
I could at least play the game well enough that it didn't seem like a complete
waste of a token. I usually reached maybe level 3 or 4 before the
machine got me.
One
day, I strolled into the arcade and observed that my favorite console was
occupied by some young fellow who I discovered, after a minute or so of
observation, was far and away a better player than I would ever be.
His cool command of the game was a marvel to behold. His play was
flawless. With a sure eye and a quick hand, he obliterated every
target that appeared on the screen. The machine couldn't touch him.
He had reached a level that I hadn't even dreamed existed.
I
had just about decided that the guy would be able to continue indefinitely
when a fetching young lass about his age drifted over and placed a token
on the console, just below the screen. For the briefest instant,
his eyes flicked her direction. That one glance was all it took.
His concentration was totally shattered. She had rendered him utterly
incompetent. Within 15 seconds, he was out of the game and ....
...
THAT is a good example why men and women should not be expected to work
together in the same workplace.![10x5 Page Background GIF Image](../../Images/10x5_Page_Background.gif)
Liberty Video Mighty Joe Young
Reviewed by Don J. Cormier
This
story has been filmed twice, once in the late 40's, and more recently in
1998. This is a review of the more recent film, which is directed
by Ron Underwood, and which stars Charlize Theron, Bill Paxton, and the
astounding special-effects skills of the Walt Disney Studios. The
theme of the film is the conflict of natural innocence and civilized corruption.
"Joe" of the title is a giant gorilla, who is taken away from his natural
African habitat, and put on display in Los Angeles. Corrupt humans
try to kill Joe but, after complicated adventures, Joe ends up back in
his African home. The film raises all sorts of political questions
about the preservation of the environment, the proper relationship between
humans and other species, the impact of Western culture on less high-tech
cultures, and the relative value of civilization. Theodore Kaczynski
should love this movie! Ironically, real-life civilization is responsible
for the "performance" of Mighty Joe, because the giant ape is mostly a
marvelous computer animation. Cybernetic Joe definitely steals the
show from the merely human performers, who tend to either over or under
act. Perhaps because it was based on a 1940's source, the film is
highly melodramatic. Still, for kids, and for adults who can psyche
themselves into a kiddy matinee mind-set, Mighty Joe Young presents
inspirational themes.![10x5 Page Background GIF Image](../../Images/10x5_Page_Background.gif)
