Nice little montage of Illuminati/Masonic/911/Conspiracy symbolism culled from popular films. Quite a bit of a stretch in places, but still rather amusing. Possibly even….”illuminating”!

EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson engaged in doublespeak of the highest degree today as she told reporters that no statistically significant increase in global temperatures since 1995 does not mean that there has not been human induced global warming.

For anyone interested in esoteric and occult books, one of the very finest shops in the world is London’s Watkins Books. For those of you with deep pockets, please dig deep and buy the business out of bankruptcy/administration. From The Bookseller:

London’s oldest esoteric bookshop and Cecil Court ‘institution’ Watkins Books has gone into administration with 11 members of staff losing their jobs.

The bookshop, which was founded in 1897 and moved to Cecil Court in 1901, closed down yesterday (23rd February), following the appointment of administrator Harris Lipman. A sign displayed on the shop’s window read: “Shop Closed Today”.

Tim Bryars, secretary of the Cecil Court Association, told The Bookseller that it had “taken everybody by surprise”. It is understood that trading had been slower than usual, for a number of reasons…

Does a third of the population believe that “The Flinstones was a documentary”? In a poll, one out of three Texans say that humans and dinosaurs lived together at one point. Oh, and, the majority say that humanity did not develop from an earlier species. The Texas Tribune reports:

Nearly a third of Texans believe humans and dinosaurs roamed the earth at the same time, and more than half disagree with the theory that humans developed from earlier species of animals, according to the University of Texas/Texas Tribune Poll.

Amazing: after suffering his fifth heart attack, our former vice president is feeling good and expected to be discharged from the hospital in a day or two. Cheney is definitely going to be around forever; come 2100 his head will be floating in a tank of formaldehyde, barking out orders. From CNN:

Monday’s heart attack was Cheney’s fifth. The first occurred in 1978, when he was 37. He suffered his second in 1984 and his third in 1988 before undergoing quadruple bypass surgery to unblock his arteries. His fourth heart attack occurred in November 2000, after he became vice president. At that time, doctors inserted a stent to open an artery.

Doctors in 2001 implanted a device to track and control his heart rhythm. In 2008, he underwent a procedure to restore…

From MarketWatch:

Forget gold, Chinese real estate or Greek debt derivatives. A new champion in the asset-bubble wars has emerged: Superman comics.

A sale of the first Action Comics issue, from 1938, drew a winning bid of $1 million, according to an auction site called ComicConnect.com.

That’s three times what a copy of the premiere comic cost just last year. To be fair, last year’s sale was of a slightly lower-quality copy, so the appreciation over the past 12 months may be somewhat less — say, double. Still, compared with a lot of other investments over the past year, that’s not too shabby.

Returns over the longer term are only slightly less dramatic.

For a buy-and-hold purist who put money into the comic 70 years ago, the return works out to an annual compounded rate…

So now we know where David Icke got his reptilian conspiracy concept! From the wonderful world of Strange Maps:

This map is an essential ingredient of a story that has ‘Indiana Jones’ written all over it: secret caves, a lost civilisation and above all, a treasure trove of gold in unimaginable quantities. And all this in the ground below the present-day metropolis of Los Angeles.

Below are two extracts from the LA Times of 29 January 1934, in the first of which reporter Jean Bosquet details the incredible story of G. Warren Shufelt, a mining engineer, who had been told of the underground city and its treasures by a wise old Indian, had consequently located it via ‘radio X-ray’ and was currently sinking shafts into the ground to reach it.

The second extract…
