1…………> Dialog & Dialog: Mr.Xi

Despite China’s President Mr.Xi expressed hope that his nephew Comrade Un proceeds with the historic summit with President Trump, the North’s threatened to scrap the meeting, dashing hopes of the “Fake News” media to see the two leaders holding hands under the misty Singapore moonlight, ushering a new era of the nuke-free world.

DRPK First Vice Foreign Minister Kim Kye Gwan said North Korea has no interest in a ‘one-sided’ summit with the US, and the summit would only go ahead if the US came ‘with a truthful intent to improve relations’

“We support the improvement of North-South [Korean] relations, the promotion of dialogue between North Korea and the US, denuclearisation on the peninsula and North Korea’s development of its economy and improvement of its people’s livelihood,” Mr. Xi was quoted as saying by state broadcaster CCTV.

2…………> “I Wouldn’t Know”: Trump Jr.

 

President Trump’s son Donald Trump Jr. told the Senate Judiciary Committee he could not remember whether he had discussed the Russia investigation with his father and did not think there was anything wrong with attending Trump Tower meeting that is under scrutiny in special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation. 


The more than 1,800 pages of transcripts of interviews last year with president’s son and others who met with a Russian attorney at Trump Tower ahead of the 2016 election have been described as a “witch hunt”, designed to demean, offend and ultimately impeach Mr. Trump.

 
 
 

In a new wave of saber-rattling by PLA Airforce, squadrons of China latest stealth fighters and other advanced aircraft are seen in a “promotional” video nearby the Taiwan Strait. Or is a thinly disguised threat to the US and its Pacific Rim allies?

4…………>  Kilauea Alert: Stay Out

 

 
 

The United States Geological Survey (USGS) has flashed an aviation red alert for the first time for the Kilauea volcano in Hawaii as explosions intensified,  spewing ash and smog, or vog, as it is known, in the latest activity since the eruption began 12 days ago.

An aviation red alert from the USGS means a volcanic eruption is underway that could spew ash along aircraft routes.

5…………> “Zieg Ustasha”: Croat Fascists

At the annual memorial mass in Bleiburg, in the Austrian province of Carinthia, a gathering intended to celebrate the memories of the tens of thousands of militia members, regime sympathizers and civilians who were killed by Communist forces at the end of World War II, newly minted pink cheeks, goose-stepping Neo-Nazis thugs glorified the murderous ideologies from World War II — especially of Croatia’s fascist Ustasha regime, which fought alongside Nazi Germany.

The leader of the pro-Nazi Croatian Party of Rights sent a message with “blatantly hateful expressions” to the director of the memorial site to the World War II concentration camp in Jasenovac, where the majority of victims were Serbs.

1…………> Nanoparticles Cancer Drug: Russia



An experimental new cancer treatment drug, using magnetite nanoparticles laced with a toxic cytostatic agent which destroys tumor cells, and vector molecules, which accompany and direct the nanoparticles to the cancer-affected organ have been tested by the Medical University Biomedical Nanomaterials Lab in Moscow.

“Our studies have shown that the proposed therapeutic regiment is effective. In vitro and in vivo experiments show that the lifespan of animals treated with the new drug increased by 69.5%, from 23 days to 39 days. Furthermore, the drug can be used to visualize tumor tissue during MRI studies. This can potentially serve to facilitate the work of surgeons during operations aimed at designating and marking the edges of the affected organ,” the chief researcher Maxim Abakumov reported.

2…………> Don “Vito de Xi”: Chinese Debt Trap

 

The 21th-century “new socialism” theory exponentiated by China’s President Mr.Xi is reportedly using “debt-book diplomacy”, that has been advanced to 16 countries in the Asia-Pacific region by first granting loans which are beyond their capacity to pay off and subsequently freeing them from debts, in return for political concessions, according to the Harvard Kennedy school academic report detailing world’s second largest economy’s strategy to battle the US’s leverage in the region.


Pakistan and Sri Lanka, states where China’s “modus operandi” has been applied due to worsening debt, especially in Sri Lanka, where the port of Hambantota was financed by China and is feared to be part of a “debt trap,” to become in the near future a Chinese naval base as part of a swap deal.

In plain English, the “debt trap” is nothing else but thinly disguised, old-fashioned thuggery where an unfortunate person owing money to the mob may have their leg broken in lieu of payment.

3…………> Crooked MD: South Texas

 

A physician named Jorge Zamora-Quezada, 61, of McAllen, Texas area was charged in an indictment for his role in a $240 million health care fraud and international money laundering scheme with one count of conspiracy to commit health care fraud, five counts of health care fraud and one count of conspiracy to commit money laundering. 

“Jorge Zamora-Quezada allegedly orchestrated a massive fraud scheme that jeopardized the health and well-being of innocent children, elderly, and disabled victims,” said Acting Assistant Attorney General Cronan. “The allegations that Zamora-Quezada violated his oath to do no harm by administering unnecessary chemotherapy and other toxic medications to patients with serious diseases — including some of the most vulnerable victims imaginable — are almost beyond comprehension. The Criminal Division is committed to combatting health care fraud and protecting victims of reprehensible schemes like the one alleged in this case.”

As alleged in the indictment, from 2000 through the filing of the indictment, Zamora-Quezada and his co-conspirators falsely diagnosed vulnerable patients — including the young, elderly and disabled, from the Rio Grande Valley, San Antonio, and elsewhere — with various degenerative diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis. He and his co-conspirators then administered chemotherapy and other toxic medications to the patients based on that false diagnosis. In addition to falsely diagnosing patients, Zamora-Quezada and his co-conspirators allegedly conducted a battery of fraudulent, repetitive, and excessive medical procedures on patients in order to increase revenue and fund Zamora-Quezada’s lavish and opulent lifestyle.

4…………> MH370 Crash: A Planned Suicide

An international group of aviation experts has concluded that Malaysian Airlines Flight 370 (MH370), which vanished en route from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing in March 2014, was deliberately crashed by the plane’s pilot, 53-year-old Zaharie Ahmad Shah, purposefully killing the 239 people as well as himself into the Indian Ocean in a murder-suicide.



“[Shah] was killing himself; unfortunately, he was killing everybody else on board, but he did it deliberately,”a senior investigator with the Transportation Safety Board of Canada, Larry Vance, said on the Sunday night program.


“There is no reason to believe that the pilot did not depressurize the cabin to incapacitate the passengers,” Vance said.


Boeing 777 pilot and instructor Simon Hardy, who reconstructed the flight plan, claims that Shah flew along the borders of Malaysia and Thailand to avoid being detected by military radar.

5…………> Market Report 05/15/2018, sell stop 24650, CG(9392), 11/22/17

 

After a sharp reversal following President Trump “mission accomplished” announcement in Syria, market opened on a gap, forcing short covering, triggering stop at 24050, leading to a loss of 50 points. 

Current position long 24100, sell stop 24450 closed for a gain of 350 DIA points, position short at 24450, cover short closed at 24250 for a gain of 200 DIA points. 

Current position long DIA at 24250, sell stop was closed at 24250 for a loss of 50 points, and a short position established at 24250, cover short 24200 for a gain of 50 DIA points. 

A cash dispersal to AAPL shareowners in the amount of $100 billion dollars sparked a rally, new position long at 24200, stop 24650 for a gain of 450 dollars.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Stock market old timers have said that “you buy the rumor, and sell the news”, and that is exactly what is happening right now, with the news that President Trump is about to start a metal tariff war, slapping 25% surcharge on steel and 10% on aluminum. DIA resistance is in the 27,000 area, with supports at 24135, 21354 and 18900 level, US dollar in a downtrend, resistance at 1.003319 CHF, support at .92 and 0.9: Gold in an uptrend, watch break resistance of 1377 to be taken soon. The massive Fed balance sheet contraction will result in a $600 billion dollars being dumped on the credit markets each quarter, a leftover of the horrendous $4.3 trillion money printing of Obama’s septic tank that will surely exert a severe pressure on stocks and financial assets.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

We warned long ago that an organized attempt to remove President Trump from office is underway, and if this activity is not curtailed soon, the market will open on gap below 20,000 with next stop 17300 and 11800 support levels.

Stocks were down 193 to 24706, DJ futures -37, attempt to stage a covering short rally.

Gold down to 1292.3 and USD/CHF at 1.00 despite President Trump setting tariffs on Chinese products. Translation? As the dollar goes down, we have to wait and see if the new Fed Chair Jerome Powell will continue pressuring gold and the Eurasian block with it down below $1000/oz in an economic WW3. Watch sell stop at 24,600

We have to wait and see if new Fed chair Powell will attempt to destroy Eurasian block by sending gold prices below 1000, despite the fact both Russia and China have been buying their whole gold production in local gold backed currency instead of money printing machines. In other words, US has lost controls of the precious metals complex, and with Trump’s infrastructure and tax cut campaign the National debt will soon be at, or over 30 trillion dollars, since D.C. swamp alligators have no intention dropping their pet projects. Read “Ziban Must Die” for more details on the coming collision of Trump’s administration with “Deep State” operators funded by the billionaires’ supporters of the New World.

1…………> Memory Transplant: Marine Mammals

Scientists have successfully transferred a memory from one marine snail to another, a research result that will improve scientists’ understanding of memory’s cellular and molecular processes that are very similar in humans and snails, and may pave the way for better treatments for post-traumatic stress disorder and Alzheimer’s disease.

Seven of the snails that received the new RNA then went on to hide in their shells for an average of 40 seconds when the scientists came knocking, according to a paper published today in the journal eNeuro.

“It’s as though we transferred the memory,” said the study’s senior author, Dr. David Glanzman, from the University of California, Los Angeles.

Professor Glanzman said in future it might be possible to awaken and restore memories that have gone dormant in the early stages of Alzheimer’s disease or ameliorate the effects of post-traumatic stress disorder.

2…………> Let’s Go Sailing: Europa

During NASA’s Galileo spacecraft 1997 flyby Jupiter’s moon Europa, a bend in the celestial body magnetic field appears to have been caused by a geyser gushing through its frozen crust from a subsurface ocean, giving researchers reason to infer that water plumes are shooting into space.


“We know that Europa has a lot of the ingredients necessary for life, certainly for life as we know it. There’s water. There’s energy. There’s some amount of carbon material. But the habitability of Europa is one of the big questions that we want to understand,” said planetary scientist Elizabeth Turtle of Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory.

“And one of the really exciting things about detection of a plume is that that means there may be ways that the material from the ocean — which is likely the most habitable part of Europa because it’s warmer and it’s protected from the radiation environment by the ice shell — to come out above the ice shell.

“And that means we’d be able to sample it.”

 

 

 

3…………> Worksite Enforcement: ICE

Following a directive by Deputy Director Thomas Homan calling for increased worksite enforcement investigations to ensure U.S. businesses maintain a culture of compliance, HSI opened 3,510 worksite investigations; initiated 2,282 I-9 audits; and made 594 criminal and 610 administrative worksite-related arrests, respectively. In comparison, for the fiscal year 2017 – running October 2016 to September 2017 – HSI opened 1,716 worksite investigations; initiated 1,360 I-9 audits; and made 139 criminal arrests and 172 administrative arrests related to worksite enforcement.

“Our worksite enforcement strategy continues to focus on the criminal prosecution of employers who knowingly break the law, and the use of I-9 audits and civil fines to encourage compliance with the law,” said Acting Executive Associate Director for HSI, Derek N. Benner. “HSI’s worksite enforcement investigators help combat worker exploitation, illegal wages, child labor and other illegal practices.”

ICE is the federal agency responsible for upholding the laws established by the Immigration Reform and Control Act (IRCA) of 1986, which requires employers to verify the identity and work eligibility of all individuals they hire. These laws help protect jobs for U.S. citizens and others who are lawfully employed, eliminate unfair competitive advantages for companies that hire an illegal workforce, and strengthen public safety and national security.

 

 

 

 

4…………> Let’s Go Homeless: Seattle

What are the advantages of being homeless? Below are some scattered thoughts:

1. You don’t have to watch “Fake News”, or any news at all, but could in the news yourself.

2. You ain’t got no money, pay no taxes, own nothing except your blanket and possibly a pillow.

3. You can sleep as long as you can until unwelcome hunger wakes you up.

4. No social fly considerations, fashion, daily washing and grooming and other annoying waste of time.

5. You can shout at anybody smaller than you, and show a finger to someone bigger than you, provided he is across a tall fence.

6. All the money you collect are absolutely tax-free, and the extra quarters earned by selling your empty cans and bottles do not need to be reported to IRS.

 

Apparently, the Seattle City Council is trying to violate your Constitutional rights to sleep under that cozy and safe underpass by voting unanimously for a passage of “housing affordability” tax, a “fat-cat” tax that will raise $47million from those poor guys at Amazon and Starbucks who have piled up so much money that a cash purchase of the US government is not out of the question. 


“We remain very apprehensive about the future created by the council’s hostile approach and rhetoric toward larger businesses,” said Amazon’s vice president Drew Herdener disagreed following the vote.

“[It] forces us to question our growth here.”

And Starbucks said: “This City continues to spend without reforming and fail without accountability.”

5…………> Yogurt Diet: A Delicious Miracle?

Results from a new study at the University of Wisconsin-Madison supports the hypothesis that yogurt can reduce inflammation by improving the integrity of the intestinal lining, thus preventing endotoxins, the pro-inflammatory molecules produced by gut microbes, from crossing into the bloodstream.

In a sample of 120 premenopausal women, half obese and half non-obese, half of the participants were assigned to eat 12 ounces of low-fat yogurt every day for nine weeks while a control group ate non-dairy pudding for nine weeks.

Team leader Dr.Brad Bolling, assistant professor of food science at Wisconsin-Madison, and his associates took fasting blood samples from participants at various points during the study and evaluated an assortment of biomarkers that scientists have used to measure endotoxin exposure and inflammation.

The results showed that while some of the biomarkers remained steady over time, the yogurt-eaters experienced statistically significant improvements in certain key markers, such as tumor necrosis factor or TNF, an important inflammation-activating protein.

“The results indicate that ongoing consumption of yogurt may be having a general anti-inflammatory effect,” said Dr.Bolling.

A study published on Monday in the Journal of Nutrition provided new evidence that yogurt might help dampen chronic inflammation, a factor in inflammatory bowel disease, arthritis, and asthma.
