The NigeriaSat-2 and NigeriaSat-X spacecraft were lofted into orbit aboard a Russian Dnepr rocket from a launch pad in the town of Yasny, southern Russia.

Nigeria has successfully launched two Earth observation satellites which could be used to monitor weather in a region seasonally ravaged by disasters.

Death penalty now a possibility in alleged Mississippi hate killing

Editor's note: The following story contains language some readers may consider offensive.

Jackson, Mississippi (CNN) -- The prosecutor investigating the hit-and-run killing of a black man in Jackson, Mississippi, announced he has upgraded the charge against suspect Deryl Dedmon from murder to capital murder. This makes the white 19-year-old suspect eligible for a possible death sentence if convicted.

The killing -- which sparked national attention after CNN obtained and aired exclusive surveillance video that shows the attack as it took place -- is also being investigated by the U.S. Justice Department, federal and Mississippi officials tell CNN.

Federal investigators are in Jackson at the request of Smith, who says he will be seeking indictments against some or all of the white teens in coming weeks.

"This was a racially motivated murder, committed because the victim was black. We want to prosecute and bring justice in this case to the fullest extent of the law,"

But Hinds and officials from the DA's office say they hope to bring indictments against not only Dedmon and Rice, but also other teens who were in their cars and part of the attack that early morning. Read more at www.cnn.com

Obama: I Reversed Recession Until 'Bad Luck' Hit?

Hetep and Respect Mr. President, I love you dearly but take my advise and don't use the term "Good Luck" again. Now I don't know if this is true however, I am sure your advisers have told you by now that the Retuglicans will ram those words up you rectum (in or out of context) with Dollar pointed criminal bankster pitchforks.

The good news is you made the error early in the campaign.

Global headwinds is good political phraseology, there is no bad luck in politics my friend.

The Reality is

It's refreshing to hear a new excuse from the President. At least it's not Bush's Fault this time!

This was said on MSNBC/newsvine by a conservative in his column.

No, this is not the reality, the reality is, this is still the Great Bush Recession/Depression of 08. It will take at least 10 years, if not 20, to dig out of this Republican mess. Don't forget the Bush Wars. We can never let the citizens forget that it was the Republicans from Reagan attacking unions and Bank regulations, to sell America out to China, India and the banksters, to Bush and the forty thieves that cause the Republican bankruptcy of the nation (Banks insolvent - no money- economy dead in water).

We hired the smart guy to bring us back from the brink and he has.

He is right, recovery on tract, till too many Dems stayed home in 2010 and allowed the crazy's to stack the lower house with the same people and ideology that bankrupt the nation. They have been in there more then 200 days and have not passed a bill to produce one job or rebuild one single brick in our Nation. Republicans are now uniting against the creation of an infrastructure bank to put Americans back to work.

It is not bad luck that is preventing jobs, it is bad Republicans that are preventing jobs.

Mr. President you don't actually have to speak at town hall meetings. You just have to play the 28 second tape of the Republican Presidential candidate saying that "...Corporations are... human beings..." and the one with the Texes presidential candidate saying that Social Security and medicare are unconstitutional. End of story, you are reelected by all the elders of the nation and their children and you get a Democratic house with a land slide.

Bankster homework see these documentaries in this order.
1. Inside Job - How Reagan to Bush and the Banksters bankrupt the nation
2. Capitalism: A Love Story

The reality is we have some bad actors in the Dem Party to. I hired this president to bring single payer on-line. My recommendation Mr. President is to get that job done, launch the green moon shot and let the next Dem President, after your second term focus on re-regulating the banks if we the American people show the orbs to end our enslavement to the Banksters.

In the 2012 election we the people have to demonstrate that we have the orbs to give you the juice to tax the rich and finish the health care reform that we hired you to start.

Poor Whites in Azania (South Africa) - Video

If you listen to many Cultural Terrorists in America they would have you believe that poverty is only Black or mostly Black. You have some White Americans that think poverty is a Black mental condition or physical condition or something built into African American Culture, not so says this 2 minute video.




There are still to many Americans, including AA's, that believe all Africans are poor. The culture you live in has a lot to do with who is poor and who is not. Who has opportunity and who does not. There is a lesson in this video for the worlds people. Poverty anywhere is a threat to opportunity everywhere.

Leading Republican Presidential Candidate - Corporations are Human Beings (Video 28)

Just in case you think that Bush and the forty thieves are the only ones who will dupe low information voters into thinking Corporations are people, listen to this guy. (Video 28 Seconds)




We all know of the criminal Republican SCOTUS and their Citizens United partisan ruling that Corporations are people. Unfortunately the purpose was not clear to the information disabled. Let me make the purpose clear. The Bush Supreme Court intended to enable insurrectionist corporations to take control of voting through the Tea Party and its Republican corpse in America. The plan is to nullifying the American people's vote with money.

I first saw this corporate immoral money used in the Wisconsin Republican Recall elections. They lost two of their Republican "Bullet Proof" districts even with all the money they poured in. But to hear a human being actually say to a crowd that corporations are people too, is Amazing. Republicans really do think the masses are asses.

Well we have a message for the criminal, no tax paying corporations, like FOX in 2012

My Top Three Issues +

1. Create Jobs is Job one

2. Health Care Reform upgraded to Single Payer

3. End Bush Wars

4. Pass law and amendment no corporate money in elections.

Rick Perry: Social Security and Medicare Are Unconstitutional

The Republicans Started Killing the Middle Class in 1981

Criminal Corporations and Cultural Anti-humanists joined forces in 1981 in a back lash to the 1960's with a new anti-humanist push for greed is good profits.



You won't believe who helped them. 2012 may be our last chance to turn around this 30 year attack. However, we need to be on the same page if we are going to win, so read on.

30 years ago: The day the middle class died

From time to time, someone under 30 will ask me, "When did this all begin, America's downward slide?" They say they've heard of a time when working people could raise a family and send the kids to college on just one parent's income (and that college in states like California and New York was almost free). That anyone who wanted a decent paying job could get one. That people only worked five days a week, eight hours a day, got the whole weekend off and had a paid vacation every summer. That many jobs were union jobs, from baggers at the grocery store to the guy painting your house, and this meant that no matter how "lowly" your job was you had guarantees of a pension, occasional raises, health insurance and someone to stick up for you if you were unfairly treated.

Young people have heard of this mythical time - but it was no myth, it was real. And when they ask, "When did this all end?", I say, "It ended on this day: August 5th, 1981."

Beginning on this date, 30 years ago, Big Business and the Right Wing decided to "go for it" - to see if they could actually destroy the middle class so that they could become richer themselves.

And they've succeeded.

On Aug. 5, 1981, President Ronald Reagan fired every member of the air traffic controllers union (PATCO) who'd defied his order to return to work and declared their union illegal. They had been on strike for just two days. Read more at eastvalleytribune.com

Cultural Traitors Cornel West & Tavis Smiley on Obama (Video)

Dr. Cornel, Socratic, West has long been tagged as a Cultural Traitor by most of the African centered scholars I know. Smiley has only relativity recently come up as a blip on RaceDar.

Dr. West's treasonous behavior centers around the Culturally Poisoned symptom of always quoting Greek philosophers and never mentioning or quoting philosophers from Classical African Civilization, Kemet (Ancient Egypt). His attacks on the President, this not being the first one, are just confirming symptoms of his cultural poisoning. He, like Dr. Skip, the truth, Gates are sort of Democratic Clarence Thomas'.

Smiley has always been under cultural suspension in my book with those circular firing squad TV specials stocked with Black people to no particular purpose then his own notoriety. I have never heard him give any indication he has ever heard the words Classical African Civilization in a sentence let alone that he is Culturally Literate. My limited knowledge of him left me with the impression that he was CultureGraphically somewhere between a Sleeping Giant and a Cultural Citizen at best.

He came on my Racedar screen when he lied on Rev. Al Sharpton. And to make matters worse, he did not call the reverend privately to clear it up but I heard him publicly call Reverend Al during his radio show, lie to the Rev. to his face and just make matters worst. Rev. Al read him the riot act and I was done with Mr. Smiley. This latest symptom of Cultural Poisoning also rises to the level of treasonous and is confirmatory for me.

By passing the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and launching the Electronic Medical record project, the President has done more for Americans in general and AA's in particular, then anyone in my lifetime since King, Kennedy and Johnson.

Thinking Americans should be helping to consolidate that win and help him get single payer passed in his next term.

If there is a problem it is that we the American people including AA's have not given him the kind of landslide support and both houses of congress that he needs to move the progressive agenda on his terms. The focus should be fixing that in 2012 by infusing the President with the juice he needs, not this show boating distraction.

Now had they done a Bush Poverty Bus Tour, and this was a follow up, one might be able to give them the benefit of the doubt. But an Obama Poverty Bus Tour? For Bush and the forty thieves Republican created poverty, that they do not mention, is a joke. And it would be funny if it was not part of their treasonous behavior patterns.

Now don't get me wrong I love the brothers, but like the wicked witch of the West Dr. Rice and here come the judge Thomas, I recommend that no self respecting AA's touch these two with a ten foot poll, till they repent and wish to return to the AA community.

Amen

Cornel West & Tavis Smiley on Obama: "Many of Us Are Exploring Other Possibilities in Coming Election”

We speak with veteran journalist Tavis Smiley and Princeton University Professor Cornel West about President Barack Obama and the 2012 elections.

"He’s rightly associated much more with the oligarchs than with poor people," says West. Adds Smiley, "I don’t think the President would be hurt, necessarily—the country certainly would not be hurt—by a primary challenge that would refocus him on what really matters. It would refocus him on what’s happening to too many people in this country. It would refocus him on a more progressive agenda." [includes rush transcript] Read more at www.democracynow.org

Pfizer: Pays for illegally Experimenting on Black People

If Pfizer was illegally experimenting on Black people in Africa what might they be doing to black people here in America?

Pfizer: Nigeria drug trial victims get compensation

US-based pharmaceutical giant Pfizer has made the first compensation payment to Nigerian families affected by a controversial drug trial 15 years ago.

It paid $175,000 (£108,000) each to four families in the first of a series of payments it is expected to make.

The children were part of a group of 200 given the drug during a meningitis epidemic in the northern city of Kano as part of a medical trial comparing Trovan's effectiveness with the established treatment.

For years Pfizer maintained that meningitis - not the drug - caused the deaths and disabilities.

Pfizer also agreed to sponsor health projects in Kano as well as creating a fund of $35m to compensate those affected. Read more at www.bbc.co.uk

Mass Insurrection in London Caused by Police Murder of Citizen

If you listen to most of the news in America about the So called London "Riots". You would think that British youth just woke up and decided to fire bomb police stations for no reason. wrong. (Video)

Amy Goodman (the best reporter in the USA) interviews an African Brit and a European Brit to get the real story.

More then 300 African Brits have died in police custody in the past 11 years. That is almost 2 dead Blacks a month and not a single police person has been arrested and tried?

This sounds a lot like America in the 60's and under George, the torturer, Bush and his forty thieves. The same type of culturally poisoned out of control police seem to be loose in London.

What's Next in Wisconsin? Recall Scott Walker

I am with our fellow progressive who have shown us how to come off defense and go on offense in WI.

It took the Bush Republican criminal supreme court to keep Republicans in play in their own districts. We have had the dry run, now it is time to take Scott Walker out as we elect our President to a second term and give him a Dem house.

It is not the evil doers (Bush un-dead)who will destroy a nation but good people who sit home. We demonstrated we can turn out good people in bad Bush districts, so state wide Walker is as good as out.

Criminal Banks Defraud Homeowners With Fake Documents (Video)

60 minutes uncovers Criminal Banks defrauding homeowners with forged documents. Big names like Bank of America mentioned in wide spread practice of foreclosure fraud. How do you get your money back?

Imagine that, most homeowners who have gone through foreclosure, and the bank says they can not find the documents, take for granted the banks are telling the truth. It is a mistake right and they will find the real documents any minute, wrong.

See the first segment of 60 minutes Foreclosed Houses 


 Who knew that the ownership papers were burnt up by bankster sub-prime mortgage derivatives as they blew up. Then one or two years later they miraculously find the papers that say they own the property and have a right to foreclose. What did you say, they defrauded the courts faking out the foreclosure judges and the homeowners virtually stealing the home with forged documents.

Were your "bank documents" signed by Linda Green V.P.?

You should note that the video does not mention a whole range of bottom feeders from real estate brokers to bankruptcy lawyers to home flippers that took, and are, taking advantage of home owners caught in these bank fraud scenarios that bankrupt the nation in 2008.

Nor does it mention the criminal activity at some rating firms that rated junk bonds as AAA. What would 10 trillion in junk do to the financial industry and what role did your house play?

Yes, you remember when Bush and the forty thieves bankrupt the nation. They took regulations off the banks and the banks went wild creating what is now called dirty paper causing banks to need something called "Stress Testing". Most of the paper was worthless and banks started going belly up remember the news reports. The banks found out they were all stealing from each other with bad paper and stopped lending to each other. They froze the money supply in the nation. You remember the Bush Bank bail outs in exchange for 4 pieces of paper from the banksers that said they did not have to pay back the peopl's money and could not go to jail no matter what they did.

Then we (American People) threw the Republicans out and hired a new President and his team to get the people's money back from the banksters. The banks payed back our government but what about you.

Now the question is, how do you get stolen money back from a Bank? Specifically, your bank, if they criminally robed you?

If you pay your mortgage on time, never missed a payment and your house has not been foreclosed on and you think this dose not apply to you, think again. What happens if you try to sell your house and you Can't? See this 60 minutes back story on the hidden problem behind the Bush Mortgage Mess.

How Pelosi Saved Boehner's You-Know-What

The speaker, as it turned out, did not have enough Republican votes to pass the bill—only 174—and he had made no arrangement to guarantee its success. When there were minutes left for the vote, and it became apparent that Boehner would fall far short of the 216 votes necessary for passage, Pelosi's Democrats began voting in favor of the measure. "We were not going to let it go down," she told a small group of journalists on Wednesday morning.

In past years, a House speaker and the leader of the opposition, would probably confer before such a crucial vote and figure out how to move the legislation through the chamber. Read more at carloz.newsvine.com

Stampede from Android, RIM to Iphone Expected

This study is interesting and parallels what I see in real life. I have two friends who are computer illiterate and both have button cell phones. They both want to buy Iphones this week.



It seems like all the young people at my local pool that I ask about what they plan to get, say Iphone.



I was at a family party recently and my little niece came up to me and asked, "do you know what I ask people when I meet them?" I said no. She said "I ask them if they have an Ipone and crazy birds" I am crazy about the Iphone.



Even if I did not see this study I know something remarkable is happening.

Survey: Nearly Half of All Android, RIM Users Plan iPhone Switch

Nearly half of all Android and BlackBerry users plan to switch to an iPhone, according to a small survey conducted by Piper Jaffray. The results were based on a sample size of 216 mobile users surveyed in downtown Minneapolis, MN, but the results complemented a much larger ChangeWave survey published last week, and existing usage stats were comparable to ComScore's recent tally. The breakdown of those surveyed included iPhone users (29 percent), BlackBerry users (28 percent), Android users (17 percent), "other" (read: Windows Phone 7 and Symbian) users (11 percent), and feature phone users (15 percent). Among existing Android users, 47 percent said they expected their next phone to be an Android device and 42 percent planned to switch to an iPhone. Loyalty was much weaker for BlackBerry users, of whom 26 percent planned to buy another BlackBerry, 67 percent planned to get an iPhone, and three percent planned to get an Android device. Carrier-wise, AT&T and T-Mobile may lose customers once their contracts run out. AT&T, currently the most popular existing network in the survey, will lose out to Verizon, the second most-popular existing network, while both T-Mobile and Sprint will lose a few percentage points, presumably to Verizon as well. AT&T and T-Mobile may have taken a hit over its controversial proposal to merge, a plan apparently favored by tech companies and loathed by consumerists (and Sprint). Lastly Piper Jaffray found that the already-small population of feature phone owners is about to shrink even more. Of the 15 percent of people using feature phones, nine percent planned to get a smartphone next. Of the 64 percent of those planning to buy an iPhone, 36 percent said they were holding out for the "iPhone 5" despite there being no firm details (or even a launch date) for the device. Based on second quarter reports, Apple pockets 66.3 percent of the world's cell phone profits despite selling only 20 percent of the world's supply of cell phones. There's been a headrush of buzz about the next-generation iPhone, but this fall we're expecting to see the first wave of Blackberry 7 and Windows Phone 7.5 devices, aka "Mango."
