Is the Government About to Reveal the Existence of Extraterrestrial Alien Life?
An official announcement by the Obama administration disclosing the reality of extraterrestrial life is imminent. For several months, senior administration officials have been quietly deliberating behind closed doors how much to disclose to the world about extraterrestrial life. Dissatisfaction among powerful institutions such as the U.S. Navy over the decades-long secrecy policy has given a boost to efforts to disclose the reality of extraterrestrial life and technology.

Senate Democrats Use Nuclear Option to Bring Climate Change Bill from Committee to Floor, But Senator Inhofe Says Bill Is Dead
1. This climate change bill will be the LARGEST TAX INCREASE IN AMERICAN HISTORY!
2. This is the first time that a bill has been passed out of a Senate committee without any minority party votes.
3. The Senate is focusing on health care and climate change when Americans want them to focus on jobs, roads, highways and construction.
4. The Senate does not want Americans to know how much this bill will cost.
5. USA has more total energy and mineral reserves than any other country, but the country is not allowed to develop and exploit 83% of its reserves.
6. However, the bill is dead, because Max Baucus voted against the bill and he is the chairman of the Senate Finance Committee.
Saudi Arabia Orders 10,000,000 Doses of GSK's Pandemrix™
You can read the Pandemrix™ package insert by clicking this sentence.
“The authority ... has been following through all the phases of the production of the A (H1N1) flu vaccine by several international companies specialised in vaccines,” the SFDA said in a statement posted on its website.
The authority added that it decided to register GlaxoSmithKline’s vaccine, which is distributed under the Pandemrix brand name.
Saudi Arabia will begin a national vaccination campaign on Saturday, he said. The kingdom has a population of nearly 25 million, nearly a third of whom are expatriates. Priority will be given to pilgrims and hospital staff, health ministry spokesman Khaled Mirghalani said.
Remixx World! has previously documented the Pandemrix™ vaccine in the article GlaxoSmithKline's Pandemrix Approved for Use in the United Kingdom (Ingredients Include Squalene, Thimerosal and H1N1).

Remote Amazon Indian Tribe Hit by H1N1 "Swine Flu" (7 Dead)
It is feared the flu could sweep through the area and kill many more Yanomami as the Indians have little resistance to introduced diseases.
About 32,000 Yanomami live in the Venezuela-Brazil border region and form the largest relatively isolated tribe in the Amazon.
I bet that the W.H.O. or its regional designee will attempt to vaccine the Yanomami tribe for the H1N1 after this recent outbreak.

AFSCME Council 61 Wins Mandatory Flu Vaccination Arbitration (University of Iowa Hospitals Must Cease "Universal Influenza Vaccination Policy")
11/3/2009
On November 1, 2009, an independent arbitrator sustained the grievance the American Federation of State, County, and Municipal Employees (AFSCME) Council 61 filed to oppose the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics' work directive to require mandatory vaccinations for all staff. Earlier this year, on September 21, AFSCME and the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics entered into an agreement to submit this matter to binding arbitration, which was resolved in AFSCME's favor. The arbitration states that employer must immediately cease and desist the "Universal Influenza Vaccination Policy." AFSCME Iowa Council 61 represents roughly 2000 employees at UIHC including custodial, maintenance, and other staff that make the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics run smoothly every day.
"AFSCME wants to have an H1N1 free workplace for employees and the public, however this practice violated the terms of the collective bargaining agreement this Union had with University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics. The workers that AFSCME represents have always had a very high rate of voluntary participation of flu vaccinations, and we felt this work rule was not warranted. No one should be forced to choose between their job and getting a flu shot," said Danny Homan, President of AFSCME Iowa Council 61. ###

Authorities Deny Aircraft Are Spraying Aerosol Chemtrails and Forced Medications Over Ukrainian Cities (Martial Law Expected as Mystery Flu Spreads)
###
As I peruse the news sites on a daily basis, one of the sites I continually find myself reading is Infowars Ireland. I have no idea if this Irish site is affiliated with the Infowars.com here in the United States that is headed by Alex Jones, but it seems to have a very similar message. And considering the number of times I have gone to the Infowars Ireland site, it would just a matter of time before the site was going to make its debut here at Remixx World!
Infowars Ireland has recently reported on the alleged aerosol spraying of Ukrainian skies in connection with the recent mysterious viral outbreak in the country. The article is listed in its entirety below. This aerosol spraying story also relates to this blog's previous article called Mysterious Virus Hits Ukraine and Infects Thousands of People (Is it Influenza or Pneumonic Plague?).

Panic in Ukraine, Authorities deny aircraft are spraying aerosols over cities, Martial Law expected
Infowars Ireland Staff Writer
Authorities in Kiev, Ukraine, deny spraying of “aerosolized medication” by aircraft over city.
The office of Emergency Response in the district of Desniansko, Kiev, are tonight (30th Oct.) strongly refuting reports that light aircraft were spraying a substance over the city intended to counter a “swine flu pandemic” in Ukraine.
It was reported that light aircraft were seen over the Forest market area of the city (close to the Forest metro station) and they were spraying an aerosol substance intended to “counter swine flu”, this of course would constitute forced medication of the population.
The editors of local newspapers in Kiev received dozens of phone calls from concerned residents and shop owners in the Forest market area of the city reporting they had observed several light airplanes circling in the sky during the day spraying an unidentified aerosol into the atmosphere.
Retailers and local business people reported they were advised to “stay indoors” during the day by local authorities.
Local newspapers contacted government administrators in Kiev and were told that “no permission had been granted today (30th Oct.) for small aviation aircraft to fly within the city limits”. Also local FM radio stations in Kiev were regularly refuting the reports during broadcasts today, apparently under duress from local authorities.
Reports of helicopters and light airplanes spraying aerosols over Kiev, Lviv, Ternopil, and other cities throughout Ukraine are tonight flooding online forums and websites, hundreds of people have verified the reports with their own eye-witness accounts.
On 30th October President Viktor Yushchenko ordered the Ministry of Defense to establish mobile military hospitals throughout Ukraine, to assist and provide “essential medications” to people with swine-flu. Yushchenko has also ordered medical personnel from the reserve defense forces to report for duty.
An order from President Yushchenko is expected soon that will effectively place Ukraine under “martial law”.
“Due to the complex epidemiological situation in the western regions of Ukraine, where tens of thousands of people have become ill, thousands are in hospital, and dozens have died.”
Nine regions of Ukraine have declared a quarantine around the country and public events have been banned (including the elections).The Clergy have been ordered not to hold any Church or religious services on Sundays or to gather a congregation for any reason whatsoever. Police are also enforcing the compulsory wearing of protective face masks, any driver caught not wearing a mask faces harsh legal penalties.
Earlier, health authorities in western Ukraine reported a “severe outbreak of UNIDENTIFIED Influenza, suspected by doctors to be a form of viral pneumonia”. The disease has already claimed a number of lives in the region. In Lviv, schools have been closed and authorities are conducting emergency meetings to determine how to deal with the outbreak.

Mysterious Virus Hits Ukraine and Infects Thousands of People (Is it Influenza or Pneumonic Plague?)
***
I know that the first thing someone reading this article will say is big deal. There are thousands being infected with the H1N1 "swine flu" here in the United States and worldwide. Ukraine is just feeling the pandemic like the rest of the world.
One thing though, this Ukrainian virus that has infected thousands of people isn't the same H1N1 "swine flu" that this blog has discussed at length since April, 2009.
Ukrainian News Agency "Fraza" reported that, according to informed sources, "it has been confirmed 100 % Pneumonic Plague in Ukraine".
The Agency asserts that "the head physician of the medical institutions has sent out an informal disposal - not to sow panic, to refute the information about the plague, and to speak only of swine influenza".
The mystery virus does not yet have a name, but the Ukrainian press and doctors refer to the H1N1 "swine flu" in the United States of America as the "California Flu." This new virus has infected thousands of people in Ukraine in parallel with the California Flu. While the H1N1 California Flu has only killed one (1) person in the Ukraine, this mysterious virus has already killed over sixty (60) people. Currently, there is no vaccine.
If you check out the image above, you will see that it relates back to a previous Remixx World! article called MOSSAD Microbiologist Moshe Says H1N1 "Swine Flu" is a Bioweapon! about Joseph Moshe who called into a Los Angeles talk show to warn people about Baxter's Ukrainian lab that was allegedly producing bioweapons disguised as a vaccine. The LAPD quickly took out Mr. Moshe and utilized law enforcement hardware that has never been seen before on a live national newscast, including robots! Mr. Moshe was even able to withstand heavy pepper spraying which reflects the likelihood that Mr. Moshe was more than meets the eye!
Baxter International also "accidentally" sent live bird flu virus to an Austrian lab in an experimental seasonal flu vaccine back in March, 2009. If the subcontractors had not caught the accident, then it is possible that people could have received live bird flu through a seemingly harmless vaccine. Therefore, Baxter may have blood on its hands if these allegations are true. Now that this mystery virus in Ukraine has spread to pandemic status killing many more people than the California Flu has killed in Ukraine, maybe Mr. Moshe was telling the truth.
I had to check out the local Ukrainian news sites (Fraza.ua) which were in Russian to get this information, so the information I am citing comes from a Google translator. Therefore, the information and news may not translated 100%. Nevertheless, the articles are linked below. As this story develops, I will flesh out this article.

Novartis A(H1N1) Pandemic Influenza vaccine Focetria® receives positive opinion from CHMP
* Significant milestone in bringing pandemic influenza vaccines to market in Europe
* Novartis delivers first shipments of A(H1N1) vaccine to governments in Europe just three months after the WHO declaration of the pandemic
* Focetria formulated with MF59® adjuvant which can boost the body's immune response and increase protective antibody levels with less antigen than needed with non-adjuvanted vaccines
Basel, September 25, 2009 - Novartis announced today that Focetria®, the Novartis Influenza A(H1N1) 2009 monovalent vaccine, has received a positive opinion from the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) of the European Medicines Agency (EMEA). The positive opinion clears the way for European Union approval in all 27 Member States as well as in Iceland and Norway. Today's announcement marks a significant milestone in bringing a pandemic vaccine to market in Europe.
Focetria, the Novartis Influenza A(H1N1) 2009 monovalent vaccine is an inactivated influenza virus vaccine indicated for active immunization of persons of six months of age and older against influenza disease caused by the novel pandemic A(H1N1) influenza virus. The pandemic vaccine has been developed using traditional influenza manufacturing processes in an egg-based formulation. Focetria contains MF59®, Novartis proprietary adjuvant, which has been added to boost the immune response in individuals receiving the vaccine. MF59 can elicit protective antibody levels with a lower dose, just 7.5 micrograms of viral antigen versus 15 micrograms in non-adjuvanted vaccines, potentially resulting in greater vaccine supply.
Novartis has already started first deliveries of pandemic vaccines under quarantine to governments in Europe, despite the initially low yields with the current production seed strain provided by the World Health Organization (WHO). A new seed strain could provide higher volumes.
"Only three months after the declaration of the pandemic by the WHO, Novartis was able to ship the first batches of our pandemic vaccine under quarantine to governments in Europe pending EU approval," said Andrin Oswald, CEO of Novartis Vaccines and Diagnostics. "This CHMP positive opinion paves the way for EU approval, which will allow governments to begin their vaccination campaigns with the goal of reaching more patients before the rapidly spreading virus reaches them. Several recent clinical trials suggest that just one dose of pandemic vaccine can protect healthy adults, which means that now the vaccine can be provided to more people than if two doses were needed."
Focetria was previously approved by the EU in May 2007 as a mock-up file to be used once the WHO declared a pandemic. This previous approval was based on clinical studies involving the MF59 adjuvant and different influenza strains with pandemic potential, including H5N1 and H9N2.
Novartis also plans to begin delivery of its Fluvirin® A(H1N1) monovalent vaccine to the US market by early October. The US Food and Drug Administration approved this vaccine on September 15, 2009. Data derived from recent clinical trials of Fluvirin conducted in Costa Rica indicate that a single-dose regimen is as effective as a two-dose regime in healthy adults ages 18-64 suggesting the potential to extend A(H1N1) vaccine supply further to support public health efforts. The trial was conducted in 784 healthy adults.
About MF59®
Novartis proprietary MF59 adjuvant has an established safety profile, supported by more than 12 years of clinical safety data and more than 40 million doses of commercial use in Europe. The adjuvant has been studied in clinical trials involving more than 26,000 people, including children, and has been licensed for use in people 65 years of age and over in the seasonal influenza vaccine, Fluad®, since 1997 in the European Union. Fluad is not licensed for sale in the U.S.

How to Build a Small 45 Watt Solar Generator Power Station for Under $500!
1. 45 watt solar panel kit by Harbor Freight (3 - 15 watt panels, includes power regulator) - $250
2. Cobra 400 watt power inverter - $30
3. Deep cycle marine 12 volt battery - $90 or an Optima 51r ($175)
TOTAL --> $370 or $455 (if you get the Optima battery)
Optional: Schumacher SSC-1000A Automatic Speed Battery Charger ($55)
The solar panel kit will contain all the parts one needs to get free energy from the sun.
1. Assemble solar panel and regulator according to kit.
2. Hook the solar panel kit up to the deep cycle marine battery.
3. Put the solar panels into the sunlight and leave the solar panels in the sun until the battery is fully charged.
4. Once the battery is charged, hook the power inverter up to the battery according to the inverter's instructions.
5. Plug your mobile electronics or other devices into the compatible plugs on the power inverter and enjoy the power of the sun!
6. (Optional) - If you also get the battery charger above, you can use the charger to test your battery levels, so you will know when to charge the battery. Also if you happen to find a live circuit somewhere, you can use the speed charger to quickly charge your batteries when no sun is available.
A forty-five (45) watt system is not going to be sufficient to power a home, but it will be a decent amount of power for simple electronic devices and tasks. If you want to get more power, then you can buy additional 15 solar watt panels and/or batteries to expand your system as you may need or can afford. However, please be advised that as your system increases, you will want to ensure that your inverter is always powerful enough to handle the power of your system.
Here is a link to the estimated watts of various household appliances.

Two Bad Reactions from H1N1 "Swine Flu" Vaccine Immunization Program in Winnipeg, Canada!
Since the mass immunization began in Winnipeg Monday, two people have had rare allergic reactions to it, according to the Winnipeg Regional Health Authority.
"We have had two incidents involving some allergic-type symptoms," said Dr. Sande Harlos, a WRHA medical officer of health. "This is what we're prepared to deal with."
The maker of the H1N1 vaccine, GlaxoSmithKline, warns that up to one in 1,000 doses may result in an allergic reaction leading to a "dangerous decrease of blood pressure."
Don't forget to read down to end of the linked article, because there is a 1-2 paragraph discussion of thimerosal and how it is basically harmless (NOT!).
Thimerosal is a mercury-based preservative. In large concentrations, or over extended periods of exposure, mercury can cause damage to the brain and kidneys. However, the Public Health Agency of Canada says the amount of mercury in the H1N1 flu vaccine is significantly less than in a can of tuna.

350 Cases of Side Effects from Pandemrix H1N1 "Swine Flu" Vaccine Shot Reportedly in Sweden!
***
More fuel to the "vaccines are dangerous" fire! In Sweden, there are reportedly over 350 cases of side effects from the Pandemrix swine flu shot. I previously reported on there being at least four (4) deaths (now five deaths) in the connection with the vaccine in the country as well.
The ingredients in Pandemrix and the product package insert may be viewed by clicking this sentence.
You can check out The Flu Case page or go to the original source news SvD page in Swedish or translated into English via Google Translate. The statements of Johan Carlsson, Director General at The Swedish Institute for Infectious Disease Control and others also discuss these flu deaths and the causes.
Today, Svenska Dagbladet reports that over 350 cases of side effects from the Pandemrix "swine flu" shot, has been recorded so far. It has also become clear that this shot contains the most deadly mix of substances of all the known vaccines manufactured against the so called "swine flu" H1N1 influenza. The official number of deaths from the "swine flu" vaccine is now five. And that is only those who have strong immediate reactons, the long term effects are usually never even investigated. If you would die from the shot two weeks after you took it, your death would not be considered to have anything to do with the vaccination. Severe health problems years after will of course be very hard to link to the poisonous injection. Even if these five official cases died within days, the official story is of course as expected: "none of these deaths has been confirmed to be linked to the vaccine".

DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano Opens New National Cybersecurity and Communications Integration Center
Release Date: October 30, 2009
For Immediate Release
Office of the Press Secretary
Contact: 202-282-8010
Arlington, Va. — Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Janet Napolitano today opened the new National Cybersecurity and Communications Integration Center (NCCIC) — a 24-hour, DHS-led coordinated watch and warning center that will improve national efforts to address threats and incidents affecting the nation's critical information technology and cyber infrastructure.
"Securing America's cyber infrastructure requires a coordinated and flexible system to detect threats and communicate protective measures to our federal, state, local, and private sector partners and the public," said Secretary Napolitano. "Consolidating our cyber and communications operations centers within the NCCIC will enhance our ability to effectively mitigate risks and respond to threats."
The new, state-of-the-art facility reflects the shared priority of President Obama and Secretary Napolitano to bolster information sharing and incident response in order to protect and secure the nation's cyber networks and infrastructure.
The NCCIC provides an integrated incident response facility to mitigate risks that could disrupt or degrade critical information technology functions and services, while allowing for flexibility in handling traditional voice and more modern data networks.
The new unified operations center combines two of DHS' operational organizations: the U.S. Computer Emergency Readiness Team (US-CERT), which leads a public-private partnership to protect and defend the nation's cyber infrastructure; and the National Coordinating Center for Telecommunications (NCC), the operational arm of the National Communications System.
In addition, the NCCIC will integrate the efforts of the National Cybersecurity Center (NCSC), which coordinates operations among the six largest federal cyber centers; the DHS Office of Intelligence and Analysis and private sector partners.
The NCCIC was created at the recommendation of the National Security Telecommunications Advisory Committee, the Government Accountability Office and a joint industry-government working group, which together emphasized the need for collocation, integration, and interoperability among existing cyber and communications incident response mechanisms.
Today's ribbon-cutting ceremony marked the culmination of National Cybersecurity Awareness Month—highlighting the shared responsibility among all individuals, the private sector and state, local and federal partners to counter the threat of cyber attacks.

High Fructose Corn Syrup Reportedly Increases High Blood Pressure Risk (So Why Can't I Buy Mexican Coca-Colas® with Sugar in My Neighborhood?)
A recent study supports this position and says that HFCS increases the risk of high blood pressure. Since HFCS' introduction and increased usage, obesity rates have also increased. You also don't want HFCS, because it may contain mercury! From the Herald Scotland:
High fructose corn syrup (HFCS) is abundant in many types of foods and beverages, including fizzy drinks, biscuits, ketchup and bread, and was originally viewed as a “healthy” method of sweetening...
Although healthy amounts of fructose exist naturally in fruit, excessive amounts of the sugar may be harmful. Studies have already shown that large quantities of fructose cause the liver to pump fats into the bloodstream that may damage arteries...
Since it was first developed in the United States in the 1970s, HFCS has widely replaced sugar as a result of the vast corn subsidies offered to farmers and the high price of sugar tariffs and quotas.
HFCS is now preferred over cane sugar among the vast majority of American food and drink manufacturers thanks to its low production costs. Coca Cola and Pepsi switched to sweetening their products with the substance in 1984, but continue to use sugar in other nations. Four main companies in the US control 85% of the HFCS market...
Dr Diana Jalal, from the University of Colorado, and colleagues wrote in their paper: “These results indicate that high fructose intake in the form of added sugars is significantly and independently associated with higher blood pressure levels in the US adult population with no previous history of hypertension.”
One of my first ventures into news research and gathering was around 1985 when I was 11 years old and when Coca-Cola abandoned its original formula for new Coke. I remember watching all the live television news reports on Nightline about this corporate decision to abandon the popular cola formula. When Coca-Cola buckled and started the Coca-Cola Classic product line, it stated the cola contained the original Coca-Cola formula. However, this may not have been true.
My Granny never liked Coca-Cola Classic® at all! She said that it tasted funny and kept drinking new Coke (or Coke II) until it was no longer available. I did not know why until I realized that Coca-Cola had replaced the sugar with high fructose corn syrup. Being a country woman, my Granny could taste the difference that my youthful self could not perceive. I did not understand what she meant until I tried a Mexican Coca-Cola that has regular syrup and no HFCS.
These Cokes are AMAZING and should be sold in America at every stop from sea to shining sea! However, non-HFCS Cokes are very hard to find unless it is around Passover or you live in a southern border zone! Actually, try finding any non-HFCS soda in your grocery store. I dare you! I used to be able to buy sugar-only, non-HFCS Coca-Colas by the case in Venice, California as late as July, 2009, but I believe these products became a casualty to the cola wars and bottling rights, because they are no longer available.
I even wrote Coca-Cola and I may decide to share Coca-Cola's response that it is not a corporate decision to use sugar or HFCS, because the local bottling companies make this decision.

Wisconsin Judge Orders Beef Rancher to Register Premises Under State's Livestock Premises Registration Law
The conspiracy theories say that the premises registration law will be a way for the government to track, trace and database everyone's land and farms for later corrupt uses or takings. The official page says that these theories are unfounded. Here is the USDA's official FAQ Answers page on premises registration and animal identification, which you can read by clicking this sentence. According to the USDA, premises registration is voluntary under the federal law!
However, in the case at hand, a Wisconsin judge has ordered a beef rancher to register his premises under the State's premises registration law.
Cumberland cattle rancher Patrick Monchilovich, 39, faced trial Oct. 21 in Balsam Lake for not registering his premises as required by the state's livestock premises registration law...
[The judge] ordered Monchilovich to pay $389.50 within 60 days.
About 25 farmers and others showed up in the courtroom to support Monchilovich and his wife, Melissa...
"They're taking away freedoms," Monchilovich told The Country Today after the hearing was adjourned...
District Attorney Dan Steffen filed a complaint against Monchilovich on Feb. 25. Monchilovich entered a not guilty plea in March, arguing that the costs incurred by farmers far outweigh the rewards of premises ID and the National Animal Identification System...
The Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection in 2003 became the first agricultural agency in the U.S. to implement mandatory livestock premises registration.
Anyone who keeps livestock must register that location with the state.
Although the USDA says that the federal registration process is voluntary, it is obvious from this case that when a State adopts the National Animal Identification System, the process becomes mandatory and enforceable under State law.
