Hinde Capital's Ben Davies On The Gold Market

From ZeroHedge, by Tyler Durden on 07/17/2010 


Zero Hedge recently posted several insightful pieces from Hinde Capital, among which the fund's presentation on the ECB's role as the European Commission's whore, and more recently, its presentation on Gold as the "currency of first resort" (recreated below). Last week, fund manager Ben Davies, who previously ran trading for RBS Greenwich Capital in London where he managed a macro portfolio, gave a must hear interview to King World News, in which Ben covers various in depth topics on the gold market and shares his views on "unimaginable price possibilities for the final culmination of the gold bull." Among the things covered are the Andrew Maguire whitsleblower case, David Einhorn's transition from paper to physical gold storage (he notes the storage and indemnification risk), on whether the US government actually owns the hold it represents to holding (noting the demonstrative busting of the very unimpressive Russian spy ring), Russian gold reserve accumulation, where he detours into noting that while gold was 25% of Russian reserve holdings in 2000, it has since plunged to just 5% even as the country has been hoarding gold indicative of the massive currency creation across the world - as currency reserves have grown globally by $7.5 trillion. Ben touches upon the recently popularized concept by Jim Rickards, about an alternative currency basket (aka a new China-Russia-Germany axis) backed by actual physical resources (a modified version of the much dreaded gold standard): "there will be a standardization, a basket of currencies somewhere in the world, that will then become a competing reserve currency very quickly overnight." Most relevantly, Davies answers what he thinks the fair price of gold is: "between $10,000 and $15,000."

He continues: "If you took all the global monetary bases, and I take the G-20 in that case, we currently have a currency that is only backed by gold at 0.26%, and if you look back on a historical precedent, back in the '40-'60's, banks typically have a backing of 40%. In the 1980's that backing got back to 120-140%." This indeed shows that in the 1980s gold was overvalued, at least from an M1 standpoint. The same can not be said about our current mad money printing period.

So what does Ben think the FV of gold is? "If I said gold is to be at 40% just in terms of US encumberment, you can argue for a case of $70-80 trillion's worth of dollars, then we would have a price of $36,000. And if were to halve that, we would have a price of between $10-15,000."

How would the repricing mechanism occur? "If we were not to get a standardization before, I believe like all bull markets, there would be a mania point. There is an eligibility for gold, and it is being considered as money. Gold has really been considered a barbaric relic - I was ridiculed on the floor in 2003, 2004 for even trading gold. When people like Faber asked the question how many actually hold gold, only 2-3% put their hands up. If we see more QE2, if we see more purchases of assets [by the Fed], it would horrendously denigrate the balance sheet of the Fed, which is already not worth the paper it is sitting on, I think in that situation gold is going to be considerably higher." 

Much more in the full interview.

Dengue Fever Outbreak Leads Back to CIA & Army Experiments

by Hank P. Albarelli Jr.*, Zoe Martell*

VoltaireNetwork 17 JULY 2010

The recent outbreak of dengue fever is being portrayed by the media as a fortuitous reemergence of the disease in Florida and elsewhere in the United States after 75 years. Yet Hank Albarelli’s probe reveals that the US Army and CIA have been experimenting with dengue fever for years with the aim of weaponizing insects to be released against unwitting populations, as was previously done in Florida and elsewhere. Moreoever, Albarelli draws attention to the eerie similarity between dengue fever symptoms and those linked to the toxic emanations in the Gulf of Mexico and warns of the looming disaster that could unfold from the overlap.

With little fanfare on July 13, Florida officials released the findings of a Centers for Disease Control (CDC) study conducted recently in the Key West area revealing that about 10 percent, or 1,000 people, of the coastal town’s population are infected with the dengue fever virus.


While the July 13 release made little mention of it, the CDC study was provoked by an earlier 2009 report that a woman in New York State, who had returned from a Florida Keyes visit, had contracted dengue fever. Within a few weeks of this initial report, two additional cases were discovered in people who had returned from Key West. Over the next 3 months of 2009 an additional 26 cases were identified, all tied to visits to the town.


Because of these reported cases, the Florida Keys Mosquito Control District conducted greatly increased aerial spraying to control mosquitoes. Following the spraying a small amount of other cases were reported, including that of a 41-year old Key West man who found blood in his urine and had severely aching joints. Following these additional reports, the CDC launched its study of antibodies in Key West residents and found that 5 percent of the town’s residents have been exposed to the dengue virus. Said CDC dengue expert, Dr. Christopher J. Gregory, “The best estimate from the survey is that about 5 percent of [residents] was infected in 2009 with dengue.” Gregory also stated, “We have known for a while it is a possible risk, but this outbreak shows it is more than possible: It is something that did happen and could happen again.”


Despite the low-key nature of the Florida release, the Homeland Security Administration immediately issued a “terror alert” concerning the findings, and Monroe County, within which Key West is located, also issued its own Health Advisory warning “effective immediately.”


Said Bob Eadie of the Monroe County Health Department, “Dengue is rare in Florida, but not unknown. It’s just one of several mosquito-borne illnesses monitored by the department and why we continually remind the public to take precautions against bites.” Eadie added, “Many people may be infected and not develop any symptoms. Our department and the CDC will have to do some detective work after interviewing and drawing blood from residents who appear to be perfectly fine but may have the virus.”


Dengue fever is a virus-based disease spread by the bites of mosquitoes. It can be caused by any one of four separate but related viruses carried by infected mosquitoes, most commonly the mosquito Aedes aegypti, found in tropic and subtropic areas. It is commonly found in Southeast Asia, South and Central America, Indonesia, and Sub-Saharan Africa. Over the past several decades it has been consistently reported that dengue fever has been eradicated in North America. Dengue hemorrhagic fever is a far more severe form of the dengue virus. If untreated it can be fatal. The chief symptoms of dengue fever are a high fever, severe headache, strong pain behind the eyes, joint, muscle and bone pain, easy bruising, rash, and mild bleeding from the nose and gums. There is no cure or vaccine for dengue fever. One can only treat the symptoms in such ways as getting plenty of rest, drink plenty of water, take pain relievers with acetaminophen, and promptly consult a skilled physician.


Hidden History of Dengue


It appears highly unlikely that any “detective work” performed by the CDC and Florida health officials will unearth any evidence of dengue fever being imported into Florida, but the evidence certainly exists. Prior to the recent Key West findings and still today, the CDC has consistently reported that there have been no outbreaks of dengue fever in Florida since 1934, and none in the continental U.S. since 1946. Remarkably, this report is incorrect.


Unknown to most Americans is that dengue fever has been the intense focus of U.S. army and CIA biological warfare researchers for over fifty years. As early as the 1950s, the army’s Fort Detrick in partnership with the CIA launched a multi-million dollar research program under which dengue fever and several addition exotic diseases were studied for use in offensive biological warfare attacks. Indeed, as several CIA documents, as well as the findings of a 1975 Congressional committee reveal that 3 sites in Florida, Key West, Panama City, and Avon Park, as well as 2 other locations in central Florida, were used for experiments with mosquito borne dengue fever and other biological substances.




Aedes-aegypti mosquito
The experiments in Avon Park, about 170 miles from Miami, were covertly conducted in a low-income African American neighborhood that contained several newly constructed public housing projects. CIA documents related to Project MK/NAOMI clearly indicate that the mosquitoes used in Avon Park were the Aedes aegypti type. Interestingly, at the same time experiments were conducted in Florida there were at least two cases of dengue fever reported among civilian researchers at Fort Detrick in Maryland. Avon Park residents still living in the area say that the experiments resulted in “at least 6 or 7 deaths". One elderly resident told this journalist, “Nobody knew about what had gone on here for years, maybe over 20 years, but in looking back it explained why a bunch of healthy people got sick quick and died at the time of those experiments.”


A 1978 Pentagon publication, entitled Biological Warfare: Secret Testing & Volunteers, reveals that the Army’s Chemical Corps and Special Operations and Projects Divisions at Fort Detrick conducted “tests” similar to the Avon Park experiments in Key West, but the bulk of the documentation concerning this highly classified and covert work is still held by the Pentagon as “secret.” One former Fort Detrick researcher says that the army “performed a number of experiments in the area of the Keys” but that “not all concerned dengue virus.”


In the spring and summer of 1981, Cuba experienced a severe hemorrhagic dengue fever epidemic. Between May and October 1981, the island nation had 158 dengue-related deaths with about 75,000 reported infection cases. Prior to this outbreak, Cuba had reported only a very small number of cases in 1944 and 1977. At the same time as the 1981 outbreak, covert biological warfare attacks on Cuba’s residents and crops were believed to have been conducted against the island by CIA contractors and military airplane flyovers. Particularly harmful to the nation was a severe outbreak of swine flu that Fidel Castro attributed to the CIA.




Anti-dengue fumigation in Nicaragua.
In 1985 and 1986, authorities in Nicaragua accused the CIA of creating a massive outbreak of dengue fever that infected thousands in that country. CIA officials denied any involvement, but army researchers admitted that intensive work with arthropod vectors for offensive biowarfare objectives had been conducted at Fort Detrick in the early 1980s, having first started in the early 1950s. Fort Detrick researchers reported that huge colonies of mosquitoes infected with not only dengue virus but also yellow fever were maintained at the Frederick, Maryland installation, as well as hordes of flies carrying cholera and anthrax, and thousands of ticks filled with Colorado fever and relapsing fever.


A review of declassified Army Chemical Corps documents reveal that the army may have also been engaged in dengue fever research as early as the late 1940s. Several redacted Camp Detrick and Edgewood Arsenal reports indicate that experiments were conducted on state and federal prisoners who were unwittingly exposed to dengue fever, as well as other viruses, some possibly lethal. Freedom of Information requests filed months ago for details on these early experiments remain unanswered.


Dengue Fever & BP Spill Complications


The timing of this outbreak of Dengue fever presents two additional problems; the symptoms of Dengue fever are very similar to that of exposures to chemicals such as those contained in crude oil and the dispersants currently being used in the contaminated areas of the Gulf of Mexico, potentially making it difficult to diagnose the source of a sufferer’s symptoms. Worse yet, there looms the possibility that Corexit and other toxins present in the Gulf area may weaken the immune system, thus setting the stage for more severe forms of the disease in people who are, or have previously been, exposed to the virus.


It is still unclear to what degree residents of the Gulf area, at large, have been or will be exposed to such chemicals in the long term, but there is mounting evidence that fishermen, cleanup workers, and others who spend significant time in contact with the Gulf waters are beginning to display symptoms consistent with chemically induced neurotoxicity. If Dengue fever also spreads within the Gulf community, affecting a significant number of people, it will be increasingly difficult to differentiate the cause of symptoms in those who develop them; even in persons who test positive for Dengue exposure, the additional possibility remains that chemical toxicity is present as well.


The presentation of Dengue fever varies considerably from case to case. Numerous medical studies have identified asymptomatic infections, or infections that consist of only mild flu-like symptoms that would likely not result in the sufferer seeking medical attention.


When more troubling symptoms are present, they vary considerably in severity. According to the CDC, milder cases of Dengue fever are identified by a high fever accompanied by at least two of the following symptoms: severe headache, severe eye pain (behind eyes), joint pain, muscle and/or bone pain, rash, a mild bleeding manifestation such as bleeding gums, nose bleeds, or easy bruising, and low white cell count. In more severe cases, Dengue can cause severe abdominal pain or persistent vomiting, red blotches or patches on the skin, more severe bleeding of nose or gums, vomiting of blood, black tarry excrement (indicative of the presence of blood in the stool,) drowsiness, irritability, cold or clammy skin, pallor, and difficulty breathing. The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene has reported cases of Dengue fever that resulted in neurological manifestations, as well.


Dengue fever can also cause a much more serious, hemorrhagic form of the disease, the presentation of which the CDC describes as follows: “[A] fever that lasts from 2 to 7 days, with general signs and symptoms consistent with dengue fever. When the fever declines, warning signs may develop. This marks the beginning of a 24 to 48 hour period when the smallest blood vessels (capillaries) become excessively permeable (“leaky”), allowing the fluid component to escape from the blood vessels into the peritoneum (causing ascites) and pleural cavity (leading to pleural effusions). This may lead to failure of the circulatory system and shock, and possibly death without prompt, appropriate treatment. In addition, the patient with DHF has a low platelet count and hemorrhagic manifestations, tendency to bruise easily or have other types of skin hemorrhages, bleeding nose or gums, and possibly internal bleeding.”


As if this were not troubling enough, let us compare the above symptom picture to the symptoms associated with exposure to the dispersants Corexit 9500 and Corexit 9527. The exact risks of exposure to these chemicals have yet to be determined; in fact, the manufacturers’ material safety data sheet (MSDS) for Corexit 9500 states: “No toxicity studies have been conducted on this product.” The MSDS further states that one should not come in contact with the product or breathe its vapors, and that adequate protective skin protection and breathing apparatuses should be worn when handling or working with the compound. Any hints of safe usage within the MSDS on these chemicals should be viewed from the following perspective: the MSDS data assumes limited exposure (for example, while applying the chemical) and the use of adequate protective gear. These statistics do not apply, therefore, to unprotected people who may be subject to long term, consistent exposure.


Many toxicologists have raised grave concerns, however, about the risks that these dispersants may pose to residents of the Gulf of Mexico area. Dr. Susan Shaw, a marine toxicologist, talked about her recent experience with shrimpers who had been working in the Gulf waters. In an interview on CNN, she addressed the situation of a shrimper who had thrown his net into water, causing the water to splash onto his unprotected skin. She reported that he developed a “headache that lasted 3 weeks, heart palpitations, muscle spasms, bleeding from the rectum…” and continued, “and that’s what this Corexit does, it ruptures red blood cells, causes internal bleeding, and liver and kidney damage. …” She asserts that the combination of oil from the well, combined with Corexit dispersant, increases the toxicity of both substances. In combination, she believes that they are skin permeable, and that they aerosolize to produce a breathing hazard as well. The toxins can enter the body through the respiratory tract, but are unlikely to remain localized in the lungs, instead spreading throughout one’s entire body system.


Numerous reports have come in from both residents of the Gulf area and journalists visiting the area that many people who are exposed to the water are beginning to experience health problems. Among the most commonly reported symptoms are burning eyes, skin rashes, lightheadedness, dizziness, difficulty breathing, transient numbness and shooting pains, persistent coughing, sore throats, muscle and bone aches, weakness, and severe fatigue. More troubling reports, such as those of the shrimpers mentioned above, have included bleeding from the nose and from the rectum, as well as permanent numbness in extremities, and complete loss of the sense of smell. It is generally accepted in the medical literature that although the initial, acute presentation of toxic exposure is generally the most severe, symptoms may linger indefinitely or even result in permanent damage to the body.


Herein lies the dilemma: If a Gulf resident becomes ill, to what do we attribute his or her symptoms? In addition to the dispersants themselves, Gulf residents are potentially suffering from exposure to benzene, and other toxic chemicals that are naturally present in crude oil, as well as several potentially toxic gases being released from the well. In combination with the dispersant, the exact toxicity risk of these chemicals remains unknown.


Add now, to the picture, the risk of having contracted Dengue fever, and the puzzle becomes more difficult to piece together. The CDC’s 2009 survey contained samples from only 240 households, and determined that about 5% of the residents had antibodies to the Dengue virus, indicating either current infection or a prior exposure. This relatively small sample may not be indicative of the Florida population as a whole, and may not be a valid indicator of the overall number of exposed people in the surrounding areas.


The medical literature indicates that Dengue virus, like many other viruses, may remain in the body in a latent form; during latency, the virus is unlikely to cause symptoms. A second infection with Dengue, however, can lead to a much more severe presentation of the disease, and a greater likelihood of it progressing to its hemorrhagic (and potentially fatal) form. Likewise, the literature indicates that a severe assault to the immune system presents a risk of virus reactivation and resultant disease.


Dr. Shaw’s assessment of the dangers of Corexit dispersant, particularly in combination with the other contaminants resulting from the damaged BP oil well, includes the potential for severe damage to the immune system. Such immune system suppression or damage, it seems, could then reactivate Dengue fever in residents who carry the latent virus, perhaps even resulting in a more severe form of the disease’s presentation.


Assuming the above quoted assessments of the current situation in Florida are accurate, the presence of the Dengue virus in Florida at this time makes for a nightmarish picture. Not only is there a tremendous symptom overlap between Dengue virus and toxin exposure, up to and including the potential for a hemorrhagic presentation of both, but there looms on the horizon a new and frightening possibility: The combined presence of this disease and a toxic environment might have the potential to combine, making an already tragic situation incrementally worse.

Real Unemployment Rate 28.6 Percent

Raghavan Mayur, president at TechnoMetrica Market Intelligence, follows unemployment data closely. So, when his survey for May revealed that 28% of the 1,000-odd households surveyed reported that at least one member was looking for a full-time job, he was flummoxed.


“Our numbers are always very accurate, so I was surprised at the discrepancy with the government’s numbers,” says Mayur, whose firm owns the TIPP polling unit, a polling partner for Investors Business Daily and Christian Science Monitor. After all, the headline number shows the U.S. unemployment rate today is 9.5%, with a total of 14.6 million jobless people.


However, Mayur’s polls continued to find much worse figures. The June poll turned up 27.8% of households with at least one member who’s unemployed and looking for a job, while the latest poll conducted in the second week of July showed 28.6% in that situation. That translates to an unemployment rate of over 22%, says Mayur, who has started questioning the accuracy of the Labor Department’s jobless numbers.

Slaying the Debt Spider

By Christopher Bollyn  17.07.2010


"There are two ways to conquer and enslave a nation. One is by the sword. The other is by debt." 
- U.S. President John Adams 

"If the American people only understood the rank injustice of our money and banking system, there would be a revolution before morning." 
- U.S. President Andrew Jackson, 1829 

"The few who understand the system will either be so interested in its profits or so dependent upon its favors that there will be no opposition from that class while, on the other hand, the great body of people, mentally incapable of comprehending…will bear its burdens without complaint." 
- The Rothschild brothers of London writing to associates in New York, 1863 

"There is a much larger group behind these 9/11 attacks which is the international banking cartel which controls trillions of dollars and which has an interest in controlling countries in the Middle East which are not under their control." 
- Professor Steven E. Jones on KUER (Salt Lake City's NPR affiliate), September 5, 2006 

I have recently been listed in something called the Encyclopedia of American Loons, which is being put together (in alphabetical order) by Ryan Nathaniel Lake, a 33-year-old post-graduate student of philosophy at the University of Miami. Lake, originally from Muskegon, Michigan, lives in Miami Beach and teaches on the virtual college website of Miami Dade College. 


The Pacific Loon is a strong swimmer 

By definition, a loon is one of the fish-eating, diving birds of the genus Gavia of northern regions, but "loon" is also used informally to mean a person who "is crazy or deranged", which is apparently how Ryan Lake views me. At the bottom of my entry he provides this "diagnosis". 

Diagnosis: Complete loon and master at interpreting the fact that anyone disagrees with him, for whatever reason, as evidence for the truth of his conspiracy theories. Specific impact uncertain, but his views are apparently relatively widespread and must be considered dangerous. 

Dangerous to whom? Exactly to whom are my views dangerous? To the American people who are suffering under a mountain of debt and whose loved ones are made to fight an utterly fraudulent war in Afghanistan and Iraq? My views about what happened on 9-11 are based on documented facts and evidence that are in the public domain. The evidence from 9-11, such as the discovery of super-thermite in the dust of the World Trade Center, is certainly dangerous to the Zionist criminals who carried out the false-flag terror attacks and the Elders of Zion from the House of Rothschild who control them, because it liberates us from their web of deception about what really happened - and why. 


A large amount of super-thermite was found in the dust of the pulverized World Trade Center. This extremely powerful explosive coating was made using nanotechnology and evidently applied to the floor pans of the Twin Towers. This scientific evidence exposes the government and media explanation of 9-11 as nothing but a pack of lies. Who profits from America's extremely costly wars in the Middle East? Ask the Rothschild Debt Spider. 

Although he is clearly hostile to my thesis, Lake does a fair job summing it up: 

9-11 was the product of a Zionist conspiracy (in particular organized by the Rothschild family) – the Zionist conspiracy that controls the US government and media. They have also infiltrated the Senate, as shown by Bollyn’s razor-sharp and fearless investigations, e.g. “Arlen Specter - The Elder of Zion in the U.S. Senate”. Henry Kissinger is at the top of the conspiracy, and “still a key player in the crimocracy as seen by the conspicuous fact that he was sent by the new Obama administration to meet with the leadership of Russia, although the nominal Secretary of State was Hillary Clinton.” I guess you can’t argue with evidence like that. 

SLAYING THE DEBT SPIDER 


The second part of "The Coming American Revolution" will be my next article. It may be titled "Slaying the Spider" because it will deal with identifying the spider which has woven the web of deception and debt in which we find ourselves and our nation(s) trapped. 


The American people are clearly enraged by the Rothschild criminal "banksters" and their corruption of the government and media monopoly. Even the most conservative Encyclopedia Britannica article on the Rothschild family describes it as a criminal enterprise. 

Americans are deeply enraged and the revolutionary zeal is clearly palpable. The U.S. population was against the bail-out of Zionist banksters 1,000 to 1, but public opinion didn't slow down the trillion dollar transfer of wealth to the criminals for one minute. How do we wage a revolution if we don't even know who we are fighting against? We need to know exactly who the enemy is before we can take effective action of any kind. 

Our American republic is in an extreme debt crisis that has been caused by the Rothschild bankers who control the world by controlling the money supply and keeping the governments of the world in deep debt. Ellen Hodgson Brown, the author of an excellent book entitled The Web of Debt, says this about the coming revolution in the chapter "Stepping from Scarcity into Abundance": 

Wars, competition and strife are the inevitable results of this scarcity-driven system. The obvious solution is to eliminate the parasitic banking scheme that is feeding on the world's prosperity. But how? The Witches of Wall Street are not likely to release their vice-like grip without some sort of revolution, and a violent revolution would probably fail, because the world's most feared military machine is already in the hands of the money cartel. Violent revolution would just furnish them with an excuse to test their equipment. 

I agree with Ellen Brown, who refers to the familiar Wizard of Oz allegory throughout her most readable work, that it is the Debt Spider that must be vanquished. Our nation(s) and our lives are stuck fast in a very sticky web of debt while our minds are trapped tightly in the controlled-media web of deception. These webs both belong to a spider that remains out of sight. Although we can see those who are caught in the web, we don't see the spider. 

In the allegorical Wizard of Oz, the courageous Lion killed the great spider, who symbolizes the head of the international banking cartel: "With one blow of his heavy paw, all armed with sharp claws, he knocked the spider's head from its body." 

To free ourselves from the ocean of debt that is drowning our nation and killing prosperity we must kill the Debt Spider. How is the Rothschild debt spider to be slain in the real world? 

Hans Schicht, author of "The Death of Banking and Macro Politics", explains how: 

If prime ministers and presidents would only be blessed with the most basic knowledge of the perversity of banking, they would not go onto their knees to the Central Banker and ask His Highness for loans…With a little bit of brains they would expropriate all banking institutions. 

The first banking institution that needs to be nationalized is the Federal Reserve System. To return the control over the supply and value of money to the U.S. government is the only realistic solution to the debt crisis. 

As financial writer John Hoefle wrote: 

This is not an academic question, as the Fed is actively involved in looting the American population for the benefit of giant U.S. and global financial institutions, and the global casino. Few Americans have any idea the extent to which the Fed and its system reach into their pockets on a daily basis, and the extent to which their standard of living has been eroded by the financier-led deindustrialization of the United States. 

MONEYED VULTURES 

Louis T. McFadden, Chairman of the House Banking and Currency Committee filed a Petition for Articles of Impeachment against the Federal Reserve Board in 1934. He told Congress: 

This evil institution has impoverished and ruined the people of these United States, has bankrupted itself, and has practically bankrupted our Government. It has done this through the defects of the law under which it operates, through the maladministration of that law by the Fed, and through the corrupt practices of the moneyed vultures who control it. 

The struggle between the people of the United States and the House of Rothschild is older than the American republic. The Rothschild banking cartel and its desire to control the money supply was actually behind the American Revolution of 1776, the War of 1812, and the Civil War. This same international banking cartel is certainly behind the current debt crisis and the costly wars in the Middle East, which are the root causes of the revolutionary fervor in America today. The coming revolution is not against the U.S. government per se but should be targeted against the specific agent which has corrupted our government. As Ellen Brown says, "What has allowed government to become corrupted today is that it is actually run by the money cartel." 

William Jennings Bryan, the Democratic candidate for the presidency in 1896, won the nomination with his famous "Cross of Gold" speech, in which he aimed his criticism squarely at the international banking cartel. Bryan put the solution in plain English: 

I stand with Jefferson…and tell them, as he did, that the issue of money is a function of the government and that the banks should go out of the governing business. 

BP Paying Off Universities, Gulf Scientists To Silence Them

From Connecting the Dots in the New World Order 


For the last few weeks, BP has been offering signing bonuses and lucrative pay to prominent scientists from public universities around the Gulf Coast to aid its defense against spill litigation.

BP PLC attempted to hire the entire marine sciences department at one Alabama university, according to scientists involved in discussions with the company’s lawyers. The university declined because of confidentiality restrictions that the company sought on any research.

The Press-Register obtained a copy of a contract offered to scientists by BP. It prohibits the scientists from publishing their research, sharing it with other scientists or speaking about the data that they collect for at least the next three years.'
