President Obama Does
“Wag the Dog” is a euphemism for when a politician in trouble wages a war or does some other diversion to get the heat off his back. President Obama, it appears to me, is doing a “Wag the Mosque” as a smokescreen for a tanking deflation economy during his administration and to help his parties election chances in the November 2010 midterm elections. With only a couple months until the elections, they are in big trouble. Some pundits say the Democrat Party may loose control of both houses of congress.
Why else would President Obama suddenly take the moral high ground and come out in favor of building the Manhattan Muslim mosque so close to the site of the 9/11/2001 World Trade Towers ground zero attack? He knew 70% of New Yorkers are against building the 51 Park Avenue Islamic place of worship at that particular site. It is like rubbing salt in our wounds. Is a “Wag the Dog” war with Iran next?
The libertarian in me applauds liberty, freedom of religion, upholding zoning laws and the free market in any form. The realist in me knows this a a big diversionary tactic. President Obama recently actually had the nerve to bash the state of Arizona over their newly passed Mexican border immigration law. A law closely matching Federal guidelines. The explosion in media coverage of both sides of this illegal alien issue was a wonder to behold. Isn’t it the federal governments job to protect our borders? The Feds weren’t doing the job. Arizona had to do act. That makes the second “wag” in two months.
Do see “Wag the Dog” (1997), directed by Barry Levinson. Staring Dustin Hoffman, Robert De Niro and Anne Heche. Funny. Priceless!
On Sunday 8/22/2010, MEET THE PRESS on CNBC, with David Gregory hosting, spent one half of the program on the mosque issue and on Iraq and Iran. Meet The Press and the President should be more concerned about rising unemployment, the tight money crisis, real estate problems and a deflation economy and the coming Greater Depression.
Robert Prechter, President of Elliott Wave International, has written about a new study of socionomics in his book, “The Wave Principle of Human Social Behavior and the New Science of Socionomics” (1999). In the book he predicted a negative social mood change era evidenced by fear, xenophobia, pessimism, conservatism, thrift, savings and a general retrenchment. A waning instead of a waxing. He is also on record saying the Greater Depression started in 2000 with the dot com bust and may last into 2016. He also predicts a 90% drop in most asset prices and 30% plus unemployment rate. Finally, hes says that world war three started 09/11/2001.
Xenophobia is the fear and loathing of strangers. Xenophobic trends increase as economies regress into deflation and peoples attitude turns sour. In deflationary downturns, people in general become afraid and therefore hateful of strangers. People are rabidly against the mosque. A recent poll asked the question: Is it appropriate to erect a Mosque and Islamic Community Center close to the 9/11 site? 37% said “yes”, 62% said “no.”
In addition to xenophobia, during a waning mood swing society does not start new businesses, loan money or invest. The retrenchment we are having is textbook Robert Prechter Socionomics. According to him, socionomics is a marriage of sociology and economics that sees societal mood swings from positive to negative and back again as the driving force behind booms and a deflation economy. Also, the likelihood of war increases in the downswings like we are having now.
Now, we get a deflation economy leading up to the Greater Depression. Will the banksters foreclose on everything and get richer? Probably. Smaller government due to reduced tax revenues will be a good thing. Mark my words! Unless a private money backed by gold catches on we are doomed to a repeat driving gold to $5,000 per ounce in the distant future. Money with no backing in Germany after WWI lead to hyperinflation helping Hitler hustle everyone. You don’t want to elect the next antichrist besides the “anointed one” we have in office now, do you? Only gold is not also a debt instrument. Only gold is honest.
New York City has a long history of intolerance. First called New Amsterdam by its Dutch founders. Back then the city’s first leaders delayed letting the early Jewish immigrants build their own church until 1730. Waves of Irish, Italian and other nationalities were greeted with similar initial intolerance. The last ones onshore got the worst jobs with the lowest pay.
The 70% coordinated collective citizen reaction against the mosque at this spot at this time is further socionomic proof we are indeed heading into the Greater Depression. It will be three times larger and longer than the depression in the 1930′s due to the excess government, excess waste, excess war and excesses in general. The Elliott Wave structure is also predicting a downturn, according to Robert Prechter. You can get more information on Elliott Wave, socionomics, Robert Prechter and deflation at my website.
So, President Obama took the high road coming out for the mosque in theory. What a hornets nest he stirred up. Of course, he is right. Not allowing it would be against the law and a violation of the constitution. Denying the mosque would only engender a huge unproductive wasteful loosing lawsuit. The courts would have to rule on the side of religious freedom.
Unfortunately, he is also on a program of weakening the constitution by appointing left leaning Supreme Court Judges and beating up on banks and business. Remarkably, only 10% of his administration have any business experience. Obamas’ policies are making business uncertain and cautious. Business is frozen up because of all the bank bailouts, auto company bailouts, ObamaCare costs and financial reforms and regulations.
Obama knows he is only a one term president. That is why he wants the U.S. to get wrapped up around the axle. So that his socialistic and many wealth redistribution job killing aspirations can be foisted upon us. There is no better way than this to help the onslaught of a deflation economy. It will cause a worse depression in the long run. Socialism is economic death to business. The lifeblood of an economy is sucked out. Business people just give up trying.
President Franklin Delano Roosevelt made up government jobs and delayed recovery from the 1930′s depression with all his hair-brained socialist make work programs. It was FDR’s leftist ideas that took us to where we are today. He even outlawed gold ownership.
Now the socialism he started is getting top heavy and is starting to crash. Better to lower taxes this time and let business create jobs that will last. Not jobs that disappear when the project is finished like FDR did. FDR started us down this road to perdition. President Obama will be happy to know that he is only the second most destructive American political figure – after FDR.
The peoples mood is downright nasty these days. Stocks are topping out. Israel is reporting Iran will have a working nuclear bomb in 9 months. A “Wag the Dog” war with Iran is next. Another smokescreen for the power elite control freaks with the help of the Federal Reserve to finalize their one-world-government to take our FREEDOMS forever.
I’ll bet my bottom dollar Barack Hussein Obama is for a one-world-government. Say hello to Big Brother! This is not what our freedom favoring founding fathers had in mind. This is TYRANNY!
This president is bent on destroying America’s Constitution and it’s citizens rights. Now he’s made CO2 a greenhouse gas? You had better stop breathing it out then. His “Cap and Trade” will be the final fatal straw breaking businesses back.
Let us find another place for the mosque and not open up old wounds. I think they would if President Barack Hussein Obama would stop playing “Wag the Mosque.”

Social Anxiety Disorder Treatment – A Natural Cure
Are you becoming or have you always been a homebody? Do you stray away from social situations where you may meet new people? Do you feel as though people are looking at you or judging you when out in public? Does the prospect of asking someone out or going on a date terrify you?
These are just a small sample of symptoms, a person with social anxiety disorder may experience. If so, you may need to seek help in the area of social anxiety disorder treatment.
Social anxiety is the fear of social situations and the interaction with other people that can automatically bring on feelings of self-consciousness, judgment, evaluation, and criticism. Put another way, social anxiety is the fear and anxiety of being judged and evaluated negatively by other people, leading to feelings of inadequacy, embarrassment, humiliation, and depression. If a person usually becomes anxious in social situations, but seems fine when they are alone, then “social anxiety” may be the problem.
Rated as the third largest psychological disorder in the United States, social anxiety disorder or social phobia, is more common an issue for many people than previously known. No one should feel inadequate or alone if suffering from this condition, as millions of people across the world face this traumatic problem everyday of their lives. Someone may face one, some or all of the common conditions associated with social phobia or from a more generalized social phobia. With the right social anxiety disorder treatment these phobias can be overcome.
If searching for a natural cure, Panic Away and the Panic Away One Move Technique would be your solution. Before spending money on expensive medications, various books or even psychiatrist appointments, panic away is a must look option.
In further explanation and understanding of social anxiety the following should be understood. A specific social phobia would be the fear of speaking in front of groups, whereas generalized social anxiety indicates that the person is anxious, nervous, and uncomfortable in almost all (or the majority of) social situations.
Social Anxiety Disorder Symptoms:
* Meeting new people
* Fear of criticism or being teased
* Drawing attention; being center of attention
* Feeling like you are being watched while doing something or fearing you may be watched
* Intimated by people of authority
* Staying away from social situations with strangers
* Being reserved at parties and fearing starting small talk with others
* Performing on stage
* Public speaking
* Being called on in class
* Going on a date
These are some of the more common symptoms associated with social anxiety disorder, but not a complete list.
What you may feel physically when facing social anxiety?
* Racing heart
* Intense feelings of fear
* Dry throat and mouth
* Red or flush face
* Difficulty swallowing
* Muscle stiffness or twitching
* Trembling
* Overwhelming, constant feeling of anxiety
People with social anxiety disorder know that their anxiety is irrational and does not make “head” sense. Nevertheless, “knowing” something is never the same as “believing” and “feeling” something. Thus, in people with social anxiety, thoughts and feelings of anxiety persist and show no signs of going away.
There are treatments available for social anxiety, as well as the other anxiety problems. To read or hear that someone with social phobia is just going to “learn to live with it”, is completely ridiculous. No one has to live with this condition, there is help available.
A natural program such as panic away, teaches you how to break the fear of the anxiety cycle, which then may lead to frequent panic attacks. The technique does this by teaching you to reverse your mental state, from the irrational to the rational part of the brain. The irrational part takes over upon the uprising of an anxiety causing situation. You can switch your brain back to the rational side, preventing the attack from happening and controlling your anxiety.
Getting over social anxiety disorder is not an easy task; yet many thousands have already done it. While youre in the middle of the problem, it feels as though youll never ever get better. Life is just one stomach turning anxiety problem after another. This can be stopped, controlled, and reduced in a relatively short period of time. You must find an established, reputable and continually supportive program that can help your social phobia. Panic Away is just that program.
The most important elements in conquering social phobia are:
1. An understanding and awareness of the problem.
2. A commitment to carry through the issues even when it seems difficult.
3. Practice, practice, practice to get that information deep down into your brain so that it becomes automatic.
4. Participation in supportive, understanding groups in which they help you work on problems that cause you anxiety in the real world.
5. Being with others that have similar phobias, but have used specific strategies to conquer there anxiety causing situations.
You may have a need to take social anxiety disorder medication, but before you do consider a more natural remedy such as Panic Away.
Social Anxiety Disorder Medication
Medication is sometimes used to relieve the symptoms of social anxiety, but its not a cure for social anxiety disorder or social phobia. If you stop taking medication, your symptoms will probably return full force. Medication is considered most helpful when used in addition to therapy and other self-help techniques that address the root cause of social anxiety disorder.
Types of medication used to treat social anxiety disorder (social phobia):
* Beta blockers Beta blockers are used for relieving performance anxiety. They work by blocking the flow of adrenaline that occurs when youre anxious. While beta blockers dont affect the emotional symptoms of anxiety, they can control physical symptoms such as shaking hands or voice, sweating, and rapid heartbeat.
* Antidepressants Antidepressants can be helpful when social anxiety disorder is severe and debilitating. Three specific antidepressantsPaxil treatment, Effexor, and Zolofthave been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of social phobia.
* Benzodiazepines Benzodiazepines are fast-acting anti-anxiety medications. However, they are sedating and addictive, so they are typically prescribed only when other medications for social phobia have not worked.
The bottom line is this. If youve tried every social anxiety disorder treatment around or are just starting to look for solutions, you need a proven method. I understand that not every option works for every person, but panic away has helped over 60,000 people and can help you too.
Panic Away is an effective, proven, depression treatment. Stop feeling depressed over your social anxiety which makes you even more reserved and trapped in your own mind. This course is also an alternative panic disorder treatment, using all natural techniques, aiding in the dissolving of your anxieties which lead to recurring panic attacks.
The One Move Technique taught, will also serve as an agoraphobia treatment and generalized anxiety disorder treatment. Stop the endless days of self judgment, negative projective thoughts you perceive others are thinking, and start experiencing the world around you.
Don’t waste another day!

A Victim Of Tmj Needs To Immediately Address The Issue
When this lady wakes up in the morning, she is only allowed to stretch but not yawn. The reason for this is that this lady just came from a surgery which is why actions concerning her mouth should be lessened.
Now, this pretty blonde is pestered by her popping jaws for she has been experiencing this for two years already. It has been embarrassing for her for sometimes; she feels it’s as if everyone hears her popping jaws when she chews. When she talks it doesn’t pop, but when she chews or opens wide, it does.
She is problematic about the cushion displacement of the ball socket joint of the jaw which is the TMJ. In an ordinary jaw, the cushion sits on top of the ball part of the joint and guards the two bones from rubbing.
In one who experiences a popping jaw, the pad, which is similar to a Frisbee in that is thin in the middle with thick edges, has been displaced, usually interiorly, as the result of a ligament that has been stretched.
The pad can be displaced if a person is being elbowed in the jaw, has experienced trauma or a mother holding a baby suddenly rears its head up.
Many times the problem is either dismissed or goes undetected. Displacement is caused not only by a muscle tension headache but also if the muscle goes into spasm and the ligaments pull the pad back stretches intensively.
To be able to correct the problem, the intricate procedure which has been relatively new requires curbing the elastic ligament attached to the posterior of the pad, and then repositioning the existing pad if it has not been damaged.
The measurement of the ligament to be removed is based on the distance of the pad. In some occasions, the pad can be destroyed which is why is has to be originally replaced with a prosthetic pad.
There are a great number of TMJ victims from the age group of 15 to 18 years old. The joint being so close to the ear canal, it then causes ear pain which they said is the start of the problem. A few TMJ victims will be living with this problem which could even go worse.
If the problem on the inflammation of the joint continues, in a matter of three to four years, arthritis can develop. The pain was so intense that it was as if something in her ear was being ripped out.
Pain medication helped her attain good amounts of sleep even though it keeps her totally tired. She already consulted many doctors and had her hopes down so many times.
This caused her depression because she thought she’d never be able to get over the pain which can sometimes cause suicidal tendencies. Some give up on themselves because of the terrible pains that they are faced with.
Nerves on the right side of her head, down into her arm are the things that were brought about by nerve irritation and the same thing goes to the muscle spasms that she has been experiencing. At times, she felt that her entire right side experiences muscle cramp.
Within three months, rehabilitation could take place. During the first two weeks after the surgery, patients are instructed to get plenty of rest. The normal mouth opening is 40 millimeters which the patients are now beginning the process of exercising their jaws.

Job Stress, Health, And Consequences – How Stress-caused Health Problems Can Kill Your Career
They call it Karoshi in Japan: death by overwork. But even in Japan, most people don’t quite die from working too much – they just get sick and suffer. And suffering, year in year out, could be a prescription for career disaster…
We get stressed when we work too much or under bad circumstances, and it’s not news to anyone that such stress can make us sick. But there’s a wrinkle that flies under the radar in the stress and health discussion: Although an excessively stressful career make us sick, but once we get sick, our lower energy levels affect the quality and quantity of the work we can do, and ultimately, our impaired performance can in turn ruin our careers.
Excess stress every day is something that’s unfortunately very common for many individuals. And for all too many, it has already resulted in a variety of health problems, ranging from the merely annoying, embarrassing, and slightly painful, such as cold sores, acne, neck pain, headaches, and hair loss, completely to obesity, heart attacks, and even death.
Sometimes things can get so bad, that Karoshi may seem like a merciful way out. But let’s pinpoint the kinds of health consequences that result from stress that doesn’t quite kill you and on the impact they can have on your career in turn. If the stress is ongoing, and it usually is, you may well end up suffering for years, alive but not so well.
We know that when the body experiences stress, it releases adrenalin and cortisol within our primitive fight-or-flight response. These important hormones help increase the oxygen level in the blood and boost the sugar in the blood – preparing us to either flee or fight.
That reaction might have been useful in an era where fighting or fleeing would have been considered reasonable options. If you are boss is yelling at you, neither bonking him on the kisser nor running away screaming qualifies as appropriate behavior. Instead, there you are, a sitting duck, flooded with stress hormones that have no place to go and serve no purpose except wreak havoc on your well-being.
What havoc? For example, the immune system is suppressed or damaged, which compromises your body’s ability to resist infection. So you’re the first one to catch the office cold and the last to recover from it. And then there are numerous of chronic health conditions are either caused or made worse by stress, including hypertension, high blood sugar, migraine headaches, and heart disease. Some research suggests that stress can even cause cancer – or push the body over that critical hurdle where our immune system is just no longer strong enough to fight it off.
There’s also slightly less obvious conditions, less obvious at least to the outside observer: depression, fibromyalgia, insomnia, chronic fatigue syndrome, and adrenal burnout.
They all have in common that they’ll sap your energy and make it very difficult to get much work done. Come performance review, you’ll have some explaining to do. And if anything, that will make your stress-levels even worse.
Can you see where this is heading? Stress may hurt your body, but it will hurt your career unless you manage to get over it. Ratcheting down your stress threshold is required to be a top priority, because may possibly not only cost you your health but your job as well. And then, what will you do for health insurance?
