SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION MUSEUM O F NATURAL HISTORY UNITED STATES NATIONAL MUSEUM BULLETIN 276 A Revision of the Genus Malacosoma Hlibner in North America (Lepidoptera: Lasiocampidae): Systematics, Biology, Immatures, and Parasites FREDERICK W. STEHR and EDWIN F. COOK SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION PRESS CITY OF WASHINGTON 1968 PUBLICATIONS OF THE UNITED STATES NATIONAL MUSEUM The scientific publications of the United States National Museum include two series. Proceedings of the United States National Museum and United States National Museum Bulletin. In these series are published original articles and monographs dealing with the collections and work of the Museum and setting forth newly acquired facts in the field of anthropology, biology, geology, history, and technology. Copies of each publication are distributed to libraries and scientific organizations and to specialists and others interested in the various subjects. The Proceedings, begun in 1878, are intended for the publication, in separate form, of shorter papers. These are gathered in volumes, octavo in size, with the publication date of each paper recorded in the table of contents of the volume. In the Bulletin series, the first of which was issued in 1875, appear longer, separate publications consisting of monographs (occasionally in several parts) and volumes in which are collected works on related subjects. Bulletins are either octavo or quarto in size, depending on the needs of the presentation. Since 1902, papers relating to the botanical collections of the Museum have been published in the Bulletin series under the heading Contributions from the United States National Herbarium. This work forms number 276 of the Bulletin series. -

DIY Sovereignty and the Popular Right in Australia
DIY Sovereignty and the Popular Right in Australia Judy Lattas Macquarie University [email protected] Abstract The concern of this paper is with the form that ‘right wing’ anti-government protest has taken in Australia in recent years. One tactic that is proving popular amongst those who have suffered setbacks in their hold on property, or in their small business ventures, is to declare their secession from Australia, and to establish an alternative jurisdiction and alternative citizenship. The author describes some of these projects, and links the serious political pursuit of this secessionist move to a movement in the USA called Sovereign Citizenship, which is itself linked to recent acts of anti-government sabotage called ‘paper terrorism’. I want to take up the conference theme of ‘Mobile Boundaries/Rigid Worlds’ in relation to the recent popularity in Australia of creating new countries - on a small scale, of course - in ‘do it yourself’ (DIY) projects involving a declaration of sovereignty and autonomy. Sometimes it is an experiment in citizenship or just for fun, but it is often done in protest. What I have in mind are those people, for example, who have declared their legal secession from Australia and formed their own principalities, like His Royal Highness Prince Leonard of the Hutt River Province Principality in Western Australia. While the story of Prince Leonard is legendary, others who are more contemporary are not well known. Commentators call these people micronationalists, which is a term that was coined in the 1990s to describe the activity that was pioneered by Prince Leonard of Hutt. -
Pizzagate / Pedogate, a No-Nonsense Fact-Filled Reader
Pizzagate / Pedogate A No-nonsense Fact-filled reader Preface I therefore determine that serious human rights abuse and corruption around the world constitute an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States, and I hereby declare a national emergency to deal with that threat. —Trump Executive Order 13818, Dec. 20, 2017 Pizzagate means many things to many people, the angle of the lens may be different, but the focus zeros in on a common body of incontestable facts. The fruit of top researchers collected in this reader allows you to compare, correlate and derive a flexible synthesis to suit your needs. An era of wild contradiction is upon us in the press. The psychopathic rumblings that pass for political discourse bring the artform of infotainment to a golden blossoming. A bookstore display table featuring The Fixers; The Bottom-Feeders, Crooked Lawyers, Gossipmongers, and Porn Stars Who Created the 45th President versus Witch Hunt; The Story of the Greatest Mass Delusion in American Political History are both talking about the same man, someone who paid for his campaign out of his own pocket. There were no big donors from China and the traditional bank of puppeteers. This created a HUGE problem, one whose solution threatened the money holders and influence peddlers. New leadership and a presidential order that threw down the gauntlet, a state of emergency, seeded the storm clouds. The starting gun was fired, all systems were go, the race had begun. FISAs and covert operations sprang into action. The envelopes are being delivered, the career decisions are being made, should I move on or stay the course. -

1 Nesara History True Story! Aug 28/10 Print Saturday, 28 August 2010 11:03 Monday, May 24, 2010 Partial history of the true NESARA Law by James Rink With all their power and money the bankers thought themselves to be above the law, but cracks were now appearing in their foundations. Angry Americans were beginning to fight back. A class action lawsuit was brewing which would threaten to change the balance of power. This change began in the mid 1970’s, when the Federal Land Bank illegally foreclosed on farmers mortgages all throughout the Midwest. In each of these cases the farmers were defrauded by the banks with the approval of the Federal Reserve System. These court cases would eventually become known as the farmer claims program. In 1978 an elderly ranch farmer in Colorado purchased a farm with loan from the Federal Land Bank; after he died the property was passed on to his son Roy Schwasinger Jr., who was a retired military general. Soon after a Federal Land Bank officer and Federal Marshall appeared on his property and informed him the bank was foreclosing on (utmäta) his farm and to vacate within 30 days. Without his knowledge, his deceased father signed a stipulation (avtal) which reverted the property back to the Federal Land Bank in the event of the borrower’s death. Outraged, Roy Schwasinger filed a class action lawsuit (ung. lämna in ansökan om åtal) in the Denver Federal Court system. But the case didn’t go very far and the suit was dismissed from filing incorrectly. -

Played by the Mighty Wurlitzer the Press, the CIA, and the Subversion of Truth
CHAPTER 6 Played by the Mighty Wurlitzer The Press, the CIA, and the Subversion of Truth Brian Covert A journalist in the US specializing in national security issues, Ken Dilanian, found himself under the harsh glare of the media spotlight in September 2014, when it was revealed that he had been collabo- rating with press officers of the United States government’s Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) in the shaping and publishing of his news stories for the Los Angeles Times, one of the most influential daily newspapers in the nation. An exposé by the Intercept online magazine showed how, in pri- vate e-mail messages to CIA public affairs staff, Dilanian had not only shared entire drafts of his stories with the agency prior to publication, but had also offered to write up for the CIA on at least one occasion a story on controversial US drone strikes overseas that would be “reas- suring to the public” and “a good opportunity” for the CIA to put its spin on the issue.1 And Dilanian was not alone. Other e-mail messages, though heavily redacted by the CIA, showed that reporters from other major US news organizations likewise had cooperative relationships with the agency. Meanwhile, across the Atlantic Ocean that same month, a veteran journalist in Germany was blowing the whistle on his own profes- sion. Udo Ulfkotte, a former news editor with the Frankfurter Allge- meine Zeitung, one of the largest newspapers in Germany, revealed how he had cooperated over the years with the German Federal Intel- ligence Service and the CIA itself in the planting -
GCR/RV UPDATES 12TH OCTOBER 2020 Caro Cliente, Di Seguito Gli
GCR/RV UPDATES 12TH OCTOBER 2020 Caro cliente, di seguito gli ultimi aggiornamenti relativi alla situazione finanziaria internazionale e all’avvio del “National Economic Security and Reformation Act” (NESARA) attuato negli Stati Uniti d’America e tramutato a livello globale in “Global Economic Security and Reformation Act” (GESARA), la legge che restaurerà in tutto il mondo le costituzioni, le repubbliche ed il nuovo sistema finanziario basato sull’oro e sui metalli preziosi, aprendo la strada al conseguente rilascio dei fondi di prosperità legati alla “Global Currency Reset” (GCR) e alla “Rivalutazione delle Valute” (RV), nonché alla Redemption di Assets storici con contenuto aurifero. Considerato che il pagamento effettivo dei fondi di prosperità dipende dall’implementazione della Legge di NESARA/GESARA, per noi risulta importante darvi queste notizie di carattere generale legate al processo, ricavate dal fonti di alta intelligence e da informazioni pubbliche ed ufficiali a noi pervenute, affinchè possiate comprendere e seguire al meglio l’intero processo di avanzamento. E’ importantissimo comprendere che ad oggi non esiste alcuna autorizzazione al pagamento di assets supportati da oro o valute in quanto non si sono ancora attuate, né manifestate, le condizioni che la Legge di GESARA richiede, in primis la rimozione del Deep State/Cabala (il governo ombra che controlla nel silenzio e nel male tutto il Pianeta). Senza queste azioni nessuno di voi potrà mai essere chiamato a ricevere i propri fondi in quanto tutte le notizie fornite sul mercato, sono per la maggioranza, notizie false, rilasciate per aggirarvi e impedirvi di ottenere quanto da voi dovuto. Il processo di rilascio di NESARA/GESARA tocca i seguenti principali aspetti ed è stato delineato come segue: 1. -
