Caterbone, Pro Se I S QUESTIONS PRESENTED QUESTION NUMBER ONE: Did the United States of America err in not granting a juris prudential exception. See 28 U.S.0 §§ 1291, 1292 in order to avoid having to consider the following, which would necessarily obligate another set of Congressional Hearings akin to the Church Hearings in 1973 whereby the CIA had to omit the existence of MK-Ultra? Which it declared abandoned. ANSWER TO QUESTION NUMBER ONE: With regards to Estaban Santiago (Mass-Shooter at the Ft. Lauderdale Airport), for which this AMICUS BRIEF was filed; and other Mass-Shooters that have made similar claims of being victims of U.S. Sponsored Mind Control with a history of Military Training - Are their CONSITUTIONAL RIGHTS TO DUE PROCESS BEING COMPROMISED and Should the following not be GRANTED? VICTIMS OF U.S. SPONSORED MIND CONTROL TECHNOLOGIES OPERATED BY OPERATIVES, AGENCIES, AND OR IN DIRECT PARTNERSHIP WITH UNITED STATES MILITARY, LAW ENFORCEMENT AND OR INTELLIGENCE AGENCIES OR INTERNATIONAL COLLABORATIVE ARE ENSURED THEIR CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS ARE AFFORDED THE PROPER ADMINISTRATION OF LAW IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIER ACTIONS, AND IF SUCH ACTIONS ARE DEEMED PROXY TO THEIR HANDLERS, OR CONTROLERS, AND THEY ARE GRANTED THE PROPER IMMUNITIVE DEFENSES DURING CRIMINAL PROSECUTIONS BY UNITED STATES ATTORNEYS, STATE ATTORNEYS, AND OR LOCAL MAGISTRATES. THAT ANY AND ALL SUCH DIAGNOSIS OF MENTAL ILLNESSES ARE FIRST DEEMED TO BE SYMPTOMATIC OF U.S. SPONSORED MIND CONTROL FIRST, AND TREATMENTS ARE TO ENSURE THAT VICTIMS ARE PREPARED FOR A SAFE LIFE AND ASSURED THEY ARE NOT A THREAT TO SOCIETY. THAT LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES AND LOCAL POLICE ARE TO BE ADVISED OF SUCH CIRCUMSTANCES AND ARE PROHIBITED FROM TARGETING AND OR SURVEILLING THE VICTIMS IN ANY WAY. THAT HEARING VOICES AND SUCH RELATED SYMPTOMS ARE NOT TO BE USED FOR MENTAL HEALTH WARRANTS AND OR HOSPITALIZATIONS ALONE WHITHOUT A THORUGH ANALYSIS OF THIER CLAIS OF SUFFERING SYMPTOMS OF U.S. SPONSORED MIND CONTROL. IN THE 1990'S THEN PRESIDENT WILLIAM JEFFERSON CLINTON MADE PUBLIC STATEMENTS AND APPOLOGIES FOR MILITARY/ INTELLEGENCE PROGRAMS USING AMERICAN CITIZENS AS NON-CONSENSUAL EXPERIMENTEES. SUCH PUBLIC DISCLOSURES, AT SOME POINT IN TIME, SHOULD BE ADDRESSED BY THE CURRENT ADMINISTRATION OF VICTIMS OF U.S. SPONSORED MIND CONTROL.

No. 01-16973. ELEVENTH CIRCUIT COURT OF APPEALS Filed December 5, 2003. STATUETES AND RULES 1. AMICUS CASE LAW A person with strong interest reviews on the subject matter of an action may petition the court for permission to file brief, ostensibly on behalf of a party but actually to suggest a rational consistent with its own views. BLACK'S LAW DICTIONARY 75 (5th ed. 1979) News & Sun-Sentinel Co. v. Cox, 700 F. Supp. 30, 31 (S.D.Fla. 1988) Federal Rules of Civil Procedure lack of parallel provision for regulating amicus appearances at the district level. District courts have inherent authority to appoint or deny amici which is derived from Rule 29 of the Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure. See Mobile Cnty. Water, Sewer & Fire Prot. Auth, Inc. v. Mobile Area Water & Sewer Sys., Inc. 576 F. Supp. 2D 1342, 1344 (s.D. Ala. 2008). "Inasmuch as an amicus is not a party 'and does not represent the parties but participates only for the benefit of the court is solely within the discretion of court to determine the fact, extent, and manner of participation by the amicus." Cox, 700 F Supp. At 31 (citation omitted). The decision whether to allow non-party to participate as an amicus is solely within the broad discretion of the Court. Resort Timeshare Resales Inc. v. Stuart 764 F.Supp 1495, 1500 (S.D.Fla.1991); Ellsworth Associates Inc. v. United States 917 F. Supp. 841, 846 (D.D.C.1996). This case is a pending criminal trial. As such it is noteworthy that there are specific constitutional protections that exist in criminal cases that do not otherwise apply to parties and civil actions. See United States v. Ward 448 U.S. 242 248 (1980). U.S. SUPREME COURT PETITION OF CERTORARI Page No. 8 of 77 Saturday November 10, 2018 TO THE U.S. SUP ME COURT From THE ELVENTH CIRCUIT Case No. 18-10134, by Stan J. Caterbone, Pro Se PRO SE & IN FORMA PAUPERIS Commonwealth v. Haggentstaller, 699 A. 2d 767 (Pa Superior,. 1997), Pro Se Appellant sought review of Conviction for violation of County for violation of County ordinance with Rule of Appellant Procedure, court conducted a "thorough, independent review of the record", and found sufficient evidence to sustain the conviction. Hempfield Township v. Hapchuck 153 Pa. Comwlth. 173620 A. 2d. 668 (1993) Pro Se Brief failed to comply with Pa. Rules of Appellate Procedure, but the failure to comply did not substantially impede the Courts ability to review the issues presented and therefore considered the merits of the case. Pa. R. App. P.

In Pederson v. South Williamsport Area School District, the courts interpreted due process, as "Essentially fundamental fairness is exactly what due process means". Furthermore, the United States District Courts in Perry v. Coyler (1978, 524 F 2d. 644) have concluded the following: "Even the probability of unfairness can result in a defendant being deprived of his due process rights.". The first issue to address is that of the Plaintiff's right to due process, as prescribed by law. In Pederson v. South Williamsport Area School District, the courts interpreted due process, as "Essentially fundamental fairness is exactly what due process means".

  • The Occupy Wall Street Movement's Struggle Over Privately Owned

    The Occupy Wall Street Movement's Struggle Over Privately Owned

    International Journal of Communication 11(2017), 3162–3181 1932–8036/20170005 A Noneventful Social Movement: The Occupy Wall Street Movement’s Struggle Over Privately Owned Public Space HAO CAO The University of Texas at Austin, USA Why did the Occupy Wall Street movement settle in Zuccotti Park, a privately owned public space? Why did the movement get evicted after a two-month occupation? To answer these questions, this study offers a new tentative framework, spatial opportunity structure, to understand spatial politics in social movements as the interaction of spatial structure and agency. Drawing on opportunity structure models, Sewell’s dual concept of spatial structure and agency, and his concept of event, I analyze how the Occupy activists took over and repurposed Zuccotti Park from a site of consumption and leisure to a space of political claim making. Yet, with unsympathetic public opinion, intensifying policing and surveillance, and unfavorable court rulings privileging property rights over speech rights, the temporary success did not stabilize into a durable transformation of spatial structure. My study not only explains the Occupy movement’s spatial politics but also offers a novel framework to understand the struggle over privatization of public space for future social movements and public speech and assembly in general. Keywords: Occupy Wall Street movement, privately owned public space (POPS), spatial opportunity structure, spatial agency, spatial structure, event Collective actions presuppose the copresence of “large numbers of people into limited spaces” (Sewell, 2001, p. 58). To hold many people, such spaces should, in principle, be public sites that permit free access to everyone. The Occupy Wall Street (OWS) movement, targeting the engulfing inequality in the age of financialization and neoliberalization, used occupation of symbolic sites to convey its message.
  • Remote Viewing by Tim Rifat Introduction

    Remote Viewing by Tim Rifat Introduction

    Remote Viewing by Tim Rifat Introduction At the height of the Cold War, a new twist to weapons development occurred. The Soviet Union systematised its investigations in to how to harness the paranormal and use it for military purposes. What in other times was seen as magic or witchcraft -laying a curse, predicting the future, having second sight - had already gained scientific respectability in the USSR with the recognition of clairvoyance and the acceptance of psychic phenomena; research into telepathy had started in the Soviet Union in the twenties and thirties. However it was stopped by Stalin, who thought it smacked of idealism and superstition. Now the Russians plunged into a large-scale research programme. Billions of roubles were poured into the investigation and development of psychic energy (psi) and electronic mind-control technology. To convince hard-nosed military men that psychic phenomena can win wars may, on the face of it, appear to be a forlorn task. In fact, it happened the other way, around as some of the leading minds in the Russian military convinced their leaders to spend fortunes on this effort. Science fiction writers have not come close to the reality of the actual research undertaken since then. The aim was no less than to produce psychic agents, capable of visualizing top-secret sites and installations located thousands of miles away, reading the minds of their country’s enemies, intervening and altering thought processes, and even killing through psychic attack. The first step was the development of remote viewing. People displaying psychic sensitivity were sought out all over the USSR and trained under the strictest secrecy as spies with a difference.

    CJR - Iraqgate, by Russ W. Baker March/April 1993 | Contents IRAQGATE The Big One That (Almost) Got Away Who Chased it -- and Who Didn't by Russ W. Baker Baker, a member of the adjunct faculty at Columbia University's Graduate School of Journalism, is a free-lance writer who regularly contributes to The Village Voice. Research assistance was provided by Julie Asher in Washington and Daniel Eisenberg in New York. ABC News Nightline opened last June 9 with words to make the heart stop. "It is becoming increasingly clear," said a grave Ted Koppel, "that George Bush, operating largely behind the scenes throughout the 1980s, initiated and supported much of the financing, intelligence, and military help that built Saddam's Iraq into the aggressive power that the United States ultimately had to destroy." Is this accurate? Just about every reporter following the story thinks so. Most say that the so-called Iraqgate scandal is far more significant then either Watergate or Iran-contra, both in its scope and its consequences. And all believe that, with investigations continuing, it is bound to get bigger. Why, then, have some of our top papers provided so little coverage? Certainly, if you watched Nightline or read the London Financial Times or the Los Angeles Times, you saw this monster grow. But if you studied the news columns of The Washington Post or, especially, The New York Times, you practically missed the whole thing. Those two papers were very slow to come to the story and, when they finally did get to it, their pieces all too frequently were boring, complicated,and short of the analysis readers required to fathom just what was going on.

    Cthulhu Lives!: a Descriptive Study of the H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society

    CTHULHU LIVES!: A DESCRIPTIVE STUDY OF THE H.P. LOVECRAFT HISTORICAL SOCIETY J. Michael Bestul A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS August 2006 Committee: Dr. Jane Barnette, Advisor Prof. Bradford Clark Dr. Marilyn Motz ii ABSTRACT Dr. Jane Barnette, Advisor Outside of the boom in video game studies, the realm of gaming has barely been scratched by academics and rarely been explored in a scholarly fashion. Despite the rich vein of possibilities for study that tabletop and live-action role-playing games present, few scholars have dug deeply. The goal of this study is to start digging. Operating at the crossroads of art and entertainment, theatre and gaming, work and play, it seeks to add the live-action role-playing game, CTHULHU LIVES, to the discussion of performance studies. As an introduction, this study seeks to describe exactly what CTHULHU LIVES was and has become, and how its existence brought about the H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society. Simply as a gaming group which grew into a creative organization that produces artifacts in multiple mediums, the Society is worthy of scholarship. Add its humble beginnings, casual style and non-corporate affiliation, and its recent turn to self- sustainability, and the Society becomes even more interesting. In interviews with the artists behind CTHULHU LIVES, and poring through the archives of their gaming experiences, the picture develops of the journey from a small group of friends to an organization with influences and products on an international scale.
  • Agency in the Afrofuturist Ontologies of Erykah Badu and Janelle Monáe

    Agency in the Afrofuturist Ontologies of Erykah Badu and Janelle Monáe

    Open Cultural Studies 2018; 2: 330–340 Research Article Nathalie Aghoro* Agency in the Afrofuturist Ontologies of Erykah Badu and Janelle Monáe https://doi.org/10.1515/culture-2018-0030 Received May 21, 2018; accepted September 26, 2018 Abstract: This article discusses the visual, textual, and musical aesthetics of selected concept albums (Vinyl/CD) by Afrofuturist musicians Erykah Badu and Janelle Monaé. It explores how the artists design alternate projections of world/subject relations through the development of artistic personas with speculative background narratives and the fictional emplacement of their music within alternate cultural imaginaries. It seeks to establish that both Erykah Badu and Janelle Monáe use the concept album as a platform to constitute their Afrofuturist artistic personas as fluid black female agents who are continuously in the process of becoming, evolving, and changing. They reinscribe instances of othering and exclusion by associating these with science fiction tropes of extraterrestrial, alien lives to express topical sociocultural criticism and promote social change in the context of contemporary U.S. American politics and black diasporic experience. Keywords: conceptual art, Afrofuturism, gender performance, black music, artistic persona We come in peace, but we mean business. (Janelle Monáe) In her Time’s up speech at the Grammys in January 2018, singer, songwriter, and actress Janelle Monáe sends out an assertive message from women to the music industry and the world in general. She repurposes the ambivalent first encounter trope “we come in peace” by turning it into a manifest for a present-day feminist movement. Merging futuristic, utopian ideas with contemporary political concerns pervades Monáe’s public appearances as much as it runs like a thread through her music.
