Updated, 3:35 a.m. Sunday | In a tense showdown above the East River, the police arrested more than 700 demonstrators from the Occupy Wall Street protests who took to the roadway as they tried to cross the Brooklyn Bridge on Saturday afternoon.
The police said it was the marchers’ choice that led to the enforcement action.
“Protesters who used the Brooklyn Bridge walkway were not arrested,” Paul J. Browne, the chief spokesman for the New York Police Department, said. “Those who took over the Brooklyn-bound roadway, and impeded vehicle traffic, were arrested.”
But many protesters said they believed the police had tricked them, allowing them onto the bridge, and even escorting them partway across, only to trap them in orange netting after hundreds had entered.
“The cops watched and did nothing, indeed, seemed to guide us onto the roadway,” said Jesse A. Myerson, a media coordinator for Occupy Wall Street who marched but was not arrested.
A video on the YouTube page of a group called We Are Change shows some of the arrests.
Around 1 a.m., the first of the protesters held at the Midtown North Precinct on West 54th Street were released. They were met with cheers from about a half-dozen supporters who said they had been waiting as a show of solidarity since 6 p.m. for around 75 people they believed were held there. Every 10 to 15 minutes, they trickled out into a night far chillier than the afternoon on the bridge, each clutching several thin slips of paper — their summonses, for violations like disorderly conduct and blocking vehicular traffic. The first words many spoke made the group laugh: all variations on “I need a cigarette.”

Oil Is NOT A Fossil Fuel, It Is Abiotic
http://www.rense.com/general67/oils.htm
Excerpt:
To begin with, oil is not a fossil fuel. This is a theory put forth by 18th century scientists. Within 50 years, Germany and France's scientists had attacked the theory of petroleum's biological roots. In fact, oil is abiotic, not the product of long decayed biological matter. And oil, for better or for worse, is not a non-renewable resource. It, like coal, and natural gas, replenishes from sources within the mantle of earth. This is the real and true science of oil. Read all about it.
In fact, working in the 1950s, Russian and Ukrainian scientists, cut off from the Western World's oil supply, applied their keen minds to the problem and, by the 1960s, had thoroughly demolished the idea of oil as a 'fossil fuel,' Is it any wonder then that Russia is one of if not the leading producers and exporters of oil. The isolation of the Cold War forced Russia to dig deeper, literally, to find oil deeper in the earth in some places, and to look in other places where no one had thought to look to reveal more. This while America feels incumbent upon itself, since it claims oil production and discovery has peaked and will fade to nothing in several decades, that America's feels it must make war to take other people's oil: Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, the Caspian Basin, Sudan, etcetera.

Cop v CIA (Center for an Informed America)
http://www.davesweb.cnchost.com/nwsltr52.html
excerpt:
The modern Russian-Ukrainian theory of deep, abiotic petroleum origins is not controversial nor presently a matter of academic debate. The period of debate about this extensive body of knowledge has been over for approximately two decades (Simakov 1986). The modern theory is presently applied extensively throughout the former U.S.S.R. as the guiding perspective for petroleum exploration and development projects. There are presently more than 80 oil and gas fields in the Caspian district alone which were explored and developed by applying the perspective of the modern theory and which produce from the crystalline basement rock. (Krayushkin, Chebanenko et al. 1994) Similarly, such exploration in the western Siberia cratonic-rift sedimentary basin has developed 90 petroleum fields of which 80 produce either partly or entirely from the crystalline basement. The exploration and discoveries of the 11 major and 1 giant fields on the northern flank of the Dneiper-Donets basin have already been noted. There are presently deep drilling exploration projects under way in Azerbaijan, Tatarstan, and Asian Siberia directed to testing potential oil and gas reservoirs in the crystalline basement.

Benscher pushed Pearlman to expand Airship, and he did, eventually acquiring four more blimps, which were leased to SeaWorld, Metropolitan Life, Gulf Oil, and others. To raise the needed funds, Pearlman, true to his penny-stock roots, turned to a shady Colorado brokerage house, which in two public offerings helped raise about $17 million selling Airship stock to investors. The firm was what Wall Street calls a "boiler room," that is, it hawked risky, overpriced stock to unsuspecting investors. In 1993, shortly after the Pearlman offerings, the firm, Chatfield Dean & Co., was hit with $2.4 million in fines by the National Association of Securities Dealers for swindling investors; it later agreed to a settlement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (S.E.C.). Among the allegations were charges that Chatfield brokers took investors' orders for one stock but actually bought Airship shares instead.
Pearlman was thrilled with Chatfield's work. When one of its brokers,
Anthony DeCamillis, was banned for a year from the securities industry and fined $25,000, Pearlman hired him to help raise still more money for Trans Con Air from banks and private investors. Another Chatfield executive was hired as well and ended up handling merchandising for the Backstreet Boys. "I remember asking Lou, 'You know, do you think it's wise to hire a guy who's been banned from the industry?'" Benscher recalls. "And he said, 'Oh, Tony'll be great for getting us financing!'"

Backstreet Boys Open Up To John Norris About Disgraced Boy-Band Mogul Lou Pearlman: 'Karma's Karma'
As the Boys drop a fifth album, their former manager awaits trial on fraud charges and is accused of being a sexual predator.It was a difficult moment in an interview ostensibly to mark the release of a new album, and, in searching for the right comment, the Backstreet Boys' AJ McLean turned to a lyric from a onetime boy-band rival.
"One of the radio stations asked us about this, and Brian and I started singing Justin [Timberlake]'s 'What Goes Around ... Comes Around.' I mean, you can't run from these things forever. You know if you're doing something bad from the very get, it's gonna come back around and bite you in the ass. There's no way around it."
The person in question — indeed, a guy Backstreet would just as soon not be talking about in 2007 — is Lou Pearlman, the impresario once known as "Big Poppa," the man who helped turn Orlando, Florida, into the late-1990s capital of boy-band teen pop-dom, and a man who has seen better days. Not only is Pearlman presently sitting in an Orange County, Florida, jail awaiting trial on charges of bank and investment fraud, accused of bilking investors nationwide of millions of dollars through what amounted to a Ponzi scheme, he is also the subject of a damning article by Bryan Burrough in the November issue of Vanity Fair.
The VF piece not only exhaustively chronicles Pearlman's years of financial shenanigans and tall tales that landed him in his current hot water, it also alleges that Pearlman was a habitual sexual predator — harassing, abusing or worse — the teenage boys in his charge.
McLean continued, "I mean we thankfully got out of that whole situation when we did, and you know we don't wish bad upon anybody, but karma's karma."

Marshall Dyllon was an American country music group formed in 2000, comprising vocalists Daniel Cahoon, Jesse Littleton, Michael Martin, Paul Martin, and Todd Michael Sansom. These five members were recruited by country music artist Kenny Rogers and talent manager Lou Pearlman, in an attempt to bring the boy band sound to the country music scene.
Excluding Kenny Rogers himself, Marshall Dyllon was the first act to be signed to Dreamcatcher Records, an independent label which Rogers owned. The group's singular album, Enjoy the Ride, was released that year. It accounted for the chart singles "Live It Up" and "You". The band released a third single, "She Ain't Gonna Cry", in 2001 before disbanding.

Excerpt:
While victims have been encouraged to send letters to national media outlets, congressmen and other elected officials, the campaign has so far been met with apparent indifference to their plight. Even Charlie Crist, the newly elected Governor of Florida, has remained mute on the topic, perhaps due to the fact that he has personally been named as a defendant in an investor lawsuit for failing to properly investigate and act upon some of Pearlman's other apparent crimes.
Les Henderson, one of many fraud awareness advocates who have covered Pearlman's misdeeds for years, recently released a book about "Big Poppa's" foray into talent scouting, along with several convicted criminals, entitled "Under Investigation: The Inside Story of the Florida Attorney General’s Investigation of Wilhelmina Scouting Network – The Largest Model and Talent Scam in America." which is available at Amazon.com Under Investigation ISBN 0-9687133-3-5 His other book “Crimes of Persuasion: Schemes, Scams, Frauds”deals with telemarketing and investment fraud in general as does his website http://www.crimes-of-persuasion.com/index.htm
Mr. Henderson was prompted to investigate and write the highly detailed book after Pearlman sued several of his detractors for notifying the Florida Attorney General Charlie Crist about the obvious criminal activities occurring within the Church Street complex. The book suggests that Charlie Crist whitewashed the investigation in favor of Pearlman, who, has since hosted fundraising parties at his home for the newly elected Governor.

Excerpt:
Louis J. Pearlman is a manager and executive producer from Flushing, Queens, New York, USA. He is the first cousin of Art Garfunkel.
Pearlman played guitar when he was younger: "I just always wanted to be in the music business and the aviation business too. When I was in a band in the late '70s, we called it Flyer."
The chairman, president, and founder, in 1975, of Trans Continental Airlines, Pearlman founded Orlando, Florida based Trans Continental Records after supplying a charter for the New Kids on the Block in 1991 and discovering that they reached over $1,000,000,000 in record, tour, and merchandise sales.
After asking Smokey Robinson and Art Garfunkel for advice on grooming and harmony, his first boy band was the Backstreet Boys, who sold 65 million units worldwide after a two year $1,000,000 investment, followed by *NSYNC, who sold 56 million units worldwide. "The idea was to create our own bootcamp, a finishing school with PR training, choreography, vocal lessons." Subsequent groups include LFO and O-Town (from Making the Band). Also on Trans Continental Records are Marshall Dyllon, a country boyband co-produced by Kenny Rogers, a Latino group C-Note, a 15 year old solo Latino artist Lugo, ex-Backstreet Boy Phoenix Stone, the hard rock Brizz, the girl group Innosense, Kenny Rogers, The Monkees, and KC & The Sunshine Band.
Trans Continental Studios have been used by artists such as Britney Spears, Dr. Dre, and Eminem. His Fashion Rock LLC hosts talent search events and workshops. He is also the author of Bands, Brands, and Billions with Wes Smith.
The Backstreet Boys sued Pearlman because they felt their contract, under which Pearlman collected as both manager and producer, was unjust, and by *NSYNC, who wished to be able to change record labels. According to Pearlman, Johnny Wright had been hired to manage both bands, but when Wright was unable to receive financial backing Pearlman put up the funds. Both suits have been settled with Pearlman still receiving a cut of both groups profits, "and that will be forever," according to Pearlman.
Lou Pearlman was parodied by Jon Stewart on an episode of Saturday Night Live.
