FIVE ACTORS TO RECEIVE THE 2007 VIRTUOSOS AWARD AT THE SANTA BARBARA INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL
Santa Barbara, CA- In a bold move, the Santa Barbara International Film Festival created a new award for 2008 which will honor Casey Affleck, Marion Cotillard, James McAvoy, Ellen Page, and Amy Ryan with the first 2007 Virtuosos Award at the 23rd edition of the Fest, which runs January 24-February 3, 2008, it was announced today by SBIFF Executive Director Roger Durling.

The 2007 Virtuosos Award was created this year to recognize a select group of young actors who have distinguished themselves through performances in film this past year. They will be presented the honor on Wednesday, January 30, 2008.

“There will always be one or two performances that stand out, but this year in particular there were several performances by actors that truly set them apart from the pack. These talented actors have proven themselves to be a strong presence on-screen, and these performances have given a glimpse at the bright future that cinema has to offer audiences for years to come,” Durling commented.

Those actors who were selected to be recognized for their stand-out performances are: Casey Affleck, who illustrated his remarkable range in two of the year’s most powerful performances: his multilayered turn as Robert Ford in “The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford” and as a young detective faced with the ultimate moral dilemma in “Gone Baby Gone.” Marion Cotillard, whose impressionist portrait of an artist who regretted nothing stars in a blazing performance channeling Edith Piaf’s otherworldly quality in “La Vie En Rose;” James McAvoy, whose portrayal of Robbie Turner in “Atonement” exudes the essence of humanity in a truly soulful picture, further proving he’s a bona fide leading man; Ellen Page whose mixture of flamboyant self-possession and vulnerability in the title role in “Juno” could turn her into a new role model; and Amy Ryan, whose character in “Gone Baby Gone” could have easily been a trashy cliché but believably portrays the abrasive and negligent single mom fearlessly, while also co-starring in “Before The Devil Knows Your Dead”.

The tribute, produced by Dana Morrow, will take place at the Lobero Theatre at 8pm on Wednesday, January 30. Tickets for the event are on sale now and can be purchased for $65 through www.sbfilmfestival.org or through the Lobero Box Office, 805.963.0761 and the Arlington Theater Box office, 805.963.4408.

The highly suspicious Pentagon shooting, which has been used as grist for the establishments aggressive smear campaign to portray dissent against government as violent extremism, is beginning to bear the hallmarks of almost every other major case we have studied where the authorities have not only had prior knowledge of the plot but have in fact facilitated it from beginning to end.

The revelation that shooter John Patrick Bedells parents warned authorities that their son was missing, armed, and dangerous, echoes similar warnings that were given to officials prior to the Christmas Day underwear bomber attack, which is just one indication amongst a plethora that the Delta 253 incident was a false flag set-up.

Just a brief reprisal of the last handful of major terror cases in the United States instantly reminds us that in every single instance the plot was artificially engineered by the federal government and then later seized upon, with the enthusiastic support of the corporate media, as justification for more funding, more power, and more authority to denounce critics of the war on terror and dissent against the state in general

On January 27, the Detroit News reported how the State Department refused to revoke Umar Farouk Abdulmutallabs visa despite the fact that he was on a terror watch list and allowed him to board the plane, allegedly in order to avoid tipping off a wider investigation.

After weeks of stonewalling, authorities quietly reversed the official story behind the aborted attack and acknowledged that an accomplice was involved, despite weeks of denial and derision of eyewitness Kurt Haskells description of a sharp-dressed man who helped Umar Farouk Abdul Mutallab board Flight 253 in Amsterdam.

Detroit lawyer Kurt Haskell maintained from the beginning that he saw a well-dressed Indian man aid the accused bomber to board the plane despite the fact that he had no passport and was on a terror watch list.

While Mutallab was poorly dressed, his friend was dressed in an expensive suit, Haskell said. He says the suited man asked ticket agents whether Mutallab could board without a passport. The guy said, Hes from Sudan and we do this all the time, reported the Michigan Live news website.

FBI agents interviewed Haskell and he told them about the sharp-dressed man but officials refused to admit that a wider conspiracy was at hand, stoically maintaining the official story that Abdulmutallab had acted alone. Authorities claimed that videotapes did not show a second man accompanying Abdulmutallab and yet they refused to release any footage of the alleged bomber.

There seems little doubt that Abdulmutallab had at least one accomplice if not more. Authorities have remained silent on other eyewitness reports which described a man intently filming the alleged terrorist throughout the whole flight, a connection that strongly suggests the attempted bomber was involved in some kind of drill and that his strings were being pulled by people in more senior positions.

The Delta 253 incident was just one of the dozens of terror busts and stings since 9/11 to have been orchestrated by handlers aiding the accused terrorists at every turn. We have never come across a major case where the terrorists involved in a plot were not being prodded by the FBI and federal informants, or where clear prior knowledge and forewarning was not evident.

Take the case of Fort Hood shooter Army Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, who repeatedly communicated with alleged Al-Qaeda leaders for nearly a year before his rampage. The FBI knew Hasan was sending emails to terrorists, but they did nothing, allowed him to remain on a U.S. Army base, and even invited him to participate in Homeland Security exercises.

Hasan, Sent 10 to 20 e-mails to several terror-related Islamic figures, including Anwar Aulaqi, a radical imam from Virginia who has been openly propagandizing for al Qaeda in Yemen and who had ties to several of the 9/11 hijackers, reported the New York Post.

As Webster Tarpley reported, Aulaqi is an intelligence agency operative and patsy-minder and one of the premier terror impresarios of the age operating under Islamic fundamentalist cover whose job it is to motivate and encourage groups of mentally impaired and suggestible young dupes who were entrapped into terrorist plots by busy FBI and Canadian RCMP agents during recent years.

Tarpley points to Aulaqis role in the Toronto and Fort Dix, New Jersey, terror plots, which were both contrived by the feds, as proof of Aulaqis usefulness to the authorities in radicalizing terrorist patsies.

It’s too bad there are so many gloom and doom 2012 websites that know nothing about the Mayan calendar.
Here are the facts:

There are no Mayan prophecies in the Cjilam Balam, the Dresden codices or the Popol Vuh that state 2012 will be a cataclysmic event.

There are other calendars with the same end date, such as the Hopi, Aztec, Egyptian and Hindu calendars. Even the I-Ching has a 12-21-2012 correlation!

My recommendation: Go visit the gloom and doom sites. When you’re ready to learn the REAL truth, visit my site at www.maya12-21-2012.com
