2012 Revolution: World Awakening (Part 4) The Monetary Deception. Spirit Science 1 - Thoughts (Revised) Google’s New Search Tool to Use CIA and World Bank as Sources for ‘Facts’ Eric BlairActivist Post Google is making a big change to how it displays results in it’s dominant search engine. It is rolling out a new feature called the Knowledge Graph which breaks from the traditional practice of matching keywords with webpages. According to an article on Blog Tips about Google’s Knowledge Graph, immediate answers or “facts” from pre-selected sources like the CIA Factbook, Wikipedia, and the World Bank will be provided in search results along side the organic results: Instead of using the typical search strength of a particular answer, this new feature will draw “facts” from places like Wikipedia for historical information, CIA World Factbook for geopolitical answers, the World Bank for economic facts, Freebase for information about people and other predetermined sources.

Sure, most would argue that Wikipedia does a pretty good job through its open-source format to nail down basic facts. Google also explains how it will collect data on you using the Knowledge Graph: How To Be a Crook. The Beauty of Occupy Wall Street. Charles Eisenstein - Ascent of Humanity (1 of 5) History of Iran- (a must see for any Ron Paul Supporter) WW3 Russia.

To understand the complexities of the international food market--and how traders in Chicago can cause Africans to starve--you could get a ph.D. in economics, or read a 400-page report from the World Bank. Or you watch this superb nine minute video, directed by Denis van Waerebeke.

Though ostensibly created for a science show in Paris for 12 year olds, it's actually probably waaaay over a kid's head. Just watch--it's excellent, and very well illustrated: The video begins with a basic question: How is it that the first world has an oversupply of food, while 1 in 7 in the world go malnourished? Basically, farmers in developing countries have eschewed growing local food crops in favor of growing things like cotton for international export. That can have disastrous effects. The solutions will involve everyone, the world over. Still hungry for more infographics videos? [Via Infosthetics]
