Election Software Company Could Intercept and Change Ballots Without a Trace

 TRUTHER OCTOBER 23, 2012 

Gerry Bello and Bob Fitrakis | The Free Press

The Free Press has previously reported, Scytl, a Barcelona based e-voting company will be counting votes in 26 states. They will be doing so through something called the Federal Overseas Voting Program or FVAP. FVAP is a program designed to allow military personnel and other overseas Americans to vote in their home districts seamlessly through electronically deliveredabsentee ballots.

Intercepting and changing these ballots, as well as voting electronically on behalf of service people that have no idea such a thing is happening, is something that Scytl is uniquely positioned to do because of their cellphone spyware sister company, CarrierIQ. These stolen votes, distributed throughout jurisdictions across the country, could become a critical component of any scheme to defraud the 2012 presidential election. By means of changing a relatively small number of votes, and laundering those stolen votes in the correct places, the net effect would be a near silent theft.

The Columbus Dispatch reported on Sunday, October 21 that in Ohio, “The campaign of Republican Mitt Romney plans to station Election Day Task Force members to record the name of every voter who walks through the door and feed it to a ‘national command center’ database in Boston as part of an unprecedented high-tech get-out-the-vote effort.”

Sources at Smartech, the company responsible for stealing the election in Ohio in 2004, revealed to Free Press journalist Jill Simpson that the next man in the middle attack would be launched by Scytl from its US headquarters, a location in suburban Virginia that was formerly owned by its managing director, Hugh Gallagher, and seems to serve as his private home. We believe it was Hugh who watched from the windows as our investigators photographed the home.

Scytl is not the only election related business that has been run out of Mr. Gallagher’s seemingly crowded residence. Since 2004, some shell company called Election Training Inc. has called some part of Mr. Gallagher’s 5-bedroom home its headquarters. A phone records check on Election Training’s number yielded us something called Election Systems Acquisitions and Management, also at the same address, allegedly founded in 2002 but listing Scytl as its website. Scytl entered the US elections market on January 11, 2012, when it announced its acquisition of Tampa based SOE software. SOE software is election management software that specializes in internet voting and election results reporting in 900 jurisdictions in 26 states. What exactly Elections Systems Acquisitions and Management did for the decade preceding this event is at best obscure.

On September 28th, the day after the Free Press published the address and photo of Scytl headquarters, their vice president for media relations and governmental affairs, Michelle Shafer (See Why are legal scholars dismissing election fraud?: Manufactured skepticism and exit polls) of Austin Texas, filed anofficial change of address form with the United States Election Assistance Commission. In just 24 hours, in the middle of a presidential election, Scytl USA miraculously relocated to Baltimore, Maryland.

Scytl’s new address is a virtual office at 400 Pratt Street in Baltimore, purchased cheap. A quick web search determined more than a dozen other companies, including three law offices, a parking garage company and a web marketing firm are all crammed into the same suite at that location, making it perhaps a more cramped facility than Hugh Gallagher’s basement. Our investigators determined this on a visit there where they found no-one willing to talk about Scytl at that location, nor willing to discuss the kind of virtual office services offered. Perhaps the staff necessary for counting the votes of America’s 2.6 million servicemen and women had not had a chance to relocate from Hugh Gallagher’s couch (maybe they were in his garage?) to Baltimore.

Scytl is also going through with its plans to promote internet voting and has additional plans to allow voting from smartphones.

Were the centerpiece of American democracy not involved, this whole episode would be farcical. Since certain federal laws are involved, both the first fake location and its subsequent movement may constitute fraud. Election law requires that companies manufacturing election products list their address with the EAC, which is why Michelle Shafer seemed to be in such a hurry to cover their tracks. In moving themselves officially from one virtual office to another, she may have covered one alleged fraud with another.

Scytl, through SOE software has an office in Tampa. Why the Gallagher residence, rather than SOE’s existing facility, was selected as Scytl’s main United State’s office is somewhat unclear to us. A visit there by our investigators found them on the 5th floor of an office building with 17 other companies. Although they appear to actually have an actual office, it is unclear to us how all their employees could work there. It is also unclear why this location was not listed as Scytl’s national headquarters in the first place or why the sudden change of address they undertook after our scrutiny did not take place to their Tampa location where they actually do have an office and employees as opposed to Baltimore, where it seems they do not.

Scytl is not the only phantom voting company the Free Press has investigated physically. In future articles we will detail the obscure locations, low employee head counts, improbable square footage and oppressive security designed to ward off public scrutiny we have found at every location.

During this election, the people serving overseas in America’s armed forces will cast virtual absentee ballots. These ballots will be processed by a company that is based in Barcelona, owned by one British and two Spanish private banks (one of which has an office in New York), has a subsidiary in Tampa, but otherwise exists alternately in a private residence in suburban Virginia or in a desk drawer in Baltimore’s inner harbor. This is virtual faith based voting taken to a new level of refinement.

COMMUNES & COMMUNITIES and Rescue Plans (2007 – 2008)

Now that we have covered something about the earth changes and their rescue plan, we can go deeper into what to do “before” the rescue plans. Communities are the name of the game. I have mentioned them in bits and pieces but I think it’s very important if we go into more detail about them and the reason I think they will be the major plan or way of our future living, not only before 2012 but also after.

Cooperatives (co-ops), communes and communities are nearly the same. As I mentioned before, Christiania in Copenhagen, Denmark, was a community that I lived in and helped start back in 1971. It was more of a community than a commune, or maybe a cross between the two. A commune normally is started by a small group of people who share almost everything and they have strict guidelines of how to set the rules to live together. The members usually have the same belief system. Anyone wanting to join must believe like them or want to at least.

Also they share housing sometimes and they share work together for the common good of the commune itself. Most of them support themselves by some sort of business, arts and crafts, music, food, or in other ways. They meet together usually once or twice a week and members that have been there the longest have more say. But everyone gets to vote except the newcomers and they usually have to wait six months to a year or so. Visitors may sometimes be allowed in the meetings but do not speak or vote.

There are many ways to set a commune up, but the one I know best is the one I instigated or started. It was “channeled” to me. This is how it works: everyone joins into a group. Each group takes care of one necessity of life, one for food, housing, energy, transport, trash, income, communication etc. After seeing several communes I do believe that this one works the best. And these groups have a leader they choose and he or she meets with the other leaders of groups, say once a month, to discuss how things are going and what needs to be added or taken away. The work groups meet once a week and the larger group meets one or two times per month. Later I will a more detailed plan of how I plan to use this idea and this book to start a new commune, but first I will jump a little bit to communities.

Christiania wasn’t truly a commune but a community, even though there were these groups of workers. They represented those who would use Christiania as a spring board to start other projects or communities or communes like I did. The reason it was not considered a commune was because the buildings were inside of the city limits and they were sort of donated by the military. So we had people who wanted to organize and those who didn’t and many people went in too many directions. Therefore, it would never work as a real commune, but more like a community. But even that pretty much failed from what I hear lately.

Anyway, a community is different in that the residents do not necessarily have the same belief system, and they don’t always share work, except for co-ops that have close knit groups working together. But there is some kind of common ground or likeness. Residents do live in an area of close proximity to others, but it is much more loosely fitted together. There are still town meetings and a building for something similar to a city hall where many activities take place. And this is usually a village that has been abandoned, sometimes from mining or forestry. Once the money is gone the people leave and then many times new people or New Age people move in (many years ago it was the hippies).

Anyway, housing and the land is usually dirt cheap and everyone has to have some way of supporting themselves. This is where working the markets comes in. Others start their own business and some rely on tourists. I have seen many different kinds but ones near the cities like Christiania sadly fail. The Nimbin village and Rainbow valley in northern NSW, Australia, is a very good example of a community that works correctly. I spent a lot of time there back in the beginning of it in the late 1980s and early 1990s.

Today it has grown from a small village that was taken over slowly by New Agers. The idea of it caught on and the people who came there were mostly artists and craftsmen at first, then small vegetarian cafes, a solar energy store, health food stores, a movie cinema, etc. And it all grew and grew. People came from all over Australia and even other countries and it grew to be a one 100 mile wide circle and then became known as Rainbow Valley by the time I left in 1992. And today from viewing their website, HTTP://www.nimbinaustralia.com/, the village seems to have grown even larger with many festivals and their income comes mostly from tourists. Many young backpacker type people come, mostly from Europe. They buy a van to camp in and travel, as I did, and they head out to discover Australia on wheels and one of their first stops is Nimbin.

So Nimbin is a very large community, not a commune, but it is a place where one could survive the upcoming earth changes that I talked about in the last chapter. In a way it is a rescue plan, although different from the one of our space brothers and spirit brothers. But I am quite sure they are there too because I personally had my first large healing mystical experience there. And today their slogan is “Come to Nimbin and get yourself healed.” The water there is pure and used as holy water or healing water. I think our space brothers are also interested in it as well since I saw one or two near Nimbin in the Rainbow Valley. But communes are more strict than these communities and for those who don’t want to join a commune or start one, because it is more difficult (but more safe in the end), then I suggest joining a New Age community.

A word to the wise, the New Age movement has been inflicted by the dark forces as well. So before we run off to join a New Age commune or community, here is a word of caution. The New Age movement is made up of many different belief systems that somehow fit together with much open mindedness. There is no one set of doctrines that dominate the others “except” our belief in “God” and “spirituality.” These are the so called foundations of the movement. We do not accept black magic or black arts or devil worshiping or any satanic rituals in this movement, and I have been in this movement for about 25 years. (Nimbin rock Aust.)

And yes, just like Christianity and other religions, dark forces have been trying to insert themselves into the New Age movement. Remember they are “tricksters” and just like what they did to the Christians or Catholic Church during the dark ages, “where they inserted new distorted documents (disinformation). And took out the more truthful ones.’’ well believe it or not, they are now doing the same thing to us.

There are many false Jesus books out there. And a magazine that I had a subscription to for over 10 years, Sedona Journal of Emergence, spoke out against the Illuminati (SSG) and exposed them for many years, but then in 2005 the journal turned around by publishing articles that embrace them even though they are evil because they’re all we’ve got to save the world. I and many others canceled our subscriptions because of this. I still get one magazine a year to see if they have changed.

Just last week I got a New Age DVD video called 2012 Odyssey by Sharon Rose. There were interviews with lots of people I know of in the New Age movement. I thought it was very good, until three quarters of the way through when it turned around and presented a pretty picture of the free masons who were taken over by the Illuminati (NWO) in the mid seventeenth century and which are pure evil. The video showed the free masons and all the supposedly good things that they have done for mankind for hundreds of years. They even exposed their new 10 commandments. The first was to bring the population down to 500,000,000, meaning to kill the rest off. This was cleverly done, woven into many New Age beliefs and concepts concerning 2012. They were very sneaky. A sly fox she was to say the least. She’s also making a sequel 2012 Odyssey II also with many New Age speakers. I wonder if they know they are being used or are they selling out to the dark side? We must be very careful of the tricksters.

So I sent her an e-mail explaining who she or they had teamed up with and how dangerous it was working with the dark side and that it wasn’t spiritual New Age at all but black arts, evil occults disguised as New Age. Sharon Rose answered my email stating that she felt the free masons were part of the good guys and they deserved a right to be known, that there have been many good free masons in our history. She didn’t deny that they were part of the groups (black lodges) of the Illuminati who plan to take over the world. I have seen her on other new age web sites as well, look out for her, she's one of them ,(SSG).

“Please, people,” I say “to be very careful out there with what you read, what you watch and who you join up with. Go only with what feels good in your heart and soul. If not, don’t go there. No matter how nice it sounds if it doesn’t feel good, don’t do it. Many will be fooled in these last days.”

But for those who want to be around people who believe more or less like themselves and are willing to go to many meetings, work closely together and share many more things together, then I do suggest joining a commune. And yes, a commune can become a community and a community can become a commune. They are interrelated. A community’s much easier to start or find and to get into, even for those who don’t have much money.

A commune does many times ask for dollar support (money) so they can grow, also they have many more rules to obey and we must have the same goals and beliefs to join. Also new members usually have to be approved by the whole group. But a community may grow far beyond their control of the housing or property like what happened in Rainbow Valley. For those who have the money, buy a house and land or just land and build. And there are also many mini cooperatives, collective communities, within the larger community. By this I mean there are small groups of people everywhere from between five and 25 or more living on a small or large farm or property like in the Rainbow Valley where people can move around in them until they find their people or they can start their own mini-commune, co-operative or collective.

Remember one of the main things in commune living is being honest and trustworthy, giving service to others, having an extended family with the same belief systems and growing food individually and/or together. Food is most important. It is number two on the list. We must learn to grow most all of our own food if that is possible. Big Brother NWO not only controls the money supply and energy but most of the food that is grown commercially as well. GM hybrids are poisoned leaving a very bad taste and providing little energy. Many years now they have been making GM hybrid seeds that will not reproduce plus they are tasteless and not good for us. Now tests have proven GM food is causing many diseases which are killing people! More on this in a later chapter…

Side effects of GMOs - Ask your doctor if CANCER is right for you

S. D. Wells
Natural News
Oct 21, 2012

If I sprayed your salad with some “RAID” roach killer right now, just a little bit right on the lettuce and maybe a little more on the tomatoes, would you still eat it all, and just assume your body will simply filter out those “small amounts” of toxins? Better yet, what if I paid for it, a nice big, tasty, “bug killer” salad that you could even take outside and no bugs would bother you at all, would you eat it? How about this: If I sprayed a quick shot of some Raid ant killer into your orange juice or your apple juice right in front of you, would you drink it, especially if you’d save 25 cents on every drink you drank from now on? What if most vegetables, fruits, and fruit juice drinks were sold that way, and cheaper than the “Non-Raid” food, would you still buy them? Wouldn’t that pay off for you in the long run? I guess not, because you’re not stupid, are you?

What if the NUMBER ONE SIDE EFFECT of your medication was CANCER, would you still take it, just to temporarily make that headache go away, or maybe to make a little muscle ache disappear for a few hours? GMO means food and medicine are genetically modified, with bacteria and sometimes with viruses, or with weed killer, worm killer, bug killer and people killer. “Pesticide food” is well planned out and has been for decades. Let’s look at history for proof.

Pesticide food timeline

1920 – German chemical companies are hired by Adolf Hitler to create mustard gas, pesticides, and insecticides to be used to gas enemy soldiers at the front lines and in the trenches of WWI.

1940 – Hitler uses odorless gas created by the pharmaceutical conglomerate I.G. Farben (Monsanto, Hoescht, BASF and Bayer) to gas to death millions of Jews in WWII atrocity at Auschwitz and other concentration camps. (http://www.naturalnews.com)

1950s – Hitler’s scientists and “deadly gas” creators are sentenced for their war crimes of enslavement and murder. The scientists somehow only get put in prison for four to seven years for mass murder, and when they get out of jail, the U.S. government and major pharmaceutical firms hire them to work on food chemicals and pesticides for American farmlands (The “birth” of GMO). (http://frank.mtsu.edu/~baustin/trials3.html)

1960s – United States uses Agent Orange (created by Monsanto and Dow Chemical) to burn down the thick forestry of Vietnam, but millions of Vietnamese families get cancer from it, and tens of thousands of U.S. soldiers come home with cancer, most to die from it in less than a decade. (http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Monsanto)

1980 – Aspartame, a genetically modified sugar substitute, banned for decades, was pushed through the system/legislation by Donald Rumsfeld and Ronald Reagan, who fired the head of the FDA and put in place their own partner in crime, right from the first day Reagan took office (http://rense.com/general33/legal.htm). This toxification of millions of innocent Americans auspiciously timed for the “weight loss” craze phase of the 1980s. Rumsfeld just happened to be the CEO of Searle Pharmaceutical, and Searle profited in the billions. So much for “insider trading” laws and “conflicts of interest.” The U.S. government was blatantly breeding cancer and selling it as food.

1990s – Reign of the biotech “Big Agriculture” and pharmaceutical giants: Monsanto, Dow, Dupont, Hoescht, BASF, and Bayer (German mass murdering scientists and their disciples) continue intense work on the real GMO “frankenfoods” that are most popular in the United States: cancer-causing corn and cancer-causing soy, both resistant to the pesticide ingredients used in Vietnam. (http://www.naturalnews.com/036484_Bayer_Nazi_war_crimes.html)

2001 – George W. Bush and his conspiring vice president, Dick Cheney, under advisement from Donald Rumsfeld, subsidize CORN AND SOY in the U.S., helping Monsanto Corporation basically enslave U.S. farmers with seed, equipment, and pesticide “deals” where they are legally bound to use toxic RoundUp pesticide on RoundUp Ready crops, the ones that contain pesticide in the seeds.

1940-2012 – No U.S. legislation restricting pesticides in food. The most evil biotech companies are allowed to “police themselves.” The government sets no limits on the amount of RoundUp contained in corn and soy, nor how much can be sprayed on them as well. No FDA regulations for GMO infant food, including GM pesticide in infant formulas. “Biotech” becomes the fancy umbrella name for PESTICIDE FOOD MANUFACTURERS.

(http://www.naturalnews.com/029863_Similac_infant_formula.html)

September, 2012 – French scientists conclude FIRST EVER long-term study of GMO on rats; extensive research PROVING GMO CORN causes horrific tumors in rats, killing 70 percent of females early, long before their average two-year life expectancy.
(http://www.naturalnews.com/037424_Monsanto_GM_corn_French_study.html)
(http://www.naturalnews.com)

October, 2012 – Europe-wide ban on Monsanto GM corn imminent in wake of French study linking it to cancer. Russia also bans all GM corn imports. (http://www.naturalnews.com/037328_Russia_GMO_Monsanto.html)

October 2012 – Monsanto, Dow Chemical, Dupont, Bayer, Dean Foods (the dairy giant), General Mills, Kellogg’s and Smucker are fighting to keep GMO foods UNLABELED so cancer can be perpetuated! Insurance companies invest in FAST FOOD industry, thus banking on more people getting cancer. (http://abcnews.go.com)
To make matters worse, several “organic” food companies sell out to the GM owned corporate elite. (http://www.naturalnews.com/036834_Kashi_Larabar_boycott.html)

2013 and beyond: No end in sight: Most VACCINES AND FLU SHOTS contain GMO ingredients. Chemotherapy (AKA “agent orange”) is pushed on the masses as a viable treatment for people who have been steadily consuming pesticide, fluoride, bleach, aspartame, MSG and GMO.

Side effects of GMO for ALL ANIMALS

Attention all humans, you are animals also, remember? Human beings have over 90 percent the same genetic make-up (DNA) as monkeys, dogs, cats, and rats. (http://news.nationalgeographic.com)
When you consume GMO corn chips, cereals, wheat products, soy “milk,” and the like, you are heading off a HEALTH CLIFF. Turn around now! Stop eating GMO, and that includes meat and milk which comes from animals shot up with GM hormones, steroids, and the “corporate” animals which eat GM feed like corn and alfalfa. (http://www.consortiumjournal.com/2012/32)

Find out exactly how to quit eating GMO food right now. Find out how to help get all GM food labeled! (http://justlabelit.org/) Side effects of long-term GM food consumption include liver cancer, kidney cancer, colon cancer, prostate cancer, breast cancer (for men too), thyroid tumors, Parkinson’s disease, infertility, birth defects, autism and brain tumors. The dreaded diagnosis of cancer has been linked in over 260 studies worldwide to agrochemicals.

The three-tier cure for cancer

1. Drink spring water: If you don’t trust it in plastic bottles due to bisphenol/BPA, just find natural springs near where you live. (http://www.findaspring.com/)

2. Eat only “Certified Organic” food or grow your own. (http://www.raw-wisdom.com/organic)

3. Eat superfoods. (http://www.raw-wisdom.com/organic)

Remember, knowledge is power, and no person or organization can ever take it away from you. Remember that the body is the temple of the soul, so treat it that way. Otherwise, if you’re still considering a GMO food diet or regimen, be sure and ask your doctor if CANCER is right for you.

Americans Consume Nearly 200 Pounds of GMOs Each Year

Lisa Garber   Natural Society  October 19, 2012

GMOfruits 235x171 Americans Consume Nearly 200 Pounds of GMOs Each YearWe know that the vast majority of corn, soybeans, and much of many other crops are genetically modified, but do we know how the how much GMOs are consumed each year? Actually, yes. Average Americans today eat about 193 pounds of genetically modified foods over 12 months—and that’s an underestimate, according to the Environmental Working Group.

EWG analyzed data from 2011 provided by the US Department of Agriculture to investigate how much GMOs Americans were eating annually.   Four foods—sugar beets, corn syrup, soybean oil, and corn-based products—were selected for calculation, with 95 percent of sugar beets, 93 percent of soybeans, and 88 percent of corn grown in the US being some of the top genetically modified foods.

They found that the average American adult, weighing 179 pounds, consumes 68 pounds of beet sugar, 58 pounds of corn syrup, 38 pounds of soybean oil, and 29 pounds of corn-based products each year.  This means the average American eats more than his or her body weight in GMOs annually—likely more than that.

Other GMOs

GMOs can be found aplenty in the average grocery store (and even Whole Foods, despite marketing claims).  EWG did not include in their study the myriad other GM foods we eat every year; here are some GMO foods to add to your GMO foods list.

  • Apples
  • Coffee
  • Grapefruit
  • Oats
  • Onions
  • Papayas
  • Zucchini
  • Yellow squash
  • Popcorn
  • Strawberries
  • Sugar cane

Neither did EWG include the animals we put on our plates that have been trapped on the equivalent of an economy airplane seat for two years while having GMO candies, sweets, and corn shoveled down their throats. (And no wonder factory farmers are happy to feed corn to their naturally ruminant cows—it makes them gain more weight!)

Children and Hispanic Americans at Greater risk

Research by EWG also indicates that children—who are increasingly experiencing obesity—are at greater risk of consuming more GMOs because of their superior sugar intake. It’s a small wonder if you know that children, who spend an average of seven hours in front of a screen daily, are exposed to more than 15,000 ads each year involving candies and snacks. Hispanic Americans, too, are at risk because they eat between two and three times more corn flour than do those of other ethnicities.

GMO Labeling

GMOs have been under fire for years as harmful for people and the environment. Numerous studies have implicated it with various conditions, including significant organ disruption (especially of liver and kidneys) and fertility problems. EWG brings up that these studies are difficult to conduct, especially in America where our own USDA is in bed with Monsanto, because the latter decides who gets to study or test what patented GMO.

With even the New York Times writer Mark  Bittman apologizing for not calling out the flaws of the Stanford organic food study sooner, it’s becoming increasingly important for those of us who can to demand that our government allow us to decide for ourselves if we want to eat GMOs. Tell our government: just label it.

Will People and the Planet Remain in Third-Dimensionality After Ascension?

2012 OCTOBER 20  Posted by Steve Beckow

Not an accurate depiction of Ascension

I’m just watching a History Channel program called,The Nostradamus Effect, which is saying that, if the “rapture” occurs, it could see pilots removed from airplanes and planes falling from the sky, drivers of cars and trucks removed and major pile-ups happen, spouses disappearing before our eyes, etc.

Heavens, in attempting to state what I believe is the truth of the matter, the truth may be stranger than fiction.

The version of the truth that I prefer is that, when Ascension occurs on Dec. 21, 2012, the situation of the planet will not see some people ascend and others remain on Planet Earth to survive without the missing. It won’t see pilots disappear and planes fall from the sky.

The planet itself will ascend leaving no one here. All will leave, whether by one route or another. Can I back that contention up with quotes? Yes, I believe I can.

Before I do, however, let me acknowledge that the event called the “rapture” is indeed synonymous with the event called “Ascension,” as Archangel Michael explains.

Archangel Michael: I assure you, dear friend, that when you ascend, you will feel a sense of rapture! Now, because that is a highly charged word, I would say, “you will feel the bliss.” So we will not call it the “rapture.” But that is what it is.

Steve Beckow: I thought that might be the case, that it is a rapture.

AAM: But the word has become politicized. (1)

Matthew Ward says that “a timetable [exists] for the planet to be out of third density, [at] the end of your year 2012.” (2)  No “second Earth” will appear as the celestial home for those who remain behind. According to Matthew: “The theory of a celestial body appearing as a ‘second Earth’ and becoming the third density home for souls who do not physically accompany the ‘first Earth’ into fourth density is erroneous.”  (3)

Archangel Michael says that there will be no Third-Dimensional presence of Gaia after Ascension:

Archangel Michael: The 3D Earth has done her cosmetic change. It is not there [after Ascension].

Steve Beckow: It is not there.

AAM: The same way you, dear heart — as the embodiment of a singularly third-dimensional being — are no longer present. [Because I'll be in 5D and not in 3D.]  At that moment, you both, and all jumped.

S: All right. So is there anything left in 3D?

AAM: No, it is all transmuted, transformed, elevated. (4)

To be sure, people who choose early Ascension will disappear from this setting, Archangel Michael tells us, and describes what that will be like for those left behind.

Archangel Michael: Let us be very clear, people will disappear. Now, in conjunction with that, they will also become a dim memory. You’ve had situations like this where you have had a pain or a bad habit or something that used to bother you very deeply, and you let it go. And then a year or two later, this situation will arise again and in a very vague way, you will say, ‘Oh, … yeah, that used to bother me,’ and then you will continue with your day.

The shifting can be incremental. It can also be, and this is going to depend on the readiness of the population, but what we are seeing right now, is that it will be in shifts. And there will be steps and doorways where some will simply go through and anchor for the whole, and then more will go through and anchor for the whole, until the entire process is completed.

Now there still will be those unfortunately, (or fortunately for they are doing what they wish, although it is not my desire), that will choose to continue on in this type of a reality, of the third as you could think of it as … and they will be shifted to an alternate situation [after Dec. 21, 2012]. The people, … say who are sitting there, may blink and not even remember … or have dim sense, ‘I wonder where so and so went?’

People will disappear. It will not be cause for trauma or mayhem. It will not be the same grieving as someone in the physical realm dying. It will just be a slight shift in the case of friends. But, in the case of husbands and wives, parents and children, there would be a knowing. …

Steve Beckow: So, people will then disappear? They’ll go to the Fifth Dimension, is that correct?

AAM: Some people will disappear, yes. (5)

Theoretically the people left behind in the History Channel’s program are those who’ve refused Ascension. The program represents them being left in great turmoil to survive harsh times. But our sources tell us that they will leave with the Earth as well and simply go to other Third- or Fourth-Dimensional placements, with  due care being given them. For example, Archangel Michael says:

Steve Beckow: What about — for the people who say “no”? Will they remain on this 3D Earth, or will they find themselves somewhere else?

Archangel Michael: They will find themselves elsewhere.

S: And will they find themselves elsewhere as babies, or as they are now?

AAM: They will return home. They will return out of body.

S: To the astral planes?

AAM: Yes. And they will be counseled and then reassigned as they choose. (6)

Matthew Ward discusses the subject as well, but please keep in mind that, in the quotes that follow, Matthew is discussing only those of “dark” mind who refuse Ascension.  Others who are not of dark mind will also refuse Ascension. No one is disrespected for choosing not to ascend, as Matthew, SaLuSa and others have told us. All will be treated with the same honor and respect.

Matthew says: “It is Earth’s destiny to leave third density when a universal cycle opens an astral window at the end of this year, and by then no one with a dark mind and heart will be left on the planet.” (7) Not all people who choose not to ascend are “dark” souls, but Matthew, in the quotes that follow, is speaking of dark souls in particular:

“The glories of the Golden Age will be available only to the souls who absorb the light that will enable physical survival along Earth’s ascension journey into the high frequencies of fifth density. When the bodies of those who refuse the light no longer can sustain viability, the souls will go to worlds where the energy matches their lifetime energy and where they will have other opportunities to raise their consciousness and evolve spiritually.” (8)

“The ‘final exam,’ if you will, is whether they can accept the truths that shortly will start emerging about the darkness that for so long has kept your world ‘in the dark,’ especially control of the masses through religious dogma. Individuals who cannot accept the truths—enLIGHTenment—will choose at soul level to physically leave the planet.

“After a suitable time in Nirvana, where they will see how they veered from their soul contracts wherein they had chosen to awaken, they will welcome the opportunity to embody in other third-density placements and resume learning at the level where it left off.” (9)

“Those who choose to refuse the light—that is, ignore intuition and conscience or cling to their current greed, control, deceit or fear – will start to leave as the planet keeps ascending into the higher vibrations where their bodies cannot survive.  Many souls will be leaving in accordance with their soul contracts, some by the geophysical upheavals and wars that will continue for a while longer.”  (10)

So the picture painted by the History Channel in The Nostradamus Effect is not an accurate depiction of what will occur on Ascension.  Upon the “rapture,” it represents the Earth as remaining in Third Dimensionality whereas it will not remain. And it depicts many people as remaining on that Earth as well whereas no one will remain either. All will be reassigned either to Fifth Dimensionality or else to a suitable Third-Dimensional placement or Fourth-Dimensional haven until their next incarnation?

Note;I have e-posted this not because I believe it is true, which I don't but because I believe all of the possible scenario's of the Ascension event must be brought forth. It is my belief that both of these channels have been infiltrated and many others by the ''Visitors'' and the info has been changed. I believe in the older info from the past and in the present  Arcturian channeled info, although they have been infiltrated as well. But all in all what the old and some of the new say, is that there will be many options. That all will not disappear as stated in the above blog. But rather what ever you believe and prepare for is what will happen, as we will create our own future. All possibilities exist, and that means that a new earth exists and maybe several of them as well as the old one, which is in need of much repair.. So where does that leave us , well you choose, if you do want to go to 4D or 5D then you have to do your homework to pass the tests that will be presented to us all. And if you choose not to choose, well that is also a choice, that you choose and therefore a outcome of your past Karma will result in whatever happens to you. But I do not believe everything will just go ''Poof'' like what they are saying here and remember Steve was also mislead before by the same ''Visitors'' so keep a open mind, as there will be many scenario's happening at the same time, Choose one and then ''Go for it''We are 1,Adonai

Over 7000 Earthquakes In Past 30 Days And 66 Volcanoes Are Erupting Right Now

 TRUTHER OCTOBER 20, 2012 

Now Global ELITE are canceling their Meetings!

Side Note: There are also 66 Volcanoes erupting at different stages right now.

7187 earthquakes in all events in the past 30 days. 309 earthquakes in the last 24 hours. Get the latest here: [link to earthquake.usgs.gov]

Today’s earthquake fact: A powerful magnitude 7.9 earthquake struck Alaska on November 3, 2002, rupturing the Earth’s surface for 209 miles along the Susitna Glacier, Denali, and Totschunda Faults. Striking a sparsely populated region, it caused thousands of landslides but little structural damage and no deaths. Although the Denali Fault shifted about 14 feet beneath the Trans-Alaska Oil Pipeline, the pipeline did not break, averting a major economic and environmental disaster. This was largely the result of stringent design specifications based on geologic studies done by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and others 30 years earlier. Studies of the Denali Fault and the 2002 earthquake will provide information vital to reducing losses in future earthquakes in Alaska, California, and elsewhere.

Americans eat more than their body weight in GMOs every year, study shows

americans

Ethan A. Huff

Natural News
Oct 18, 2012

The consumer advocacy organization Environmental Working Group (EWG) has put out a new paper that estimates the average person’s yearly consumption of genetically-modified organisms (GMOs). And based on the figures, which EWG admits are very likely understated, the average person consumes more than their own body weight’s worth of GMOs every single year, a shocking reality with unknown, long-term health consequences.

For their study, EWG researchers compiled data from 2011 U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) data sheets on average per capita consumption of various GM foods, including corn-based sweeteners like corn syrup, salad oils, and various other “corn products” like corn oil and corn meal. They then analyzed these figures based on the percentages of each of the crops used to make these products that are genetically engineered in the U.S.

The average adult in America, it turns out, weighs 179 pounds, and consumes an average of 193 pounds of GM corn-based products and salad oils every year. And when various other GMOs are added into the mix that were not included as part of the original study — in addition to corn and sugar beets, soybean oil and other soy-based products, conventional papaya, and canola oil are all widely consumed foods of GM origin as well — the contrast between body weight and GMO consumption widens even more significantly.

“From these figures, EWG calculated that the average American annually consumes genetically engineered foods in these quantities: 68 pounds of beet sugar, 58 pounds of corn syrup, 38 pounds of soybean oil and 29 pounds of corn-based products, for a total of 193 pounds,” says EWG.

With more new GMOs on the way, consumption patterns expected to increase dramatically

These figures are only estimates, of course, as some Americans are health savvy enough to avoid many of the common GMO ingredients and additives used in conventional foods, while others chug down excess amounts of corn syrup-laden sodas and soy-glutted condiments and sauces like it is nobody’s business. But the fact of the matter is that Americans as a whole are being used as human guinea pigs in a massive biotechnology experiment with uncharted ramifications.

And the really bad news is that, unless GMO labeling laws like Proposition 37 in California are passed in the very near future, the biotechnology industry will continue to secretly release evermore GMOsinto the food supply. In the next few decades, in fact, Americans will very likely be subjected to a whole host of new, undisclosed GMOs if mandatory GMO labeling does not become a national standard.

“EWG considered only three genetically engineered crops (for its study), but more than 30 others are currently being tested in field trials, including apples, barley, bell peppers, cabbage, carrots, cauliflower, cherries, chili peppers, coffee, cranberries, cucumber, flax, grapefruit, kiwi, lentils, lettuce, melons, mustard, oats, olives, onions, peanuts, pears, peas, persimmons, pineapple, radishes, strawberries, sugar cane, sunflower, sweet potatoes, tomatoes, walnuts and watercress,” adds EWG.

“While it is unclear how long it may take for these new genetically engineered crops to reach the market, this long list makes it likely that people could be eating two or three times their weight in GE food annually within the next decade.”

What’s Next for GMOs? How About Genetically Modified Trees!

Prisonplanet.com

Oct 18, 2012

Industries are all about making more money, at any cost. If they can develop something now that will save money and produce more down the road, they will—often tossing ethical concerns to the side. Need proof? Just look at Big Pharma’s sales of harmful drugs, their cycle of side effects and treatments, or even how they want to make genetically modified plants to produce pharmaceutical drugs. Need more proof? Look at Monsanto and environmentally destructive herbicides. The latest movement towards increased production at a lesser cost comes in the form of genetically modified trees.

Further Altering Nature, Now with Genetically Modified Trees!

Genetically modified trees are being developed in the U.S. and around the world. A new paper, circulated at outside of the Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety and the Convention on Biological Diversity cautions that GM tree research is being done without much oversight and with limited information.

As reported on the Science and Development Network, the industries pushing this research are those that can serve to make money off of the GMO trees. They are testing their genetic alterations in the lab with poplars, pines, acacias, and eucalyptus trees just to name a few.

So far, the U.S. has the most patents with 53% and Brazil follows close behind. In all, 21 countries are working on the GMO trees. So, what are they trying to do? From an industrial standpoint, they are looking to “perfect” the trees—make them more useful and more valuable, not recognizing the value of trees goes far beyond their ability to make nice paper or fancy hardwood floors.

They are working on developing wood with less lignin, for instance, which will make it easier to process. They are also working to develop trees that are more pest-resistant, obviously ignoring the issues of GMO crops and their damage to the delicate natural balance.

Isis Alvarez, of the Global Forest Coalition, cautions that these researchers are being hasty in their projects. She says they are pushing the industry to “escalate without any consideration to the environmental or social impacts, and with little or no oversight or monitoring from governments”.

One has to wonder if they’ve thought ahead, to what would happen, for instance, if the trees were completely pest resistant. What would happen to the pests who no longer had wood for homes and food? When they died off, what would happen to the birds who depend on them for their own food—and so on. Likely, the corporations which are no doubt behind the research are concerned with one thing and one thing only—their bottom line.

Romney v. Obama Was a Nauseating Draw, and Both Deserve to Lose


HEMPSTEAD, NY - OCTOBER 16: Republican presid...

HEMPSTEAD, NY - OCTOBER 16: Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney (L) speaks as U.S. President Barack Obama listens during a town hall style debate at Hofstra University October 16, 2012 in Hempstead, New York.  (Image credit: Getty Images via @daylife)

Back in 1968, Alabama Governor George Wallace thundered that “There’s not a dime’s worth of difference between the Republicans and Democrats.” Wallace’s famous quote sprung to mind last night as Mitt Romney and Barack Obama squared off in their second debate.

Surely there were differences between them, but to watch the debate was to see two candidates vying to say who would cut taxes the least for top earners, who would “crack down” most on China, and who believed the most in an “all of the above” energy strategy. Neither said much of import, if at all, each candidate won certain segments, but the impossible to escape conclusion was just how unimpressive both candidates were.

It was like two beginners playing tennis with each other, neither able to hit the ball over the net. Both deserve to lose.



Presidential Debate: Romney Started Slow, Then Thoroughly Beat Obama
Who Won the Second Presidential Debate in Terms of Temperament?
Ryan Drew Blood Early, Then Cruised to Victory Over Unsteady, Flustered Biden

Romney responded that (all quotes paraphrased) “We’ll have to make a college education more affordable for all, and I’ll do this through growth of the Pell Grant program.” The problem, of course, is that it’s the federal government’s existing subsidization of college loans through programs like the Pell Grant that reduce the incentives for colleges and universities to lower tuition costs. And then in promoting a boost in Pell Grant funding, Romney’s calling for more of the same whereby the feds take money from one set of American hands, and place those funds in the hands of others. On the street this would be called theft, but when politicians propose it, it’s “compassion.”

After that, Romney basically repeated the same line over and over again: “I know what it takes to create jobs, and I’m going to make sure you get a job.” The president as our nanny, one supposes. The sad thing is that Romney, far more than Obama, does know how to create jobs, but to explain how he does he’d have to be more up front that he’s rich precisely because he’s expert at turning around companies.

Obama’s response was no better. He added his support for expanding the Pell Grant program that makes college more expensive, and then “bragged” that funding for Pell Grants had already increased during his deficit-ridden presidency.

On jobs specifically, the nanny standard bearer for the Democrats said “We need good jobs, jobs that can support a family.” Having said this, he then said that he wanted to create manufacturing jobs which, even if he could, would in today’s world at best foot the bill for a Starbuck’s latte – once a day. Barack Obama to families: Drop dead!

Moderator Candy Crowley followed up with a query about what either candidate would do about the high number of jobless Americans overall.

This segment went to Romney for the former governor pointing out that the unemployment rate is the same today as when Obama entered office. He added that the number is only 7.8% because so many have exited the labor force due to a lack of job opportunities.

Obama responded with his stock line about 5 million jobs created since he entered office, plus his wildly questionable assertion that he saved 1 million automobile jobs; jobs that would have disappeared under Romney for the latter having wanted to send GM and Chrysler into bankruptcy. Romney’s response was fairly good for him pointing out that Obama too took the ailing carmakers into bankruptcy; Romney simply having wanted to do it the normal way (you know, without the fleecing of secured creditors, gifting the automakers to the UAW) whereby the company continues to operate while restructuring its debt.

In the next question Obama was asked about Energy Secretary Steven Chu having admitted three different times that he’d like to see gasoline prices higher.

Obama predictably talked up how much oil and natural gas exploration has increased during his administration, then pivoted to the green energy he likes so much, and then proclaimed that he would “not cede green energy jobs to China and Germany.” Funny how much us taxpayers have had to pay so that Obama could pursue his green fantasy, and as for China and Germany, if taxpayers in both countries are so eager to fund the economic lie that is green energy, and if skeptics like this one turn out to be wrong, the good news is that we’ll be able to import the energy at a market price as though it was conceived in Berkeley. Does anyone want to bet me on my assertion that green energy will never be able to stand on its own absent major subsidies? Can I pay you back ten lifetimes from now when you win the bet?

Romney then predictably responded that yes, oil and gas exploration is up under Obama, but none of it on federal lands. He also brought up a criminal action the Obama administration took against a producer in North Dakota. And then ever a me-too candidate, Romney said he too was for an “all of the above energy plan”, which on its own is strange for someone who claims to believe in the free market; free markets surely devoid of national energy plans. Puzzling to this writer is why Romney didn’t attack Obama again for not just the costs of his green energy fantasies, but also how much of the companies funded are now bankrupt. A lost opportunity for Romney.

Romney perhaps drew blood for pointing out that a gallon of gas in Nasssau was $1.84 when Obama entered office, and now it’s $4. Obama drew blood in return with his reminder that gasoline was relatively cheap when he entered office precisely because the U.S. economy was collapsing under Republican policies that Romney would supposedly like to revive. Of course neither made the obvious point that gasoline is only expensive insofar as the Obama dollar is very cheap; Obama failing to make that point for obvious reasons, Romney failing to make it because his economic advisers such as Greg Mankiw actually support the Treasury and Fed’s so far successful, and economy wrecking efforts to debase the greenback.

PAGE 2 OF 2

On taxes, Romney was asked what tax deductions he would limit in order to cut taxes for all Americans across the board.

Notable here was that the questioner pointed out the good in the Romney tax plan (20% across the board cuts for all earners); this something Romney has so far been reluctant to do given his odd and frustrating desire to not appear to support a reduction in the price of work for the top 1% in this country whose economic achievements improve all of our lives on a daily basis. Instead, Romney went out of his way yet again to oddly brag that the top 5% would still account for 60% of federal revenues (and you thought Obama was a socialist), while all the benefits would come to middle earners whose tax savings by virtue of them being middle earners can’t move the investment dial that leads to job creation. After that, Romney’s implicit message to middle income types with designs on making it into the 1% is essentially “If you have the temerity to achieve so much that you enter the 1%, your penalty will be higher taxes.” Romney’s the growth candidate. No seriously, he is.

Obama was naturally no better. He, much like his taxation doppelganger in Romney promised middle class tax relief, though in his case he proposed doing the impossible whereby he would try to fleece top earners even more than at present in order to close the deficit. Lots of luck with that. He then added that “Governor Romney thinks it’s fair and that it grows the economy when people making $20 million a year pay a lower tax rate than those making $50,000. That does not grow the economy.” Actually, Mr. President,it does grow the economy when you lower the tax burden on the vital few whose exploits elevate our economic existence, not to mention that any income not taxed away by the feds morphs into investment, investment authors all company formation, and through company formation there’s job creation. Economic growth is easy, though you wouldn’t know it from listening to either of the candidates.

Obama then asserted that Romney thinks economic growth can only occur if capital gains taxes on the rich are maintained at their present rate of 15%. Romney should have answered him in the affirmative, that capital gains taxes are a cost placed on investment, that if you want more jobs you need more investment, and that the job-maximizing capital gains rate is zero, but instead he repeated for seemingly the 6th time his platitudinous line about how “I know what it takes to create jobs, and my five point plan will get us there.” Those listening to the debate on the radio probably thought they were listening to a 4th grade debate, as opposed to a faceoff between two men vying to lead the richest, most important nation on earth. Seriously, we used to be a serious country with serious leaders.

On male/female income disparities, Obama talked about enforcing laws, ending discrimination and more education, and then Romney talked about how he made a point when governor to get more women into his cabinet. There was a time when Republicans decried affirmative action.

Up next was a question from an undecided voter who, though disappointed in our progress the last four years, is similarly worried that Romney would bring us back to the Bush policies that she similarly didn’t like. Good taste, this questioner.

Presidential Debate: Romney Started Slow, Then Thoroughly Beat Obama

Who Won the Second Presidential Debate in Terms of Temperament?

Ryan Drew Blood Early, Then Cruised to Victory Over Unsteady, Flustered Biden

Romney’s response brought new meaning to the word hopeless. Once again he trotted out his “Five Point Plan”, after which he talked up a rush to energy independence that would cripple us economically for violating comparative advantage, then he said “I’ll crack down on China, Bush didn’t.” Actually Bush bashed the Chinese too, and the result was a severely debased dollar that drove oil to nosebleed heights, and a horrifying increase of investment into the sink of wealth that is housing (the middle classes have to hedge governmental destruction of the dollar too) which led to a recession, and then led to a financial crisis thanks to massive bipartisan support of bank bailouts. And then channeling Walter Mondale and Michael Dukakis, two presidential candidates who pandered to the little guy on the way to landslide presidential losses, Romney said “I’m for small business, Bush wasn’t.” Ok, the problem here is that though small businesses create lots of jobs, they tend to be able to thanks to their proximity to large businesses. Rest assured, absent big business, there would be very few small businesses.

In his response, Obama once again blamed the Bush administration for all of the economic problems during his own presidency, then he turned to Romney and said “Governor, you’re the last person who’s going to get tough on China.” Second graders could doubtless relate to the two candidates as they tried to out-protectionist one another.

The next question went to Obama. The questioner had voted for Obama in 2008, didn’t think things were so hot economically in 2012, so how would they be different if Obama were handed a second term.

Obama naturally blamed Bush yet again before talking about the 5 million jobs he created. Romney perhaps did a little better in response as he rattled off the economic statistics of what is Obama’s failed economic presidency. Romney noted that during Reagan’s recovery, and despite a much smaller population, two times as many jobs were created. He then had a good line about how Obama “is great at describing his vision, but his record doesn’t match his rhetoric.” Round to Romney, flyweight division.

And then Obama took the next round when a Hispanic woman asked about their immigration policies for productive, but illegal immigrants. Romney gave the usual GOP line about how he wants immigration, if it’s legal. “But I won’t grant amnesty to illegals”, and then he talked about his support of a computer system that would crack down on companies that hire illegals. No joke, we used to be a free country, and Republicans used to be into freedom.

Obama seemed reasonable after Romney in the sense that he acknowledged the truth that we’re a nation of immigrants, not to mention the happy truth that the world’s talented still want to come to the U.S. Obama then opened himself up to major smackdown from Romney when he noted that the illegal inflow of workers across the border is the lowest it’s been in 40 years. Romney could have easily said that the “inflow has plummeted precisely because your economy is so bad”, but to do so, he would have had to acknowledge just how foolish is his own immigration stance. Round to Obama, featherweight division.

And then they returned to jobs, and a questioner asked what both would do about outsourcing; outsourcing the economically stimulative process whereby low value work is sent overseas, the outflow of jobs boosts profits for U.S. companies, then those U.S. companies use their profits to expand while creating higher-paying jobs stateside. If we didn’t send jobs overseas, we’d be a very poor country for so many Americans still stuck in low value work. In short, outsourcing is beautiful.

Not to these two amateurs. In Romney’s case, as though he felt he hadn’t stressed enough his plan to start an economy-wrecking, stock market crashing trade war with China, the former governor, as if on auto-pilot talked up again his promise to “crack down” on China in order to bring jobs back to the U.S.

And then Obama, never one to let a bad, economy crippling idea go unanswered, followed up with his own bad idea, contradicting himself in the process. Specifically, he drooled that “Some jobs won’t come back to America because they’re low wage and low skill, and that’s why I want to bring back manufacturing jobs to the United States.” Translated: “Low wage, low skilled jobs aren’t coming back to America, so I want to bring low wage, low skilled jobs back to America.”

Last night’s debate has to be considered a draw, albeit one in which both fighters punched themselves out in the first round. It was truly an embarrassing night for each candidate, and as the world was watching, an embarrassing night for the United States more broadly. It’s been said that “When a Democrat runs against a Democrat, a Democrat wins.” I’ll have neither.

The Presidential Debates Are Nothing But Scripted Beauty Contests

Washington’s Blog
Oct 18, 2012

The “spontaneous” questions from audience members are actually pre-screened, and even the moderator is forbidden from asking follow-up questions:

Gawker’s John Cook succinctly sums up the rigged debates:

Leaked Debate Agreement Shows Both Obama and Romney are Sniveling Cowards

***

Both campaigns are terrified at anything even remotely spontaneous happening.

They aren’t permitted to ask each other questions, propose pledges to each other, or walk outside a “predesignated area.” And for the town-hall-style debate tomorrow night, the audience members posing questions aren’t allowed to ask follow-ups (their mics will be cut off as soon as they get their questions out). Nor will moderator Candy Crowley.

Glenn Greenwald notes:

The moderators were selected to ensure that nothing unexpected is asked and that only the most staid and establishment views are heard. As journalism professor Jay Rosen put it when the names of the moderators were unveiled, using terms to describe those views that are acceptable in Washington media circles and those which are “fringe”:

“In order to be considered as a candidate for moderator you have to be soaked in the sphere of consensus, likely to stay within the predictable inner rings of the sphere of legitimate controversy, and unlikely in the extreme to select any questions from the sphere of deviance.”

Here then, within this one process of structuring the presidential debates, we have every active ingredient that typically defines, and degrades, US democracy. The two parties collude in secret. The have the same interests and goals. Everything is done to ensure that the political process is completely scripted and devoid of any spontaneity or reality.

All views that reside outside the narrow confines of the two parties are rigidly excluded. Anyone who might challenge or subvert the two-party duopoly is rendered invisible.

Lobbyists who enrich themselves by peddling their influence run everything behind the scenes. Corporations pay for the process, which they exploit and is then run to bolster rather than threaten their interests. The media’s role is to keep the discourse as restrictive and unthreatening as possible while peddling the delusion that it’s all vibrant and free and independent and unrestrained. And it all ends up distorting political realities far more than illuminating them while wildly exaggerating the choices available to citizens and concealing the similarities between the two parties.

To understand the US political process, one can just look to how these sham debates are organized and how they function. This is the same process that repeats itself endlessly in virtually every other political realm.

Indeed, the Republican and Democratic parties have long formed Gentlemen’s agreements – through the “Presidential Debate Commission” – on what topics are “off-limits” (and which journalists can even ask questions) during presidential debates:

As this 4-minute video shows, – they both ignore the desires of their own bases:

The American people are sick of both the Republican and Democratic party, and yearn for something different. See thisthis and this.

No wonder … the mainstream Democratic and Republican parties agree on most matters which affect American lives the most directly. Hereherehere here and here.

Obama and Romney are virtually indistinguishable on most core issues. For example: jobsfreedomsand favoring fatcats instead of the little guy.

The Founding Fathers warned – at the very birth of our nation – against a two-party system as being destructive to liberty.

If we opened the debates up to third parties, it would show how similar the GOP and Democratic Party really are:

Chemtrail Update

2012 OCTOBER 17 . Posted by Suzanne

It’s been just over one month since I posted an article on chem trails (http://the2012scenario.com/2012/09/where-have-all-the-chemtrails-gone-well-some-havent/), and since then, several readers have written in with what they’ve been noticing in their part of the world.

For my part, I was feeling a little blue about it because after all that time being free of them, it seemed that a rash of trails started afresh and I found myself wondering what on Earth was going on. I so wanted the lack of trails to portend the end of the cabal’s ability to do any such thing. Even so, I continued performing my personal transmogrification process on them sending love and light.

Lots of readers wrote in at that time with more bad news:

Anne who lives in Lockerbie, Scotland said she saw them on most days.

Eline saw massive spraying over western D.C. suburbs.

Jean said the skies over Franklin, North Carolina were just covered with them on the 14th of September and her son in Atlanta, Georgia said their skies were covered the day before.

Michael of north western Nevada said it had been clear but on September 13th the sky was so full of them that it was solid “cloud cover.”

Maria from from Valladolid, Spain had been seeing them every day.

Angela was seeing a lot of chem trails in Sutton (surrey) in the UK.

Bobbie said they’re still going strong in central Alberta, Canada.

John of Oakland, California said they started getting hit with chem trails on the 13th of September after a long reprieve.

Lynn of Ashville, North Carolina said they stopped for a while and came back in earnest again there.

Avril of Kent in the U.K. had noticed them on Saturdays.

Teresa of western Michigan said they were spraying like crazy there every two or three days.

Donna of New Hampshire was seeing them all week.

Sonya said chem trails are back in Petaluma, California.

Mary wrote that chem trails are prolific in Twin Cities, Minnesota.

Catherine of Atlanta, Georgia reports clear skies for months until around 9/11, when there were 40 or 50 of them over the city.

Crystlen has noticed them in Boise, Idaho.

Aaron says they’re around often in northwest Indiana.

Celine saw them all over the sky on the 14th of September in the area north of San Francisco.

Ghislaine of Quebec in Canada says they were gone and have returned.

Penny says chem trails continue in North and South Dakota.

Riccardo noticed an increase of chem trails around his hometown in Bavaria, Germany.

Diane has seen planes spraying over St. Charles, Illinois.

Maria, who lives 30 minutes north of Manhattan watches chem trails fill their skies almost every day.

Angie of New South Wales in Australia writes in to say that chem trail spraying is still very active.

Ruben says that in Glendale California, planes are crisscrossing the sky with nonstop trails of white clouds behind them.

Keep in mind that these reports are from a month ago. To me it feels like a great deal longer ago than that, but time is feeling a little hard to pin down these days in my experience.

I do understand being upset about the presence of these things in our skies, especially for those of us who were getting used to the idea that it was over. When the skies over my home were crisscrossed with trails again it upset me, too.  I got a little fierce and one day out on my hammock I had the thought come into my head, (or maybe it was my heart) “I will not let you hurt my children.” We have so much more power than we understand right now, so what if we started pretending and using our imaginations to transform the poison into love energy that will come down to Earth and lift us all?

Maybe what’s required is a shift in perception. This is illusion, anyway. We can rewrite the story to have a different end. When my daughter was younger and she woke up from a nightmare, I would help her by listening to the dream and re-creating it into a story that felt better…one where she had control of what happened. We can do the same thing if we just realize that we can.

Negative human emotion feeds exactly what it is that we want to change, so wouldn’t our time and energy be better spent in making things better, even if it’s “just” in our imaginations? Our thoughts and intentions are immensely powerful. I think it’s time we use our power and embrace it.

Now I’ll share letters from the end of September to the present, and it feels to me as though a window opened wide in our perceptions and we started seeing these things in a different light:

Anna from Rego Park, Queens in New York writes that she saw chemtrails but they were very quickly vanishing from the sky and being neutralized.

Deb from Illinois writes in to say that it finally came to her that all those low dark gray clouds that she sees all the time are not another program to harm the earth and humanity, but they are cleaning the air! She let go of the fear and started sending them gratitude and love and the results have been amazing! If people were to watch them closely, she says, they’ll see that they seem to move independently of the other clouds and it even appears they move towards the wind at times! It’s amazing to watch!

They had heavily sprayed her area last week and the gray clouds came rushing in. In a short period of time, the sky was clear. The next day there was heavy spraying and she was entranced watching all this happening as she was driving home. Suddenly a large area of small gray clouds formed and headed towards the biggest bunch of trails! As they moved closer, the stuff dropping started being pulled towards the gray clouds! WOW!

The gray clouds cleared all of them out pronto!

Deb wants to get the word out to send love and gratitude to those hardworking little gray clouds so that more and more areas would be free of that nastiness!

Susan writes from Sedona, Arizona that she’s suspected the “jet” airliners may have been holographic images over light ships. After work on October 4th, she was sitting in her back yard and looked up as a “trail” was just starting. She laughed when she saw the ship because it was definitely a ship, not a plane…as soon as she telepathically acknowledged it, the “trail” stopped.

The ships are so high, she said, that most people probably don’t even try to seem them but this one came down closer to make sure they connected. She thanked the crew for letting her see the truth. The message she received is that they’re getting people accustomed to seeing the “trails” and the “jets” and it will make it less scary when they show themselves in the ships.

Riccardo of Bavaria who wrote previously has written in again to let us know that he noticed three airplanes in the sky on the 16th of October, each of them spreading chem trails. This wasn’t unusual around where he lives because chem trails have persisted in his region until now. However, this time he noticed that as fast as the trails appeared, they dissipated into thin air. Not only for those planes, it happened with every single plane he saw that day, and there were at least 15 of them.

Where I live now, I’ve noticed the very same thing. I do see airplanes with a trail behind them but it’s always a short one. The sky is bluer and I no longer think of chem trails as harmful. It occurs to me that it’s our belief that a thing can hurt us that actually gives that thing the power to do so.

Rev. joshua of Belize  says, that slowed down for a short while but then came back and was worse than ever before. Were talking about the ''red dawn'' the ones that can kill you. I lost a friend from them and nearly died myself a decade ago. Where I am now many people are sick all the time. They even spray on and around the full moon time at night. It seems that the DC are making us as sick as possible, trying to keep us from Ascension as they are overthrown.

The Future of Agriculture May Be Up

Advocates of 'vertical farming' say growing crops in urban high-rises will eventually be both greener and cheaper !

By OWEN FLETCHER

Want to see where your food might come from in the future? Look up.

The seeds of an agricultural revolution are taking root in cities around the world—a movement that boosters say will change the way that urbanites get their produce and solve some of the world's biggest environmental problems along the way.

It's called vertical farming, and it's based on one simple principle: Instead of trucking food from farms into cities, grow it as close to home as possible—in urban greenhouses that stretch upward instead of sprawling outward.

The idea is flowering in many forms. There's the 12-story triangular building going up in Sweden, where plants will travel on tracks from the top floor to the bottom to take advantage of sunlight and make harvesting easier. Then there's the onetime meatpacking plant in Chicago where vegetables are grown on floating rafts, nourished by waste from nearby fish tanks. And the farms dotted across the U.S. that hang their crops in the air, spraying the roots with nutrients, so they don't have to bring in soil or water tanks for the plants.

However vertical farming is implemented, advocates say the immediate benefits will be easy to see. There won't be as many delivery trucks guzzling fuel and belching out exhaust, and city dwellers will get easier access to fresh, healthy food.

Plantagon

Looking further, proponents say vertical farming could bring even bigger and more sweeping changes. Farming indoors could reduce the use of pesticides and herbicides, which pollute the environment in agricultural runoff. Preserving or reclaiming more natural ecosystems like forests could help slow climate change. And the more food we produce indoors, the less susceptible we are to environmental crises that disrupt crops and send prices skyrocketing, like the drought that devastated this year's U.S. corn crop.

Dickson Despommier, a microbiology professor at Columbia University who developed the idea of vertical farming with students in 1999, thinks vertical farming will become more and more attractive as climate change drives up the cost of conventional farming and technological advances make greenhouse farming cheaper. In fact, he hopes the world will be able to produce half of its food in vertical farms in 50 years.

Then "a significant portion of farmland could be abandoned," he says. "Ecosystem functions would rapidly improve, and the rate of global warming would slow down."

An Idea on the Rise

A host of vertical farms are up and running in the U.S. and overseas, and others are under construction. Some are backed by nonprofits aiming to promote environmental causes or local job creation. Others will be for-profit ventures meant to meet demand for local produce. And some, like one in South Korea, are being funded by governments looking for ways to boost domestic food security.

 

So far, vertical farms are producing only a small amount of food. Advocates are still developing different building designs and growing techniques to boost the efficiency of cultivating food indoors. And a proven business model based on the concept has yet to emerge.

One ambitious project under construction is trying to address all of those challenges at once. At 12 stories, the triangular farm in Linköping, Sweden, will be one of the tallest vertical farms in the world—most max out at several stories—and will use innovative ways to generate revenue. Not only will the company behind the farm, Sweden's Plantagon, sell its produce at a local farmer's market, but it also will lease out office space on most floors.

Another unique feature: Outside the office windows, on the building's southern face, a mechanical track enclosed in its own layer of glass will carry growing plants from the top of the building to the bottom floor. The arrangement is meant to give the plants even exposure to sunlight and allow Plantagon to perform all of its planting and harvesting in one place—on the ground floor. (After planting, a normal vertical elevator takes the boxed plants to the top floor to start their voyage down.) The company plans to produce 300 to 500 metric tons of leafy greens like bok choy a year.

Offsetting Costs

As for the price tag, "it's much more expensive, of course, to build a greenhouse vertical than to build a normal greenhouse," says Hans Hassle, Plantagon's chief executive. But the planned revenue streams will help make up for that, and energy costs will be lower because the setup will use waste from various sources—such as heat from a nearby power plant and biogas produced through conversion of the building's own organic garbage. All told, the planned energy-saving measures will reduce the building's energy use by at least 30% to 50%, Mr. Hassle says.

Mr. Hassle says the company's next greenhouse will be either a demonstration model in Shanghai or a research facility in Singapore. These are good venues for the idea, he says, because they're highly dense and urbanized societies that already need to produce more food locally.

In the U.S., vertical farms are sprouting in urban areas across the country, some in old buildings that have been repurposed for agriculture. One operation called the Plant is producing vegetables in a three-story former meatpacking facility on Chicago's South Side.

Aquaponics

The farm grows vegetables on small rafts floating on water, which is filled with nutrients from waste produced by fish in a separate tank—a setup called Aquaponics. Light comes from lamps designed to emit the proper wavelengths for plant growth. The Plant is also designing a growing system in which crops could grow sticking out at an upward angle from vertical boards, with nutrients provided to the plant roots by water dripping down a film from pipes near the ceiling.

The Plant was founded by John Edel, a 43-year-old Chicago native who has led other projects to renovate and reuse urban buildings. The facility currently rents out parts of its space to tenants including three farmers and two bakeries and plans to find more; it also intends to open a shared retail area where the tenants can sell their goods.

AeroFarms

GROW ANYWHERE This AeroFarms system is being used in buildings in Seattle, Chicago and elsewhere.

Other farms around the country use different techniques designed to save space, reduce water consumption and even avoid the need for soil. Farms in warehouses and other buildings in Seattle, Chicago, upstate New York and New Jersey, among other places, use an aeroponics system from AeroFarms of Ithaca, N.Y. The method involves growing plants with their roots hanging in the air, where they can be sprayed with water and nutrients.

Omega Garden Inc., of Qualicum Beach, British Columbia, sells a planting device called Volksgarden, a rotating cylinder four feet in diameter and two feet long. Plants grow in a circle around the inside of the cylinder. As the device rotates, their roots dip into a tray holding a liquid solution that provides water and nutrients. A light runs horizontally through the cylinder to nourish the crops.

Green Spirit Farms LLC is using the system in New Buffalo, Mich., in a former plastics-injection facility. The farm plans to fill the space with Volksgarden units stacked three levels high, says Green Spirit site manager Ben Wiggins.

Simpler Solutions?

Still, many agricultural experts aren't sold on the idea of vertical farming. The core argument against it: Conventional farms are the simplest and most efficient places to produce food. Growing food indoors, using artificial lights and other special equipment, means more effort and expense—and cancels out any benefits of being close to customers, critics say.

That's why George Monbiot, a writer and environmental activist based in Oxford, England, says there's "no prospect" that more complicated vertical-farming techniques could contribute substantially to world food production. As for those vertical farming systems that will consume extra energy to power equipment like artificial lights, he says, "Even if you are taking the energy from renewable sources, there are better ways of using that renewable energy."

Likewise, R. Ford Denison, an adjunct professor of agricultural ecology at the University of Minnesota, thinks the energy use from vertical farms would cancel out any fuel savings from transportation. "Food transport from farm to store is a tiny fraction of total agricultural energy use," he says. So if vertical farms use even small amounts of energy to run their systems, or if consumers have to use extra fuel traveling to urban farmers' markets, it "would swamp any energy savings in transporting food to the cities."

Backers say the comparison between conventional and vertical farming isn't apples to apples, since the government heavily subsidizes expenses including crop insurance for traditional agriculture, greatly reducing the costs involved and the risks that farmers face from unpredictable weather conditions.

Food Security

But boosters say the equation will very likely change as severe weather makes indoor farming a safer and more reliable alternative to regular growing. Not only will the rising cost of conventional farming make vertical farms look better in comparison, they say, but vertical farms in some places could end up getting subsidies.

"If we imagine that vertical farming is going to become part of a nation's food-security program, then naturally this part of the industry needs subsidies," Plantagon's Mr. Hassle says.

Dr. Despommier, who is also an adviser to Plantagon, acknowledges that energy use, particularly in artificial lighting, remains a challenge for some vertical farms. But he says the lighting industry has made significant progress in recent years on reducing power consumption for specialized lights to grow plants, and researchers continue to work on the problem.

More broadly, he argues that the idea of vertical farming on a large scale will seem increasingly realistic as techniques evolve. He cites cellphones and plasma-screen televisions as examples of innovations that were unimaginable before their time.

"You have to start small and you have to start at the research level before you jump into the commercial aspect of this thing, but that's the way all these ideas start," Dr. Despommier says. "Everything we have in this world of ours started out crazy."

The Readers Weigh In

Most WSJ.com readers in an online poll have expressed interest in buying local food. Here's a sampling of comments.

I can see how things are grown and made and how the animals are treated. Being knowledgeable about the food you eat is extremely important. Ignorance is no longer bliss when it comes to what goes into your food.

-- Scargosun

The locavore movement isn't just about getting food that is fresher, but also about supporting the local economy. It is "worth it" to keep our dollars and jobs within our community.

-- Carolyn Pearce

The long-term benefits for our environment, local economies and health far outweigh the expense and inconvenience. If more people start buying local then the cost will decline.

-- Ben Schaub

Mr. Fletcher is a staff reporter in The Wall Street Journal's Chicago bureau. He can be reached at owen.fletcher@wsj.com.

Note; A combination of all of the above but especially Aquaponics puts the power back into the hands of the people were it once was many yrs ago. And at the same time salves the problem of not only food shortages and expensive food, but keeps out all the poisen that they are feeding us now, especially the GMO's. Its time for change folks, back to grass roots. Rev. Joshua, Adonai

THE LIGHT OF LOVE IS MORE THAN I CAN SAY

 

We do think we know what it is, I believe,

A point in time, the place that we all can percieve

A personality mystery that surrounds our very being,

Coming home to find all creation that I am seeing.

 

How is it possible for this to be just thoughts in my mind,

What is it that makes me seek and want to find.

All that I can be, my heart decree's this reality,

I am you and you are me, all are one in eternity.

 

My Vision Quest hunts me, there must be more,

But why,I ask, I have been here many times before.

Don't look back to what you have been, my son,

The father says to me, see ,we have just begun.

 

To doubt is to stand still, time is ever so brief,

Look all around you, Love is such a grand relief'.

The voice inside of me, is ever so strong sometimes.

Leading me forward today in words that must rhyme.

 

Is this my real family, if so which one is me,

My evolving mind, spirit leads me forward to see.

My soul is the record keeper, or so I am told,

He presents all these scenario's, he is so bold.

 

I have a ticket, a free trip home to our destiny ,

Question is, do I want to leave this 3D reality.

I have become familiar with this pain and sorrow,

It has become my day and then my tomorrow.

 

How can I go to a place where I have never been?,

What will happen to me then,will they let me in?

My mind try's to make a nice picture for me to see,

My spirit guides light,comes and takes hold of me.

 

Where is it that you want to go ,my son,he asks,

you've already been there many times in the past.

The journey has begun, to a place not so distant,

its already inside of you, in this most holy instant.

 

Time stands still for those who are in the knowing,

The distance is short, consuming all in its flowing.

Never to turn back, except to remember who you are,

now is the time, the place, home is not so very far.

 

''Love'' is the journey that we have been on,

were it leads is to a distant shore, a knew dawn

So please Open your heart and let it all in,

because this is were it begins and never ends.

What is Aquaponics?


"Aquaponics is the cultivation of fish and plants together in a constructed, re-circulating ecosystem utilizing natural bacterial cycles to convert fish wastes to plant nutrients.

This is an environmentally-friendly, natural food growing method that harnesses the best attributes of aquaculture and hydroponics without the need to discard any water or filtrate or add chemical fertilizers."

Click here for a community based Glossary of Aquaponics Terms

In combining aquaculture and hydroponics aquaponics capitalizes on the benefits and eliminates the drawbacks of each.

The problems with traditional soil-based gardening -

  • aquaponic gardening - less back-strainThe weeds

  • The amount of water required

  • The soil-borne insects

  • The heavy digging, the bending, the back strain

  • The deer, the bunnies, the raccoons

  • Knowledge required to know when to water, when and how to fertilize, and what is the composition of the soil

Patio Gardening with no deer or bunnies

 

These issues are all solved with hydroponics, but hydroponics has problems of its own -

  • Traditional hydroponic systems rely on the careful application of expensive, man-made nutrients made from mixing together a concoction of chemicals, salts and trace elements. In aquaponics you merely feed your fish inexpensive fish feed, food scraps, and food you grow yourself.

  • The strength of this mixture needs to be carefully monitored, along with pH, using expensive meters.In aquaponics you carefully monitor your system during the first month, but once your system is established you only need to check pH and ammonia levels occassionally or if your plants or fish seem stressed.

  • Water in hydroponic systems needs to be discharged periodically, as the salts and chemicals build up in the water which becomes toxic to the plants. This is both inconvenient and problematic as the disposal location of this waste water needs to be carefully considered. In aquaponics you NEVER replace your water; you only top it off as it evaporates.

  • Hydroponic systems are prone to a disease called "pythium" or root rot. This disease is virtually non-existant in aquaponics systems.

And Aquaponics is proven to be even more productive than hydroponics! (click here for study results)

The problem with recirculating aquaculture -

  • aquaponics solves aquaculture problemsThe tank water becomes polluted with fish effluent which gives off high concentrations of ammonia. Water has to be discharged at a rate of 10-20% of the total volume in the tank daily. This uses a tremendous amount of water. Again, in an aquaponics system you never need to discharge your water

  • This water is often pumped into open streams where it pollutes and destroys waterways.

  • Because of this unhealthy environment fish are prone to disease and are often treated with medicines, including antibiotics. Fish disease is rare in an aquaponics system.

How aquaponics changes the game

  • Aquaponically grown tilapia fishWaist-high aquaponics gardening eliminates weeds, back strain and animal access to your garden.

  • Reuse resources currently considered "waste". In aquaponics there is no more toxic run-off from either hydroponics or aquaculture.

  • Aquaponics uses only 1/10th of the water of soil-based gardening, and even less water than hydroponics or recirculating aquaculture.

  • Watering is integral to an aquaponic system. You can't under-water or over-water.

  • Fertilizing is also integral to an aquaponics system. You can't over-fertilize or under-fertilize.

  • Gardening chores are cut down dramatically or eliminated. The aquaponics grower only does the enjoyable tasks of feeding the fish and tending and harvesting the plants.

Aquaponically grown heirloom tomatoesInstead of using dirt or toxic chemical solutions to grow plants, aquaponics uses highly nutritious fish effluent that contains all the required nutrients for optimum plant growth. Instead of discharging water, aquaponics uses the plants and the media in which they grow to clean and purify the water, after which it is returned to the fish tank. This water can be reused indefinitely and will only need to be replaced when it is lost through transpiration and evaporation.

Two primary methods of aquaponics growing are most widely in use today.

  • The raft based aquaponics growing system uses a foam raft that is floating in a channel filled with fish effluent water that has been through filtration to remove solid wastes. Plants are placed in holes in the raft and the roots dangle freely in the water. This method is most appropriate for commercial aquaponics.

  • The second method is called media based aquaponics because plants are grown in inert planting media (gravel, expanded clay pellets, coir, etc.) and is most appropriate for home use as it requires no pre-filtration.

History of aquaponics

  • Long before the term "aquaponics" was coined in the 1970s the Aztec Indians raised plants on rafts on the surface of a lake in approximately 1,000 A.D.

  • In modern times aquaponics emerged from the aquaculture industry as fish farmers were exploring methods of raising fish while trying to decrease their dependence on the land, water and other resources.

    • Traditionally fish were raised in large ponds, or in netted pens off ocean coastlines, but in the past 35 years much progress has been made in recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS).

    • The advantage of RAS is that fish can be stocked much more densely: up to ¾ of a pound of fish per gallon of water, thus using only a fraction of the water and space to grow the same amount of fish asAquaponic raft system University of the Virgin Islandspond or netting based systems.

    • The disadvantage is the large amount of waste water that quickly accumulates.

  • In the 1970s research on using plants as a natural filter began, most notably by Dr. James Rakocy at the University of the Virgin Islands.

  • The first large scale commercial aquaponics facility, Bioshelters in Amherst, MA, was established in the mid-1980s, and it is still in operation today.

  • Home based aquaponics owes its origin in the early 1990s to Tom and Paula Speraneo of S&S Aquafarms in West Plains, MO. The Speraneo's diligently refined a media bed growing technique that was more appropriate for smaller systems, and wrote a how-to manual that became a spring board for many home based systems build through-out the world.
  • In 2005, Travis Hughey wrote the Barrel-ponics guide and made it available for free on his Faith And Sustainable Technologies website. Since then thousands of barrelponics systems have been built in the U.S.

  • Barrelponics aquaponics system Meanwhile, on the other side of the world in Australia interest in aquaponics was taking off because aquaponics is a way to solve the drought and poor soil conditions that the Australians have to contend with.

    • Joel Malcom led the movement by starting a popular forum (Backyard Aquaponics), writing a book on creating backyard aquaponic systems, and creating and selling aquaponic systems designed specifically for homeowners. Malcom currently operates a retail center called Backyard Aquaponics dedicated entirely to aquaponics in Perth, Australia and edits Backyard Aquaponics Magazine.
    • At the same time, but on the other side of the country Murray Hallam built an aquaponics company called Practical Aquaponics, with it's own forum.  Murray also created 3 very popular aquaponics videos that have helped thousands learn what they need to know to grow successfu

  • Popularization of aquaponics has grown steadily through the past decade with the most noteworthy champion being MacArthur Foundation "genius grant" award winner Will Allen of Growing Power, who has integrated aquaponics into his ultra-productive, 2 acre urban farm in Milwaukee.
  • In September 2011, "Aquaponic Gardening: A Step by Step Guide to Growing Fish and Vegetables Together" was released.  Authored by Sylvia Bernstein, published by New8108847898?profile=originalSociety Publisher, and endorsed by Mother Earth News and 22 other industry professionals this book represents the first time that a comprehensive guide to media-based aquaponics has been available.  Within two weeks of being launched it was the best selling Gardening book on Amazon.com! It is now in it's fourth printing and has been joined by a companion online course called Aquaponic Gardening Online.
  • Also in September, 2011, the first annual Aquaponics Association Conference was held in Orlando, FL.  255 people came from all over the world to meet each other, learn about aquaponic developments, and create the new Aquaponics Association.  
  •  Note ; I have ordered the Aquaponic gardening book and others. I am tired of all the poisen and GMO'S in our food and tired of bitching about it and nothing gettin done about it. Its time to take back our power. Its time to go back to the old ways of growing our own food but doing it in a more modern way, that can salve problems of space and water and lg amount of work. I think Aquaponics may be the answer to the future of mankind, however long we may be here. We must do this thing now,OK.  Adonai

THE SONG OF HOPE IN A POETS WAY

If I speak the words, would my mind get in the way?

Of the message of my soul, and what it has to convey.

The many portals of life are now opening up to all awake, 

there's  doors at every corner of the world that we make.

Its up to us to find the way, crossroads of life beckons us now,

put away your fear and learn to be in light and love somehow.

Everything is possible when your in the right space,

no turning around now, were almost in that holy place.

Where it is ,my brother,we have all been there before,

no one is left behind, and no one left standing at the door.

Open it up and let him in, it is here we shall all begin,

to learn the lessons , we repeated from our past within.

All the memories of hurt and pain is gone ,you see,

back then  when I was him and you then were me.

We did it all,over many lifetimes that were forgotten,

But this time around we become the only begotten.

Love  and Light shines on our awakened minds,

bringing to life, all those who were then left behind.

Now is the moment of all of our greatest success.

We are the winners ,because we did our very best.

So lets raise a toast to ourselves and give a cheer,

For no-one else has ever done this or even come near.

For it was the greatest challenge to all of mankind,

To overcome the evil and Fear and open our mind.

For We have saved the world and all of human life,

including ourselves, we over came all the heavy strife.

Now we can go home, if that is what we truly desire,

Or we can stay awhile, as mankind awakes on fire.

Its a bit much for those who have been sleeping long,

Guiding them back home is the name of this song.

The Idiot Box: How TV Is Turning Us All Into Zombies

 TRUTHER OCTOBER 13, 2012 

 

 

Television re-wires your mind and alters your consciousness; Studies find that children’s brains are not developing properly

Steve Watson
Infowars

TV turns you into a zombie.

While these words are more often than not used as a tiresome metaphor to highlight how much crap we are forced to endure on television today, they do in fact serve as a deadly accurate literalstatement.

Two separate studies this month alone have found that excessive amounts of television, even if it is merely on in the background, can detrimentally effect the development of children’s brains, to the point where they struggle to socially engage when they become older.

 

Add to this the already extensively documented impact that the television has on all of us, the power it has to literally alter our consciousness and shut down critical thinking, and it is no wonder that it was long ago dubbed the idiot box.

As reported by Reuters this month, researchers from the University of North Carolina Wilmington (UNCW), found that background noise emitted from television is so distracting and mesmerizing to children that it is impacting their ability to interact with other human beings and potentially slowing down cognitive thinking and language development.

The study, published in the journal Pediatrics, found that children in the US are now exposed to more than five hours a day of television. Matthew Lapierre, who led the study, explained that children who are subjected to the most TV spend less time interacting with other children and parents.

Lapierre also found that younger children are subjected to the most background television.

“This is a clear warning signal to parents that if they are not watching TV, they ought to turn it off,” said Dr. Victor Strasburger, a pediatrician from the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque who has previously studied media exposure among children. “[It is also] a reminder that parents should be avoiding screen time in infants under two.” he said.

“It’s confusing for babies who are trying to get their language together to have indistinguishable voices in the background.” Strasburger also noted, telling reporters that when parents bring their children to him, he can tell which toddlers are over exposed to TV.

“The babies that are being read to are just chattering away, and the babies that sit in front of a TV are silent,” he said. “It means their language development is threatened – they may catch up, but it’s a concern.”

In a separate study, doctors at the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health in London found that children born today will have watched a full year of television by the time they are seven years old. The study also found that on average children now spend more time watching television than they do in school.

Dr Aric Sigman published the study in the Archives Of Disease In Childhood, a medical journey jointly own by the British Medical Journal group.

Sigman noted that such extensive exposure to television can lead to a void when it comes to social relationships, can lead to attention deficit problems, and can promote significant psychological difficulties.

Sigman also noted that over exposure to new technologies such as 3D televisions and consoles could seriously affect the development of depth perception in children.

The study recommends preventing children under three years old from watching television altogether, and says that all children should be limited to less than two hours of TV per day.

“As health risks are reported to occur beyond exposure of two hours of screen time per day, although the average child is exposed to three times this amount, a robust initiative to encourage a reduction in daily recreational screen time could lead to significant improvements in child health and development.” Sigman noted.

In a report issued one year ago, the American Academy of Pediatrics pointed out that scores of previous studies have come to the same conclusions; that there is a direct link between increased TV time and developmental delays in children.

In 2010, another study published in Pediatrics, found that during analysis of over 1,000 children between the ages of ten and eleven, those who spend at least two hours a day in front of a television screen are 60 percent more likely to have psychological problems than children who spend less or no time. The study also noted that even children taking part in physical activities but still watching TV are still fifty percent more likely to suffer problems such as hyperactivity, difficulty with peers and friends, poor conduct and antisocial kinds of behavior.

Further studies published in the Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, found that children exposed to more TV are significantly more likely to exhibit aggressive behavior and perform poorly in school. In addition, the findings noted that children who watch more TV are more likely to eat more junk-food and suffer bullying at the hands of classmates – consequences that have their own brain re-wiring effects.

Other recent scientific studies have noted that many programs produced specifically for children may have even worse effects on their development because they are very fast moving, thus overtaxing the brain and promoting reduced attention span.

Owing to such proven effects of television and video games, children’s minds are being numbed before they have even developed. By the time they reach adulthood, they act according to decisions made to a great extent unconsciously. They are effectively zombies; humans operating with an impulsive, reactionary mind set, at the expense of logical analysis and critical thought.

And kids are not the only ones who are susceptible to television’s ability to create armies of the walking dead.

It is commonly known that television flicker rates induce alpha brain waves, lulling the brain into a more subconscious state that can be compared to sleep, literally inducing a type of hypnosis within the viewer that makes them more susceptible to suggestion.

This has been known since the 1960s, and was most notably proven in an experiment in 1969, by Herbert Krugman. The research, undertaken by Krugman as part of a larger project concerned with advertising, revealed that the brain’s left hemisphere, which processes information logically and analytically, effectively tunes out almost completely when an individual watches television.

The radiant light and flicker rate of television screens cause brain activity to drop toward more of a theta state. Critical thinking reduces, leaving the parts of the brain that hold memories, sensations and emotions the most active. Whatever is coming from the TV therefore somewhat bypasses the logical mind and is embedded directly into the subconscious. In other words, TV appeals more to emotions than logic.

Numerous studies have also found that flicker rates in video games cause altered consciousness. Some have been shown to reduce brain activity to below Delta frequency.

Other studies have also flagged up a link between watching too much television and Alzheimer’s disease. The semi conscious state induced by television is thought to directly contribute to the symptoms of memory, speech and perception problems.

Krugman also discovered that reading and listening to audio increases cognition and builds neuron paths because you have to think critically and envision the “theater of the mind”.

In addition, the crossover from the left to the right brain induced by watching television, causes a release of the body’s natural opiates, similar to a release of endorphins when exercising. This has the effect of making the viewer feel good. Consequently, withdrawal symptoms can kick in if viewers turn off the turn. As with any form of opiate-withdrawal, symptoms include increased anxiety, frustration, and depression.

Experiments conducted in the 1970s found that people who turn off their TVs for long periods after prolonged viewing suffer from depression, with some noting that they felt as though they had “lost a friend.”

A combination of four studies, published in the Journal of Experimental Social Psychology, concluded thattelevision shows can instill a sense of belonging in viewers with low self-esteem and a lack of social relationships. Referring to the notion as social surrogacy hypothesis, psychologists at the University at Buffalo and Miami University, Ohio, found that in order to fill the emotional void of social deprivation, some people forge relationships with fictional characters in TV shows.

TV really is the opiate of the masses.

Of course, what I describe here is only a snapshot. We are today bombarded from all angles with distractions, substances, and conditions created to transform the way we interpret our reality. We are being conditioned from birth to act increasingly without consciousness; the one thing that sets us apart from every other living thing in the known universe.

We are literally being programmed into a waking sleep, a zombie-like existence. We must act vigilantly and educate others if we are to break this programming and preserve our humanity.

BLOW UP YOUR TV.BURN UP THE VIDEO GAMES, THROW AWAY THE PAPER AND TURN OFF THE RADIO, IF YOU DON'T WANT TO GO INSANE. YOU ARE WHAT YOU PERCEIVE !!!    Rev. Joshua Skirvin,Adonai

Another Obama Executive Order Allows Seizure of Americans’ Bank Accounts

Bob Adelmann

New American
Oct 13, 2012

The latest executive order (EO) emanating from the White House October 9 now claims the power to freeze all bank accounts and stop any related financial transactions that a “sanctioned person” may own or try to perform — all in the name of “Iran Sanctions.”

Titled an “Executive Order from the President regarding Authorizing the Implementation of Certain Sanctions…” the order says that if an individual is declared by the president, the secretary of state, or the secretary of the treasury to be a “sanctioned person,” he (or she) will be unable to obtain access to his accounts, will be unable to process any loans (or make them), or move them to any other financial institution inside or outside the United States. In other words, his financial resources will have successfully been completely frozen. The EO expands its authority by making him unable to use any third party such as “a partnership, association, trust, joint venture, corporation, subgroup or other organization” that might wish to help him or allow him to obtain access to his funds.

And if the individual so “sanctioned” decides that the ruling is unfair, he isn’t allowed to sue. In two words, the individual has successfully been robbed blind.

But it’s all very legal. The EO says the president has his “vested authority” to issue it, and then references endless previous EOs, including one dating back to 1995 which declared a “state of emergency” (which hasn’t been lifted): Executive Order 12957.

EO 12957 was issued by President Bill Clinton on March 15, 1995, which was also obliquely related to the Iran “problem”:

I, William J. Clinton, President of the United States of America, find that the actions and policies of the Government of Iran to constitute an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States, and hereby declare a national emergency to deal with that threat.

Clinton’s EO further delegated such powers as were necessary to enforce the EO to the secretaries of the treasury and state “to employ all powers … as may be necessary to carry out the purposes of this order. The Secretary of the Treasury may redelegate any of these functions to other officers and agencies of the United States Government.”

Such EOs are the perfect embodiment of what the Founders feared the most: the combining of the legislative, executive, and judicial functions into one body. Article I, Section 1 of the Constitution says: “All legislative powers herein shall be vested in a Congress of the United States.” As Thomas Eddlem, writing for The New American, expressed it, “then it stands to reason [that] none is left for the president.”

But Joe Wolverton, also in The New American, pointed out the particular piece of language the Founders used to limit the powers of the president which totalitarians have twisted to allow such powers to expand: the “take care” clause, to wit: Article II, Section 3: he [the president] shall take care that the laws be faithfully executed…

With every EO, the president avoids the cumbersome constitutional safeguards spelled out by the Constitution, and uses them to implement policies he “knows” are right. Says Wolverton: “With every one of these … executive orders, then, the president elevates his mind and will above that of the people, Congress and the courts.”

The current administration has had a lot of help in justifying and codifying the legitimacy of executive orders, going all the way back to President George Washington who in 1793 issued his “Neutrality Proclamation,” which declared that the United States would remain neutral in the current conflict between France and Great Britain, and would bring sanctions against any American citizen who attempted to provide assistance to either party. The language of Washington is eerily similar to that used by President Obama in the present case:

I have therefore thought fit by these presents to declare the disposition of the United States to observe the conduct aforesaid toward those powers respectively, and to exhort and warn the citizens of the United States carefully to avoid all acts and proceedings whatsoever which may in any manner tend to contravene such disposition…

I have given instructions to those officers to whom it belongs to cause prosecutions to be instituted against all persons who shall, within the cognizance of the courts of the United States, violate the law of nations with respect to the powers at war, or any of them.

When James Madison protested Washington’s usurpation of powers not intended for the president, Congress acquiesced and passed, retroactively, the Neutrality Act of 1794, validating Washington’s usurpation.

President Lincoln engaged in similar usurpations, using presidential “directives” to run the early months of the Civil War, presenting Congress with, as Todd Gaziano put it,

the decision either to adopt his [directives] as legislation or to cut off support for the Union army.

Within his first two months in office, on April 15, 1861, Lincoln issued a proclamation activating troops to defeat the Southern rebellion and for Congress to convene on July 4.

He also issued proclamations to procure warships and to expand the size of the military; in both cases, the proclamations provided for payment to be advanced from the Treasury without congressional approval.

These latter actions were probably unconstitutional, but Congress acquiesced in the face of wartime contingencies, and the matters were never challenged in court.

President Franklin Roosevelt often overlooked the niceties of constitutional restraints as well. As Gaziano expressed it, “FDR also showed a tendency to abuse his executive order authority and [to] claim powers that were not conferred on him in the Constitution or by statute.”

As far as numbers of executive orders issued, Obama is a piker. At the moment, although the list is growing, his administration has issued only 900 or so executive orders. President Theodore Roosevelt issued 1,006 while President Woodrow Wilson issued 1,791. Even President Calvin Coolidge used the EO “privilege” 1,253 times.

The granddaddy of them all, FDR, issued an astounding 3,728 executive orders, but of course he was in office longer than Obama.

President Bill Clinton issued only 364 executive orders, but he made the most of them, using this extra-legal power to, among other things, wage war in Yugoslavia without congressional approval. Cliff Kincaid collated the numerous EOs issued by Clinton in 1998 and 1999, and concluded:

Clinton waged his war on Yugoslavia through executive order and presidential directive. Clinton used executive orders to designate a “war zone,” call up troops, proclaim a “national emergency” with respect to Yugoslavia, and impose economic sanctions on the Belgrade government.

Clinton claimed war-making presidential authority through his “constitutional authority” to conduct “foreign relations,” as “Commander in Chief” and as “Chief Executive.” Under this self-designated authority, Clinton delegated command-and-control of U.S. forces to NATO and its Secretary-General Javier Solana, who decided when the air war would be discontinued…

The most outrageous executive order of all time was that issued by President Roosevelt that allowed the enforced internment of 120,000 Japanese-Americans: 9066.

Congressman Ron Paul (R-Texas) called EOs patently unconstitutional. When asked about them by Fox News’ Megan Kelly, Paul responded:

The Constitution says that only Congress passes laws. The executive branch is not allowed to pass laws, nor should the judicial system pass laws. So it is clearly unconstitutional to issue these executive orders.

They’ve been done for a long time, both parties have done it, but the Congress is careless. They allow and encourage and do these deals … to get the president to circumvent the Congress. If something’s unpopular and he can’t get it passed, well, let’s just sign an executive order. So I think that is blatantly wrong. I think this defies everything the founders intended. I think it’s a shame that Congress does it, and I think it’s a shame that the American people put up with it.

We do think we know what it is, I believe,

A point in time, the place that we all can percieve

A personality mystery that surrounds our very being,

Coming home to find all creation that I am seeing.

 

How is it possible for this to be just thoughts in my mind,

What is it that makes me seek and want to find.

All that I can be, my heart decree's this reality,

I am you and you are me, all are one in eternity.

 

My Vision Quest hunts me, there must be more,

But why,I ask, I have been here many times before.

Don't look back to what you have been, my son,

The father says to me, see ,we have just begun.

 

To doubt is to stand still, time is ever so brief,

Look all around you, Love is such a grand relief'.

The voice inside of me, is ever so strong sometimes.

Leading me forward today in words that must rhyme.

 

Is this my real family, if so which one is me,

My evolving mind, spirit leads me forward to see.

My soul is the record keeper, or so I am told,

He presents all these scenario's, he is so bold.

 

I have a ticket, a free trip home to our destiny ,

Question is, do I want to leave this 3D reality.

I have become familiar with this pain and sorrow,

It has become my day and then my tomorrow.

 

How can I go to a place where I have never been?,

What will happen to me then,will they let me in?

My mind try's to make a nice picture for me to see,

My spirit guides light,comes and takes hold of me.

 

Where is it that you want to go ,my son,he asks,

you've already been there many times in the past.

The journey has begun, to a place not so distant,

its already inside of you, in this most holy instant.

 

Time stands still for those who are in the knowing,

The distance is short, consuming all in its flowing.

Never to turn back, except to remember who you are,

now is the time, the place, home is not so very far.

 

''Love'' is the journey that we have been on,

were it leads is to a distant shore, a knew dawn

So please Open your heart and let it all in,

because this is were it begins and never ends.

What is the true meaning behind this hide and seek game, but to remind us that we are more than what we think we are when we have lower thoughts of this so called physical reality. When we raise our thoughts we purify our dreams. What is attainable is stretched to perfection in eternity. Our mind is not only the key but the tool to reach the other side of the veil. Our Creator waits in readiness for us to take the first steps toward him so that the mind of God comes in to our mind, a mind meld of sorts.

The Creator and the Created become as one the instant that touch or contact is made. Perfection rests in our desire to become like our Creator and the higher we raise our new perception of our fathers mind the more the son’s mind is stretched. And in this exercise we soon learn to become strong. Everything we thought we knew in our old ways falls away as we lay the foundation to something new.

As the Moody Blues say, “We are all time travelers . And you have to make the journey out and in”. In God’s mansion there are many doors. Choose one and begin the journey. A journey can never start if it never begins. And in eternity there is no end. So if it never stops and never ends, where then do we begin? We have already begun the now moment when we let the truth in. There is no discovery or journey more enjoyable than the ride to our Creator’s house. Question is, is it without or is it within? The moment we open our hearts to him, the God within, then the mind meld can begin. Knock and the door shall be open. Ask and we shall receive. What is it that lies beyond our perception? Only a veil, a thin disguise or illusion that this is real and the other isn’t. There is no end in the circle of time. The veils divide our perception of what is reality. Outside of Gods mind in our mind, all is an illusion. In the first reality of God, mind is all there is.

The point of no return is set the moment we open our minds. A journey begins with the first step toward its end, an adventure of an unknown reality, soon to be explained, but not perceived in vain. One new thought leads to another. Every trip to the mansion of God, opens a new door to his mind , which in reality is in our own minds because we are connected. It is a false belief that we were separated. Nothing lost can be found if it wasn’t lost in the first place. Mispreception is in reality known as an untruth. The unknown does become known in each quest we make as we awake.

Vision is much more than sight. It is the ability to perceive what we see. There are those who can see but not perceive. Their vision quest lays dormant like a seed waiting for the water that then brings it to life. Searching then for the light, it knows it needs to survive. But soon survival is not enough. The craving to become one, not to be alone anymore, moves the embryo to begin a different life, to be or become something else not yet sure of who or what it is to be. It doesn’t know what it needs. It just knows that it needs. We all want more, not of what we are but what we can become. The name of the game is the same. To exist is not enough. To become more is our goal, of what we’re not really sure. But it comes to us when we open the door. Each new room in our father’s mansion creates a new desire to become one, one with what created it.

Never do the created then create the Creator. And only the foolish thinks he created himself. But in his fantasy he thinks he does because he has discovered something beyond himself, that which is called “love.” He doesn’t know what it really means, but only knows that he needs it. What it is he desires he is not sure. But he does know it leads him to yet another door. And in our father’s mansion there are many rooms, many gifts for us to receive, where nothing is given that can be taken away.

This is the new discord for us to comprehend. Clean the cobwebs from our minds. Each step up the ladder helps us to be able to understand. We re-create ourselves in the image of him who created us. Like the Creator who had created another image of himself, which became our mind, then spirit followed not far behind. I am aware that “I am” what I think I am, or at least I think I must be. This is more than what I think I can be, with my limited thoughts. But never the less, it’s the tool I need to be able to perceive.

I now understand I will always have thoughts when I am awake, but the dream of more is what I create. What is behind my thoughts and where do they lead? Is there more to perception than what little I perceive? Is thought just a tool to a reality beyond thoughts, to be able to just perceive, to know, to be, to experience that which created me? If we reach out to touch someone, even a good neighbor, it helps me to perceive that we are all one in this mind of the creator. We are a particle, a drop of water in the sea. Knowing there is more in the family than just “you and me,” the many parts make up the whole. But do the parts know?

Who is the designated driver, the one who will get us there? Is he lost in deep despair? Did he take a wrong turn, leading us to nowhere? Who is right and who is wrong? Should we turn around and drive ourselves back on course to where we belong? Who’s got the correct answer ? Whose vision quest, will we each follow, our own or the unknown ?

Everyone has a guide inside that has never been lost. Even though we think we know the way, if we seek the answer alone, will we go astray? And in our hurry and excitement of touching the light that shines forth, from us to another, will we stray? We can only have it when we give it away, a strange custom one might say. Yes, but there is no other way. We can try what we will and do what we may. But what it does come down to is if we want to have it, we have to give it away. What is it we ask? Can we touch it, feel it, see it, hear it, smell it or realize it in any other way? What is it that is here, then gone, only to return yet again in a different way? Why is love so elusive and so hard to get it to stay? If “God is love” then why doesn’t it just come our way? Why can’t we have it when we want to make it stay?

We think we do understand what it is, only to find out it’s more than anything we can perceive. It’s beyond words. It’s just a feeling, an experience, but crying out to be heard in thoughts that make us feel good when we hear it and say, “Love, please don’t go away. I know I don’t understand you, but I will someday. How is it that you can be ‘God,’ an energy I seek to understand some way, yet be a personality, a manifestation of a being of the utmost reality of what I think I can perceive?”

How is it possible for all these things to be just mere thoughts in my head? My mind stretches its thoughts so that I can see. What is it that I seek? Is it me? Is it the one who created me? If then we are all one that means “I am you and you are me. He is I and I am him, he who created me.” We are one in eternity. My Vision-Quest haunts me. I am a seeker who seeks to be free, as I am found only by that which I cannot see. My disbelief is in something higher than me. To doubt is to stand still observing my disbelief which seeks to fool me.

Is it that I am not strong enough to believe what my eyes refuse to see, to hear that higher voice inside of me, to share my thoughts with him that is much higher than me? Yet, it is not insane to believe that someday the two of us will become one, a sentient being, speaking to its other half. Two minds to someday become one. How is it possible all these minds are to be inside of me, unless they are part of my mind? Which one is really me?

They are my family, but only one is to be me. Two in one is to set me free, mind with a divine personality, a deity to become one with a mortal mind, to be able to experience creation through an evolving mind, with spirit as a body and soul as its record keeper. This destiny was agreed upon long ago which no one in their right mind would want to leave, a free trip home to both our creators, but only as one. When the two of us agree, his personality becomes mine as my mind wills my personality to his. We not only call him the mystery monitor, but the thought adjuster because he adjusts our thoughts to his.

The thought adjuster is behind this new message I am giving now, to share what I have found, a great spirit to reach out and touch someone. He says this is how it’s always been done. The father reaches out to his son, the higher becoming the lower. They fuse as one. Then the real journey has begun. Memory may fail as we leave the body behind but the soul records all that is worth keeping and can play it back anytime. Personality will be shared. Two become one. What more is there? Follow your heart, my son. What is told will be done. We are the ones who have begun. Never give up and we will get there. We are all one,Love is the way for all today.“Love” is the journey,here always to stay. Amen

The hope is that local Occupations and Collectives will take up the call to march, using the method of a casserole march to highlight whatever issues are the most important to their local community.

Historically, banging on a pot has been a universally understood means to gain attention. The casserole march has its origins as a means to call attention to problems facing the community that the power structure is not addressing, using a method that is hard to ignore. In the past, this form of activism has been used to draw attention to education reform, starvation, government corruption, inequality in resources, and more. 

It has been revived recently in the international Occupy and Spanish Indignatos movements, and most notably by the Student movement in Canada. Since then, it has spread worldwide. It is from these historical references and recent examples that the idea of a coordinated worldwide cacerolazo emerged. An international showing of frustration and unrest on a global scale that would be hard to ignore. A GlobalNoise.

Get involved now with the planning to make some noise for social justice!

Yahoo Gremlin Causing Mischief; Just Ignore Him

Folks, we do know about the mischief that an individual at Yahoo! is causing by rejecting messages that originate with me or the 2012 Scenario site, preventing people from sending them to Yahoo! groups, etc.

One prominent operator of a well-known distribution list writes:

“Yahoo Groups is refusing to deliver your messages, which I copied and pasted into a new message, this time from the World Peace [Achieving World Peace Now!]  site. I don’t know how to circumvent this. But I thought this morning’s message was well worth sharing, but evidently Yahoo doesn’t think so. It refused 3 Yahoo groups lists, or maybe it’s just your messages they are boycotting. I haven’t a clue. So far, no one else’s messages have been targeted.”

What Archangel Michael had to say about the situation in Monday’s An Hour with an Angel is posted below.

What do we intend to do about it? Nothing.

The trouble is only temporary and is being handled as we speak. I assume the gentleman will find himself bombarded with love and stop at some point.  No, not the Love Boat. The Love Box.

If a document is intended to be circulated, it will be.  An idea whose time has come, like world peace, cannot be stopped or even impeded by acts of opposition such as this gentleman’s.

However it does mean that you may have to reset your Yahoo! password (I have to do that as well; my Yahoo! account has also stopped functioning) and it may mean that you have to resubscribe to this site. It will also mean that some things you try to circulate from this site may be blocked by Yahoo!.

And it also may mean that, if you want to post something to a Yahoo! group from me or this site, you may have to go to the Yahoo! group site and do it from there, rather than emailing it in.

But you also don’t have to do any of that. Why?

Well, as AAM has said, these ideas that are expressed don’t even have to be read to have impact. They enter the collective consciousness and their influence spreads out from there. Moreover they influence by the Law of Attraction. And they have the impact of freeing the hands of the Company of Heaven, which operates by respecting the Law of Freewill. If they express the popular will, for sure the folks in the rafters, as Poof calls them, take heed and act on them.

There is no stopping what is happening now. Very soon we’ll see events that will have our eyeballs rolling and the time of separation will see those who resist them simply fall away. So just be patient a little while longer and these annoyances will pass.

Here’s what AAM said about the gentleman in question:

Steve Beckow: Lately we’ve been having a lot of trouble on the 2012 Scenario with our daily digest. 500 subscribers at a time are dropped. Is Yahoo censoring the 2012 Scenario site?

Archangel Michael: From time to time, yes.

SB: What is their motivation? What is their reason for that?

AAM: It is not really a motivation at all. It is more a case of a single individual. Do not worry. It’s being taken care of.

SB: Could you just explain that a bit more?

AAM: When you think of organizations, whether it is any of these social media, there are certain flags that are raised now and then — and certainly the 2012 Scenario has raised many flags over the years! — and then it is at the discretion of what you can think of as managers, technicians, to either proceed or simply let things flow.

So what has happened in this situation — and it is an isolated situation time-wise and content-wise — is that you have irritated or challenged the belief systems of an individual.

SB: Okay. I know you don’t like to judge people or name people, so I’ll let it go there. (1)

THE 3DDD and the 3-stooges that we spoke of in part one, represent the most serious negative Agenda of the mostly invisible empire that was to be. And the most invisible of these 3 is the ''Visitors'' whom we have only recently discovered, that is for most of us. And they were presented to us by our newly found friends ''The Friends of Humanity''. I re-posted there 7 briefings last wk and outlines yesterday. So that we can become familiar not only with the new found friends but our newly found enemy or adversary, who's Agenda is also to take us over. We also discussed how powerful there group mind is, we call the collective or hive mind. And most importantly how they are able to imitate  and copy almost verbatim our precious masters and ET friends who have been channelling to us for many yrs now. And of course they also have there own minions such as Candice who regularly channell there dis-info down to us. Not only do they copy and insert there false info as the real thing but they infiltrate the real thing. Causing must conflict, arguing and general bickering amongst the light-workers themselves on this and other forums of love and light that recieves mostly channelled material.

 This has become a very serious problem as it is dividing the light workers against each other and it is  not understandable to the newly awakened ones, who become lost and conflicted in all of the false flags and Disclosures that never materialize. The positive aspect of this conflict  is the lessons of Discernment learned from all the false events that never took place. Until that time, most of us were fooled into thinking that although the material seemed to change irregularly and the thought patterns were not the same but things were still Ok, But in reality they were mixing truths with untruths, which most of allowed to happen, but when too many false events and Disclosure took place we began to become greatly disappointed and it only grew worse. Of course the biggest question was why, why did our so called friends tell us certain events would happen on certain dates and when they didn't take place they blamed it on us. Of course that rocked many peoples boat and again the question was why. And every so often the real entities whom they were imitating would mention that it wasn't them but did not go into detail about it, which of course left us even more frustrated. But by now we were begining  to see that something else was up or rather someone else was involved.

And still the question was why, why would they do it, what was in it for them. When we asked those questions we hit the right buttons, By asking the right questions our minds began to search for the correct answer. Some one or group was playing with our minds ,playing dirty tricks on us, planting lies and disceptions into our most secrared  texts , the channelled materials from higher Dimensions than us. The answers came slowly at first from the first question of why would they keep decieving us in lies. Finally the answer came to some of us. It was to cause division and conflict, to make us not believe in the entities or channelled materials from the ones we have been  following for many yrs. In essence they took away our teachers for now we could no longer believe in them. And to slowing bring in tere own Agenda. Why didn't our teachers do something to stop it, besides saying it wasn't them. This conflict still persists today, as many refuse to believe that some if not many of the channeled materials weve been getting on a daily rate has been infiltrated by the enemy and unseen force who is extremly clever at pretending to be our real teachers from beyond. Others have stopped reading most of them like myself, but we do go back because we need to sort them out, we need to find out who they are , what there Agenda is and how to,bring them down. This my firends is the real ''Disclosure'' that we have been waiting for'

Disclosure of this kind, impacts our minds on a level that we have never played before. This mind games have sent us for a loop , that is until we learn what to look for and that job is mostly up to us Elders who have been around for awhile and are able to discern the truths from the untruths. Not that its not possible for the others to do it , they should! But we Elders must step up and say what we think is really going on here. And keep in mind that it is still going on to some degree but they have recieved a blow from us, that has knocked them down as we commented back to them that we don't believe them any more and we want them out and many did leave. The most strongest of these was Greg Giles channelling the GFL. He recieved so much slack and feedback that he and the ''Visitors'' had to step back and finally he quit. Then the info of the ''Visitors'' began to hit this site. I had read it before over the yrs but didn't give it that much credit until it all happened. Then it all made sence, when the ''Allies of Humanity'' brought forth this info on the Visitors and what there real Agenda was. So they divided us, A house divided in itself cannot stand (JC) they turned us against each other and they turned us against those who are channelling to us , as we don't know just who to believe any more. One way to desern if it is the good guys or the bad ones is to see how the message flows. Those who plant dis-info do it a certain way. They say a lot of good thing and maybe even beautiful or spiritual things, then when they have got you to let your guard down on your discernment, they implant some negative info or untruths or even out and out lies in between the other so that ou except this along with the rest of the material. 

So now we must learn greater Discernment on par with the professionals. We need to see the bigger picture here. I will give you an example here; A couple of wks ago the ''Visitors infiltrated one of my favorite channeling ''The Arcturian group'' One of the things that they talked about is the ''Con-federation'' which I am not even sure that they exist or if they do they are not our friends per say. They then said that the BUDDA was installed as the Planetary Prince when Jesus left earth. Of couse we all know that they would not put in a leader or master that did not believe in God the father our Creator. Buddist beieve in lessor gods but not in a creator, so this is false info. Then there is those minions of the ''Vistors who know that they are working with and are putting out false info materials like ''Drake the Fake'' and more like Candice who runs a 3DD fear blog every two yrs ,that was brought to our knowlede by Kelly. Upon investgating this futher Candance is one htere minions who push the idea of Jesus having married and 5 kids. The DC call this black lodge today  ''the Priory of Zion. The idea is to get us to believe that there are decendents of Jesus and Creator Michael .And that these family of Zion are speacial people who have a right to rule us, because of there DNA. Of couse we all know better than this. As it was strictly forbidden by the Creators Father'' the Eternal son'' for Michael to leave offsprings here, that they would be worshiped and could even create a negative world gov't. So the story of Jesus marring Mary Madeline is truly false

Then of couse she and her friend Alex H. from the poor web. site ''the light workers'' also pushed along with others the even greator false story of  Christ Michael Aton. At first I excepted it because I thought that maybe it did come from the Creator himself. There was many truths in those many blogs about the universe but I found untruths when they say all of the Michael sons are Creators and have Created thousands of universes. Of course anyone who has studied the ''Urantia Book'' knows that there is only 49 created univeses, 7 in each super universe. Then there was other problems such as his name ATON, there is no mention of  the last name of ''Aton'' in the UB. They claimed that the reason why is that he just now took on the name as a short for ''Hantonn''. And that he was now in a tall gray alien body and the Commander of the ''Con-Federation Fleet''. The real Creator Michael has always incarnated in the body form of the beings that reside on the planet that he visits in what ever Dimension. So that is false. And it is more likely that the name came from En-ki and or his Brother who may be a part of the Collective of the ';Visitors'' and the word Aton refered to them as Annunaki's who supposedly ruled out world before the Reptilians took over. The word Aton meant ''Lord or Ruler as a demi-God. And there is much false records left behind by them s to there creating humans from there DNA and that they would someday return to there Creation. So this is again a connection in this false info and its agenda is for us to except all of this as truths so that they may twist it a little more each time that they present it to us and eventually turn things all around to there favor and there end agenda of taking us over next.                                               Part-3-TM.

This new Jesus movement should and does make one feel good inside. Fulfilling our mission is our real purpose of life. Finding a way to share it, now that feels good. Knowing everything is going to turn out all right and that my purpose in life is special. Love, Joy, peace, happiness, harmony, safety, family, that’s what this kingdom movement is really all about. A journey without distance.

God works in mysterious ways. There’s still more to say. “Spiritual reality” will always stand the test of time because true information doesn’t change in time and everything less than truth evolves to truth or into nothingness from which it came. Since we are evolving as well, we must change and acknowledge all that is not truth in our lives.

One way to determine if some information is true or the truth is to see if it feels good in our heart center. If it does, then the information has a lot of truth in it. If not, release it from memory (as possible untruth). Second, check to see if the so called truth can be applied to our lives in positive ways. If not, let it go. Third, see if it fits in the puzzle we have all recreated called life or what we think life is. Fourth, see if it can be expanded and still remain true. Fifth, see if it helps or makes us grow toward our Creator.

All truth evolves from the creator and does return there. All things that truly come from God are true or the truth. Everything else is man made or spirit made. One could write a book about truths and all the many kinds of truths, such as part truths, something that is partly true. Then there’s truth that only applies in certain situations or conditions, almost like it can change form or something.

Then there are truths that have been taken out of context. So are they still truths? That depends. Sometimes truths must have other truth’s surrounding them to make them true and when we put truths in with or surrounded by untruths, then what do we get? We get dis-information, which is a tool the dark side uses to fool us. They use our established religions to insert untruths into them or the new religions borrow untruths from others sources like the occults, to fit their new paradigm.

Remember that religion’s biggest problem is the same one as our society, power. The leaders want to retain their power over the people or “followers.” The Anti-Christ uses this tool in the same way, but goes one step further and steals people’s power away from them which the dark side feeds upon.

So everyone should become a truth seeker, and true spirituality or “spirit reality” should teach just that, nothing but the truth and the whole truth. Many more new truths are being sent down to us as we now once again come to an end of an age. These new truths are to help us over to the other side of the veil. But if we still don’t recognize what the truth is, we wont’ grow. If we hold onto our old untruths and still want to believe them as truths because it’s easier than to change, then we too will fade away with those old untruths, and then we have to start over again and miss the Ascension.

As I said before, it’s like school here. When we remember our schooling we start out in first grade, and learn the basics of the rules for change. Later as we learn to read we move up the ladder to second through fourth grade through sixth grade, etc. Then we go to junior high and high school and beyond, hopefully. And all that we learned in those lower grades no longer applies to the next grade. It was just a foundation for learning.

If we go back and read those books again, we will think that they are silly, maybe even nonsense, and not necessarily untrue but that they don’t apply to us anymore. They were just tools to get us to the next level and the next, moving on. We keep graduating as we keep learning. And to keep learning we have to let go of the old information that we called truths then. And the more we let go, together with the new information we take in, the more we grow.

There is a two fold problem though. First, in the higher grades we attained dis-information and were taught and told that they were truths. As a rebel and a warrior in many lives, I rebelled against what was taught to me as truths because they were not true. And now as a man and a spiritual light warrior, I still rebel against what is taught as truths if they are not true. But if they are small truths that can someday, hopefully, become truths then I embrace them, to be able to build my own library of truths. I don’t read any books that would go against my basic truths. I recognize untruths for what they are and I file them away to the trash department for we must keep our minds clean and pure. And the only way to have a pure and, someday, holy mind like our creator is to discern what is the truth, large and small, part and whole.

The second problem is that people reach a certain grade, maybe even finish high school or even college, and think that now the learning is over. They are now programmed and ready to become part of society, the nine to fivers, or so they think. Now we have another two fold problem.

First is the programming we received is maybe untrue in many parts. They have programmed us with truths and untruths combined together. So what happens then? We have a split mind. Jesus said a house divided amongst it’s self cannot stand. This presents many difficulties in our lives. As we become adults, we can’t seem to get our heads together. We can’t find peace. Peace of mind is what they say. To have peace of mind we must have all information categorized as truths, small or large, but they must harmonize. They must work together. If not, we cannot attain peace. (See the chapters on deprogramming.) After we learn to deprogram, then we can reprogram ourselves with “spiritual reality,” truths, which are given to us as a gift from our Creator Father Michael.

The second problem lies in the idea that we can stop growing after we finish school. But this life, this world, is school so we must now continue to grow. Schooling, or education as they call it, doesn’t stop when we graduate or leave as I did, but it’s a basic foundation. It’s not so much what we learn in school, because so much of it is untrue, but we should use it as a stepping stone for life. In other words, it’s a foundation for us to just learn how to learn , not so much of what we learn. Once we learn how to learn, and by that I mean to be able to discern truths from untruths, then we move on up the ladder and continue to grow.

We must let go of most or a lot of what we learned in school and in church. Learn to discern the truths, and build upon that. Recognize the new spiritual truths being handed down to us to use in our everyday lives to help us learn how to be able to cope with the stress of lies, deceit and untruths laid upon us daily by the media, church, schools, governments, etc. We can and must now learn to take our power back, to “reprogram” ourselves with the divine information and truths that are now flooding our book stores and the web.

There’s a really great amount of information and truths being sent down to us now to help us through this transition stage. As I mentioned before, Jesus says we are crazy because we live and was born in a crazy world, one not of our making but because of the old Lucifer Rebellion which is hopefully now dying out. And great damage has been done to our world and society as we know it. Much repair is now needed. Many volunteers are asked to come forward, to learn to forgive and forget so we can heal the mind.

“Spiritual reality” is really all there is. Everything else is just an illusion. Untruths are not real. Dis-information is not real. This world we see now is not real. It’s someone’s dream. We must ask ourselves who controls our dreams. Do we or is there someone or something else controlling us? Are we puppets on a string? Do we have the power to control our future and our everyday present life, or is someone else doing it? We, or at least many, have become numb, overwhelmed with lies, untruths, deceit, dis-information, all designed to cause havoc and fear in our lives. Even the church contributes to it. Established religion is supposed to come to the rescue, but instead they’re often part of the problem and not the cure. There is only one cure.

The cure is to awaken, to remember who we really are, not what we are told or programmed to be, to take our power back, to be of one mind, to be of one spirit and body called the Brotherhood. All that we need to know is already inside of us. We are all one. We are not separate, never have been. It’s all part of a conspiracy. And now we can and must take over. By that I mean we must change our lives, ourselves. Yes, we can be saved. God has bestowed great mercy upon us. He has brought down and channeled a huge amount of information and truths to awaken us. If we can accept it, we can change ourselves and in so doing change the world. That’s what the “spiritual reality” is really all about, taking back our power to become part of the “Brotherhood” by sharing, forgiving and helping our brothers and sisters in this large family, also called the Kingdom of God.

It all depends on us. It grows and expands by us or through us, not only on this earth planet but throughout the whole universe and into eternity. We are all one. Let us now remember and awaken to the peace, joy, love, happiness of God within. “I rule my mind which I alone must rule ” is an affirmation prayer by Jesus.

God is pure mind. We are created in his image. Then our minds awaken. We only use the brain for storage. God is pure thought. When we purify our thoughts we become like him, one with our creator. But we can’t come home until we purify our mind. God’s mind is in our mind, when we ask him in. We are in God’s mind, when we purify our thoughts.

It is in a pure state of mind that our oneness becomes conscious of itself. Maintaining pure thought creates the oneness of mind that was forgotten and lost in time. Eternity exists so we can have enough time to create a pure mind through pure thought, if only for a moment. A holy instant created the beginning of creation, touching Creator.

Oneness doesn’t just happen. It is created out of our desire to be one with our Creator. When we think in these terms, our minds become like our Creator, creating an image of itself through its perfect mind. However, we are unable to maintain this train of thought for any length of time. We open a veil, a sort of door, into another dimension or level of consciousness, a reality yet unknown to us.

We may call it a Paradigm shift, a jump into the unknown from whence there is a return passage. Every new path that is discovered must be marked so we know or learn how to return their again. We seem to always be pulled back here to this so called reality, which soon seems more like a dream the more we enter this paradigm shift or veil. The illusions of this world soon start to fade away like a day dream. The veils are doors that are opened when we let go of our doubts and disbelief. Our perceptions are raised to new heights as we perceive new realities that we have not known before but yet some how are familiar to us in this new paradigm shift. Dimensions blend to together as one, as our minds are stretched to its maximum trying to understand what it is that we are seeing and perceiving. We are trying to find a new category or shelf to put all of this in.

There must be a way to sort it all out so that it makes sense and we can use these new Truths to move up yet another step on the ladder of life. Much like our bodies, the sayings use it or loose it is true. The more we use our mind and exercise it the stronger it gets and the more it is able to do. The real question is what do you wont to do with it. Awakening is the name of the game. Attaining Super-consciousness allows one to be able to become anything, like its Creator. That is our true vision quest, to re-create ourselves in the image of our Creator!

Genetically Modified Foods,''Depopulation,''& Prop.37

 TRUTHER OCTOBER 9, 2012 

 

In earlier times it was easier to control a million people than physically to kill a million people. Today it is infinitely easier to kill a million people then to control a million people. – Zbigniew Brzezinski (CFR, Trilateral Commission, Bilderberg, Carter/Obama Advisor).

  1.  Paul Adams, J.D.
    AP

    Research and studies demonstrate thatGenetically Modified (GM) foods potentially serve two purposes, neither of which is to feed the starving masses or increase crop yield on a long-term basis. Instead, the purposes of GM foods appear to be those of a bad science-fiction nightmare:

     
    1. Reduce the human population by poisoning the food supply, causing increases in cancer, inflammation, disease, organ failure and premature death. At the same time, using food to covertly render the population infertile.
  2. Give a handful of elites and the companies they control complete control over the world’s food supply.

As Henry Kissinger said, “If you control the oil you control the country; but if you control the food, you control the population.” Joseph Stalin agreed and is infamous for starving millions of people to death and submission.

With their accomplices at the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and within governments, a few corporate giants and their major investors are responsible for much of the damage, destruction, and injuries caused by GM foods.

Monsanto and Dow Chemical manufacture GM seeds and toxic herbicides such as Roundup (Glyphosate). These two corporations also produced Agent Orange herbicide. Vietnam estimates 400,000 people were killed or maimed, and 500,000 children born with birth defects as a result of Agent Orange. The Red Cross of Viet Nam estimates that up to 1 million people are disabled or have health problems due to Agent Orange.

Dow Chemical was also the manufacturer of Napalm, which was used to burn the skin off children like Phan Thi Kim Phuc.

Why are these corporate criminals being allowed to take over the world’s food supply? Money and corruption would be the obvious answers, but after reviewing the evidence objectively and without cognitive dissonance, depopulation and control over the world’s food supply prove more likely.

Studies Prove GM Foods and Roundup Lethal

The recent and long-term French study from the University of Caen found that eating genetically modified corn and consuming trace levels of Monsanto’s Roundup chemical fertilizer caused rats to develophorrifying tumorswidespread organ damage, and premature death. This study has been deemed “the most thorough research ever published into the health effects of GM food crops and the herbicide Roundup on rats.”

The study found:

  • Up to 50% of males and 70% of females suffered premature death.
  • Rats that drank trace amounts of Roundup (at levels legally allowed in the water supply) had a 200% to 300% increase in large tumors.
  • Rats fed GM corn and traces of Roundup suffered severe organ damage including liver damage and kidney damage.
  • The study fed these rats NK603, the Monsanto variety of GM corn that’s grown across North America and widely fed to animals and humans. This is the same corn that’s in your corn-based breakfast cereal, corn tortillas and corn snack chips.

The study caused Russia to ban imports of U.S. GM corn due to the cancer risk. France and most of Europe have effectively banned feeding GM crops to humans and Monsanto was found guilty of ‘chemical poisoning’ earlier this year.

 In the Unites States, one in two men and one in three women get cancer. What role does GM corn and soy play, which are common in most processed foods?

Walmart sells GM corn to its customers without labeling it as such.

Russian biologist Alexey V. Surov, and his colleagues were determined to discover if Monsanto’s genetically modified soy, grown on 91% of US soybean fields, leads to problems in growth or reproduction.

They found that after feeding hamsters for two years over three generations, those on the GM diet, and especially the group on the maximum GM soy diet, showed devastating results. By the third generation, most GM soy-fed hamsters lost the ability to have babies. They also suffered slower growth, and a high mortality rate among the pups.

Scientific studies have linked Monsanto’s GM corn to organ failure.

Other studies have linked GM foods to cancer. Monsanto’s GM-derived rBGH (which is a genetically-alteredgrowth hormone given to dairy cows to make them more milk) was shown to increase the production of IGF-1 from 70-1000%. IGF-1 is a very powerful hormone that has been linked to a 2.5-4 times higher incidence of human colon, breast and prostate cancer.

Even Monsanto’s employees refuse to eat GM foods.

As the Health Ranger opined, GM foods appear to be the new Thalidomide, that morning sickness drug from the late 1950s that was quickly recalled for its deadly side effects.

It must also be noted that world famous researchers that expose the dangers of GM foods are routinelythreatened, fired, ostracized and their findings denied by questionable “experts” with conflicts of interest. Studies proving GM food health risks are also routinely rejected by bought-and-paid-for government officials.

For many years Jeffrey Smith has been exposing the dangers of GM foods combined with government corruption. Much of his research can be viewed at the Institute for Responsible Technology.

GMO Corruption and Conflicts of Interest

Why are foods that contain GM ingredients allowed to be sold in the U.S. and Canada without a warning or disclaimer? Corruption.

The global elite and their political puppets tell the public that toxic GM food is safe while they themselves are obsessed with eating only organic foods. It is well known that the Clintons, Bush family, Romney family and Obamas try to eat only organic foods.

Dozens of FDA scientists warned that GM crops were dangerous and different from traditional crops only to be disregarded by their superiors such as Michael Taylor at the FDA.

Michael Taylor was an attorney at King & Spalding that started working for Monsanto in 1981. In 1991 he filled the newly created post of Deputy Commissioner for Policy at the FDA. During that time, he signed the Federal Register notice stating that milk from cows treated with Bovine Growth Hormone (BGH) did not have to be labeled as such. Between 1996 and 2000, after briefly returning to King & Spalding, he then returned to Monsanto to become Vice President for Public Policy. In June of 2000 he joined the think tank Resources for the Future in the position of Senior Fellow and Director of RFF’s Center for Risk Management, where he published two documents on U.S. aid for African agriculture, both of which were funded by the Rockefeller Foundation, known for financing Nazi eugenics. In 2009 Taylor returned to government as Senior Advisor to the FDA Commissioner and on in 2010 was appointed to FDA Deputy Commissioner for Foods. In other words, the fox is guarding the chickens.

Dozens of high ranking government officials, including Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, have ties with Monsanto. However, it could be argued that Barack Obama may be Monsanto’s number one lobbyistbecause he filled many key USDA and FDA posts with Monsanto minions.

But don’t expect the other side of the false left vs. right divide and conquer paradigm to save you; Mitt Romney is also a Monsanto stooge:

The Nation’s investigative report has uncovered how Mitt Romney personally helped Monsanto shed its string of toxic chemical-related scandals and reinvent itself to dominate American agriculture. Monsanto, an early Bain & Company client, was so impressed with Romney that they started bypassing his superiors to deal with him directly. Romney’s close relationship with then CEO John Hanley prompted his boss to create Bain Capital to keep Romney from leaving and taking their largest consulting client with him.

Whole Foods has been caught in a scandal because its employees are trained to tell customers the grocery chain sells only organic foods. In fact, Whole Foods also sells toxic GM foods.

Whole Foods co-founder and CEO John Mackey donated to Mitt Romney, who helped promote Monsanto’s entry into biotechnology, while co-CEO Walter Robb donated to Barack Obama, who has appointed numerous Monsanto lobbyists to his administration, as well as Christie Vilsack, the wife of USDA chief Tom Vilsack, who as an Iowan politician, has bent over backward for biotech, GMOs, cloning and even the open-air growing of pharmaceutical crops.

The GM food issue has once again revealed that the mainstream media is a corporate whore easily purchased by the ugliest and most degenerate Johns. “In recent editorials, nine more California newspapers joined the growing list of publications urging voters to oppose Proposition 37 [requiring that GM foods be labeled as such) on the November ballot.” At least 29 mindless and corrupt newspapers endorse voting no on Proposition 37.

Unfortunately, Matt Drudge, the undisputed king of online news with his Drudge Report, has accepted advertising from the vote no on Proposition 37 campaign and features such ads regularly. Therefore Drudge, just like the corporate whore media oligarchy, has revealed himself as a modern day Judas Iscariot who sold-out his family, country and humanity to a group of psychopathic eugenicists hell-bent on poisoning thefood supply in their Malthusian quest to reduce the population.

The Depopulation Agenda

It is no longer a secret that the global elites’ endgame is to reduce the human population by 80-95 percent. They even build monuments like the Georgia Guidestones stating such. What better way could there be than to poison the food supply without people knowing it? Profit and depopulation.

Prominent university Professors such as Eric Pianka and Richard Cardullo openly crave depopulation.

Obama’s top science and technology advisor John P. Holdren, advocated the formation of a “planetary regime” that would use a “global police force” to enforce totalitarian measures of population control, including forced abortions, mass sterilization programs conducted via the food and water supply, as well as mandatory bodily implants that would prevent couples from having children.

So-called think tanks such as The Royal Society and Club of Rome call for depopulation and/or tyrannical government to restrict human activity, for the earth of course.

World Bank guidelines dictate that in order to qualify for World Bank lending, sovereign nations must implement population reduction objectives as outlined by the World Bank and UN Population Fund. If they refuse, lending will be withdrawn.

Even mainstream publications such as TIME magazine and the Journal of Medical Ethics are conditioning the public to accept mass death.

Unfortunately there is no shortage of the elitists and their organizations calling for humans to be forcibly or covertly culled. They want democide yet refuse to lead by example by starting with themselves.

Despite their own large families, billionaires such as David Rockefeller, Ted Turner, and Bill Gates openly discuss the need to reduce the population and fund programs to do just that.

Eugenicist Bill Gates, purchased 500,000 shares in Monsanto in 2010 valued at more than $23 million. The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation also supports Planned Parenthood, best known for millions of abortions. Bill Gates’ father even served on the board of Planned Parenthood. In 2000, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation provided the International Planned Parenthood Federation $8.8 million.

Planned Parenthood also receives financial support from the federal government, many millionaires, corporations and foundations, including the Rockefeller, Ford and Carnegie foundations and billionaire investor Warren Buffet’ s foundation. Planned Parenthood performed 332,278 abortions in the United States in 2009. That is about as many as the 333,012 people who lived in the city of Cincinnati, Ohio, in 2009, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.

Bill Gates and the Rockefeller foundation also invest heavily in vaccine research for the purposes of sterilizing populations. Gates openly promotes using vaccines to lower the population. While investing with the hope that most of humanity will eat toxic GM foods, Bill Gates decided to also invest some $30 million in a doomsday seed vault on the Barents Sea near the Arctic Ocean. His investment partners include theRockefeller Foundation, Monsanto, Syngenta Foundation (Swiss-based major GMO seed and agrichemicals company), DuPont/Pioneer Hi-Bred (one of the world’s largest owners of patented genetically-modified plant seeds and related agrichemicals).

The vault has dual blast-proof doors with motion sensors, two airlocks, and walls of steel-reinforced concrete one meter thick. It will contain up to three million different varieties of seeds from the entire world, ‘so that crop diversity can be conserved for the future.’ Seeds will be specially wrapped to exclude moisture.

Why do these eugenicists and corporations need a seed vault if GM foods and seeds are safe?

The Rockefeller Foundation has been investing in biotechnology for decades in hopes of conquering the world food supply in a similar fashion as they did to medicineoilbanking and education.

Based on their history and current ambitions of depopulation, do you want the Gates and Rockefeller foundations determining what foods your family should eat?

As the Health Ranger says, GM food may be the new and improved Zyklon B 2.0. Rather than rounding up billions of people and forcing them into chambers (“showers”) before gassing them to death as the Nazis did, GM food victims will pay to purchase their poison and never know why they have cancer and are sterile. After all, the USDA and FDA say GMOs are safe, so it must be true! If Hitler had GMO technology, he would have fed GM corn to the Jews and not even bothered with the trouble of constructing gas chambers.

GM food is like a bait trap for ants or cockroaches. The ant or roach enters the trap, takes the food, and brings it back to the colony which then dies. Toxic GM food works in a similar fashion – mom buys unlabeled GM food at the grocery store, brings it home, and the family eats it. Cancer, infertility and premature death could become abundant based on independent studies.

Here it must be noted that according to at least one study, Glyphosate (toxic ingredient in Monsanto’s Roundup herbicide) is found in all urine samples. Roundup is sprayed on GM crops and has been linked tobirth defects in unborn children. Roundup is also linked to “reproduction problems” and one study found “the herbicide caused an 86-percent decline in the total population of tadpoles.”

California Proposition 37 – Require GM Food Labeling

California Proposition 37 is the wooden stake that California voters can drive through the GM food industry’s criminal corporate hearts on November 6th. If passed, it will require that products containing GM foods be labeled, which is akin to placing a skull and cross bones on the product. Because very few people are willing to knowingly eat GM foods, products containing them will likely be forced by consumer demand to replace GM ingredients to healthier and natural alternatives.

Proposition 37 is a ballot initiative, meaning that over 1,000,0000 people signed a petition to have labeling GM foods placed on the election ballot.

Dr. MercolaNature’s Path and other great supporters of humanity support California Proposition 37financially. They believe that GM foods should be labeled as they are in most of Europe, Russia, China, Japan, Australia, Brazil, India and many other countries.

There are dozens of reasons to support Proposition 37 and Californians can get more information athttp://www.carighttoknow.org/. If approved by voters, the labeling initiative would make California the first state in the nation to require labels on genetically engineered crops or processed foods, such as corn, soybeans, sugar beets and Hawaiian papayas. Other states would likely follow.

Proposition 37 opponents have raised more than $32.5 million while Yes on 37 campaign had raised $3.5 million. Despite the financial disparity, Proposition 37 is expected to pass by more than a 2-to-1 margin.

Who would oppose informing consumers that their food has been genetically modified? Below is a list of the top ten contributors to the No on 37 campaign, which is trying to stop GMO labeling in California:

1) Monsanto Company, St. Louis, MO, $7,100,500
2) E.I. DuPont De Nemours & Co., Washington, DC, $4,900,000
3) BASF Plant Science, Research Triangle Park, NC, $2,000,000
4) Bayer CropScience, Research Triangle Park, NC, $2,000,000
5) Dow Agrosciences LLC, Indianapolis, IN, $2,000,000
6) PepsiCo, Inc., Purchase, NY, $1,716,300
7) Nestle USA, Inc., Glendale, CA, $1,169,400
8) Coca-Cola North America, Atlanta, GA, $1,164,400
9) ConAgra Foods, Omaha, NE, $1,076,700
10) Syngenta Corporation, Washington, DC, $1,000,000

Every one of these companies has a critical stake in making sure that you do not know what is in the food you eat because they either produces GMOs or uses GMOs in their product formulations.

Additionally, the companies behind some of the biggest organic brands in the country — Kashi, Cascadian Farm, Horizon Organic oppose GM labeling and Proposition 37.

Conclusion

Independent studies reveal that GM crops are capable of reducing the population by causing increased rates of cancer, organ failure, disease and sterility. GM crops are supported by a small group of billionaires who desire a monopoly of control over the world’s food supply and population. The elite themselves are obsessed with eating organic foods.

As Mike Adams says, the GMO debate is over. There is no longer any legitimate, scientific defense of growing GM crops for human consumption. Anyone eating GMO is slowly committing suicide.

GM foods must be abolished and the first step is ensuring that California Proposition 37 passes. This will also send a message to Bill Gates, the Rockefellers, and the global elite’s corporate crime syndicate that their war on humanity is far from over and that they are simply flawed men, who despite their financial wealth gained through usury and fraud, will never accomplish their “great work” of complete world control.

One man, Percy Schmeiser, defeated Monsanto and saved his farm. Surely 40 million Californians can defeat Monsanto and the other GM food makers this November by passing Proposition 37.

Paul Adams is your humble servant and strongly recommends reading: “Doomsday Seed Vault” in the Arctic – Bill Gates, Rockefeller and the GMO giants know something we don’t.
