As I type this, I am complicit in the funding of rape and war. You probably are too–sitting on your laptop, listening to your mp3 player, texting on your smartphone–even if you don’t know it.
But that could all change with the passing of Barack Obama’s sweeping financial reform legislation by Congress in July. While the story made headlines across the United States and pundits and politicians debated its potentia... read more | categories: crime and politics, activism

One woman said children as young as 10 working in the fields developed red rashes on their stomachs and necks as they harvested tobacco for use in cigarettes made by Philip Morris.

|  | DARPA Wants Instant, On-Demand Airstrikes, Removing Middlemen from the Bomb-Dropping Process
Like renewing your driver's license at the DMV or getting someone from the cable company out to your place, calling in close air support can be a real process for troops on the ground. A request for an air strike from a commander on the ground goes through various higher-ups, analysts, lawyers, and other commanders, slowing the response time to a crawl. That's why DARPA is launching the Persistent Close Air Support P... read more | categories: crime and politics
|  | Gilgul Neshamot - Reincarnation of Souls
The subject of gilgul neshamot, the reincarnation of souls, is not mentioned explicitly in the Torah. In the Zohar, on the other hand, in Parashat Mishpatim, under the title Saba deMishpatim (the Old Man or the Grandfather of Parashat Mishpatim), the secrets of reincarnation are discussed at length. They are then further expanded upon by the Ari HaKadosh, Rabbi Yitzhak Luria, in a book dedicated to this subject, Shaa... read more | categories: spirit
|  | The Playstation War - part 4
Eastern Congo’s perpetual burden—proxy wars fought over the region’s rich natural resources—lurks in the forest nearby. I’ve covered this region for the past few years and am reminded of the fragility of this “civilization.” In late 2008 and early 2009, I watched as war raged through the region, displacing hundreds of thousands, and killing and traumatizing thousands more. Just months ago, armed militias massacred ci... read more | categories: crime and politics

The PlayStation War
The morning brings sun and market day in Kibua. The village center fills with people and the sounds of commerce. Women meet and gossip; Congolese national army soldiers mingle through the crowd and flirt with the girls. MONUC peacekeepers watch over the bustle and Major Panwar tells me, “Since we’ve been here, over the last six months or so, the local population has increased to approximately 6,0... read more | categories: crime and politics, activism

In late June, 2009, peacekeepers of MONUC’s India Battalion One (INDBAT One) arrived in Kibua, only to find a remaining local civilian population of approximately 2,000 civilians. “When we started foot patrols in the area, we met villagers along the road who told us they were afraid to go to Kibua’s market,” said company commander Major Dev Panwar, who described Kibua as a virtual ghost town. “They had been attacked,... read more | categories: activism, crime and politics

A Russian Mi-8 helicopter passes over the hill and settles into a clearing in the forest at Kibua, in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo’s (DRC) Walikale region, roughly 25,000 square kilometers of dense jungle/forest inhabited mainly by remnants of Rwanda’s 1994 genocide perpetrators and witch doctor militias. The former Soviet Union’s aircraft are the primary choice of the United Nations Organization Mission in t... read more | categories: activism, crime and politics

Officer 's rationale: Bed-ridden grandmother 'took more aggressive stance' in her bed
When Lonnie Tinsley of El Reno, Oklahoma, called 911 to ask for medical assistance for his disabled, bed-ridden grandmother, he couldn't have dreamed it would end with police tasering the 86-year-old woman twice, stepping on her oxygen hose until she couldn't breathe, and sending her to a psychiatric hospital for six days.

| Top 10 Viewed Items |  | The 5-5-2000 Planetary Conjunction and Alleged "Global Disasters" Part 2
As we mentioned in our earlier missives [see Ancient Wisdom pp.93-94], the central star of our solar system, the Great RA, is a true, living entity, possessing its own intrinsic intelligence, consciousness and awareness. Now, this is a very difficult concept to understand, much less accept, by the average person not initiate din the ancient Hermetic-Gnostic mysteries, but what is occurring today -- as we have been ... read more | categories: paranormal, spirit
|  | The 5-5-2000 Planetary Conjunction and Alleged "Global Disasters"
A great deal of speculation and commotion has been going on for the past 5 weeks or so, on this occasion approaching the dreaded planetary conjunction on 5-5-2000 researched by Richard Noone some 30 years ago and published in his book in 1982. To begin with, it is imperative to realise that similar planetary conjunctions did occur in the past in the various constellation houses or zodiacal, astrological signs, as it... read more | categories: paranormal, environment, spirit

Based on the preceding section, we can expect several things to happen on planet Earth during this crucial, critical time, not as much in the geophysical aspect -- certainly not cataclysmic events -- but more in the psychological and socio-political and economic areas, largely motivated by astrological and astrophysical factors and influences. Now, we know that As Above, So Below: As Within, So Without, the ancient ... read more | categories: paranormal, activism, spirit, environment

|  | Quantum Mechanics, Chaos and the Conscious Brain
Abstract: A model is described in which subjective consciousness is generated through an unusual property of quantum non-locality. Chaos and bifurcation serve to link quantum transactions to global brain dynamics through the fractal architecture and dynamics of the central nervous system. The resulting process operates at the boundary between quantum computation and wave-particle reduction, thus combining optimality ... read more | categories: science, consciousness
