Episode Summary:

The document discusses the evolution of the virus throughout the pandemic, noting the transition from an acute to a chronic phase. It explains that this chronic phase involves suboptimal immune forces promoting both immune escape and immune pathology. The virus continues to evolve, and the vaccinated population faces diminishing immune resistance due to suboptimal forces. The unvaccinated population, having trained their cell-mediated innate immunity, retains some immune defense.

The document highlights that vaccine breakthrough infections have caused immune dysregulation, leading to persistent reinfections. These reinfections have promoted further viral spread and contributed to various health issues, including long COVID and rising cancer rates. The text argues that the vaccination campaign inadvertently generated the Omicron variant, which, in turn, caused more vaccine breakthrough infections, perpetuating a cycle of suboptimal immunity and immune pathology.

The text predicts that as the last hurdles of immune resistance in vaccinated individuals are overcome, the virus will evolve into a new form with significant mutations. This new virus will have a different glycosylation profile, making it distinct from SARS-CoV-2. The document warns of an impending pandemic caused by this new virus, exacerbated by continuous vaccine breakthrough infections.

The author recommends the use of antivirals like ivermectin prophylactically to mitigate the severe disease caused by the new virus. They predict that health authorities, despite their current stance, will eventually mandate the use of such antivirals. The text criticizes public health agencies for their handling of the pandemic and vaccination campaign, comparing their behavior to that of a mafia-like organization.

The document also discusses the potential collapse of healthcare systems and broader societal chaos resulting from the predicted hyper-acute phase of the pandemic. It emphasizes the importance of preparing for this scenario and prioritizing the most critical issues. The author asserts that the truth about the mass vaccination campaign will eventually surface, and those responsible for mishandling the pandemic will face consequences.

The text ends with a call to focus on the current threat posed by the virus and to prepare for the upcoming challenges. The author advises against conspiracy theories and emphasizes the importance of scientific evidence and solidarity in addressing the pandemic's impact.

So what we are seeing is that the virus has evolved over the pandemic from an acute phase. As the WHO is saying, we are over the acute phase of the pandemic, but they didn't tell you that the pandemic is now evolving to a chronic phase. And this chronic phase, the suboptimal immune forces that are now playing are not only because those things go hand in hand promoting immune scale, but also in tandem promoting immune pathology. And that is exactly what we are seeing. And of course, the virus is continuing to evolve and will ultimately, there is no doubt, immunologically speaking, there is no doubt about this, will overcome this very last resistance by these suboptimal forces.

When that happens, of course, when the last hurdle of resistance is gone, is breached, then of course there is no immune resistance whatsoever left in the vaccinated population. There is immune defense left, of course, in the unvaccinated population because those guys have, during this whole trajectory, have been able to train their cell mediated innate immunity. That has not happened with the vaccine. I've explained this multiple times in several different interviews and in several different articles. I want to ask you, Doctor Vanderbosch, in terms of long COVID, the rising cancers and people just becoming sick with all sorts of illnesses, now, a lot of people attribute that to the dangers of the injections they are causing, you know, multiple different illnesses and excess deaths around the world.

Are you saying, though that this is basically because their immune systems are, for the layman, destroyed? They're not able to fight off diseases and illnesses that they would normally be able to fight off? Well, Maria, again, it's a very difficult topic. I will try to be very concise.

There is a misunderstanding. People are often talking about exhaustion, etcetera. The right word to use here is immune dysregulation, because remember, we still have continuously reinfections re exposure by a virus that is now incredibly infectious, much more infectious than the original omicron variants that were already way more infectious than the previous variants. So their immune system is still to some extent able to contain the virus. Right.

And remember, they are still to some extent protected against severe disease. So what is happening is really dysregulation and is it the virus or the vaccine, to your question? No. The reason for this are the vaccine breakthrough infections, hence the virus, but only in vaccinated people. So it is in fact the vaccination that has led to the generation of omicron.

Omicron has led to the vaccine breakthrough infections. These vaccine breakthrough infections, as I just explained, have led to suboptimal immunity that, on one hand side, has led to an imperfect control of the viral replication and has secondarily led, and is still leading to immune pathology, including cancer. So it is this complex interplay of repetitive virus breakthrough infections in highly vaccinated people that is responsible for both immune escape and immune pathology that go hand in hand. It's just that at this time, the immune pathology is more obvious than the disease, because, frankly speaking, acute cases of COVID-19 disease, acute hospitalizations, acute rates of acute death, have tremendously dropped. Right.

And this is what is so insidious that, in fact, at this stage, the virus is evolving in a very silent way. The clinical symptoms are still to some extent under control, but what you see right now is still a virus that is strongly evolving. And many of the vaccinees, because the disease is relatively under control, are now shedding the virus in an asymptomatic way, which is just promoting further spread. Well, you can imagine as well there is a limit to autism, there is a limit to the immune defense. Even if you call the reservists, there is a limit.

Right. And that limit is soon, will soon be reached. There is no doubt about this. I have made a mistake in my timeline at the beginning. I apologize for this, but what was the reason?

I have not taken into account that reservists would be called in, and reservists is nothing else than the immune refocusing the fact that the immune system could catch up to some extent, but insufficient to control the virus. In the meantime, virus infections have been prolonged, which has enabled the unvaccinated population to train better and better to become almost like completely resistant to the virus. And that is what is ultimately going to generate the herd immunity that we need to completely stop, end this pandemic. To me, a very long time ago, you said the unvaccinated are the ones who are going to help us generate herd immunity. And certainly we see the health in general of the unvaccinated being vastly superior to those that have had the injections.

Absolutely. What I want to note is that we've had warnings that another pandemic is coming, and disease X and the WHO preparing with their amendments to the international health regulations and also the CA, or pandemic treaty, or, you know, all the different names that they give it to basically resume world power through a medical dictatorship of sorts, based on the fact that another pandemic is coming. So they clearly know they're preparing for something. I can see how what you're describing could be that type of situation could be used to declare another emergency. Yeah.

Interestingly enough, Maria, this new virus that will ultimately be the dictator, it will be the only one that is still able to overcome all these hurdles, immune hurdles. That virus will look very, very differently. It will no longer be a SARS CoV two virus. It will still be a coronavirus, but of a completely different type because of several different mutations, not only in spike protein, but also in other viral proteins, it will have a different glycosylation profile. For people who don't understand the term glycosylation, this is the sugar coat on the virus that nobody's talking about will also completely change.

So this virus will indeed be looking very, very differently from SARS CoV two, which could be a reason for health authorities to say, see, we have warned you a new virus would pop up. No, it is the direct consequence of the continuous vaccine breakthrough infections that are responsible for the derailment of the immune system and the vaccine breakthrough infections have originated from Omicron, which was a scourge. A scourge not a blessing, because Omicron directly resulted from the mass vaccination campaigns during a pandemic, not being able to control the virus while exerting immune pressure on the virus. Doctor Vanderbosch, you've made the statements where we've got a couple of minutes left here today. You've made the statements that antivirals will be crucial for people.

Obviously, ivermectin has performed incredibly well. Is this still your position?

The opposition, your position? Yeah, well, I'm strongly, of course, recommending people to take those antivirals, because when we will see this virus popping up, which I expect, really, I said, and I maintain these timelines and I promise everybody, I will no longer change those timelines. I say 50% chances that it happens before the end of April, 99% chances that it happens before the end of June. But what will be the features of those virus is that it will cause enhanced severe disease. Not only severe, enhanced severe disease.

So using those antivirals at a time where symptoms start will be too late. People will need to take them prophylactically. And this is not a joke, I said, and I predicted that these health authorities, the same, that in fact were censoring the use of ivermectin, will see themselves as forced to issue mandates for ivermectin and antivirus, because it will be the only way, to a large extent, reduce the losses, because what you have to do is to prevent the vaccine breakthrough infections. So you have to prevent infections. If their immune system can no longer do this.

Of the vaccinees, you have to intervene almost not with mass vaccination, for God's sake, but with mass antiviral prophylactic treatment. In the USA, our chief public health agency, which is the center for Disease Control, CDC, continues to push shots and boosters and continues to lie about the safety and efficacy of the vaccine. How damaging is that kind of behavior? To the authority of science?

It is extremely damaging. Of course it is extremely damaging. But, you know, I'm always saying, if you commit errors or even crimes at a very small scale, you can hide them. And I have seen this happening with the Ebola vaccination in West Africa a number of years ago. This was also criminal.

It was completely hidden. I revealed, disclosed everything, sent my reports all over the world, but it was complete silence. However, if you do this at a very large scale, like what has been done with this mass vaccination campaign, the truth will surface. The truth will surface, and those who have committed these crimes have been lying to the people and have not been taken care of. Their health and the safety of people will be severely, severely punished.

So it's also a matter of patience. But you have also to understand that if these people would now go out and say, oh, wait a minute. Yeah, we have been making some mistakes. It wasn't all right. We have to correct them, and we have to revise our opinion.

These people would be stoned in the street, right? They have no choice. They have no choice other than to stick. Even if they completely see how wrong they have been. They have no other choice.

They can only hope that something will happen that will distract from this issue. That will distract, but it won't. It won't. And so they keep silent or they just continue along the path that they have been walking along so far. But I can tell you that many of them must be desperate.

But, you know, being together, they feel protected. This is a big lobby. This is a big lobby. And they think that everybody thinks that the other will protect them, right? Which is not the case.

But this is this typical feeling. You all have committed crimes, but you are a big rope. It's like the Mafia, and you feel all together, you feel like a big team, and nobody can penetrate into the team, etcetera. It will collapse because. Because the truth will surface.

This has been a large scale experiment of gain of function on the very human population. This is something that will be reported in history for many, many generations to come, much longer than the talks that have taken place after World War one and World War two, et cetera, were you aware of the activities in the background in recent years of Peter Dasick and the Ecohealth alliance and Fauci and Ralph Barek at the University of North Carolina and the other characters who were involved in the development of the COVID-19 and perhaps in the vaccines themselves? No, of course, retrospectively, I have also read, well, or not a lot, but I've read some key documents and yeah, I must say, to some extent, it also blew me away. Right. It seems nefarious, actually.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That is. Yeah, of course. But, but again, my viewpoint is that what has currently happened or what is currently happening, that we have been turning through this mass vaccination, a relatively harmless virus, not completely harmless, but relatively harmless. We have been turning this through massive gain of function into really a weapon of mass destruction.

Right. And that is the thing we first have to deal with. You know, every time in business you have to prioritize. Well, if there is one thing that I put on the very top of the list, then it is how are we going to deal with the kind of virus that is circulating right now and is in no regard, in no regard when it comes to its biological properties comparable to the kind of Wuhan virus that invaded our countries four years ago. And this will be the big topic for me.

It's the only big, big topic. All the rest, you know, we will have to deal with it afterwards. But I'm sure that many of the topics that are now on the agenda will simply be canceled for, you know, for many reasons, not too high things. But, you know, if, for example, which topics are you speaking on? For example, the origin, the origin of the virus, many, many of the lawsuits, etcetera, will all be canceled.

These are things that take a lot of time. You know, people don't imagine. They, most people think I'm just a crazy man, but what I'm really predicting is a massive, massive tsunami. And then you have, you, you have to see, you know, you have hundreds of items on your agenda. But if such a thing happens, I mean, many of these agenda points just get wiped off the table, of course.

So I think the trick is to be able to concentrate on what is most important. And I'm not saying that all of the other topics on the agenda are not important, they are very important. But we will have to deal with the most important things first and see what is left to deal with. But yeah, to your point, I've also been surprised with all what's going on or what has been going on behind the scene where people have this kind of very, very suspicious research projects and to some extent want to patent things that, or patenting things, viruses that then ultimately appear to be the circulating virus in the population. So how does that rhyme?

It's very, very difficult. I don't know. But I'm a scientist and I'm saying the most important from a scientific viewpoint is now the threat of the currently circulating virus, given the dysregulated immune response in millions of vaccinated people. Right now. You've said very clearly more than once that you expected a great deal of trouble in fairly quick timeframe upcoming in the months ahead.

What can people do who are worried about their immune systems? We know here in the USA, we have a number of organized doctors such as Peter McCullough and his group, who have various treatment protocols for vaccination problems, you know, namely spike proteins that circulating in people's system. Do you have any idea on your own what people might do in the face of this problem? Yeah. Well, you know, James, you are recording all this, and I'm very happy about this because nobody believes me.

Nobody. Even these frontline doctors don't believe me when I say, guys, none of your treatments will work because it will go too fast. It will go extremely fast. It will be a hyperacute tsunami, right, where people who start to show symptoms will pass out, pass away within 24 hours, right? Oh, nobody, yeah, nobody.

Nobody believes me. Of course nobody believes me. That is why it is good and it is exceptional that you can record my words. And. Yeah, in the sense that, okay, I mean, it is documented, right.

So, because what happens is that what is deteriorating the situation is every single reinfection, re exposure of people who have been vaccinated. And you will see, and you can write this out or it is recorded, you will see that what happens, what will happen, for example, in the next coming weeks, is that you will see that we will have more and more cases of more and more serious long COVID. Please remind it, more cases, a higher prevalence of more cases and more severe cases of long COVID. That is the chronic presentation of. They will start to replace the surge of the cancers, right?

So things will go, so we go, remember, from an acute disease, I just explained it, acute, self limiting. Now we have a more chronic phase. It will end with a hyper acute phase, a huge wave. And of course, nobody, I've been studying this for four years. I know what I'm talking about.

I'm probably the only person in all modesty who understands the immunology behind this. And so what I can advise, and I have done many, many videos to make people aware to all the vaccinated people, is that they should start. What do they need to do? Well, they need to avoid reinfection. It's very simple because it's the reinfection that is now the cause, the re infection in the vaccinated people.

That is what the culprit is. That is what is responsible for deteriorating the situation. So if your immune system cannot avoid infection, what can you do? Well, the only thing you can do, it's very, very simple, is take antivirals. Of course, the only difference is that you will not be able to wait for taking these antivirals till you have symptoms.

So what I'm advising is as soon as people see that in one or the other country, one or the other country, one or the other state, for example, in the United States, this thing starts with hospitalizations and deaths going up very rapidly. They need to take antivirals prophylactically, not wait till they have any symptoms. Because I can tell you, I'm in Belgium. If it starts in the US or if it starts in Israel or if it starts in the UK, I bet you that within a few days, you will see the same scenario in many of these highly vaccinated countries. But not in Africa, of course.

No problems with long COVID in Africa. There will be no tsunami in Africa, right? Yeah, because herd immunity. We don't have herd immunity and low vaccination rate. Of course.

Of course. Of course. Now, when you say. When you say antiviral, are we talking about these pharmaceuticals that were demonized by the public health, ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine and others like it. You have been following the evolution of the FDA, their position towards ivermectin in the recent days.

Yes. Well, they seem to be making a pivot. Yeah. You know what I have been predicting? I have been predicting already half a year ago that the public health authorities are going, are finally going to have mandates for ivermectin vaccination.

I mean, this seems a little bit hilarious, right? But that is the kind of evolution that we are going to see because of which antivirals could you use? Listen, when you hear Pierre Corrie and other experts, I mean, the results with ivermectin are fabulous. It is very safe. It is the only antiviral that is cost effective, that is widely available, can be supplemented in sufficient quantities, and that is safe.

There is simply no alternative maybe hydroxychloroquine, etcetera, but this is, let's say, the same ball game, and the public health authorities will come too late with their ivermectin mandates. But you see already how they are evolving now, how their position is. Well, also you can see how that if they do that, that will really disorder the reputation of medicine worse than it already is. Who cares? Well, it's not.

It's not so much. A minute, wait a minute. You know, the thing I want your audience to understand is that what we will be facing in terms of the hyper acute COVID crisis that is imminent is that we will have, and that is the positive news, we will have to build a completely new world. Right? So there won't be the FDA anymore or all these folks, you know, they.

I don't know where they will be going. You know, what will happen to them. It's very uncertain, but it's very, very clear that when this starts, our hospitals will collapse. And when the hospitals collapse, that means that the chaos. Yeah, in all kinds of layers of society, financial, economic, social, you name it, you know, the chaos will be complete.

Right? And that is what I'm very clearly predicting. And I'm not a fool. Yeah, I'm a scientist, right? I insist people can look at my curriculum.

I've been talking, like, four years about this. I've written many, many articles. People can ask me questions. I'm teaching online courses, lectures on epidemiology and pandemics and epidemics, etcetera. And, you know, it's very strange for me to make such statements, but, you know, hiding it, because I'm 200% convinced that it will happen.

One final question. Have you been personally persecuted for spreading this information? Because that's certainly the case in the USA where doctors have opposed the public health establishment and the medical establishment. Have you been under attack? Well, I've been a little bit under attack in Belgium by a bunch of, you know, immunologically or scientifically illiterate journalists, etcetera.

But I've not really been suffering. But listen, of course I have my strategy. First of all, I've been lucky. Why? Because I'm still, you know, a veterinary doctor, right?

I'm not a medical doctor. I've not appreciated practice in medical, you know, I've not a medical practice. And secondarily, I've never been naming certain names, you know, I've never been attacking people individually when I talk about, you know, idiots, public health authorities, et cetera. I have no problem if I talk about the who? But I'm not going to cite particular names, for example.

And the third thing is that everything I'm saying, even if I make very strong statements, I can back them up with scientific data, right? My discourse is scientific. I'm a scientific activist, right? But I'm not the guy who turns to conspiracies or things that I cannot prove or that I don't know for sure, not necessarily pretending they are wrong. But if I don't know it for sure, you won't hear me about this.

If it's not my field of expertise, I will delegate it to other people, etcetera. But I will always very clearly express my opinion on the things I know without attacking people in person. Right. So, yeah, I've not been suffering too much. And also, I've been being in Belgium.

I've primarily been speaking in. In the US and abroad, not that much in my country, because I wanted to reach as many people as possible. If I give an interview in Belgium, there is 30 people who will watch. If I do it on a US platform, I can add a few zeros. Right.

Well, this has certainly been and is going to continue to be a very strange period of world history. I want to thank you very much for coming on the podcast, and this will be a bit of a cold shower for a lot of listeners out there, but I think your message is very important and we should be very careful of how human affairs proceed in the months ahead. So thank you very much, Doctor Geert Vandenbosch. Is there any particular website that you have that you would encourage listeners to go to for information? Yeah, well, we publish all the information.

All my articles, interviews, etcetera, are published on the website Voice for science and Solidarity. So, Voice for Science and solidarity, because I think these are two notions that are very important to science and also solidarity. Discrimination whatsoever towards vaccinated people. Like, it was also completely ridiculous to discriminate or, you know, the unvaccinated at the beginning of this vaccination campaigns. Yeah.

So, yeah, there people can find the information. And I'm sorry for the harsh message, but I'm always saying somebody needs to tell the truth. And since I'm too convinced of what I'm saying, I dare to do so well, I want to thank you very much for daring to do that, and we'll stand by and see how this plays out.

The bible for bringing cutting-edge products to larger markets—now revised and updated with new insights into the realities of high-tech marketing In Crossing the Chasm, Geoffrey A. Moore shows that in the Technology Adoption Life Cycle—which begins with innovators and moves to early adopters, early majority, late majority, and laggards—there is a vast chasm between the early adopters and the early majority. While early adopters are willing to sacrifice for the advantage of being first, the early majority waits until they know that the technology actually offers improvements in productivity. The challenge for innovators and marketers is to narrow this chasm and ultimately accelerate adoption across every segment. This third edition brings Moore's classic work up to date with dozens of new examples of successes and failures, new strategies for marketing in the digital world, and Moore's most current insights and findings. He also includes two new appendices, the first connecting the ideas in Crossing the Chasm to work subsequently published in his Inside the Tornado, and the second presenting his recent groundbreaking work for technology adoption models for high-tech consumer markets.

Endless terror. Refugee waves. An unfixable global economy. Surprising election results. New billion-dollar fortunes. Miracle medical advances. What if they were all connected? What if you could understand why? The Seventh Sense is the story of what all of today's successful figures see and feel: the forces that are invisible to most of us but explain everything from explosive technological change to uneasy political ripples. The secret to power now is understanding our new age of networks. Not merely the Internet, but also webs of trade, finance, and even DNA. Based on his years of advising generals, CEOs, and politicians, Ramo takes us into the opaque heart of our world's rapidly connected systems and teaches us what the losers are not yet seeing -- and what the victors of this age already know.

This lushly illustrated history of popular entertainment takes a long-zoom approach, contending that the pursuit of novelty and wonder is a powerful driver of world-shaping technological change. Steven Johnson argues that, throughout history, the cutting edge of innovation lies wherever people are working the hardest to keep themselves and others amused. Johnson’s storytelling is just as delightful as the inventions he describes, full of surprising stops along the journey from simple concepts to complex modern systems. He introduces us to the colorful innovators of leisure: the explorers, proprietors, showmen, and artists who changed the trajectory of history with their luxurious wares, exotic meals, taverns, gambling tables, and magic shows. In Wonderland, Johnson compellingly argues that observers of technological and social trends should be looking for clues in novel amusements. You’ll find the future wherever people are having the most fun.

Nothing “goes viral.” If you think a popular movie, song, or app came out of nowhere to become a word-of-mouth success in today’s crowded media environment, you’re missing the real story. Each blockbuster has a secret history—of power, influence, dark broadcasters, and passionate cults that turn some new products into cultural phenomena. Even the most brilliant ideas wither in obscurity if they fail to connect with the right network, and the consumers that matter most aren't the early adopters, but rather their friends, followers, and imitators -- the audience of your audience. In his groundbreaking investigation, Atlantic senior editor Derek Thompson uncovers the hidden psychology of why we like what we like and reveals the economics of cultural markets that invisibly shape our lives. Shattering the sentimental myths of hit-making that dominate pop culture and business, Thompson shows quality is insufficient for success, nobody has "good taste," and some of the most popular products in history were one bad break away from utter failure. It may be a new world, but there are some enduring truths to what audiences and consumers want. People love a familiar surprise: a product that is bold, yet sneakily recognizable. Every business, every artist, every person looking to promote themselves and their work wants to know what makes some works so successful while others disappear. Hit Makers is a magical mystery tour through the last century of pop culture blockbusters and the most valuable currency of the twenty-first century—people’s attention. From the dawn of impressionist art to the future of Facebook, from small Etsy designers to the origin of Star Wars, Derek Thompson leaves no pet rock unturned to tell the fascinating story of how culture happens and why things become popular. In Hit Makers, Derek Thompson investigates: · The secret link between ESPN's sticky programming and the The Weeknd's catchy choruses · Why Facebook is today’s most important newspaper · How advertising critics predicted Donald Trump · The 5th grader who accidentally launched "Rock Around the Clock," the biggest hit in rock and roll history · How Barack Obama and his speechwriters think of themselves as songwriters · How Disney conquered the world—but the future of hits belongs to savvy amateurs and individuals · The French collector who accidentally created the Impressionist canon · Quantitative evidence that the biggest music hits aren’t always the best · Why almost all Hollywood blockbusters are sequels, reboots, and adaptations · Why one year--1991--is responsible for the way pop music sounds today · Why another year --1932--created the business model of film · How data scientists proved that “going viral” is a myth · How 19th century immigration patterns explain the most heard song in the Western Hemisphere

Ours is often called an information economy, but at a moment when access to information is virtually unlimited, our attention has become the ultimate commodity. In nearly every moment of our waking lives, we face a barrage of efforts to harvest our attention. This condition is not simply the byproduct of recent technological innovations but the result of more than a century's growth and expansion in the industries that feed on human attention. Wu’s narrative begins in the nineteenth century, when Benjamin Day discovered he could get rich selling newspapers for a penny. Since then, every new medium—from radio to television to Internet companies such as Google and Facebook—has attained commercial viability and immense riches by turning itself into an advertising platform. Since the early days, the basic business model of “attention merchants” has never changed: free diversion in exchange for a moment of your time, sold in turn to the highest-bidding advertiser. Full of lively, unexpected storytelling and piercing insight, The Attention Merchants lays bare the true nature of a ubiquitous reality we can no longer afford to accept at face value.

Some people think that in today’s hyper-competitive world, it’s the tough, take-no-prisoners type who comes out on top. But in reality, argues New York Times bestselling author Dave Kerpen, it’s actually those with the best people skills who win the day. Those who build the right relationships. Those who truly understand and connect with their colleagues, their customers, their partners. Those who can teach, lead, and inspire. In a world where we are constantly connected, and social media has become the primary way we communicate, the key to getting ahead is being the person others like, respect, and trust.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER If you want to build a better future, you must believe in secrets. The great secret of our time is that there are still uncharted frontiers to explore and new inventions to create. In Zero to One, legendary entrepreneur and investor Peter Thiel shows how we can find singular ways to create those new things. Thiel begins with the contrarian premise that we live in an age of technological stagnation, even if we’re too distracted by shiny mobile devices to notice. Information technology has improved rapidly, but there is no reason why progress should be limited to computers or Silicon Valley. Progress can be achieved in any industry or area of business. It comes from the most important skill that every leader must master: learning to think for yourself. Doing what someone else already knows how to do takes the world from 1 to n, adding more of something familiar. But when you do something new, you go from 0 to 1. The next Bill Gates will not build an operating system. The next Larry Page or Sergey Brin won’t make a search engine. Tomorrow’s champions will not win by competing ruthlessly in today’s marketplace. They will escape competition altogether, because their businesses will be unique. Zero to One presents at once an optimistic view of the future of progress in America and a new way of thinking about innovation: it starts by learning to ask the questions that lead you to find value in unexpected places.

Why should I do business with you… and not your competitor? Whether you are a retailer, manufacturer, distributor, or service provider – if you cannot answer this question, you are surely losing customers, clients and market share. This eye-opening book reveals how identifying your competitive advantages (and trumpeting them to the marketplace) is the most surefire way to close deals, retain clients, and stay miles ahead of the competition. The five fatal flaws of most companies: • They don’t have a competitive advantage but think they do • They have a competitive advantage but don’t know what it is—so they lower prices instead • They know what their competitive advantage is but neglect to tell clients about it • They mistake “strengths” for competitive advantages • They don’t concentrate on competitive advantages when making strategic and operational decisions The good news is that you can overcome these costly mistakes – by identifying your competitive advantages and creating new ones. Consultant, public speaker, and competitive advantage expert Jaynie Smith will show you how scores of small and large companies substantially increased their sales by focusing on their competitive advantages. When advising a CEO frustrated by his salespeople’s inability to close deals, Smith discovered that his company stayed on schedule 95 percent of the time – an achievement no one else in his industry could claim. By touting this and other competitive advantages to customers, closing rates increased by 30 percent—and so did company revenues. Jack Welch has said, “If you don’t have a competitive advantage, don’t compete.” This straight-to-the-point book is filled with insightful stories and specific steps on how to pinpoint your competitive advantages, develop new ones, and get the message out about them.

The number one New York Times best seller that examines how people can champion new ideas in their careers and everyday life - and how leaders can fight groupthink, from the author of Think Again and co-author of Option B. With Give and Take, Adam Grant not only introduced a landmark new paradigm for success but also established himself as one of his generation’s most compelling and provocative thought leaders. In Originals he again addresses the challenge of improving the world, but now from the perspective of becoming original: choosing to champion novel ideas and values that go against the grain, battle conformity, and buck outdated traditions. How can we originate new ideas, policies, and practices without risking it all? Using surprising studies and stories spanning business, politics, sports, and entertainment, Grant explores how to recognize a good idea, speak up without getting silenced, build a coalition of allies, choose the right time to act, and manage fear and doubt; how parents and teachers can nurture originality in children; and how leaders can build cultures that welcome dissent. Learn from an entrepreneur who pitches his start-ups by highlighting the reasons not to invest, a woman at Apple who challenged Steve Jobs from three levels below, an analyst who overturned the rule of secrecy at the CIA, a billionaire financial wizard who fires employees for failing to criticize him, and a TV executive who didn’t even work in comedy but saved Seinfeld from the cutting-room floor. The payoff is a set of groundbreaking insights about rejecting conformity and improving the status quo.

In The $100 Startup, Chris Guillebeau tells you how to lead of life of adventure, meaning and purpose - and earn a good living. Still in his early 30s, Chris is on the verge of completing a tour of every country on earth - he's already visited more than 175 nations - and yet he’s never held a "real job" or earned a regular paycheck. Rather, he has a special genius for turning ideas into income, and he uses what he earns both to support his life of adventure and to give back. There are many others like Chris - those who've found ways to opt out of traditional employment and create the time and income to pursue what they find meaningful. Sometimes, achieving that perfect blend of passion and income doesn't depend on shelving what you currently do. You can start small with your venture, committing little time or money, and wait to take the real plunge when you're sure it's successful. In preparing to write this book, Chris identified 1,500 individuals who have built businesses earning $50,000 or more from a modest investment (in many cases, $100 or less), and from that group he’s chosen to focus on the 50 most intriguing case studies. In nearly all cases, people with no special skills discovered aspects of their personal passions that could be monetized, and were able to restructure their lives in ways that gave them greater freedom and fulfillment. Here, finally, distilled into one easy-to-use guide, are the most valuable lessons from those who’ve learned how to turn what they do into a gateway to self-fulfillment. It’s all about finding the intersection between your "expertise" - even if you don’t consider it such - and what other people will pay for. You don’t need an MBA, a business plan or even employees. All you need is a product or service that springs from what you love to do anyway, people willing to pay, and a way to get paid. Not content to talk in generalities, Chris tells you exactly how many dollars his group of unexpected entrepreneurs required to get their projects up and running; what these individuals did in the first weeks and months to generate significant cash; some of the key mistakes they made along the way, and the crucial insights that made the business stick. Among Chris’s key principles: if you’re good at one thing, you’re probably good at something else; never teach a man to fish - sell him the fish instead; and in the battle between planning and action, action wins. In ancient times, people who were dissatisfied with their lives dreamed of finding magic lamps, buried treasure, or streets paved with gold. Today, we know that it’s up to us to change our lives. And the best part is, if we change our own life, we can help others change theirs. This remarkable book will start you on your way.

The answer is simple: come up with 10 ideas a day. It doesn't matter if they are good or bad, the key is to exercise your "idea muscle", to keep it toned, and in great shape. People say ideas are cheap and execution is everything but that is NOT true. Execution is a consequence, a subset of good, brilliant idea. And good ideas require daily work. Ideas may be easy if we are only coming up with one or two but if you open this book to any of the pages and try to produce more than three, you will feel a burn, scratch your head, and you will be sweating, and working hard. There is a turning point when you reach idea number six for the day, you still have four to go, and your mind muscle is getting a workout. By the time you list those last ideas to make it to 10 you will see for yourself what "sweating the idea muscle" means. As you practice the daily idea generation you become an idea machine. When we become idea machines we are flooded with lots of bad ideas but also with some that are very good. This happens by the sheer force of the number, because we are coming up with 3,650 ideas per year (at 10 a day). When you are inspired by an extraordinary idea, all of your thoughts break their chains, you go beyond limitations and your capacity to act expands in every direction. Forces and abilities you did not know you had come to the surface, and you realize you are capable of doing great things. As you practice with the suggested prompts in this book your ideas will get better, you will be a source of great insight for others, people will find you magnetic, and they will want to hang out with you because you have so much to offer. When you practice every day your life will transform, in no more than 180 days, because it has no other evolutionary choice. Life changes for the better when we become the source of positive, insightful, and helpful ideas. Don't believe a word I say. Instead, challenge yourself.

A Guide to Resilience: How to Bounce Back from Life's Inevitable Problems Christian Moore is convinced that each of us has a power hidden within, something that can get us through any kind of adversity. That power is resilience. In The Resilience Breakthrough, Moore delivers a practical primer on how you can become more resilient in a world of instability and narrowing opportunity, whether you're facing financial troubles, health setbacks, challenges on the job, or any other problem. We can each have our own resilience breakthrough, Moore argues, and can each learn how to use adverse circumstances as potent fuel for overcoming life's hardships. As he shares engaging real-life stories and brutally honest analyses of his own experiences, Moore equips you with 27 resilience-building tools that you can start using today - in your personal life or in your organization.

What if someone told you that your behavior was controlled by a powerful, invisible force? Most of us would be skeptical of such a claim--but it's largely true. Our brains are constantly transmitting and receiving signals of which we are unaware. Studies show that these constant inputs drive the great majority of our decisions about what to do next--and we become conscious of the decisions only after we start acting on them. Many may find that disturbing. But the implications for leadership are profound. In this provocative yet practical book, renowned speaking coach and communication expert Nick Morgan highlights recent research that shows how humans are programmed to respond to the nonverbal cues of others--subtle gestures, sounds, and signals--that elicit emotion. He then provides a clear, useful framework of seven "power cues" that will be essential for any leader in business, the public sector, or almost any context. You'll learn crucial skills, from measuring nonverbal signs of confidence, to the art and practice of gestures and vocal tones, to figuring out what your gut is really telling you. This concise and engaging guide will help leaders and aspiring leaders of all stripes to connect powerfully, communicate more effectively, and command influence.

New York Times bestselling author and social media expert Gary Vaynerchuk shares hard-won advice on how to connect with customers and beat the competition. A mash-up of the best elements of Crush It! and The Thank You Economy with a fresh spin, Jab, Jab, Jab, Right Hook is a blueprint to social media marketing strategies that really works. When managers and marketers outline their social media strategies, they plan for the "right hook"—their next sale or campaign that's going to knock out the competition. Even companies committed to jabbing—patiently engaging with customers to build the relationships crucial to successful social media campaigns—want to land the punch that will take down their opponent or their customer's resistance in one blow. Right hooks convert traffic to sales and easily show results. Except when they don't. Thanks to massive change and proliferation in social media platforms, the winning combination of jabs and right hooks is different now. Vaynerchuk shows that while communication is still key, context matters more than ever. It's not just about developing high-quality content, but developing high-quality content perfectly adapted to specific social media platforms and mobile devices—content tailor-made for Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter and Tumblr.

From the best-selling author of The Black Swan and one of the foremost thinkers of our time, Nassim Nicholas Taleb, a book on how some things actually benefit from disorder. In The Black Swan Taleb outlined a problem, and in Antifragile he offers a definitive solution: how to gain from disorder and chaos while being protected from fragilities and adverse events. For what Taleb calls the "antifragile" is actually beyond the robust, because it benefits from shocks, uncertainty, and stressors, just as human bones get stronger when subjected to stress and tension. The antifragile needs disorder in order to survive and flourish. Taleb stands uncertainty on its head, making it desirable, even necessary, and proposes that things be built in an antifragile manner. The antifragile is immune to prediction errors. Why is the city-state better than the nation-state, why is debt bad for you, and why is everything that is both modern and complicated bound to fail? The audiobook spans innovation by trial and error, health, biology, medicine, life decisions, politics, foreign policy, urban planning, war, personal finance, and economic systems. And throughout, in addition to the street wisdom of Fat Tony of Brooklyn, the voices and recipes of ancient wisdom, from Roman, Greek, Semitic, and medieval sources, are heard loud and clear. Extremely ambitious and multidisciplinary, Antifragile provides a blueprint for how to behave - and thrive - in a world we don't understand, and which is too uncertain for us to even try to understand and predict. Erudite and witty, Taleb’s message is revolutionary: What is not antifragile will surely perish.

The Cluetrain Manifesto began as a Web site in 1999 when the authors, who have worked variously at IBM, Sun Microsystems, the Linux Journal, and NPR, posted 95 theses about the new reality of the networked marketplace. Ten years after its original publication, their message remains more relevant than ever. For example, thesis no. 2: “Markets consist of human beings, not demographic sectors”; thesis no. 20: “Companies need to realize their markets are often laughing. At them.” The book enlarges on these themes through dozens of stories and observations about business in America and how the Internet will continue to change it all. With a new introduction and chapters by the authors, and commentary by Jake McKee, JP Rangaswami, and Dan Gillmor, this book is essential reading for anybody interested in the Internet and e-commerce, and is especially vital for businesses navigating the topography of the wired marketplace.

From the founders of the trailblazing software company 37signals, here is a different kind of business book one that explores a new reality. Today, anyone can be in business. Tools that used to be out of reach are now easily accessible. Technology that cost thousands is now just a few bucks or even free. Stuff that was impossible just a few years ago is now simple.That means anyone can start a business. And you can do it without working miserable 80-hour weeks or depleting your life savings. You can start it on the side while your day job provides all the cash flow you need. Forget about business plans, meetings, office space - you don't need them. With its straightforward language and easy-is-better approach, Rework is the perfect playbook for anyone who's ever dreamed of doing it on their own. Hardcore entrepreneurs, small-business owners, people stuck in day jobs who want to get out, and artists who don't want to starve anymore will all find valuable inspiration and guidance in these pages. It's time to rework work.


Tesla's main source of inspiration.
Roger Joseph Boscovich, a physicist, astronomer, mathematician, philosopher, diplomat, poet, theologian, Jesuit priest, and polymath, published the first edition of his famous work, Philosophiae Naturalis Theoria Redacta Ad Unicam Legem Virium In Natura Existentium (Theory Of Natural Philosophy Derived To The Single Law Of Forces Which Exist In Nature), in Vienna, in 1758, containing his atomic theory and his theory of forces. A second edition was published in 1763 in Venice

Bill Clinton's Georgetown mentor's history of the Conspiracy since the Boer War in South Africa.
TRAGEDY AND HOPE shows the years 1895-1950 as a period of transition from the world dominated by Europe in the nineteenth century to the world of three blocs in the twentieth century. With clarity, perspective, and cumulative impact, Professor Quigley examines the nature of that transition through two world wars and a worldwide economic depression. As an interpretative historian, he tries to show each event in the full complexity of its historical context. The result is a unique work, notable in several ways. It gives a picture of the world in terms of the influence of different cultures and outlooks upon each other; it shows, more completely than in any similar work, the influence of science and technology on human life; and it explains, with unprecedented clarity, how the intricate financial and commercial patterns of the West prior to 1914 influenced the development of today’s world.

This is the July, 2016 ALTA (Asymmetric Linguistic Trends Analysis) Report. Also known as 'the Web Bot' report, this series is brought to you by halfpasthuman.com.

Time is considered as an independent entity which cannot be reduced to the concept of matter, space or field. The point of discussion is the "time flow" conception of N A Kozyrev (1908-1983), an outstanding Russian astronomer and natural scientist. In addition to a review of the experimental studies of "the active properties of time", by both Kozyrev and modern scientists, the reader will find different interpretations of Kozyrev's views and some developments of his ideas in the fields of geophysics, astrophysics, general relativity and theoretical mechanics.

How UFO Time Engines work - Clif High

The webpage discusses the workings of UFO time engines according to N.A. Kozyrev's experiments. The LL1 engine is described as a hollow metal sphere with a pool of mercury metal inside. When activated by electrical energy, it creates a uni-polar magnetic field causing the mercury to spin at a high rate and induce "time stuff" to accumulate on its surface. The accrued time stuff is siphoned down magnetically to the radiating antennae on the bottom of the vessel, providing self-sustaining power and allowing for time travel. The environment inside UFOs is likely volatile and not suitable for humans.

The Body Electric tells the fascinating story of our bioelectric selves. Robert O. Becker, a pioneer in the filed of regeneration and its relationship to electrical currents in living things, challenges the established mechanistic understanding of the body. He found clues to the healing process in the long-discarded theory that electricity is vital to life. But as exciting as Becker's discoveries are, pointing to the day when human limbs, spinal cords, and organs may be regenerated after they have been damaged, equally fascinating is the story of Becker's struggle to do such original work. The Body Electric explores new pathways in our understanding of evolution, acupuncture, psychic phenomena, and healing.

Unique, controversial, and frequently cited, this survey offers highly detailed accounts concerning the development of ideas and theories about the nature of electricity and space (aether). Readily accessible to general readers as well as high school students, teachers, and undergraduates, it includes much information unavailable elsewhere. This single-volume edition comprises both The Classical Theories and The Modern Theories, which were originally published separately. The first volume covers the theories of classical physics from the age of the Greek philosophers to the late 19th century. The second volume chronicles discoveries that led to the advances of modern physics, focusing on special relativity, quantum theories, general relativity, matrix mechanics, and wave mechanics. Noted historian of science I. Bernard Cohen, who reviewed these books for Scientific American, observed, "I know of no other history of electricity which is as sound as Whittaker's. All those who have found stimulation from his works will read this informative and accurate history with interest and profit."

The third edition of the defining text for the graduate-level course in Electricity and Magnetism has finally arrived! It has been 37 years since the first edition and 24 since the second. The new edition addresses the changes in emphasis and applications that have occurred in the field, without any significant increase in length.

Objects are a ubiquitous presence and few of us stop and think what they mean in our lives. This is the job of philosophers and this is what Jean Baudrillard does in his book. This is required reading for followers of Baudrillard, and he is perhaps the most assessable to the General Reader. Baudrillard is most associated with Post Modernism, and this early book sets the stage for that journey to the post modern world.
We are all surrounded by objects, but how many times have we thought about what those objects represent. If we took the time to think about the symbolism, we could arrive at easy solutions. We have been so accustomed to advertising the automobile representing freedom is an easy conclusion. But what about furniture? What about chairs? What about the arrangement of furniture? Watches? Collecting objects? Baudrillard literally opens up a new world and creates the universe of objects.
It is not that the critique of a society or objects has not been done before, but Baudrillard’s approach is new. Baudrillard examines objects as signs with a smattering of Post-Marxist thought. In his analysis of objects as signs, he ushers in the Post-Modern age and world for which he would be known. Heady stuff to be sure, but is presented by Baudrillard in a readily accessible manner. He articulates his thesis in a straightforward manner, avoiding the hyper-technical terminology he used in his later writings.

Moving away from the Marxist/Freudian approaches that had concerned him earlier, Baudrillard developed in this book a theory of contemporary culture that relies on displacing economic notions of cultural production with notions of cultural expenditure.

The book begins with Sidis's discovery of the first law of physical laws: "Among the physical laws it is a general characteristic that there is reversibility in time; that is, should the whole universe trace back the various positions that bodies in it have passed through in a given interval of time, but in the reverse order to that in which these positions actually occurred, then the universe, in this imaginary case, would still obey the same laws." Recent discoveries of dark matter are predicted by him in this book, and he goes on to show that the "Big Bang" is wrong. Sidis (SIGH-dis) shows that it is far more likely the universe is eternal

In this book you will encounter rare information regarding your true identity - the conscious self in the body - and how you may break the hypnotic spell your senses and thinking have cast about you since childhood.

Do we see the world as it truly is? In The Case Against Reality, pioneering cognitive scientist Donald Hoffman says no? we see what we need in order to survive. Our visual perceptions are not a window onto reality, Hoffman shows us, but instead are interfaces constructed by natural selection. The objects we see around us are not unlike the file icons on our computer desktops: while shaped like a small folder on our screens, the files themselves are made of a series of ones and zeros - too complex for most of us to understand. In a similar way, Hoffman argues, evolution has shaped our perceptions into simplistic illusions to help us navigate the world around us. Yet now these illusions can be manipulated by advertising and design.
Drawing on thirty years of Hoffman's own influential research, as well as evolutionary biology, game theory, neuroscience, and philosophy, The Case Against Reality makes the mind-bending yet utterly convincing case that the world is nothing like what we see through our eyes.

At the height of the Cold War, JFK risked committing the greatest crime in human history: starting a nuclear war. Horrified by the specter of nuclear annihilation, Kennedy gradually turned away from his long-held Cold Warrior beliefs and toward a policy of lasting peace. But to the military and intelligence agencies in the United States, who were committed to winning the Cold War at any cost, Kennedy’s change of heart was a direct threat to their power and influence. Once these dark “Unspeakable” forces recognized that Kennedy’s interests were in direct opposition to their own, they tagged him as a dangerous traitor, plotted his assassination, and orchestrated the subsequent cover-up.

2020 saw a spike in deaths in America, smaller than you might imagine during a pandemic, some of which could be attributed to COVID and to initial treatment strategies that were not effective. But then, in 2021, the stats people expected went off the rails. The CEO of the OneAmerica insurance company publicly disclosed that during the third and fourth quarters of 2021, death in people of working age (18–64) was 40 percent higher than it was before the pandemic. Significantly, the majority of the deaths were not attributed to COVID. A 40 percent increase in deaths is literally earth-shaking. Even a 10 percent increase in excess deaths would have been a 1-in-200-year event. But this was 40 percent. And therein lies a story—a story that starts with obvious questions: - What has caused this historic spike in deaths among younger people? - What has caused the shift from old people, who are expected to die, to younger people, who are expected to keep living?

The Tavistock Institute, in Sussex, England, describes itself as a nonprofit charity that applies social science to contemporary issues and problems. But this book posits that it is the world’s center for mass brainwashing and social engineering activities. It grew from a somewhat crude beginning at Wellington House into a sophisticated organization that was to shape the destiny of the entire planet, and in the process, change the paradigm of modern society. In this eye-opening work, both the Tavistock network and the methods of brainwashing and psychological warfare are uncovered.

A seminal and controversial figure in the history of political thought and public relations, Edward Bernays (1891–1995), pioneered the scientific technique of shaping and manipulating public opinion, which he famously dubbed “engineering of consent.” During World War I, he was an integral part of the U.S. Committee on Public Information (CPI), a powerful propaganda apparatus that was mobilized to package, advertise and sell the war to the American people as one that would “Make the World Safe for Democracy.” The CPI would become the blueprint in which marketing strategies for future wars would be based upon.
Bernays applied the techniques he had learned in the CPI and, incorporating some of the ideas of Walter Lipmann, as well as his uncle, Sigmund Freud, became an outspoken proponent of propaganda as a tool for democratic and corporate manipulation of the population. His 1928 bombshell Propaganda lays out his eerily prescient vision for using propaganda to regiment the collective mind in a variety of areas, including government, politics, art, science and education. To read this book today is to frightfully comprehend what our contemporary institutions of government and business have become in regards to organized manipulation of the masses.

Undressing the Bible: in Hebrew, the Old Testament speaks for itself, explicitly and transparently. It tells of mysterious beings, special and powerful ones, that appeared on Earth.
Aliens?
Former earthlings?
Superior civilizations, that have always been present on our planet?
Creators, manipulators, geneticists. Aviators, warriors, despotic rulers. And scientists, possessing very advanced knowledge, special weapons and science-fiction-like technologies.
Once naked, the Bible is very different from how it has always been told to us: it does not contain any spiritual, omnipotent and omniscient God, no eternity. No apples and no creeping, tempting, serpents. No winged angels. Not even the Red Sea: the people of the Exodus just wade through a simple reed bed.
Writer and journalist Giorgio Cattaneo sits down with Italy's most renowned biblical translator for his first long interview about his life's work for the English audience. A decade long official Bible translator for the Church and lifelong researcher of ancient myths and tales, Mauro Bilglino is a unicum in his field of expertise and research. A fine connoisseur of dead languages, from ancient Greek to Hebrew and medieval Latin, he focused his attention and efforts on the accurate translating of the bible.
The encounter with Mauro Biglino and his work - the journalist writes - is profoundly healthy, stimulating and inevitably destabilizing: it forces us to reconsider the solidity of the awareness that nourishes many of our common beliefs. And it is a testament to the courage that is needed, today more than ever, to claim the full dignity of free research.

Most people have heard of Jesus Christ, considered the Messiah by Christians, and who lived 2000 years ago. But very few have ever heard of Sabbatai Zevi, who declared himself the Messiah in 1666. By proclaiming redemption was available through acts of sin, he amassed a following of over one million passionate believers, about half the world's Jewish population during the 17th century.Although many Rabbis at the time considered him a heretic, his fame extended far and wide. Sabbatai's adherents planned to abolish many ritualistic observances, because, according to the Talmud, holy obligations would no longer apply in the Messianic time. Fasting days became days of feasting and rejoicing. Sabbateans encouraged and practiced sexual promiscuity, adultery, incest and religious orgies.After Sabbati Zevi's death in 1676, his Kabbalist successor, Jacob Frank, expanded upon and continued his occult philosophy. Frankism, a religious movement of the 18th and 19th centuries, centered on his leadership, and his claim to be the reincarnation of the Messiah Sabbatai Zevi. He, like Zevi, would perform "strange acts" that violated traditional religious taboos, such as eating fats forbidden by Jewish dietary laws, ritual sacrifice, and promoting orgies and sexual immorality. He often slept with his followers, as well as his own daughter, while preaching a doctrine that the best way to imitate God was to cross every boundary, transgress every taboo, and mix the sacred with the profane. Hebrew University of Jerusalem Professor Gershom Scholem called Jacob Frank, "one of the most frightening phenomena in the whole of Jewish history".Jacob Frank would eventually enter into an alliance formed by Adam Weishaupt and Meyer Amshel Rothschild called the Order of the Illuminati. The objectives of this organization was to undermine the world's religions and power structures, in an effort to usher in a utopian era of global communism, which they would covertly rule by their hidden hand: the New World Order. Using secret societies, such as the Freemasons, their agenda has played itself out over the centuries, staying true to the script. The Illuminati handle opposition by a near total control of the world's media, academic opinion leaders, politicians and financiers. Still considered nothing more than theory to many, more and more people wake up each day to the possibility that this is not just a theory, but a terrifying Satanic conspiracy.

This is the first English translation of this revolutionary essay by Vladimir I. Vernadsky, the great Russian-Ukrainian biogeochemist. It was first published in 1930 in French in the Revue générale des sciences pures et appliquées. In it, Vernadsky makes a powerful and provocative argument for the need to develop what he calls “a new physics,” something he felt was clearly necessitated by the implications of the groundbreaking work of Louis Pasteur among few others, but also something that was required to free science from the long-lasting effects of the work of Isaac Newton, most notably.
For hundreds of years, science had developed in a direction which became increasingly detached from the breakthroughs made in the study of life and the natural sciences, detached even from human life itself, and committed reductionists and small-minded scientists were resolved to the fact that ultimately all would be reduced to “the old physics.” The scientific revolution of Einstein was a step in the right direction, but here Vernadsky insists that there is more progress to be made. He makes a bold call for a new physics, taking into account, and fundamentally based upon, the striking anomalies of life and human life.

Using an inspired combination of geometric logic and metaphors from familiar human experience, Bucky invites readers to join him on a trip through a four-dimensional Universe, where concepts as diverse as entropy, Einstein's relativity equations, and the meaning of existence become clear, understandable, and immediately involving. In his own words: "Dare to be naive... It is one of our most exciting discoveries that local discovery leads to a complex of further discoveries." Here are three key examples or concepts from "Synergetics":

Tensegrity

Tensegrity, or tensional integrity, refers to structural systems that use a combination of tension and compression components. The simplest example of this is the "tensegrity triangle", where three struts are held in position not by touching one another but by tensioned wires. These systems are stable and flexible. Tensegrity structures are pervasive in natural systems, from the cellular level up to larger biological and even cosmological scales.

Vector Equilibrium (VE)

The Vector Equilibrium, often referred to by Fuller as the "VE", is a geometric form that he saw as the central form in his synergetic geometry. It’s essentially a cuboctahedron. Fuller noted that the VE is the only geometric form wherein all the vectors (lines from the center to the vertices) are of equal length and angular relationship. Because of this, it’s seen as a condition of absolute equilibrium, where the forces of push and pull are balanced.

Closest Packing of Spheres

Fuller was fascinated by how spheres could be packed together in the tightest possible configuration, a concept he often linked to how nature organizes systems. For example, when you stack oranges in a grocery store, they form a hexagonal pattern, and the spheres (oranges) are in closest-packed arrangement. Fuller related this principle to atomic structures and even cosmic organization.

To prepare Americans and freedom loving people everywhere for our current global wartime reality that few understand, here comes The Citizen's Guide to Fifth Generation Warfare (CG5GW) by Lieutenant General, U.S. Army (Retired) Michael T. Flynn and Sergeant, U.S. Army (Retired) Boone Cutler. General Flynn rose to the highest levels of the intelligence community and served as the National Security Advisor to the 45th POTUS. Sergeant Boone Cutler ran the ground game as a wartime Psychological Operations team sergeant in the United States Army. Together, these two combat veterans put their combined experience and expertise into an illuminating fifth-generation warfare information series called The Citizen's Guide to Fifth Generation Warfare. Introduction to 5GW is the first session of the multipart series. The series, complete with easy-to-understand diagrams, is written for all of humanity in every freedom loving country.

Vladimir I. Vernadsky (1863-1945) was a Russian and Ukrainian mineralogist and geochemist who is best known for his work on the biosphere and the noosphere concepts. His ideas have profoundly influenced various scientific fields, from geology to biology and even philosophy. Here's the summary of his one of his concepts:

Biosphere :

  • Vernadsky defined the biosphere as the thin layer of Earth where life exists, encompassing all living organisms and the parts of the Earth where they interact. This includes the depths of the oceans to the upper layers of the atmosphere.
  • He posited that life plays a critical role in transforming the Earth's environment. In this view, living organisms are not just passive inhabitants of the planet, but active agents of change. This idea contrasts with more traditional views that saw life as simply adapting to pre-existing environmental conditions.
  • One example of this transformative power is the oxygen-rich atmosphere, which was created by photosynthesizing organisms over billions of years.

It's worth noting that Vernadsky's ideas were formulated in a period when the world was experiencing rapid technological changes and were before the advent of concerns about global challenges like climate change. Today, his ideas can be seen in a new light, as we recognize the significant impact human activity has on the planet, from the changing climate to the alteration of biogeochemical cycles. Overall, Vernadsky's thesis about the biosphere and the noosphere offers a holistic perspective on the evolution of the Earth and humanity's role in that evolution. It emphasizes the profound interconnectedness between life, the environment, and human cognition and culture.

Noosphere :

  • The concept of the noosphere can be seen as the next evolutionary stage following the biosphere. While the biosphere represents the realm of life, the noosphere represents the realm of human thought.
  • Vernadsky believed that, just as life transformed the Earth through the biosphere, human thought and collective intelligence would transform the planet in the era of the noosphere. This transformation would be characterized by the dominance of cultural evolution over biological evolution.
  • In this paradigm, human knowledge, technology, and cultural developments would become the primary drivers of change on the planet, influencing its future direction.
  • The term "noosphere" is derived from the Greek word “nous” meaning "mind" or "intellect" and "sphaira" meaning "sphere." So, the noosphere can be thought of as the "sphere of human thought."

A close analysis of the architecture of the stupa―a Buddhist symbolic form that is found throughout South, Southeast, and East Asia. The author, who trained as an architect, examines both the physical and metaphysical levels of these buildings, which derive their meaning and significance from Buddhist and Brahmanist influences.

Building on his extensive research into the sacred symbols and creation myths of the Dogon of Africa and those of ancient Egypt, India, and Tibet, Laird Scranton investigates the myths, symbols, and traditions of prehistoric China, providing further evidence that the cosmology of all ancient cultures arose from a single now-lost source.

It is at the same time a history of language, a guide to foreign tongues, and a method for learning them. It shows, through basic vocabularies, family resemblances of languages―Teutonic, Romance, Greek―helpful tricks of translation, key combinations of roots and phonetic patterns. It presents by common-sense methods the most helpful approach to the mastery of many languages; it condenses vocabulary to a minimum of essential words; it simplifies grammar in an entirely new way; and it teaches a languages as it is actually used in everyday life.
But this book is more than a guide to foreign languages; it goes deep into the roots of all knowledge as it explores the history of speech. It lights up the dim pathways of prehistory and unfolds the story of the slow growth of human expression from the most primitive signs and sounds to the elaborate variations of the highest cultures. Without language no knowledge would be possible; here we see how language is at once the source and the reservoir of all we know.

Taking only the most elementary knowledge for granted, Lancelot Hogben leads readers of this famous book through the whole course from simple arithmetic to calculus. His illuminating explanation is addressed to the person who wants to understand the place of mathematics in modern civilization but who has been intimidated by its supposed difficulty. Mathematics is the language of size, shape, and order―a language Hogben shows one can both master and enjoy.

A complete manual for the study and practice of Raja Yoga, the path of concentration and meditation. These timeless teachings is a treasure to be read and referred to again and again by seekers treading the spiritual path. The classic Sutras, at least 4,000 years old, cover the yogic teachings on ethics, meditation, and physical postures, and provide directions for dealing with situations in daily life. The Sutras are presented here in the purest form, with the original Sanskrit and with translation, transliteration, and commentary by Sri Swami Satchidananda, one of the most respected and revered contemporary Yoga masters. Sri Swamiji offers practical advice based on his own experience for mastering the mind and achieving physical, mental and emotional harmony.

William Strauss and Neil Howe will change the way you see the world - and your place in it. With blazing originality, The Fourth Turning illuminates the past, explains the present, and reimagines the future. Most remarkably, it offers an utterly persuasive prophecy about how America’s past will predict its future.

Strauss and Howe base this vision on a provocative theory of American history. The authors look back 500 years and uncover a distinct pattern: Modern history moves in cycles, each one lasting about the length of a long human life, each composed of four eras - or "turnings" - that last about 20 years and that always arrive in the same order. In The Fourth Turning, the authors illustrate these cycles using a brilliant analysis of the post-World War II period.

First comes a High, a period of confident expansion as a new order takes root after the old has been swept away. Next comes an Awakening, a time of spiritual exploration and rebellion against the now-established order. Then comes an Unraveling, an increasingly troubled era in which individualism triumphs over crumbling institutions. Last comes a Crisis - the Fourth Turning - when society passes through a great and perilous gate in history. Together, the four turnings comprise history's seasonal rhythm of growth, maturation, entropy, and rebirth.

4th Turning

Excess Deaths & Why RFK Jr. Can Win The Democratic Presidential Race - Ed Dowd | Part 1 of 2 - 06-21-2023

All original edition. Nothing added, nothing removed. This book traces the history of the ancient Khazar Empire, a major but almost forgotten power in Eastern Europe, which in the Dark Ages became converted to Judaism. Khazaria was finally wiped out by the forces of Genghis Khan, but evidence indicates that the Khazars themselves migrated to Poland and formed the cradle of Western Jewry. To the general reader the Khazars, who flourished from the 7th to 11th century, may seem infinitely remote today. Yet they have a close and unexpected bearing on our world, which emerges as Koestler recounts the fascinating history of the ancient Khazar Empire.

At about the time that Charlemagne was Emperor in the West. The Khazars' sway extended from the Black Sea to the Caspian, from the Caucasus to the Volga, and they were instrumental in stopping the Muslim onslaught against Byzantium, the eastern jaw of the gigantic pincer movement that in the West swept across northern Africa and into Spain.Thereafter the Khazars found themselves in a precarious position between the two major world powers: the Eastern Roman Empire in Byzantium and the triumphant followers of Mohammed.As Koestler points out, the Khazars were the Third World of their day. They chose a surprising method of resisting both the Western pressure to become Christian and the Eastern to adopt Islam. Rejecting both, they converted to Judaism. Mr. Koestler speculates about the ultimate faith of the Khazars and their impact on the racial composition and social heritage of modern Jewry.

Few people noticed the secret codewords used by our astronauts to describe the moon. Until now, few knew about the strange moving lights they reported.
George H. Leonard, former NASA scientist, fought through the official veil of secrecy and studied thousands of NASA photographs, spoke candidly with dozens of NASA officials, and listened to hours and hours of astronauts' tapes.
Here, Leonard presents the stunning and inescapable evidence discovered during his in-depth investigation:

  • Immense mechanical rigs, some over a mile long, working the lunar surface.
  • Strange geometric ground markings and symbols.
  • Lunar constructions several times higher than anything built on Earth.
  • Vehicles, tracks, towers, pipes, conduits, and conveyor belts running in and across moon craters.
Somebody else is indeed on the Moon, and engaged in activities on a massive scale. Our space agencies, and many of the world's top scientists, have known for years that there is intelligent life on the moon.

The article delves into the history of the Khazars, a polity in the Northern Caucasus that existed from the mid-seventh century until about 970 CE. Contrary to popular belief, the term "Khazars" is misleading as it was a multiethnic entity, and it's uncertain which specific group adopted Judaism. The Khazars first emerged in the seventh century, defeating the Bulgars, which led to the Bulgars' dispersion to various regions. The Khazar Empire was established through the expulsion of the Bulgars and was multiethnic in nature. The language spoken by the Khazars is debated, with some suggesting Turkic origins and others pointing to Slavic. The Khazars had several cities and fortresses, with significant archaeological findings. The Khazars had interactions with various empires, including wars with the Arabs and alliances with Byzantine emperors. By the mid-10th century, the Khazar capital of Itil was destroyed by the Russians. The article concludes that much of what is known about the Khazars is based on limited sources.

In The Science of the Dogon, Laird Scranton demonstrated that the cosmological structure described in the myths and drawings of the Dogon runs parallel to modern science--atomic theory, quantum theory, and string theory--their drawings often taking the same form as accurate scientific diagrams that relate to the formation of matter.

Sacred Symbols of the Dogon uses these parallels as the starting point for a new interpretation of the Egyptian hieroglyphic language. By substituting Dogon cosmological drawings for equivalent glyph-shapes in Egyptian words, a new way of reading and interpreting the Egyptian hieroglyphs emerges. Scranton shows how each hieroglyph constitutes an entire concept, and that their meanings are scientific in nature.

The Dogon people of Mali, West Africa, are famous for their unique art and advanced cosmology. The Dogon’s creation story describes how the one true god, Amma, created all the matter of the universe. Interestingly, the myths that depict his creative efforts bear a striking resemblance to the modern scientific definitions of matter, beginning with the atom and continuing all the way to the vibrating threads of string theory. Furthermore, many of the Dogon words, symbols, and rituals used to describe the structure of matter are quite similar to those found in the myths of ancient Egypt and in the daily rituals of Judaism. For example, the modern scientific depiction of the informed universe as a black hole is identical to Amma’s Egg of the Dogon and the Egyptian Benben Stone.

The Science of the Dogon offers a case-by-case comparison of Dogon descriptions and drawings to corresponding scientific definitions and diagrams from authors like Stephen Hawking and Brian Greene, then extends this analysis to the counterparts of these symbols in both the ancient Egyptian and Hebrew religions. What is ultimately revealed is the scientific basis for the language of the Egyptian hieroglyphs, which was deliberately encoded to prevent the knowledge of these concepts from falling into the hands of all but the highest members of the Egyptian priesthood.

Anthony C. Yu’s translation of The Journey to the West,initially published in 1983, introduced English-speaking audiences to the classic Chinese novel in its entirety for the first time. Written in the sixteenth century, The Journey to the West tells the story of the fourteen-year pilgrimage of the monk Xuanzang, one of China’s most famous religious heroes, and his three supernatural disciples, in search of Buddhist scriptures. Throughout his journey, Xuanzang fights demons who wish to eat him, communes with spirits, and traverses a land riddled with a multitude of obstacles, both real and fantastical. An adventure rich with danger and excitement, this seminal work of the Chinese literary canonis by turns allegory, satire, and fantasy.

With over a hundred chapters written in both prose and poetry, The Journey to the West has always been a complicated and difficult text to render in English while preserving the lyricism of its language and the content of its plot. But Yu has successfully taken on the task, and in this new edition he has made his translations even more accurate and accessible. The explanatory notes are updated and augmented, and Yu has added new material to his introduction, based on his original research as well as on the newest literary criticism and scholarship on Chinese religious traditions. He has also modernized the transliterations included in each volume, using the now-standard Hanyu Pinyin romanization system. Perhaps most important, Yu has made changes to the translation itself in order to make it as precise as possible.

One of the great works of Chinese literature, The Journey to the West is not only invaluable to scholars of Eastern religion and literature, but, in Yu’s elegant rendering, also a delight for any reader.

The Oera Linda Book is a 19th-century translation by Dr. Ottema and WIlliam R. Sandbach of an old manuscript written in the Old Frisian language that records historical, mythological, and religious themes of remote antiquity, compiled between 2194 BC and AD 803.

  • The Oera Linda book challenges traditional views of pre-Christian societies.
  • Christianization is likened to a "great reset" that erased previous civilizations.
  • The Fryan language provides insights into the beliefs and values of the Fryan people.
  • The cyclical nature of time is emphasized, suggesting patterns in history.
  • The importance of identity and understanding one's roots is highlighted.
  • The Oera Linda book offers wisdom and insights into several European languages.

The Oera Linda book offers a fresh perspective on our history, challenging the notion that pre-Christian societies were uncivilized. It suggests that the Christianization of societies was a form of "great reset," erasing and demonizing what existed before. The Oera Linda writings hint at an advanced civilization with its own laws, writing, and societal structures. Jan Ott's translation from the Fryan language provides insights into the beliefs and values of the Fryan people. The text also touches upon the guilt many feel today, even if they aren't religious, about issues like climate change and historical slavery. It criticizes the way science is sometimes treated like a religion, with scientists acting as its preachers. The cyclical nature of time is emphasized, suggesting that understanding history requires recognizing patterns and cycles. Christianity is portrayed as one of the most significant resets in history, with sects fighting and erasing each other's scriptures. The importance of identity is highlighted, with a focus on the Fryans, a tribe that faced challenges from another tribe from Finland. This other tribe had a different moral compass, leading to conflicts and eventual assimilation. The text suggests that the true history of the Fryans and their values might have been distorted by subsequent Christian narratives. The Oera Linda book is seen as a source of wisdom, shedding light on the origins of several European languages and offering insights into values like freedom, truth, and justice.

The Talmud is one of the most important holy books of the Hebrew religion and of the world. No English translation of the book existed until the author presented this work. To this day, very little of the actual text seems available in English -- although we find many interpretive commentaries on what it is supposed to mean. The Talmud has a reputation for being long and difficult to digest, but Polano has taken what he believes to be the best material and put it into extremely readable form. As far as holy books of the world are concerned, it is on par with The Koran, The Bhagavad-Gita and, of course, The Bible, in importance. This clearly written edition will allow many to experience The Talmud who may have otherwise not had the chance.

This five-volume set is the only complete English rendering of The Zohar, the fundamental rabbinic work on Jewish mysticism that has fascinated readers for more than seven centuries. In addition to being the primary reference text for kabbalistic studies, this magnificent work is arranged in the form of a commentary on the Bible, bringing to the surface the deeper meanings behind the commandments and biblical narrative. As The Zohar itself proclaims: Woe unto those who see in the Law nothing but simple narratives and ordinary words .... Every word of the Law contains an elevated sense and a sublime mystery .... The narratives of the Law are but the raiment Thin which it is swathed.

Twenty-one years ago, at a friend's request, a Massachusetts professor sketched out a blueprint for nonviolent resistance to repressive regimes. It would go on to be translated, photocopied, and handed from one activist to another, traveling from country to country across the globe: from Iran to Venezuela―where both countries consider Gene Sharp to be an enemy of the state―to Serbia; Afghanistan; Vietnam; the former Soviet Union; China; Nepal; and, more recently and notably, Tunisia, Egypt, Yemen, Libya, and Syria, where it has served as a guiding light of the Arab Spring.

This short, pithy, inspiring, and extraordinarily clear guide to overthrowing a dictatorship by nonviolent means lists 198 specific methods to consider, depending on the circumstances: sit-ins, popular nonobedience, selective strikes, withdrawal of bank deposits, revenue refusal, walkouts, silence, and hunger strikes. From Dictatorship to Democracy is the remarkable work that has made the little-known Sharp into the world's most effective and sought-after analyst of resistance to authoritarian regimes.

Bill Cooper, former United States Naval Intelligence Briefing Team member, reveals information that remains hidden from the public eye. This information has been kept in topsecret government files since the 1940s. His audiences hear the truth unfold as he writes about the assassination of John F. Kennedy, the war on drugs, the secret government, and UFOs. Bill is a lucid, rational, and powerful speaker whose intent is to inform and to empower his audience. Standing room only is normal. His presentation and information transcend partisan affiliations as he clearly addresses issues in a way that has a striking impact on listeners of all backgrounds and interests. He has spoken to many groups throughout the United States and has appeared regularly on many radio talk shows and on television. In 1988 Bill decided to "talk" due to events then taking place worldwide, events that he had seen plans for back in the early 1970s. Bill correctly predicted the lowering of the Iron Curtain, the fall of the Berlin Wall, and the invasion of Panama. All Bill's predictions were on record well before the events occurred. Bill is not a psychic. His information comes from top secret documents that he read while with the Intelligence Briefing Team and from over seventeen years of research.

The argument that the 16th Amendment (which concerns the federal income tax) was not properly ratified and thus is invalid has been a topic of debate among some tax protesters and scholars. One of the individuals associated with this theory is Bill Benson, who asserted that the 16th Amendment was fraudulently ratified. Here's a brief overview of the argument: 1. Research and Documentation: Bill Benson, along with another individual named M.J. "Red" Beckman, wrote a two-volume work called "The Law That Never Was" in the 1980s. This work was a product of Benson's extensive travels to various state archives to examine the original ratification documents related to the 16th Amendment. 2. Claims of Irregularities: In his work, Benson presented evidence that claimed many of the states either did not ratify the 16th Amendment properly or made mistakes in their resolutions. Some of these alleged irregularities included misspellings, incorrect wording, and other deviations from the proposed amendment. 3. Philander Knox's Role: In 1913, Philander Knox, who was the U.S. Secretary of State at the time, declared that the 16th Amendment had been ratified by the necessary three-fourths of the states. Benson's contention is that Knox was aware of the various discrepancies and irregularities in the ratification process but chose to fraudulently declare the amendment ratified anyway. 4. Legal Challenges and Court Rulings: Over the years, some tax protesters have used Benson's findings to challenge the legality of the income tax. However, these challenges have been consistently rejected by the courts. In fact, several courts have addressed Benson's research and arguments directly and found them to be without legal merit. The courts have repeatedly upheld the validity of the 16th Amendment. 5. Counterarguments: Critics of Benson's theory argue that even if there were minor discrepancies in the wording or format of the ratification documents, they do not invalidate the overarching intent of the states to ratify the amendment. Additionally, they assert that there's no substantive evidence that Knox acted fraudulently. It's worth noting that despite the popularity of this theory among certain groups, the legal consensus in the U.S. is that the 16th Amendment was validly ratified and is a legitimate part of the U.S. Constitution. Those who refuse to pay income taxes based on this theory have faced legal penalties.

The article delves into the evolution of the concept of the ether in physics. Historically, the ether was postulated to explain the propagation of light, with figures like Newton and Huygens suggesting its existence. By the late 19th century, Maxwell's electromagnetic theory linked light's propagation to the ether, a theory experimentally validated by Hertz in 1888. Lorentz expanded on this, focusing on wave transmission in moving media. The article contrasts the English approach, which sought tangible models, with the phenomenological view, which aimed for a descriptive approach without specific hypotheses. The piece also touches on various mechanical theories and models proposed over the years, emphasizing the challenges in defining the ether's properties and its evolving nature in scientific discourse.

Fucking Stalkers - 11-09-2023

Hello humans. Hello humans. 1 November I'm having to alter things here in that I can't it's unwise for me to discuss my activities. I've got a couple of very aggressive stalkers and some people are really pissed at me. So I've got to be circumspected about what I'm doing and where I'm going and things, right?

Just is the way it is at this particular point in time.

So probably I will be forced to alter my patterns quite considerably. And these audios may not get done. They may fall off. I may not have the ability to do it given the stuff I'm dealing with at the moment.

I'm not as badass as like, Max Egan, right? So like, the Israelis have Max Egan targeted, governments have Max targeted, you know, the Israelis are pissed at me, but it's not like I went to Gaza, like, you know, so it's like the Israelis, the Zealand, you know, they've all taken actions trying to get our government to do shit to me.

But like I say, it's not as bad as Max Egan where they have a hurricane or tornado like drive right over the top of your house and destroy everything you own. It's not quite that bad. Nonetheless, I'm still getting ration of shit from some people as a result of speaking out. So I've got people I've got to watch out for. I've got to take precautions and ratchet my paranoia up and not go into details and stuff.

However, it's quite probable that we're going to be relocating. Okay? And I won't go into details on that either. It has less to do with stalkers, though, than very bad decisions made by the guy we hired as a contractor. And basically I didn't supervise him because that was a period of time when I was actively dying.

That was like six months of actively dying from the cancer. And I was just able to hold it together for 3 hours a day physically to get a little bit of stuff done. Through great huge amounts of effort, I was able to move and get us here. And I basically didn't care a lot about the investigating, the quality of work and so on because I was dying. And then shortly thereafter let me see.

And so five months after we moved, I ended up dying, right? And then there was a year and a half of absolute hell trying to figure out how to recover. And then once I started getting a little bit ahead of it and getting a little bit of my mind back, then there was another couple of years of actually doing the work of recovery. And then in the midst of all that shit, there was COVID. So anyway, we end up with a lot of very bad work on the house we're in.

And it's so bad that it's going to require major renovations. And so we're in the process of relocating because we can't live there while this is ongoing royal pain, right? Didn't want to have to move again, but I have to move again at least twice, really, because we want to come back here, right? The view is spectacular, but just can't live there with the shit work that was done and the house degrading on us already. In any event, though, so major changes for us.

I won't be doing things in the more regular pattern that I had been doing them simply because it makes it too predictable and too easy for me to be targeted by these fucking stalkers. And it's annoying, but at this stage, I've got to go around armed, all right? So these stalkers are not nice.

It's I'm not like dick algae where the Chinese send Chinese honeypot women to try and seduce him into doing work for them, right? I don't have that. I don't have that luxury. I got some pretty ugly stalkers coming after me anyway. This last guy is just a real piece of work.

All right, so we're doing a bunch of stuff. We've got our old farts out looking at language and things. We've come up with some new discoveries. If I get an opportunity, I'll go into those. They get into some of the really interesting information with the psychic business, right?

And we're actually getting into the point where we're doing experiments. So I'm going to do more later on. But we're doing some experiments with Shungite at the moment, especially relative to its effect on psychic ability. Now, we don't know what that is, right? In terms of what the effect is.

We know it has an effect. We know that if you wear the Shungite and you do remote viewing, you have better remote viewing, you have more accurate remote viewing, you have more available to you. The experience is a little bit more pleasant, all kinds of things, right. Relative to the remote viewing. Now we have factual information relative to Shungite that it shuts down or impacts the ability of electromagnetic fields to get into your body.

So if you put the Shungite between you and the electromagnetic magnetic field, the Shungite appears to act as, like, an electromagnetic sponge in that it sucks it up, and it doesn't go into your body. So you can wear a Shungite. You can put little tiny shungite things on your phone, and it'll suck up all the electromagnetic radiation of your phone or your laptop or whatever and retain it there, and it shrinks the effective electromagnetic field bubble. So this is a very interesting phenomena that we're investigating at a relatively scientific basis, although our point is to get on and try and figure out what parameters affect its ability to interact with your psychicness, right? So we've got a whole bunch of experiments planned.

Apparently, the Russians are like, okay, so there's some level of investigation at the scientific level within the Russian Society of Shungite, pretty much along the electromagnetic radiation deal, along those lines but they may also be investigating its ability to ramp up psychicness. We say this because some of the old farts are expat Americans, a Greek or a Frenchman living in Russia, right? So they're aware of things that are going on in Russia. One of them is really tied into the psychic community, into Russia, and he's located some stuff that suggests that the Russians are of the opinion that it may be worthwhile to ban the sale of Karelian Shungite. This is the only Shungite there is, right?

It's this meteor that came down and smacked into northern Russia and we've been mining it ever since. And it's really interesting mineral in a lot of ways. Anyway, so our guy in Russia has been getting information about a telepathy experiment that's been ongoing. And this telepathy experiment is involving children and young adults, like in their very late teens, early twenty s, that are siblings that have apparently been previously identified as having some level of psychic ability. And then I don't know all the details.

We know that they've been given shungite to wear 24 hours a day, so little bracelets and that they have medallions and stuff, and that the Shungite is being used in, I guess we'd call them devices, really, sort of like boxy things that I'm not really sure the intent, we don't have a decent description of that. But they're apparently attempting to set up an enclosed space created by the Shungite set into the room, and it's got sensors in it internally. How those sensors are relaying information out, I don't know. I don't know if it's wired, I don't know if the wires are insulated. I don't know any of the details that way.

We just have this high level discussion of the results of this thing that have been reported part of the telepathy experiment. But apparently the telepathy experiments are pretty fantastically positive in the sense that telepathic abilities where people already had them to some demonstrable degree, go way the fuck through the roof with this Shungite protocol. And so this is sort of the kind of thing that the remote viewers experience when they get involved with shungite. In fact, some of the remote viewers can only have exposure to shungite for a certain percentage of the day, and they sort of like get too agitated. It affects them at a physicalemotional level, and so they have to limit their exposure to it.

So anyway, it's an interesting mineral for us to be investigating and is yielding some positive results in our investigations as well. So right now we're approaching this from a physical parameter viewpoint we haven't gotten yet to the point of designing psychic experiments, although we're sort of noodling with that and making some discussions about how to proceed. Our issues, of course, are that most of us are separated by thousands of miles, if not whole continents.

So it's going to be difficult to arrange things in a reasonably orderly fashion for doing these kind of psychic experiments. Usually they're done in, like, the same building kind of thing. Right.

Anyway, so, yeah, some craziness here on the roads.

Okay. Anyway, so I'll report on our Shungite experiments as we go forward. So far, we have not had any disappointing results at all, and it's actually quite remarkable the level of activity that the Shungite presents. So you can have a magnetic field source and use, like, a trivalent electromagnetic field sensor, and you might get a combined reading of, say, 112 on the field. Right?

This is one set of numbers we've actually encountered here with a very strong electromagnetic field. And you put Shungite in front of it or in between it and the sensing meter, and the sensing meter's ability to get that field drops down from 112 down to two. Okay? So very little of that electromagnetic field is coming through. In fact, it is what I would think of as, like, being subcritical, in the sense that just walking around in a non electromagnetic, field filled environment.

So if you're just, like, outside, you're walking along on the side of the street, there's the power lines up above you, you might be exposed to a field that was as low as two or less. Right. So this are very low levels of electromagnetic radiation to be subjected to. Very low indeed. And it's sustainable.

Once the Shungite is there, that's the maximum level of field you get. It fluctuates slightly. It fluctuates. Even if the field is reasonably stable, and the Shungite is stable, there's still some level of fluctuation of the interaction of the field with the Shungite material. Now, the interesting part is that the size of the Shungite does not really matter that much.

You can get it down to the point where it's not effective. So if you take these Shungite medallions and you crack them into lots of little bits, and you put all the little bits into, like a plastic sack or something, and hold that plastic sack of shattered Shungite fragments in front of the electromagnetic field, it still works. And at some point, taking out one piece at a time, one piece at a time kind of thing, you will get down to the level of reduced mass to where the Shungite has no measurable effect. In our experiments here, we can take a four gram bit of Shungite, which is not very much at all, and it's a very thin, wafer like thing, a little wafer medallion. Crack it up into dozens of pieces because it doesn't crack evenly.

You can slice it, you can treat it as a mineral, but you create it's like a jewelry mineral, but you create lots and lots and lots of debris and residue because of the flaking and so on. It's a very flaky material. Anyway, so the cool thing about the Shungite is that even at these reduced levels, so if you get out of the 4 grams, if we get it down to just a little over a third of a gram, it stops working, right? But if you put it back up to a half a gram, that is to say, you return some of the dust. There you go.

It starts working again and then even at its minimalist level, so you've got electromagnetic field at 112 and you take your cracked up bits of Shungite medallion and you take them down to the absolute minimum that is able to be felt, so to speak, a measured field response and you take it down to that. Then you can increase that magnetic field basically as much as you want and you still get the same level of reduction effect within as a result of the Shungui.

You can raise it up to 145, 212, 280. It does not seem to make any difference. And we have not, with our crude level of equipment anyway, been able to come up with a road closures.

We haven't been able to come up with a large enough field that would overwhelm the Shungite. So Shungite medallion apparently is as effective against an electromagnetic field from a computer as it is from an electromagnetic field from a power plant. Just really interesting the way that it operates at scale, as I say, I think of it as a sponge pulling in the electromagnetic field and isolating you from it. This works with little tiny bits of Shungite dust that have been put into a little sticky that you can put on the back of your laptop or on the back of your phone, and you totally reduce the amount of electromagnetic field that's coming out of there just by that dust. Okay, so I'm going to have to get off here and do some other stuff.

Anyway, when we figure out, or if we figure out why this is affecting things like psychic ability, you can be certain that we'll be shouting this out from the rooftops because it's really fascinating and there is something there. It's really solid work that it does affect your psychic ability as well as just regular electromagnetic fields. Okay, anyway, got to go, guys. Got some stuff here and it's strange times.

The bible for bringing cutting-edge products to larger markets—now revised and updated with new insights into the realities of high-tech marketing In Crossing the Chasm, Geoffrey A. Moore shows that in the Technology Adoption Life Cycle—which begins with innovators and moves to early adopters, early majority, late majority, and laggards—there is a vast chasm between the early adopters and the early majority. While early adopters are willing to sacrifice for the advantage of being first, the early majority waits until they know that the technology actually offers improvements in productivity. The challenge for innovators and marketers is to narrow this chasm and ultimately accelerate adoption across every segment. This third edition brings Moore's classic work up to date with dozens of new examples of successes and failures, new strategies for marketing in the digital world, and Moore's most current insights and findings. He also includes two new appendices, the first connecting the ideas in Crossing the Chasm to work subsequently published in his Inside the Tornado, and the second presenting his recent groundbreaking work for technology adoption models for high-tech consumer markets.

Endless terror. Refugee waves. An unfixable global economy. Surprising election results. New billion-dollar fortunes. Miracle medical advances. What if they were all connected? What if you could understand why? The Seventh Sense is the story of what all of today's successful figures see and feel: the forces that are invisible to most of us but explain everything from explosive technological change to uneasy political ripples. The secret to power now is understanding our new age of networks. Not merely the Internet, but also webs of trade, finance, and even DNA. Based on his years of advising generals, CEOs, and politicians, Ramo takes us into the opaque heart of our world's rapidly connected systems and teaches us what the losers are not yet seeing -- and what the victors of this age already know.

This lushly illustrated history of popular entertainment takes a long-zoom approach, contending that the pursuit of novelty and wonder is a powerful driver of world-shaping technological change. Steven Johnson argues that, throughout history, the cutting edge of innovation lies wherever people are working the hardest to keep themselves and others amused. Johnson’s storytelling is just as delightful as the inventions he describes, full of surprising stops along the journey from simple concepts to complex modern systems. He introduces us to the colorful innovators of leisure: the explorers, proprietors, showmen, and artists who changed the trajectory of history with their luxurious wares, exotic meals, taverns, gambling tables, and magic shows. In Wonderland, Johnson compellingly argues that observers of technological and social trends should be looking for clues in novel amusements. You’ll find the future wherever people are having the most fun.

Nothing “goes viral.” If you think a popular movie, song, or app came out of nowhere to become a word-of-mouth success in today’s crowded media environment, you’re missing the real story. Each blockbuster has a secret history—of power, influence, dark broadcasters, and passionate cults that turn some new products into cultural phenomena. Even the most brilliant ideas wither in obscurity if they fail to connect with the right network, and the consumers that matter most aren't the early adopters, but rather their friends, followers, and imitators -- the audience of your audience. In his groundbreaking investigation, Atlantic senior editor Derek Thompson uncovers the hidden psychology of why we like what we like and reveals the economics of cultural markets that invisibly shape our lives. Shattering the sentimental myths of hit-making that dominate pop culture and business, Thompson shows quality is insufficient for success, nobody has "good taste," and some of the most popular products in history were one bad break away from utter failure. It may be a new world, but there are some enduring truths to what audiences and consumers want. People love a familiar surprise: a product that is bold, yet sneakily recognizable. Every business, every artist, every person looking to promote themselves and their work wants to know what makes some works so successful while others disappear. Hit Makers is a magical mystery tour through the last century of pop culture blockbusters and the most valuable currency of the twenty-first century—people’s attention. From the dawn of impressionist art to the future of Facebook, from small Etsy designers to the origin of Star Wars, Derek Thompson leaves no pet rock unturned to tell the fascinating story of how culture happens and why things become popular. In Hit Makers, Derek Thompson investigates: · The secret link between ESPN's sticky programming and the The Weeknd's catchy choruses · Why Facebook is today’s most important newspaper · How advertising critics predicted Donald Trump · The 5th grader who accidentally launched "Rock Around the Clock," the biggest hit in rock and roll history · How Barack Obama and his speechwriters think of themselves as songwriters · How Disney conquered the world—but the future of hits belongs to savvy amateurs and individuals · The French collector who accidentally created the Impressionist canon · Quantitative evidence that the biggest music hits aren’t always the best · Why almost all Hollywood blockbusters are sequels, reboots, and adaptations · Why one year--1991--is responsible for the way pop music sounds today · Why another year --1932--created the business model of film · How data scientists proved that “going viral” is a myth · How 19th century immigration patterns explain the most heard song in the Western Hemisphere

Ours is often called an information economy, but at a moment when access to information is virtually unlimited, our attention has become the ultimate commodity. In nearly every moment of our waking lives, we face a barrage of efforts to harvest our attention. This condition is not simply the byproduct of recent technological innovations but the result of more than a century's growth and expansion in the industries that feed on human attention. Wu’s narrative begins in the nineteenth century, when Benjamin Day discovered he could get rich selling newspapers for a penny. Since then, every new medium—from radio to television to Internet companies such as Google and Facebook—has attained commercial viability and immense riches by turning itself into an advertising platform. Since the early days, the basic business model of “attention merchants” has never changed: free diversion in exchange for a moment of your time, sold in turn to the highest-bidding advertiser. Full of lively, unexpected storytelling and piercing insight, The Attention Merchants lays bare the true nature of a ubiquitous reality we can no longer afford to accept at face value.

Some people think that in today’s hyper-competitive world, it’s the tough, take-no-prisoners type who comes out on top. But in reality, argues New York Times bestselling author Dave Kerpen, it’s actually those with the best people skills who win the day. Those who build the right relationships. Those who truly understand and connect with their colleagues, their customers, their partners. Those who can teach, lead, and inspire. In a world where we are constantly connected, and social media has become the primary way we communicate, the key to getting ahead is being the person others like, respect, and trust. Because no matter who you are or what profession you're in, success is contingent less on what you can do for yourself, but on what other people are willing to do for you. Here, through 53 bite-sized, easy-to-execute, and often counterintuitive tips, you’ll learn to master the 11 People Skills that will get you more of what you want at work, at home, and in life. For example, you’ll learn: · The single most important question you can ever ask to win attention in a meeting · The one simple key to networking that nobody talks about · How to remain top of mind for thousands of people, everyday · Why it usually pays to be the one to give the bad news · How to blow off the right people · And why, when in doubt, buy him a Bonsai A book best described as “How to Win Friends and Influence People for today’s world,” The Art of People shows how to charm and win over anyone to be more successful at work and outside of it.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER If you want to build a better future, you must believe in secrets. The great secret of our time is that there are still uncharted frontiers to explore and new inventions to create. In Zero to One, legendary entrepreneur and investor Peter Thiel shows how we can find singular ways to create those new things. Thiel begins with the contrarian premise that we live in an age of technological stagnation, even if we’re too distracted by shiny mobile devices to notice. Information technology has improved rapidly, but there is no reason why progress should be limited to computers or Silicon Valley. Progress can be achieved in any industry or area of business. It comes from the most important skill that every leader must master: learning to think for yourself. Doing what someone else already knows how to do takes the world from 1 to n, adding more of something familiar. But when you do something new, you go from 0 to 1. The next Bill Gates will not build an operating system. The next Larry Page or Sergey Brin won’t make a search engine. Tomorrow’s champions will not win by competing ruthlessly in today’s marketplace. They will escape competition altogether, because their businesses will be unique. Zero to One presents at once an optimistic view of the future of progress in America and a new way of thinking about innovation: it starts by learning to ask the questions that lead you to find value in unexpected places.

Why should I do business with you… and not your competitor? Whether you are a retailer, manufacturer, distributor, or service provider – if you cannot answer this question, you are surely losing customers, clients and market share. This eye-opening book reveals how identifying your competitive advantages (and trumpeting them to the marketplace) is the most surefire way to close deals, retain clients, and stay miles ahead of the competition. The five fatal flaws of most companies: • They don’t have a competitive advantage but think they do • They have a competitive advantage but don’t know what it is—so they lower prices instead • They know what their competitive advantage is but neglect to tell clients about it • They mistake “strengths” for competitive advantages • They don’t concentrate on competitive advantages when making strategic and operational decisions The good news is that you can overcome these costly mistakes – by identifying your competitive advantages and creating new ones. Consultant, public speaker, and competitive advantage expert Jaynie Smith will show you how scores of small and large companies substantially increased their sales by focusing on their competitive advantages. When advising a CEO frustrated by his salespeople’s inability to close deals, Smith discovered that his company stayed on schedule 95 percent of the time – an achievement no one else in his industry could claim. By touting this and other competitive advantages to customers, closing rates increased by 30 percent—and so did company revenues. Jack Welch has said, “If you don’t have a competitive advantage, don’t compete.” This straight-to-the-point book is filled with insightful stories and specific steps on how to pinpoint your competitive advantages, develop new ones, and get the message out about them.

The number one New York Times best seller that examines how people can champion new ideas in their careers and everyday life - and how leaders can fight groupthink, from the author of Think Again and co-author of Option B. With Give and Take, Adam Grant not only introduced a landmark new paradigm for success but also established himself as one of his generation’s most compelling and provocative thought leaders. In Originals he again addresses the challenge of improving the world, but now from the perspective of becoming original: choosing to champion novel ideas and values that go against the grain, battle conformity, and buck outdated traditions. How can we originate new ideas, policies, and practices without risking it all? Using surprising studies and stories spanning business, politics, sports, and entertainment, Grant explores how to recognize a good idea, speak up without getting silenced, build a coalition of allies, choose the right time to act, and manage fear and doubt; how parents and teachers can nurture originality in children; and how leaders can build cultures that welcome dissent. Learn from an entrepreneur who pitches his start-ups by highlighting the reasons not to invest, a woman at Apple who challenged Steve Jobs from three levels below, an analyst who overturned the rule of secrecy at the CIA, a billionaire financial wizard who fires employees for failing to criticize him, and a TV executive who didn’t even work in comedy but saved Seinfeld from the cutting-room floor. The payoff is a set of groundbreaking insights about rejecting conformity and improving the status quo.

In The $100 Startup, Chris Guillebeau tells you how to lead of life of adventure, meaning and purpose - and earn a good living. Still in his early 30s, Chris is on the verge of completing a tour of every country on earth - he's already visited more than 175 nations - and yet he’s never held a "real job" or earned a regular paycheck. Rather, he has a special genius for turning ideas into income, and he uses what he earns both to support his life of adventure and to give back. There are many others like Chris - those who've found ways to opt out of traditional employment and create the time and income to pursue what they find meaningful. Sometimes, achieving that perfect blend of passion and income doesn't depend on shelving what you currently do. You can start small with your venture, committing little time or money, and wait to take the real plunge when you're sure it's successful. In preparing to write this book, Chris identified 1,500 individuals who have built businesses earning $50,000 or more from a modest investment (in many cases, $100 or less), and from that group he’s chosen to focus on the 50 most intriguing case studies. In nearly all cases, people with no special skills discovered aspects of their personal passions that could be monetized, and were able to restructure their lives in ways that gave them greater freedom and fulfillment. Here, finally, distilled into one easy-to-use guide, are the most valuable lessons from those who’ve learned how to turn what they do into a gateway to self-fulfillment. It’s all about finding the intersection between your "expertise" - even if you don’t consider it such - and what other people will pay for. You don’t need an MBA, a business plan or even employees. All you need is a product or service that springs from what you love to do anyway, people willing to pay, and a way to get paid. Not content to talk in generalities, Chris tells you exactly how many dollars his group of unexpected entrepreneurs required to get their projects up and running; what these individuals did in the first weeks and months to generate significant cash; some of the key mistakes they made along the way, and the crucial insights that made the business stick. Among Chris’s key principles: if you’re good at one thing, you’re probably good at something else; never teach a man to fish - sell him the fish instead; and in the battle between planning and action, action wins. In ancient times, people who were dissatisfied with their lives dreamed of finding magic lamps, buried treasure, or streets paved with gold. Today, we know that it’s up to us to change our lives. And the best part is, if we change our own life, we can help others change theirs. This remarkable book will start you on your way.

The answer is simple: come up with 10 ideas a day. It doesn't matter if they are good or bad, the key is to exercise your "idea muscle", to keep it toned, and in great shape. People say ideas are cheap and execution is everything but that is NOT true. Execution is a consequence, a subset of good, brilliant idea. And good ideas require daily work. Ideas may be easy if we are only coming up with one or two but if you open this book to any of the pages and try to produce more than three, you will feel a burn, scratch your head, and you will be sweating, and working hard. There is a turning point when you reach idea number six for the day, you still have four to go, and your mind muscle is getting a workout. By the time you list those last ideas to make it to 10 you will see for yourself what "sweating the idea muscle" means. As you practice the daily idea generation you become an idea machine. When we become idea machines we are flooded with lots of bad ideas but also with some that are very good. This happens by the sheer force of the number, because we are coming up with 3,650 ideas per year (at 10 a day). When you are inspired by an extraordinary idea, all of your thoughts break their chains, you go beyond limitations and your capacity to act expands in every direction. Forces and abilities you did not know you had come to the surface, and you realize you are capable of doing great things. As you practice with the suggested prompts in this book your ideas will get better, you will be a source of great insight for others, people will find you magnetic, and they will want to hang out with you because you have so much to offer. When you practice every day your life will transform, in no more than 180 days, because it has no other evolutionary choice. Life changes for the better when we become the source of positive, insightful, and helpful ideas. Don't believe a word I say. Instead, challenge yourself.

A Guide to Resilience: How to Bounce Back from Life's Inevitable Problems Christian Moore is convinced that each of us has a power hidden within, something that can get us through any kind of adversity.

We can each have our own resilience breakthrough, Moore argues, and can each learn how to use adverse circumstances as potent fuel for overcoming life's hardships. As he shares engaging real-life stories and brutally honest analyses of his own experiences, Moore equips you with 27 resilience-building tools that you can start using today - in your personal life or in your organization.

What if someone told you that your behavior was controlled by a powerful, invisible force? Most of us would be skeptical of such a claim--but it's largely true. Our brains are constantly transmitting and receiving signals of which we are unaware. Studies show that these constant inputs drive the great majority of our decisions about what to do next--and we become conscious of the decisions only after we start acting on them. Many may find that disturbing. But the implications for leadership are profound. In this provocative yet practical book, renowned speaking coach and communication expert Nick Morgan highlights recent research that shows how humans are programmed to respond to the nonverbal cues of others--subtle gestures, sounds, and signals--that elicit emotion. He then provides a clear, useful framework of seven "power cues" that will be essential for any leader in business, the public sector, or almost any context. You'll learn crucial skills, from measuring nonverbal signs of confidence, to the art and practice of gestures and vocal tones, to figuring out what your gut is really telling you. This concise and engaging guide will help leaders and aspiring leaders of all stripes to connect powerfully, communicate more effectively, and command influence.

A mash-up of the best elements of Crush It! and The Thank You Economy with a fresh spin, Jab, Jab, Jab, Right Hook is a blueprint to social media marketing strategies that really works. When managers and marketers outline their social media strategies, they plan for the "right hook"—their next sale or campaign that's going to knock out the competition. Even companies committed to jabbing—patiently engaging with customers to build the relationships crucial to successful social media campaigns—want to land the punch that will take down their opponent or their customer's resistance in one blow. Right hooks convert traffic to sales and easily show results. Except when they don't. Thanks to massive change and proliferation in social media platforms, the winning combination of jabs and right hooks is different now. Vaynerchuk shows that while communication is still key, context matters more than ever. It's not just about developing high-quality content, but developing high-quality content perfectly adapted to specific social media platforms and mobile devices—content tailor-made for Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter and Tumblr.

From the best-selling author of The Black Swan and one of the foremost thinkers of our time, Nassim Nicholas Taleb, a book on how some things actually benefit from disorder. In The Black Swan Taleb outlined a problem, and in Antifragile he offers a definitive solution: how to gain from disorder and chaos while being protected from fragilities and adverse events. For what Taleb calls the "antifragile" is actually beyond the robust, because it benefits from shocks, uncertainty, and stressors, just as human bones get stronger when subjected to stress and tension. The antifragile needs disorder in order to survive and flourish. Taleb stands uncertainty on its head, making it desirable, even necessary, and proposes that things be built in an antifragile manner. The antifragile is immune to prediction errors. Why is the city-state better than the nation-state, why is debt bad for you, and why is everything that is both modern and complicated bound to fail? The audiobook spans innovation by trial and error, health, biology, medicine, life decisions, politics, foreign policy, urban planning, war, personal finance, and economic systems. And throughout, in addition to the street wisdom of Fat Tony of Brooklyn, the voices and recipes of ancient wisdom, from Roman, Greek, Semitic, and medieval sources, are heard loud and clear. Extremely ambitious and multidisciplinary, Antifragile provides a blueprint for how to behave - and thrive - in a world we don't understand, and which is too uncertain for us to even try to understand and predict. Erudite and witty, Taleb’s message is revolutionary: What is not antifragile will surely perish.

The Cluetrain Manifesto began as a Web site in 1999 when the authors, who have worked variously at IBM, Sun Microsystems, the Linux Journal, and NPR, posted 95 theses about the new reality of the networked marketplace. Ten years after its original publication, their message remains more relevant than ever. For example, thesis no. 2: “Markets consist of human beings, not demographic sectors”; thesis no. 20: “Companies need to realize their markets are often laughing. At them.” The book enlarges on these themes through dozens of stories and observations about business in America and how the Internet will continue to change it all. With a new introduction and chapters by the authors, and commentary by Jake McKee, JP Rangaswami, and Dan Gillmor, this book is essential reading for anybody interested in the Internet and e-commerce, and is especially vital for businesses navigating the topography of the wired marketplace.

From the founders of the trailblazing software company 37signals, here is a different kind of business book one that explores a new reality. Today, anyone can be in business. Tools that used to be out of reach are now easily accessible. Technology that cost thousands is now just a few bucks or even free. Stuff that was impossible just a few years ago is now simple.That means anyone can start a business. And you can do it without working miserable 80-hour weeks or depleting your life savings. You can start it on the side while your day job provides all the cash flow you need. Forget about business plans, meetings, office space - you don't need them. With its straightforward language and easy-is-better approach, Rework is the perfect playbook for anyone who's ever dreamed of doing it on their own. Hardcore entrepreneurs, small-business owners, people stuck in day jobs who want to get out, and artists who don't want to starve anymore will all find valuable inspiration and guidance in these pages. It's time to rework work.


Tesla's main source of inspiration.
Roger Joseph Boscovich, a physicist, astronomer, mathematician, philosopher, diplomat, poet, theologian, Jesuit priest, and polymath, published the first edition of his famous work, Philosophiae Naturalis Theoria Redacta Ad Unicam Legem Virium In Natura Existentium (Theory Of Natural Philosophy Derived To The Single Law Of Forces Which Exist In Nature), in Vienna, in 1758, containing his atomic theory and his theory of forces. A second edition was published in 1763 in Venice

Bill Clinton's Georgetown mentor's history of the Conspiracy since the Boer War in South Africa.
TRAGEDY AND HOPE shows the years 1895-1950 as a period of transition from the world dominated by Europe in the nineteenth century to the world of three blocs in the twentieth century. With clarity, perspective, and cumulative impact, Professor Quigley examines the nature of that transition through two world wars and a worldwide economic depression. As an interpretative historian, he tries to show each event in the full complexity of its historical context. The result is a unique work, notable in several ways. It gives a picture of the world in terms of the influence of different cultures and outlooks upon each other; it shows, more completely than in any similar work, the influence of science and technology on human life; and it explains, with unprecedented clarity, how the intricate financial and commercial patterns of the West prior to 1914 influenced the development of today’s world.

This is the July, 2016 ALTA (Asymmetric Linguistic Trends Analysis) Report. Also known as 'the Web Bot' report, this series is brought to you by halfpasthuman.com. This report covers your future world from July 2016 through to 2031.

Time is considered as an independent entity which cannot be reduced to the concept of matter, space or field. The point of discussion is the "time flow" conception of N A Kozyrev (1908-1983), an outstanding Russian astronomer and natural scientist. In addition to a review of the experimental studies of "the active properties of time", by both Kozyrev and modern scientists, the reader will find different interpretations of Kozyrev's views and some developments of his ideas in the fields of geophysics, astrophysics, general relativity and theoretical mechanics.

How UFO Time Engines work - Clif High

The webpage discusses the workings of UFO time engines according to N.A. Kozyrev's experiments. The LL1 engine is described as a hollow metal sphere with a pool of mercury metal inside. When activated by electrical energy, it creates a uni-polar magnetic field causing the mercury to spin at a high rate and induce "time stuff" to accumulate on its surface. The accrued time stuff is siphoned down magnetically to the radiating antennae on the bottom of the vessel, providing self-sustaining power and allowing for time travel. The environment inside UFOs is likely volatile and not suitable for humans.

The Body Electric tells the fascinating story of our bioelectric selves. Robert O. Becker, a pioneer in the filed of regeneration and its relationship to electrical currents in living things, challenges the established mechanistic understanding of the body. He found clues to the healing process in the long-discarded theory that electricity is vital to life. But as exciting as Becker's discoveries are, pointing to the day when human limbs, spinal cords, and organs may be regenerated after they have been damaged, equally fascinating is the story of Becker's struggle to do such original work. The Body Electric explores new pathways in our understanding of evolution, acupuncture, psychic phenomena, and healing.

Unique, controversial, and frequently cited, this survey offers highly detailed accounts concerning the development of ideas and theories about the nature of electricity and space (aether). Readily accessible to general readers as well as high school students, teachers, and undergraduates, it includes much information unavailable elsewhere. This single-volume edition comprises both The Classical Theories and The Modern Theories, which were originally published separately. The first volume covers the theories of classical physics from the age of the Greek philosophers to the late 19th century. The second volume chronicles discoveries that led to the advances of modern physics, focusing on special relativity, quantum theories, general relativity, matrix mechanics, and wave mechanics. Noted historian of science I. Bernard Cohen, who reviewed these books for Scientific American, observed, "I know of no other history of electricity which is as sound as Whittaker's. All those who have found stimulation from his works will read this informative and accurate history with interest and profit."

The third edition of the defining text for the graduate-level course in Electricity and Magnetism has finally arrived! It has been 37 years since the first edition and 24 since the second. The new edition addresses the changes in emphasis and applications that have occurred in the field, without any significant increase in length.

Objects are a ubiquitous presence and few of us stop and think what they mean in our lives. This is the job of philosophers and this is what Jean Baudrillard does in his book. This is required reading for followers of Baudrillard, and he is perhaps the most assessable to the General Reader. Baudrillard is most associated with Post Modernism, and this early book sets the stage for that journey to the post modern world.
We are all surrounded by objects, but how many times have we thought about what those objects represent. If we took the time to think about the symbolism, we could arrive at easy solutions. We have been so accustomed to advertising the automobile representing freedom is an easy conclusion. But what about furniture? What about chairs? What about the arrangement of furniture? Watches? Collecting objects? Baudrillard literally opens up a new world and creates the universe of objects.
It is not that the critique of a society or objects has not been done before, but Baudrillard’s approach is new. Baudrillard examines objects as signs with a smattering of Post-Marxist thought. In his analysis of objects as signs, he ushers in the Post-Modern age and world for which he would be known. Heady stuff to be sure, but is presented by Baudrillard in a readily accessible manner. He articulates his thesis in a straightforward manner, avoiding the hyper-technical terminology he used in his later writings.

Moving away from the Marxist/Freudian approaches that had concerned him earlier, Baudrillard developed in this book a theory of contemporary culture that relies on displacing economic notions of cultural production with notions of cultural expenditure.

The book begins with Sidis's discovery of the first law of physical laws: "Among the physical laws it is a general characteristic that there is reversibility in time; that is, should the whole universe trace back the various positions that bodies in it have passed through in a given interval of time, but in the reverse order to that in which these positions actually occurred, then the universe, in this imaginary case, would still obey the same laws." Recent discoveries of dark matter are predicted by him in this book, and he goes on to show that the "Big Bang" is wrong. Sidis (SIGH-dis) shows that it is far more likely the universe is eternal

In this book you will encounter rare information regarding your true identity - the conscious self in the body - and how you may break the hypnotic spell your senses and thinking have cast about you since childhood.

Do we see the world as it truly is? In The Case Against Reality, pioneering cognitive scientist Donald Hoffman says no? we see what we need in order to survive. Our visual perceptions are not a window onto reality, Hoffman shows us, but instead are interfaces constructed by natural selection. The objects we see around us are not unlike the file icons on our computer desktops: while shaped like a small folder on our screens, the files themselves are made of a series of ones and zeros - too complex for most of us to understand. In a similar way, Hoffman argues, evolution has shaped our perceptions into simplistic illusions to help us navigate the world around us. Yet now these illusions can be manipulated by advertising and design.
Drawing on thirty years of Hoffman's own influential research, as well as evolutionary biology, game theory, neuroscience, and philosophy, The Case Against Reality makes the mind-bending yet utterly convincing case that the world is nothing like what we see through our eyes.

At the height of the Cold War, JFK risked committing the greatest crime in human history: starting a nuclear war. Horrified by the specter of nuclear annihilation, Kennedy gradually turned away from his long-held Cold Warrior beliefs and toward a policy of lasting peace. But to the military and intelligence agencies in the United States, who were committed to winning the Cold War at any cost, Kennedy’s change of heart was a direct threat to their power and influence. Once these dark “Unspeakable” forces recognized that Kennedy’s interests were in direct opposition to their own, they tagged him as a dangerous traitor, plotted his assassination, and orchestrated the subsequent cover-up.

2020 saw a spike in deaths in America, smaller than you might imagine during a pandemic, some of which could be attributed to COVID and to initial treatment strategies that were not effective. But then, in 2021, the stats people expected went off the rails. The CEO of the OneAmerica insurance company publicly disclosed that during the third and fourth quarters of 2021, death in people of working age (18–64) was 40 percent higher than it was before the pandemic. Significantly, the majority of the deaths were not attributed to COVID. A 40 percent increase in deaths is literally earth-shaking. Even a 10 percent increase in excess deaths would have been a 1-in-200-year event. But this was 40 percent. And therein lies a story—a story that starts with obvious questions: - What has caused this historic spike in deaths among younger people? - What has caused the shift from old people, who are expected to die, to younger people, who are expected to keep living?

The Tavistock Institute, in Sussex, England, describes itself as a nonprofit charity that applies social science to contemporary issues and problems. But this book posits that it is the world’s center for mass brainwashing and social engineering activities. It grew from a somewhat crude beginning at Wellington House into a sophisticated organization that was to shape the destiny of the entire planet, and in the process, change the paradigm of modern society. In this eye-opening work, both the Tavistock network and the methods of brainwashing and psychological warfare are uncovered.

A seminal and controversial figure in the history of political thought and public relations, Edward Bernays (1891–1995), pioneered the scientific technique of shaping and manipulating public opinion, which he famously dubbed “engineering of consent.” During World War I, he was an integral part of the U.S. Committee on Public Information (CPI), a powerful propaganda apparatus that was mobilized to package, advertise and sell the war to the American people as one that would “Make the World Safe for Democracy.” The CPI would become the blueprint in which marketing strategies for future wars would be based upon.
Bernays applied the techniques he had learned in the CPI and, incorporating some of the ideas of Walter Lipmann, as well as his uncle, Sigmund Freud, became an outspoken proponent of propaganda as a tool for democratic and corporate manipulation of the population. His 1928 bombshell Propaganda lays out his eerily prescient vision for using propaganda to regiment the collective mind in a variety of areas, including government, politics, art, science and education. To read this book today is to frightfully comprehend what our contemporary institutions of government and business have become in regards to organized manipulation of the masses.

Undressing the Bible: in Hebrew, the Old Testament speaks for itself, explicitly and transparently. It tells of mysterious beings, special and powerful ones, that appeared on Earth.
Aliens?
Former earthlings?
Superior civilizations, that have always been present on our planet?
Creators, manipulators, geneticists. Aviators, warriors, despotic rulers. And scientists, possessing very advanced knowledge, special weapons and science-fiction-like technologies.
Once naked, the Bible is very different from how it has always been told to us: it does not contain any spiritual, omnipotent and omniscient God, no eternity. No apples and no creeping, tempting, serpents. No winged angels. Not even the Red Sea: the people of the Exodus just wade through a simple reed bed.
Writer and journalist Giorgio Cattaneo sits down with Italy's most renowned biblical translator for his first long interview about his life's work for the English audience. A decade long official Bible translator for the Church and lifelong researcher of ancient myths and tales, Mauro Bilglino is a unicum in his field of expertise and research. A fine connoisseur of dead languages, from ancient Greek to Hebrew and medieval Latin, he focused his attention and efforts on the accurate translating of the bible.
The encounter with Mauro Biglino and his work - the journalist writes - is profoundly healthy, stimulating and inevitably destabilizing: it forces us to reconsider the solidity of the awareness that nourishes many of our common beliefs. And it is a testament to the courage that is needed, today more than ever, to claim the full dignity of free research.

Most people have heard of Jesus Christ, considered the Messiah by Christians, and who lived 2000 years ago. But very few have ever heard of Sabbatai Zevi, who declared himself the Messiah in 1666. By proclaiming redemption was available through acts of sin, he amassed a following of over one million passionate believers, about half the world's Jewish population during the 17th century.Although many Rabbis at the time considered him a heretic, his fame extended far and wide. Sabbatai's adherents planned to abolish many ritualistic observances, because, according to the Talmud, holy obligations would no longer apply in the Messianic time. Fasting days became days of feasting and rejoicing. Sabbateans encouraged and practiced sexual promiscuity, adultery, incest and religious orgies.After Sabbati Zevi's death in 1676, his Kabbalist successor, Jacob Frank, expanded upon and continued his occult philosophy. Frankism, a religious movement of the 18th and 19th centuries, centered on his leadership, and his claim to be the reincarnation of the Messiah Sabbatai Zevi. He, like Zevi, would perform "strange acts" that violated traditional religious taboos, such as eating fats forbidden by Jewish dietary laws, ritual sacrifice, and promoting orgies and sexual immorality. He often slept with his followers, as well as his own daughter, while preaching a doctrine that the best way to imitate God was to cross every boundary, transgress every taboo, and mix the sacred with the profane. Hebrew University of Jerusalem Professor Gershom Scholem called Jacob Frank, "one of the most frightening phenomena in the whole of Jewish history".Jacob Frank would eventually enter into an alliance formed by Adam Weishaupt and Meyer Amshel Rothschild called the Order of the Illuminati. The objectives of this organization was to undermine the world's religions and power structures, in an effort to usher in a utopian era of global communism, which they would covertly rule by their hidden hand: the New World Order. Using secret societies, such as the Freemasons, their agenda has played itself out over the centuries, staying true to the script. The Illuminati handle opposition by a near total control of the world's media, academic opinion leaders, politicians and financiers. Still considered nothing more than theory to many, more and more people wake up each day to the possibility that this is not just a theory, but a terrifying Satanic conspiracy.

This is the first English translation of this revolutionary essay by Vladimir I. Vernadsky, the great Russian-Ukrainian biogeochemist. It was first published in 1930 in French in the Revue générale des sciences pures et appliquées. In it, Vernadsky makes a powerful and provocative argument for the need to develop what he calls “a new physics,” something he felt was clearly necessitated by the implications of the groundbreaking work of Louis Pasteur among few others, but also something that was required to free science from the long-lasting effects of the work of Isaac Newton, most notably.
For hundreds of years, science had developed in a direction which became increasingly detached from the breakthroughs made in the study of life and the natural sciences, detached even from human life itself, and committed reductionists and small-minded scientists were resolved to the fact that ultimately all would be reduced to “the old physics.” The scientific revolution of Einstein was a step in the right direction, but here Vernadsky insists that there is more progress to be made. He makes a bold call for a new physics, taking into account, and fundamentally based upon, the striking anomalies of life and human life.

Using an inspired combination of geometric logic and metaphors from familiar human experience, Bucky invites readers to join him on a trip through a four-dimensional Universe, where concepts as diverse as entropy, Einstein's relativity equations, and the meaning of existence become clear, understandable, and immediately involving. In his own words: "Dare to be naive... It is one of our most exciting discoveries that local discovery leads to a complex of further discoveries." Here are three key examples or concepts from "Synergetics":

Tensegrity

Tensegrity, or tensional integrity, refers to structural systems that use a combination of tension and compression components. The simplest example of this is the "tensegrity triangle", where three struts are held in position not by touching one another but by tensioned wires. These systems are stable and flexible. Tensegrity structures are pervasive in natural systems, from the cellular level up to larger biological and even cosmological scales.

Vector Equilibrium (VE)

The Vector Equilibrium, often referred to by Fuller as the "VE", is a geometric form that he saw as the central form in his synergetic geometry. It’s essentially a cuboctahedron. Fuller noted that the VE is the only geometric form wherein all the vectors (lines from the center to the vertices) are of equal length and angular relationship. Because of this, it’s seen as a condition of absolute equilibrium, where the forces of push and pull are balanced.

Closest Packing of Spheres

Fuller was fascinated by how spheres could be packed together in the tightest possible configuration, a concept he often linked to how nature organizes systems. For example, when you stack oranges in a grocery store, they form a hexagonal pattern, and the spheres (oranges) are in closest-packed arrangement. Fuller related this principle to atomic structures and even cosmic organization.

To prepare Americans and freedom loving people everywhere for our current global wartime reality that few understand, here comes The Citizen's Guide to Fifth Generation Warfare (CG5GW) by Lieutenant General, U.S. Army (Retired) Michael T. Flynn and Sergeant, U.S. Army (Retired) Boone Cutler. General Flynn rose to the highest levels of the intelligence community and served as the National Security Advisor to the 45th POTUS. Sergeant Boone Cutler ran the ground game as a wartime Psychological Operations team sergeant in the United States Army. Together, these two combat veterans put their combined experience and expertise into an illuminating fifth-generation warfare information series called The Citizen's Guide to Fifth Generation Warfare. Introduction to 5GW is the first session of the multipart series. The series, complete with easy-to-understand diagrams, is written for all of humanity in every freedom loving country.

Vladimir I. Vernadsky (1863-1945) was a Russian and Ukrainian mineralogist and geochemist who is best known for his work on the biosphere and the noosphere concepts. His ideas have profoundly influenced various scientific fields, from geology to biology and even philosophy. Here's the summary of his one of his concepts:

Biosphere :

  • Vernadsky defined the biosphere as the thin layer of Earth where life exists, encompassing all living organisms and the parts of the Earth where they interact. This includes the depths of the oceans to the upper layers of the atmosphere.
  • He posited that life plays a critical role in transforming the Earth's environment. In this view, living organisms are not just passive inhabitants of the planet, but active agents of change. This idea contrasts with more traditional views that saw life as simply adapting to pre-existing environmental conditions.
  • One example of this transformative power is the oxygen-rich atmosphere, which was created by photosynthesizing organisms over billions of years.

It's worth noting that Vernadsky's ideas were formulated in a period when the world was experiencing rapid technological changes and were before the advent of concerns about global challenges like climate change. Today, his ideas can be seen in a new light, as we recognize the significant impact human activity has on the planet, from the changing climate to the alteration of biogeochemical cycles. Overall, Vernadsky's thesis about the biosphere and the noosphere offers a holistic perspective on the evolution of the Earth and humanity's role in that evolution. It emphasizes the profound interconnectedness between life, the environment, and human cognition and culture.

Noosphere :

  • The concept of the noosphere can be seen as the next evolutionary stage following the biosphere. While the biosphere represents the realm of life, the noosphere represents the realm of human thought.
  • Vernadsky believed that, just as life transformed the Earth through the biosphere, human thought and collective intelligence would transform the planet in the era of the noosphere. This transformation would be characterized by the dominance of cultural evolution over biological evolution.
  • In this paradigm, human knowledge, technology, and cultural developments would become the primary drivers of change on the planet, influencing its future direction.
  • The term "noosphere" is derived from the Greek word “nous” meaning "mind" or "intellect" and "sphaira" meaning "sphere." So, the noosphere can be thought of as the "sphere of human thought."

A close analysis of the architecture of the stupa―a Buddhist symbolic form that is found throughout South, Southeast, and East Asia. The author, who trained as an architect, examines both the physical and metaphysical levels of these buildings, which derive their meaning and significance from Buddhist and Brahmanist influences.

Building on his extensive research into the sacred symbols and creation myths of the Dogon of Africa and those of ancient Egypt, India, and Tibet, Laird Scranton investigates the myths, symbols, and traditions of prehistoric China, providing further evidence that the cosmology of all ancient cultures arose from a single now-lost source.

It is at the same time a history of language, a guide to foreign tongues, and a method for learning them. It shows, through basic vocabularies, family resemblances of languages―Teutonic, Romance, Greek―helpful tricks of translation, key combinations of roots and phonetic patterns. It presents by common-sense methods the most helpful approach to the mastery of many languages; it condenses vocabulary to a minimum of essential words; it simplifies grammar in an entirely new way; and it teaches a languages as it is actually used in everyday life.
But this book is more than a guide to foreign languages; it goes deep into the roots of all knowledge as it explores the history of speech. It lights up the dim pathways of prehistory and unfolds the story of the slow growth of human expression from the most primitive signs and sounds to the elaborate variations of the highest cultures. Without language no knowledge would be possible; here we see how language is at once the source and the reservoir of all we know.

Taking only the most elementary knowledge for granted, Lancelot Hogben leads readers of this famous book through the whole course from simple arithmetic to calculus. His illuminating explanation is addressed to the person who wants to understand the place of mathematics in modern civilization but who has been intimidated by its supposed difficulty. Mathematics is the language of size, shape, and order―a language Hogben shows one can both master and enjoy.

A complete manual for the study and practice of Raja Yoga, the path of concentration and meditation. These timeless teachings is a treasure to be read and referred to again and again by seekers treading the spiritual path. The classic Sutras, at least 4,000 years old, cover the yogic teachings on ethics, meditation, and physical postures, and provide directions for dealing with situations in daily life. The Sutras are presented here in the purest form, with the original Sanskrit and with translation, transliteration, and commentary by Sri Swami Satchidananda, one of the most respected and revered contemporary Yoga masters. Sri Swamiji offers practical advice based on his own experience for mastering the mind and achieving physical, mental and emotional harmony.

William Strauss and Neil Howe will change the way you see the world - and your place in it. With blazing originality, The Fourth Turning illuminates the past, explains the present, and reimagines the future. Most remarkably, it offers an utterly persuasive prophecy about how America’s past will predict its future.

Strauss and Howe base this vision on a provocative theory of American history. The authors look back 500 years and uncover a distinct pattern: Modern history moves in cycles, each one lasting about the length of a long human life, each composed of four eras - or "turnings" - that last about 20 years and that always arrive in the same order. In The Fourth Turning, the authors illustrate these cycles using a brilliant analysis of the post-World War II period.

First comes a High, a period of confident expansion as a new order takes root after the old has been swept away. Next comes an Awakening, a time of spiritual exploration and rebellion against the now-established order. Then comes an Unraveling, an increasingly troubled era in which individualism triumphs over crumbling institutions. Last comes a Crisis - the Fourth Turning - when society passes through a great and perilous gate in history. Together, the four turnings comprise history's seasonal rhythm of growth, maturation, entropy, and rebirth.

Excess Deaths & Why RFK Jr. Can Win The Democratic Presidential Race - Ed Dowd | Part 1 of 2 - 06-21-2023

All original edition. Nothing added, nothing removed. This book traces the history of the ancient Khazar Empire, a major but almost forgotten power in Eastern Europe, which in the Dark Ages became converted to Judaism. Khazaria was finally wiped out by the forces of Genghis Khan, but evidence indicates that the Khazars themselves migrated to Poland and formed the cradle of Western Jewry. To the general reader the Khazars, who flourished from the 7th to 11th century, may seem infinitely remote today. Yet they have a close and unexpected bearing on our world, which emerges as Koestler recounts the fascinating history of the ancient Khazar Empire.

At about the time that Charlemagne was Emperor in the West. The Khazars' sway extended from the Black Sea to the Caspian, from the Caucasus to the Volga, and they were instrumental in stopping the Muslim onslaught against Byzantium, the eastern jaw of the gigantic pincer movement that in the West swept across northern Africa and into Spain.Thereafter the Khazars found themselves in a precarious position between the two major world powers: the Eastern Roman Empire in Byzantium and the triumphant followers of Mohammed.As Koestler points out, the Khazars were the Third World of their day. They chose a surprising method of resisting both the Western pressure to become Christian and the Eastern to adopt Islam. Rejecting both, they converted to Judaism. Mr. Koestler speculates about the ultimate faith of the Khazars and their impact on the racial composition and social heritage of modern Jewry.

Few people noticed the secret codewords used by our astronauts to describe the moon. Until now, few knew about the strange moving lights they reported.
George H. Leonard, former NASA scientist, fought through the official veil of secrecy and studied thousands of NASA photographs, spoke candidly with dozens of NASA officials, and listened to hours and hours of astronauts' tapes.
Here, Leonard presents the stunning and inescapable evidence discovered during his in-depth investigation:

  • Immense mechanical rigs, some over a mile long, working the lunar surface.
  • Strange geometric ground markings and symbols.
  • Lunar constructions several times higher than anything built on Earth.
  • Vehicles, tracks, towers, pipes, conduits, and conveyor belts running in and across moon craters.
Somebody else is indeed on the Moon, and engaged in activities on a massive scale. Our space agencies, and many of the world's top scientists, have known for years that there is intelligent life on the moon.

The article delves into the history of the Khazars, a polity in the Northern Caucasus that existed from the mid-seventh century until about 970 CE. Contrary to popular belief, the term "Khazars" is misleading as it was a multiethnic entity, and it's uncertain which specific group adopted Judaism. The Khazars first emerged in the seventh century, defeating the Bulgars, which led to the Bulgars' dispersion to various regions. The Khazar Empire was established through the expulsion of the Bulgars and was multiethnic in nature. The language spoken by the Khazars is debated, with some suggesting Turkic origins and others pointing to Slavic. The Khazars had several cities and fortresses, with significant archaeological findings. The Khazars had interactions with various empires, including wars with the Arabs and alliances with Byzantine emperors. By the mid-10th century, the Khazar capital of Itil was destroyed by the Russians. The article concludes that much of what is known about the Khazars is based on limited sources.

In The Science of the Dogon, Laird Scranton demonstrated that the cosmological structure described in the myths and drawings of the Dogon runs parallel to modern science--atomic theory, quantum theory, and string theory--their drawings often taking the same form as accurate scientific diagrams that relate to the formation of matter.

Sacred Symbols of the Dogon uses these parallels as the starting point for a new interpretation of the Egyptian hieroglyphic language. By substituting Dogon cosmological drawings for equivalent glyph-shapes in Egyptian words, a new way of reading and interpreting the Egyptian hieroglyphs emerges. Scranton shows how each hieroglyph constitutes an entire concept, and that their meanings are scientific in nature.

The Dogon people of Mali, West Africa, are famous for their unique art and advanced cosmology. The Dogon’s creation story describes how the one true god, Amma, created all the matter of the universe. Interestingly, the myths that depict his creative efforts bear a striking resemblance to the modern scientific definitions of matter, beginning with the atom and continuing all the way to the vibrating threads of string theory. Furthermore, many of the Dogon words, symbols, and rituals used to describe the structure of matter are quite similar to those found in the myths of ancient Egypt and in the daily rituals of Judaism. For example, the modern scientific depiction of the informed universe as a black hole is identical to Amma’s Egg of the Dogon and the Egyptian Benben Stone.

The Science of the Dogon offers a case-by-case comparison of Dogon descriptions and drawings to corresponding scientific definitions and diagrams from authors like Stephen Hawking and Brian Greene, then extends this analysis to the counterparts of these symbols in both the ancient Egyptian and Hebrew religions. What is ultimately revealed is the scientific basis for the language of the Egyptian hieroglyphs, which was deliberately encoded to prevent the knowledge of these concepts from falling into the hands of all but the highest members of the Egyptian priesthood.

Anthony C. Yu’s translation of The Journey to the West,initially published in 1983, introduced English-speaking audiences to the classic Chinese novel in its entirety for the first time. Written in the sixteenth century, The Journey to the West tells the story of the fourteen-year pilgrimage of the monk Xuanzang, one of China’s most famous religious heroes, and his three supernatural disciples, in search of Buddhist scriptures. Throughout his journey, Xuanzang fights demons who wish to eat him, communes with spirits, and traverses a land riddled with a multitude of obstacles, both real and fantastical. An adventure rich with danger and excitement, this seminal work of the Chinese literary canonis by turns allegory, satire, and fantasy.

With over a hundred chapters written in both prose and poetry, The Journey to the West has always been a complicated and difficult text to render in English while preserving the lyricism of its language and the content of its plot. But Yu has successfully taken on the task, and in this new edition he has made his translations even more accurate and accessible. The explanatory notes are updated and augmented, and Yu has added new material to his introduction, based on his original research as well as on the newest literary criticism and scholarship on Chinese religious traditions. He has also modernized the transliterations included in each volume, using the now-standard Hanyu Pinyin romanization system. Perhaps most important, Yu has made changes to the translation itself in order to make it as precise as possible.

One of the great works of Chinese literature, The Journey to the West is not only invaluable to scholars of Eastern religion and literature, but, in Yu’s elegant rendering, also a delight for any reader.

The Oera Linda Book is a 19th-century translation by Dr. Ottema and WIlliam R. Sandbach of an old manuscript written in the Old Frisian language that records historical, mythological, and religious themes of remote antiquity, compiled between 2194 BC and AD 803.

  • The Oera Linda book challenges traditional views of pre-Christian societies.
  • Christianization is likened to a "great reset" that erased previous civilizations.
  • The Fryan language provides insights into the beliefs and values of the Fryan people.
  • The cyclical nature of time is emphasized, suggesting patterns in history.
  • The importance of identity and understanding one's roots is highlighted.
  • The Oera Linda book offers wisdom and insights into several European languages.

The Oera Linda book offers a fresh perspective on our history, challenging the notion that pre-Christian societies were uncivilized. It suggests that the Christianization of societies was a form of "great reset," erasing and demonizing what existed before. The Oera Linda writings hint at an advanced civilization with its own laws, writing, and societal structures. Jan Ott's translation from the Fryan language provides insights into the beliefs and values of the Fryan people. The text also touches upon the guilt many feel today, even if they aren't religious, about issues like climate change and historical slavery. It criticizes the way science is sometimes treated like a religion, with scientists acting as its preachers. The cyclical nature of time is emphasized, suggesting that understanding history requires recognizing patterns and cycles. Christianity is portrayed as one of the most significant resets in history, with sects fighting and erasing each other's scriptures. The importance of identity is highlighted, with a focus on the Fryans, a tribe that faced challenges from another tribe from Finland. This other tribe had a different moral compass, leading to conflicts and eventual assimilation. The text suggests that the true history of the Fryans and their values might have been distorted by subsequent Christian narratives. The Oera Linda book is seen as a source of wisdom, shedding light on the origins of several European languages and offering insights into values like freedom, truth, and justice.

The Talmud is one of the most important holy books of the Hebrew religion and of the world. No English translation of the book existed until the author presented this work. To this day, very little of the actual text seems available in English -- although we find many interpretive commentaries on what it is supposed to mean. The Talmud has a reputation for being long and difficult to digest, but Polano has taken what he believes to be the best material and put it into extremely readable form. As far as holy books of the world are concerned, it is on par with The Koran, The Bhagavad-Gita and, of course, The Bible, in importance. This clearly written edition will allow many to experience The Talmud who may have otherwise not had the chance.

This five-volume set is the only complete English rendering of The Zohar, the fundamental rabbinic work on Jewish mysticism that has fascinated readers for more than seven centuries. In addition to being the primary reference text for kabbalistic studies, this magnificent work is arranged in the form of a commentary on the Bible, bringing to the surface the deeper meanings behind the commandments and biblical narrative. As The Zohar itself proclaims: Woe unto those who see in the Law nothing but simple narratives and ordinary words .... Every word of the Law contains an elevated sense and a sublime mystery .... The narratives of the Law are but the raiment Thin which it is swathed.

Twenty-one years ago, at a friend's request, a Massachusetts professor sketched out a blueprint for nonviolent resistance to repressive regimes. It would go on to be translated, photocopied, and handed from one activist to another, traveling from country to country across the globe: from Iran to Venezuela―where both countries consider Gene Sharp to be an enemy of the state―to Serbia; Afghanistan; Vietnam; the former Soviet Union; China; Nepal; and, more recently and notably, Tunisia, Egypt, Yemen, Libya, and Syria, where it has served as a guiding light of the Arab Spring.

This short, pithy, inspiring, and extraordinarily clear guide to overthrowing a dictatorship by nonviolent means lists 198 specific methods to consider, depending on the circumstances: sit-ins, popular nonobedience, selective strikes, withdrawal of bank deposits, revenue refusal, walkouts, silence, and hunger strikes. From Dictatorship to Democracy is the remarkable work that has made the little-known Sharp into the world's most effective and sought-after analyst of resistance to authoritarian regimes.

Bill Cooper, former United States Naval Intelligence Briefing Team member, reveals information that remains hidden from the public eye. This information has been kept in topsecret government files since the 1940s. His audiences hear the truth unfold as he writes about the assassination of John F. Kennedy, the war on drugs, the secret government, and UFOs. Bill is a lucid, rational, and powerful speaker whose intent is to inform and to empower his audience. Standing room only is normal. His presentation and information transcend partisan affiliations as he clearly addresses issues in a way that has a striking impact on listeners of all backgrounds and interests. He has spoken to many groups throughout the United States and has appeared regularly on many radio talk shows and on television. In 1988 Bill decided to "talk" due to events then taking place worldwide, events that he had seen plans for back in the early 1970s. Bill correctly predicted the lowering of the Iron Curtain, the fall of the Berlin Wall, and the invasion of Panama. All Bill's predictions were on record well before the events occurred. Bill is not a psychic. His information comes from top secret documents that he read while with the Intelligence Briefing Team and from over seventeen years of research.

The argument that the 16th Amendment (which concerns the federal income tax) was not properly ratified and thus is invalid has been a topic of debate among some tax protesters and scholars. One of the individuals associated with this theory is Bill Benson, who asserted that the 16th Amendment was fraudulently ratified. Here's a brief overview of the argument: 1. Research and Documentation: Bill Benson, along with another individual named M.J. "Red" Beckman, wrote a two-volume work called "The Law That Never Was" in the 1980s. This work was a product of Benson's extensive travels to various state archives to examine the original ratification documents related to the 16th Amendment. 2. Claims of Irregularities: In his work, Benson presented evidence that claimed many of the states either did not ratify the 16th Amendment properly or made mistakes in their resolutions. Some of these alleged irregularities included misspellings, incorrect wording, and other deviations from the proposed amendment. 3. Philander Knox's Role: In 1913, Philander Knox, who was the U.S. Secretary of State at the time, declared that the 16th Amendment had been ratified by the necessary three-fourths of the states. Benson's contention is that Knox was aware of the various discrepancies and irregularities in the ratification process but chose to fraudulently declare the amendment ratified anyway. 4. Legal Challenges and Court Rulings: Over the years, some tax protesters have used Benson's findings to challenge the legality of the income tax. However, these challenges have been consistently rejected by the courts. In fact, several courts have addressed Benson's research and arguments directly and found them to be without legal merit. The courts have repeatedly upheld the validity of the 16th Amendment. 5. Counterarguments: Critics of Benson's theory argue that even if there were minor discrepancies in the wording or format of the ratification documents, they do not invalidate the overarching intent of the states to ratify the amendment. Additionally, they assert that there's no substantive evidence that Knox acted fraudulently. It's worth noting that despite the popularity of this theory among certain groups, the legal consensus in the U.S. is that the 16th Amendment was validly ratified and is a legitimate part of the U.S. Constitution. Those who refuse to pay income taxes based on this theory have faced legal penalties.

The article delves into the evolution of the concept of the ether in physics. Historically, the ether was postulated to explain the propagation of light, with figures like Newton and Huygens suggesting its existence. By the late 19th century, Maxwell's electromagnetic theory linked light's propagation to the ether, a theory experimentally validated by Hertz in 1888. Lorentz expanded on this, focusing on wave transmission in moving media. The article contrasts the English approach, which sought tangible models, with the phenomenological view, which aimed for a descriptive approach without specific hypotheses. The piece also touches on various mechanical theories and models proposed over the years, emphasizing the challenges in defining the ether's properties and its evolving nature in scientific discourse.

Carbon Chips! - 09-20-2023

Hello humans. Hello humans. Still the 19 September on the outward bound leg. Now on to eleven.

Didn't take as long this time. A couple of my meetings crapped out on me, which is good. They were they were gonna be interesting if they happened, but they didn't, so that's okay too. Anyway, Way wanted to talk about light in some interesting, to me anyway, aspects of it. So I wrote this substac about how the space aliens used our brains to control their spaceships and they did it by our ability to be in control of the biophotons in our bodies, which I can get into a little bit later.

But anyway, light is really interesting. Light is the key to our biology. Biology, in fact, as a science is I agree with this guy Jack Krauss. He's a brain surgeon, maybe even a neurosurgeon. So I'm not sure if he's neurosurgeon or just cranial, right?

Just brain surgeon. Anyway, he's a surgeon. He's Raspy. He knows what the shit he's talking about. But light is the controller for our anatomy.

We have 100,000 or more. They're just guessing chemical reactions, biochemical or what they call quantum biological chemical. Now, 100,000 of these interactions going on in each of our cells constantly. And the only way to control and modulate those reactions is through light. Electricity is just too slow, atoms are too big, electrons are too big, so you got to use a photon which is very fast also.

So human beings are carbon based semiconductors and as opposed to silicon based semiconductors, right? And so we have a silicon based technology where all of our chips are based around sand, basically.

And the space aliens that invaded us had a carbon based technology, right? We were their semiconductors and so they had physical devices that they then plugged their carbon computer chips into and we were their carbon computer chips because our brains are just a giant fantastically complex array of semiconductors and light amplification transformers, right? So you can put in a biophoton at such and such a frequency and it may even amplify it, but you'll get another frequency out. So they're transformed by the semiconducting process that our carbon atoms provide. So we're electrical beings, but we're also light beings at a much more fundamental level anyway.

And so in the future, light will replace drugs. You won't have drugs. Most of the pain modulation, all of this kind of stuff will be done by specific frequencies of light at specific intensities. This will also, in my opinion, be used to trigger things like bone regeneration, growing new limbs, growing new teeth, that kind of thing, right? And so it'll trigger all these processes as we get into it.

So it's very worthwhile exploring light in all of its frequencies, but especially for our biology from 200 nm up to 1100 frequency but on either side of those in the ultraviolets and the infrared, those are very important light things as well. Now, on this basis, on this understanding that light is extremely important to us, do not fall for any scams where they say, we've got computer software and this computer software will generate all of this fantastic display of light, and this light is going to heal you or reduce your pain or whatever the fuck, right? Whatever they're claiming for it, don't fall for that because that's impossible. The reason it's impossible is because unless they're building their own computer monitors, those monitors are not ever going to have the full spectrum of light that their software may intend. So these guys may actually have a legitimate programmer that I've seen some of these devices.

They're claiming they're like med beds and they have this very complex display in little squares of all these various different kinds of light, various colors, et cetera, et cetera, on the computer monitor. And this is supposed to heal you in a med bed kind of a fashion, right? I don't know what they charge for them, but it's a bunch of horseshit. The reason it's horseshit is that they're limited by the limitation of the monitor. And the computer monitors that we have here favor blue light.

They will deliberately screen out reds and browns. So even if the programmer was honest and legit and had a good program where he was attempting to do this, he's not really aware that there's nothing he can do to overcome the limitations built into the hardware, which will always favor a blue light expression no matter what. So even the yellows have more blue in them than yellows seen out and about in reality. And so no computer monitor can provide you with any source of light that is in any way meaningful to your body except in a negative fashion. And that is that you're being exposed to too much blue light too long, too continuously, at too deep of a frequency for your body.

It may, in fact even account for a lot of these neurological problems and a lot of the brain cancers. This is probably pretty sure. Jack Krauss seems to think that he's got studies and examples of this. He's a real nice guy. I mean, really solid in his understanding of what's going on.

So I've been investigating Melanin as part of how the space aliens used us to control their machinery because they did it through our biophotonic layers. And I'll get into that in a bit. But in the process of this, I come across these claims by various different companies that their software can be put into your computer or your phone, and then you just look at these screens and you'll be healed. And like I say, this ain't possible. People, even if they were legit, even if they were honest about it, they cannot produce what the hardware is incapable of producing.

And that's true reds and true browns. And actually they even fail on most of the lavenders and purples, which are very key frequencies for humans anyway as what's his name gota discovered, right? Because there's two primary color wheels. The primary color wheel we work with leaves out all of the purple, magentas and so on that gota's color wheel has anyway. And so light is very, very key here.

I'm getting into more research with the light, especially now coming across the idea that when the space aliens invaded they were actually out for supplies. Okay? And their supplies are they needed new computer chips for their tech and their computer chips are all carbon based and their computer chips are us. All right? So they just did not have a silicon based semiconductor technology.

They had a carbon based semiconductor technology and they didn't have to build their carbon based semiconductors nor their carbon based computers. They would just go and take some humans and plug them into their device and off they go. And there is all kinds of nastiness that results from this that's been recorded in these ancient songs and religious hymns and all of these kind of things. If you take out the religious overlay that's been put on them by the past 6000 years of misunderstanding of what it was actually talking about. And so I come across some of this language that says hey, basically it's saying in Sanskrit that there is a body light fluid.

There's a fluid in your body that illuminates and that this fluid that illuminates is a dichotomy, it's a conundrum because this fluid that illuminates you is black. It's so black that the blackest part of outer space would have to work to become as black as this body illumination fluid. Now, all these things are being described in Sanskrit because they did not have the same name which is melanin for that chemical constituent. Right? They describe it they even describe it as our scientists describe it in terms of melanin is this particular kind of a folded lattice structure molecule.

Right? And so that was also described in Sanskrit. So I knew we were talking about the same thing even though they didn't have the word melanin for it. And they also even had the understanding that there were many, many sites in the body for this fluid. Some of these sites were static.

Like in the skin, it could bind there and it wouldn't leave. But also other parts of the body produced it, stored it, used it or whatever. And then there was even a further layer where parts of the body made a liquid form of melanin that was put into the blood. And that this is a circulating fluid just like we circulate cholesterol and that we circulate blood, right, to get the oxygen. So blood and hemoglobin provides you with gas transfer throughout your body.

That's one of its main jobs, energy and gas. Right? Well, the melanin is also transmitted in the blood plasma in that fluid. And its job is to transport light for you in the form of biophotons. So very much a similar analog, just not oxygen being dumped off and gases being ontaken, but rather light being dumped off and used up light or transformed light being taken on board by the melanin.

So the melanin can provide a cell with a biophoton. That cell is a carbon based semiconductor. It transforms that biophoton from whatever frequency was input to whatever frequency needs to be output based on the operation of the cell and what's going on at the time the biophoton is put in. But the blood then still has the melanin and the melanin picks up the discharged biophoton. Right.

And this explains so much in terms of how things actually work relative to the transport of disease. Even like the metastasization of cancer is accomplished by and influenced by the biophotonic transformations within you. So if you got a bunch of cells that are cancerous, they're going to be putting out kinds of biophotons in their semiconductor transformation of that particular frequency, it'll go into some other frequency. But that frequency won't be the frequency that the body needs or wants. It will be a, quote, damaged frequency because it's coming
out of the cancerous cells.

So if we knew what we were doing as humans, we could have something that would monitor the melanin in the blood and it would tell you, hey, some of your cells are saying that they're cancerous because they're putting out, instead of putting out this I don't know, let's just pick a number. 611 nm. They're putting out 613 nm. Right. So it would be at that level, you'd be able to tell by the frequency of the light that this light had been processed through a cancer damaged carbon semiconductor.

But that's also basically how the space aliens operated. Whatever their technology was that you put yourself into when you sat in these seats and put your hands in these controls and then put your feet on the other controls, it was monitoring biophotonic processes in the melanin that was circulating in your blood. Probably also dealing with galvanic skin response, like lie detectors, that kind of thing, among other indicators. But really, all it really needs is the biophotonic information to be able to determine exactly where all the processes are within the normal ranges, et cetera. Right?

And so we have a space alien technology where they have a plug and play apparatus and they can just plug in any carbon based semi processor or arrays of transformative semiconductors. Right? And so your brain is nothing more than a vast array of semiconductors, all organized. We cannot make computer chips even a fraction, even a significant fraction of the complexity of our brains. So I would be surprised to hear any chip maker say that their silicon based chip had even 1000th of 1% of the complexity of the human brain.

Bear in mind, their operating systems are based on electrons, ours are based on light. So ours are ever so much faster and will always be faster anyway. So we'll use light for anesthesia, we'll use light to trigger regeneration processes in the body, all of these kind of things. And basically we will become a light based society instead of the electron based society that we are now. And you could be electron and be carbon semiconductor based, but the speed of operation for electron based anything is going to be ever so much slower than the way you would get it with carbon and light.

Hang on a second. There was just some traffic issues here. Anyway, so interesting that Jack Krause had had these two podcasts that he had done with these people. Just coincidentally with my doing the research on circulating melanin and all of this kind of thing, I'm gonna have to pull up here and pause and go do another little bit of business. Then I'll come on back to this.

But in any event though, got to listen to more of Jack's stuff here in the future. Park over here. What the hell. Anyway.

Okay, I'm back. Anyway boy, a lot of traffic suddenly. Anyway, so I expect that we're going to run into some really interesting confluence of events here. Dick, Algier and myself and a bunch of the psychics and the astrology people, all of this kind of stuff, all the woo guys, we're all picking up on some big damn thing coming and even the normies are know, I feel a sense of know that kind of thing, right?

I think we're going to have a series of events that will occur because the fuck tard mother. Weffers are going to continue on with their plan. They have no choice, right, that's their goal is to take over the planet. So they've just got to keep at it. Anyway, I suspect that these events will include at least one, if not two or three of these directed energy weapons attacks against regular normie civilization right now.

The thing is that we're at a very loaded point in history in the sense or events, however we want to think about it because history is the past. So the events that are ahead of us are coming in extremely emotionally loaded, in an emotionally loaded environment to where if we push in more building tension or more release tension, we're going to get like this explosion. Well, we'll get an explosion of release language. That's what's indicated in my work. The other guys, Dick and these kind of people actually look at the manifestations in a reality and not the emotional impact on the humans and stuff around or as a result of that event.

So they don't get quite the same view of things that I do. So what I'm suggesting will happen is that we'll get the three events that they see coming or there will be a potential for those three events to have been made manifest. Now I actually think we're going to have to go through another one of these. And I think that we're going to have to go through another one of these, that the biggest chunk of normies would become awakened as a result of it. And Galvanized, now, at that point, we're also going to see in terms of what my data sets would suggest, and as we see the release language, it's not going to be just people standing around gnashing their teeth, pulling their hair out and screaming.

We're going to have a whole lot of people that don't react that way, and they become dynamic or active, start taking things under their own personal control.

So at some point, the plan of the mother Weffers, which is to degrade police, degrade the infrastructure, degrade the social order, also eliminates within the individual allegiance to authority or any of this kind of thing, they're actually degrading the control structures that allow them to control the rest of us in the process of what they're doing here. And so at some point, the events will kick a huge mass of people over into the ungovernable category, where they're just going to do what the fuck they want because they know there's not going to be any real opposition to them doing so. And there's no point anymore because they're no longer loyal in any sense to the official dome. And so I think we're coming to this generalized systemic breakdown. It'll break down the money.

It'll be global. There'll be a lot of parts of the planet that will still be stable and functioning, but not so much here in the US. Not so much here in the west. It's going to cause some really interesting manifestations that will be totally unexpected by the Mother Weffers, because they're working a plan, right? And no plan survives first contact with the enemy.

Their plan has already been altered so many times that it's unrecognizable from its initial incept, right from its initial inception. We still have their goals, but the individual plan items that they'd anticipated putting into place are just not working. See, so they had had their plan was that they would have us all locked down forever, and they'd roll the vaccines out over the course of ten or 15 years, and lots of people would kill themselves in the first three or four or five years of being locked down, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. None of this shit's happened. Nino had interviewed that guy who was the military subcontractor, and Nino's saying, the beast system has been activated.

Oh, my God. The beast system's been activated. Well, the beast system is that digital, the central bank digital currency shit. And no, it's not been activated. And I don't give a shit if it is activated.

It doesn't function. So they can activate it all they want, but it don't work.

So it just is not going to be an issue, right? Just is not a problem. There's a lot to be fearful about, but very, very little to be afraid of. In other words, you can be fearful of something that you think may manifest, but you need to be afraid of the dog that's about to bite your nuts, that kind of thing, right? So the immediacy the event aspect of it, the reality of it, as opposed to what's in your mind.

Getting back to that, though, the mind and the light and all of this kind of thing, we're going to see in terms of these events that appear. The Dew weapons will attack us. I think that at that point we're going to have a huge tranche of normies wake up and we'll start having people rise up in response to these attacks, pointing finger at the real people, and we're going to see this will okay, so I think we're almost right at that point. And I think that the next do attack will tip us over to where people that we would call reporters or journalists that work for the corporations will be assaulted in the street. Like literally some poor woman is going to get smashed in the nose, her nose is going to get broken.

She's going to be standing up there with a microphone trying to put out some kind of shit for the MSN and somebody's going to come along and just have had enough of it, have taken too much umbrage, from it all, and it's just going to smack her just to shut the bitch the fuck up. People have just had it. We've reached that limit, and now they're going to be demonstrative. And when this next do attack comes on out, why not, right? Why not get into full on open revolt even though the media says, oh no, it's climate change.

Well, that stops as soon as you go on up and smack them in the face with the climate change that's on the end of your arm and change the climate in their face, right? And so that's what's going to be happening is that we've reached that level of expected or we've reached the level to where we are no longer willing to live to the expectations of authority in terms of our behavior. So people are going to become ungovernable, and so the whole system will become ungovernable. We'll start oscillating out in millions of different places, oscillating out of control, and we'll be in that process of changing and dying. Now, the thing is, it's not going to be dying the way that the mother Weffers had anticipated.

And so their event is going to trigger a series of what they would think of as very unlikely circumstances or very unlikely events out of the circumstance. Yet those circumstances will
have been created by what they have done. And these events will turn out to be extremely likely because they will manifest. And this is going to change the dynamic of it all. Would not surprise me to have an entirely different power structure in the United States and thus in the Western world by January, right?

It'll be that dramatic once the shit starts happening. Wouldn't surprise me that we had a military coup if we're attacked and they put a dew in there and they wipe out Washington, DC. Wouldn't surprise me to have continuity of government and then somebody come on out and say, I'm General so and so. And, you know, unfortunately, my fellow Americans, I have to take over because we've been under attack by the evil whoever. They'll blame somebody, but probably not the mother Weffers.

But this is a kind of chaos that we're heading into. In chaos is opportunity. In chaos there is always creation. In chaos there is always novelty. Shit we just don't expect.

And so there's a lot of stuff that's going to appear that I have no clue about. I have no expectations for my level of expectations, and my ability to see novelty exceeds that in my opinion of the mother Weffers. So I can see a lot of the things that they don't take into their thinking at all. And as I say, many of these things will indeed manifest. Now, timing on this could be difficult.

For instance, in my data sets, the first appearance of leadership in the United States, which would be the Biden regime and their difficulties reaching a phase of dynamic action is on the 24th. What that level of dynamic action is, or could be, we could speculate, but we don't have any clear hints in the language. It may very well be that's the day that they remove Biden, right? So we have that we have data for dynamic Earth activities which may be attacks, or it could just be earthquakes. We don't know.

You can't really tell at this stage. We have those kind of things for 20 Eigth of September through to October 4. Now, that really does seem to me like it would be a decent time for an attack, except it's a little bit early, that we don't have the emotional conditions that I think would favor that relative to the viewpoint of the mother Weffers. But nonetheless, they may decide to do it just because they're pressed and pushed and so on. We just don't know how it's going to go.

I think, though, we're relatively close to it all. I can't see the attacks and stuff pushing out past the end of January of next year just because the emotional tension builds and how they're not coming down. So we're building a lot of emotional tension that we don't have any release on yet. This has been going on for a number of years. It's getting worse at the moment.

They're adding more emotional tension in the sense they're trying to gen up their whole lockdown, COVID, et cetera, et cetera. And by the way, anytime anybody says shot to you, just say to them, you can't make a vaccine against a mutating virus. If it's mutating, what you're giving a shot for is already passed, right? So you can't stay up with a mutating virus so there's no point to any shots. But in any event, though, they'll keep trying that, it's going to kick up a lot of anxiety, it's going to push people even further, it's going to ratchet up the building tension even further.

And we're already higher levels than I'd ever recorded, and these high levels are being sustained. And I'd never seen this in the past 20 plus years of this work, right? And so the tension levels, for instance, that were ahead of the attack on the trade towers on September 11, those tension levels were way down compared to what we've got now and they weren't sustained. They really only came into position two months ahead of the attack. So for like two months ahead of the attack, we were building up into a giant financial release that would show how we'd been fucked over and all of this kind of stuff over all these years by the Federal Reserve, the debt, et cetera, et cetera.

And so we were preparing to go into that when they did the towers in order to delay it. We never did that, they destroyed all the evidence, et cetera. Well they're at that point now where they have to do another one of these, they have to destroy a bunch more evidence, they have to pull another one of those kind of attacks. And the levels of tension, as I say, have been held for too long, much longer than we've had in the past. And I just don't see how they're going to be able to reconcile a mild or small attack in order to kick us into their control matrices.

So it's going to be just really interesting seeing how these things play out. I suspect, like I say that we're a couple of months, maximum three months before the powers that be got to get really crazy here.

Anyway, so I got to go and put stuff away and I've got a couple of more interviews coming up. When I've got them set up, I'll go ahead and put out the announcements on them. Take care guys. Going to be really interesting. And bear in mind that once they do their shit, you're not obligated to follow any of the authorities.

You know these guys are lying or don't have a clue as to what the fuck's going on. So if someone from the news is telling you XYZ and you know it's, you pay attention and react to the ABC. Fuck the XYZ.


The number-one best-selling pioneer of "fratire" and a leading evolutionary psychologist team up to create the dating book for guys.

The bible for bringing cutting-edge products to larger markets—now revised and updated with new insights into the realities of high-tech marketing In Crossing the Chasm, Geoffrey A. Moore shows that in the Technology Adoption Life Cycle—which begins with innovators and moves to early adopters, early majority, late majority, and laggards—there is a vast chasm between the early adopters and the early majority. While early adopters are willing to sacrifice for the advantage of being first, the early majority waits until they know that the technology actually offers improvements in productivity. The challenge for innovators and marketers is to narrow this chasm and ultimately accelerate adoption across every segment. This third edition brings Moore's classic work up to date with dozens of new examples of successes and failures, new strategies for marketing in the digital world, and Moore's most current insights and findings. He also includes two new appendices, the first connecting the ideas in Crossing the Chasm to work subsequently published in his Inside the Tornado, and the second presenting his recent groundbreaking work for technology adoption models for high-tech consumer markets.

Endless terror. Refugee waves. An unfixable global economy. Surprising election results. New billion-dollar fortunes. Miracle medical advances. What if they were all connected? What if you could understand why? The Seventh Sense is the story of what all of today's successful figures see and feel: the forces that are invisible to most of us but explain everything from explosive technological change to uneasy political ripples. The secret to power now is understanding our new age of networks. Not merely the Internet, but also webs of trade, finance, and even DNA. Based on his years of advising generals, CEOs, and politicians, Ramo takes us into the opaque heart of our world's rapidly connected systems and teaches us what the losers are not yet seeing -- and what the victors of this age already know.

This lushly illustrated history of popular entertainment takes a long-zoom approach, contending that the pursuit of novelty and wonder is a powerful driver of world-shaping technological change. Steven Johnson argues that, throughout history, the cutting edge of innovation lies wherever people are working the hardest to keep themselves and others amused. Johnson’s storytelling is just as delightful as the inventions he describes, full of surprising stops along the journey from simple concepts to complex modern systems. He introduces us to the colorful innovators of leisure: the explorers, proprietors, showmen, and artists who changed the trajectory of history with their luxurious wares, exotic meals, taverns, gambling tables, and magic shows. In Wonderland, Johnson compellingly argues that observers of technological and social trends should be looking for clues in novel amusements. You’ll find the future wherever people are having the most fun.

Nothing “goes viral.” If you think a popular movie, song, or app came out of nowhere to become a word-of-mouth success in today’s crowded media environment, you’re missing the real story. Each blockbuster has a secret history—of power, influence, dark broadcasters, and passionate cults that turn some new products into cultural phenomena. Even the most brilliant ideas wither in obscurity if they fail to connect with the right network, and the consumers that matter most aren't the early adopters, but rather their friends, followers, and imitators -- the audience of your audience. In his groundbreaking investigation, Atlantic senior editor Derek Thompson uncovers the hidden psychology of why we like what we like and reveals the economics of cultural markets that invisibly shape our lives. Shattering the sentimental myths of hit-making that dominate pop culture and business, Thompson shows quality is insufficient for success, nobody has "good taste," and some of the most popular products in history were one bad break away from utter failure. It may be a new world, but there are some enduring truths to what audiences and consumers want. People love a familiar surprise: a product that is bold, yet sneakily recognizable. Every business, every artist, every person looking to promote themselves and their work wants to know what makes some works so successful while others disappear. Hit Makers is a magical mystery tour through the last century of pop culture blockbusters and the most valuable currency of the twenty-first century—people’s attention. From the dawn of impressionist art to the future of Facebook, from small Etsy designers to the origin of Star Wars, Derek Thompson leaves no pet rock unturned to tell the fascinating story of how culture happens and why things become popular. In Hit Makers, Derek Thompson investigates: · The secret link between ESPN's sticky programming and the The Weeknd's catchy choruses · Why Facebook is today’s most important newspaper · How advertising critics predicted Donald Trump · The 5th grader who accidentally launched "Rock Around the Clock," the biggest hit in rock and roll history · How Barack Obama and his speechwriters think of themselves as songwriters · How Disney conquered the world—but the future of hits belongs to savvy amateurs and individuals · The French collector who accidentally created the Impressionist canon · Quantitative evidence that the biggest music hits aren’t always the best · Why almost all Hollywood blockbusters are sequels, reboots, and adaptations · Why one year--1991--is responsible for the way pop music sounds today · Why another year --1932--created the business model of film · How data scientists proved that “going viral” is a myth · How 19th century immigration patterns explain the most heard song in the Western Hemisphere

Ours is often called an information economy, but at a moment when access to information is virtually unlimited, our attention has become the ultimate commodity. In nearly every moment of our waking lives, we face a barrage of efforts to harvest our attention. This condition is not simply the byproduct of recent technological innovations but the result of more than a century's growth and expansion in the industries that feed on human attention. Wu’s narrative begins in the nineteenth century, when Benjamin Day discovered he could get rich selling newspapers for a penny. Since then, every new medium—from radio to television to Internet companies such as Google and Facebook—has attained commercial viability and immense riches by turning itself into an advertising platform. Since the early days, the basic business model of “attention merchants” has never changed: free diversion in exchange for a moment of your time, sold in turn to the highest-bidding advertiser. Full of lively, unexpected storytelling and piercing insight, The Attention Merchants lays bare the true nature of a ubiquitous reality we can no longer afford to accept at face value.

Some people think that in today’s hyper-competitive world, it’s the tough, take-no-prisoners type who comes out on top. But in reality, argues New York Times bestselling author Dave Kerpen, it’s actually those with the best people skills who win the day. Those who build the right relationships. Those who truly understand and connect with their colleagues, their customers, their partners. Those who can teach, lead, and inspire. In a world where we are constantly connected, and social media has become the primary way we communicate, the key to getting ahead is being the person others like, respect, and trust. Because no matter who you are or what profession you're in, success is contingent less on what you can do for yourself, but on what other people are willing to do for you. Here, through 53 bite-sized, easy-to-execute, and often counterintuitive tips, you’ll learn to master the 11 People Skills that will get you more of what you want at work, at home, and in life. For example, you’ll learn: · The single most important question you can ever ask to win attention in a meeting · The one simple key to networking that nobody talks about · How to remain top of mind for thousands of people, everyday · Why it usually pays to be the one to give the bad news · How to blow off the right people · And why, when in doubt, buy him a Bonsai A book best described as “How to Win Friends and Influence People for today’s world,” The Art of People shows how to charm and win over anyone to be more successful at work and outside of it.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER If you want to build a better future, you must believe in secrets. The great secret of our time is that there are still uncharted frontiers to explore and new inventions to create. In Zero to One, legendary entrepreneur and investor Peter Thiel shows how we can find singular ways to create those new things. Thiel begins with the contrarian premise that we live in an age of technological stagnation, even if we’re too distracted by shiny mobile devices to notice. Information technology has improved rapidly, but there is no reason why progress should be limited to computers or Silicon Valley. Progress can be achieved in any industry or area of business. It comes from the most important skill that every leader must master: learning to think for yourself. Doing what someone else already knows how to do takes the world from 1 to n, adding more of something familiar. But when you do something new, you go from 0 to 1. The next Bill Gates will not build an operating system. The next Larry Page or Sergey Brin won’t make a search engine. Tomorrow’s champions will not win by competing ruthlessly in today’s marketplace. They will escape competition altogether, because their businesses will be unique. Zero to One presents at once an optimistic view of the future of progress in America and a new way of thinking about innovation: it starts by learning to ask the questions that lead you to find value in unexpected places.

Why should I do business with you… and not your competitor? Whether you are a retailer, manufacturer, distributor, or service provider – if you cannot answer this question, you are surely losing customers, clients and market share. This eye-opening book reveals how identifying your competitive advantages (and trumpeting them to the marketplace) is the most surefire way to close deals, retain clients, and stay miles ahead of the competition. The five fatal flaws of most companies: • They don’t have a competitive advantage but think they do • They have a competitive advantage but don’t know what it is—so they lower prices instead • They know what their competitive advantage is but neglect to tell clients about it • They mistake “strengths” for competitive advantages • They don’t concentrate on competitive advantages when making strategic and operational decisions The good news is that you can overcome these costly mistakes – by identifying your competitive advantages and creating new ones. Consultant, public speaker, and competitive advantage expert Jaynie Smith will show you how scores of small and large companies substantially increased their sales by focusing on their competitive advantages. When advising a CEO frustrated by his salespeople’s inability to close deals, Smith discovered that his company stayed on schedule 95 percent of the time – an achievement no one else in his industry could claim. By touting this and other competitive advantages to customers, closing rates increased by 30 percent—and so did company revenues. Jack Welch has said, “If you don’t have a competitive advantage, don’t compete.” This straight-to-the-point book is filled with insightful stories and specific steps on how to pinpoint your competitive advantages, develop new ones, and get the message out about them.

The number one New York Times best seller that examines how people can champion new ideas in their careers and everyday life - and how leaders can fight groupthink, from the author of Think Again and co-author of Option B. With Give and Take, Adam Grant not only introduced a landmark new paradigm for success but also established himself as one of his generation’s most compelling and provocative thought leaders. In Originals he again addresses the challenge of improving the world, but now from the perspective of becoming original: choosing to champion novel ideas and values that go against the grain, battle conformity, and buck outdated traditions. How can we originate new ideas, policies, and practices without risking it all? Using surprising studies and stories spanning business, politics, sports, and entertainment, Grant explores how to recognize a good idea, speak up without getting silenced, build a coalition of allies, choose the right time to act, and manage fear and doubt; how parents and teachers can nurture originality in children; and how leaders can build cultures that welcome dissent. Learn from an entrepreneur who pitches his start-ups by highlighting the reasons not to invest, a woman at Apple who challenged Steve Jobs from three levels below, an analyst who overturned the rule of secrecy at the CIA, a billionaire financial wizard who fires employees for failing to criticize him, and a TV executive who didn’t even work in comedy but saved Seinfeld from the cutting-room floor. The payoff is a set of groundbreaking insights about rejecting conformity and improving the status quo.

In The $100 Startup, Chris Guillebeau tells you how to lead of life of adventure, meaning and purpose - and earn a good living. Still in his early 30s, Chris is on the verge of completing a tour of every country on earth - he's already visited more than 175 nations - and yet he’s never held a "real job" or earned a regular paycheck. Rather, he has a special genius for turning ideas into income, and he uses what he earns both to support his life of adventure and to give back. There are many others like Chris - those who've found ways to opt out of traditional employment and create the time and income to pursue what they find meaningful. Sometimes, achieving that perfect blend of passion and income doesn't depend on shelving what you currently do. You can start small with your venture, committing little time or money, and wait to take the real plunge when you're sure it's successful. In preparing to write this book, Chris identified 1,500 individuals who have built businesses earning $50,000 or more from a modest investment (in many cases, $100 or less), and from that group he’s chosen to focus on the 50 most intriguing case studies. In nearly all cases, people with no special skills discovered aspects of their personal passions that could be monetized, and were able to restructure their lives in ways that gave them greater freedom and fulfillment. Here, finally, distilled into one easy-to-use guide, are the most valuable lessons from those who’ve learned how to turn what they do into a gateway to self-fulfillment. It’s all about finding the intersection between your "expertise" - even if you don’t consider it such - and what other people will pay for. You don’t need an MBA, a business plan or even employees. All you need is a product or service that springs from what you love to do anyway, people willing to pay, and a way to get paid. Not content to talk in generalities, Chris tells you exactly how many dollars his group of unexpected entrepreneurs required to get their projects up and running; what these individuals did in the first weeks and months to generate significant cash; some of the key mistakes they made along the way, and the crucial insights that made the business stick. Among Chris’s key principles: if you’re good at one thing, you’re probably good at something else; never teach a man to fish - sell him the fish instead; and in the battle between planning and action, action wins. In ancient times, people who were dissatisfied with their lives dreamed of finding magic lamps, buried treasure, or streets paved with gold. Today, we know that it’s up to us to change our lives. And the best part is, if we change our own life, we can help others change theirs. This remarkable book will start you on your way.

Bold is a radical, how-to guide for using exponential technologies, moonshot thinking, and crowd-powered tools to create extraordinary wealth while also positively impacting the lives of billions.

The answer is simple: come up with 10 ideas a day. It doesn't matter if they are good or bad, the key is to exercise your "idea muscle", to keep it toned, and in great shape. People say ideas are cheap and execution is everything but that is NOT true. Execution is a consequence, a subset of good, brilliant idea. And good ideas require daily work. Ideas may be easy if we are only coming up with one or two but if you open this book to any of the pages and try to produce more than three, you will feel a burn, scratch your head, and you will be sweating, and working hard. There is a turning point when you reach idea number six for the day, you still have four to go, and your mind muscle is getting a workout. By the time you list those last ideas to make it to 10 you will see for yourself what "sweating the idea muscle" means. As you practice the daily idea generation you become an idea machine. When we become idea machines we are flooded with lots of bad ideas but also with some that are very good. This happens by the sheer force of the number, because we are coming up with 3,650 ideas per year (at 10 a day). When you are inspired by an extraordinary idea, all of your thoughts break their chains, you go beyond limitations and your capacity to act expands in every direction. Forces and abilities you did not know you had come to the surface, and you realize you are capable of doing great things. As you practice with the suggested prompts in this book your ideas will get better, you will be a source of great insight for others, people will find you magnetic, and they will want to hang out with you because you have so much to offer. When you practice every day your life will transform, in no more than 180 days, because it has no other evolutionary choice. Life changes for the better when we become the source of positive, insightful, and helpful ideas. Don't believe a word I say. Instead, challenge yourself.

A Guide to Resilience: How to Bounce Back from Life's Inevitable Problems Christian Moore is convinced that each of us has a power hidden within, something that can get us through any kind of adversity. That power is resilience. In The Resilience Breakthrough, Moore delivers a practical primer on how you can become more resilient in a world of instability and narrowing opportunity, whether you're facing financial troubles, health setbacks, challenges on the job, or any other problem. We can each have our own resilience breakthrough, Moore argues, and can each learn how to use adverse circumstances as potent fuel for overcoming life's hardships. As he shares engaging real-life stories and brutally honest analyses of his own experiences, Moore equips you with 27 resilience-building tools that you can start using today - in your personal life or in your organization.

What if someone told you that your behavior was controlled by a powerful, invisible force? Most of us would be skeptical of such a claim--but it's largely true. Our brains are constantly transmitting and receiving signals of which we are unaware. Studies show that these constant inputs drive the great majority of our decisions about what to do next--and we become conscious of the decisions only after we start acting on them. Many may find that disturbing. But the implications for leadership are profound. In this provocative yet practical book, renowned speaking coach and communication expert Nick Morgan highlights recent research that shows how humans are programmed to respond to the nonverbal cues of others--subtle gestures, sounds, and signals--that elicit emotion. He then provides a clear, useful framework of seven "power cues" that will be essential for any leader in business, the public sector, or almost any context. You'll learn crucial skills, from measuring nonverbal signs of confidence, to the art and practice of gestures and vocal tones, to figuring out what your gut is really telling you. This concise and engaging guide will help leaders and aspiring leaders of all stripes to connect powerfully, communicate more effectively, and command influence.

New York Times bestselling author and social media expert Gary Vaynerchuk shares hard-won advice on how to connect with customers and beat the competition. A mash-up of the best elements of Crush It! and The Thank You Economy with a fresh spin, Jab, Jab, Jab, Right Hook is a blueprint to social media marketing strategies that really works. When managers and marketers outline their social media strategies, they plan for the "right hook"—their next sale or campaign that's going to knock out the competition. Even companies committed to jabbing—patiently engaging with customers to build the relationships crucial to successful social media campaigns—want to land the punch that will take down their opponent or their customer's resistance in one blow. Right hooks convert traffic to sales and easily show results. Except when they don't. Thanks to massive change and proliferation in social media platforms, the winning combination of jabs and right hooks is different now. Vaynerchuk shows that while communication is still key, context matters more than ever. It's not just about developing high-quality content, but developing high-quality content perfectly adapted to specific social media platforms and mobile devices—content tailor-made for Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter and Tumblr.

From the best-selling author of The Black Swan and one of the foremost thinkers of our time, Nassim Nicholas Taleb, a book on how some things actually benefit from disorder. In The Black Swan Taleb outlined a problem, and in Antifragile he offers a definitive solution: how to gain from disorder and chaos while being protected from fragilities and adverse events. For what Taleb calls the "antifragile" is actually beyond the robust, because it benefits from shocks, uncertainty, and stressors, just as human bones get stronger when subjected to stress and tension. The antifragile needs disorder in order to survive and flourish. Taleb stands uncertainty on its head, making it desirable, even necessary, and proposes that things be built in an antifragile manner. The antifragile is immune to prediction errors. Why is the city-state better than the nation-state, why is debt bad for you, and why is everything that is both modern and complicated bound to fail? The audiobook spans innovation by trial and error, health, biology, medicine, life decisions, politics, foreign policy, urban planning, war, personal finance, and economic systems. And throughout, in addition to the street wisdom of Fat Tony of Brooklyn, the voices and recipes of ancient wisdom, from Roman, Greek, Semitic, and medieval sources, are heard loud and clear. Extremely ambitious and multidisciplinary, Antifragile provides a blueprint for how to behave - and thrive - in a world we don't understand, and which is too uncertain for us to even try to understand and predict. Erudite and witty, Taleb’s message is revolutionary: What is not antifragile will surely perish.

The Cluetrain Manifesto began as a Web site in 1999 when the authors, who have worked variously at IBM, Sun Microsystems, the Linux Journal, and NPR, posted 95 theses about the new reality of the networked marketplace. Ten years after its original publication, their message remains more relevant than ever. For example, thesis no. 2: “Markets consist of human beings, not demographic sectors”; thesis no. 20: “Companies need to realize their markets are often laughing. At them.” The book enlarges on these themes through dozens of stories and observations about business in America and how the Internet will continue to change it all. With a new introduction and chapters by the authors, and commentary by Jake McKee, JP Rangaswami, and Dan Gillmor, this book is essential reading for anybody interested in the Internet and e-commerce, and is especially vital for businesses navigating the topography of the wired marketplace.

From the founders of the trailblazing software company 37signals, here is a different kind of business book one that explores a new reality. Today, anyone can be in business. Tools that used to be out of reach are now easily accessible. Technology that cost thousands is now just a few bucks or even free. Stuff that was impossible just a few years ago is now simple.That means anyone can start a business. And you can do it without working miserable 80-hour weeks or depleting your life savings. You can start it on the side while your day job provides all the cash flow you need. Forget about business plans, meetings, office space - you don't need them. With its straightforward language and easy-is-better approach, Rework is the perfect playbook for anyone who's ever dreamed of doing it on their own. Hardcore entrepreneurs, small-business owners, people stuck in day jobs who want to get out, and artists who don't want to starve anymore will all find valuable inspiration and guidance in these pages. It's time to rework work.


Tesla's main source of inspiration.
Roger Joseph Boscovich, a physicist, astronomer, mathematician, philosopher, diplomat, poet, theologian, Jesuit priest, and polymath, published the first edition of his famous work, Philosophiae Naturalis Theoria Redacta Ad Unicam Legem Virium In Natura Existentium (Theory Of Natural Philosophy Derived To The Single Law Of Forces Which Exist In Nature), in Vienna, in 1758, containing his atomic theory and his theory of forces. A second edition was published in 1763 in Venice

Bill Clinton's Georgetown mentor's history of the Conspiracy since the Boer War in South Africa.
TRAGEDY AND HOPE shows the years 1895-1950 as a period of transition from the world dominated by Europe in the nineteenth century to the world of three blocs in the twentieth century. With clarity, perspective, and cumulative impact, Professor Quigley examines the nature of that transition through two world wars and a worldwide economic depression. As an interpretative historian, he tries to show each event in the full complexity of its historical context. The result is a unique work, notable in several ways. It gives a picture of the world in terms of the influence of different cultures and outlooks upon each other; it shows, more completely than in any similar work, the influence of science and technology on human life; and it explains, with unprecedented clarity, how the intricate financial and commercial patterns of the West prior to 1914 influenced the development of today’s world.

Time is considered as an independent entity which cannot be reduced to the concept of matter, space or field. The point of discussion is the "time flow" conception of N A Kozyrev (1908-1983), an outstanding Russian astronomer and natural scientist. In addition to a review of the experimental studies of "the active properties of time", by both Kozyrev and modern scientists, the reader will find different interpretations of Kozyrev's views and some developments of his ideas in the fields of geophysics, astrophysics, general relativity and theoretical mechanics.

How UFO Time Engines work - Clif High

The webpage discusses the workings of UFO time engines according to N.A. Kozyrev's experiments. The LL1 engine is described as a hollow metal sphere with a pool of mercury metal inside. When activated by electrical energy, it creates a uni-polar magnetic field causing the mercury to spin at a high rate and induce "time stuff" to accumulate on its surface. The accrued time stuff is siphoned down magnetically to the radiating antennae on the bottom of the vessel, providing self-sustaining power and allowing for time travel. The environment inside UFOs is likely volatile and not suitable for humans.

The Body Electric tells the fascinating story of our bioelectric selves. Robert O. Becker, a pioneer in the filed of regeneration and its relationship to electrical currents in living things, challenges the established mechanistic understanding of the body. He found clues to the healing process in the long-discarded theory that electricity is vital to life. But as exciting as Becker's discoveries are, pointing to the day when human limbs, spinal cords, and organs may be regenerated after they have been damaged, equally fascinating is the story of Becker's struggle to do such original work. The Body Electric explores new pathways in our understanding of evolution, acupuncture, psychic phenomena, and healing.

Unique, controversial, and frequently cited, this survey offers highly detailed accounts concerning the development of ideas and theories about the nature of electricity and space (aether). Readily accessible to general readers as well as high school students, teachers, and undergraduates, it includes much information unavailable elsewhere. This single-volume edition comprises both The Classical Theories and The Modern Theories, which were originally published separately. The first volume covers the theories of classical physics from the age of the Greek philosophers to the late 19th century. The second volume chronicles discoveries that led to the advances of modern physics, focusing on special relativity, quantum theories, general relativity, matrix mechanics, and wave mechanics. Noted historian of science I. Bernard Cohen, who reviewed these books for Scientific American, observed, "I know of no other history of electricity which is as sound as Whittaker's. All those who have found stimulation from his works will read this informative and accurate history with interest and profit."

The third edition of the defining text for the graduate-level course in Electricity and Magnetism has finally arrived! It has been 37 years since the first edition and 24 since the second. The new edition addresses the changes in emphasis and applications that have occurred in the field, without any significant increase in length.

Objects are a ubiquitous presence and few of us stop and think what they mean in our lives. This is the job of philosophers and this is what Jean Baudrillard does in his book. This is required reading for followers of Baudrillard, and he is perhaps the most assessable to the General Reader. Baudrillard is most associated with Post Modernism, and this early book sets the stage for that journey to the post modern world.
We are all surrounded by objects, but how many times have we thought about what those objects represent. If we took the time to think about the symbolism, we could arrive at easy solutions. We have been so accustomed to advertising the automobile representing freedom is an easy conclusion. But what about furniture? What about chairs? What about the arrangement of furniture? Watches? Collecting objects? Baudrillard literally opens up a new world and creates the universe of objects.
It is not that the critique of a society or objects has not been done before, but Baudrillard’s approach is new. Baudrillard examines objects as signs with a smattering of Post-Marxist thought. In his analysis of objects as signs, he ushers in the Post-Modern age and world for which he would be known. Heady stuff to be sure, but is presented by Baudrillard in a readily accessible manner. He articulates his thesis in a straightforward manner, avoiding the hyper-technical terminology he used in his later writings.

Moving away from the Marxist/Freudian approaches that had concerned him earlier, Baudrillard developed in this book a theory of contemporary culture that relies on displacing economic notions of cultural production with notions of cultural expenditure.

The book begins with Sidis's discovery of the first law of physical laws: "Among the physical laws it is a general characteristic that there is reversibility in time; that is, should the whole universe trace back the various positions that bodies in it have passed through in a given interval of time, but in the reverse order to that in which these positions actually occurred, then the universe, in this imaginary case, would still obey the same laws." Recent discoveries of dark matter are predicted by him in this book, and he goes on to show that the "Big Bang" is wrong. Sidis (SIGH-dis) shows that it is far more likely the universe is eternal

In this book you will encounter rare information regarding your true identity - the conscious self in the body - and how you may break the hypnotic spell your senses and thinking have cast about you since childhood.

Do we see the world as it truly is? In The Case Against Reality, pioneering cognitive scientist Donald Hoffman says no? we see what we need in order to survive. Our visual perceptions are not a window onto reality, Hoffman shows us, but instead are interfaces constructed by natural selection. The objects we see around us are not unlike the file icons on our computer desktops: while shaped like a small folder on our screens, the files themselves are made of a series of ones and zeros - too complex for most of us to understand. In a similar way, Hoffman argues, evolution has shaped our perceptions into simplistic illusions to help us navigate the world around us. Yet now these illusions can be manipulated by advertising and design.
Drawing on thirty years of Hoffman's own influential research, as well as evolutionary biology, game theory, neuroscience, and philosophy, The Case Against Reality makes the mind-bending yet utterly convincing case that the world is nothing like what we see through our eyes.

At the height of the Cold War, JFK risked committing the greatest crime in human history: starting a nuclear war. Horrified by the specter of nuclear annihilation, Kennedy gradually turned away from his long-held Cold Warrior beliefs and toward a policy of lasting peace. But to the military and intelligence agencies in the United States, who were committed to winning the Cold War at any cost, Kennedy’s change of heart was a direct threat to their power and influence. Once these dark “Unspeakable” forces recognized that Kennedy’s interests were in direct opposition to their own, they tagged him as a dangerous traitor, plotted his assassination, and orchestrated the subsequent cover-up.

2020 saw a spike in deaths in America, smaller than you might imagine during a pandemic, some of which could be attributed to COVID and to initial treatment strategies that were not effective. But then, in 2021, the stats people expected went off the rails. The CEO of the OneAmerica insurance company publicly disclosed that during the third and fourth quarters of 2021, death in people of working age (18–64) was 40 percent higher than it was before the pandemic. Significantly, the majority of the deaths were not attributed to COVID. A 40 percent increase in deaths is literally earth-shaking. Even a 10 percent increase in excess deaths would have been a 1-in-200-year event. But this was 40 percent. And therein lies a story—a story that starts with obvious questions: - What has caused this historic spike in deaths among younger people? - What has caused the shift from old people, who are expected to die, to younger people, who are expected to keep living?

The Tavistock Institute, in Sussex, England, describes itself as a nonprofit charity that applies social science to contemporary issues and problems. But this book posits that it is the world’s center for mass brainwashing and social engineering activities. It grew from a somewhat crude beginning at Wellington House into a sophisticated organization that was to shape the destiny of the entire planet, and in the process, change the paradigm of modern society. In this eye-opening work, both the Tavistock network and the methods of brainwashing and psychological warfare are uncovered.

A seminal and controversial figure in the history of political thought and public relations, Edward Bernays (1891–1995), pioneered the scientific technique of shaping and manipulating public opinion, which he famously dubbed “engineering of consent.” During World War I, he was an integral part of the U.S. Committee on Public Information (CPI), a powerful propaganda apparatus that was mobilized to package, advertise and sell the war to the American people as one that would “Make the World Safe for Democracy.” The CPI would become the blueprint in which marketing strategies for future wars would be based upon.
Bernays applied the techniques he had learned in the CPI and, incorporating some of the ideas of Walter Lipmann, as well as his uncle, Sigmund Freud, became an outspoken proponent of propaganda as a tool for democratic and corporate manipulation of the population. His 1928 bombshell Propaganda lays out his eerily prescient vision for using propaganda to regiment the collective mind in a variety of areas, including government, politics, art, science and education. To read this book today is to frightfully comprehend what our contemporary institutions of government and business have become in regards to organized manipulation of the masses.

Undressing the Bible: in Hebrew, the Old Testament speaks for itself, explicitly and transparently. It tells of mysterious beings, special and powerful ones, that appeared on Earth.
Aliens?
Former earthlings?
Superior civilizations, that have always been present on our planet?
Creators, manipulators, geneticists. Aviators, warriors, despotic rulers. And scientists, possessing very advanced knowledge, special weapons and science-fiction-like technologies.
Once naked, the Bible is very different from how it has always been told to us: it does not contain any spiritual, omnipotent and omniscient God, no eternity. No apples and no creeping, tempting, serpents. No winged angels. Not even the Red Sea: the people of the Exodus just wade through a simple reed bed.
Writer and journalist Giorgio Cattaneo sits down with Italy's most renowned biblical translator for his first long interview about his life's work for the English audience. A decade long official Bible translator for the Church and lifelong researcher of ancient myths and tales, Mauro Bilglino is a unicum in his field of expertise and research. A fine connoisseur of dead languages, from ancient Greek to Hebrew and medieval Latin, he focused his attention and efforts on the accurate translating of the bible.
The encounter with Mauro Biglino and his work - the journalist writes - is profoundly healthy, stimulating and inevitably destabilizing: it forces us to reconsider the solidity of the awareness that nourishes many of our common beliefs. And it is a testament to the courage that is needed, today more than ever, to claim the full dignity of free research.

Most people have heard of Jesus Christ, considered the Messiah by Christians, and who lived 2000 years ago. But very few have ever heard of Sabbatai Zevi, who declared himself the Messiah in 1666. By proclaiming redemption was available through acts of sin, he amassed a following of over one million passionate believers, about half the world's Jewish population during the 17th century.Although many Rabbis at the time considered him a heretic, his fame extended far and wide. Sabbatai's adherents planned to abolish many ritualistic observances, because, according to the Talmud, holy obligations would no longer apply in the Messianic time. Fasting days became days of feasting and rejoicing. Sabbateans encouraged and practiced sexual promiscuity, adultery, incest and religious orgies.After Sabbati Zevi's death in 1676, his Kabbalist successor, Jacob Frank, expanded upon and continued his occult philosophy. Frankism, a religious movement of the 18th and 19th centuries, centered on his leadership, and his claim to be the reincarnation of the Messiah Sabbatai Zevi. He, like Zevi, would perform "strange acts" that violated traditional religious taboos, such as eating fats forbidden by Jewish dietary laws, ritual sacrifice, and promoting orgies and sexual immorality. He often slept with his followers, as well as his own daughter, while preaching a doctrine that the best way to imitate God was to cross every boundary, transgress every taboo, and mix the sacred with the profane. Hebrew University of Jerusalem Professor Gershom Scholem called Jacob Frank, "one of the most frightening phenomena in the whole of Jewish history".Jacob Frank would eventually enter into an alliance formed by Adam Weishaupt and Meyer Amshel Rothschild called the Order of the Illuminati. The objectives of this organization was to undermine the world's religions and power structures, in an effort to usher in a utopian era of global communism, which they would covertly rule by their hidden hand: the New World Order. Using secret societies, such as the Freemasons, their agenda has played itself out over the centuries, staying true to the script. The Illuminati handle opposition by a near total control of the world's media, academic opinion leaders, politicians and financiers. Still considered nothing more than theory to many, more and more people wake up each day to the possibility that this is not just a theory, but a terrifying Satanic conspiracy.

This is the first English translation of this revolutionary essay by Vladimir I. Vernadsky, the great Russian-Ukrainian biogeochemist. It was first published in 1930 in French in the Revue générale des sciences pures et appliquées. In it, Vernadsky makes a powerful and provocative argument for the need to develop what he calls “a new physics,” something he felt was clearly necessitated by the implications of the groundbreaking work of Louis Pasteur among few others, but also something that was required to free science from the long-lasting effects of the work of Isaac Newton, most notably.
For hundreds of years, science had developed in a direction which became increasingly detached from the breakthroughs made in the study of life and the natural sciences, detached even from human life itself, and committed reductionists and small-minded scientists were resolved to the fact that ultimately all would be reduced to “the old physics.” The scientific revolution of Einstein was a step in the right direction, but here Vernadsky insists that there is more progress to be made. He makes a bold call for a new physics, taking into account, and fundamentally based upon, the striking anomalies of life and human life.

Using an inspired combination of geometric logic and metaphors from familiar human experience, Bucky invites readers to join him on a trip through a four-dimensional Universe, where concepts as diverse as entropy, Einstein's relativity equations, and the meaning of existence become clear, understandable, and immediately involving. In his own words: "Dare to be naive... It is one of our most exciting discoveries that local discovery leads to a complex of further discoveries." Here are three key examples or concepts from "Synergetics":

Tensegrity

Tensegrity, or tensional integrity, refers to structural systems that use a combination of tension and compression components. The simplest example of this is the "tensegrity triangle", where three struts are held in position not by touching one another but by tensioned wires. These systems are stable and flexible. Tensegrity structures are pervasive in natural systems, from the cellular level up to larger biological and even cosmological scales.

Vector Equilibrium (VE)

The Vector Equilibrium, often referred to by Fuller as the "VE", is a geometric form that he saw as the central form in his synergetic geometry. It’s essentially a cuboctahedron. Fuller noted that the VE is the only geometric form wherein all the vectors (lines from the center to the vertices) are of equal length and angular relationship. Because of this, it’s seen as a condition of absolute equilibrium, where the forces of push and pull are balanced.

Closest Packing of Spheres

Fuller was fascinated by how spheres could be packed together in the tightest possible configuration, a concept he often linked to how nature organizes systems. For example, when you stack oranges in a grocery store, they form a hexagonal pattern, and the spheres (oranges) are in closest-packed arrangement. Fuller related this principle to atomic structures and even cosmic organization.

To prepare Americans and freedom loving people everywhere for our current global wartime reality that few understand, here comes The Citizen's Guide to Fifth Generation Warfare (CG5GW) by Lieutenant General, U.S. Army (Retired) Michael T. Flynn and Sergeant, U.S. Army (Retired) Boone Cutler. General Flynn rose to the highest levels of the intelligence community and served as the National Security Advisor to the 45th POTUS. Sergeant Boone Cutler ran the ground game as a wartime Psychological Operations team sergeant in the United States Army. Together, these two combat veterans put their combined experience and expertise into an illuminating fifth-generation warfare information series called The Citizen's Guide to Fifth Generation Warfare. Introduction to 5GW is the first session of the multipart series. The series, complete with easy-to-understand diagrams, is written for all of humanity in every freedom loving country.

Vladimir I. Vernadsky (1863-1945) was a Russian and Ukrainian mineralogist and geochemist who is best known for his work on the biosphere and the noosphere concepts. His ideas have profoundly influenced various scientific fields, from geology to biology and even philosophy. Here's the summary of his one of his concepts:

Biosphere :

  • Vernadsky defined the biosphere as the thin layer of Earth where life exists, encompassing all living organisms and the parts of the Earth where they interact. This includes the depths of the oceans to the upper layers of the atmosphere.
  • He posited that life plays a critical role in transforming the Earth's environment. In this view, living organisms are not just passive inhabitants of the planet, but active agents of change. This idea contrasts with more traditional views that saw life as simply adapting to pre-existing environmental conditions.
  • One example of this transformative power is the oxygen-rich atmosphere, which was created by photosynthesizing organisms over billions of years.

It's worth noting that Vernadsky's ideas were formulated in a period when the world was experiencing rapid technological changes and were before the advent of concerns about global challenges like climate change. Today, his ideas can be seen in a new light, as we recognize the significant impact human activity has on the planet, from the changing climate to the alteration of biogeochemical cycles. Overall, Vernadsky's thesis about the biosphere and the noosphere offers a holistic perspective on the evolution of the Earth and humanity's role in that evolution. It emphasizes the profound interconnectedness between life, the environment, and human cognition and culture.

His ideas have profoundly influenced various scientific fields, from geology to biology and even philosophy. Here's the summary of his one of his concepts:

Noosphere :

  • The concept of the noosphere can be seen as the next evolutionary stage following the biosphere. While the biosphere represents the realm of life, the noosphere represents the realm of human thought.
  • Vernadsky believed that, just as life transformed the Earth through the biosphere, human thought and collective intelligence would transform the planet in the era of the noosphere. This transformation would be characterized by the dominance of cultural evolution over biological evolution.
  • In this paradigm, human knowledge, technology, and cultural developments would become the primary drivers of change on the planet, influencing its future direction.
  • The term "noosphere" is derived from the Greek word “nous” meaning "mind" or "intellect" and "sphaira" meaning "sphere." So, the noosphere can be thought of as the "sphere of human thought."

A close analysis of the architecture of the stupa―a Buddhist symbolic form that is found throughout South, Southeast, and East Asia. The author, who trained as an architect, examines both the physical and metaphysical levels of these buildings, which derive their meaning and significance from Buddhist and Brahmanist influences.

Building on his extensive research into the sacred symbols and creation myths of the Dogon of Africa and those of ancient Egypt, India, and Tibet, Laird Scranton investigates the myths, symbols, and traditions of prehistoric China, providing further evidence that the cosmology of all ancient cultures arose from a single now-lost source.

It is at the same time a history of language, a guide to foreign tongues, and a method for learning them. It shows, through basic vocabularies, family resemblances of languages―Teutonic, Romance, Greek―helpful tricks of translation, key combinations of roots and phonetic patterns. It presents by common-sense methods the most helpful approach to the mastery of many languages; it condenses vocabulary to a minimum of essential words; it simplifies grammar in an entirely new way; and it teaches a languages as it is actually used in everyday life.
But this book is more than a guide to foreign languages; it goes deep into the roots of all knowledge as it explores the history of speech. It lights up the dim pathways of prehistory and unfolds the story of the slow growth of human expression from the most primitive signs and sounds to the elaborate variations of the highest cultures. Without language no knowledge would be possible; here we see how language is at once the source and the reservoir of all we know.

Taking only the most elementary knowledge for granted, Lancelot Hogben leads readers of this famous book through the whole course from simple arithmetic to calculus. His illuminating explanation is addressed to the person who wants to understand the place of mathematics in modern civilization but who has been intimidated by its supposed difficulty. Mathematics is the language of size, shape, and order―a language Hogben shows one can both master and enjoy.

A complete manual for the study and practice of Raja Yoga, the path of concentration and meditation. These timeless teachings is a treasure to be read and referred to again and again by seekers treading the spiritual path. The classic Sutras, at least 4,000 years old, cover the yogic teachings on ethics, meditation, and physical postures, and provide directions for dealing with situations in daily life. The Sutras are presented here in the purest form, with the original Sanskrit and with translation, transliteration, and commentary by Sri Swami Satchidananda, one of the most respected and revered contemporary Yoga masters. Sri Swamiji offers practical advice based on his own experience for mastering the mind and achieving physical, mental and emotional harmony.

William Strauss and Neil Howe will change the way you see the world - and your place in it. With blazing originality, The Fourth Turning illuminates the past, explains the present, and reimagines the future. Most remarkably, it offers an utterly persuasive prophecy about how America’s past will predict its future.

Strauss and Howe base this vision on a provocative theory of American history. The authors look back 500 years and uncover a distinct pattern: Modern history moves in cycles, each one lasting about the length of a long human life, each composed of four eras - or "turnings" - that last about 20 years and that always arrive in the same order. In The Fourth Turning, the authors illustrate these cycles using a brilliant analysis of the post-World War II period.

First comes a High, a period of confident expansion as a new order takes root after the old has been swept away. Next comes an Awakening, a time of spiritual exploration and rebellion against the now-established order. Then comes an Unraveling, an increasingly troubled era in which individualism triumphs over crumbling institutions. Last comes a Crisis - the Fourth Turning - when society passes through a great and perilous gate in history. Together, the four turnings comprise history's seasonal rhythm of growth, maturation, entropy, and rebirth.

4th Turning

Excess Deaths & Why RFK Jr. Can Win The Democratic Presidential Race - Ed Dowd | Part 1 of 2 - 06-21-2023

All original edition. Nothing added, nothing removed. This book traces the history of the ancient Khazar Empire, a major but almost forgotten power in Eastern Europe, which in the Dark Ages became converted to Judaism. Khazaria was finally wiped out by the forces of Genghis Khan, but evidence indicates that the Khazars themselves migrated to Poland and formed the cradle of Western Jewry. To the general reader the Khazars, who flourished from the 7th to 11th century, may seem infinitely remote today. Yet they have a close and unexpected bearing on our world, which emerges as Koestler recounts the fascinating history of the ancient Khazar Empire.

At about the time that Charlemagne was Emperor in the West. The Khazars' sway extended from the Black Sea to the Caspian, from the Caucasus to the Volga, and they were instrumental in stopping the Muslim onslaught against Byzantium, the eastern jaw of the gigantic pincer movement that in the West swept across northern Africa and into Spain.Thereafter the Khazars found themselves in a precarious position between the two major world powers: the Eastern Roman Empire in Byzantium and the triumphant followers of Mohammed.As Koestler points out, the Khazars were the Third World of their day. They chose a surprising method of resisting both the Western pressure to become Christian and the Eastern to adopt Islam. Rejecting both, they converted to Judaism. Mr. Koestler speculates about the ultimate faith of the Khazars and their impact on the racial composition and social heritage of modern Jewry.

Few people noticed the secret codewords used by our astronauts to describe the moon. Until now, few knew about the strange moving lights they reported.
George H. Leonard, former NASA scientist, fought through the official veil of secrecy and studied thousands of NASA photographs, spoke candidly with dozens of NASA officials, and listened to hours and hours of astronauts' tapes.
Here, Leonard presents the stunning and inescapable evidence discovered during his in-depth investigation:

  • Immense mechanical rigs, some over a mile long, working the lunar surface.
  • Strange geometric ground markings and symbols.
  • Lunar constructions several times higher than anything built on Earth.
  • Vehicles, tracks, towers, pipes, conduits, and conveyor belts running in and across moon craters.
Somebody else is indeed on the Moon, and engaged in activities on a massive scale. Our space agencies, and many of the world's top scientists, have known for years that there is intelligent life on the moon.

The article delves into the history of the Khazars, a polity in the Northern Caucasus that existed from the mid-seventh century until about 970 CE. Contrary to popular belief, the term "Khazars" is misleading as it was a multiethnic entity, and it's uncertain which specific group adopted Judaism. The Khazars first emerged in the seventh century, defeating the Bulgars, which led to the Bulgars' dispersion to various regions. The Khazar Empire was established through the expulsion of the Bulgars and was multiethnic in nature. The language spoken by the Khazars is debated, with some suggesting Turkic origins and others pointing to Slavic. The Khazars had several cities and fortresses, with significant archaeological findings. The Khazars had interactions with various empires, including wars with the Arabs and alliances with Byzantine emperors. By the mid-10th century, the Khazar capital of Itil was destroyed by the Russians. The article concludes that much of what is known about the Khazars is based on limited sources.

In The Science of the Dogon, Laird Scranton demonstrated that the cosmological structure described in the myths and drawings of the Dogon runs parallel to modern science--atomic theory, quantum theory, and string theory--their drawings often taking the same form as accurate scientific diagrams that relate to the formation of matter.

Sacred Symbols of the Dogon uses these parallels as the starting point for a new interpretation of the Egyptian hieroglyphic language. By substituting Dogon cosmological drawings for equivalent glyph-shapes in Egyptian words, a new way of reading and interpreting the Egyptian hieroglyphs emerges. Scranton shows how each hieroglyph constitutes an entire concept, and that their meanings are scientific in nature.

The Dogon people of Mali, West Africa, are famous for their unique art and advanced cosmology. The Dogon’s creation story describes how the one true god, Amma, created all the matter of the universe. Interestingly, the myths that depict his creative efforts bear a striking resemblance to the modern scientific definitions of matter, beginning with the atom and continuing all the way to the vibrating threads of string theory. Furthermore, many of the Dogon words, symbols, and rituals used to describe the structure of matter are quite similar to those found in the myths of ancient Egypt and in the daily rituals of Judaism. For example, the modern scientific depiction of the informed universe as a black hole is identical to Amma’s Egg of the Dogon and the Egyptian Benben Stone.

The Science of the Dogon offers a case-by-case comparison of Dogon descriptions and drawings to corresponding scientific definitions and diagrams from authors like Stephen Hawking and Brian Greene, then extends this analysis to the counterparts of these symbols in both the ancient Egyptian and Hebrew religions. What is ultimately revealed is the scientific basis for the language of the Egyptian hieroglyphs, which was deliberately encoded to prevent the knowledge of these concepts from falling into the hands of all but the highest members of the Egyptian priesthood.

Anthony C. Yu’s translation of The Journey to the West,initially published in 1983, introduced English-speaking audiences to the classic Chinese novel in its entirety for the first time. Written in the sixteenth century, The Journey to the West tells the story of the fourteen-year pilgrimage of the monk Xuanzang, one of China’s most famous religious heroes, and his three supernatural disciples, in search of Buddhist scriptures. Throughout his journey, Xuanzang fights demons who wish to eat him, communes with spirits, and traverses a land riddled with a multitude of obstacles, both real and fantastical. An adventure rich with danger and excitement, this seminal work of the Chinese literary canonis by turns allegory, satire, and fantasy.

With over a hundred chapters written in both prose and poetry, The Journey to the West has always been a complicated and difficult text to render in English while preserving the lyricism of its language and the content of its plot. But Yu has successfully taken on the task, and in this new edition he has made his translations even more accurate and accessible. The explanatory notes are updated and augmented, and Yu has added new material to his introduction, based on his original research as well as on the newest literary criticism and scholarship on Chinese religious traditions. He has also modernized the transliterations included in each volume, using the now-standard Hanyu Pinyin romanization system. Perhaps most important, Yu has made changes to the translation itself in order to make it as precise as possible.

One of the great works of Chinese literature, The Journey to the West is not only invaluable to scholars of Eastern religion and literature, but, in Yu’s elegant rendering, also a delight for any reader.

The Oera Linda Book is a 19th-century translation by Dr. Ottema and WIlliam R. Sandbach of an old manuscript written in the Old Frisian language that records historical, mythological, and religious themes of remote antiquity, compiled between 2194 BC and AD 803.

  • The Oera Linda book challenges traditional views of pre-Christian societies.
  • Christianization is likened to a "great reset" that erased previous civilizations.
  • The Fryan language provides insights into the beliefs and values of the Fryan people.
  • The cyclical nature of time is emphasized, suggesting patterns in history.
  • The importance of identity and understanding one's roots is highlighted.
  • The Oera Linda book offers wisdom and insights into several European languages.

The Oera Linda book offers a fresh perspective on our history, challenging the notion that pre-Christian societies were uncivilized. It suggests that the Christianization of societies was a form of "great reset," erasing and demonizing what existed before. The Oera Linda writings hint at an advanced civilization with its own laws, writing, and societal structures. Jan Ott's translation from the Fryan language provides insights into the beliefs and values of the Fryan people. The text also touches upon the guilt many feel today, even if they aren't religious, about issues like climate change and historical slavery. It criticizes the way science is sometimes treated like a religion, with scientists acting as its preachers. The cyclical nature of time is emphasized, suggesting that understanding history requires recognizing patterns and cycles. Christianity is portrayed as one of the most significant resets in history, with sects fighting and erasing each other's scriptures. The importance of identity is highlighted, with a focus on the Fryans, a tribe that faced challenges from another tribe from Finland. This other tribe had a different moral compass, leading to conflicts and eventual assimilation. The text suggests that the true history of the Fryans and their values might have been distorted by subsequent Christian narratives. The Oera Linda book is seen as a source of wisdom, shedding light on the origins of several European languages and offering insights into values like freedom, truth, and justice.

The Talmud is one of the most important holy books of the Hebrew religion and of the world. No English translation of the book existed until the author presented this work. To this day, very little of the actual text seems available in English -- although we find many interpretive commentaries on what it is supposed to mean. The Talmud has a reputation for being long and difficult to digest, but Polano has taken what he believes to be the best material and put it into extremely readable form. As far as holy books of the world are concerned, it is on par with The Koran, The Bhagavad-Gita and, of course, The Bible, in importance. This clearly written edition will allow many to experience The Talmud who may have otherwise not had the chance.

This five-volume set is the only complete English rendering of The Zohar, the fundamental rabbinic work on Jewish mysticism that has fascinated readers for more than seven centuries. In addition to being the primary reference text for kabbalistic studies, this magnificent work is arranged in the form of a commentary on the Bible, bringing to the surface the deeper meanings behind the commandments and biblical narrative. As The Zohar itself proclaims: Woe unto those who see in the Law nothing but simple narratives and ordinary words .... Every word of the Law contains an elevated sense and a sublime mystery .... The narratives of the Law are but the raiment Thin which it is swathed.

Twenty-one years ago, at a friend's request, a Massachusetts professor sketched out a blueprint for nonviolent resistance to repressive regimes. It would go on to be translated, photocopied, and handed from one activist to another, traveling from country to country across the globe: from Iran to Venezuela―where both countries consider Gene Sharp to be an enemy of the state―to Serbia; Afghanistan; Vietnam; the former Soviet Union; China; Nepal; and, more recently and notably, Tunisia, Egypt, Yemen, Libya, and Syria, where it has served as a guiding light of the Arab Spring.

This short, pithy, inspiring, and extraordinarily clear guide to overthrowing a dictatorship by nonviolent means lists 198 specific methods to consider, depending on the circumstances: sit-ins, popular nonobedience, selective strikes, withdrawal of bank deposits, revenue refusal, walkouts, silence, and hunger strikes. From Dictatorship to Democracy is the remarkable work that has made the little-known Sharp into the world's most effective and sought-after analyst of resistance to authoritarian regimes.

Bill Cooper, former United States Naval Intelligence Briefing Team member, reveals information that remains hidden from the public eye. This information has been kept in topsecret government files since the 1940s. His audiences hear the truth unfold as he writes about the assassination of John F. Kennedy, the war on drugs, the secret government, and UFOs. Bill is a lucid, rational, and powerful speaker whose intent is to inform and to empower his audience. Standing room only is normal. His presentation and information transcend partisan affiliations as he clearly addresses issues in a way that has a striking impact on listeners of all backgrounds and interests. He has spoken to many groups throughout the United States and has appeared regularly on many radio talk shows and on television. In 1988 Bill decided to "talk" due to events then taking place worldwide, events that he had seen plans for back in the early 1970s. Bill correctly predicted the lowering of the Iron Curtain, the fall of the Berlin Wall, and the invasion of Panama. All Bill's predictions were on record well before the events occurred. Bill is not a psychic. His information comes from top secret documents that he read while with the Intelligence Briefing Team and from over seventeen years of research.

The argument that the 16th Amendment (which concerns the federal income tax) was not properly ratified and thus is invalid has been a topic of debate among some tax protesters and scholars. One of the individuals associated with this theory is Bill Benson, who asserted that the 16th Amendment was fraudulently ratified. Here's a brief overview of the argument: 1. Research and Documentation: Bill Benson, along with another individual named M.J. "Red" Beckman, wrote a two-volume work called "The Law That Never Was" in the 1980s. This work was a product of Benson's extensive travels to various state archives to examine the original ratification documents related to the 16th Amendment. 2. Claims of Irregularities: In his work, Benson presented evidence that claimed many of the states either did not ratify the 16th Amendment properly or made mistakes in their resolutions. Some of these alleged irregularities included misspellings, incorrect wording, and other deviations from the proposed amendment. 3. Philander Knox's Role: In 1913, Philander Knox, who was the U.S. Secretary of State at the time, declared that the 16th Amendment had been ratified by the necessary three-fourths of the states. Benson's contention is that Knox was aware of the various discrepancies and irregularities in the ratification process but chose to fraudulently declare the amendment ratified anyway. 4. Legal Challenges and Court Rulings: Over the years, some tax protesters have used Benson's findings to challenge the legality of the income tax. However, these challenges have been consistently rejected by the courts. In fact, several courts have addressed Benson's research and arguments directly and found them to be without legal merit. The courts have repeatedly upheld the validity of the 16th Amendment. 5. Counterarguments: Critics of Benson's theory argue that even if there were minor discrepancies in the wording or format of the ratification documents, they do not invalidate the overarching intent of the states to ratify the amendment. Additionally, they assert that there's no substantive evidence that Knox acted fraudulently. It's worth noting that despite the popularity of this theory among certain groups, the legal consensus in the U.S. is that the 16th Amendment was validly ratified and is a legitimate part of the U.S. Constitution. Those who refuse to pay income taxes based on this theory have faced legal penalties.

The article delves into the evolution of the concept of the ether in physics. Historically, the ether was postulated to explain the propagation of light, with figures like Newton and Huygens suggesting its existence. By the late 19th century, Maxwell's electromagnetic theory linked light's propagation to the ether, a theory experimentally validated by Hertz in 1888. Lorentz expanded on this, focusing on wave transmission in moving media. The article contrasts the English approach, which sought tangible models, with the phenomenological view, which aimed for a descriptive approach without specific hypotheses. The piece also touches on various mechanical theories and models proposed over the years, emphasizing the challenges in defining the ether's properties and its evolving nature in scientific discourse.

The TRUE story of Nikola Tesla - by Lt Col Thomas Bearden - 1990's

Episode Summary:

Tom Bearden, a retired lieutenant colonel and researcher in aerospace, discusses his admiration for Nikola Tesla's genius and groundbreaking inventions. He details Tesla's grand vision for wireless energy, the promising and ill-fated Wardencliffe project, and his relationship with financier Morgan. Despite Tesla's revolutionary ideas, he faced resistance from the scientific community, misunderstanding from financiers, and some personal flaws that contributed to his fall from grace. A combination of Tesla's arrogance, resentment from academics, misunderstandings of his work, and his gambling on Wardencliffe led to his downfall, despite his profound contributions to electromagnetics and energy.

The text discusses Morgan's decision to cease funding Tesla's work, leading to the failure of Tesla's projects. Morgan considered Tesla's efforts a bad investment as Marconi seemed closer to success in wireless transmission. Tesla's later life was marred by misunderstandings and idiosyncrasies, with the scientific community labeling him as a kook. The author explores Tesla's insights into electromagnetics, challenging conventional models and emphasizing Maxwell's original theories in quaternion algebra. The text also delves into wave theories, highlighting Tesla's belief in longitudinal sound waves, contrasting with common scientific understanding, and suggesting a need to revisit Tesla's perspective.

The text discusses the nature of waves, contrasting the theories of Nikola Tesla with conventional wisdom. It explains how waves exist as both longitudinal and transverse forms, debunking popular misconceptions. The author emphasizes Tesla's correctness in understanding longitudinal waves in the vacuum, contrasting with Maxwell's assumption of transverse string waves. The passage also elaborates on Tesla's wireless transmission of energy and his understanding of the electromagnetic wave. Modern quantum mechanics and theories of force-free fields are referenced, bringing Tesla's ideas closer to contemporary scientific thought. The text asserts that Tesla's discoveries are in line with nature and can be applied to transmission with minimal loss.

The text discusses Tesla's pioneering work in nonlinear optics, particularly in the area of phase conjugation and self-targeting. It describes how Tesla's principles apply to various frequencies and wave types, allowing for precise focusing of energy. The author speculates about Tesla's possible involvement in the Siberian explosion and contrasts Tesla's clean electromagnetic energy methods with traditional nuclear power. The author reveals that he has been working on similar principles to Tesla, using longitudinal waves for energy transmission, and has recently filed a patent on this creation. The text also emphasizes the significance of Tesla's theoretical frameworks in understanding complex phenomena.

The text describes the concept of Displacement current and its division into two components. It details a barrier technology invented by Bill Fogel that conserves energy while avoiding work loss. The principle is likened to a heat pump, and the text connects to Tesla's theories of energy extraction from the vacuum, possibly hinting at free energy machines. It also discusses the potential weaponization of Tesla's works, mentions the involvement of Russians, and references historical contexts like World War II, atomic bombs, and Stalin's strategic plans. The tone indicates a belief in the untapped potential of the mentioned concepts.

The text discusses the Soviet Union's vigorous search for scientific breakthroughs, with a particular focus on nonlinear mathematics and the development of superweapons. It emphasizes how they scoured Western literature for insights and developed unique insights into the nonlinear aspects of physics, contrasting this approach with that of the U.S. The author also highlights the fall of communism, mentioning the increasingly dangerous world with the proliferation of nuclear weapons and new scalar electromagnetic weapons. Three other hostile nations are working on these Tesla weapons, and the potential for energy manipulation and time effects creates an even more frightening future scenario.

The text emphasizes the urgent need for advancements in clean energy and medical treatments. It highlights the failures of allopathic medicine and discusses experimental treatments involving electromagnetic extensions influenced by Tesla's work. A key example is Antoine Priori's research on curing terminal tumors in animals. The text also speaks of the suppression and destruction of Priori's work by political forces. Additionally, it explores the mysterious "woodpecker" signal transmitted by the Soviets on July 4, 1976, which may be part of a scalar interferometry weapon system. The innovations in both energy and medical fields are connected to the principles and inventions of Nikola Tesla.

The text discusses the possibility of Tesla weapons systems, specifically focusing on the evidence tied to woodpecker signals and the work of a Soviet physicist named Koznashev. Koznashev's experiments suggest the ability to transmit diseases electromagnetically, with replications in various universities. Mention of incidents involving ionization devices and an emphasis on the implications of using scalar transmitters is also discussed. The text raises concerns about the use of such technology for mass population warfare and the spread of diseases, connecting it to broader topics of nuclear and biological warfare. The danger of such weapons falling into the hands of irrational or smaller nations concludes the discussion.

The text discusses the emergence of dangerous weapons and technologies, referencing Tesla's work and developments in electromagnetics. It emphasizes the immediate threats posed by these advancements, including biological warfare and the application of weapons by irrational groups. Alongside these dangers, the text also explores the potential for positive applications, such as the gradual elimination of fossil fuels through over-unity electromagnetic devices. The ethical responsibility to use care with these technologies is emphasized. Finally, the text reflects on Nikola Tesla's unique ability to visualize systems and the context of his work, questioning how his groundbreaking inventions could be lost or abandoned.

The TRUE story of Nikola Tesla - by Lt Col Thomas Bearden - 1990's

Well, my name is Tom Bearden. I'm a retired lieutenant colonel presently also rather suddenly retired from aerospace. With the aerospace step down widespread throughout the country, I've been doing research for many years into several areas. One on some of the work of Nikola Tesla. One on the area of trying to produce both a theory and some practical results for overunity electrical machines.

Small amount of work in antigravity and then some medical applications, primarily in a new kind of electromagnetics. I once said Tesla was a dichotomy. Certainly Tesla had certain idiosyncrasies which have been played up. Usually any creative genius does if you accept those and don't dwell on those. Tesla was a magnificent genius, in my opinion.

I think he was so far ahead of his time and what he could do and what he understood not necessarily in the language and the phraseology we use today, but in his own language and his own phraseology. I think he was well ahead of the times, 100 years ahead of his times. And maybe in this conversation we'll even go into that. If Nikola Tesla is what you said he is why is he so relatively unknown to the general public through a whole series of events? Tesla, in his life story, admitted one time he had been a gambler and then he quit because he was compulsive gambler.

The last great gamble that Tesla took, he lost. And that, of course, was his great installation on Long Island Wardencliffe. He had, at that time put everything he had into, you might say, one kettle. It was funded by Morgan. There was some struggle between Morgan and another financier who were in a great struggle with each other.

It affected the stock market. It created inflation and everything. Plus, Tesla had done a very strange thing as a gambler. He knew that Morgan would never give him his $150,000 that he needed to do the installation that he really wanted to do, which was going to cost more than that by some amount. So he had designed a smaller installation of two transmitters.

When he briefed Morgan and he briefed him only on the communications aspect of it, tesla had foreseen, as many people had at that time but he had clearly foreseen the broadcast industry sending pictures and sound and music and so forth and information through the air. So Morgan financed the $150,000 based on communications. Only Morgan knew of Marconi's work and some others who were racing to try to be the first wireless, as they called it in those days. Morgan was he didn't care about all the finesse and so forth. He was strictly a financier.

He was strictly interested in making money. And he knew this new area was going to go and going to make money, a lot of money for whoever got there first. And in his opinion, tesla had the best chance to get there first. So that's why he backed Tesla. Tesla, however, was even more interested in doing a worldwide energy system to provide energy that would be very cheap for everybody in the world, anywhere on the Earth.

And so the actual installation that he started building was this giant installation, so well known to the Tesla fans and people who read of Tesla and the struggle between Morgan and his counterpart. His counterpart almost bought Morgan's Railroad Company right out from under him. He bought, in fact, control of the voting shares of the preferred stock, but not of the common stock. And Morgan issued orders from Europe to buy all the stock that could be bought at any cost in one day. The stock made astronomical jumps.

The whole stock market went crazy. We don't have anything like that in our time. Inflation became suddenly rampant. Parts and electrical things went up three times, for example, and suddenly everybody furnishing parts. There was a panic because of the money shortage and everything, and the stock we would today call it a crash in other stocks.

So what happened is they began demanding all their money up front to the very beginning. Are you saying that Tesla was forgotten after Wardencliffe? That it was Wardencliffe that ruined his reputation? Well, it was a combination of events. There were many people who resented Tesla, particularly among the academic community.

Number one, they didn't understand at all how he worked. He didn't have the academic credentials, what they regarded the high academic credentials they had. He, of course, had academic credentials. He certainly had been very vocal. That the common electromagnetic theory, which he usually referred to as the Hertz theory and the Hertz waves, since know, proved the Maxwell predicted wave, tesla was adamant that there were no transverse Maxwell Hertz waves in the ether and that he, Tesla, was not using that kind of theory at all.

That theory was very limited and did not apply to what he was doing. In other words, what he was saying to the entire scientific mind of the day was that what you're doing, gentlemen, is erroneous, not only that I'm proving you're an error, but because he had become a household word, when you do, you become a single name Tesla, not Nikola Tesla, you see. And because of this kind of effect, he had become essentially the great wizard. He had given us the AC power system and everything. And there was a great deal of resentment for what they regarded as an upstart inventor who was, in fact essentially saying, I'm going to usurp your science.

They would interpret it that way. Not all people were detractors, but many were. He also was not a great theoretician. He didn't fill up books with great theories and full of mathematics, and so he just didn't practice the game as it was being practiced. He was ostracized, I think, primarily because of his difference and because of his radical statements and because of his pronouncements of great systems, they didn't have the foggiest notion of what he was talking about.

He had one other unfortunate incident which today we would laugh at, but was very serious at the time. I think it was 19 one. I'd have to check my records. He picked up radio signals from space. We know today, of course, that planets, radiate, RF noise and so forth, but when he announced this, it just caused a sensation and all the scientists said immediately, what a kook, what an idiot.

So an unfortunate reaction occurred in the scientific community that he had to be an utter kook because everybody knew that there were no signals from space and that was an unfortunate timing and contributed to his demise. Nicolettesl also had an ego very big, and there's some argument for the fact that his ego or his vision of self may have undone him as well. Could you address that? Yes, that's quite true. He was arrogant.

He knew in his mind what he had done and what he could do. He had done the experiments, for example, in his few months at Colorado Springs, which proved that he was on the right path. And he was hastening back to New York to get the funding from Morgan and set up his warden, Cliff, and get on with doing the wireless, but also the other energy at the same time. He was going to do it all in one stroke. And when this panic came along and supplies went up and finally he made the final fatal mistake.

He briefed Morgan in desperation. That what he was really about, because he thought Morgan would appreciate that he simply did not understand. A financier who's not interested in all of that. But what is it going to do to make me money? There's nothing wrong with that.

I'm just saying that's the way Morgan approached it at that point, morgan also knew that Marconi was closing in on it and very close to transmitting wireless across the ocean, the Atlantic. So Morgan knew at that point briefed on what yet had to be done and how much money Tesla needed and all that. He knew the game was lost from a communication viewpoint that Marconi was going to be first. So at that point, Morgan in his own mind wrote it off as a bad investment going sour. And one thing he did not do was throw good money after bad.

A perfectly sound business decision today, we would say. So he simply wrote the project off. Tesla could never understand for some months thereafter what had happened, why he couldn't get the extra money. People began to quit work because he couldn't pay them. The suppliers wouldn't send him his supplies because he couldn't pay them upfront.

And the whole thing began to sort of grind to a halt. He did get the installation in operation, but he never succeeded at what he was doing, and by that time, Morgan was never going to finance him again. A combination of events then occurred within a few years of that to where suddenly things began to shift. The jealousy of the scientific community began to suggest that he was, after all, just a kook. Everybody knew that thing on Warden Cliff was foolish, and so he became almost a non person in the space of a very few years.

An older man living in a hotel room, feeding the pigeons with all his idiosyncrasies. He really did have idiosyncrasies. He had a morbid fear of germs. He would use something like 17 white napkins for a meal that he would have and meticulously lay one aside. Once he made the first wipe with it to wipe his hands or whatever, he had a lot of idiosyncrasies.

And of course, his autocratic pronouncements, as you say. His ego also was there. He also had quite an ego. And so people just shuttled him aside and said, well, he's at best an egomaniac who's mistaken, and at worst, he's just a lunatic. When they simply wrote out of the books what he had done, I focused in on the electromagnetics, because early on in my work, I also became disenchanted with the present electromagnetics model.

To understand Tesla, you must take seriously, I think, his suggestion that the present electromagnetics model is seriously flawed. Nobody wants to take that seriously. Most of the people who approach Tesla use the conventional electromagnetics, and when they cannot explain what he was talking about, they say, therefore, the man was a kook. Now, suppose for a moment that he really was correct. Suppose there is something wrong with the classical electromagnetics.

Of course you can use the classical model to do the things we do, but it means there are many other things that can be done that we cannot do, because we have excluded that part from our model and from our teaching and from our knowledge and from our instruments. Let's pursue that a moment. The original electromagnetics written by Maxwell himself was written in an algebra called quaternions.

What we mean here is a higher topology algebra in which you can do things in this kind of expression of electromagnetics that you can't do in vectors or tensors. Now, the real theory that Maxwell had, depending on who counts the equations and what they count, is something like 20 equations and 20 unknowns to give some numbers to it. When Heavyside got through, translating it into a much simpler algebra called vectors, which he helped create, and he wrote all the modern equations that are used as Maxwell's equations, not Maxwell himself. None of those ever appeared in anything by James Clerk. Maxwell, when Heavyside modified it to a much easier algebra called vector analysis, which he helped complete the algebra itself.

It consisted of some two equations or so with an extra equation thrown in, depending on the way you want to count that again, certainly if you want to count the full thing, four equations so you can see a remarkable reduction in the amount of variations of things you could do. And that's what I mean when I say we previously had an electromagnetics that permitted lots of functioning that is no longer permitted by the kind of electromagnetics we're all taught to apply and use today. It's a subset of what can be done. A scientist by the name Barrett, a very brilliant scientist, has done a very good analysis when Hertz announced his discovery of the maximum waves. It's in there if you read it.

But actually, Tesla went to Hertz to convince him of the error of his waves and showed him experiments and everything else to prove that the wave that was actually in the ether was not a transverse string wave, but in fact was what today we would call an longitudinal sound wave, a wave of refaction and compression. He did do that and was not able to convince Hertz. But Hertz was very disheartened by all this evidence that Tesla had given him, but never revealed what the evidence was. Let's look now and see if there's any room for what Tesla was saying. And I want to tell you a story of the greatest joke on all of science in all of history, because you'll never understand Tesla till you know this joke.

When they were trying to write the wave equation for the plucked string wave, of course they were studying plucked stringed instruments. You have a taut string suspended between two points on the body of an instrument and they simply plucked the string various ways and watched the waves. They then wrote equations for the tensile forces and so forth in the string. They isolated the string. They assumed that there's nothing else happening but the string and using the forces.

And they still teach the sophomore students to do it this way, they derived the string wave equation. First of all, there is no such thing as a tight string independently existing apart from a holder anywhere in the world. There never will be. There is, however, a tight string which has equal and opposite forces in the ends of the holder that's holding the string and creating the tension on the string. If you will apply the same approach and ask yourself the full question what system was perturbed?

It was not just the tight string. It was the tight string plus the body of the instrument. What comes about is that every transverse string wave that occurred the string, an equal and opposite, highly damped wave occurred down in the body of the instrument. Every guitar picker, which I'm a very poor one knows that the body of the instrument vibrates when you pluck the string. You depend on the characteristic of that for your sound.

What happened, though, by throwing away the holder and the anti wave in the holder? Every time a mathematician or a physicist writes a wave equation, he has thrown away half of the problem of the phenomena. The anti wave still exists, but he threw it somewhere, usually into a highly damp system and ignores it. The way he gets by with that at the end where he has now described his reactions with the single wave equation, the transverse wave equation, the other wave reappears, and he says, oh, that's Newton's Third Law reaction force, because it's always equal and opposite. Well, Newton's third law is not a law.

It's a description. It is not a mechanism for what causes something at all. If you add back in the wave that is missing, guess what you get? You get equal and opposite waves in the vacuum. These waves are, in fact, longitudinal waves.

They are more soundlike. And Tesla was right, and all the textbooks in the world are wrong. Now, let's turn that from talking sound. Let's turn it to electromagnetics. If I examine an atom and I see the complex assembly of dipoles, each dipole being The Electron charge and the piece of the positive charge of the nucleus, I find something very similar to the holder and the string.

That is, I have something very light, the electron which is perturbed, and I have Something Which is highly damp, the very heavy nucleus by the equal and opposite anti disturbance. And we still know that exists, but we call it Newton's Third Law. We just, invoke a Description, have no idea what causes it. But anyway, if the wave comes in from the vacuum and is intercepted by one of these dipoles, in addition to the disturbance, the string wave that we will see off of the electron end, we will have the anti wave, the recoil forces on the other end. And so always we get equal and opposite.

We do get the opposite wave. And what came in from the vacuum had both the separation between The Two charges caused The Separation Of The Two waves, just as the separation between the String and The Body of the instrument caused The Separation of the wave in any wave in the plucked string instrument. So we still have the same thing, and we still hold to the fact there is a longitudinal Wave in the vacuum, not just A single transverse wave. Now let us see what happens when we launch a wave now that we know that from an antenna. When I launch a wave from a physical antenna, the matter in the antenna is made of these same atoms and these same dipoles.

And in addition to launching the wave from the electron shells and the electron interactions, there is a highly damped anti wave launched at much less disturbance, highly reduced of the anti wave. But as soon as it emerges from the antenna, there is no longer any damping because there's no longer any heavy nuclear mass. And so immediately it pops to full shape and full size. And so we still have the longitudinal wave in the vacuum that we launch. Can I prove that in what we receive?

Yes, indeed, I can. And you must understand this if you ever understand Nikola Tesla. Now let me go to the reception of this wave in a circuit and I have some free electrons in my circuit. And in comes the wave from the vacuum. The electrons in the circuit are pushing against their brothers down the road, which pushes back, and it's restrained.

It had very difficult for it to move longitudinally. We know that today. We know that it only moves down the wire at something like 11ft/hour. The signal that moves down the wire at near light speed will have completely exited the solar system and gone on by that time. So, as you can see, we have a very sluggish electron restrained, which is spinning.

We know today when they wrote those equations, they didn't even have the notion of the electron. So it acts as a gyro and by gyro theory, right out of the book. When you longitudinally disturb a gyro that's restrained, it will process sideways. And all of our instruments measure and detect the electron precession waves. That's what we put on our oscilloscopes and what we read with our instruments.

And yes, indeed, gentlemen, we do detect the electron wiggle waves. And they are transverse waves. But a gyro reacts and processes at right angle to the actual disturbance, which proves that it is a longitudinal wave in the vacuum. If you do not believe that you must throw away all gyro theory. Tesla was right.

Every textbook in the US. Is Wrong. Maxwell simply assumed out of thin air, the transverse string wave, because that's what everybody was familiar with when he wrote the first equations. And it's never been changed to this day. So.

Was Tesla aware of this? And is this what Tesla was talking about when he talked about telephones? It was deeply involved in it. Tesla made several statements. For example, over and over where he said there are no transverse waves in the vacuum.

No hertz waves. The waves in the vacuum I have already proved, he said, is like the gas and the waves in it therefore are like sound waves. They are longitudinal waves. And he was indeed correct. Today.

For example, in modern quantum mechanics, there is a vacuum. It is a medium and it's a virtual particle flux. And so, indeed, the vacuum is a virtual gas by today's best physics. And Tesla was right. It is a longitudinal wave and I've just explained how it's split when it's received.

You do get what we measure with our instruments because of the electron precession and you also get the any wave at the same time proving that it was an extra wave there down in the nucleus in the materials which do recall and we just ignore it. We know it's there, but we just ignore it. Now, let's look, for example, at his statement of wireless transmission. Here. He was talking of the transmission of energy through the atmosphere or indeed, through space, without loss.

As a matter of fact. If that is true, then it already exists in nature. Tesla had rediscovered nature. As a matter of fact, today, in modern theory, we know that the energy in an electromagnetic wave transmitted is already conserved. If you take a wavelength at any length from an omni transmitter and you take the hemispherical shell of that wavelength times the entire surface area of that shell, the energy that's in that shell is the same as the energy in any other shell of any radius.

The energy is totally conserved and none of it is lost. We already know that that part is absolutely correct. The energy density course goes way down as the shell expands. So that part is unquestionable. Now, the question is, can we direct that and can we control it?

In a sense, if we do a laser beam, we do that. There's a better way to do it if we go to Whitaker's paper which was written in 1903 and some other papers have been written since then. Like by Zolkowski and by sue in 1993. Even Zolkowski in the strange thing comes about what we call the electrostatic scalar potential. That is pure voltage.

To simplify. It can be broken down into a bi directional set of wave pairs. One wave going one way, the other way. Time reversed and locked on it in space. So what we call just voltage or just potential has actually got a hidden set of incredible amount of waves going in both directions.

And not only we consider it just a fixed value at a point in space, but as a matter of fact, it's a tremendous energy flow. So what Tesla really discovered was how to combine the waves so that they eliminated the gradients. Technically speaking, the gradients opposed each other, but were still there. But now hidden the net gradient and the net force field was gone. We know today.

The other electromagnetics is still there. And we have an energy flow in both directions. So he simply found out how to do that. And yes, indeed, there is no loss in that kind of potential. If you make a beam of that, you can indeed transmit energy in a completely hidden fashion.

You can stick a normal meter right in the beam and it won't see a thing because there's no force field and you can transmit it at a distance. How effectively depends on the ability to make the beam how narrow you can make the beam and hold it together. And the other thing depends on a slight interaction with the atmosphere in the middle. You'll spill a little, but you can do it 98% or so, which I think is what Tesla said. Also, there's one other thing we must say about that.

There Is emerging In The Last Few years and Has Emerged in orthodox science at an advanced level what I would say is the very beginning. But it's moving pretty fast. Theory of force free fields and these are getting very close to what Tesla was doing. They haven't added the anti wave back in yet, but they're getting close. At least they're eliminating the overall force and doing something else with the electromagnetics that remains.

The other thing which must be brought to bear, and I must do this very precisely to understand Tesla is the fact that, for example, if you read Jackson and classical Electrodynamics, you will find when he's first setting out in the first so many pages, he points out very clearly that this theory, this very beautiful theory, only holds when the background is reasonably well behaved, reasonably linear. He points out that if the background becomes nonlinear that you must then turn to the emerging field or the field that has emerged in nonlinear optics. Nonlinear optics in some fashions is an unfortunate term because the mechanisms are fundamental. They apply to all frequencies and they apply to all kinds of waves. It's a matter of when the background gets sufficiently nonlinear to induce these phenomena.

So as long as you continue to try to keep the background linear which we're great at doing we try really to sweep out these phenomena. Tesla had stumbled into this area very early on and mastered part of this area long before the terminology I'm using existed. He knew how to do number one, what today we call phase conjugation. He knew how to do what we call pumped phase conjugation. And he even knew how to do what we call technically today amongst very few people self targeting.

So he had some tools at his fingertips which he could use on the lab bench and build equipment he worked on an enormous number of years on which could do things that the normal electromagnetics cannot do. We do some of them today in nonlinear optics. Now, let me talk about self targeting so you can understand some of his transmission without loss. One of the problems we have like, for example, in something like missile defense if I have a spaceborne laser, let me say, and I have a rising enemy booster 10,000 miles away I've got a problem. I've got lots of power.

I can put the laser beam onto the booster but I must hold it on one particular spot 15,000 miles away. On that exact spot, long enough time, called dwell time to burn through the casing and destroy the booster. So I have a problem. How do I hold this beam there and keep it from wandering around on the body of the booster? Well, it turns out you can do it very easily with a thing called self targeting.

Every signal that comes from there, if I phase conjugate and transmit a phase conjugate replica it goes unerringly back to the spot including it lead it a little bit because the component of its motion was on the beam that came to me. And so if I continue to do that, iteratively I can hold the beam exactly on the booster and burn through it. So by self targeting, I can hold a laser beam on a point. It doesn't have to be a booster, a defense or anything. I can hold a beam of energy onto a point that I have at a distance.

That's the main thing. By self targeting and in my own opinion, I reached the opinion that Tesla in his telegeodyodynamics, had discovered how to do that with the mechanical waves. First of all, he could transmit the full wave through the Earth and he could cause the thing when it came back to be face conjugated. Once he had a reflection from anywhere, he could narrow immediately into that point and put all his energy to that point. And today there is a theoretical basis for it.

I couldn't build such equipment, but I mean, there's a theoretical way to go to do that. And apparently, according to his statements, that's my interpretation of what he was doing, he was doing iterative phase conjugation, and therefore able to focus his energy regardless of what kind of route it followed, to the exact point he wanted it to go to on the other side of the Earth. But now, was this theoretical or was this ever demonstrated? I believe he demonstrated it. For example, my personal opinion and I certainly cannot prove this in the court of law and I want to label it as a personal opinion.

My personal opinion, because of certain time sequences of some of his statements and incidents which actually happened, I think as a last desperate measure, while his installation at Long Island was still intact and still in operation, I believe he fired the electrical pulse of energy that blew down that forest in Siberia. Oliver Nicholson has done some very good work, for example, to look at the admittedly circumstantial evidence. We can't prove it at all. I just happen to hold to the thesis that it was his last ditch effort to try to solve his problems that he'd lost with Morgan by focusing attention onto the absolute power that could be unleashed with this. And it failed.

Nobody was interested. I was very curious about the time correlation between his installation still existing on Long Island, still in operation, and this Siberian particular blast and its characteristics, which it was not a nuclear weapon, it was not a meteorite. So in doing a little work on that, thanks to Oliver Nicholson, he sent me some very good information on that. And it's not the kind of thing you can ever say with any certainty happened, certainly not. But there is at least circumstantial evidence that he may have done that.

In speaking of nuclear energy and Tesla's objection to it and some of the things he had in mind with energy, it's pretty obvious that Tesla. Not only Knew how, but advocated Very strongly that you could do this electromagnetically, and you could do it cleanly and cheaply without all the nuclear residue and the nuclear waste and the long term effects and this kind of thing. It's tough to dispose of nuclear waste. Now, I have mixed feelings on this. For example, I am a nuclear engineer.

I have a master's degree from Georgia Tech, but I'm not a practicing nuclear engineer, nor have I ever been. The army really didn't see fit to Let Me do that. Nonetheless, I know a little bit about what they're about and so forth. And a nuclear power plant is not a Great breakthrough in technology at all. It's a great heater.

And what we really do, we use the nuclear reactions to produce heat, and we either Boil water and make steam, or We Just Use The Hot water. And then it's the heat energy that we must convert to provide our electric power. Now, the demand for electric power is great enough. It's a Big enough problem, as everybody is aware, if we must continue to furnish this electric power at our present science level, there's no really acceptable alternative yet to the nuclear power plant. However, it doesn't mean that that's the preferable solution by any means.

I think it's preferable the Other way, which is why I work so hard to try to do it electromagnetically. Now, at this very conference that we're at, when this interview is being made, I'm going to introduce what is almost the final results of my 30 years of work in this area. And what we have done is very similar to what Tesla did, and he provided the codes, the clues on which to look. What I've done is taken him to heart and convinced myself with lot of investigation and study. The waves in the vacuum are longitudinal.

So when electromagnetic waves break loose from their mass restriction and holding, they are longitudinal waves. And when they get Tied up in mass, they get split into these two waves, which one of which is acting upon the electrons to cause them to move sideways. And they slip A Little bit every Once in a while down the wire, creates Newton's Third law reaction in the nucleus. Well, when you go through enough analysis of this, what you really find and what, as of Friday of this week yesterday, I have filed my associates, and I should say have filed a very fundamental patent on the creation. In a circuit of longitudinal waves to flow the energy freely, literally, in the Tesla fashion, and then use it separately in the load to power a load.

Technically, it's still called Displacement current. What we have done, we have split the normal current, technically DQ/DT, into two components, one being displacement current DPH DT, and one being that mass slippage every once in a while of these processing electrons down the wire. And what we really have done is used a barrier invented by Bill Fogel to stop the mass flow which is all the workflow the rate at which energy is being lost in the circuit. We allow only the flow past Fogal's semiconductor which is a patented device patented in 92. And then we use this free energy flow which does not disperse.

Conventional theory already recognizes displacement current as pure energy transport without losses. For example, the way to use it and I want everybody to know so they can check it. If I then run the displacement current through the primary of its step up transformer I produce ordinary garden variety magnetic field and store that free energy in that magnetic field that couples to the secondary which then couples to the electrons in that circuit through the load which are now free to move. I don't restrain them, and I pump the electrons through the load absolutely conventionally and do power in a load. So what I have is absolute conservation of energy.

But I do not conserve work loss, the dissipation of the energy. I take the energy in almost freely from the battery or power source. In this case, it would be an oscillator because I'm speaking AC. We can do a DC. I strip off and block the component of the current that's responsible for all losses in the circuit.

Then I take the displacement current and I gather it and store it, in this case, magnetic field couple it to the other side and discharge it through the load completely separately. None of my load discharge current goes back through my source. No degradation is done to the source. And yes, indeed, you can legitimately do over unity electrical systems. And it's exactly analogous to a heat pump which is a proven overunity system that we use in our homes.

I just told the world how to build a free energy machine, is what I told. Okay? Now, if we assume that what I've explained about the way we have approached the use of the energy which is freely available from the vacuum vacuum energy is now acceptable. Even physical review thanks to some fine work by people of the stature of Hal Putoff, for example. It's very straightforward, very technical and it's now an acceptable thing.

We know the vacuum and it is accepted. It's filled with energy. And Tesla always said that it was. So once again, Tesla has been vindicated by modern quantum mechanics after all of these years. I think if we look at some of the other incidents as for example, Tesla talked about being able to tap the energy of cosmic rays.

He talked, in fact, his nephew reported as a child riding in the car where Tesla had put in an engine of some kind which was self powered. So we find then later references to Tesla which suggest the harnessing of energy from today we would say from the vacuum. So does that sound reasonable to us today from where I'm coming from? Yes, indeed, because that's exactly what we have done. We take it in the potential across the source.

We simply use the hidden wave flow from the Whitaker stuff. We want to extract that and use it in this displacement current form while it's still energy flow and none of it's being lost. We do not wish to make work until we store it up and discharge it in the load separately. We do it just like a heat pump. And I really think that's probably the way Tesla did it in that car engine.

He also knew there was enormous energy in what was called cosmic rays, and he connected that with a whole idea of the energetic vacuum, we would say today. And I think that's just one of the ways he referred to it. For example, we know from T. Henry Moray's work that he was inspired by Tesla's statement that the energy of the ether itself was literally filled with rivers of energy, free for the taking. It inspired him and his great undertaking today.

The fashion is to sweep that aside and say, well, you know, I know what he was doing. Tesla just didn't know he was using this stuff that I know all about. And so I talk about the Earth ionospheric wave guide and resonance, and that's not what he was doing at all. You can't do free energy for the whole world with Earth atmospheric resonance. It isn't going to happen.

We know about that. It isn't going to happen. You know, another area that often occurs in discussions of Tesla is the notion of weaponization, of Tesla's true work that's relatively unknown to modern science, but could probably be known to some very sharp people that looked into it because they wanted to make weapons. Tesla certainly spoke of a very large series of very powerful weapons. I think that's a reasonable thing.

And let's approach it this way. Certainly I'm on record as saying the weapons exist and that several nations have weaponized them. Let me explain a little bit about what I'm talking about and a little bit key points where you might look. We know for a fact that, for example, T. Henry Moray with his power supply was visited by the Russians.

And we know that the Russians tried to, in fact, take it. They even tried to kidnap t henry Moray. And so we know that the Russians very early on were interested in things like free energy right out of the vacuum, and they were interested in weapons. There are even reports that they contacted Tesla, and I'm sure they would have. He certainly had plenty of headlines.

So if we have that, then as a starting point, we have a situation where in the late 30s particularly, and just prior to World War II, there was at least some kind of interest in contact. We know in the case of T. Henry Moore, they very probably got the exact blueprints how to build the device. Maybe a couple of things missing in here and there, but a really good lab could have eventually put it together from there. Then comes along world war II with a big interruption for everyone.

Okay? At that time, after world war II, we have a very strange situation which exists now. First thing that exists, we have suddenly thrust upon the world seen the atomic bomb. If we had not done so, we would have had a bloodbath when we tried to invade Japan. So many lives were saved by the use of the atomic bomb, and I am not an atomic bomb apologist.

Many people who are here today would not be here if their fathers had been killed by the invasion of Japan. And depending on who you believe, the casualties would have been about 1 million on our side alone. Anyway, we arrived at this state in the world where now there's a very powerful weapon which suddenly frustrates one of the things that Stalin has planned to do. Stalin, of course, had a spy in the atomic bomb project. He knew we were getting ready, so it wasn't a big surprise to him at Pottsdam when Truman told him that we had just exploded the first atomic bomb.

But he had been planning after Europe, after the European war and everything wound down, he would hold his armies for about two years. We always beat our swords back into Plowshares and go home. Historically, it's the last war. Never going to be another one. Unfortunately, human nature doesn't change, and so there is another one.

And Stalin in about two years, would keep all his armies intact and simply take over Europe in about six weeks. That was his plan. However, now he couldn't do that, because if he masked his forces, we would have bombed him back into the stone age. So he had a problem. There is at least a reason to believe that stalin called in his scientific heads when he got back from Potsdam and really laid the law down to them.

He said, the destiny of communism has been frustrated by this great new American development. That isn't going to be the last great breakthrough. But I tell you, gentlemen, one thing. The next one is going to be soviet. So he forcefully ordered them to search for the next great area, in my opinion, to look for for that breakthrough, because thereafter you find soviet scientists combing through everything.

For example, they took the entire scientific literature of the west, loaded on copies onto boats, took it back to Russia, set up huge translations, institutes staffed with very highly qualified scientists, and their job was to go through, look for anything anomalous. The anomalies they laid aside. Then they went through them with a fine tooth comb to see what looked promising. And of course, they would have found such things. We've never done anything like that.

They would have found such things as the whitaker papers. A lot of marvelous things I haven't even found yet that's in the literature that nobody's ever paid an attention to. So my thesis is that that's what happened. They started into this area for building a new superweapon immediately after World War II. Certainly they would have resurrected this More stuff they had gotten out of T.

Henry Moreay's lab through their agent. They would have probably resurrected other things. I don't even know about that's. Just conjecture, but probably so. At any rate, they did start such a program.

The Russians have always been the greatest nonlinear mathematicians in the world. They were at the beginning. They are to this day. And so they would have seen much more clearly into the nonlinear aspects of everything we're talking about than American scientists had seen to date. Which means they would have picked up what today we call the optical type functioning, which means they would have picked up the longitudinal waves.

They certainly falsified general relativity theory only later, many years later, they openly publish the fact that it's wrong and show why it's wrong and become recognized critics of the conventional general relativity in this country. We did exactly the opposite. We defended it to the last man. So they went much deeper, I think, during this period into these areas than we did. And I think they started building because, as you know from my own previous publications, I put together independently a rather large body of evidence, admittedly circumstantial, but real nonetheless.

That can only be explained by the testing of such weapons. There is absolutely no other explanation for it. Now, I could be wrong on one incident, but 200 of exactly the same kind, I think not. So the evidence is overwhelming. You even hear now, their own leaders, like Zaranovsky recently has referred to these weapons as the Ellipton weapons.

There is no question today that the Soviet Union has these weapons. And if what I put together is correct, and I'm absolutely convinced it is, three other nations of the world also developed those weapons and resoundingly checked the Soviet Union. The other three are friendly to the United States, not hostile. And I think that played one great part in the fall of the Soviet empire because their original target date, as I brought out, had been 85 to achieve the freedom to move and do what they wished in the world in 1985. And they met the schedule, as I've adequately reported.

But once checked then we have a very strange situation now. Communism falls because of its financial shortcomings, and they just flat can't keep it glued together anymore. And in the dissolution here, we have entered what I think is a much more dangerous world than anything we ever thought of. Three other nations today are indeed working on what I call the Tesla weapons or really scalar electromagnetic weapons. And these nations are not really friendly to the US.

At all. So it's a much more dangerous world that has emerged. The nuclear control that was executed by the Soviet Union has now probably been diluted. If you're careful, you can hire some Soviet scientists right off the project. Many nations today are developing nuclear weapons and they don't have to go through the pain we did.

They're hiring people who already know how to do that and have done so. So very shortly you will see emerging throughout the so called Third World, as it's so loosely referred to, you will see nuclear weapons. You will see the extended scud, for example, being developed in North Korea aided by the Chinese, and it's being expropriated to the Mideast. And in my opinion, you will see a nuclear and biological warfare in the Middle East in three or four years, somewhere on that time range, I could be off a year or two, but it isn't going to be forever. So to me, it's a much more dangerous world that we live in.

Particularly if we see the advent in addition to the nukes and the biological warfare, which is certainly frightening enough, if we see the advent of several other nations now possessing weapons of the ilken power spoken of, although at a little bit obligedly by Nikola Tesla. I would like to explain the basis for the weapons because it's open. If you take the two papers by Whitaker that I'm so fond of quoting and all my stuff, you will find that the first one tells you if you do it in reverse, tells you how to make, if you wish, a scalar beam by simply assembling the necessary wave set. The second paper will tell you that if you then take two such scalar beams, actually hidden multi waves and interfere them at a distance, yes, scalar interferometry really exists. It's just really multiple wave interferometry.

When you understand the wave sets, what will occur at a distance will be the reappearance of the electromagnetic gradients, which we call force fields. In other words, you'll create the electromagnetics at a distance if you bias your ground potential of your transmitters higher than the distant focal point, what we call energy heat energy, exhaustion of energy, which should be called work heat energy will emerge in the other area and scatter at that area. Energy will go in here and scatters work out the other end. It's just like you had a direct pipeline at the distance. Is this indicative of Tesla?

Of course. If you bias your projectors the other way, the energy flows in the other direction. In other words, you extract energy from out there and the energy you have to do something to collect and dissipate the heat back at the transmitter end. Every transmitter is now a two way transmitter of energy. I can make it go in one direction by biasing or go in the other at will.

The weapon implications of that alone are extremely frightening and extremely powerful. And now several nations are involved in developing it right, straightforward to the hilt. Very shortly we will have an even more frightening world emerging. The other thing you can do with it, which I think Tesla alluded to, at least in a few cases when you do these things with the potentials rather than with the force fields, you actually involve time. You produce time effects or you can produce effects on anything that exists in time because you affect the time dimension.

When you do this, you can affect thought and you can affect human beings where they live because thought occurs in time. It occupies time. It's just not spatial, but it is timelike. As you can probably see. If indeed the world has already acquired several nations the ability to build the defensive weapons in the area that has been discussed here, the Tesla type weapons, then there's really no longer a great compelling need to do any further weapons work by any private citizen.

So there are some other very compelling areas, however, of great need for humanity that are directly involved with Tesla's approach and Tesla's work that cry out for research and development. Two of these areas are fantastic. We must have clean energy sources. We must have some source to provide our needed electrical power cleanly and freely without polluting this entire biosphere. Everybody's concerned with that.

The way to do it is not to put in harsh laws that stop all workers and everything like this and go into absolute dictatorship. That's not the way to do it. The way to do it is to do it scientifically by striking for a great new breakthrough to where it can be done and done cheaply and cleanly. So that's one area that is important and deserves the utmost effort that can be put on it. Another area that is assuming ever more increasing urgency is the area of the medical needs.

Allopathic medicine is failing. The bugs are all changing and they're becoming immune to all our antibiotics. The orthodox scientific people are saying this openly in their journals and their articles and their editorials. Even a newspaper and Newsweek and so forth are picking it up and writing articles about it. Within five years, you will have a serious risk of your life if this trend continues just to go to the hospital.

The number is already over 10,000 per year. I don't know the exact number since 92, but it's already well above 10,000 per year that die in the hospital because the infection that they have absolutely cannot be controlled. There is one kind of staff, for example, that nothing that we have will affect. And it has about a 30% lethality, I'm told. So three out of ten who contact that die in the hospital.

These kinds of things are increasing. You now have very well recognized scientists in the regular medical scientific community saying allopathic medicine is failing and there's nothing to replace it. You cannot develop the vaccines or new compounds fast enough to even keep up with them. We have lost that battle. We must change the medical approach.

The medical approach. If you use the extended electromagnetics, if I may use that term that Tesla was talking about, there then occurs phenomena which can be used to control and change and heal almost any infectious disease whatsoever, including a genetic disease where the genetics have changed in the cells, such as AIDS. Now, that is not an idle statement. That is a very rigorous statement based on some very rigorous scientific work done in France in the late sixty s and early 70s by Antoine Priori and a team of scientists that gathered and worked with him. And these were eminent scientists world known.

For example, one of them was Robert Curier, head of the biology section of the French Academy of Science, and also the Secretary of Perpetual of the French Academy. At the same time poetryl an eminent scientist world known many such scientists worked directly with the inventor Antoine Priori. Priori completed his doctoral thesis, which was rejected because of the violent opposition of the medical establishment. But he demonstrated under rigorous scientific protocols that you could completely cure, almost with ridiculous ease, terminal tumors in lab animals. He did it hundreds of times under all the proper rigid controls.

I mean, Priori personally sent his own personal assistant to do the tumor graphs and ensure that everything was absolutely impeccable. Very simple. You take 15 rats, 30 rats, 15 each. One control group, one test group. All the rats get inoculated or engrafted with the same terminal tumor, they're going to be dead with 100% certainty in 30 days.

The 15 get treated, the other 15 don't. They stay in exactly the same room, same food, same everything. The 15 treated all get well. The 15 not treated all die. With another provision you can then take another group of 15 rats with the same tumors grafted to them.

You can take one drop of blood from each of the rats that got well and put in one of the other rats and they will all get well from that single drop of blood. The ordinary medical establishment was furious when they changed the setup of the French government to a leftist government in the mid seventy s. The Priori team was just completing a very large installation with permission to treat human patients with terminal cancer and leukemia and so forth. Now he surreptitiously treated some humans before and cured their cancers and leukemias. The problem was nobody could understand how it worked.

We didn't even have at the time the knowledge of this new parts of phase conjugate optics that we needed to understand it. It's no wonder they couldn't understand it, nobody could. And so when they suppressed that, they withdrew the funding from the project. It was funded by the French government. And when the government changed, they withdrew the funding.

All the work ceased. The equipment later was destroyed. Priori later died. At any rate, this is something absolutely legitimate. It did use the type of electromagnetic extension that I've talked about and if we open up that extension, there now is the explanation available of how it worked.

And yes, we can cure such diseases if a proper scientific development program can be mounted and funded and it will all be based in part upon the work of Nikola Tesla. Often there's been a great curiosity about this strange thing the Russians suddenly injected onto the world. They had done some pretesting. But suddenly, on July 4, 1976, for a bicentennial present for us, the Soviets opened up some great new transmitters in the communication band, which, because of the chirping sound and the sound just like a woodpecker's bill hitting a block of wood, was immediately dubbed woodpecker by all the ham radio operators who had it interfering with their communications. And so this was really massive communication, massive transmitters, lots and lots of power and nobody could figure out what in the world was going on.

It made no sense because certainly the signals as seen could do over the rise in radar work which you normally put in that same frequency band. But there were also apparently lots of characteristics which didn't fit what you would do if you were designing something with just over the rising radar at all be no need for such complexity. So there's been a lot of discussion on it and I guess the official realization was that calling it was to say it's just simply over the rising radars. Well, they built a lot of them. But if you look at it through the eyes of the scalar interferometry and I mentioned the two references and have cited them in various papers, there are other work along that line too.

If that approach is used in what seems to be what Tesla had done, if you use the Tesla approach to interpret it. Now one is dealing with scalar interferometry and dealing with something that can do some rather astounding potential weapon effects with the in Tesla interpretation. One of the things that would result from that line of weapons, assuming they are used as scalar interferometry weapons, one of the great things that would emerge from them would be to produce controlled energy at a distance. For example, great huge balls of controlled electromagnetic energy, or if you pulse it, great blasts of electromagnetic energy at a distance. I mentioned the business of biasing the transmitters where you can produce either heat like an explosion or you could produce a cold explosion, the sudden explosive withdrawal of energy from the distant area.

And in books cited incidents that are representative of what one would find if those incidents actually were occurring on that kind of scale. The incidents are there, they're real, they're documented, they're not just Tom Bearden. So there is a good solid set of admittedly circumstantial evidence that the woodpecker signals, because of all the phenomena that can be associated in the same time frame since they turned on these phenomena very strongly suggest that this set of weapons is not just over the rising radars at all, but are really Tesla weapons systems. And if they are, all the rest follows. They have one other frightening area.

If this thesis is true, that is almost mind boggling. There is a Soviet physicist, scientist named Koznashev. And Koznashev has produced a series of experiments in two Soviet military institutes before the fall there that showed that you could transmit any sort of disease form between cells, any sort of infectious disease, or you can radiate one sample with nuclear radiation, gamma radiation, for example, or deadly poison or infect them with viruses. You can transmit between cellular cultures into another cell, another sample from the same culture, the same disease, electromagnetically, although the organisms won't necessarily be there. That works in literature if you pursue it.

Koshnashev has several books out now that are available since the Russian system has loosened up a bit. That work has been replicated at the University of Marburg, for example. In Germany. It has been replicated University of Sydney and Australia. And it has been replicated by at least one researcher here in the United States.

He's trained to say if there are no force fields, there's no electromagnetics. He ignores the potential that's left. He just sweeps it away and throws it away from where we're coming from with the Tesla approach. That is the active part. That's the part that is being interfered within the bodies or whatever to cause whatever you wish to cause.

If we couple it with the cosnosiav stuff, we are saying that such scalar transmitters in interferometry within the US. Embassy could indeed have produced any sort of disease they wish. However, it would have very strange signatures. Let me explain the signatures and how such signatures actually came about. First of all, when Nixon went as vice president to Russia and this was first detected, he was going to visit some nuclear installations and they carried Geiger counters and it was detected on the Geiger counter.

It's an ionization device. It detects the ionization and discharge of its own gases. And anything that'll ionize its gas, it will detect. It doesn't have to be nuclear radiation. And so they thought at first that it was deadly nuclear radiation because all the counters went off.

Indeed it was not. They were irradiating the president with this stuff, with the Tesla stuff to see if we knew what was going on.

That's a beautiful intelligence probe. You pick out a high level target like the president or the embassy, you radiate and do some things that are obvious, not too bad, that are obvious so they can't be missed. And then you see what happens when the system goes bananas trying to figure out what's going on. And by their actions, there's no way to fake it. You either tell them you know what's going on by.

Your action or you show them you don't know what's going on there's no way to get out of it's 100% certain which very few things in intelligence are. However, if I go back to the embassy where many health changes and diseases and so for three ambassadors died of a leukemia like illness, eventually these diseases occurred only within the embassy in those areas where the force fields were absent and the potentials were there. And the Johns Hopkins researchers did a beautiful job. They were expert guys of establishing the force field electromagnetic pattern. And since not a single case occurred in that area that's by the normal electromagnetics then reached the conclusion that therefore could not possibly be the microwave radiation actually, that's a false conclusion.

If the radiation played no part whatsoever and you had that many changes occurred the ODS are extremely high that some of those would have occurred in the area where there were force fields and some didn't. Since that did not occur it is a 100% correlation to the Tesla area, to the area where the potentials existed and the force fields did not. And I'm sorry, they reached exactly the wrong conclusion because the model they applied failed them. These were able scientists using only the conventional model and the model actually showed that it was the other stuff but led them to conclude properly for their model that it couldn't possibly be the electromagnetics. That's just one instance.

So the woodpecker then would apply, be able to apply because of so many signals. The scalar stuff we might not even see with our normal detectors but yet it could do exactly the same thing, for example, in the United States alone. And what does that imply? If we are not too far out into left field here, if there's really a ground, as I've tried to describe here, if there really is a theoretical ground here for the use of those weapons in a Tesla mode, and the use of the Kosnashiev knowledge and experimental results in here, apparently confirmed by what happened in the US. Embassy then those radiators which are active to this day not in the conventional sense you got to have a different detector.

Those radiators could conceivably create within a mass population almost the instantaneous spread of mass diseases of all kind. They would be anomalous. You'd be dying, for example, a bubonic plague and you wouldn't have the organism. But it represents if that part is true it represents a biological weapon of incredible implications for population warfare. I hope to God I'm wrong.

I don't think I am. One of the questions for anybody who tries to take the Tesla view and tries to do it anywhere halfway scientifically, one of the questions that certainly comes out of all this other work on what kind of possible weapons could have been built and what possible uses and demonstrations have been made, the question emerges what about warfare in the future? Well, what I can do is give you my opinion and leave it up to each person to evaluate that as they see fit.

We have certain trends, however, that certainly are possible. We see with certainty other nations developing nuclear weapons shortly. Almost everybody that wants to have a nuclear weapon and is a nation of any little size at all is going to have one. I would characterize that by the fact that weapons of mass destruction have now passed out of chess playing hands. In other words, logical hands into some hands which are irrational.

And to me, that's a much more dangerous world. There is another suppose. The fear all analysts have is the suitcase delivery system. You simply slip in the weapon parts and assemble it say in New York City or Chicago or someplace. And perhaps the next time the US.

Decides to intervene somewhere in the Middle East or somewhere the terrorists then blow several of these weapons incredible damage to the United States. This would suggest an area where not only have the great nations been involved in strategic deterrence, if I might use that term, which is now falling out of fashion, but all the small nations, or a lot of them. Will be able to provide a very positive strategic deterrence to even great nations by the threat of nuclear warfare. Clandestine warfare, as I described. Or biological weapons, which are cheap and everybody can have and build.

It is certainly a much more dangerous weapon that has emerged. World that has emerged and the weapon spread now is just seeping out just like a torrent. There's no stopping it. In these kinds of weapons one doesn't know what will be the future in the slow leakage that seems to be going on in the Tesla weapons. Certainly, it simply adds to the power at the very best for us, the threats and at the worst, it adds an impossible threat.

So the world is facing a set of dangerous possibilities dangerous threats to us all, to everybody to every man, woman and child. Because the civilian population is no longer immune or even exempted from these kinds of things. We're facing a world of possibility of multiple nations, multiple kinds of irrational groups being able to apply enormous weapons of enormous implications to even the civilian population. Our military, for example is facing a situation where, with a lot of development in biological warfare if suddenly new agents that you have no knowledge of whatsoever are thrust upon you have no antidotes you have no effective methods of treatment and these are fairly rapidly acting agents. Let's say they kill in two days rapid infection.

I'm just taking an example. You couldn't possibly come up with anything to do anything with the normal stuff during that time. The only alternative will be the extended electromagnetic treatment because then you could treat it without identifying the agent and cure it before it even came out in illness in your troops. Otherwise, even your military forces face decimation by sudden unknown agents which they are unable to counter. So surprise attack becomes an ever more dangerous thing in a lot more dangerous hands.

The world is much more dangerous today for a much more positive application of, shall I say, Tesla's extension to electromagnetics that he was using though not technically describing so well something that's much more beneficial or can be to mankind humankind rather than destructive means one should focus on the imminent advent of practical over unity electromagnetic devices. These are devices which can be closed looped to run themselves and produce useful power in the load for one impact which is highly beneficial. It's obvious, the most casual observer that the use of such systems where the power to run it is actually extracted from the vacuum itself. If carefully used, there will be no damage to the biosphere and we will certainly eliminate an incredible amount gradually. It won't happen overnight but we will gradually eliminate an incredible amount of burning of fossil fuels.

There's still a need for all the fossil fuels only not as fuel. The chemical needs alone for medicines and materials and so forth to benefit mankind are enormous. But certainly we will stop all the exhausts and pollutants from those from the burning of those fuels from entering the atmosphere. It just won't be happening anymore to the extent it is now on any scale. It will allow us to take funds, for example, on something like into what I like to think could be a more sane world and a much more protective of the environment of our children and of our children's children.

Now, in all candor, I must add one danger. If unrestrictedly used when you produce excess energy of this type from the vacuum, right in the vacuum in a local area, if you produce a very large amount, particularly if you do it very suddenly in that region, you have a curvature of local spacetime, and there can be biological effects from that that we are presently not quite capable of fully explaining or knowing. There's going to have to be some careful incorporation of the devices so that we use care. We do not inflict any kind of damage on anybody or anything like that. So with reasonable scientific care we can prevent any such thing.

And we should do that. We should incorporate such systems into our normal utility transmissions across the lines. The lines are there. The maintenance of them is already there. The facilities are already there.

They're already connected to the homes. It would just be nice if gradually we didn't have to burn so many fossil fuels and gradually the power price could come down cheaper and cheaper. But meanwhile everybody stays working and everybody stays involved. But what we really wish to eliminate is, say, an older person in New York City cold in the winter, very limited income. Can't pay the utility bill very well.

So has to keep the power down, freezing, eating dog food. We must do better than that, and we can. And the Tesla technology will allow us to do better than that. So it must be done. To understand Tesla, you must understand one other remarkable ability that he had that none of his peers had then or now.

We can only do with great computing simulation centers. From the time he was an early child, tesla had the capability to visualize something so intensely and so vividly that he simply couldn't tell the difference between that and a real object until he was about twelve years old, and he finally found a way to distinguish the difference. But this unique ability that he had enabled him to visualize a system in all of its parts working together, turn it over and upside down and inside out and watch everything function on any level. That today we would do with a large cat cam system or we would do with a very large supercomputer in a very large simulation facility. So Tesla also was the world's first great simulating computer center.

Using his own brain, none of his cohorts or his colleagues or his peers had any such ability. Tesla would build a device a hundred times in his head, changing it all the time, until he got all the parts working perfectly in his simulation, and then he would build it on the bench. And most times it would work right away. He had already built it a hundred times. We do exactly that technique today in many fields of endeavor, with great effort, with great cost, big computing centers.

Tesla could do it in his head.

One final question often remains about Nikola Tesla. It's difficult to put oneself in a situation, to believe that he could possibly have done such great things, and they have passed completely away into either secrecy or being lost or just simply abandoned. So a puzzling question remains how on earth could this happen? Suppose it's true, how could it happen?

Actually, it's not too difficult to understand how, but it takes a bit of background and appreciation for the times. First of all, put yourself in Tesla's day when we're talking about installation on Long Island. It hasn't been very long since Custer's last stand.

We're talking about just prior to Marconi's transmission of signals across the Atlantic. We're talking about a time when only recently, in just the end of the 1880s and the early 1890s, has electromagnetics abandoned the quaternion theory and gone to the vector theory of Oliver Heavyside, largely, and with some contribution by Hertz and Gibbs. There are only at the time, prior to the turn of the century, possibly about 40 scientists in the world who really understand electromagnetics at the top level. There are more than that who are, we might say, followers. But the shapers there's only about no such thing as big government science.

There are no large government organizations funding science anywhere. A scientist was a relatively poor person. He wasn't impoverished, but he certainly had no income. Like a businessman. There was no place to get grants or to get funding for research.

All science is patronized. Somebody has to pay the freight. And many of the avenues we are familiar with today, most of them simply did not exist. The only way that a scientist or call him an inventor such as Tesla could in fact even dream of supporting himself, he had to, number one, discover the thing. He had to keep it very, very secret and patent it.

He had to keep it secret until his patent actually was issued up some money. A scientist at a university who received a $2,000 grant from an industrious was in great shape. Think of the economics of the time. An average person might make $500 a year when we speak of $150,000, an enormous sum of money in that time, but we're speaking of a time when there's still not many checks and balances on the great capitalists. Literally, they buy the politicians at will.

The control of financial power had little opposition in the courts or anything else. It was so bad at the time that there was a violent labor movement going on against the very same industrials who kept manipulating the stock market and causing it to change and causing inflation and terribly hurting everybody. Anarchy was even a serious threat because of the belief that all government was evil prevailing into the laboring class. An anarchist even assassinated the president. While Lincoln is working on long I mean, while Tesla is working on long island.

So one must appreciate the tenor of the times. Also, one must appreciate the communication industry. There were very few telephones.

The telegraph, which wasn't widespread, but the telegraph existed. That was the main route of communication in newspapers, books, to some extent. The journals were all pretty well controlled. Most of them by the scientific community was already very much jealous of Tesla. So you don't publish in the real scientific journals.

You have to publish in something like what Today would call Scientific American, like electrical experiment or something. Many of the publications were letter to the editor. So an inventor or a person trying to make a living in science as an independent person had a terrible job and a terrible task. There was a great secrecy clamp on him just because of the situation and tenor of the times. This accounted really to a large degree for Tesla's secrecy.

Most other inventors who had not yet become highly successful or whatever were also very secret or who still needed large funding. So secrets and secretiveness was the order of the day. Only when you put it in this background can you understand then how easy it is to suppress. It's not printed in the newspaper. His single exposition of receiving signals from outer space caused most of the news media to simply swing over and go against him.

The very news media who had simply made him a star, so to speak, before now couldn't get enough to get on him and continue to hound him and call him every name in the books. And so, from that single remark, a great drastic shift in the labeling of Nikola Tesla came about. Science itself is unforgiving. There is many histories of scientist persecution of other scientists with whom they disagreed. The system is very prone to either destroy, condemn, or bury any scientist who seriously disagrees with it to this day.

Well documented. We could make another documentary movie on just that. However, here was a preeminent example of a disagreement with the current scientific control. And the scientific control was adamant that he get wiped out of the books and he get labeled a lunatic. And that's exactly what happened.

He wound up with his name, Tesla, attached to a coil, and one unit of measurement named after his name. And as far as the scientist was concerned, that was enough. He didn't deserve anything else, most of them. So the scientific community rejected him. After Morgan turned his back, the financial community rejected him.

Here was a loner, then again, absolute loner. What was he to do? Exactly what he did. Retire to his hotel room and feed the pigeons and think grand dreams live on a small pittance which kept life and them together from his native Yugoslavia. And once a year have a press conference where he spoke of all the grand things that he thought of and he wished to have happened, but at least overtly, as far as we know, overtly.

Never again was Nikola Tesla to ever have a chance to attempt any of the great things that always surge through his restless mind, I guess, in summary of all of this, what does Tesla represent to the future? Particularly benevolently? Let's forget the weapons. What can come from Tesla's work that's been yet unrealized, that can benefit humankind everybody on the face of this Earth? There are some very positive benefits that loom.

The greatest thing that Nikola Tesla ever did was to continue to point out that the present electromagnetics model is seriously flawed and that electromagnetics is much more unlimited. Think for a moment of the service that the limited electromagnetics we have has been put to. Think of all the electronics, the communication industry, the power systems. It's changed the life of every person on the face of the Earth. Consider for just a moment what an extension to what you can do can add to the benefit of everybody everywhere for all time.

And I think when one ponders and considers that implication, then the full importance and the full implication of Nikola Tesla yet to be realized will indeed be realized.

What a phenomenal, absolutely phenomenal video from Thomas Bearden explaining Nikola Tesla. I see a lot of parallels between what I discovered in regards to weather modification, the electromagnetic radiation that is, radio waves and other means ionization and what Tesla discovered. Only the difference is I went public with it. I didn't keep it secret as he talked about in Tesla's work, and how they had to keep it secret because other people would basically rip them off and then either suppress it or try to sell it, et cetera. And that was the name of the game up until pretty much currently, I would say even in the beyond, most likely ran into this a lot.

Now, again, I'm not seeking patents and trying to get financing or anything. I took my discoveries to the world in regards to weather modification, electromagnetic radiation wise, and that's now been proved. It's now a drop down choice on the Noa weather modification site that they put up last year. In 2021, NOAA put up a new weather modification site, and number eight on the list of must be reported is using lasers and other forms of electromagnetic radiation. But there it is.

After twelve years, this is what I found. I had to find this myself last week on the Noa site, found it myself. So it's kind of a different world we're living in now where you can do your own research publicly, and you don't need to get that financing. You can do it on your own with crowdsource funding your own viewers and people who support you. That's the difference.

So I'm going to be uploading this video to YouTube, and I do want to point something out about this video. I tried to upload it to YouTube already, since it was sent to me directly by Thomas Bearden at the directive of their company after he passed away. That the information that was sent to me here. This video I tried to upload and YouTube automatically blocked it. First time in twelve years of uploading videos that I ever get this message saying that this video has already been uploaded before and removed.

Removed. They removed that video as violation of community service guidelines because they said there is no such thing as electromagnetic radiation modification of anything, let alone the weather, as he's saying in this video and many other things. And now that's it's. Again, it's a drop down choice from the NOAA weather modification site that has to be reported by private companies who are doing it currently. If they do it, private companies and the federal government does not have to report to Noa, so they're the ones running the radar.

So of course we're not going to see that or anything else like that. But there it is. So let's go upload this to YouTube. Everybody deserves to see it. And I would encourage you, if you didn't understand what he's talking about, maybe watch it a few times.

Actually, this is the second time, third time now I actually have watched it, but man, you probably are going to need to watch it multiple times to really get your head around some of the things he's talking about, like the projection of sicknesses and the projection of cures. And the French in the 1960s with their device to remove certain kinds of growths on your body, in your body. We know what that word starts with CN. You can't say it if you talk about a cure for it. So that's suppression for you, too.

And how the Soviets at the time and the former Soviet Union were far ahead of us in this. And he mentioned three other countries, but doesn't mention their names, says they're not exactly friendly to the United States, but they're not exactly enemies. And that would have been China, most likely the UK, and most likely Iran. Just saying there's a reason we haven't invaded Iran. And the directed energy weapons do mean everything from lasers to high power microwaves, which we call HPM.

The Directed Energy Warfare office. That the US. Navy has the dew d wo they have a directed energy warfare office. The Department of Defense came out and confirmed a video I put out, and they responded to a video I put out. I asked my viewers to send the video to the Department of Defense, and that was a few years ago, a couple of years back, when I captured live on weather satellite in ultraviolet, infrared coming out of space, beaming down to California into the fires and causing the fires.

And I got that live just by chance when we were looking at the weather, and I recorded it live and told my viewers to send it to the Department of Defense. A few days later, the Department of Defense responded with a public press conference announcing that our enemies, China and Russia, have satellites, killer satellites in spaces, they said. And I've got this video on my channel. You can go watch it. Department of Defense confirms Dew directed energy weapon.

And they said it can fire at a distance and killer satellites in space. And that was the response to my video four days earlier, five days earlier, where I literally captured it coming down from space, causing fires at a distance in California. Then they shot it down, apparently, which is another separate story entirely of how they took it down, how they took down the enemy satellite, or maybe it was a friendly satellite that was doing it to us. No way to know whose satellite it was. Maybe they do.

But whatever it was, it was up in space and it was beaming down and causing fires in California. We caught that live, and they responded unequivocally, explaining how our enemies have these in space and if they've got them, we've got them. Everybody's got them. Most likely all the big superpowers most likely have them. Even some private companies probably have them at this point, but that's another story to talk about, too.

This video is done are uploading to YouTube now.

The bible for bringing cutting-edge products to larger markets—now revised and updated with new insights into the realities of high-tech marketing In Crossing the Chasm, Geoffrey A. Moore shows that in the Technology Adoption Life Cycle—which begins with innovators and moves to early adopters, early majority, late majority, and laggards—there is a vast chasm between the early adopters and the early majority. While early adopters are willing to sacrifice for the advantage of being first, the early majority waits until they know that the technology actually offers improvements in productivity. The challenge for innovators and marketers is to narrow this chasm and ultimately accelerate adoption across every segment. This third edition brings Moore's classic work up to date with dozens of new examples of successes and failures, new strategies for marketing in the digital world, and Moore's most current insights and findings. He also includes two new appendices, the first connecting the ideas in Crossing the Chasm to work subsequently published in his Inside the Tornado, and the second presenting his recent groundbreaking work for technology adoption models for high-tech consumer markets.

Endless terror. Refugee waves. An unfixable global economy. Surprising election results. New billion-dollar fortunes. Miracle medical advances. What if they were all connected? What if you could understand why? The Seventh Sense is the story of what all of today's successful figures see and feel: the forces that are invisible to most of us but explain everything from explosive technological change to uneasy political ripples. The secret to power now is understanding our new age of networks. Not merely the Internet, but also webs of trade, finance, and even DNA. Based on his years of advising generals, CEOs, and politicians, Ramo takes us into the opaque heart of our world's rapidly connected systems and teaches us what the losers are not yet seeing -- and what the victors of this age already know.

This lushly illustrated history of popular entertainment takes a long-zoom approach, contending that the pursuit of novelty and wonder is a powerful driver of world-shaping technological change. Steven Johnson argues that, throughout history, the cutting edge of innovation lies wherever people are working the hardest to keep themselves and others amused. Johnson’s storytelling is just as delightful as the inventions he describes, full of surprising stops along the journey from simple concepts to complex modern systems. He introduces us to the colorful innovators of leisure: the explorers, proprietors, showmen, and artists who changed the trajectory of history with their luxurious wares, exotic meals, taverns, gambling tables, and magic shows. In Wonderland, Johnson compellingly argues that observers of technological and social trends should be looking for clues in novel amusements. You’ll find the future wherever people are having the most fun.

Nothing “goes viral.” If you think a popular movie, song, or app came out of nowhere to become a word-of-mouth success in today’s crowded media environment, you’re missing the real story. Each blockbuster has a secret history—of power, influence, dark broadcasters, and passionate cults that turn some new products into cultural phenomena. Even the most brilliant ideas wither in obscurity if they fail to connect with the right network, and the consumers that matter most aren't the early adopters, but rather their friends, followers, and imitators -- the audience of your audience. In his groundbreaking investigation, Atlantic senior editor Derek Thompson uncovers the hidden psychology of why we like what we like and reveals the economics of cultural markets that invisibly shape our lives. Shattering the sentimental myths of hit-making that dominate pop culture and business, Thompson shows quality is insufficient for success, nobody has "good taste," and some of the most popular products in history were one bad break away from utter failure. It may be a new world, but there are some enduring truths to what audiences and consumers want. People love a familiar surprise: a product that is bold, yet sneakily recognizable. Every business, every artist, every person looking to promote themselves and their work wants to know what makes some works so successful while others disappear. Hit Makers is a magical mystery tour through the last century of pop culture blockbusters and the most valuable currency of the twenty-first century—people’s attention. From the dawn of impressionist art to the future of Facebook, from small Etsy designers to the origin of Star Wars, Derek Thompson leaves no pet rock unturned to tell the fascinating story of how culture happens and why things become popular. In Hit Makers, Derek Thompson investigates: · The secret link between ESPN's sticky programming and the The Weeknd's catchy choruses · Why Facebook is today’s most important newspaper · How advertising critics predicted Donald Trump · The 5th grader who accidentally launched "Rock Around the Clock," the biggest hit in rock and roll history · How Barack Obama and his speechwriters think of themselves as songwriters · How Disney conquered the world—but the future of hits belongs to savvy amateurs and individuals · The French collector who accidentally created the Impressionist canon · Quantitative evidence that the biggest music hits aren’t always the best · Why almost all Hollywood blockbusters are sequels, reboots, and adaptations · Why one year--1991--is responsible for the way pop music sounds today · Why another year --1932--created the business model of film · How data scientists proved that “going viral” is a myth · How 19th century immigration patterns explain the most heard song in the Western Hemisphere

Ours is often called an information economy, but at a moment when access to information is virtually unlimited, our attention has become the ultimate commodity. In nearly every moment of our waking lives, we face a barrage of efforts to harvest our attention. This condition is not simply the byproduct of recent technological innovations but the result of more than a century's growth and expansion in the industries that feed on human attention. Wu’s narrative begins in the nineteenth century, when Benjamin Day discovered he could get rich selling newspapers for a penny. Since then, every new medium—from radio to television to Internet companies such as Google and Facebook—has attained commercial viability and immense riches by turning itself into an advertising platform. Since the early days, the basic business model of “attention merchants” has never changed: free diversion in exchange for a moment of your time, sold in turn to the highest-bidding advertiser. Full of lively, unexpected storytelling and piercing insight, The Attention Merchants lays bare the true nature of a ubiquitous reality we can no longer afford to accept at face value.

Some people think that in today’s hyper-competitive world, it’s the tough, take-no-prisoners type who comes out on top. But in reality, argues New York Times bestselling author Dave Kerpen, it’s actually those with the best people skills who win the day. Those who build the right relationships. Those who truly understand and connect with their colleagues, their customers, their partners. Those who can teach, lead, and inspire. In a world where we are constantly connected, and social media has become the primary way we communicate, the key to getting ahead is being the person others like, respect, and trust. Because no matter who you are or what profession you're in, success is contingent less on what you can do for yourself, but on what other people are willing to do for you. Here, through 53 bite-sized, easy-to-execute, and often counterintuitive tips, you’ll learn to master the 11 People Skills that will get you more of what you want at work, at home, and in life. For example, you’ll learn: · The single most important question you can ever ask to win attention in a meeting · The one simple key to networking that nobody talks about · How to remain top of mind for thousands of people, everyday · Why it usually pays to be the one to give the bad news · How to blow off the right people · And why, when in doubt, buy him a Bonsai A book best described as “How to Win Friends and Influence People for today’s world,” The Art of People shows how to charm and win over anyone to be more successful at work and outside of it.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER If you want to build a better future, you must believe in secrets. The great secret of our time is that there are still uncharted frontiers to explore and new inventions to create. In Zero to One, legendary entrepreneur and investor Peter Thiel shows how we can find singular ways to create those new things. Thiel begins with the contrarian premise that we live in an age of technological stagnation, even if we’re too distracted by shiny mobile devices to notice. Information technology has improved rapidly, but there is no reason why progress should be limited to computers or Silicon Valley. Progress can be achieved in any industry or area of business. It comes from the most important skill that every leader must master: learning to think for yourself. Doing what someone else already knows how to do takes the world from 1 to n, adding more of something familiar. But when you do something new, you go from 0 to 1. The next Bill Gates will not build an operating system. The next Larry Page or Sergey Brin won’t make a search engine. Tomorrow’s champions will not win by competing ruthlessly in today’s marketplace. They will escape competition altogether, because their businesses will be unique. Zero to One presents at once an optimistic view of the future of progress in America and a new way of thinking about innovation: it starts by learning to ask the questions that lead you to find value in unexpected places.

Why should I do business with you… and not your competitor? Whether you are a retailer, manufacturer, distributor, or service provider – if you cannot answer this question, you are surely losing customers, clients and market share. This eye-opening book reveals how identifying your competitive advantages (and trumpeting them to the marketplace) is the most surefire way to close deals, retain clients, and stay miles ahead of the competition. The five fatal flaws of most companies: • They don’t have a competitive advantage but think they do • They have a competitive advantage but don’t know what it is—so they lower prices instead • They know what their competitive advantage is but neglect to tell clients about it • They mistake “strengths” for competitive advantages • They don’t concentrate on competitive advantages when making strategic and operational decisions The good news is that you can overcome these costly mistakes – by identifying your competitive advantages and creating new ones. Consultant, public speaker, and competitive advantage expert Jaynie Smith will show you how scores of small and large companies substantially increased their sales by focusing on their competitive advantages. When advising a CEO frustrated by his salespeople’s inability to close deals, Smith discovered that his company stayed on schedule 95 percent of the time – an achievement no one else in his industry could claim. By touting this and other competitive advantages to customers, closing rates increased by 30 percent—and so did company revenues. Jack Welch has said, “If you don’t have a competitive advantage, don’t compete.” This straight-to-the-point book is filled with insightful stories and specific steps on how to pinpoint your competitive advantages, develop new ones, and get the message out about them.

The number one New York Times best seller that examines how people can champion new ideas in their careers and everyday life - and how leaders can fight groupthink, from the author of Think Again and co-author of Option B. With Give and Take, Adam Grant not only introduced a landmark new paradigm for success but also established himself as one of his generation’s most compelling and provocative thought leaders. In Originals he again addresses the challenge of improving the world, but now from the perspective of becoming original: choosing to champion novel ideas and values that go against the grain, battle conformity, and buck outdated traditions. How can we originate new ideas, policies, and practices without risking it all? Using surprising studies and stories spanning business, politics, sports, and entertainment, Grant explores how to recognize a good idea, speak up without getting silenced, build a coalition of allies, choose the right time to act, and manage fear and doubt; how parents and teachers can nurture originality in children; and how leaders can build cultures that welcome dissent. Learn from an entrepreneur who pitches his start-ups by highlighting the reasons not to invest, a woman at Apple who challenged Steve Jobs from three levels below, an analyst who overturned the rule of secrecy at the CIA, a billionaire financial wizard who fires employees for failing to criticize him, and a TV executive who didn’t even work in comedy but saved Seinfeld from the cutting-room floor. The payoff is a set of groundbreaking insights about rejecting conformity and improving the status quo.

In The $100 Startup, Chris Guillebeau tells you how to lead of life of adventure, meaning and purpose - and earn a good living. Still in his early 30s, Chris is on the verge of completing a tour of every country on earth - he's already visited more than 175 nations - and yet he’s never held a "real job" or earned a regular paycheck. Rather, he has a special genius for turning ideas into income, and he uses what he earns both to support his life of adventure and to give back. There are many others like Chris - those who've found ways to opt out of traditional employment and create the time and income to pursue what they find meaningful. Sometimes, achieving that perfect blend of passion and income doesn't depend on shelving what you currently do. You can start small with your venture, committing little time or money, and wait to take the real plunge when you're sure it's successful. In preparing to write this book, Chris identified 1,500 individuals who have built businesses earning $50,000 or more from a modest investment (in many cases, $100 or less), and from that group he’s chosen to focus on the 50 most intriguing case studies. In nearly all cases, people with no special skills discovered aspects of their personal passions that could be monetized, and were able to restructure their lives in ways that gave them greater freedom and fulfillment. Here, finally, distilled into one easy-to-use guide, are the most valuable lessons from those who’ve learned how to turn what they do into a gateway to self-fulfillment. It’s all about finding the intersection between your "expertise" - even if you don’t consider it such - and what other people will pay for. You don’t need an MBA, a business plan or even employees. All you need is a product or service that springs from what you love to do anyway, people willing to pay, and a way to get paid. Not content to talk in generalities, Chris tells you exactly how many dollars his group of unexpected entrepreneurs required to get their projects up and running; what these individuals did in the first weeks and months to generate significant cash; some of the key mistakes they made along the way, and the crucial insights that made the business stick. Among Chris’s key principles: if you’re good at one thing, you’re probably good at something else; never teach a man to fish - sell him the fish instead; and in the battle between planning and action, action wins. In ancient times, people who were dissatisfied with their lives dreamed of finding magic lamps, buried treasure, or streets paved with gold. Today, we know that it’s up to us to change our lives. And the best part is, if we change our own life, we can help others change theirs. This remarkable book will start you on your way.

The answer is simple: come up with 10 ideas a day. It doesn't matter if they are good or bad, the key is to exercise your "idea muscle", to keep it toned, and in great shape. People say ideas are cheap and execution is everything but that is NOT true. Execution is a consequence, a subset of good, brilliant idea. And good ideas require daily work. Ideas may be easy if we are only coming up with one or two but if you open this book to any of the pages and try to produce more than three, you will feel a burn, scratch your head, and you will be sweating, and working hard. There is a turning point when you reach idea number six for the day, you still have four to go, and your mind muscle is getting a workout. By the time you list those last ideas to make it to 10 you will see for yourself what "sweating the idea muscle" means. As you practice the daily idea generation you become an idea machine. When we become idea machines we are flooded with lots of bad ideas but also with some that are very good. This happens by the sheer force of the number, because we are coming up with 3,650 ideas per year (at 10 a day). When you are inspired by an extraordinary idea, all of your thoughts break their chains, you go beyond limitations and your capacity to act expands in every direction. Forces and abilities you did not know you had come to the surface, and you realize you are capable of doing great things. As you practice with the suggested prompts in this book your ideas will get better, you will be a source of great insight for others, people will find you magnetic, and they will want to hang out with you because you have so much to offer. When you practice every day your life will transform, in no more than 180 days, because it has no other evolutionary choice. Life changes for the better when we become the source of positive, insightful, and helpful ideas. Don't believe a word I say. Instead, challenge yourself.

That power is resilience. In The Resilience Breakthrough, Moore delivers a practical primer on how you can become more resilient in a world of instability and narrowing opportunity, whether you're facing financial troubles, health setbacks, challenges on the job, or any other problem. We can each have our own resilience breakthrough, Moore argues, and can each learn how to use adverse circumstances as potent fuel for overcoming life's hardships. As he shares engaging real-life stories and brutally honest analyses of his own experiences, Moore equips you with 27 resilience-building tools that you can start using today - in your personal life or in your organization.

What if someone told you that your behavior was controlled by a powerful, invisible force? Most of us would be skeptical of such a claim--but it's largely true. Our brains are constantly transmitting and receiving signals of which we are unaware. Studies show that these constant inputs drive the great majority of our decisions about what to do next--and we become conscious of the decisions only after we start acting on them. Many may find that disturbing. But the implications for leadership are profound. In this provocative yet practical book, renowned speaking coach and communication expert Nick Morgan highlights recent research that shows how humans are programmed to respond to the nonverbal cues of others--subtle gestures, sounds, and signals--that elicit emotion. He then provides a clear, useful framework of seven "power cues" that will be essential for any leader in business, the public sector, or almost any context. You'll learn crucial skills, from measuring nonverbal signs of confidence, to the art and practice of gestures and vocal tones, to figuring out what your gut is really telling you. This concise and engaging guide will help leaders and aspiring leaders of all stripes to connect powerfully, communicate more effectively, and command influence.

New York Times bestselling author and social media expert Gary Vaynerchuk shares hard-won advice on how to connect with customers and beat the competition. A mash-up of the best elements of Crush It! and The Thank You Economy with a fresh spin, Jab, Jab, Jab, Right Hook is a blueprint to social media marketing strategies that really works. When managers and marketers outline their social media strategies, they plan for the "right hook"—their next sale or campaign that's going to knock out the competition. Even companies committed to jabbing—patiently engaging with customers to build the relationships crucial to successful social media campaigns—want to land the punch that will take down their opponent or their customer's resistance in one blow. Right hooks convert traffic to sales and easily show results. Except when they don't. Thanks to massive change and proliferation in social media platforms, the winning combination of jabs and right hooks is different now. Vaynerchuk shows that while communication is still key, context matters more than ever. It's not just about developing high-quality content, but developing high-quality content perfectly adapted to specific social media platforms and mobile devices—content tailor-made for Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter and Tumblr.

From the best-selling author of The Black Swan and one of the foremost thinkers of our time, Nassim Nicholas Taleb, a book on how some things actually benefit from disorder. In The Black Swan Taleb outlined a problem, and in Antifragile he offers a definitive solution: how to gain from disorder and chaos while being protected from fragilities and adverse events. For what Taleb calls the "antifragile" is actually beyond the robust, because it benefits from shocks, uncertainty, and stressors, just as human bones get stronger when subjected to stress and tension. The antifragile needs disorder in order to survive and flourish. Taleb stands uncertainty on its head, making it desirable, even necessary, and proposes that things be built in an antifragile manner. The antifragile is immune to prediction errors. Why is the city-state better than the nation-state, why is debt bad for you, and why is everything that is both modern and complicated bound to fail? The audiobook spans innovation by trial and error, health, biology, medicine, life decisions, politics, foreign policy, urban planning, war, personal finance, and economic systems. And throughout, in addition to the street wisdom of Fat Tony of Brooklyn, the voices and recipes of ancient wisdom, from Roman, Greek, Semitic, and medieval sources, are heard loud and clear. Extremely ambitious and multidisciplinary, Antifragile provides a blueprint for how to behave - and thrive - in a world we don't understand, and which is too uncertain for us to even try to understand and predict. Erudite and witty, Taleb’s message is revolutionary: What is not antifragile will surely perish.

The Cluetrain Manifesto began as a Web site in 1999 when the authors, who have worked variously at IBM, Sun Microsystems, the Linux Journal, and NPR, posted 95 theses about the new reality of the networked marketplace. Ten years after its original publication, their message remains more relevant than ever. For example, thesis no. 2: “Markets consist of human beings, not demographic sectors”; thesis no. 20: “Companies need to realize their markets are often laughing. At them.” The book enlarges on these themes through dozens of stories and observations about business in America and how the Internet will continue to change it all. With a new introduction and chapters by the authors, and commentary by Jake McKee, JP Rangaswami, and Dan Gillmor, this book is essential reading for anybody interested in the Internet and e-commerce, and is especially vital for businesses navigating the topography of the wired marketplace.

From the founders of the trailblazing software company 37signals, here is a different kind of business book one that explores a new reality. Today, anyone can be in business. Tools that used to be out of reach are now easily accessible. Technology that cost thousands is now just a few bucks or even free. Stuff that was impossible just a few years ago is now simple.That means anyone can start a business. And you can do it without working miserable 80-hour weeks or depleting your life savings. You can start it on the side while your day job provides all the cash flow you need. Forget about business plans, meetings, office space - you don't need them. With its straightforward language and easy-is-better approach, Rework is the perfect playbook for anyone who's ever dreamed of doing it on their own. Hardcore entrepreneurs, small-business owners, people stuck in day jobs who want to get out, and artists who don't want to starve anymore will all find valuable inspiration and guidance in these pages. It's time to rework work.


Tesla's main source of inspiration.
Roger Joseph Boscovich, a physicist, astronomer, mathematician, philosopher, diplomat, poet, theologian, Jesuit priest, and polymath, published the first edition of his famous work, Philosophiae Naturalis Theoria Redacta Ad Unicam Legem Virium In Natura Existentium (Theory Of Natural Philosophy Derived To The Single Law Of Forces Which Exist In Nature), in Vienna, in 1758, containing his atomic theory and his theory of forces. A second edition was published in 1763 in Venice

Bill Clinton's Georgetown mentor's history of the Conspiracy since the Boer War in South Africa.
TRAGEDY AND HOPE shows the years 1895-1950 as a period of transition from the world dominated by Europe in the nineteenth century to the world of three blocs in the twentieth century. With clarity, perspective, and cumulative impact, Professor Quigley examines the nature of that transition through two world wars and a worldwide economic depression. As an interpretative historian, he tries to show each event in the full complexity of its historical context. The result is a unique work, notable in several ways. It gives a picture of the world in terms of the influence of different cultures and outlooks upon each other; it shows, more completely than in any similar work, the influence of science and technology on human life; and it explains, with unprecedented clarity, how the intricate financial and commercial patterns of the West prior to 1914 influenced the development of today’s world.

This is the July, 2016 ALTA (Asymmetric Linguistic Trends Analysis) Report. Also known as 'the Web Bot' report, this series is brought to you by halfpasthuman.com.

Time is considered as an independent entity which cannot be reduced to the concept of matter, space or field. The point of discussion is the "time flow" conception of N A Kozyrev (1908-1983), an outstanding Russian astronomer and natural scientist. In addition to a review of the experimental studies of "the active properties of time", by both Kozyrev and modern scientists, the reader will find different interpretations of Kozyrev's views and some developments of his ideas in the fields of geophysics, astrophysics, general relativity and theoretical mechanics.

How UFO Time Engines work - Clif High

The webpage discusses the workings of UFO time engines according to N.A. Kozyrev's experiments. The LL1 engine is described as a hollow metal sphere with a pool of mercury metal inside. When activated by electrical energy, it creates a uni-polar magnetic field causing the mercury to spin at a high rate and induce "time stuff" to accumulate on its surface. The accrued time stuff is siphoned down magnetically to the radiating antennae on the bottom of the vessel, providing self-sustaining power and allowing for time travel. The environment inside UFOs is likely volatile and not suitable for humans.

The Body Electric tells the fascinating story of our bioelectric selves. Robert O. Becker, a pioneer in the filed of regeneration and its relationship to electrical currents in living things, challenges the established mechanistic understanding of the body. He found clues to the healing process in the long-discarded theory that electricity is vital to life. But as exciting as Becker's discoveries are, pointing to the day when human limbs, spinal cords, and organs may be regenerated after they have been damaged, equally fascinating is the story of Becker's struggle to do such original work. The Body Electric explores new pathways in our understanding of evolution, acupuncture, psychic phenomena, and healing.

Unique, controversial, and frequently cited, this survey offers highly detailed accounts concerning the development of ideas and theories about the nature of electricity and space (aether). Readily accessible to general readers as well as high school students, teachers, and undergraduates, it includes much information unavailable elsewhere. This single-volume edition comprises both The Classical Theories and The Modern Theories, which were originally published separately. The first volume covers the theories of classical physics from the age of the Greek philosophers to the late 19th century. The second volume chronicles discoveries that led to the advances of modern physics, focusing on special relativity, quantum theories, general relativity, matrix mechanics, and wave mechanics. Noted historian of science I. Bernard Cohen, who reviewed these books for Scientific American, observed, "I know of no other history of electricity which is as sound as Whittaker's. All those who have found stimulation from his works will read this informative and accurate history with interest and profit."

The third edition of the defining text for the graduate-level course in Electricity and Magnetism has finally arrived! It has been 37 years since the first edition and 24 since the second. The new edition addresses the changes in emphasis and applications that have occurred in the field, without any significant increase in length.

Objects are a ubiquitous presence and few of us stop and think what they mean in our lives. This is the job of philosophers and this is what Jean Baudrillard does in his book. This is required reading for followers of Baudrillard, and he is perhaps the most assessable to the General Reader. Baudrillard is most associated with Post Modernism, and this early book sets the stage for that journey to the post modern world.
We are all surrounded by objects, but how many times have we thought about what those objects represent. If we took the time to think about the symbolism, we could arrive at easy solutions. We have been so accustomed to advertising the automobile representing freedom is an easy conclusion. But what about furniture? What about chairs? What about the arrangement of furniture? Watches? Collecting objects? Baudrillard literally opens up a new world and creates the universe of objects.
It is not that the critique of a society or objects has not been done before, but Baudrillard’s approach is new. Baudrillard examines objects as signs with a smattering of Post-Marxist thought. In his analysis of objects as signs, he ushers in the Post-Modern age and world for which he would be known. Heady stuff to be sure, but is presented by Baudrillard in a readily accessible manner. He articulates his thesis in a straightforward manner, avoiding the hyper-technical terminology he used in his later writings.

Moving away from the Marxist/Freudian approaches that had concerned him earlier, Baudrillard developed in this book a theory of contemporary culture that relies on displacing economic notions of cultural production with notions of cultural expenditure.

The book begins with Sidis's discovery of the first law of physical laws: "Among the physical laws it is a general characteristic that there is reversibility in time; that is, should the whole universe trace back the various positions that bodies in it have passed through in a given interval of time, but in the reverse order to that in which these positions actually occurred, then the universe, in this imaginary case, would still obey the same laws." Recent discoveries of dark matter are predicted by him in this book, and he goes on to show that the "Big Bang" is wrong. Sidis (SIGH-dis) shows that it is far more likely the universe is eternal

In this book you will encounter rare information regarding your true identity - the conscious self in the body - and how you may break the hypnotic spell your senses and thinking have cast about you since childhood.

Do we see the world as it truly is? In The Case Against Reality, pioneering cognitive scientist Donald Hoffman says no? we see what we need in order to survive. Our visual perceptions are not a window onto reality, Hoffman shows us, but instead are interfaces constructed by natural selection. The objects we see around us are not unlike the file icons on our computer desktops: while shaped like a small folder on our screens, the files themselves are made of a series of ones and zeros - too complex for most of us to understand. In a similar way, Hoffman argues, evolution has shaped our perceptions into simplistic illusions to help us navigate the world around us. Yet now these illusions can be manipulated by advertising and design.
Drawing on thirty years of Hoffman's own influential research, as well as evolutionary biology, game theory, neuroscience, and philosophy, The Case Against Reality makes the mind-bending yet utterly convincing case that the world is nothing like what we see through our eyes.

At the height of the Cold War, JFK risked committing the greatest crime in human history: starting a nuclear war. Horrified by the specter of nuclear annihilation, Kennedy gradually turned away from his long-held Cold Warrior beliefs and toward a policy of lasting peace. But to the military and intelligence agencies in the United States, who were committed to winning the Cold War at any cost, Kennedy’s change of heart was a direct threat to their power and influence. Once these dark “Unspeakable” forces recognized that Kennedy’s interests were in direct opposition to their own, they tagged him as a dangerous traitor, plotted his assassination, and orchestrated the subsequent cover-up.

2020 saw a spike in deaths in America, smaller than you might imagine during a pandemic, some of which could be attributed to COVID and to initial treatment strategies that were not effective. But then, in 2021, the stats people expected went off the rails. The CEO of the OneAmerica insurance company publicly disclosed that during the third and fourth quarters of 2021, death in people of working age (18–64) was 40 percent higher than it was before the pandemic. Significantly, the majority of the deaths were not attributed to COVID. A 40 percent increase in deaths is literally earth-shaking. Even a 10 percent increase in excess deaths would have been a 1-in-200-year event. But this was 40 percent. And therein lies a story—a story that starts with obvious questions: - What has caused this historic spike in deaths among younger people? - What has caused the shift from old people, who are expected to die, to younger people, who are expected to keep living?

The Tavistock Institute, in Sussex, England, describes itself as a nonprofit charity that applies social science to contemporary issues and problems. But this book posits that it is the world’s center for mass brainwashing and social engineering activities. It grew from a somewhat crude beginning at Wellington House into a sophisticated organization that was to shape the destiny of the entire planet, and in the process, change the paradigm of modern society. In this eye-opening work, both the Tavistock network and the methods of brainwashing and psychological warfare are uncovered.

A seminal and controversial figure in the history of political thought and public relations, Edward Bernays (1891–1995), pioneered the scientific technique of shaping and manipulating public opinion, which he famously dubbed “engineering of consent.” During World War I, he was an integral part of the U.S. Committee on Public Information (CPI), a powerful propaganda apparatus that was mobilized to package, advertise and sell the war to the American people as one that would “Make the World Safe for Democracy.” The CPI would become the blueprint in which marketing strategies for future wars would be based upon.
Bernays applied the techniques he had learned in the CPI and, incorporating some of the ideas of Walter Lipmann, as well as his uncle, Sigmund Freud, became an outspoken proponent of propaganda as a tool for democratic and corporate manipulation of the population. His 1928 bombshell Propaganda lays out his eerily prescient vision for using propaganda to regiment the collective mind in a variety of areas, including government, politics, art, science and education. To read this book today is to frightfully comprehend what our contemporary institutions of government and business have become in regards to organized manipulation of the masses.

Undressing the Bible: in Hebrew, the Old Testament speaks for itself, explicitly and transparently. It tells of mysterious beings, special and powerful ones, that appeared on Earth.
Aliens?
Former earthlings?
Superior civilizations, that have always been present on our planet?
Creators, manipulators, geneticists. Aviators, warriors, despotic rulers. And scientists, possessing very advanced knowledge, special weapons and science-fiction-like technologies.
Once naked, the Bible is very different from how it has always been told to us: it does not contain any spiritual, omnipotent and omniscient God, no eternity. No apples and no creeping, tempting, serpents. No winged angels. Not even the Red Sea: the people of the Exodus just wade through a simple reed bed.
Writer and journalist Giorgio Cattaneo sits down with Italy's most renowned biblical translator for his first long interview about his life's work for the English audience. A decade long official Bible translator for the Church and lifelong researcher of ancient myths and tales, Mauro Bilglino is a unicum in his field of expertise and research. A fine connoisseur of dead languages, from ancient Greek to Hebrew and medieval Latin, he focused his attention and efforts on the accurate translating of the bible.
The encounter with Mauro Biglino and his work - the journalist writes - is profoundly healthy, stimulating and inevitably destabilizing: it forces us to reconsider the solidity of the awareness that nourishes many of our common beliefs. And it is a testament to the courage that is needed, today more than ever, to claim the full dignity of free research.

Most people have heard of Jesus Christ, considered the Messiah by Christians, and who lived 2000 years ago. But very few have ever heard of Sabbatai Zevi, who declared himself the Messiah in 1666. By proclaiming redemption was available through acts of sin, he amassed a following of over one million passionate believers, about half the world's Jewish population during the 17th century.Although many Rabbis at the time considered him a heretic, his fame extended far and wide. Sabbatai's adherents planned to abolish many ritualistic observances, because, according to the Talmud, holy obligations would no longer apply in the Messianic time. Fasting days became days of feasting and rejoicing. Sabbateans encouraged and practiced sexual promiscuity, adultery, incest and religious orgies.After Sabbati Zevi's death in 1676, his Kabbalist successor, Jacob Frank, expanded upon and continued his occult philosophy. Frankism, a religious movement of the 18th and 19th centuries, centered on his leadership, and his claim to be the reincarnation of the Messiah Sabbatai Zevi. He, like Zevi, would perform "strange acts" that violated traditional religious taboos, such as eating fats forbidden by Jewish dietary laws, ritual sacrifice, and promoting orgies and sexual immorality. He often slept with his followers, as well as his own daughter, while preaching a doctrine that the best way to imitate God was to cross every boundary, transgress every taboo, and mix the sacred with the profane. Hebrew University of Jerusalem Professor Gershom Scholem called Jacob Frank, "one of the most frightening phenomena in the whole of Jewish history".Jacob Frank would eventually enter into an alliance formed by Adam Weishaupt and Meyer Amshel Rothschild called the Order of the Illuminati. The objectives of this organization was to undermine the world's religions and power structures, in an effort to usher in a utopian era of global communism, which they would covertly rule by their hidden hand: the New World Order. Using secret societies, such as the Freemasons, their agenda has played itself out over the centuries, staying true to the script. The Illuminati handle opposition by a near total control of the world's media, academic opinion leaders, politicians and financiers. Still considered nothing more than theory to many, more and more people wake up each day to the possibility that this is not just a theory, but a terrifying Satanic conspiracy.

This is the first English translation of this revolutionary essay by Vladimir I. Vernadsky, the great Russian-Ukrainian biogeochemist. It was first published in 1930 in French in the Revue générale des sciences pures et appliquées. In it, Vernadsky makes a powerful and provocative argument for the need to develop what he calls “a new physics,” something he felt was clearly necessitated by the implications of the groundbreaking work of Louis Pasteur among few others, but also something that was required to free science from the long-lasting effects of the work of Isaac Newton, most notably.
For hundreds of years, science had developed in a direction which became increasingly detached from the breakthroughs made in the study of life and the natural sciences, detached even from human life itself, and committed reductionists and small-minded scientists were resolved to the fact that ultimately all would be reduced to “the old physics.” The scientific revolution of Einstein was a step in the right direction, but here Vernadsky insists that there is more progress to be made. He makes a bold call for a new physics, taking into account, and fundamentally based upon, the striking anomalies of life and human life.

Using an inspired combination of geometric logic and metaphors from familiar human experience, Bucky invites readers to join him on a trip through a four-dimensional Universe, where concepts as diverse as entropy, Einstein's relativity equations, and the meaning of existence become clear, understandable, and immediately involving. In his own words: "Dare to be naive... It is one of our most exciting discoveries that local discovery leads to a complex of further discoveries." Here are three key examples or concepts from "Synergetics":

Tensegrity

Tensegrity, or tensional integrity, refers to structural systems that use a combination of tension and compression components. The simplest example of this is the "tensegrity triangle", where three struts are held in position not by touching one another but by tensioned wires. These systems are stable and flexible. Tensegrity structures are pervasive in natural systems, from the cellular level up to larger biological and even cosmological scales.

Vector Equilibrium (VE)

The Vector Equilibrium, often referred to by Fuller as the "VE", is a geometric form that he saw as the central form in his synergetic geometry. It’s essentially a cuboctahedron. Fuller noted that the VE is the only geometric form wherein all the vectors (lines from the center to the vertices) are of equal length and angular relationship. Because of this, it’s seen as a condition of absolute equilibrium, where the forces of push and pull are balanced.

Closest Packing of Spheres

Fuller was fascinated by how spheres could be packed together in the tightest possible configuration, a concept he often linked to how nature organizes systems. For example, when you stack oranges in a grocery store, they form a hexagonal pattern, and the spheres (oranges) are in closest-packed arrangement. Fuller related this principle to atomic structures and even cosmic organization.

To prepare Americans and freedom loving people everywhere for our current global wartime reality that few understand, here comes The Citizen's Guide to Fifth Generation Warfare (CG5GW) by Lieutenant General, U.S. Army (Retired) Michael T. Flynn and Sergeant, U.S. Army (Retired) Boone Cutler. General Flynn rose to the highest levels of the intelligence community and served as the National Security Advisor to the 45th POTUS. Sergeant Boone Cutler ran the ground game as a wartime Psychological Operations team sergeant in the United States Army. Together, these two combat veterans put their combined experience and expertise into an illuminating fifth-generation warfare information series called The Citizen's Guide to Fifth Generation Warfare. Introduction to 5GW is the first session of the multipart series. The series, complete with easy-to-understand diagrams, is written for all of humanity in every freedom loving country.

Vladimir I. Vernadsky (1863-1945) was a Russian and Ukrainian mineralogist and geochemist who is best known for his work on the biosphere and the noosphere concepts. His ideas have profoundly influenced various scientific fields, from geology to biology and even philosophy. Here's the summary of his one of his concepts:

Biosphere :

  • Vernadsky defined the biosphere as the thin layer of Earth where life exists, encompassing all living organisms and the parts of the Earth where they interact. This includes the depths of the oceans to the upper layers of the atmosphere.
  • He posited that life plays a critical role in transforming the Earth's environment. In this view, living organisms are not just passive inhabitants of the planet, but active agents of change. This idea contrasts with more traditional views that saw life as simply adapting to pre-existing environmental conditions.
  • One example of this transformative power is the oxygen-rich atmosphere, which was created by photosynthesizing organisms over billions of years.

It's worth noting that Vernadsky's ideas were formulated in a period when the world was experiencing rapid technological changes and were before the advent of concerns about global challenges like climate change. Today, his ideas can be seen in a new light, as we recognize the significant impact human activity has on the planet, from the changing climate to the alteration of biogeochemical cycles. Overall, Vernadsky's thesis about the biosphere and the noosphere offers a holistic perspective on the evolution of the Earth and humanity's role in that evolution. It emphasizes the profound interconnectedness between life, the environment, and human cognition and culture.

Vladimir I. Vernadsky (1863-1945) was a Russian and Ukrainian mineralogist and geochemist who is best known for his work on the biosphere and the noosphere concepts. His ideas have profoundly influenced various scientific fields, from geology to biology and even philosophy. Here's the summary of his one of his concepts:

Noosphere :

  • The concept of the noosphere can be seen as the next evolutionary stage following the biosphere. While the biosphere represents the realm of life, the noosphere represents the realm of human thought.
  • Vernadsky believed that, just as life transformed the Earth through the biosphere, human thought and collective intelligence would transform the planet in the era of the noosphere. This transformation would be characterized by the dominance of cultural evolution over biological evolution.
  • In this paradigm, human knowledge, technology, and cultural developments would become the primary drivers of change on the planet, influencing its future direction.
  • The term "noosphere" is derived from the Greek word “nous” meaning "mind" or "intellect" and "sphaira" meaning "sphere." So, the noosphere can be thought of as the "sphere of human thought."

A close analysis of the architecture of the stupa―a Buddhist symbolic form that is found throughout South, Southeast, and East Asia. The author, who trained as an architect, examines both the physical and metaphysical levels of these buildings, which derive their meaning and significance from Buddhist and Brahmanist influences.

Building on his extensive research into the sacred symbols and creation myths of the Dogon of Africa and those of ancient Egypt, India, and Tibet, Laird Scranton investigates the myths, symbols, and traditions of prehistoric China, providing further evidence that the cosmology of all ancient cultures arose from a single now-lost source.

It is at the same time a history of language, a guide to foreign tongues, and a method for learning them. It shows, through basic vocabularies, family resemblances of languages―Teutonic, Romance, Greek―helpful tricks of translation, key combinations of roots and phonetic patterns. It presents by common-sense methods the most helpful approach to the mastery of many languages; it condenses vocabulary to a minimum of essential words; it simplifies grammar in an entirely new way; and it teaches a languages as it is actually used in everyday life.
But this book is more than a guide to foreign languages; it goes deep into the roots of all knowledge as it explores the history of speech. It lights up the dim pathways of prehistory and unfolds the story of the slow growth of human expression from the most primitive signs and sounds to the elaborate variations of the highest cultures. Without language no knowledge would be possible; here we see how language is at once the source and the reservoir of all we know.

Taking only the most elementary knowledge for granted, Lancelot Hogben leads readers of this famous book through the whole course from simple arithmetic to calculus. His illuminating explanation is addressed to the person who wants to understand the place of mathematics in modern civilization but who has been intimidated by its supposed difficulty. Mathematics is the language of size, shape, and order―a language Hogben shows one can both master and enjoy.

A complete manual for the study and practice of Raja Yoga, the path of concentration and meditation. These timeless teachings is a treasure to be read and referred to again and again by seekers treading the spiritual path. The classic Sutras, at least 4,000 years old, cover the yogic teachings on ethics, meditation, and physical postures, and provide directions for dealing with situations in daily life. The Sutras are presented here in the purest form, with the original Sanskrit and with translation, transliteration, and commentary by Sri Swami Satchidananda, one of the most respected and revered contemporary Yoga masters. Sri Swamiji offers practical advice based on his own experience for mastering the mind and achieving physical, mental and emotional harmony.

William Strauss and Neil Howe will change the way you see the world - and your place in it. With blazing originality, The Fourth Turning illuminates the past, explains the present, and reimagines the future. Most remarkably, it offers an utterly persuasive prophecy about how America’s past will predict its future.

Strauss and Howe base this vision on a provocative theory of American history. The authors look back 500 years and uncover a distinct pattern: Modern history moves in cycles, each one lasting about the length of a long human life, each composed of four eras - or "turnings" - that last about 20 years and that always arrive in the same order. In The Fourth Turning, the authors illustrate these cycles using a brilliant analysis of the post-World War II period.

First comes a High, a period of confident expansion as a new order takes root after the old has been swept away. Next comes an Awakening, a time of spiritual exploration and rebellion against the now-established order. Then comes an Unraveling, an increasingly troubled era in which individualism triumphs over crumbling institutions. Last comes a Crisis - the Fourth Turning - when society passes through a great and perilous gate in history. Together, the four turnings comprise history's seasonal rhythm of growth, maturation, entropy, and rebirth.

Excess Deaths & Why RFK Jr. Can Win The Democratic Presidential Race - Ed Dowd | Part 1 of 2 - 06-21-2023

All original edition. Nothing added, nothing removed. This book traces the history of the ancient Khazar Empire, a major but almost forgotten power in Eastern Europe, which in the Dark Ages became converted to Judaism. Khazaria was finally wiped out by the forces of Genghis Khan, but evidence indicates that the Khazars themselves migrated to Poland and formed the cradle of Western Jewry. To the general reader the Khazars, who flourished from the 7th to 11th century, may seem infinitely remote today. Yet they have a close and unexpected bearing on our world, which emerges as Koestler recounts the fascinating history of the ancient Khazar Empire.

At about the time that Charlemagne was Emperor in the West. The Khazars' sway extended from the Black Sea to the Caspian, from the Caucasus to the Volga, and they were instrumental in stopping the Muslim onslaught against Byzantium, the eastern jaw of the gigantic pincer movement that in the West swept across northern Africa and into Spain.Thereafter the Khazars found themselves in a precarious position between the two major world powers: the Eastern Roman Empire in Byzantium and the triumphant followers of Mohammed.As Koestler points out, the Khazars were the Third World of their day. They chose a surprising method of resisting both the Western pressure to become Christian and the Eastern to adopt Islam. Rejecting both, they converted to Judaism. Mr. Koestler speculates about the ultimate faith of the Khazars and their impact on the racial composition and social heritage of modern Jewry.

Few people noticed the secret codewords used by our astronauts to describe the moon. Until now, few knew about the strange moving lights they reported.
George H. Leonard, former NASA scientist, fought through the official veil of secrecy and studied thousands of NASA photographs, spoke candidly with dozens of NASA officials, and listened to hours and hours of astronauts' tapes.
Here, Leonard presents the stunning and inescapable evidence discovered during his in-depth investigation:

  • Immense mechanical rigs, some over a mile long, working the lunar surface.
  • Strange geometric ground markings and symbols.
  • Lunar constructions several times higher than anything built on Earth.
  • Vehicles, tracks, towers, pipes, conduits, and conveyor belts running in and across moon craters.
Somebody else is indeed on the Moon, and engaged in activities on a massive scale. Our space agencies, and many of the world's top scientists, have known for years that there is intelligent life on the moon.

The article delves into the history of the Khazars, a polity in the Northern Caucasus that existed from the mid-seventh century until about 970 CE. Contrary to popular belief, the term "Khazars" is misleading as it was a multiethnic entity, and it's uncertain which specific group adopted Judaism. The Khazars first emerged in the seventh century, defeating the Bulgars, which led to the Bulgars' dispersion to various regions. The Khazar Empire was established through the expulsion of the Bulgars and was multiethnic in nature. The language spoken by the Khazars is debated, with some suggesting Turkic origins and others pointing to Slavic. The Khazars had several cities and fortresses, with significant archaeological findings. The Khazars had interactions with various empires, including wars with the Arabs and alliances with Byzantine emperors. By the mid-10th century, the Khazar capital of Itil was destroyed by the Russians. The article concludes that much of what is known about the Khazars is based on limited sources.

In The Science of the Dogon, Laird Scranton demonstrated that the cosmological structure described in the myths and drawings of the Dogon runs parallel to modern science--atomic theory, quantum theory, and string theory--their drawings often taking the same form as accurate scientific diagrams that relate to the formation of matter.

Sacred Symbols of the Dogon uses these parallels as the starting point for a new interpretation of the Egyptian hieroglyphic language. By substituting Dogon cosmological drawings for equivalent glyph-shapes in Egyptian words, a new way of reading and interpreting the Egyptian hieroglyphs emerges. Scranton shows how each hieroglyph constitutes an entire concept, and that their meanings are scientific in nature.

The Dogon people of Mali, West Africa, are famous for their unique art and advanced cosmology. The Dogon’s creation story describes how the one true god, Amma, created all the matter of the universe. Interestingly, the myths that depict his creative efforts bear a striking resemblance to the modern scientific definitions of matter, beginning with the atom and continuing all the way to the vibrating threads of string theory. Furthermore, many of the Dogon words, symbols, and rituals used to describe the structure of matter are quite similar to those found in the myths of ancient Egypt and in the daily rituals of Judaism. For example, the modern scientific depiction of the informed universe as a black hole is identical to Amma’s Egg of the Dogon and the Egyptian Benben Stone.

The Science of the Dogon offers a case-by-case comparison of Dogon descriptions and drawings to corresponding scientific definitions and diagrams from authors like Stephen Hawking and Brian Greene, then extends this analysis to the counterparts of these symbols in both the ancient Egyptian and Hebrew religions. What is ultimately revealed is the scientific basis for the language of the Egyptian hieroglyphs, which was deliberately encoded to prevent the knowledge of these concepts from falling into the hands of all but the highest members of the Egyptian priesthood.

Anthony C. Yu’s translation of The Journey to the West,initially published in 1983, introduced English-speaking audiences to the classic Chinese novel in its entirety for the first time. Written in the sixteenth century, The Journey to the West tells the story of the fourteen-year pilgrimage of the monk Xuanzang, one of China’s most famous religious heroes, and his three supernatural disciples, in search of Buddhist scriptures. Throughout his journey, Xuanzang fights demons who wish to eat him, communes with spirits, and traverses a land riddled with a multitude of obstacles, both real and fantastical. An adventure rich with danger and excitement, this seminal work of the Chinese literary canonis by turns allegory, satire, and fantasy.

With over a hundred chapters written in both prose and poetry, The Journey to the West has always been a complicated and difficult text to render in English while preserving the lyricism of its language and the content of its plot. But Yu has successfully taken on the task, and in this new edition he has made his translations even more accurate and accessible. The explanatory notes are updated and augmented, and Yu has added new material to his introduction, based on his original research as well as on the newest literary criticism and scholarship on Chinese religious traditions. He has also modernized the transliterations included in each volume, using the now-standard Hanyu Pinyin romanization system. Perhaps most important, Yu has made changes to the translation itself in order to make it as precise as possible.

One of the great works of Chinese literature, The Journey to the West is not only invaluable to scholars of Eastern religion and literature, but, in Yu’s elegant rendering, also a delight for any reader.

The Oera Linda Book is a 19th-century translation by Dr. Ottema and WIlliam R. Sandbach of an old manuscript written in the Old Frisian language that records historical, mythological, and religious themes of remote antiquity, compiled between 2194 BC and AD 803.

  • The Oera Linda book challenges traditional views of pre-Christian societies.
  • Christianization is likened to a "great reset" that erased previous civilizations.
  • The Fryan language provides insights into the beliefs and values of the Fryan people.
  • The cyclical nature of time is emphasized, suggesting patterns in history.
  • The importance of identity and understanding one's roots is highlighted.
  • The Oera Linda book offers wisdom and insights into several European languages.

The Oera Linda book offers a fresh perspective on our history, challenging the notion that pre-Christian societies were uncivilized. It suggests that the Christianization of societies was a form of "great reset," erasing and demonizing what existed before. The Oera Linda writings hint at an advanced civilization with its own laws, writing, and societal structures. Jan Ott's translation from the Fryan language provides insights into the beliefs and values of the Fryan people. The text also touches upon the guilt many feel today, even if they aren't religious, about issues like climate change and historical slavery. It criticizes the way science is sometimes treated like a religion, with scientists acting as its preachers. The cyclical nature of time is emphasized, suggesting that understanding history requires recognizing patterns and cycles. Christianity is portrayed as one of the most significant resets in history, with sects fighting and erasing each other's scriptures. The importance of identity is highlighted, with a focus on the Fryans, a tribe that faced challenges from another tribe from Finland. This other tribe had a different moral compass, leading to conflicts and eventual assimilation. The text suggests that the true history of the Fryans and their values might have been distorted by subsequent Christian narratives. The Oera Linda book is seen as a source of wisdom, shedding light on the origins of several European languages and offering insights into values like freedom, truth, and justice.

The Talmud is one of the most important holy books of the Hebrew religion and of the world. No English translation of the book existed until the author presented this work. To this day, very little of the actual text seems available in English -- although we find many interpretive commentaries on what it is supposed to mean. The Talmud has a reputation for being long and difficult to digest, but Polano has taken what he believes to be the best material and put it into extremely readable form. As far as holy books of the world are concerned, it is on par with The Koran, The Bhagavad-Gita and, of course, The Bible, in importance. This clearly written edition will allow many to experience The Talmud who may have otherwise not had the chance.

This five-volume set is the only complete English rendering of The Zohar, the fundamental rabbinic work on Jewish mysticism that has fascinated readers for more than seven centuries. In addition to being the primary reference text for kabbalistic studies, this magnificent work is arranged in the form of a commentary on the Bible, bringing to the surface the deeper meanings behind the commandments and biblical narrative. As The Zohar itself proclaims: Woe unto those who see in the Law nothing but simple narratives and ordinary words .... Every word of the Law contains an elevated sense and a sublime mystery .... The narratives of the Law are but the raiment Thin which it is swathed.

Twenty-one years ago, at a friend's request, a Massachusetts professor sketched out a blueprint for nonviolent resistance to repressive regimes. It would go on to be translated, photocopied, and handed from one activist to another, traveling from country to country across the globe: from Iran to Venezuela―where both countries consider Gene Sharp to be an enemy of the state―to Serbia; Afghanistan; Vietnam; the former Soviet Union; China; Nepal; and, more recently and notably, Tunisia, Egypt, Yemen, Libya, and Syria, where it has served as a guiding light of the Arab Spring.

This short, pithy, inspiring, and extraordinarily clear guide to overthrowing a dictatorship by nonviolent means lists 198 specific methods to consider, depending on the circumstances: sit-ins, popular nonobedience, selective strikes, withdrawal of bank deposits, revenue refusal, walkouts, silence, and hunger strikes. From Dictatorship to Democracy is the remarkable work that has made the little-known Sharp into the world's most effective and sought-after analyst of resistance to authoritarian regimes.

Bill Cooper, former United States Naval Intelligence Briefing Team member, reveals information that remains hidden from the public eye. This information has been kept in topsecret government files since the 1940s. His audiences hear the truth unfold as he writes about the assassination of John F. Kennedy, the war on drugs, the secret government, and UFOs. Bill is a lucid, rational, and powerful speaker whose intent is to inform and to empower his audience. Standing room only is normal. His presentation and information transcend partisan affiliations as he clearly addresses issues in a way that has a striking impact on listeners of all backgrounds and interests. He has spoken to many groups throughout the United States and has appeared regularly on many radio talk shows and on television. In 1988 Bill decided to "talk" due to events then taking place worldwide, events that he had seen plans for back in the early 1970s. Bill correctly predicted the lowering of the Iron Curtain, the fall of the Berlin Wall, and the invasion of Panama. All Bill's predictions were on record well before the events occurred. Bill is not a psychic. His information comes from top secret documents that he read while with the Intelligence Briefing Team and from over seventeen years of research.

The argument that the 16th Amendment (which concerns the federal income tax) was not properly ratified and thus is invalid has been a topic of debate among some tax protesters and scholars. One of the individuals associated with this theory is Bill Benson, who asserted that the 16th Amendment was fraudulently ratified. Here's a brief overview of the argument: 1. Research and Documentation: Bill Benson, along with another individual named M.J. "Red" Beckman, wrote a two-volume work called "The Law That Never Was" in the 1980s. This work was a product of Benson's extensive travels to various state archives to examine the original ratification documents related to the 16th Amendment. 2. Claims of Irregularities: In his work, Benson presented evidence that claimed many of the states either did not ratify the 16th Amendment properly or made mistakes in their resolutions. Some of these alleged irregularities included misspellings, incorrect wording, and other deviations from the proposed amendment. 3. Philander Knox's Role: In 1913, Philander Knox, who was the U.S. Secretary of State at the time, declared that the 16th Amendment had been ratified by the necessary three-fourths of the states. Benson's contention is that Knox was aware of the various discrepancies and irregularities in the ratification process but chose to fraudulently declare the amendment ratified anyway. 4. Legal Challenges and Court Rulings: Over the years, some tax protesters have used Benson's findings to challenge the legality of the income tax. However, these challenges have been consistently rejected by the courts. In fact, several courts have addressed Benson's research and arguments directly and found them to be without legal merit. The courts have repeatedly upheld the validity of the 16th Amendment. 5. Counterarguments: Critics of Benson's theory argue that even if there were minor discrepancies in the wording or format of the ratification documents, they do not invalidate the overarching intent of the states to ratify the amendment. Additionally, they assert that there's no substantive evidence that Knox acted fraudulently. It's worth noting that despite the popularity of this theory among certain groups, the legal consensus in the U.S. is that the 16th Amendment was validly ratified and is a legitimate part of the U.S. Constitution. Those who refuse to pay income taxes based on this theory have faced legal penalties.

The article delves into the evolution of the concept of the ether in physics. Historically, the ether was postulated to explain the propagation of light, with figures like Newton and Huygens suggesting its existence. By the late 19th century, Maxwell's electromagnetic theory linked light's propagation to the ether, a theory experimentally validated by Hertz in 1888. Lorentz expanded on this, focusing on wave transmission in moving media. The article contrasts the English approach, which sought tangible models, with the phenomenological view, which aimed for a descriptive approach without specific hypotheses. The piece also touches on various mechanical theories and models proposed over the years, emphasizing the challenges in defining the ether's properties and its evolving nature in scientific discourse.

LK-99 - 08-02-2023

Episode Summary:

Today marks the celebration of LK 99, a groundbreaking room temperature and ambient pressure superconductor invented by Korean scientists. Unlike previous superconductors which required extremely cold temperatures to function, LK 99 can operate in any temperature and ambient pressure, repelling electromagnetic fields and floating due to its unique crystal structure. With its discovery, there's potential to replace large electrical cables with thinner wires, redefine computer circuitry, and even build floating vehicles. The formula has been released and replicated, sparking excitement in the scientific and hobbyist communities alike.

The text describes the capabilities of an electrical superconductor, LK 99. This superconductor can be manipulated to create a floating mechanism by altering the electrical fields around it. This technology has potential applications like creating floating vehicles, high-speed rail, and generating ambient electricity from air. The author suggests that LK 99's appearance is similar to stone and might have historical references in structures. Furthermore, he expresses a personal intention to explore the creation of LK 99, juxtaposed with a brief account of his cancer journey and challenges with medical diagnosis.

In 2017, the author purchased a property and had it remodeled in 2018. However, due to health issues and the urgency of the situation, the contractor did subpar work, leading to many structural issues that now need fixing. The author's office, intended as a lab, is filled with construction materials. Despite these challenges, the author expresses excitement about LK 99, a new ambient temperature superconductor, that has the potential to revolutionize the world, comparing the current era to a "sci-fi world."

LK-99 - 08-02-2023

Hello, humans. Hello, humans. How you doing? Early in the morning, it's like, what is it? It's 817 on the 2 August.

Today is LK-99 day. LK-99. So a couple of Korean guys, scientist, fellows, were futzing around and mixing with some stuff, and they came up with this material. I mean, they actually designed the experiment. They designed the mix. It was not happenstance, but they came up with a material that's now been labeled as LK 99.

And LK 99 is a superconductor. And this is like the first holy grail of superconductors, okay? It's room temperature and ambient pressure superconductor. And it simply sits there and floats in the presence of a magnetic field. And it does so because of the nature of the crystal at its core.

And so if you thought of a crystal in whatever shape, in this case as having four points, these four points, those that are directly opposite each other, form an internal matrix within the material itself such that from every aspect, every view, so to speak, it repels, or is repelled by a magnetic field or an electromagnetic field. So even in the presence of an electrical field, this substance reacts and wants to float. So we've got our room temperature ambient pressure superconductor that has been duplicated. So today is a big day because LK 99 was invented, like, I think maybe, well, three or four months ago, it started coming out that it was available, that people had messed with it. Right then.

Everybody got real excited a couple of weeks ago, and a lot of people had been trying to replicate the formula. And today we have someone claiming to have replicated the formula. And indeed, it does perform as the Korean scientist had claimed. So this is good. This is all good.

And the superconductors oh, man, you don't know what this is going to mean for us. Okay, so the first ambient temperature, ambient pressure, and that's what we've actually got here, is not simply room temperature, but ambient. So the characteristics that I have looked at relative to LK 99, relative to temperature and its performance seems to indicate that this would be an ambient pressure or ambient temperature, just like ambient pressure. So pressure is a function. Pressure in our environment is a function of temperature, or rather, it reacts to temperature, right?

It's not directly controlled by it or anything, but it certainly impacts how pressure is generated in the natural environment. So this gets a little bit tricky in the science, but it's not necessary that we go very deep into it. But the idea is that an ambient temperature superconductor would float in the presence of an electrical or magnetic field regardless of what the temperature at the time of its exposure. This has not been the case with the superconductors we've had so far because they've had to have been created at huge amounts of pressure and have to basically work at super cooled conditions. So they don't work.

If it's like room temperature, you'd have to super cool the bugger until minus empty, umpty, empty degree in order to get the things to work. Now, we've got one that is repelling an electromagnetic field or a magnetic field hovering within it and is operating as though all the magnetic pressures on it are equal. We don't know yet. I have no way of validating whether that's the case. I don't think they've got big enough samples to start destroying it to see if there's activity within it when exposed to the magnetic field, which is the only way you're going to be able to tell if it's at an equal response, no matter what the angle.

That's sort of a key thing. It's not critical, but it means that you've got the true Holy Grail, if that is the case. Okay, so one thing is that we could replace all these giant electrical lines that are all over the country with little thin, super hard wires that would carry far more juice.

The general public assumes that electricity travels inside the wires, and that's not the case, all right? Electricity travels across and crawls across the external surface of wire of conductors.

Hang on a second. Got to tank up, heading inland and going to do my shopping. I need the coffee to get me through it all anyway. So at room temperature or ambient temperature, which means you could use it in space, wouldn't matter what the temperature is, nor would it matter that you were in a changing temperature environment, say, going from cold to hot or hot to cold, it's not going to affect you. So most of the superconductors, all of the superconductors prior to LK 99, if you altered the temperature, they would no longer function as a superconductor conductor.

And as I say, it required vast quantities of pressure just to create the thing. This is not the case with LK 99. So you could just theoretically, I mean, it's a little bit complicated to make it, but the formula is out there. You could get the materials yourself and start messing with it.

It's not risky. You're not going to blow yourself up or anything trying to create it, mostly. So you could have people making this shit in their backyard anyway. So that's going to be a huge boon to us because we could replace all of those giant electrical cables with micro thin wire made out of this stuff. We wouldn't have to consume vast quantities of copper.

You'd be able to recreate computers with a tracery that would be almost invisible. So we could get to the point where we could create the Roswell spaceships that were shot down, crashed, or whatever the fuck. Now with a room temperature or ambient temperature, ambient pressure, superconductor, we can recreate those, right? So you could theoretically have a microfine wire, like less than, say, a 32nd of an inch across, and maybe it's going to have to have even at a 32nd of an inch. So about the size of a human hair or smaller in diameter.

And it may need to have a half of an inch or more of plastic insulation around it. Just so you know where the thing is, right? Probably we'll also have to do something towards it's not breaking within its insulation. The insulation is not for temperature and so forth, just for basically physical damage kind of thing to it. Because superconductors are at their service level, somewhat fragile anyway.

So you could replace all of our giant electrical cables with these microfine wires. So we wouldn't use fast quantities. Copper be able to redo computer chips, remake computer boards. The tracery is going to be just almost nonexistent for the loads it's going to carry, which means we can have flexible computers. So you could make a computer out of cloth, basically superconducting cloth, so you could wear your computer at that level.

Plus we'll have floating RVs and little tiny wafers you put under the largest load. And then you just apply a little bit of electricity to elevate it. And then you push it around. It doesn't weigh anything at that stage because the weight's been taken by the superconductor. So all kinds of things are going to happen now that we've got this LK 99 out there and that the formula has been released and people are starting to mess around with it.

Scientist guys. And now pretty soon we'll get into the hobbyists and then it's really going to take off because the hobbyists are usually guys that have a specific purpose, right? So in that sense, I would be a hobbyist. So I would want to make a bunch of this LK 99 and go put it around my old GMC motorhome, right? So I got a 1978 GMC motorhome here, 26ft.

So I could wrap this, wrap it in this material, make sure it's all riveted in place and stuff so it doesn't fall off, and then go float about, right? Basically work out the mechanisms of having a floating RV. Once I can get the RV to float, then it's an issue of how do you propel it, because you should be able to with a superconductor. Here's the thing about that. You should be able to alter the electrical field, so to speak, ahead of it, the direction you want to go, and it would fall into that area.

So in a sense, you have the electrical superconductor. It floats because you create a 360 degree bubble that surrounds it in electricity, and it's reacting to the electricity. And it's going to find its stasis point within the middle of that electrical bubble. Now, if you altered that electricity and you would decrease it in one area, the superconductor, in a sense, is going to try and fall into that decreased electrical field area because the electrical field will sort of push it that direction. The other non altered electrical field, so then we start getting to the point where we can manipulate the electrical field and of course we will use LK 99 as the conductors within our electrical field, but also the emitters of that electrical field around it.

So, theoretically, we could paint my GMC with this material, and then it would float. And then I would be able to use little points of electricity that may extend out through it and alter an electrical field on the outside of it. And thus it would have a tendency to think of the area that I've altered as being down. And so gravity would take over and it would fall into that area, and you would stop it from falling by increasing the electrical field in that area, which would repulse the LK 99 and put it into a state of stasis relative to the electrical fields that are around it. And so we truly have our floating RVs and absent catastrophic getting struck by a missile or something, absent that sort of thing, you shouldn't even really be able to like, fall, right?

So as long as you had even a little bit of magnetic field or electrical field, if your LK 99 craft is structured appropriately, at most, it would gently rock its way down to earth as it settled through the various different layers of Earth's magnetic field because it's going to be repelled by all of those or put into a point of equidistant stasis on all of those. So it could be quite fascinating to start playing with the LK 99 and look into its chemical formula and seeing how much of it you can do at home, that sort of thing. I haven't examined the construction of it, so it may require heat to fuse these materials, et cetera, et cetera. I don't know what is the particulars of its creation, but from what brief descriptions I've read of it in the laboratory, it's not that big of a deal. And so we'll see.

And also, now that we've got this stuff, there's going to be refinements made to the process of its creation. And hopefully then we'll start getting into big LK 99, and then LK 99 Variants get into major production of it. And here we go. Sci-fi World. So maybe the invention of LK 99, but today for sure, the confirmation that it does perform as described is probably so today we could say, well, probably today is the anniversary date, the date of incept for Sci-fi World, because we now have our room temperature superconductors, and with this, we can do so much, right?

Not only spaceships, we can eliminate rockets. You could eliminate pollution in the sense you could have LK 99 power your car. You wouldn't need a gas engine kind of a thing, little battery and an electric field ahead of you. An electric field behind you. And even so, you could just keep gravity as it is, roll on the tires and just make the LK 99 think there's a gravity well ahead of the way you want to go and it'll sort of fall that direction.

So there'd probably be some moving parts, but very few moving parts in order to create an engine with this. And superconducting trains that put those on the train tracks. And you got high speed rail, really high speed rail. And you could do it such that no matter what happened, the LK 99 could not lift off of the tracks by more than X number of inches. And there would be a barrier on the other side of that which would be created by the LK 99 itself both in the train and on the track itself such that it would be like a built in safety kind of a thing, right?

That if there was a tendency for the train to want to depart the track because of speed or some kind of an accident, the actual track and the train itself would work, cooperate to defeat that push away from it. So LK 99 is going to be some pretty cool stuff here's. So it's coincident that during this period of time, of the initial rush here of LK 99 into our social order, I've also come across or discovered the potential that I'm correct about the Patanjali's Yoga Sutras not being about yoga, stretching, enlightenment, any of that. So we have to consider something here. Patanjali's Yoga Sutras are one of the oldest, let's just call it religious production books around.

They don't really know how old it is. There is an oral tradition for it, which is why you have several different versions. Most of them have solidified around a version of Patanjali's Sutras that is, I think from like, let's just say in the last 4000 years, right? But there were oral traditions for this and previous versions that appear to go back many more thousands of years than that. So there's no way we can ascertain the point of origin of the Yoga Sutras in previous forms of Sanskrit.

And there was a prescript version, what they call it samskara. Samskara, I think. Anyway, it probably goes back pre last cycle, so well over 13,000 or 14,000 years old linguistically. And that language is the root language that was used in the previous cycle by those people that did all of the great engineering and stuff in India, but also in areas like Ankor Watt and all of these kind of things. So bear in mind here, by the way, that LK 99, as a superconductor, it's going to look a little bit like stone or granite or something.

It's just sort of gray material. You'd be able to do things like we see with the tartarians. Okay? You can put the superconductor on your building. Maybe you can just paint it on, I don't know.

And it's going to pull electricity out of the air. If it's a fixed to a building and it's less than is required to lift the building in those kind of operations. Then we're going to find that the material itself would be able to be used as a sort of electrical generator in the sense of being able to paint it on all of your spires and this sort of thing, and conduct the electricity down to where you need it. And it's just going to pick up ambient ionization and static electricity in the air. And you can be able to use it because of the nature of the superconductor wanting to have equilibrium with all of the fields around it.

It will aid as a device in achieving that equilibrium for itself, even if that and especially for us, that means we would rake off this ambient level of electricity to run lights or whatever. Right? So anyway, quite fascinating about the appearance of it. I'm going to go ahead over the next probably month or so, order what I can and see what I need in the way of equipment. It may not really be possible for me to start making this shit now because my office is all filled with construction equipment and supplies and stuff, so I can get at fixing the house.

So just basically here's what happened. I relocated in 2018. I was dying from cancer. Everything was I didn't know I was dying from cancer. I knew I was dying.

I was not well, right? I'd lost vast quantities of weight. They couldn't find anything wrong with me. And they kept telling me, the stupid doctors. One doctor says, oh, it's your liver.

And then this other doctor says, it's this, that, or the other thing, right? None of which actually worked out. And then in 2018, I say, okay, I got to get my wife settled. I got to do things for her because I'm not going to last, right? I doubt I would last the year, which was true.

I didn't last all of 2018. But anyway, so 2017, we buy this property. I get a contractor in there, but because I'm dying, I cannot afford to take time to allow him to go through it and do all of these various different things, right? We had a big long list. And then it turns out the bastard shortchanged me, so to speak, using inferior materials and doing shoddy work.

So there's a lot of shit I got to do to repair this house that had been basically remodeled in 2018. But the nature of the work that the guy did is shit. And so I've got a lot of things I've got to do, regretfully, right. I just didn't want to take my time to do this, but here it is, and I've got to go do it. So my office is all filled with the materials I'm going to be using and this sort of thing.

And the office itself, also done by this guy, has serious structural problems with it. I don't know what basically it's rotting. I don't know where the moisture is coming in or what's going on but the whole floor is rotting out. The office had been turned into a studio and a warehouse and now all of the material in the warehouse is all shifting because the floor is running out from underneath it and so it's all collapsing down to the underlying subfloor. Real royal pain, let me tell you, and did not intend to get into it but that's what's going to be this year into next.

So basically all through winter just going to have to grit the teeth and do it.

I've got my guy Kale acting as my general contractor and getting shit done for me. We're getting crews and stuff but still it's going to be a royal paint. It's just not easy in a small house. We've got like I think there's 1600ft in it. It's not easy in a small house to be able to live there and have work done on it, right?

Especially when we're talking about having to redo ceilings and all different kinds of stuff because of stupid decisions that he made with plumbing that didn't work out right. So anyway, I'm not really pissed about that, about all of that that was done while I was dying. That was a previous iteration of me. I had to do it at the time. Decisions had to be made the way they were and now I just have to deal with the aftermath of that.

In any event though, so this will put some distance between myself and the ability to go out into my little office which was going to be my lab and had been my lab for a while and to set things up and produce some LK 99 and start playing with this stuff. But maybe I can get at that this winter. Maybe we can do a big push and get a lot of this stuff on the house done before the weather sets in and clamps down on us anyway though. So I will start pursuing the LK 99 but I'm not going to be alone. There's going to be potentially millions of people fucking with this shit and discovering stuff, taking variants, creating variants of it that have different characteristics.

And I think we really are off to the races now as humanity is going to be moving into sci-fi world now that we have the science fiction component of it, right? The ambient temperature, ambient pressure, superconductor. So anyway, good times at that level. Yeah. The rest of the world's going to hell.

People are still dying from the shots and they're still trying to push it. We're still fighting the stupid fucking communists that have taken over all of this kind of stuff. However, universe seems to be providing incentives and reinforcement to our progress in all of these other areas as well now as the Sci-Fi part of it all. So anyway, so we're going to get to working on our floaty RV here pretty quick. Just watching some major equipment, doing some stuff in an area that hadn't had anything mucked with for some time.

I don't know what's going on there. Anyway, guys, so take care. Another one of these on the way out. But LK 99 look it up. It's quite exciting.

It's going to change your world.

The bible for bringing cutting-edge products to larger markets—now revised and updated with new insights into the realities of high-tech marketing In Crossing the Chasm, Geoffrey A. Moore shows that in the Technology Adoption Life Cycle—which begins with innovators and moves to early adopters, early majority, late majority, and laggards—there is a vast chasm between the early adopters and the early majority. While early adopters are willing to sacrifice for the advantage of being first, the early majority waits until they know that the technology actually offers improvements in productivity. The challenge for innovators and marketers is to narrow this chasm and ultimately accelerate adoption across every segment. This third edition brings Moore's classic work up to date with dozens of new examples of successes and failures, new strategies for marketing in the digital world, and Moore's most current insights and findings. He also includes two new appendices, the first connecting the ideas in Crossing the Chasm to work subsequently published in his Inside the Tornado, and the second presenting his recent groundbreaking work for technology adoption models for high-tech consumer markets.

Endless terror. Refugee waves. An unfixable global economy. Surprising election results. New billion-dollar fortunes. Miracle medical advances. What if they were all connected? What if you could understand why? The Seventh Sense is the story of what all of today's successful figures see and feel: the forces that are invisible to most of us but explain everything from explosive technological change to uneasy political ripples. The secret to power now is understanding our new age of networks. Not merely the Internet, but also webs of trade, finance, and even DNA. Based on his years of advising generals, CEOs, and politicians, Ramo takes us into the opaque heart of our world's rapidly connected systems and teaches us what the losers are not yet seeing -- and what the victors of this age already know.

This lushly illustrated history of popular entertainment takes a long-zoom approach, contending that the pursuit of novelty and wonder is a powerful driver of world-shaping technological change. Steven Johnson argues that, throughout history, the cutting edge of innovation lies wherever people are working the hardest to keep themselves and others amused. Johnson’s storytelling is just as delightful as the inventions he describes, full of surprising stops along the journey from simple concepts to complex modern systems. He introduces us to the colorful innovators of leisure: the explorers, proprietors, showmen, and artists who changed the trajectory of history with their luxurious wares, exotic meals, taverns, gambling tables, and magic shows. In Wonderland, Johnson compellingly argues that observers of technological and social trends should be looking for clues in novel amusements. You’ll find the future wherever people are having the most fun.

Nothing “goes viral.” If you think a popular movie, song, or app came out of nowhere to become a word-of-mouth success in today’s crowded media environment, you’re missing the real story. Each blockbuster has a secret history—of power, influence, dark broadcasters, and passionate cults that turn some new products into cultural phenomena. Even the most brilliant ideas wither in obscurity if they fail to connect with the right network, and the consumers that matter most aren't the early adopters, but rather their friends, followers, and imitators -- the audience of your audience. In his groundbreaking investigation, Atlantic senior editor Derek Thompson uncovers the hidden psychology of why we like what we like and reveals the economics of cultural markets that invisibly shape our lives. Shattering the sentimental myths of hit-making that dominate pop culture and business, Thompson shows quality is insufficient for success, nobody has "good taste," and some of the most popular products in history were one bad break away from utter failure. It may be a new world, but there are some enduring truths to what audiences and consumers want. People love a familiar surprise: a product that is bold, yet sneakily recognizable. Every business, every artist, every person looking to promote themselves and their work wants to know what makes some works so successful while others disappear. Hit Makers is a magical mystery tour through the last century of pop culture blockbusters and the most valuable currency of the twenty-first century—people’s attention. From the dawn of impressionist art to the future of Facebook, from small Etsy designers to the origin of Star Wars, Derek Thompson leaves no pet rock unturned to tell the fascinating story of how culture happens and why things become popular. In Hit Makers, Derek Thompson investigates: · The secret link between ESPN's sticky programming and the The Weeknd's catchy choruses · Why Facebook is today’s most important newspaper · How advertising critics predicted Donald Trump · The 5th grader who accidentally launched "Rock Around the Clock," the biggest hit in rock and roll history · How Barack Obama and his speechwriters think of themselves as songwriters · How Disney conquered the world—but the future of hits belongs to savvy amateurs and individuals · The French collector who accidentally created the Impressionist canon · Quantitative evidence that the biggest music hits aren’t always the best · Why almost all Hollywood blockbusters are sequels, reboots, and adaptations · Why one year--1991--is responsible for the way pop music sounds today · Why another year --1932--created the business model of film · How data scientists proved that “going viral” is a myth · How 19th century immigration patterns explain the most heard song in the Western Hemisphere

Ours is often called an information economy, but at a moment when access to information is virtually unlimited, our attention has become the ultimate commodity. In nearly every moment of our waking lives, we face a barrage of efforts to harvest our attention. This condition is not simply the byproduct of recent technological innovations but the result of more than a century's growth and expansion in the industries that feed on human attention. Wu’s narrative begins in the nineteenth century, when Benjamin Day discovered he could get rich selling newspapers for a penny. Since then, every new medium—from radio to television to Internet companies such as Google and Facebook—has attained commercial viability and immense riches by turning itself into an advertising platform. Since the early days, the basic business model of “attention merchants” has never changed: free diversion in exchange for a moment of your time, sold in turn to the highest-bidding advertiser. Full of lively, unexpected storytelling and piercing insight, The Attention Merchants lays bare the true nature of a ubiquitous reality we can no longer afford to accept at face value.

Some people think that in today’s hyper-competitive world, it’s the tough, take-no-prisoners type who comes out on top. But in reality, argues New York Times bestselling author Dave Kerpen, it’s actually those with the best people skills who win the day. Those who build the right relationships. Those who truly understand and connect with their colleagues, their customers, their partners. Those who can teach, lead, and inspire. In a world where we are constantly connected, and social media has become the primary way we communicate, the key to getting ahead is being the person others like, respect, and trust. Because no matter who you are or what profession you're in, success is contingent less on what you can do for yourself, but on what other people are willing to do for you. Here, through 53 bite-sized, easy-to-execute, and often counterintuitive tips, you’ll learn to master the 11 People Skills that will get you more of what you want at work, at home, and in life. For example, you’ll learn: · The single most important question you can ever ask to win attention in a meeting · The one simple key to networking that nobody talks about · How to remain top of mind for thousands of people, everyday · Why it usually pays to be the one to give the bad news · How to blow off the right people · And why, when in doubt, buy him a Bonsai A book best described as “How to Win Friends and Influence People for today’s world,” The Art of People shows how to charm and win over anyone to be more successful at work and outside of it.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER If you want to build a better future, you must believe in secrets. The great secret of our time is that there are still uncharted frontiers to explore and new inventions to create. In Zero to One, legendary entrepreneur and investor Peter Thiel shows how we can find singular ways to create those new things. Thiel begins with the contrarian premise that we live in an age of technological stagnation, even if we’re too distracted by shiny mobile devices to notice. Information technology has improved rapidly, but there is no reason why progress should be limited to computers or Silicon Valley. Progress can be achieved in any industry or area of business. It comes from the most important skill that every leader must master: learning to think for yourself. Doing what someone else already knows how to do takes the world from 1 to n, adding more of something familiar. But when you do something new, you go from 0 to 1. The next Bill Gates will not build an operating system. The next Larry Page or Sergey Brin won’t make a search engine. Tomorrow’s champions will not win by competing ruthlessly in today’s marketplace. They will escape competition altogether, because their businesses will be unique. Zero to One presents at once an optimistic view of the future of progress in America and a new way of thinking about innovation: it starts by learning to ask the questions that lead you to find value in unexpected places.

Why should I do business with you… and not your competitor? Whether you are a retailer, manufacturer, distributor, or service provider – if you cannot answer this question, you are surely losing customers, clients and market share. This eye-opening book reveals how identifying your competitive advantages (and trumpeting them to the marketplace) is the most surefire way to close deals, retain clients, and stay miles ahead of the competition. The five fatal flaws of most companies: • They don’t have a competitive advantage but think they do • They have a competitive advantage but don’t know what it is—so they lower prices instead • They know what their competitive advantage is but neglect to tell clients about it • They mistake “strengths” for competitive advantages • They don’t concentrate on competitive advantages when making strategic and operational decisions The good news is that you can overcome these costly mistakes – by identifying your competitive advantages and creating new ones. Consultant, public speaker, and competitive advantage expert Jaynie Smith will show you how scores of small and large companies substantially increased their sales by focusing on their competitive advantages. When advising a CEO frustrated by his salespeople’s inability to close deals, Smith discovered that his company stayed on schedule 95 percent of the time – an achievement no one else in his industry could claim. By touting this and other competitive advantages to customers, closing rates increased by 30 percent—and so did company revenues. Jack Welch has said, “If you don’t have a competitive advantage, don’t compete.” This straight-to-the-point book is filled with insightful stories and specific steps on how to pinpoint your competitive advantages, develop new ones, and get the message out about them.

The number one New York Times best seller that examines how people can champion new ideas in their careers and everyday life - and how leaders can fight groupthink, from the author of Think Again and co-author of Option B. With Give and Take, Adam Grant not only introduced a landmark new paradigm for success but also established himself as one of his generation’s most compelling and provocative thought leaders. In Originals he again addresses the challenge of improving the world, but now from the perspective of becoming original: choosing to champion novel ideas and values that go against the grain, battle conformity, and buck outdated traditions. How can we originate new ideas, policies, and practices without risking it all? Using surprising studies and stories spanning business, politics, sports, and entertainment, Grant explores how to recognize a good idea, speak up without getting silenced, build a coalition of allies, choose the right time to act, and manage fear and doubt; how parents and teachers can nurture originality in children; and how leaders can build cultures that welcome dissent. Learn from an entrepreneur who pitches his start-ups by highlighting the reasons not to invest, a woman at Apple who challenged Steve Jobs from three levels below, an analyst who overturned the rule of secrecy at the CIA, a billionaire financial wizard who fires employees for failing to criticize him, and a TV executive who didn’t even work in comedy but saved Seinfeld from the cutting-room floor. The payoff is a set of groundbreaking insights about rejecting conformity and improving the status quo.

In The $100 Startup, Chris Guillebeau tells you how to lead of life of adventure, meaning and purpose - and earn a good living. Still in his early 30s, Chris is on the verge of completing a tour of every country on earth - he's already visited more than 175 nations - and yet he’s never held a "real job" or earned a regular paycheck. Rather, he has a special genius for turning ideas into income, and he uses what he earns both to support his life of adventure and to give back. There are many others like Chris - those who've found ways to opt out of traditional employment and create the time and income to pursue what they find meaningful. Sometimes, achieving that perfect blend of passion and income doesn't depend on shelving what you currently do. You can start small with your venture, committing little time or money, and wait to take the real plunge when you're sure it's successful. In preparing to write this book, Chris identified 1,500 individuals who have built businesses earning $50,000 or more from a modest investment (in many cases, $100 or less), and from that group he’s chosen to focus on the 50 most intriguing case studies. In nearly all cases, people with no special skills discovered aspects of their personal passions that could be monetized, and were able to restructure their lives in ways that gave them greater freedom and fulfillment. Here, finally, distilled into one easy-to-use guide, are the most valuable lessons from those who’ve learned how to turn what they do into a gateway to self-fulfillment. It’s all about finding the intersection between your "expertise" - even if you don’t consider it such - and what other people will pay for. You don’t need an MBA, a business plan or even employees. All you need is a product or service that springs from what you love to do anyway, people willing to pay, and a way to get paid. Not content to talk in generalities, Chris tells you exactly how many dollars his group of unexpected entrepreneurs required to get their projects up and running; what these individuals did in the first weeks and months to generate significant cash; some of the key mistakes they made along the way, and the crucial insights that made the business stick. Among Chris’s key principles: if you’re good at one thing, you’re probably good at something else; never teach a man to fish - sell him the fish instead; and in the battle between planning and action, action wins. In ancient times, people who were dissatisfied with their lives dreamed of finding magic lamps, buried treasure, or streets paved with gold. Today, we know that it’s up to us to change our lives. And the best part is, if we change our own life, we can help others change theirs. This remarkable book will start you on your way.

The answer is simple: come up with 10 ideas a day. It doesn't matter if they are good or bad, the key is to exercise your "idea muscle", to keep it toned, and in great shape. People say ideas are cheap and execution is everything but that is NOT true. Execution is a consequence, a subset of good, brilliant idea. And good ideas require daily work. Ideas may be easy if we are only coming up with one or two but if you open this book to any of the pages and try to produce more than three, you will feel a burn, scratch your head, and you will be sweating, and working hard. There is a turning point when you reach idea number six for the day, you still have four to go, and your mind muscle is getting a workout. By the time you list those last ideas to make it to 10 you will see for yourself what "sweating the idea muscle" means. As you practice the daily idea generation you become an idea machine. When we become idea machines we are flooded with lots of bad ideas but also with some that are very good. This happens by the sheer force of the number, because we are coming up with 3,650 ideas per year (at 10 a day). When you are inspired by an extraordinary idea, all of your thoughts break their chains, you go beyond limitations and your capacity to act expands in every direction. Forces and abilities you did not know you had come to the surface, and you realize you are capable of doing great things. As you practice with the suggested prompts in this book your ideas will get better, you will be a source of great insight for others, people will find you magnetic, and they will want to hang out with you because you have so much to offer. When you practice every day your life will transform, in no more than 180 days, because it has no other evolutionary choice. Life changes for the better when we become the source of positive, insightful, and helpful ideas. Don't believe a word I say. Instead, challenge yourself.

What if someone told you that your behavior was controlled by a powerful, invisible force? Most of us would be skeptical of such a claim--but it's largely true. Our brains are constantly transmitting and receiving signals of which we are unaware. Studies show that these constant inputs drive the great majority of our decisions about what to do next--and we become conscious of the decisions only after we start acting on them. Many may find that disturbing. But the implications for leadership are profound. In this provocative yet practical book, renowned speaking coach and communication expert Nick Morgan highlights recent research that shows how humans are programmed to respond to the nonverbal cues of others--subtle gestures, sounds, and signals--that elicit emotion. He then provides a clear, useful framework of seven "power cues" that will be essential for any leader in business, the public sector, or almost any context. You'll learn crucial skills, from measuring nonverbal signs of confidence, to the art and practice of gestures and vocal tones, to figuring out what your gut is really telling you. This concise and engaging guide will help leaders and aspiring leaders of all stripes to connect powerfully, communicate more effectively, and command influence.

New York Times bestselling author and social media expert Gary Vaynerchuk shares hard-won advice on how to connect with customers and beat the competition. A mash-up of the best elements of Crush It! and The Thank You Economy with a fresh spin, Jab, Jab, Jab, Right Hook is a blueprint to social media marketing strategies that really works. When managers and marketers outline their social media strategies, they plan for the "right hook"—their next sale or campaign that's going to knock out the competition. Even companies committed to jabbing—patiently engaging with customers to build the relationships crucial to successful social media campaigns—want to land the punch that will take down their opponent or their customer's resistance in one blow. Right hooks convert traffic to sales and easily show results. Except when they don't. Thanks to massive change and proliferation in social media platforms, the winning combination of jabs and right hooks is different now. Vaynerchuk shows that while communication is still key, context matters more than ever. It's not just about developing high-quality content, but developing high-quality content perfectly adapted to specific social media platforms and mobile devices—content tailor-made for Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter and Tumblr.

From the best-selling author of The Black Swan and one of the foremost thinkers of our time, Nassim Nicholas Taleb, a book on how some things actually benefit from disorder. In The Black Swan Taleb outlined a problem, and in Antifragile he offers a definitive solution: how to gain from disorder and chaos while being protected from fragilities and adverse events. For what Taleb calls the "antifragile" is actually beyond the robust, because it benefits from shocks, uncertainty, and stressors, just as human bones get stronger when subjected to stress and tension. The antifragile needs disorder in order to survive and flourish. Taleb stands uncertainty on its head, making it desirable, even necessary, and proposes that things be built in an antifragile manner. The antifragile is immune to prediction errors. Why is the city-state better than the nation-state, why is debt bad for you, and why is everything that is both modern and complicated bound to fail? The audiobook spans innovation by trial and error, health, biology, medicine, life decisions, politics, foreign policy, urban planning, war, personal finance, and economic systems. And throughout, in addition to the street wisdom of Fat Tony of Brooklyn, the voices and recipes of ancient wisdom, from Roman, Greek, Semitic, and medieval sources, are heard loud and clear. Extremely ambitious and multidisciplinary, Antifragile provides a blueprint for how to behave - and thrive - in a world we don't understand, and which is too uncertain for us to even try to understand and predict. Erudite and witty, Taleb’s message is revolutionary: What is not antifragile will surely perish.

The Cluetrain Manifesto began as a Web site in 1999 when the authors, who have worked variously at IBM, Sun Microsystems, the Linux Journal, and NPR, posted 95 theses about the new reality of the networked marketplace. Ten years after its original publication, their message remains more relevant than ever. For example, thesis no. 2: “Markets consist of human beings, not demographic sectors”; thesis no. 20: “Companies need to realize their markets are often laughing. At them.” The book enlarges on these themes through dozens of stories and observations about business in America and how the Internet will continue to change it all. With a new introduction and chapters by the authors, and commentary by Jake McKee, JP Rangaswami, and Dan Gillmor, this book is essential reading for anybody interested in the Internet and e-commerce, and is especially vital for businesses navigating the topography of the wired marketplace.

From the founders of the trailblazing software company 37signals, here is a different kind of business book one that explores a new reality. Today, anyone can be in business. Tools that used to be out of reach are now easily accessible. Technology that cost thousands is now just a few bucks or even free. Stuff that was impossible just a few years ago is now simple.That means anyone can start a business. And you can do it without working miserable 80-hour weeks or depleting your life savings. You can start it on the side while your day job provides all the cash flow you need. Forget about business plans, meetings, office space - you don't need them. With its straightforward language and easy-is-better approach, Rework is the perfect playbook for anyone who's ever dreamed of doing it on their own. Hardcore entrepreneurs, small-business owners, people stuck in day jobs who want to get out, and artists who don't want to starve anymore will all find valuable inspiration and guidance in these pages. It's time to rework work.

Tesla's main source of inspiration.
Roger Joseph Boscovich, a physicist, astronomer, mathematician, philosopher, diplomat, poet, theologian, Jesuit priest, and polymath, published the first edition of his famous work, Philosophiae Naturalis Theoria Redacta Ad Unicam Legem Virium In Natura Existentium (Theory Of Natural Philosophy Derived To The Single Law Of Forces Which Exist In Nature), in Vienna, in 1758, containing his atomic theory and his theory of forces. A second edition was published in 1763 in Venice

Bill Clinton's Georgetown mentor's history of the Conspiracy since the Boer War in South Africa.
TRAGEDY AND HOPE shows the years 1895-1950 as a period of transition from the world dominated by Europe in the nineteenth century to the world of three blocs in the twentieth century. With clarity, perspective, and cumulative impact, Professor Quigley examines the nature of that transition through two world wars and a worldwide economic depression. As an interpretative historian, he tries to show each event in the full complexity of its historical context. The result is a unique work, notable in several ways. It gives a picture of the world in terms of the influence of different cultures and outlooks upon each other; it shows, more completely than in any similar work, the influence of science and technology on human life; and it explains, with unprecedented clarity, how the intricate financial and commercial patterns of the West prior to 1914 influenced the development of today’s world.

Time is considered as an independent entity which cannot be reduced to the concept of matter, space or field. The point of discussion is the "time flow" conception of N A Kozyrev (1908-1983), an outstanding Russian astronomer and natural scientist. In addition to a review of the experimental studies of "the active properties of time", by both Kozyrev and modern scientists, the reader will find different interpretations of Kozyrev's views and some developments of his ideas in the fields of geophysics, astrophysics, general relativity and theoretical mechanics.

How UFO Time Engines work - Clif High

The webpage discusses the workings of UFO time engines according to N.A. Kozyrev's experiments. The LL1 engine is described as a hollow metal sphere with a pool of mercury metal inside. When activated by electrical energy, it creates a uni-polar magnetic field causing the mercury to spin at a high rate and induce "time stuff" to accumulate on its surface. The accrued time stuff is siphoned down magnetically to the radiating antennae on the bottom of the vessel, providing self-sustaining power and allowing for time travel. The environment inside UFOs is likely volatile and not suitable for humans.

The Body Electric tells the fascinating story of our bioelectric selves. Robert O. Becker, a pioneer in the filed of regeneration and its relationship to electrical currents in living things, challenges the established mechanistic understanding of the body. He found clues to the healing process in the long-discarded theory that electricity is vital to life. But as exciting as Becker's discoveries are, pointing to the day when human limbs, spinal cords, and organs may be regenerated after they have been damaged, equally fascinating is the story of Becker's struggle to do such original work. The Body Electric explores new pathways in our understanding of evolution, acupuncture, psychic phenomena, and healing.

Unique, controversial, and frequently cited, this survey offers highly detailed accounts concerning the development of ideas and theories about the nature of electricity and space (aether). Readily accessible to general readers as well as high school students, teachers, and undergraduates, it includes much information unavailable elsewhere. This single-volume edition comprises both The Classical Theories and The Modern Theories, which were originally published separately. The first volume covers the theories of classical physics from the age of the Greek philosophers to the late 19th century. The second volume chronicles discoveries that led to the advances of modern physics, focusing on special relativity, quantum theories, general relativity, matrix mechanics, and wave mechanics. Noted historian of science I. Bernard Cohen, who reviewed these books for Scientific American, observed, "I know of no other history of electricity which is as sound as Whittaker's. All those who have found stimulation from his works will read this informative and accurate history with interest and profit."

The third edition of the defining text for the graduate-level course in Electricity and Magnetism has finally arrived! It has been 37 years since the first edition and 24 since the second. The new edition addresses the changes in emphasis and applications that have occurred in the field, without any significant increase in length.

Objects are a ubiquitous presence and few of us stop and think what they mean in our lives. This is the job of philosophers and this is what Jean Baudrillard does in his book. This is required reading for followers of Baudrillard, and he is perhaps the most assessable to the General Reader. Baudrillard is most associated with Post Modernism, and this early book sets the stage for that journey to the post modern world.
We are all surrounded by objects, but how many times have we thought about what those objects represent. If we took the time to think about the symbolism, we could arrive at easy solutions. We have been so accustomed to advertising the automobile representing freedom is an easy conclusion. But what about furniture? What about chairs? What about the arrangement of furniture? Watches? Collecting objects? Baudrillard literally opens up a new world and creates the universe of objects.
It is not that the critique of a society or objects has not been done before, but Baudrillard’s approach is new. Baudrillard examines objects as signs with a smattering of Post-Marxist thought. In his analysis of objects as signs, he ushers in the Post-Modern age and world for which he would be known. Heady stuff to be sure, but is presented by Baudrillard in a readily accessible manner. He articulates his thesis in a straightforward manner, avoiding the hyper-technical terminology he used in his later writings.

Moving away from the Marxist/Freudian approaches that had concerned him earlier, Baudrillard developed in this book a theory of contemporary culture that relies on displacing economic notions of cultural production with notions of cultural expenditure.

The book begins with Sidis's discovery of the first law of physical laws: "Among the physical laws it is a general characteristic that there is reversibility in time; that is, should the whole universe trace back the various positions that bodies in it have passed through in a given interval of time, but in the reverse order to that in which these positions actually occurred, then the universe, in this imaginary case, would still obey the same laws." Recent discoveries of dark matter are predicted by him in this book, and he goes on to show that the "Big Bang" is wrong. Sidis (SIGH-dis) shows that it is far more likely the universe is eternal

In this book you will encounter rare information regarding your true identity - the conscious self in the body - and how you may break the hypnotic spell your senses and thinking have cast about you since childhood.

Do we see the world as it truly is? In The Case Against Reality, pioneering cognitive scientist Donald Hoffman says no? we see what we need in order to survive. Our visual perceptions are not a window onto reality, Hoffman shows us, but instead are interfaces constructed by natural selection. The objects we see around us are not unlike the file icons on our computer desktops: while shaped like a small folder on our screens, the files themselves are made of a series of ones and zeros - too complex for most of us to understand. In a similar way, Hoffman argues, evolution has shaped our perceptions into simplistic illusions to help us navigate the world around us. Yet now these illusions can be manipulated by advertising and design.
Drawing on thirty years of Hoffman's own influential research, as well as evolutionary biology, game theory, neuroscience, and philosophy, The Case Against Reality makes the mind-bending yet utterly convincing case that the world is nothing like what we see through our eyes.

At the height of the Cold War, JFK risked committing the greatest crime in human history: starting a nuclear war. Horrified by the specter of nuclear annihilation, Kennedy gradually turned away from his long-held Cold Warrior beliefs and toward a policy of lasting peace. But to the military and intelligence agencies in the United States, who were committed to winning the Cold War at any cost, Kennedy’s change of heart was a direct threat to their power and influence. Once these dark “Unspeakable” forces recognized that Kennedy’s interests were in direct opposition to their own, they tagged him as a dangerous traitor, plotted his assassination, and orchestrated the subsequent cover-up.

2020 saw a spike in deaths in America, smaller than you might imagine during a pandemic, some of which could be attributed to COVID and to initial treatment strategies that were not effective. But then, in 2021, the stats people expected went off the rails. The CEO of the OneAmerica insurance company publicly disclosed that during the third and fourth quarters of 2021, death in people of working age (18–64) was 40 percent higher than it was before the pandemic. Significantly, the majority of the deaths were not attributed to COVID. A 40 percent increase in deaths is literally earth-shaking. Even a 10 percent increase in excess deaths would have been a 1-in-200-year event. But this was 40 percent. And therein lies a story—a story that starts with obvious questions: - What has caused this historic spike in deaths among younger people? - What has caused the shift from old people, who are expected to die, to younger people, who are expected to keep living?

The Tavistock Institute, in Sussex, England, describes itself as a nonprofit charity that applies social science to contemporary issues and problems. But this book posits that it is the world’s center for mass brainwashing and social engineering activities. It grew from a somewhat crude beginning at Wellington House into a sophisticated organization that was to shape the destiny of the entire planet, and in the process, change the paradigm of modern society. In this eye-opening work, both the Tavistock network and the methods of brainwashing and psychological warfare are uncovered.

A seminal and controversial figure in the history of political thought and public relations, Edward Bernays (1891–1995), pioneered the scientific technique of shaping and manipulating public opinion, which he famously dubbed “engineering of consent.” During World War I, he was an integral part of the U.S. Committee on Public Information (CPI), a powerful propaganda apparatus that was mobilized to package, advertise and sell the war to the American people as one that would “Make the World Safe for Democracy.” The CPI would become the blueprint in which marketing strategies for future wars would be based upon.
Bernays applied the techniques he had learned in the CPI and, incorporating some of the ideas of Walter Lipmann, as well as his uncle, Sigmund Freud, became an outspoken proponent of propaganda as a tool for democratic and corporate manipulation of the population. His 1928 bombshell Propaganda lays out his eerily prescient vision for using propaganda to regiment the collective mind in a variety of areas, including government, politics, art, science and education. To read this book today is to frightfully comprehend what our contemporary institutions of government and business have become in regards to organized manipulation of the masses.

Undressing the Bible: in Hebrew, the Old Testament speaks for itself, explicitly and transparently. It tells of mysterious beings, special and powerful ones, that appeared on Earth.
Aliens?
Former earthlings?
Superior civilizations, that have always been present on our planet?
Creators, manipulators, geneticists. Aviators, warriors, despotic rulers. And scientists, possessing very advanced knowledge, special weapons and science-fiction-like technologies.
Once naked, the Bible is very different from how it has always been told to us: it does not contain any spiritual, omnipotent and omniscient God, no eternity. No apples and no creeping, tempting, serpents. No winged angels. Not even the Red Sea: the people of the Exodus just wade through a simple reed bed.
Writer and journalist Giorgio Cattaneo sits down with Italy's most renowned biblical translator for his first long interview about his life's work for the English audience. A decade long official Bible translator for the Church and lifelong researcher of ancient myths and tales, Mauro Bilglino is a unicum in his field of expertise and research. A fine connoisseur of dead languages, from ancient Greek to Hebrew and medieval Latin, he focused his attention and efforts on the accurate translating of the bible.
The encounter with Mauro Biglino and his work - the journalist writes - is profoundly healthy, stimulating and inevitably destabilizing: it forces us to reconsider the solidity of the awareness that nourishes many of our common beliefs. And it is a testament to the courage that is needed, today more than ever, to claim the full dignity of free research.

Most people have heard of Jesus Christ, considered the Messiah by Christians, and who lived 2000 years ago. But very few have ever heard of Sabbatai Zevi, who declared himself the Messiah in 1666. By proclaiming redemption was available through acts of sin, he amassed a following of over one million passionate believers, about half the world's Jewish population during the 17th century.Although many Rabbis at the time considered him a heretic, his fame extended far and wide. Sabbatai's adherents planned to abolish many ritualistic observances, because, according to the Talmud, holy obligations would no longer apply in the Messianic time. Fasting days became days of feasting and rejoicing. Sabbateans encouraged and practiced sexual promiscuity, adultery, incest and religious orgies.After Sabbati Zevi's death in 1676, his Kabbalist successor, Jacob Frank, expanded upon and continued his occult philosophy. Frankism, a religious movement of the 18th and 19th centuries, centered on his leadership, and his claim to be the reincarnation of the Messiah Sabbatai Zevi. He, like Zevi, would perform "strange acts" that violated traditional religious taboos, such as eating fats forbidden by Jewish dietary laws, ritual sacrifice, and promoting orgies and sexual immorality. He often slept with his followers, as well as his own daughter, while preaching a doctrine that the best way to imitate God was to cross every boundary, transgress every taboo, and mix the sacred with the profane. Hebrew University of Jerusalem Professor Gershom Scholem called Jacob Frank, "one of the most frightening phenomena in the whole of Jewish history".Jacob Frank would eventually enter into an alliance formed by Adam Weishaupt and Meyer Amshel Rothschild called the Order of the Illuminati. The objectives of this organization was to undermine the world's religions and power structures, in an effort to usher in a utopian era of global communism, which they would covertly rule by their hidden hand: the New World Order. Using secret societies, such as the Freemasons, their agenda has played itself out over the centuries, staying true to the script. The Illuminati handle opposition by a near total control of the world's media, academic opinion leaders, politicians and financiers. Still considered nothing more than theory to many, more and more people wake up each day to the possibility that this is not just a theory, but a terrifying Satanic conspiracy.

This is the first English translation of this revolutionary essay by Vladimir I. Vernadsky, the great Russian-Ukrainian biogeochemist. It was first published in 1930 in French in the Revue générale des sciences pures et appliquées. In it, Vernadsky makes a powerful and provocative argument for the need to develop what he calls “a new physics,” something he felt was clearly necessitated by the implications of the groundbreaking work of Louis Pasteur among few others, but also something that was required to free science from the long-lasting effects of the work of Isaac Newton, most notably.
For hundreds of years, science had developed in a direction which became increasingly detached from the breakthroughs made in the study of life and the natural sciences, detached even from human life itself, and committed reductionists and small-minded scientists were resolved to the fact that ultimately all would be reduced to “the old physics.” The scientific revolution of Einstein was a step in the right direction, but here Vernadsky insists that there is more progress to be made. He makes a bold call for a new physics, taking into account, and fundamentally based upon, the striking anomalies of life and human life.

Using an inspired combination of geometric logic and metaphors from familiar human experience, Bucky invites readers to join him on a trip through a four-dimensional Universe, where concepts as diverse as entropy, Einstein's relativity equations, and the meaning of existence become clear, understandable, and immediately involving. In his own words: "Dare to be naive... It is one of our most exciting discoveries that local discovery leads to a complex of further discoveries." Here are three key examples or concepts from "Synergetics":

Tensegrity

Tensegrity, or tensional integrity, refers to structural systems that use a combination of tension and compression components. The simplest example of this is the "tensegrity triangle", where three struts are held in position not by touching one another but by tensioned wires. These systems are stable and flexible. Tensegrity structures are pervasive in natural systems, from the cellular level up to larger biological and even cosmological scales.

Vector Equilibrium (VE)

The Vector Equilibrium, often referred to by Fuller as the "VE", is a geometric form that he saw as the central form in his synergetic geometry. It’s essentially a cuboctahedron. Fuller noted that the VE is the only geometric form wherein all the vectors (lines from the center to the vertices) are of equal length and angular relationship. Because of this, it’s seen as a condition of absolute equilibrium, where the forces of push and pull are balanced.

Closest Packing of Spheres

Fuller was fascinated by how spheres could be packed together in the tightest possible configuration, a concept he often linked to how nature organizes systems. For example, when you stack oranges in a grocery store, they form a hexagonal pattern, and the spheres (oranges) are in closest-packed arrangement. Fuller related this principle to atomic structures and even cosmic organization.

To prepare Americans and freedom loving people everywhere for our current global wartime reality that few understand, here comes The Citizen's Guide to Fifth Generation Warfare (CG5GW) by Lieutenant General, U.S. Army (Retired) Michael T. Flynn and Sergeant, U.S. Army (Retired) Boone Cutler. General Flynn rose to the highest levels of the intelligence community and served as the National Security Advisor to the 45th POTUS. Sergeant Boone Cutler ran the ground game as a wartime Psychological Operations team sergeant in the United States Army. Together, these two combat veterans put their combined experience and expertise into an illuminating fifth-generation warfare information series called The Citizen's Guide to Fifth Generation Warfare. Introduction to 5GW is the first session of the multipart series. The series, complete with easy-to-understand diagrams, is written for all of humanity in every freedom loving country.

Vladimir I. Vernadsky (1863-1945) was a Russian and Ukrainian mineralogist and geochemist who is best known for his work on the biosphere and the noosphere concepts. His ideas have profoundly influenced various scientific fields, from geology to biology and even philosophy. Here's the summary of his one of his concepts:

Biosphere :

  • Vernadsky defined the biosphere as the thin layer of Earth where life exists, encompassing all living organisms and the parts of the Earth where they interact. This includes the depths of the oceans to the upper layers of the atmosphere.
  • He posited that life plays a critical role in transforming the Earth's environment. In this view, living organisms are not just passive inhabitants of the planet, but active agents of change. This idea contrasts with more traditional views that saw life as simply adapting to pre-existing environmental conditions.
  • One example of this transformative power is the oxygen-rich atmosphere, which was created by photosynthesizing organisms over billions of years.

It's worth noting that Vernadsky's ideas were formulated in a period when the world was experiencing rapid technological changes and were before the advent of concerns about global challenges like climate change. Today, his ideas can be seen in a new light, as we recognize the significant impact human activity has on the planet, from the changing climate to the alteration of biogeochemical cycles. Overall, Vernadsky's thesis about the biosphere and the noosphere offers a holistic perspective on the evolution of the Earth and humanity's role in that evolution. It emphasizes the profound interconnectedness between life, the environment, and human cognition and culture.

His ideas have profoundly influenced various scientific fields, from geology to biology and even philosophy. Here's the summary of his one of his concepts:

Noosphere :

  • The concept of the noosphere can be seen as the next evolutionary stage following the biosphere. While the biosphere represents the realm of life, the noosphere represents the realm of human thought.
  • Vernadsky believed that, just as life transformed the Earth through the biosphere, human thought and collective intelligence would transform the planet in the era of the noosphere. This transformation would be characterized by the dominance of cultural evolution over biological evolution.
  • In this paradigm, human knowledge, technology, and cultural developments would become the primary drivers of change on the planet, influencing its future direction.
  • The term "noosphere" is derived from the Greek word “nous” meaning "mind" or "intellect" and "sphaira" meaning "sphere." So, the noosphere can be thought of as the "sphere of human thought."

A close analysis of the architecture of the stupa―a Buddhist symbolic form that is found throughout South, Southeast, and East Asia. The author, who trained as an architect, examines both the physical and metaphysical levels of these buildings, which derive their meaning and significance from Buddhist and Brahmanist influences.

Building on his extensive research into the sacred symbols and creation myths of the Dogon of Africa and those of ancient Egypt, India, and Tibet, Laird Scranton investigates the myths, symbols, and traditions of prehistoric China, providing further evidence that the cosmology of all ancient cultures arose from a single now-lost source.

It is at the same time a history of language, a guide to foreign tongues, and a method for learning them. It shows, through basic vocabularies, family resemblances of languages―Teutonic, Romance, Greek―helpful tricks of translation, key combinations of roots and phonetic patterns. It presents by common-sense methods the most helpful approach to the mastery of many languages; it condenses vocabulary to a minimum of essential words; it simplifies grammar in an entirely new way; and it teaches a languages as it is actually used in everyday life.
But this book is more than a guide to foreign languages; it goes deep into the roots of all knowledge as it explores the history of speech. It lights up the dim pathways of prehistory and unfolds the story of the slow growth of human expression from the most primitive signs and sounds to the elaborate variations of the highest cultures. Without language no knowledge would be possible; here we see how language is at once the source and the reservoir of all we know.

Taking only the most elementary knowledge for granted, Lancelot Hogben leads readers of this famous book through the whole course from simple arithmetic to calculus. His illuminating explanation is addressed to the person who wants to understand the place of mathematics in modern civilization but who has been intimidated by its supposed difficulty. Mathematics is the language of size, shape, and order―a language Hogben shows one can both master and enjoy.

A complete manual for the study and practice of Raja Yoga, the path of concentration and meditation. These timeless teachings is a treasure to be read and referred to again and again by seekers treading the spiritual path. The classic Sutras, at least 4,000 years old, cover the yogic teachings on ethics, meditation, and physical postures, and provide directions for dealing with situations in daily life. The Sutras are presented here in the purest form, with the original Sanskrit and with translation, transliteration, and commentary by Sri Swami Satchidananda, one of the most respected and revered contemporary Yoga masters. Sri Swamiji offers practical advice based on his own experience for mastering the mind and achieving physical, mental and emotional harmony.

William Strauss and Neil Howe will change the way you see the world - and your place in it. With blazing originality, The Fourth Turning illuminates the past, explains the present, and reimagines the future. Most remarkably, it offers an utterly persuasive prophecy about how America’s past will predict its future.

Strauss and Howe base this vision on a provocative theory of American history. The authors look back 500 years and uncover a distinct pattern: Modern history moves in cycles, each one lasting about the length of a long human life, each composed of four eras - or "turnings" - that last about 20 years and that always arrive in the same order. In The Fourth Turning, the authors illustrate these cycles using a brilliant analysis of the post-World War II period.

First comes a High, a period of confident expansion as a new order takes root after the old has been swept away. Next comes an Awakening, a time of spiritual exploration and rebellion against the now-established order. Then comes an Unraveling, an increasingly troubled era in which individualism triumphs over crumbling institutions. Last comes a Crisis - the Fourth Turning - when society passes through a great and perilous gate in history. Together, the four turnings comprise history's seasonal rhythm of growth, maturation, entropy, and rebirth.

4th Turning

Excess Deaths & Why RFK Jr. Can Win The Democratic Presidential Race - Ed Dowd | Part 1 of 2 - 06-21-2023

All original edition. Nothing added, nothing removed. This book traces the history of the ancient Khazar Empire, a major but almost forgotten power in Eastern Europe, which in the Dark Ages became converted to Judaism. Khazaria was finally wiped out by the forces of Genghis Khan, but evidence indicates that the Khazars themselves migrated to Poland and formed the cradle of Western Jewry. To the general reader the Khazars, who flourished from the 7th to 11th century, may seem infinitely remote today. Yet they have a close and unexpected bearing on our world, which emerges as Koestler recounts the fascinating history of the ancient Khazar Empire.

At about the time that Charlemagne was Emperor in the West. The Khazars' sway extended from the Black Sea to the Caspian, from the Caucasus to the Volga, and they were instrumental in stopping the Muslim onslaught against Byzantium, the eastern jaw of the gigantic pincer movement that in the West swept across northern Africa and into Spain.Thereafter the Khazars found themselves in a precarious position between the two major world powers: the Eastern Roman Empire in Byzantium and the triumphant followers of Mohammed.As Koestler points out, the Khazars were the Third World of their day. They chose a surprising method of resisting both the Western pressure to become Christian and the Eastern to adopt Islam. Rejecting both, they converted to Judaism. Mr. Koestler speculates about the ultimate faith of the Khazars and their impact on the racial composition and social heritage of modern Jewry.

Few people noticed the secret codewords used by our astronauts to describe the moon. Until now, few knew about the strange moving lights they reported.
George H. Leonard, former NASA scientist, fought through the official veil of secrecy and studied thousands of NASA photographs, spoke candidly with dozens of NASA officials, and listened to hours and hours of astronauts' tapes.
Here, Leonard presents the stunning and inescapable evidence discovered during his in-depth investigation:

  • Immense mechanical rigs, some over a mile long, working the lunar surface.
  • Strange geometric ground markings and symbols.
  • Lunar constructions several times higher than anything built on Earth.
  • Vehicles, tracks, towers, pipes, conduits, and conveyor belts running in and across moon craters.
Somebody else is indeed on the Moon, and engaged in activities on a massive scale. Our space agencies, and many of the world's top scientists, have known for years that there is intelligent life on the moon.

The article delves into the history of the Khazars, a polity in the Northern Caucasus that existed from the mid-seventh century until about 970 CE. Contrary to popular belief, the term "Khazars" is misleading as it was a multiethnic entity, and it's uncertain which specific group adopted Judaism. The Khazars first emerged in the seventh century, defeating the Bulgars, which led to the Bulgars' dispersion to various regions. The Khazar Empire was established through the expulsion of the Bulgars and was multiethnic in nature. The language spoken by the Khazars is debated, with some suggesting Turkic origins and others pointing to Slavic. The Khazars had several cities and fortresses, with significant archaeological findings. The Khazars had interactions with various empires, including wars with the Arabs and alliances with Byzantine emperors. By the mid-10th century, the Khazar capital of Itil was destroyed by the Russians. The article concludes that much of what is known about the Khazars is based on limited sources.

In The Science of the Dogon, Laird Scranton demonstrated that the cosmological structure described in the myths and drawings of the Dogon runs parallel to modern science--atomic theory, quantum theory, and string theory--their drawings often taking the same form as accurate scientific diagrams that relate to the formation of matter.

Sacred Symbols of the Dogon uses these parallels as the starting point for a new interpretation of the Egyptian hieroglyphic language. By substituting Dogon cosmological drawings for equivalent glyph-shapes in Egyptian words, a new way of reading and interpreting the Egyptian hieroglyphs emerges. Scranton shows how each hieroglyph constitutes an entire concept, and that their meanings are scientific in nature.

The Dogon people of Mali, West Africa, are famous for their unique art and advanced cosmology. The Dogon’s creation story describes how the one true god, Amma, created all the matter of the universe. Interestingly, the myths that depict his creative efforts bear a striking resemblance to the modern scientific definitions of matter, beginning with the atom and continuing all the way to the vibrating threads of string theory. Furthermore, many of the Dogon words, symbols, and rituals used to describe the structure of matter are quite similar to those found in the myths of ancient Egypt and in the daily rituals of Judaism. For example, the modern scientific depiction of the informed universe as a black hole is identical to Amma’s Egg of the Dogon and the Egyptian Benben Stone.

The Science of the Dogon offers a case-by-case comparison of Dogon descriptions and drawings to corresponding scientific definitions and diagrams from authors like Stephen Hawking and Brian Greene, then extends this analysis to the counterparts of these symbols in both the ancient Egyptian and Hebrew religions. What is ultimately revealed is the scientific basis for the language of the Egyptian hieroglyphs, which was deliberately encoded to prevent the knowledge of these concepts from falling into the hands of all but the highest members of the Egyptian priesthood.

Anthony C. Yu’s translation of The Journey to the West,initially published in 1983, introduced English-speaking audiences to the classic Chinese novel in its entirety for the first time. Written in the sixteenth century, The Journey to the West tells the story of the fourteen-year pilgrimage of the monk Xuanzang, one of China’s most famous religious heroes, and his three supernatural disciples, in search of Buddhist scriptures. Throughout his journey, Xuanzang fights demons who wish to eat him, communes with spirits, and traverses a land riddled with a multitude of obstacles, both real and fantastical. An adventure rich with danger and excitement, this seminal work of the Chinese literary canonis by turns allegory, satire, and fantasy.

With over a hundred chapters written in both prose and poetry, The Journey to the West has always been a complicated and difficult text to render in English while preserving the lyricism of its language and the content of its plot. But Yu has successfully taken on the task, and in this new edition he has made his translations even more accurate and accessible. The explanatory notes are updated and augmented, and Yu has added new material to his introduction, based on his original research as well as on the newest literary criticism and scholarship on Chinese religious traditions. He has also modernized the transliterations included in each volume, using the now-standard Hanyu Pinyin romanization system. Perhaps most important, Yu has made changes to the translation itself in order to make it as precise as possible.

One of the great works of Chinese literature, The Journey to the West is not only invaluable to scholars of Eastern religion and literature, but, in Yu’s elegant rendering, also a delight for any reader.

The Oera Linda Book is a 19th-century translation by Dr. Ottema and WIlliam R. Sandbach of an old manuscript written in the Old Frisian language that records historical, mythological, and religious themes of remote antiquity, compiled between 2194 BC and AD 803.

  • The Oera Linda book challenges traditional views of pre-Christian societies.
  • Christianization is likened to a "great reset" that erased previous civilizations.
  • The Fryan language provides insights into the beliefs and values of the Fryan people.
  • The cyclical nature of time is emphasized, suggesting patterns in history.
  • The importance of identity and understanding one's roots is highlighted.
  • The Oera Linda book offers wisdom and insights into several European languages.

The Oera Linda book offers a fresh perspective on our history, challenging the notion that pre-Christian societies were uncivilized. It suggests that the Christianization of societies was a form of "great reset," erasing and demonizing what existed before. The Oera Linda writings hint at an advanced civilization with its own laws, writing, and societal structures. Jan Ott's translation from the Fryan language provides insights into the beliefs and values of the Fryan people. The text also touches upon the guilt many feel today, even if they aren't religious, about issues like climate change and historical slavery. It criticizes the way science is sometimes treated like a religion, with scientists acting as its preachers. The cyclical nature of time is emphasized, suggesting that understanding history requires recognizing patterns and cycles. Christianity is portrayed as one of the most significant resets in history, with sects fighting and erasing each other's scriptures. The importance of identity is highlighted, with a focus on the Fryans, a tribe that faced challenges from another tribe from Finland. This other tribe had a different moral compass, leading to conflicts and eventual assimilation. The text suggests that the true history of the Fryans and their values might have been distorted by subsequent Christian narratives. The Oera Linda book is seen as a source of wisdom, shedding light on the origins of several European languages and offering insights into values like freedom, truth, and justice.

The Talmud is one of the most important holy books of the Hebrew religion and of the world. No English translation of the book existed until the author presented this work. To this day, very little of the actual text seems available in English -- although we find many interpretive commentaries on what it is supposed to mean. The Talmud has a reputation for being long and difficult to digest, but Polano has taken what he believes to be the best material and put it into extremely readable form. As far as holy books of the world are concerned, it is on par with The Koran, The Bhagavad-Gita and, of course, The Bible, in importance. This clearly written edition will allow many to experience The Talmud who may have otherwise not had the chance.

This five-volume set is the only complete English rendering of The Zohar, the fundamental rabbinic work on Jewish mysticism that has fascinated readers for more than seven centuries. In addition to being the primary reference text for kabbalistic studies, this magnificent work is arranged in the form of a commentary on the Bible, bringing to the surface the deeper meanings behind the commandments and biblical narrative. As The Zohar itself proclaims: Woe unto those who see in the Law nothing but simple narratives and ordinary words .... Every word of the Law contains an elevated sense and a sublime mystery .... The narratives of the Law are but the raiment Thin which it is swathed.

Twenty-one years ago, at a friend's request, a Massachusetts professor sketched out a blueprint for nonviolent resistance to repressive regimes. It would go on to be translated, photocopied, and handed from one activist to another, traveling from country to country across the globe: from Iran to Venezuela―where both countries consider Gene Sharp to be an enemy of the state―to Serbia; Afghanistan; Vietnam; the former Soviet Union; China; Nepal; and, more recently and notably, Tunisia, Egypt, Yemen, Libya, and Syria, where it has served as a guiding light of the Arab Spring.

This short, pithy, inspiring, and extraordinarily clear guide to overthrowing a dictatorship by nonviolent means lists 198 specific methods to consider, depending on the circumstances: sit-ins, popular nonobedience, selective strikes, withdrawal of bank deposits, revenue refusal, walkouts, silence, and hunger strikes. From Dictatorship to Democracy is the remarkable work that has made the little-known Sharp into the world's most effective and sought-after analyst of resistance to authoritarian regimes.

Bill Cooper, former United States Naval Intelligence Briefing Team member, reveals information that remains hidden from the public eye. This information has been kept in topsecret government files since the 1940s. His audiences hear the truth unfold as he writes about the assassination of John F. Kennedy, the war on drugs, the secret government, and UFOs. Bill is a lucid, rational, and powerful speaker whose intent is to inform and to empower his audience. Standing room only is normal. His presentation and information transcend partisan affiliations as he clearly addresses issues in a way that has a striking impact on listeners of all backgrounds and interests. He has spoken to many groups throughout the United States and has appeared regularly on many radio talk shows and on television. In 1988 Bill decided to "talk" due to events then taking place worldwide, events that he had seen plans for back in the early 1970s. Bill correctly predicted the lowering of the Iron Curtain, the fall of the Berlin Wall, and the invasion of Panama. All Bill's predictions were on record well before the events occurred. Bill is not a psychic. His information comes from top secret documents that he read while with the Intelligence Briefing Team and from over seventeen years of research.

The argument that the 16th Amendment (which concerns the federal income tax) was not properly ratified and thus is invalid has been a topic of debate among some tax protesters and scholars. One of the individuals associated with this theory is Bill Benson, who asserted that the 16th Amendment was fraudulently ratified. Here's a brief overview of the argument: 1. Research and Documentation: Bill Benson, along with another individual named M.J. "Red" Beckman, wrote a two-volume work called "The Law That Never Was" in the 1980s. This work was a product of Benson's extensive travels to various state archives to examine the original ratification documents related to the 16th Amendment. 2. Claims of Irregularities: In his work, Benson presented evidence that claimed many of the states either did not ratify the 16th Amendment properly or made mistakes in their resolutions. Some of these alleged irregularities included misspellings, incorrect wording, and other deviations from the proposed amendment. 3. Philander Knox's Role: In 1913, Philander Knox, who was the U.S. Secretary of State at the time, declared that the 16th Amendment had been ratified by the necessary three-fourths of the states. Benson's contention is that Knox was aware of the various discrepancies and irregularities in the ratification process but chose to fraudulently declare the amendment ratified anyway. 4. Legal Challenges and Court Rulings: Over the years, some tax protesters have used Benson's findings to challenge the legality of the income tax. However, these challenges have been consistently rejected by the courts. In fact, several courts have addressed Benson's research and arguments directly and found them to be without legal merit. The courts have repeatedly upheld the validity of the 16th Amendment. 5. Counterarguments: Critics of Benson's theory argue that even if there were minor discrepancies in the wording or format of the ratification documents, they do not invalidate the overarching intent of the states to ratify the amendment. Additionally, they assert that there's no substantive evidence that Knox acted fraudulently. It's worth noting that despite the popularity of this theory among certain groups, the legal consensus in the U.S. is that the 16th Amendment was validly ratified and is a legitimate part of the U.S. Constitution. Those who refuse to pay income taxes based on this theory have faced legal penalties.

The article delves into the evolution of the concept of the ether in physics. Historically, the ether was postulated to explain the propagation of light, with figures like Newton and Huygens suggesting its existence. By the late 19th century, Maxwell's electromagnetic theory linked light's propagation to the ether, a theory experimentally validated by Hertz in 1888. Lorentz expanded on this, focusing on wave transmission in moving media. The article contrasts the English approach, which sought tangible models, with the phenomenological view, which aimed for a descriptive approach without specific hypotheses. The piece also touches on various mechanical theories and models proposed over the years, emphasizing the challenges in defining the ether's properties and its evolving nature in scientific discourse.
