Every day, people are receiving readings from psychic mediums in order to hear from their deceased loved ones.  But is this helpful for the grieving?

At the Windbridge Institute, we have just launched a crowdfunding initiative to support a randomized clinical trial I designed to look at this issue specifically.

The proposed project is titled the Bereavement and Mediumship (or BAM) Study.

The chemtrail project may be part of a push to toxify the planet's ecosystem and then have bioengineering companies like Monsanto "rescue" us with engineered life resistant to the toxins thus cementing corporate control of the planet's biomass - that includes forestry as well. They are already seeking patents for aluminum resistant crops and trees. Aluminum is one of the biggest components of chemtrails and is damaging forests and plant life world wide. Welcome to the nightmare of a completely corporatized world.

Here it is late March, and we still have not seen the entryway security camera footage at the Sandy Hook elementary school. We are hearing all sorts of things about Lanza that may or may not be actually true. Supplying this camera footage would go very far in silencing at least one of the persistent conspiracy theories surrounding Sandy Hook namely that there appear to have been multiple shooters and that Lanza could not have physically carried enough weaponry to accomplish what had been done in a certain amount of time. The entryway footage and it would not be morbid or grotesque. It should show Lanza festooned with weaponry buzzing himself in to the school. We saw all sorts of footage far more chilling from the Columbine massacre.
To me the far stranger aspect of Sandy Hook remains the overt satanic symbols flashed by some of the "grieving" parents especially in the memorials. The American school of Satan has a headquarters in Newtown. Perhaps the imagery has nothing to do with a planned spectacle and was just what such parents would do in these situations anyway. The whole affair remains tinged with unanswered questions some of which should be quite easy to answer. The mainstream media should be clamoring for the security camera footage. Perhaps it will be forthcoming, but 3 months on it should be in the public domain.

"WHERE IS THE SURVEILLANCE CAMERA FOOTAGE? The school had a new security system for their front door with video surveillance cameras and would alert the authorities of a break-in. It was a fully closed-in campus that even parents would need to show a photo ID at the front door and then be buzzed into the school after an administrator identified the person. According to the official story, Lanza shot through the glass door to get into the school. Why have we not seen any of this damage or the surveillance video of this? We have seen a lot of graphics and diagrams and aerial footage of the school, but no real photography of the damage. We saw many graphics and diagrams of Sandy Hook Elementary like we did after the Osama bin Laden raid on May 1, 2011."

I've been over at Michael Prescott's blog reading Let George Do It

http://michaelprescott.typepad.com/micha...

and this was my reply

Michael Prescott "If a hypnotist, bypassing the conscious mind, tells George that he is drunk, George will make his human host act drunk, even if the person hasn't touched a drop. It's my contention that George is the library angel."

George meaning Earth Worker conveys the image of a sort of stolid unimaginative farmhand or beast of burden and I suggest Michael by a curious coincidence the esoteric mystical take on who or what George is corresponds to precisely that description.

In Sufism or Esoteric Christianity for instance George's often styled a donkey.

In Taoism an ox.

Amongst the lovers of Sophia such as Socrates and Plato a horse.

In Hinduism an elephant.

In other words George is supposedly the body viewed as an animal or more accurately a whole zoo or even ecosystem of highly adapted animals possessed of their own particular forms of genius but with a natural tendency to cooperate for the mutual benefit of all the parts which gradually becomes disrupted by society's insistence on convincing the narrational mind or ego to view itself not at best as a helpful adviser or consiglieri intended to act as a cultural interface but as the entire organism itself.

This's supposedly why things like yoga and tai chi arose to simultaneously rewaken the body and its subcomponents to their true nature/purpose as well as to reacquaint the mind/ego to its true status as being of crucial but ultimately far more limited importance which's also supposedly why so much store's placed in so many mystical systems on observing bodily and mental stillness since this's supposedly the best way to witness and verify if there's any evidence for any of this scenario being even remotely true.

The curse and blessing of the body's supposedly its incredible responsiveness to suggestion via the mind hence the great importance placed in traditional societies on storytellers such as poets as shapers of society for good or bad as well as the importance placed on the power of stories in all mystical traditions.

This's supposedly the mechanism behind the nocebo or pointing the bone type effects in say voodoo or the placebo effect.

This's also supposedly the reason why the placebo effect works even when patients're openly told they're receiving a sugar pill because the body's being told a story via the mind concerning the possibility of being healed even when you take inert substances.

But supposedly the story doesn't even have to be delivered via your own mind because so long as some other mind's reception of the story's resulted in its own body's awareness of it then even as that other body's remotely praying for your well being your body will sense this and respond by attempting to join in with the healing story.

Thanks to observing how our hands can grab objects in midair before our minds've even had a chance to notice the objects've been dislodged Modern psychology's coined the phrase the zombie to describe the body's apparent capacity to behave as if it has independent intelligence.

But according to various mystical systems the body isn't so much a zombie as a sleeping prince or princess which can be gradually or abruptly reawoken and one sign of it's stirring is the manifestation of strange phenomena like library angels.

A sign it's becoming even more awake's supposedly the spontaneous manifestation of psychic powers though this's also supposedly the stage where the narrator or ego makes a particular effort to reassert itself. This's also the stage when the narrators/egos of others may also start manifesting either to put a stop to things developing any further aka the poison apple manoeuver or to harness such capacities to agendas of their own aka stealing the lamp.

In fact that's supposedly what the genie really is the infinite possibilities which gradually become available to the body when the narrational mind or ego finally abandons all hope fear or doubt and gradually quietens down in submission to the plenuum of silence.

And Michael there's you thinking all this time you were just some writer but all along you've been a creator and destroyer of worlds.

I've been over at the Spectator reading Hugo Rifkind's How Bitcoin Could Destroy the State (and Perhaps Make Me a Bit of Money)

http://www.spectator.co.uk/columnists/hu...

where SWIM@mailinator.com made this comment "You all know what MP3's did to the music industry around 15 years ago? Bitcoin is going to do the same thing to the financial industry."

And this was my response

Even if it isn't Bitcoin sooner or later and contrary to what they think the megacorporations megastates etc'll be cut out the loop and out of existence by a truly democratic trading algorithm which'll facilitate the exchange of goods labour etc through the whole world modelled on the way bodies' cells and organs cooperate to achieve a healthy organism

an observation though which should be qualified by my earlier response to the actual Rifkind piece

People don't seem to realise it yet but we seem to be at the same stage the CIA were the day before the Berlin Wall fell - clueless what's about to happen.

So not only could we be watching Capitalism going the same way as Communism but also both national sovereignity/statehood and the New World Order's dream/nightmare of a unified one world state which's probably why so many parties're currently desperately scrabbling to reposition and limit the effect of the internet in the hope of avoiding such developments.

Just bopping around Youtube this morning and stumbled upon an excellent episode of Ghost Adventures that I first watched on TV a couple of weeks ago. This is the crew's most recent(third) visit to the infamously haunted Goldfield Hotel in Nevada, and as usual it did not disappoint. There is one particularly compelling scene of kinetic activity caught on film that was taken to a lab and further examined by some film experts who could detect no fakery. There are also some very good EVP's. The juvenile bearing of this ghost hunting crew can be offputting to newcomers to their show, but their testosterone boyishness works to their advantage as ghosts in search of energy sources with which to fuel manifestion find these guys very appetizing indeed. They can fire up a haunted structure better than most crews and get ghostly reactions where other more staid crews have not got much.

This probably won't stay up on Youtube much longer as the piracy patrol finds it, so watch it while you can.

I've been over at Wired reading Brandon Keim's Something Other Than Adaptation Could Be Driving Evolution and this was my response

Brandon part of the problem may be we tend to think of evolution in terms of individuals but a close look at individuals reveals they themselves may actually be composites or hives composed of still other smaller animals.

For instance from a certain point of view we ourselves could be said to be composed of a wide range of very highly adopted organisms such as the hands the fingers the limbs the joints the heart the chambers of the heart the heart cells ditto the liver and its components the brain and its components the skeleton and its components etc.

And even though he concentrates on the genes this in fact's one of the implications in Richard Dawkins' Selfish Gene idea and may even explain why our hands for instance're capable of so-called reflexes which enable them to behave as if they have sufficient independent intelligence to pluck objects out thin air before our minds've even noticed our elbows've 'inadvertently' knocked the damned things off. It also may explain why all through nature cells seemingly volunteer to die for the greater good in order for things like fingers to emerge during the foetal stage and maybe even why deformities result when they 'refuse'.

If this's true of our bodies maybe it's true of ourselves as subcomponents of species and those species as subcomponents of the entire ecosphere in which case evolution becomes less about supposed individuals supposedly struggling to prevail over each other and more about conceptual blindness resulting in the failure to perceive cooperative behaviour which in turn might explain the emergence of behaviour where species including humans adopt family members from thoroughly unrelated species but also why species including humans've demonstrated a preparedness to dive on grenades or risk drowning in order to protect or rescue not just fellow species' or adopted species' members but members of unrelated species with which they have no prior relationship.

Over at the BBC I'm reading Google Gets Ungoogleable Off Sweden's New Word List.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-2...

Apparently Google've banned a new Swedish word 'ogooglebar' which in popular Swedish usage mean a thing which can't be found with search engines because they insist it should only apply to Google's search engine so the Language Council of Sweden've simply tossed it.

Now the cheek of this's Google aren't the first to commercially use that name in that form and they themselves pinched it from the mathematical/philosophical term googol meaning the number 1 followed by 100 zeroes and one wonders how they'd've felt if Edward Kasner and his nephew Milton Sirotta who coined the term'd duffed them up before their enterprise'd even gotten underway in much the same way they're now throwing their weight round with the speakers of the Swedish language.

For that matter I bet Larry Page and Sergey Brin as students vacuumed their own floors before they hit the Google jackpot and whenever they did they'd've almost certainly've called it hoovering even though they'd've equally as certainly've been using any kind of vacuum cleaner EXCEPT Hoover in which case how much's that got'o be worth in compound interest to the descendants of the Hoover family?

What next the English banning any other nation from speaking English unless they pay royalties? Come to think of it doesn't the Irishman Bono write his lyrics in English...?

It's like Lady Gaga. She is to my seventeen year old daughter what David Bowie was to me GOD and as an out and out admirer of Gaga myself I can actually see Gaga's very definitely the first female David Bowie.

Yet that name Gaga was pinched off Queen's hit single Radio Gaga so when I read Gaga's banned some ice cream parlour from paying homage to her Ben & Jerry Cherry Garcia style by calling one of their breast milk ice cream products Baby Gaga I can't help wondering how she'd feel if at the start of her career Roger Taylor the writer of Radio Gaga'd planted his legal boot equally firmly between her musical plums. She might never in fact've sufficiently recovered to become the considerable recording artist she now is.

What next England forbidding any other nation from using the English language unless they pay royalties?

Now there's a thought because doesn't that Irish guy Bono write his lyrics in English...?

WORDS DECEIVE BUT GEOGRAPHY DOES NOT -

Giza Geometry is finally resolved. This rediscovery is about far more than a math principle and 'points to' the place where the modern era of history began - Scotland. Historians neglected to analyze geodesy and gematria both which were utilized to reveal the purpose of the pyramids. 20 years of research, built upon an intuition, rediscovered the vibrational patterns that Giza describes and the people who designed them. Once you find the zero meridian at Giza, you can measure everything: The entire world grid! Think circles.... This book is a game changer and has its conceptual feet planted firmly on Earth's terra firma.

I am not selling the book and do not profit in any way. I am though friend's with the author, David Ritchie, and spent 9 weeks with him in Scotland last year further refining my interest in this subject matter and affirming the authenticity of the material. I believe the world will change in positive ways once a true account of history, an unintentional consequence of the Giza resolutions, becomes a field of historical research once again.

This material will be a threat to conventional academia given the sonic mathematical principles presented and proof of many historic deceptions that will undermine entire careers by those with a stake in the cover story including quite likely religious foundations all which were formed in the 7th century AD. The intention is accuracy and numbers don't lie. Alignments, including the Rose Ley line that passes through the side door of Rosslyn and other key points within the Garden on it's way to Edinburgh (Eden) is one of hundreds of examples of a concealed history that was apparently meant to be rediscovered at this time..

We the Skythians is one of the more challenging books that I have ever read. The logic is simple and the math relies on prime numbers from which Giza reveals itself to be a mnemonic device literally pointing to places in the landscape where historical artifacts are revealed.....though not in the places where post 7th century history tells us. It's in the Bible, it's in the maps and it's in the mountains is an apt tagline. The numbers don't lie! The perfect alignments reveal designed intentions and contradict the histories we have been sold. Giza is the zero prime meridian through which the entire megalithic temple building efforts were based upon.

We the Skythians is also available on Amazon UK as a coffee-table sized book due the necessity of high quality maps. The maps can be purchased in a large sized laminated format separately. There is also an e-book format for digital readers..... Contact the author directly via Facebook if you have question. You will most certainly have questions! To the future....

Note: There is an article summarizing this book in the first issue of the Heretic Magazine by the author.

I've been over at MINDFUTURES reading Marcus T Anthony's Censoring the Future of Knowledge?

http://www.mind-futures.com/censoring-th...

And this was my response

Marcus it seems to me a crisis's arising in science similar to that arising in the media/arts world over copyright and in politics over extending state monitoring and control of society.

Thanks to the emergence of cleverer and cleverer technology those who're supposed to protect and serve us're now no longer content to monitor our existences as closely as they like on every conceivable level storing every tiny detail until such time as they can find a use for it they're now in the process of bypassing the whole judicial process of detection and conviction and evolving algorithms designed to identify potential bad minds and evolve non-attributable anticpatory ad hoc remedies.

Similarly artists like Bono and JK Rowling who during their youth quite happily learned their trades by freely acquainting themselves with the works and ideas of their heroes and predecessors by such means as borrowing and lending cassette copies of their heroes' albums and books all the time poo-pooing the nonsense this constituted theft now not only use every legal means to pulverise anyone daring to even remotely taking advantage of them or theirs but they're seeking to extend into infinity the copyright of work no less derivative than William Shakespeare's but of infinitely inferior quality while all the time happily endorsing the development of technology which'll ultimately mean books'll no longer be readable or music playable unless you happen to have DNA identical to the original purchaser and even then useage'll be limited to a fixed period of time.

Under such a regime Bono and JK Rowling themselves'd never be capable of emerging never mind truly talented world shaking artists like Shakespeare.

Similarly at a time when technology means as you point out we essentially have both the highest numbered and most sophisticated population in the history of the world there're those who want to use the endless possibilities of all this new technology to prune back that sophistication by restricting the types of ideas the technology can access even though the sort of ideas they want to excise from Western if not indeed World Civilization're precisely those that fascinated the minds of individuals like Shakespeare Newton Darwin and Einstein.

And now with the advent of neural interfacing we must be approaching the endgame because if we can get past this need the affluent powerful and influential feel to protect themselves by controlling and restricting what the rest of us're allowed to think own or do then a truly golden age civilization capable of exponential evolution can emerge.

If we don't get past this stage a new Borg like hive mind robotic culture'll emerge instead which'll ban all independent thought or artistry as mental illness and we won't have to worry about upsetting the likes of Bono and JK Rowling by infringing their eternally precious copyrights because theirs'll be the only stuff legally allowed down our neural interfaces.
