A Ted Talk. TEDxTalks are incredible, for more click [here].


This is a whole damn movie on the subject. It will take me three days to watch it myself, but eventually I will...


In school they said compressed fully our bodies could each fit on the head of a pin.
That means we are built of mostly empty space, but is it empty or what could it be filled with.
The answer is energy. We are less than 01% mass, over 99% energy and that's something to think about.

Blessings and peace, enjoy the ride you're on :)

Disturbingly so, but I feel it in my heart to be true. The Catholic church is nothing but the Roman Government dressed in sheepskin

Thought you might find this interesting (I know I did). It covers a few things, one of
which has always annoyed me. Why do we go to church on Sunday and declare it the day of
Worship and rest?
Turns out that in many (105) languages the word Saturday translates into Day of Sabbath
and that Sunday was the day of worship for the sun god Ra.
That is kind of odd to go worship the One and Only True God, not on the Sabbath day, but
on the day that celebrates another god. Especially when The Ten Commandments clearly
state the following...
1, "Thou shalt have no other gods before me". and 4th, "Remember the sabbath day, to keep 
it holy."
(Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work: But the seventh day is the sabbath of
the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter,
thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy
gates: For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is,
and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed
it.)
This short film goes into detail how the changes were made to change the Sabbath from
the 7th Day to the 1st day of the week, how the Catholic religion puts themselves above the laws of God and the teachings of Jesus
This film also offers a great deal of insight into the prophecies, Beginning with the Book of Daniel all the way into the Great Book of Revelations. The beast with ten horns on his head, the baked clay feet, the antichrist and the mark of the beast (666). The possibility (as I believe also) the RFID chip  might well be the mark of the beast in the right hand. The mark of the beast on your forehead would be an internal mark, or the acceptance of false gods (Ra the Sunday god) and the distortion of Gods Commandments to suit lifestyles in opposition to God's laws.

Again, I think You'll like this one...



Part II:
It is my belief with good reason that the Roman Empire never fell. They lost their city to conquer the whole world. The first took all of Europe and planted new governments in each country that they held all the power over under the name of the catholic church.
This is not catholic bashing. It's clearly what I see.
Every government on Earth kneels before them. The Vatican is not a part of any nation. It stands as does Washington D.C., it's own entity.
The American government is designed almost exactly as the Roman government at the times of Julius Caesar.

" Ancient Roman society contributed greatly to government, law, politics, engineering, art, literature, architecture, technology, warfare, religion, language, society and more in the Western world" [ Read more on Wiki].
As not a well known fact. America and everything on it. All the lands are subject to ownership by the Catholic church The true owner of this whole nation is again the Catholic church, as is England, France, Italy. Hitler once bowed to the Pope and the Pope gave him support. This idea of many nations is nothing but a schrade. There are no nations or governments except the one Roman Government now called The Catholic Church. The  nations that you have known to be are nothing but branches or districts answering still to the Roman Empire.
Enough on that, this post is for facts not babbling...As not a well known fact. America and everything on it.

•      "The church...took the pagan Sunday and made it the Christian Sunday.... The Sun was a foremost god with heathendom.... And thus the pagan Sunday, dedicated to Balder, became the Christian Sunday." (Dr. William L. Gildea, The Catholic World , March, 1894)

•   "The authority of the church could therefore not be bound to the authority of the Scriptures, because the Church had changed the Sabbath into Sunday, not by command of Christ, but by its own authority." (Canon and Tradition, p. 263)

• "We Catholics do not accept the Bible as the only rule of faith. Besides the Bible we have the living Church, the authority of the Church, as a rule to guide us. We say, this Church, instituted by Christ to teach and guide man through life, has the right to change the ceremonial laws of the Old Testament and hence, we accept her change of the Sabbath to Sunday. We frankly say, yes, the Church made this change, made this law, as she made many other laws, for instance, the Friday abstinence, the unmarried priesthood, the laws concerning mixed marriages, the regulation of Catholic marriages and a thousand other laws.

Read more on the Catholic Admissions page [Here].The reason for this post?I myself have had many questions and confusions over the many forms of Christianity that I have looked into or studied with. I have Prayed for answers to try to understand the contradictions.Not all of my Prayers have been answered, but I'm sure in time they will.God is not going to let me jump from lesson two to five without first passing three and four.My most recent answer is that almost every organized Christian Religion now is being used to satisfy the Pope to some degree, even at risk of perverting God's Laws.I know one Church that will resist that though. It's the Church or the Temple that God placed inside of me.God be with you under the Salvation of Jesus Christ. Keep seeking and don't follow the crowds, because even they don't know where they are going.God Bless.

 The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit are all you need, the rest is your duty to Pray and look for the truth in all there is.

In closing, here's a song by Donovan. I know the meaning to it and that's why I'm posting it. Maybe you might like it too...

Full Movie Post - UFOTV® Presents : ANCIENT ILLUMINATI - Riddles In Stone

Francis Bacon has always been influential in politics between America and England. It has been said that he started what we now know as the Illuminati along with The Rosicrucian Enlightenment and The Freemasons.
It has been said that he had his hand in the layout of  streets in Washington DC, Boston and Philadelphia along with other locations to follow paths of mystical powers. Also that he was very influential in the designing of the United States government.
Another fascinating fact about him would be what is known as his pen-name “Shakespeare”. The Greek goddess Athena wore a helmet and carried a spear and the term “Shake Spear” was strongly associated with her name. It was for that reason that Bacon chose that name and he paid William Shakespeare to publically accept the responsibility as authorship of the Shakespeare writings.
You should be able to recognize Athena along with Apollo because they are the statues sitting on the roofs of most court houses in America and state buildings alike.

The reason I am posting this video is because it goes into great detail to explain all of what I just talked about above and it offers much-much more.

UPDATE:
The video I first posted is good but it is not the one I had intended to post.

Children of Satan - The humans who think they run the planet ( and are trying to make sure it comes true )

This post is a share from a find on the internet of a book called Children of Satan. I have not gotten around to reading it yet because I actually found this while searching for a way for me to put ebooks like this onto my new I-pad Android type thing (LOL, I’m new to that stuff right now), anyway, as soon as I figure out what file to download and what folder to put it in on my Android I plan on reading it myself because it does sound like a very good read…



This book is a composite of three excellent pamphlets on the Bush-Cheney apparatus, their creation, the baby boomer phenomenon, the Congress for Cultural Freedom and other stuff. Read this book and be amazed.

The following is a copy of a review posted by  learningtostand

Subject: The humans who think they run the planet ( and are trying to make sure it comes true )
Maybe your landing here, your reading this is just a mistake (or maybe not).
Maybe you don't need any new or real information.
Maybe what happens in economics or politics all the time, really is ALL coincidence and happenstance. (Get off the drugs !! )
But whether or not that premise is true, is worth spending a few moments to think about.
IF you are in the West, you are being told to go back to the Stone age and be happy to be a slave.
If you live outside the west, forces are being used to keep you from technology and information, so that you cannot make progress.
After all, somebody is deciding that you don't really need the electricity that you and your family have been able to access and use for the past 100 years.
Somebody is deciding that your electricity use needs to be monitored by the system, down to what you are doing in each room of your house.
Somebody is deciding that you should not be driving your car, that you should no longer have the freedom to decide where you travel, how you travel, and where you go.
Somebody is deciding that soon TSA will start trying to exercise jurisdiction on the roads, the same way that they do in airports.
Somebody is deciding that all applications for your cell phone must release all information about you, to everyone, all the time.
These are not happening by accident. Someone has to program these systems (and instruct the programmers) so that they will know how to leave you exposed and vulnerable, in every phase and area of your life.
So your freedom is being either attacked or restricted, but your vulnerability, lack of security, and increased transparency so everyone can view your life, those factors are multiplying every month.
----
At what point will you decide to try to resist, or to learn more about the system and the planners who are doing this to you ?
Does it occur that it seems that we are RETURNING to the DARK AGES, when only a few Barons ruled everything and everyone, while the average individual, became a slave, a serf, a perpetually indebted working-machine, always in debt to the system ?
For the assertion that we are being forced BACK – step by step - into the DARK AGES, it sure seems as though there are MANY forces that are trying to make that happen.
Carol White's book about the New Dark Ages ; has been hiding in plain sight. It explains HOW this is happening, and WHO are the ones operating to make this happen.
As others have said, some things are true, EVEN IF Larouche or other authors believe them. The fact that there are even some here (who work for Archive) who seem to have a knee-jerk reaction to him, is rather telling (of their own intentions to condemn books that are pro-freedom ).
Most of Larouche's material – for those who bother to read it - concentrates on helping the little guy, AND concentrates on exposing the still-ruling families of the nobility, that forfeited their own sworn duty to their realm, and to God, to help and protect others. Much of his work exposes those who have huge reservoirs of money, and use that to try to manipulate people internationally and now more in the United States also. These families have betrayed everyone else, and they want humanity to pay for it, literally, with every next paycheck.
They want you to pay, for what they will bill you, each and every month. Its a pay-as-you-go system. You must pay for your own oppression. So larouche has published material that exposes these people, and they have succeeded in manipulating people to instantly have a negative reaction to the name, SO THAT the material is not covered, and those Elite people and groups are safe FROM exposure.
But there is a of of helpful accurate information out there, some of which includes:
Material that exposes George Bush ;
(don't knock it if you have not had the courage to read it, and read the documents )
and also explains a lot of the earlier history of the American Revolutionary times ;.
Material that shows how families of False Royalty still control British Petroleum ;, (B.P), Royal Dutch Shell, and many other Multinationals, and how they also control International narcotics trade.
Material about the political plans to advance globalism through fake spiritual movements ;and Europe and those families who rule that part of the system [ Huxley-love joy-Darwin-Rockefeller-Hubbard-Bronfman-Windsor-Coburg-Saxe-Bush-Dean-Kerry-Clinton-Lazard-Sassoon-Crowley-Milner-Cecil-Marx-Carlyle-Weinberger-Rumsfeld-Gore-Schiff-Loeb-Kuhn-Chertoff-Shaprut-Grimaldi ] etc...
Material that questions Islam ;and exposes a lot of the British Intelligence sponsorship of Islam ; courage ; if you read Arabic ;
Maybe even some of the younger folk, those few 16 year olds who can read above a 4th grade level, will find courage, and read a few dozen books, and learn about the difference between the real world that manipulates them, and the matrix that filters most of what they see each day and are exposed to in public school and universities (no matter what nation or continent you are on). You must understand what is taking place, if you want to have a hope of defeating it, or of finding out what others are planning to do to you and your family.
One of these days, plans will be unveiled that in order to even access the net, you will need your eye scanned, or your fingerprint, or a palm print or anything else that will be biometric, so that everything you learn, and everything you help others with, will be tracked. So, whatever you want to have access to or learn, you had better get a move on.
6 Months ago, no one knew anything about certain programs and methods to keep track of you. Now we may each have a small concept of the prison planet that is being built in place, all around information. Learn while you can.
For whatever reasons, those who came after Larouche were the anti-defamation league. They were exposed also ; and their older agenda ; - which operates and continues TODAY - was exposed also. The ADL works with the Southern poverty Law center (which studies how to create southern poverty, and harm others with their $ 250 million budget. Funny how all those hundreds of millions of dollars never make it to the poor people in the south, who are actually EXPERIENCING southern poverty).
That is because this group is about how to create and continue the poverty and control the people, and not about helping anyone, unless you are a globalist banker.
It is sad to realize the agenda, now over many decades, of the ADL, which seems to assault any and all gentile versions or descriptions of history [ books ] that find anything gentile (non-Jewish) praiseworthy in the smallest way.
You cannot continue to call anything that praises Christianity or gentile [standard] American culture as Anti-Semitic and think this boy-who-cried-wolf routine will have the same reaction of people accepting to be manipulated into silence, or accepting death to their history and culture, as it did 50 years go.
Not everything that all gentile people have done is always perfect, but not everything gentile deserves to be hated, condemned, castigated, and attacked.
There is a lot to be thankful for, a lot of good examples in history, a lot of positive development in ancient gentile or Saxon law ; that is to be recommended. (These are ancient systems of personal honor that have been overthrown these days in most gentile nations, but without the consent of the governed). There are examples of false Christianity ;, but there is still truth in what Christians have proclaimed ;.
that others would wish to censor.
Its worth starting to notice whether or not there is not some attempt to constantly make gentile people feel ashamed for either being Christians or for being gentiles.
Those kind of wrong conclusions seems to be constantly pushed by social media, and cable TV. It seems often to come from fortune 500 companies, or public school curriculum (dealing with history).
So If Larouche exposes the elites, show how George Bush (and his dynasty, including the youngest Bush generations that are just starting to practice trying to take over the nation to harm the people – once again) are doing wrong, and helps to give accurate information to the people, it is hard to understand how this is a bad thing.
And it is much better than the work of the Southern poverty law center, which simply uses its millions to slander people who in no way deserve it, and to create more false flag operations for the military and law enforcement, and to promote their own Nazification, in order to drag more people into personal bondage and oppression, which seems to be the actual, genuine and long-term agenda of the Southern Poverty Law center ; and those who sponsor ; and fund its existence.
The notion that no one is entitled to their own opinion must be rejected. And the notion that the only opinion that counts is the authorized elite opinions served to us by the elites and the continuum of their social-media delivery systems (Bloomberg-Microsoft-Android-Google = DoD) is B.S.
For the works of Carol White, Tarpley, or Antony Sutton or those who seek truth, what can be said is: Keep it up !!

Heal and protect your liver the natural way.

5 Natural foods that can both help your liver do its job and cleanse it to help it to heal itself.

    Your liver is like the maid of your body, cleaning up all the toxins you put into it, and therefore keeping all internal systems running smoothly. The modern diet, environmental pollutants, and our increasing dependence on toxic personal care products have put our livers on serious overtime. 

     How to Clean Your Liver with 5 Natural Liver-Cleansing Tips For this reason, it’s important to know how to clean your liver thoroughly and effectively – oh, and naturally.

     Your liver works to cleanse the blood and remove toxic substances that we’ve eaten, inhaled, or rubbed on our bodies.

      When it is overworked—as it is in many modern adults—or when you are under a significant amount of physical or even mental stress, your liver can struggle to keep up.

      “The thousands of enzyme systems that are responsible for virtually every body activity are constructed in the liver,” explains Dr. Karl Maret, M.D. “The proper functioning of the eyes, the heart, the brain, the gonads, the joints, and the kidneys are all dependent on good liver activity. If the liver is impaired from constructing even one of the thousands of enzyme systems the body requires, there is an impairment in overall body function and a resultant greater metabolic stress on the individual.”

      How to Clean Your Liver – No Products Required

     So, what can you do about it? Well, you could try a quality liver detox supplement, or you could use some items found at your local health food store, your grocery store, or even some that are already in your kitchen. Here is how to clean your liver with 5 common food items.

     1. Warm Lemon Water - Warm lemon water is a great way to detox your liver every single morning. This isn’t lemonade, so don’t add sugar or anything else. Just purified water and a healthy dose of fresh lemon juice. Some experts, like author A.F. Beddoe who wrote the book Biological Ionization as Applied to Human Nutrition, also believe that the liver produces more enzymes in response to water with lemon than to any other food.

     2. Garlic - Add some garlic to your cooking or thinly slice a clove into your next salad. Garlic contains sulfur compounds that can help activate enzymes in the liver. It contains allicin and selenium, which are both good for liver protection.

     3. Avocados - As if you need another reason to add avocados to your diet, a Japanese study found that avocados contain compounds that can protect the liver from damage. When compared with 21 other fruits, avocados had the most promise in protecting the liver from galactosamine, a “powerful” toxin that has been shown to produce a liver damage much like human viral hepatitis.

     4. Cilantro - This versatile herb can be added to just about any dish, including salads or smoothies. This herb can help remove heavy metals from the body, something your liver could be struggling with right now.

      5. Turmeric - Another powerful spice with a long list of benefits, turmeric is said to not only protect the liver from damage, but also encourage regeneration of liver cells. In addition, it increases natural bile production and aids in keeping the body toxin-free.

The Potential Miracle Element in Cannabis…

The Potential Miracle Element in Cannabis That Changed Sanjay Gupta's Mind About the Power of Pot

Martin Lee, author of "Smoke Signals," discusses the healing powers of the cannabis plant.

September 4, 2013 |  

As marijuana reforms sweep the nation, and states from coast to coast scramble to join Colorado and Washington in legalization of the notorious herb, it is clear the U.S. has reached a pivotal point in the marijuana dispute. Martin A. Lee's new book  Smoke Signals: A Social History of Marijuana—Medical, Recreational and Scientific provides an unprecedented history of the controversial plant.
Smoke Signals is an unmatched illustration of the science behind the cannabis plant. Perhaps the most stunning revelations in Lee's book are those focused on the little-known "Cinderella molecule" in the cannabis plant, called cannabidiol (CBD). CBD gives marijuana some of most wide-ranging healing properties in medicinal history, but doesn't get you stoned like THC.
Lee is also the director of  Project CBD. His wealth of knowledge on the underappreciated molecule is vital to understanding our past and future relationship with the marijuana plant. Lee spoke with AlterNet about the miraculous healing potentials of CBD. 
Don Hazen: CNN medical correspondent Sanjay Gupta’s about-face on medical marijuana became a national news story. What is the significance of Gupta’s endorsement of therapeutic cannabis after years of toeing the government line and dismissing marijuana’s healing properties?
Martin A. Lee: Like most physicians, Gupta never learned about cannabis in medical school. Until recently, he knew nothing about how cannabis worked on a molecular level, its mechanism of action in the brain and body, its side effects and safety profile. He had not been following the remarkable discoveries of scientists associated with the International Cannabinoid Research Society, which was formed after the first cannabinoid receptor was identified in the brain in 1989. Instead, Dr. Gupta took his cues from federal agencies, which maintain that marijuana is a dangerous drug with no medical value.
But Dr. Gupta changed his mind when he actually delved into the science of cannabis therapeutics and saw firsthand how seriously ill Americans were benefiting from marijuana. He was intellectually honest enough to acknowledge that he was mistaken. He said he had been misled by the federal government. And he apologized for his own role as a physician and media celebrity in misleading the public.
The CNN documentary Weed was not without flaws. Several drug war myths were recycled and given credence. But overall it was a powerful, eye-opening report, a resounding thumbs-up for medical marijuana. Most significantly, Gupta’s show was the first national news program to highlight the remarkable therapeutic potential of cannabidiol, or CBD, a non-psychoactive component of marijuana.
DH: In Smoke Signals you describe CBD as the "Cinderella molecule.” Why is CBD important?
MAL: CBD is one of over 100 “cannabinoid” compounds that are unique to the marijuana plant. The most well known cannabinoid is THC. It’s what makes people feel stoned when they smoke marijuana. THC has well-documented medical benefits. So does CBD, but CBD doesn’t make people feel stoned. Moreover, CBD can actually counter or minimize the psychoactive effects of THC, depending on how much of each compound is present in a given strain or product.
CBD taps into how we function biologically on a very deep level. It has proven neuroprotective effects and its anti-cancer properties are being studied at academic research centers in the United States and elsewhere. Scientists have shown that CBD can shrink malignant tumors, change gene expression, normalize arrhythmic heartbeat, and stimulate the growth of new brain cells in adult mammals. Scientific and clinical investigations underscore CBD’s potential as a treatment for a wide range of conditions, including chronic pain, schizophrenia, PTSD, diabetes, multiple sclerosis, and antibiotic-resistant infections. That’s why I call CBD the Cinderella molecule—so many maladies are responsive to CBD that it’s almost like a fairytale. But the science is very real.


CBD has been turning heads among medical scientists for several years, and now word is getting out to the general public. Dr. Gupta’s nationally televised report focused on the astonishing transformation of Charlotte Figge, a five-year-old epileptic with Dravet’s syndrome who had 300 tonic-clonic seizures a day until she ingested a CBD-dominant cannabis tincture. Then her seizures ceased. She has been nearly seizure-free since her parents began giving her a CBD-rich remedy. Whole plant CBD-rich cannabis saved Charlotte’s life. Many other families with children suffering from intractable epilepsy are reporting dramatic results with CBD.
DH:How has CBD been received within the medical marijuana industry, which, after all, has undeniable stoner roots and caters largely to a THC-oriented clientel?
MAL: I first heard about cannabidiol while writing Smoke Signals and covering the cannabis science beat as a journalist for O’Shaughnessy’s. At the time there were no CBD-rich remedies available for medical patients, even in states that had legalized cannabis for therapeutic use. That’s because CBD had largely been bred out of black-market marijuana by horticulturists who sought to create THC-dominant strains that caused a more pronounced high. Cannabis breeders assumed that marijuana smokers first and foremost wanted a stronger buzz.
The big breakthough came in late 2009 when Oakland's Steep Hill Laboratory found a few CBD-rich strains while testing cannabis samples for the Harborside Health Center. Soon several other analytical labs in medical marijuana states were measuring THC levels and finding the odd CBD-rich strain. But the medical marijuana community as a whole was slow to pick up on CBD. Initially, most dispensary owners were reluctant to stock CBD-rich strains given that their customers were typically seeking THC-dominant products.
The general public, including most medical marijuana patients, didn’t know much about CBD. So in 2010, I cofounded Project CBD, a medical science information service that educates health professionals and the general public about CBD in particular and cannabis therapeutics in general.
DH:Is it easy to get CBD?
MAL: Today, nearly four years after the serendipitous rediscovery of whole plant CBD by a few Northern California growers, CBD-rich remedies are available in many forms—herb, edibles, ointments, tinctures, extracts, and capsules. In some states where medical marijuana is legal, patients can obtain dose-specific CBD-rich oil concentrates with varying ratios of cannabidiol and THC. This is good news, especially for those who don’t like the mild, swimmy-headed feeling that regular pot smokers find enjoyable. Marijuana makes some people anxious and dysphoric rather than mellow and euphoric. Certain CBD-rich strains are not psychoactive at all—it’s pot that doesn’t get you high! The reduced or non-existent psychoactivity of CBD-rich cannabis may make it an appealing option for folks who otherwise would never consider patronizing a medical marijuana dispensary with a Bob Marley poster on the wall.
I believe that CBD is poised to play a major role in the burgeoning medical marijuana industry as the United States edges toward legalizing cannabis for adult use. Increasingly, dispensaries and product-makers are embracing CBD as part of a proactive marketing strategy that caters to non-stoner constituencies in an effort to attract new clientel. Most people who want to smoke marijuana are already doing so, despite the fact that it’s illegal under federal law. A large percentage of those seeking CBD-rich remedies will be newcomers to the medical marijuana community.
DH: What do prohibitionists say about CBD?
MAL: The drug war establishment steadfastly maintains that cannabis is a dangerous drug with no medical value. That’s tantamount to saying the moon is made of green cheese. With public sentiment strongly pro-choice regarding medicinal cannabis, drug warriors are scrambling for new ways to justify marijuana prohibition, a policy that’s built on a mountain of lies. Diehard prohibitionists like Kevin Sabet, President Obama’s former drug policy advisor, are trying to spin the news about CBD to further stigmatize high-THC cannabis, casting the high causer, THC, as the bad recreational cannabinoid, while pegging CBD as the good medical cannabinoid. Project CBD categorically rejects this dichotomy in defense of whole plant cannabis therapeutics.

The science is on our side. Scientific studies indicate that CBD and THC work best in combination and potentiate each other’s therapeutic effects. There are numerous compounds in cannabis, each with specific medicinal attributes, which combine synergistically to create a holistic “entourage effect,” according to leading scientists in the field, so that the therapeutic impact of the whole plant is greater than the sum of its parts.
Sabet fixates on isolated cannabinoids. He tactically concedes that pure CBD and single-molecule THC may have therapeutic value, yet he claims preposterously that the plant itself is not medicinal. Sabet heads an astroturf organization called Smart Approaches to Marijuana (SAM). He’s an inveterate anti-marijuana bigot and a drug war careerist who is addicted to stigmatizing the plant and those who use it.
Sabet maintains that anyone who might benefit from CBD must wait until Big Pharma figures out how to monetize marijuana’s components. If Sabet and his flat-earth allies had their way, Charlotte Figge would be dead by now.
DH: It’s been more than 75 years since the Marijuana Tax Act effectively made cannabis illegal under federal law. Why has marijuana prohibition lasted so long?
MAL: Marijuana’s illegal status has been a useful tool for political elites. In the 1930s, when Harry Anslinger, head of the Federal Bureau of Narcotics, realized his entire department was on the chopping block because of Depression-era budget cuts, he launched the Reefer Madness campaign to convince Congress and the American people that a terrible menace threatened the country, one that required a well-funded antinarcotics program. A shameless racist, Anslinger demonized marijuana to preserve and expand his bureaucratic fiefdom.
President Richard Nixon drew from a similar Machiavellian playbook in the early 1970s when he declared war on illicit drugs. For Nixon, the anti-marijuana crusade was more than just a formula for padding arrest statistics and appearing tough on crime. It was also a way of targeting youth protest, antiwar sentiment, ethnic discontent, and other expressions of cultural ferment—underscoring once again that pot prohibition had little to do with the actual effects of the herb and everything to do with who was using it.
The drug war that Nixon set in motion would escalate and metastasize under Reagan and his Oval Office successors. Official rhetoric focused on crime and safety, but the subtext was always about race and dissent. Marijuana prohibition is as an instrument of social control. It will end when it’s no longer politically expedient for demagogues and deadbeat public officials. They’ll have to figure out another way to fill America’s prisons with black and brown youth.
DH: A majority of California voters rejected legalizing cannabis in 2010,  but two years later Washington and Colorado residents voted to legalize cannabis for adult use. What ingredients for success were lacking in California that existed in the other states?
MAL: The 2010 campaign for Proposition 19 in the Golden State emphasized the potential economic benefits of legalization. In some ways it was a less proactive campaign than legalization efforts in Colorado, which directly challenged drug war myths by driving home the message that marijuana is much safer than alcohol. The California ballot measure would have increased penalties for adults who smoked marijuana in the presence of a minor. This sent a mixed message that may have reinforced one of the sacred cows of the drug war—that cannabis poses serious risks to youth. For some voters, it was a choice between boosting the economy or safeguarding public health. The successful outcome of the Colorado vote showed that it’s not necessary to include additional pot-related punishments to sway voters.

Another factor is that the cannabis industry in California has deeper roots than the fledgling industry in Colorado and Washington. The Emerald Triangle in Northern California emerged as America’s cannabis breadbasket in the late 1970s. Marijuana farmers in the Emerald Triangle are skittish at the prospect of legalization. Mom and pop growers, who’ve paid their dues over the years, fear that legalization will threaten their livelihood. They worry that Big Tobacco will try to monopolize the marijuana trade. They wince when they hear of overtures to tobacco companies from single issue-obsessed, DC-based, drug policy reform lobbyists who seem to believe that the ultimate goal is to make marijuana widely available at the cheapest price possible.
DH: What should we expect if and when marijuana is legalized nationally? Do you think it will catalyze an economic revival, as some hope? Are pot-coms destined to be the new dot-coms?
MAL: With cannabis, it’s probably best to expect the unexpected. That said, legalization should be an important priority given the pernicious side effects—or main effects—of marijuana prohibition. Marijuana prohibition is a venal and dishonest policy that has fostered crime, social discord, racial injustice, police corruption, and drug abuse itself, while shredding the Constitution and impeding medical advances. The science strongly suggests that ending cannabis prohibition would be a net positive in terms of public health.
Scientific studies indicate that cannabis consumers, compared to non-users, take less painkillers and Big Pharma meds, drink less alcohol, are less likely to be obese or diabetic, and are less likely to suffer from Alzheimer’s. In California and other states that have legalized medical marijuana, there have been no fatalities or problematic health patterns attributable to the widespread use of the herb. In all likelihood, that pattern will continue as more states legalize marijuana across the board for adults.
For all the hype about the great green rush, pot-coms are not going to be the next dot-coms. Cannabis has long been a source of nourishment for the underground economy. It doesn’t need a brand name or a chain of storefronts or a stockmarket listing to generate large amounts of cash. But cannabis won’t remedy the massive inequalities that disgrace and sicken the United States. Legalizing marijuana without challenging pervasive economic and social inequality could be a recipe for “repressive tolerance,” as the philosopher Herbert Marcuse would say. Legalization could be a fallback strategy for the 1 percent: Cut poor folks some slack and let ‘em smoke weed while they are getting fleeced.
DH: What about the children? What do you say to those who fear marijuana legalization will adversely impact young people?
MAL: Yes, protecting the children—it’s the last refuge of drug war scoundrels. Recent surveys indicate that high school students in the United States and Canada are more likely to smoke pot than cigarettes. This should be seen as a positive development. With cannabis prohibition seemingly on its last legs, drug war propagandists are ratcheting up scare stories about an epidemic of young marijuana addicts with permanent brain damage and lower IQs.
Unfortunately, Sanjay Gupta promoted federal fables about kids and cannabis, even though earlier in the show he took the DEA to task for misinforming the public. “In fact, nine percent of marijuana users will become dependent,” said Gupta, repeating one of the talking points of the DEA and the National Institute on Drug Abuse, two federal agencies founded during the Nixon era that have long since forfeited any claim to credibility with respect to cannabis.
Marijuana does not cause a person to become an addict any more than food causes a person to become a compulsive eater. The idea that marijuana damages the brains of young smokers, stunts intelligence, and makes people apathetic is a political construct with no scientific basis. Alienation and bleak prospects, not marijuana-smoking, are root causes of apathy.

Paint Shop Pro Tutorials made easy using WebCamMax and Medhi plugin filters Free

Last night I went about searching for screen capture/webcam software to make a Paint Shop Pro tutorial with.
Of course I have screen capture software, I must have 10 different programs but none do both and none of them record the sound properly.
In the past I would have to make the video, then play it back and record a sound track while watching it and then use Format Factory to convert the video and add the sound track to it as a layer.
Well I finally found a decent program called WebCamMax that does it all in one straight shot. The vid format is mp4 which is a bonus too. It creates fantastic screen captures for recording events, processes (I haven't tried recording movies with it yet) , it also adds some interesting effects to the webcam side. I don't webcam at all but I do have 4 grandsons that I might like to record some silly stuff for. As far as that goes, there are 100's of nifty little tricks you can use with your webcam for chat or just recording a film type greeting with. Backgrounds ranging from being on a stage to appear in a mirror or other just plain silly things. There are also effects to give you a fat head (I know I'm gonna like that one), silly hats and cartoon type things on the screen with you. I think you can even make your own and import them too.

This is my first shot run. I know the sound isn't up loud enough, but it was my first attempt and I had to test it. Plus it was 3:30 AM and my Lovely Daughter didn't need me making huge noise to mess up her final hours of sleep before going to school.

This is just a basic hand tinting method made using Medhi's Eraser Genuine filter and Paint Shop Pro 7.04. It is a beginners tut and therefore if you know anything about filters and layers you are probably way beyond the scope of this lesson.

Still I share it with you anyway.



Format Factory is 100% Free and by far the best vidio/audio conversion program out there [LINK]
Medhi offers 28 free filters for use with Adobe, Jasc, Corel Products as well as Irfanview, it also is 100% Free [LINK]
WebCamMax can be gotten from here [LINK], Note, if you do buy it buy soon because they are offering a 50% discount "$24.95" for a short period of time. I will delete that last note when I see that the offer has ended
Irfanview is not used in this topic, but I let the name slip and they deserve credit. Irfanview is also free and by far it is the best image viewing, cataloging, converting, web page building, screensaver making, program ever written. For more info on it go to the top of this page and type it into my search field and read my other 2 or 3 posts on it. One will even show you how to make your own Karaoke files using it, another shows how to publish web pages and another is just a features overview. [LINK]

1. Its the hangman for Bush, Blair, Obama, Brezinski and all the duel nationality US/Israeli Zionist Neo cons that where behind 9-11 and all the recent wars.
2. to let the elite gain the power they need, an army is needed. so what has to happen is: the soldiers themseves should just stop obeying! just like chaplin said in the movie "the great dictator".... when that happens, than world peace is near... since soldiers are too stupid to think for themselves.... there will never be peace and the elite will win.... get used to that and stop wining... or else, turn against the elite! although you know you are in grave danger by doing so.
3. Well Russia can dig and bury the nuke underground then detonate it or high above the earth  but you are right a hole would be better.
4.  
   but they try to keep money and to have money after!
   the blind guys give the system money so they dont want to wake you up
   if you wake up- the rich one loose power, and noone want to loose power.
   so, they keep his power
   power_money

   people_blind and trustfull in goverm.
   blind_give money to the rulers of power
   the sýstem is Evil.
5. Most of the people choose to defend, in an active or passive fashion, the current order of things mostly because of ignorance and comfort. People are taught since childhood to think and act only in their own personal best interest in order to aggressively seek power and material wealth, to bury compassion and any other normal human value. It is sad to see that too many people plan their lives like a business investment, accepting less and less time for themselves and their families.
6. Wake up and join the light - because it only takes a little light within darkness to render it obsolete.
7. What an a hole.
8. i knew this shit was gonna be crazy when the film started with star wars like ships and shit. 
9. I felt like that too, but I did it anyway....they know something is wrong...that is when they aren't keeping up with Hollywood or filing their nails! I shared it anyway and so should you!
10. Thank you so much for this very wonderful upload. I learned more in the 55 minutes than I did in my school years. Cannot begin to thank you enough! It all rings true. It all rings true! So what can we do now?

Stop the Massive Crime Bill: Make Canada Safer, Not Meaner

I just got this in my email and thought I should share it. I can usually save an email as a document and that would have worked fine, but I just upgraded my FireFox and for some reason I can't do that today.

I think the cause is very important and even more so I like the links to the information that you can use to dig deeper on different points of the topic.

From here on it's all email. I hope this finds some use amongst a few of my friends.

[Start]

Dear David,

This week, experts are speaking out against the massive crime bill that our Conservative government is rushing through Parliament.¹ Even conservative Texans are warning Canada not to follow America’s failed path of mandatory sentences and massive prison expansion.² Now, we need a massive public outcry to stop the bill, and make Canada safer, not meaner.

Experts agree that the crime bill would make Canada a more dangerous place by filling new prisons with people who should not be there. Instead, experience shows that we should focus on proven strategies to prevent crime, rehabilitate people and reintegrate them into society.^1,3 The stakes are huge: if this bill passes we’ll be spending billions to trap people and create a permanent underclass of Canadians with little hope for a better life.⁴

The good news is that more and more Canadians are speaking out and public opinion is close to a decisive shift. The Conservatives want to be "Canada's natural governing party" and they care about public opinion. We need to show the Conservative government that they can either choose a better path, or they will pay a serious political cost for making Canada a meaner and more dangerous place.

Harper's Prison Cartoon

  Mandatory sentences and prison expansion backfired in the United States, a country with only 5% of the global population and 25% of all the world’s prisoners. Today, state after state is in crisis and is repealing those laws.²

One conservative Texan, Judge John Creuzot of the Dallas County Court, has warned us, saying: “You will spend billions and billions and billions on locking people up. And there will come a point in time where the public says, 'Enough!' And you'll wind up letting them out." ²

We all want to make Canada safer. Yes, there is a role for punishment that is proportionate to the crime and wisely chosen for the circumstance. However, in the vast majority of cases, rehabilitation is better than long jail sentences. Canada’s focus on prevention and rehabilitation has already brought crime rates to historic lows.^3,5

Every billion dollars our federal government forces our provinces to spend on new prisons is a billion dollars that could have been spent preventing crimes by supporting programs for at-risk youth, drug and alcohol treatment programs, and strategies for mental health.

Click here to send a message that you want to stop this bill, and establish an independent commission of diverse citizens and experts to create a 21^st century Canadian justice plan:
 
The crime bill represents a creeping erosion of Canada’s social fabric. We know that millions of Canadians believe that prevention and restorative justice - approaches that make sure the victim’s needs are met and the community is healed - should be the heart of Canadian justice.

This crime bill would move us in the wrong direction. Who benefits from one-size-fits-all punishments? Who benefits from massive prison expansion? Who benefits from throwing more of Canada’s youth, poor, and mentally ill in prison?

It’s time we speak out together. This petition is an essential first step in a major campaign. Will you join us?

Thank you.

With hope and respect,
Jamie, Matthew, Emma, Adam, Ryan, Tria and the whole Leadnow.ca team

P.S. The crime bill would raise the cost of filing for a pardon from $150 to $600. Why? That money wont pay for new prisons, it will keep poor people from getting jobs.

Great Legalization Debates of 2012 [Round One]

Great Legalization Debates of 2012 (Round one)
 

This is a cap from the Great Legalization Debates of 2012 Debate, I know the audio's kinda bad and the vid's not that great either.

You might join when you find out that the corn based fuel is far to expensive to grow and the chemicals used to grow it are too toxic for our soil and you need more fuel.
Or you just might wait and let the rest of us suckers do all the fighting for you and then it becomes common theme to support it, like so many other times in the past, but you Will Join us in this effort. You will because eventually you'll have to or you'll just do it because it'll be easier than avoiding it any longer.


Yes, this Debate was important for all of us, all the coming debates will be also and in the future the sound will be better, lighting will be better and some big fat cheese eatin sweaty good for nothing punk will try to sell it to you like it was his idea all along.
No good waiting, because here it is now. Get on at the beginning anmd join us, to help us bring this Nation back into the role of leadership, of the people, for the people and by the people (like it once was)
