'Alpha Lambda Mu' - America's first Muslim fraternity

Fraternities are often used as an excuse to hold wild parties, where the alcohol flows freely and no behavior is too outrageous.

But at America's first Muslim frat house, such debauchery is strictly forbidden - with the emphasis instead on charity work, self-improvement and mutual support.

Alif Laam Meem has been founded at the University of Texas, Dallas, as a way for Muslim students to socialize together and enjoy college life without the drinking culture which is integral to most frats.

Frat: Alif Laam Meem is the first Muslim fraternity in the U.S. after being set up at the University of Texas, Dallas

Protest: The group recently joined a demonstration standing up against domestic violence

Instead of partying, the frat brothers get together to discuss their faith, and drive around the local area handing out sandwiches to the homeless.

Their initiation ceremony does not involve drinking from a keg of beer, but handing over $100 to be donated to charity.

And rather than chugging drinks from red cups, they can be recognized by their bright red kufi caps.

The fraternity - whose name is Alpha Lambda Mu in the traditional Greek letters, or Alif Laam Meem in Arabic - was founded by Ali Mahmoud shortly after he arrived as an undergraduate at UT Dallas.

When a Muslim friend told him that he was considering joining a fraternity to share in its social life and alumni connections, he began to think about how Muslims were excluded from many traditional 'Greek' activities.

Community: The frat was founded as a way of helping Muslim students lead a full social life on campus

Prayer: The frat brothers gather for meetings where they discuss their faith and moral issues

'The idea of a Muslim fraternity seemed heretical,' he told the Independent - but he realised that he could bring pious young men together in a format which was already familiar on campus.

Some Muslim groups have criticized Mr Mahmoud for joining a tradition which is often associated with excessive drinking and sexual promiscuity, but he insists it is important show that frats do not have to be decadent environments.

'Muslims have been having a hard time recently trying to understand what their role in society is, so to embrace this very traditional American organisation is a symbolic move,' he told the New York Daily News.

However, the student has rejected any suggestion that the frat might be designed to help Muslims integrate with mainstream U.S. culture, pointing out that most members are in fact natural-born Americans.

'I personally grew up in Plano, Texas,' he said. 'I went to public school, I played Xbox Live all the time with my friends who weren't Muslim, and I regrettably ate too much fast food.
'I'm a proud American Muslim, and I see no contradiction of those two titles. Islam is my moral compass that guides every aspect of my life, but it also leaves room for our cultural experiences.'

While many college students cannot imagine the frat experience without drinking and partying, Mr Mahmoud is adamant that he and his friends are not missing out on anything.
'Most of us have grown up in families where that atmosphere of partying and drinking is not the norm,' he said. 'And we think that behavior of womanizing and excessive drinking is un-gentleman-like.'

Activities carried out by Alif Laam Meem so far include protesting against domestic violence, and raising money for the victims of the Boston Marathon bombings.
As the new academic year began, the fraternity began a recruitment drive - and despite its religious foundation, non-Muslims are welcome to apply.

Déjà vu again in Syria? Flashback to Gaddafi and Saddam who gave up weapons before being attacked and toppled

Is Assad Being Tricked Into Sacrificing Syria?
Or is the plan to relinquish chemical weapons a geopolitical master stroke?

Is President Bashar Al-Assad being tricked into creating circumstances that will hand the Obama White House a justification for war, or is the plan for Syria’s chemical weapons to be destroyed a geopolitical master stroke that will avert a regional conflict?

Syria’s Foreign Minister Walid Muallem today formally accepted a Russian proposal – first mooted by John Kerry – for Syria to hand its chemical arsenal over to international control in a bid to avoid a US military attack.

Many see the development as a stunning example of Russia once again outmaneuvering the United States, seizing on an apparent gaffe by Kerry in order to pull the rug out from underneath Washington and derail Obama’s pretext for war.

However, could the precondition of Syria destroying its chemical weapons actually be used to rescue a congressional vote that had looked doomed to fail?

[...]

In December 2003, Colonel Gaddafi agreed to give up his weapons of mass destruction and allow unimpeded inspections. This didn’t stop the Obama administration coming to the aid of Al-Qaeda-linked rebels eight years later to destroy Libya and leave it in the hands of brutal warlords.

Similarly, Saddam Hussein agreed to give UN weapons inspectors unfettered access in a desperate bid to prevent the US invasion of Iraq, but the move was completely futile because, as in the case of Syria, the decision to attack had already been made...

Better drop those McDonald`s chicken 'McNuggets' - SHOCKING 'mysterious fibers' found...what else is there?

McDonald's Chicken McNuggets found to contain mysterious fibers, hair-like structures; Natural News Forensic Food Lab posts research photos, video

(NaturalNews) Today we announce the first investigation conducted at the Natural News Forensic Food Laboratory, the new science-based research branch of Natural News where we put foods under the microscope and find out what's really there.

Earlier today I purchased a 10-piece Chicken McNuggets from a McDonald's restaurant in Austin, Texas. Under carefully controlled conditions, I then examined the Chicken McNuggets under a high-powered digital microscope, expecting to see only processed chicken bits and a fried outer coating.

But what I found instead shocked even me. I've seen a lot of weird stuff in my decade of investigating foods and nutrition, but I never expected to find this...

Update: Natural News has now released a second round of "mysterious fiber" photos of Chicken McNuggets, in addition to the photos you see below.

Strange fibers found embedded inside Chicken McNuggets

As the following photos show, the Chicken McNuggets were found to contain strange fibers that some people might say even resemble so-called "Morgellon's."

We found dark black hair-like structures sticking out of the nugget mass, as well as light blue egg-shaped structures with attached tail-like hairs or fibers.

These are shown in extreme detail in the photos below, taken on August 15, 2013 at the Natural News Forensic Food Lab. The actual Chicken McNugget samples used in these photos have been frozen for storage of forensic evidence.

We also found odd red coloring splotches in several locations, as well as a spherical green object that resembles algae.

We are not claiming or implying that these objects in any way make McDonald's Chicken McNuggets unsafe to consume. We do, however, believe that this visual evidence may warrant an FDA investigation into the ingredient composition of Chicken McNuggets.

In particular, where are the hair-like structures coming from? This is especially important to answer, given that chickens do not have hair. Is there cross-species contamination in the processing of Chicken McNuggets? This question needs to be answered.

1953 coup against the democratically-elected Iranian PM Mosaddeq none other than for - OIL...no real surprise there

US fomented 1953 coup to control Iran oil: William Beeman
Press TV
Aug 20, 2013

Press TV has conducted an interview with William Beeman, professor at University of Minnesota, about the US Central Intelligence Agency declassifying a document that confirms Washington’s role in the 1953 coup against the democratically-elected Iranian Prime Minister Mohammad Mosaddeq.



What follows is an approximate transcription of the interview.

Press TV: The released documents say the aim of the CIA operation was to cause the Mosaddeq government to fall. Just why did the CIA want to depose Mosaddeq?

Beeman: There were two reasons. The first reason had to do with the nationalization of oil. The United States and Great Britain were going to lose millions of dollars plus access to oil when the National Iranian Oil Company was nationalized by Mosaddeq.

Though the second reason is, however, for the United States. The United States was afraid and continued to be afraid all the way through the Carter administration that somehow Russia or the Soviet Union was going to invade Iran and push down to the Persian Gulf and gain a warm water port.

So the United States had to look right after World War II to the Soviet attempts to set up puppet states in Kurdistan and Azerbaijan and they were afraid that Mosaddeq was too weak to be able to withstand any kind of Soviet pressure.

So those were the two big reasons. One was control of oil and one was fear of the Soviet Union during the Cold War.

Press TV: Even now, the US government continues to allocate an annual budget for covert operations in Iran. How different are Washington’s aims today?

Beeman: Well they are a little bit different because there is no more Soviet Union. But there is no question that the United States is attempting to try to control politics within the Middle East.

     There is still a faction within Washington that continually want regime change in Iran and        there is also no question that the United States would like very much to have some kind of      control over the petroleum market in Iran.

In this regard, the fear that Iran is somehow a danger to Israel is merely a way of trying to sell US interference in Iran to the rest of the world.

Who knew ORGASMS can increase BRAINPOWER?!?

If you were asked what gives your brain a better workout - orgasms or doing a crossword puzzle or soduku, what would you answer?

Well...no, surprisingly accordingly to neuroscientist Professor Barry Komisaruk, orgasms give our brains a better workout as "the sensation increases brain activity across the whole organ whereas a puzzle activates only relatively localized regions."

The 72 yr old researcher has been studying female arousal since the `60s and works at Rutgers University in New Jersey, studying women in his laboratory at the university’s Department of Psychology. Initially the professor started his experiments on rats but then moved on to women in the `80s.

Dr. Komisaruk measured the blood flow to his female patient`s brains as they reached orgasm, and says, ‘at orgasm we see a tremendous increase in the blood flow [to the brain]. So my belief is it can’t be bad. It brings all the nutrients and oxygenation to the brain.’

‘Mental exercises increase brain activity but only in relatively localized regions. Orgasm activates the whole,’ he said.

He also claims the orgasm sensations can block out pain. The increased blood flow and oxygen surely plays a role. Now, this can can instrumental in such, of finding out what parts of the human brain produce such intense pleasure and can it be used in some way? As the neuroscientist eluded - ‘What would that do to depression or anxiety or addiction or pain?’

Dr. Komisaruk stands in a unique position in this matter and field as he published the first evidence of brain mapping and regions involved in orgasm in women almost a decade ago.

Very interesting indeed...but begs the question now of what about too much orgasm activity on the brain? Nothing is ever good when done in excess of moderation...nevertheless what a brainteaser.

"...Not majority rule but just rule;" a lost concept in modern day democracy

"...not majority rule but just rule: All, too, will bear in mind this sacred principle, that though the will of the majority is in all cases to prevail, that will, to be rightful, must be reasonable; that the minority possess their equal rights, which equal laws must protect, and to violate would be oppression."

Billions of petrodollars flood into Egypt post military coup, so who needs democracy anyway?

I was never a Muhammed Morsi fan but to uproot a democratic institution without following the normal and proper conventions of a government is just ludicrous, and it goes to show that the Egyptian military is an institution beholden NOT to the people as they Egyptian people might think, but in reality to a 'foreign' entity. The sooner the people realize this, the better they can control the outcome. The Egyptian army has always protected itself at any cost and will do the bidding of others as its strings are pulled to and fro. No matter what else occurs in Egypt in terms of a government, the military will always be there as a watchdog ready to obey it`s master`s orders. And of course, lets not forget it`s military financing and budget...that it`s wholly dependent on. Finally, what can one say about the Persian Gulf nations...no self identity whatsoever. They who hate and abhor democracy, pumped into Egypt a staggering $12 billion all in a single month, chump change when compared to what was 'given' to Cairo post-Mubarak.

Its funny in retrospect when you think to President Obama`s 2009 Cairo speech, where he declared, “No system of government can or should be imposed upon one nation by another,..."

Our wise Founding Father George Washington`s farewell address sums up accurately our current state of affairs concerning our diplomatic and military commitment to virtually the entire world. “Nothing is more essential,” Washington said, “than that permanent, inveterate antipathies against particular nations, and passionate attachments for others, should be excluded.”

“The nation which indulges towards another a habitual hatred or a habitual fondness is in some degree a slave,” he added. “It is a slave to its animosity or to its affection, either of which is sufficient to lead it astray from its duty and its interest.” What ominous words from our founding father, who sadly is ridiculed by our government officials as being 'un-American.'

Egyptian army’s financial coup: 12 billion petrodollars from Saudi, UAE, Kuwaiti fans
DEBKAfile
July 10, 2013

In a dazzling display of monetary muscle, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates poured $8 billion in a single day into the coffers of Egypt’s army rulers in cash, grants, loans without interest and gifts of gas, a dizzying life-saving infusion into its tottering economy. Forking out sums on this scale in a single day – or even month - is beyond the capacity of almost every world power – even the US and Russia - in this age of economic distress. The Arab oil colossuses managed to dwarf Iran’s pretensions to the standing of regional power.
Tuesday, July 9, just six days after the Egyptian army overthrew the Muslim Brotherhood president Mohamed Morsi, a UAE delegation of foreign and energy ministers and national security adviser landed in Cairo. They came carrying the gifts of $1 billion as a grant and $2 billion in long-term credit.

In well-orchestrated moves, Saudi Arabia then stepped forward with a $5 billion package, of which a lump sum of $2 billion was drafted to Egypt’s state bank that day, followed by another $2 billion as a gift of Saudi gas, and a further $1 billion for propping up the sagging Egyptian currency.

The delivery by two Arab governments to a third of financial assistance on this scale and on a single day is unheard of in the Middle East, or, indeed, anywhere else.

As they celebrate Ramadan, 84 million Egyptians can start looking forward to a square meal at the end of their month of fasting.

This river of largesse was the outcome of a development first revealed by DEBKAfile last week: The Egyptian military high command was not working alone when its operations headquarters put together the July 3 takeover of power from the Muslim Brotherhood; it was coordinated closely down to the last detail with the palaces of the Saudi and UAE rulers and the operations rooms of their intelligence services.

The last DEBKA Weekly issue 594 (July 5) carried details of the military-intelligence mechanism at work between the three governments.

The coming issue, out next Friday, July 12, offers further revelations of how this mechanism is designed to shore up Egypt’s post-coup regime and restore the strife-torn country, the most populous in the Arab world, to its traditional eminence. Cairo is assigned a lead role in a Sunni Muslim bloc stretching from the Gulf to Cairo (with room for quiet collaboration with Israel) to withstand the challenges posed by the alliance of Russia, Iran, Syria and the Lebanese Hizballah.

The petrodollar shower for Egypt did not end with the $8 billion from Saudi Arabia and the UAE: Kuwait has pledged another $5 billion - later amended to $4 billion - in a secret communication to Riyadh. It will be released after the sheikhdom's parliamentary elections on July 27, and so raise total Gulf Arab bounty to Egypt to the staggering total of $12 billion.
Friendly assistance on this scale tends to diminish the relevance of Washington’s dilemmas over the continuation of its $1.3 billion aid package to Egypt after a military coup, of which $700 million is due this year.

The suggestion that US aid may be used to hasten Egypt’s “swift return to a democratically elected civilian government” loses its force when Saudi Arabia and the UAE have both guaranteed to make up any shortfalls in US aid to Egypt.

On June 26, Syrian Deputy Prime Minister Kadri Jamil boasted that Moscow, Beijing and Tehran were contributing half a billion dollars per month to Syria’s war chest. “It’s not so bad to have Russia, China and Iran on your side,” he gloated.

Egypt can now boast to have far outstripped Syria in foreign support - $12 billion in a single month, compared with a mere $6 billion in a year.

We celebrate the Fourth of July, but do we ask WHY we salute the red, white and blue and WHERE it came from?

Why the U.S. Flag is Red, White and Blue
By Nicole Greenstein
TIME

Every Fourth of July, we flaunt Uncle Sam hats, wave our flag, and watch fireworks shoot sparks into the night sky. But many never even stop to ask the question, “Why does America salute the red, white and blue?”

On June 14, 1777 in Philadelphia, the Marine Committee of the Second Continental Congress adopted a resolution that read the following: “Resolved, that the flag of the United States be thirteen stripes, alternate red and white; that the union be thirteen stars, white in a blue field representing a new constellation.”

And with these words, the Stars and Stripes were born. Yet the resolution never said a word about the significance behind the choice of red, white and blue. And for good reason. The three colors did not have any official meaning when the flag was adopted in 1777.

The colors and their significance still trace back to the birth of the country, and had very specific meanings in the creation of the Great Seal a year earlier. On July 4, 1776, the Continental Congress passed a resolution authorizing a committee to develop a seal for the country. The committee was instructed to draw up a seal that reflected the Founding Fathers’ beliefs and values, as well as the sovereignty of the new nation. Red, white and blue were chosen, and the Great Seal was officially adopted on June 20, 1782.

Heraldic devices such as seals have specific meanings for each element and color, and the U.S. Seal was no exception. Charles Thomson, Secretary of the Continental Congress, explained the significance to Congress when he presented the seal. “The colors,” Thomson said at the time, “are those used in the flag of the United States of America. White signifies purity and innocence. Red, hardiness & valour, and Blue… signifies vigilance, perseverance & justice.”

Mike Buss, a flag expert with the American Legion, says that the most obvious reason for the flag’s colors is that they were simply taken from our mother country’s flag — the Union Jack of England. “Our heritage does come from Great Britain, and that was some of the thought process that went about in coming up with our flag,” Buss says of the American flag’s red, white and blue. “They come from the three colors that the Founding Fathers had served under or had been exposed to.”

Over the years people have altered Thomson’s original interpretation. Some now say that red represents the blood spilled by the patriots and those who fight to protect our country. President Reagan even put his own spin on the matter when he proclaimed 1986 the Year of the Flag. “The colors of our flag signify the qualities of the human spirit we Americans cherish,” Reagan said. “Red for courage and readiness to sacrifice; white for pure intentions and high ideals; and blue for vigilance and justice.”

The significance behind the flag’s design is more commonly known than that of its colors. The 50 stars stand for America’s 50 states, while the 13 red and white stripes represent the 13 colonies. But there’s also a lesser-known interpretation for the Stars and Stripes. The House of Representatives’ 1977 book about the flag states: “The star is a symbol of the heavens and the divine goal to which man has aspired from time immemorial; the stripe is symbolic of the rays of light emanating from the sun.”

Although most Americans today aren’t aware of the specific symbolism behind the flag’s red, white and blue, flag expert Buss is not concerned. Instead, he believes the flag’s power to evoke patriotism and pride after all these years is most important.

“For us veterans, the flag represents why we served,” Buss says. “We were there because the flag represented our freedoms — freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom of religion.”

What Americans ought to know about the Fourth of July but REALLY don`t...

Independence Day, or the Fourth of July, celebrates the adoption by the Continental Congress of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776. Now on the 237th birthday of the United States, what`s shocking is that most 'Americans' don`t fully know the significance of the Fourth of July, its history, relevance and simply don't know WHY we celebrate the 4th of July or what country we declared independence from. Surprising huh?...

Firstly, the Declaration of Independence wasn’t signed on July 4, 1776...

The Declaration of Independence is the nation's most cherished symbol of liberty and Thomas Jefferson's most enduring monument, since it was he who first wrote a draft of the document between June 11 and June 28, 1776 and was submitted when the Second Continental Congress met. 

    On July 1, 1776, the Second Continental Congress met in Philadelphia, and on the following 
    day 12 of the 13 colonies voted in favor of Richard Henry Lee’s motion for independence. 
    The delegates then spent the next two days debating and revising the language of a 
    statement drafted by Thomas Jefferson.

    On July 4, Congress officially adopted the Declaration of Independence, and as a result the 
    date is celebrated as Independence Day. Nearly a month would go by, however, before the 
    actual signing of the document took place. First, New York’s delegates didn’t officially give 
    their support until July 9 because their home assembly hadn’t yet authorized them to vote in 
    favor of independence. Next, it took two weeks for the Declaration to be “engrossed”—
    written on parchment in a clear hand. Most of the delegates signed on August 2, but several
    —Elbridge Gerry, Oliver Wolcott, Lewis Morris, Thomas McKean and Matthew Thornton—
    signed on a later date. (Two others, John Dickinson and Robert R. Livingston, never signed 
    at all.) The signed parchment copy now resides at the National Archives in the Rotunda for 
    the Charters of Freedom, alongside the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.

Thomas Jefferson's draft of the Declaration of Independence, included eighty-six changes made later by John Adams (1735-1826), Benjamin Franklin 1706-1790), other members of the committee appointed to draft the document, and by Congress. The "original Rough draught" of the Declaration of Independence, one of the great milestones in American history, shows the evolution of the text from the initial composition draft by Jefferson to the final text adopted by Congress on the morning of July 4, 1776

Russia`s answer to countering asteroid threat to the Earth

A Russian scientist has proposed using ICBM`s to fight threats posed by asteroids hitting Earth

This week its been reported that a Russian rocket scientist thinks a Russian ICBM can be used to destroy asteroids that pose a threat to the Earth, specifically the Soviet-era Voyevoda ICBM or NATO classification SS-18 Satan missiles. This news comes four months after a powerful meteor struck Russia’s Urals region, injuring 1,200 people in the area.

Now, the Soviet-era Voyevoda (SS-18 Satan) ICBMs which have been in service since 1967 "...are well-suited for fighting suddenly discovered small [space] objects,” said Sabit Saitgarayev, a senior researcher at the State Rocket Design Center in the city of Miass in the Chelyabinsk Region.

These ICBM`s use the standard liquid fuel based on hydrazine and not the cryogenic fuel used in Russian heavy space rockets like the Soyuz which cannot be kept for long and is supplied directly before the launch. In essence, the latter rocket fuel type requires several days for prepping the rockets for launch and would not be favorable against targets discovered only hours before hitting the Earth.

For this reason, the scientist says the Voyevoda missiles are favorable as they can take off 10-20 minutes after an order is given for launch and are able to "destroy small space objects with a diameter of up to 100 meters if the missile is equipped with the third stage and if reequipped with a booster, the missile will be able to destroy space objects five-six hours before their collision with the Earth", he said.

Currently, the Voyevoda (SS-18 Satan) are 2 staged ICBM`s with a payload capacity of 8.8 tons, that can carry up to 10 warheads, each with a yield up to 750 kilotons (TNT). "The [missiles] can stay in the condition of their readiness for launch for ten and more years, after some reequipping,” the scientist said.

Now, the only other question is, how the vicinity of the asteroid blast with the missiles along with the blast fragments will pose a grave threat to our ever growing number of satellites that orbit the planet as well as the ISS crew in space. This is of concern since when in 2007 China tested a ground-launched anti-satellite weapon and was condemned for it due to the dangers of the thousands of pieces of debris in orbit that continue to threaten both manned and unmanned spacecraft.

The energy system of the Ancients & the mega monolithic builders

[the following is selectively abridged from Carmen Boulter, PhD The Pyramid Code; John Dering, Electromagnetic field theorist; John Burke, Biological Engineer, Robert Schoch, PhD Geologist, Boston Univ & Abd`el Hakim Awyan, Archaeologist, Indigenous wisdom keeper]: 

'Energy' is palpable at ancient Egyptian monolithic sites as well as monolithic sites around the globe. Claude Swanson, physicist, confirms numerous experiments in the last 20 years of research to show a certain type of energy that does not exist in our current science - called subtle energy.

This is a whole new trend of thought in looking at ancient structures, that maybe the ancients understood subtle energies. In the mega monolithic societies of the world, it appears its a type of energy tat existed they used. Monolithic structures harnessed the Earth`s natural varying geo-electromagnetic energy which generates therefore an electric current - called Telluric currents - of which these subtle energies passes along invisible lines around the globe. Certain types of geologies like dolomite limestone and granite magnify those energies several fold, and evidence shows the megalithic builders situated their structures around these lines and areas. Ancient scared sites and temples globally were always built along these lines. 

These subtle energies worked in conjunction with underground limestone aquifers (porous bearing rock), where the flow of water through the layers of rock from rainfall or rising rivers would generate electrical ground current and a magnetic field. Megalithic builders designed their structures and built them in such a way as to further concentrate those energies, so they definitely seem to have known what they were doing.  

Invisible subtle energy occurs around us all the time and is measurable by science.

When you look back at how sacred sites were chosen, buildings like the pyramids that were constructed, the suspicion arises they understood quite a lot more about this stuff than we do and may have been using it in their engineering.

The Energy of Today and of the Ancients

...We turn a blind eye to the ancients with our modern day hubris, but could they have been far smarter than us?

[the following is selectively abridged from Carmen Boulter, PhD The Pyramid Code & Abd`el Hakim Awyan, Archaeologist, Indigenous wisdom keeper]: 

Between 1901-1917, the Tesla tower was built in Long Island, NY by Nikola Tesla as a wireless broadcasting system for telephone and electrical signals. It was constructed upon an aquifer with descending passageways and tunnels beneath it. At the time few understood how it all 

worked. Tesla`s funding was ultimately dropped by JP Morgan because Tesla wanted the 

wireless electricity to be FREE and therefore JP Morgan couldn`t make a profit. Tesla was 

driven into obscurity...

The energy to create free wireless energy has always existed on our planet and still exists today.

The energy of the ancients was based on an 'implosion' model. It was completely a passive energy that doesn`t pollute, that has no by-products. 

Modern day energy is based on the 'explosion' model. The energy we use today is by combustion and non-renewable; energy that leaves exhaust and pollution.

Implosion energy like solar and wind is clean and renewable. We need sustainable renewable energy as we march forward into the future. In a nutshell, the implosion energy of the ancients, all you need is a ray of sun on running water. Underneath the Great Pyramid and Giza Complex, there are underground limestone aquifers and evidence of man-made tunnels full of water connected to the Nile river. In ancient times, the pyramids and the networks of underground water tunnels generated energy in the form of electric ground current that the ancient Egyptian people used. The idea would be the falling and rising of the Nile that would produce this electric ground current by moving through the different layers of the underground limestone aquifer rising up through the pyramid. 

The Giza Power Plant theory proposed by Christopher Dunn through volumes of evidence, suggest the Great pyramid of Giza and the whole Giza complex produced energy by this method - the implosion model of energy. The pyramids were power generators. However, now in modern times the pyramids no longer produce energy since the pyramid[s] are stripped of their outer casing stones and the secret knowledge and technology were lost throughout the ages. Catastrophes around the world 'decommissioned' some of these sites - some went off-line like a power plant. The 'spiritual granaries' eventually went out, - 'the street light went out;' the original knowledge got lost and the later builders were building out of ego and not the good of humanity. They were no longer engines to feed the the people. 

Optimistically stated by Carmen Boulter, "I wonder if the original knowledge, the few people who knew the secrets to the energy connection between the pyramids didn`t die off. We don`t have the technology to build the pyramids now exactly the way they were built - not even close. We are the most evolved we`ve ever been and that is one of the blinders that has stopped us from imagining the ancients could have been far smarter than us. As long as we think we are more advanced than we`ve ever been, we are blind to the technologies with subtle energies."

Its fair to conclude with the wise words of Abd`el Hakim Awyan, "It`s not fair to deny what we can`t touch or see with your own hand."

NY bill proposed to charge you with a felony for 'annoying' a NYPD cop - the police state gets bigger

NY Senate passes Bill that would make annoying a cop a felony
Bill would basically allow police to arrest based on their own subjective impulses

by Adan Salazar
Infowars.com
June 6, 2013

Lawmakers in New York may have jumped the shark with their latest police protection bill.
New York Senate Bill 2402 would effectively make it a class E felony to “annoy” so-called peace officers.

The bill, in part, reads:

      A PERSON IS GUILTY OF AGGRAVATED HARASSMENT OF A POLICE OFFICER OR    
      PEACE OFFICER WHEN, WITH THE INTENT TO HARASS, ANNOY, THREATEN OR 
      ALARM A PERSON WHOM HE OR SHE KNOWS OR REASONABLY SHOULD KNOW 
      TO BE A POLICE OFFICER OR PEACE OFFICER ENGAGED IN THE COURSE OF 
      PERFORMING HIS OR HER OFFICIAL DUTIES, HE OR SHE STRIKES, SHOVES, KICKS 
      OR OTHERWISE SUBJECTS SUCH PERSON TO PHYSICAL CONTACT.

According to WIVB, Sen. Joe Griffo, one of the original sponsors of the bill, defended it and the all-important police state arguing, “Police officers who risk their lives every day in our cities and on our highways deserve every possible protection, and those who treat them with disrespect, harass them and create situations that can lead to injuries deserve to pay a price for their actions.”

Besides the otherwise lame attempt to justify a bill that in essence gives police free rein to claim physical annoyance, there is no actual explanation given for creating such a bill.

If signed into law, offenders would be subjected to the same penalties as other class E felonies like “placing a false bomb or hazardous substance” in a public place, and “riot in the first degree.” This is the lowest felony charge in New York, but can still carry a penalty of up to 4 years imprisonment, depending on the judge’s decision.

Given the fact that police almost universally disapprove of those who dare film them, little effort is needed to imagine them citing the bill’s content as justification for their arrest of citizen journalists like We Are Change’s Luke Rudkowski, who routinely gets into confrontations with police, or our own intrepid Infowars reporter Dan Bidondi, who it could be argued “harassed” authorities at the Boston Marathon press conferences when they had to physically touch him.

In addition, the bill virtually welcomes and protects police who would provoke citizens into any kind of spat, as, under the vague language of the bill, any physical “harassment” can be deemed unlawful.

RT also noted how questionable laws were increasingly being cited by police in their own defense, noting the example of New York homeowner Emily Good, who was arrested by police in Rochester “while standing in her yard and videotaping police officers who were performing a traffic stop in front of her house.”

“When Good insisted on her right to stand in her yard, she was arrested, handcuffed, and taken away in a police car. She was later charged with obstructing governmental administration.” Police told Good they didn’t feel safe with her standing behind them recording.

Recently we also witnessed a 14-year-old in Florida get slammed to the ground and put in a choke hold for what amounted to little more than throwing police “dehumanizing stares.”

In essence, the bill, if passed, would allow police to arrest according to their own subjective impulses.

The emergence of the Soviet Union into the 21st century

The words 'Soviet Union' here in America conjures up feelings of Stalinist pride, Lenin, the cold war, Red commies, over opulent Russian oligarchs and the KGB but...in fact no one ever thinks of the accomplishments made by USSR during the Soviet Era.  - A personal favorite of mine is in terms of space exploration. We all know, if it wasn`t for the successes of Soviet Union in space, America and specifically NASA would have never got the foot off the ground. The once mighty USSR in its heyday heralded cutting edge technology of its time and the sheer scale of audacity surely dominated the eastern hemisphere and scared the West, who no undoubtedly 'rejoiced as its formidable enemy was brought to its knees.'

As can be seen recently in the past few years, Vladmir Putin, the current Russian President is bringing some of Russia`s 'Soviet Era' groove back. Russia has become a major power player and power broker in the shaky world of world politics; a force to reckon with now and forever. Its an ideal check to the 'global aspirations' of the West and EU nations. Russia has been delving into the forays into international politics, i.e. Syria, from preventing it becoming another 'Al-CIA-da' sponsored excursion like Libya? - On that note, do you see or hear ANY news on Libya on main-stream media? Well on the ground, its a much different story that no one cares about, the globalist media milked it and its onto the next conflict as they say.

Now, we`ve all heard the news reports of Russian long-range bombers buzzing US skies, or overseas territories, or over defense drills in the Pacific - (all to reiterate it was over international airspace) was spawned into vilifying Russia as an aggressor nation willing to 'challenge' the US with it`s saber rattling. Well, every nation has the right to defend itself and its self interests, and Russia is just re-starting the bomber flights since the Soviet era as their nuclear deterrent - as other countries similarly do.

Recently, it was reported Russian nuke subs will begin to patrol southern seas for first time since the Soviet era. Unofficial government sources stated “this would serve to solve the tasks of strategic nuclear deterrence not only across the North Pole but also the South Pole.” It was reported - "Starting from 2014, Russia is going to expand its strategic submarine patrol area of the World Ocean, a source in the Russian General Staff told Itar-Tass agency. The statement comes as the Russian Northern Fleet – the country’s most powerful – is celebrating the 80th anniversary since its foundation in 1933."

The nuclear-powered Borei-class submarines will form the core of  Russia`s strategic submarine fleet. Each one is fitted with with 16 Bulava nuclear ICBMs with later models fitted with 20. The Borei is an advanced state-of-the-art sub compared to previous generations of submarines. Russia’s first Borei sub - the Yury Dolgoruky, was put into service in January this year with 2 more to come end of the year.

In simple words, this is Vladimir Putin saying, "Check!" As Mark Holland commented: "Russia, China and even Iran are once again showing their independence from the US,...but be careful while the US is not the giant it once was, a wounded lion is far more dangerous then a healthy one."

Loneliness

The end reality of loneliness...

The ever deepening hidden facets to my prodigious 'la familia'

agapegeek.com

Its just a surprising astonishment that where I consider family being the single most thing that`s supposed to bring warmth to the heart and soul is however in reality one of the most destructive elements a person can be exposed to, that causes you to rot from within. The persistent denial, anger, persecution, back-biting and constant disrespect takes its toll on a person when the whole family wages war on them together. There is no escape, no respite despite keeping up appearances when in reality it is utter futile.

The greatest thing now is the amount of disrespect exacted by everyone upon myself. Respect all throughout history was a thing not attainable but commanded or ordained. From the greatest kings to empires, respect existed in all forms as a guide to society. From the older generations to our parents, respect runs high in esteem. American culture at the core as well values respect. But it is the new immigrant class of people coming to this country that trashes the name of respect. To them, respect is people who have the latest iphones, apple computers, mercedes & bmw cars, flashy and dodgy clothes, squabbling who has more wealth or high-paying jobs, having personalities un-becoming of a gentleman from behavior, to mannerisms and hairstyles not commonly seen or accepted by society in general. To them, the pleasures of this world are respect to them. How vain they must be and think that they don`t see the past lessons of history people have endured.

Now, throughout history we are told of 'family' by the greats like Desmond Tutu who said "You don`t choose your family. They are God`s gift to you, as you are to them" or like a Spanish proverb that states that 'an ounce of blood is worth more than a pound of friendship.' However, these statement only make sense to the few utopian families in existence but not all. I can attest to that personally. What good are they to you when they are of in ignorance bliss.

Sooner or later, the burden will eventually break my will which to this day has been shaky at best considering the life events I`m experiencing at this point. Down the road, only time will tell how the story will unfold. The greats in my family have all long passed away, not having to endure the grueling petulance of life currently in our society. Looking back from afar, it is a great shame what society has become. No one learns the lessons of history, for the mighty empires who stood high and fell. For the mighty advancements we contemplate and currently have, there is no respite from the fact we are more at war with our fellow man and sunk into the pleasures of this world as nothing is beyond it.

It surely is a shame, I as the only person share this view and truly see the light at the end of tunnel and can`t relay my message to my family members. I feel more alone and isolated now than anytime in my life. No one can understand that life right now is just mere smoke and mirrors and play has played into it. It surely is tough being unique and loyal to my core values and beliefs as I will never abandon under any threat until my last dying breath. As is in our religion, as commanded by God to the Prophets to their people - to just deliver the message to the people and ultimately it is up the people and God himself to give them the guidance unto the right path.

'Be in the world, but not of it.' For in the end, you are eternally alone before you are born and eternally alone when you die and meet your Creator...
