While I have no dispute of Jim's numbers as up front, they have gone governmental. Look closely at the budget. Decide for yourself.

News is just noise - Tune it out Post Date: 2012-04-07 07:01:42 by Tatarewicz

There is such a thing as information overload. And in this high-speed digital age, I think we're all affected by it in some way. On more than a few occasions lately, I've heard this sentiment echoed in various ways... The first came from an essay simply titled Avoid News by Rolf Dobelli, a Swiss novelist and entrepreneur who also has a show on Bloomberg in Germany. His take is that news is to the mind what sugar is to the body. By trying to consume so many fleeting headlines we get distracted, stifle critical thinking, and fill ourselves with anxiety and despair. Oakland shooting. Treyvon Martin. Tornadoes. Syria. Iran. Obamacare. Primaries. Debates. ...
CoastToCoastAM - The Seth Material: Post Date: 2012-04-07 06:33:52 by Tatarewicz

The Seth Material: On Thursday night, author, educator, and OBE expert, Rick Stack, discussed the Seth material, as channeled by Jane Roberts into numerous books. He personally attended over 100 Seth sessions given in Jane Roberts' classes in Elmira, NY in the 1970s. Seth, a non-physical entity, who spoke through Jane, is credited by many to have kicked off the New Age movement, with his central thesis that you create your own reality (which is similar to more recent 'Law of Attraction'). Seth said that our own thoughts, emotions, and beliefs construct our reality, and there is now scientific evidence that the power of thought can affect matter, Stack pointed out. Seth also ...

Spinach Is a Dish Best Served Cooked Post Date: 2012-04-07 00:39:37 by Tatarewicz

If spinach has the reputation of being the homework of vegetables, it was not helped by its 70s revival in the form of raw spinach salads. Spinach has many charms truly singular flavor, the ability to be transformed by cooking in myriad ways, its famous health benefits but salad is probably the least convincing. Here, spinach undergoes four completely distinct treatments: superfast wilting in a pan; not-much- slower steaming in a pot; braised and almost a full meal; and superslow, a technique I really love, and one that results in astonishingly fine creamed spinach and the like. (These are generally so high-fat that they effectively neutralize ...

The Wolfson Economics Prize finalists were just announced, and amongst the financial experts and analysts, an honorable mention was awarded to someone with only an elementary education. Here's the recipient's impressive story: Jurre Hermans, a 10-year-old boy from the Netherlands (11-years-old now), had written a letter expressing his concern over the Euro crisis. Moreover, that letter also included his version of a viable solution that would allow the Greek government to pay off its debt. In a brilliantly written letter the young boy maps out his clever and petty tyrannical! loan repayment system to follow suit once Greece leaves the Euro. Even more impressive, ...

French "terrorist" killings a Sarkozy election false flag? Post Date: 2012-04-05 04:40:31 by Tatarewicz

Is the assassinated 'Islamic terrorist' a French pre-election operation by ruling president? Suspicions appeared in the media that the story about the "Islamic terrorist" Mohamed Merah was actually a pre-election special operation by the ruling French president Sarkozy, in which 8 innocent people were killed by French secret services on the order of Sarkozy. Mohamed Merah was actually framed, then killed to shift the blame on him for killing three soldiers and four Zionists in France, launch a campaign on "fighting Islamic terrorism" and, against this background, to win the upcoming presidential elections in France. The lawyer of the father of Mohamed Merah ...
'O.J. Is Innocent And I Can Prove It': In New Book, P.I. William Dear Claims O.J. Simpson's Son Was The Killer Post Date: 2012-04-04 11:07:59 by christine

Ojsimpson In his new book, private investigator William Dear claims to have circumstantial evidence that suggests O.J. Simpson did not kill Nicole Brown or Ron Goldman. It's often said that the only certainties in life are death and taxes. But you can add "rehashing of the O.J. Simpson case" to that list -- at least for the last 18 years. So it should come as no surprise that a new book has been published about the 1994 murders of Simpson's ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend, Ron Goldman. In 1995, a California jury acquitted O.J. Simpson of the killings. A civil lawsuit, later filed by the victims' families, resulted in a 1997 judgment finding Simpson ...

Healing & Cells: On Tuesday's show, biophysicist Dr. Joyce Hawkes discussed her process and journey as a healer. She revealed how an NDE changed her from being rooted solely in science to being open to the teachings of shamans and healers. During the near-death experience which happened to her in the 1970s, "everything was so beautiful visually and comfortable emotionally in every way that the absorption in that moment was all there was," before her consciousness was abruptly returned to her body, she said. After the NDE, she began to discover she had the ability to remotely perceive things like the physical and cellular condition of other people, and a gift for ...

A Colorado man was sentenced to five years' probation after accidentally shooting a woman whose red mohawk he mistook for a fowl that had been harassing his cats. Derrill Rockwell, 49, told police that he grabbed his .22-caliber rifle and set out from his home Oct. 5 to fire at the bird after spotting it at the top of a hill about 90 feet away, the Daily Sentinel reported Friday. "His intent was to spook it away," Deputy District Attorney Jason Conley told District Judge Richard Gurley on Friday, according to the newspaper. But after shooting at the bird, the man said he noticed it didn't fly away and he reported hearing a woman moaning in pain. Rockwell soon ...

Bluegrass great Earl Scruggs dead at 88 (CNN) -- Earl Scruggs, whose distinctive picking style and association with Lester Flatt cemented bluegrass music's place in popular culture, died Wednesday of natural causes at a Nashville hospital, his son Gary Scruggs said. He was 88. "I realize his popularity throughout the world went way beyond just bluegrass and country music," Gary Scruggs told CNN. "It was more than that." For many of a certain age, Scruggs' banjo was part of the soundtrack of an era on "The Ballad of Jed Clampett" -- the theme song from the CBS sitcom "The Beverly Hillbillies," which aired on CBS from 1962 to 1971 and for ...

Of these groups, 334 were militias, marked with an asterisk, and the remainder includes common-law courts, publishers, ministries and citizens groups.

The list was compiled from field reports, Patriot publications, the Internet, law ...

Germany's Local says learn Deutsch - ward off dementia Post Date: 2012-03-31 02:50:58 by Tatarewicz

Ex-pats in Germany who are putting off language lessons have just been handed another reason to dive in and learn Deutsch - speaking a second language keeps dementia symptoms at bay, scientists say. Daily newspaper Die Welt reported on Friday that years of speaking two or more languages can have a physical effect on the brain, as years of stashing extra vocabulary increases memory. As the brain ages, the capacity developed to think in another language means it can call on its increased memory-bank to stem the onset of mentally degenerative diseases such as Alzheimers. While it may seem daunting, learning German could hold back dementia symptoms for three to four years in an ...
