this site will present a book about one of the most consequential elections in American history–the 2000 White House campaign between George W. Bush and Al Gore. At issue is an historical question:
How did George W. Bush reach the White House? How in the world did he get there?
More specifically, How He Got There will explore the mainstream press corps' poisonous coverage of this history-changing campaign. This book thus discusses a remarkable episode in modern press history–an episode the liberal world has generally failed to explore.

Supercharge your Mind
Posted in Consciousness, Health, Mental health, Mind control,Neuroplasticity, Stress on September 7, 2012 by talesfromthelouIf you are not familiar with neuroplasticity, I encourage you to get familiar with it. It will be one of the main areas of study in this developing century.
BMC and I have been trying this connector all week and we can not explain properly what this device does. But it is significantly beneficial. You will have to try it to believe it. It defragments your brain.
PRESS PLAY
DON’T THINK. It’s impossible to describe. It’s like your brain gets tickled.
Just put it on while you are doing other stuff. Don’t even think about it.
I listen to it through the day at least once. I find it invigorating.
Contributor BMC has this to say: “Takes you to another sphere and gives your brain a massage”.
If you want to find out more about neuroplasticity, please click on the links at the bottom.

Electricity Hiding Behind ‘Dark Matter’?
Posted in Astronomy, Physics, Science on September 17, 2012 by talesfromthelouResearchers working with data from the Planck satellite have detected an intense form of radiation called synchrotron radiationfrom the center of the Milky Way Galaxy – requiring an acceleration of charged particles to energies never imagined by textbook astronomy of the 20th century. Their conclusion: colliding particles of dark matter must be responsible for this observation. It seems they did not know that plasma science pioneer Hannes Alfvén predicted synchrotron radiation from the core of galaxies more than 60 years ago, caused not by “dark matter” but by focused electric discharge.

Tolerance, why not!

libs THE BILL OF RIGHTS WILL SOON BREATHE ITS LAST WITH A STROKE OF OBAMA'S PEN opednews 12-11-11
if the Greek people were to bring down their government, why, The Nexi might lose all that lovely lolly they've striven so hard to steal. If a few other countries got the idea that nations could just waltz away from their sovereign debts, homeowners their fiat-kited mortgages and so on, well, too much of that type of 'moral hazard' and the whole toxic, steaming pile of fiat ka-ka comes crashing down in one big brown landslide.
It's a good thing they banished the word 'Iceland' from their wholly-owned subsidiary, the corporate media (here and in Europe). Wouldn't want the sheeple to get the idea that Iceland had set any kind of a precedent, or something. I mean, those descendents of Vikings and Celts as much as told the banksters to go take a flying fuck in a rolling doughnut before they'd see one crooked krona out of them. The nerve!
Now, the bad news. The other thing all this commotion does is throw sand in The Nexi's gears. They are now on track (they think) to sew up the planet like a drawstring bag... with us inside. These sociopathic fools' globalist dream is to ensure that all of us become so desperate that we will do whatever they say we must do in order to survive. As I write this, the various branches of the MNC (mutlinationals) 'family' are in constant contact with one another as they plot (they don't need to convene a Bilderburg Conference to get 'er done - that';s just a show of force for the Alex Joneses of the world to get het up about) how to deal with the various 'people's eruptions 'in their respective oligarchic corners of the world.
The plain fact is that many of us are awakening from our slumber of the past 150 years; especially the last 30. The super-duper Industrial Age is drawing to a close. With our always sharp 20-20 hindsight, we are now able to see that it was unsustainable from the git-go (1835 being as good a year as any) and oil's reign among men has been severely curtailed by the constant manipulation and conniving by The Nexi to steal, by hook or by crook, the fabulous fruits of the age of ultra-cheap energy.
In short, The Nexi - our Avarice Addicts - our Mavens of Mammon - have pissed away about a third of the three trillion barrels of oil in endless wars and constant interference (bribery, buyouts, intimidation, sabotage and murder, in roughly that order, to name just a few) in innovative improvements on the internal combustion engine model (risibly referred to as the 'marketplace' of ideas). Our cars today get fewer MPGs than did the Model T. The reason for this and a host of other stupid stuff (SUVs) is to use up as much of the oil as possible (and hence string out the return on Nexi investment) before the game is up and the public tumbles to the fact that they have, in fact, been taken for a century-and-a-half-long 'ride.' And that's just the dirty tricks applied to one piece of scientific and technological advances.
Human civilizaton has been with us for a very brief time, geologically speaking: some 6,000 to 10,000 years, depending on one's notion of 'civilization.' For all the history being made, during that period, human population stayed steady at under a billion all the way up to roughly 1850. It then began rising in an ever-steepening incline. Ditto our use of fossil fuels, natural resources and so on. We stand at 7 billion today; one billion of us not being even a glint in daddy's eye until the turn of this millennium. But, population isn't our problem now, inequality is.
For all the trillions upon trillions made as a result of cheap energy, somehow, the mostly Anglo and Hispanic misanthopes - driven by mammon and religious certainty - who have run the world these past 500+ years have not seen fit to share such abundance with the vast majority of humanity. If they weren't enslaving them by brute force, ethnically cleansing the life out of them, screwing them out of their natural resources or, in the modern age, re-enslaving them anew by the white man's specious and sinister magic of fiat money and fractional reserve debt-slavery, they made sure that the conquered tribes never caught a break. While there have been occasional lulls in the unseemly rush to profit off one's fellow man (and woman), mostly we are where we are today because the human mind is not capable of dealing fairly and constructively with overweening power (Rome, America) and its toxic concomitant, boundless wealth.
Human societies also fail whenever they disregard man's essential connection to this Earth (and earth) and one another and, most important, her/his undeniable spirituality*, that je ne sais quoiessential to our finest moments as human beings.
*Not to be confused, or conflated, with his cynical, misogynist, manipulatory, monotheisms.
So, the measure that Obama will sign this week (I will be as happy and as surprised as you if he punts) will allow our increasingly militarized police and paramilitaries that are slowly replacing the duties of the street cops, to act in ways not too different from those of Hitler's SS or East Germany's Stazi. It is amazing for this civil libertarian to witness such onrushing oppression with a rate of descent of the Valkyries. The Nexi know they must have a way to blunt the power of the people - the only power they really fear - whenever push comes to shove; as it inevitably must. Malke no mistake, their aim is to avoid, at all costs, violence. But, if it must be so, they won't shrink away from it.
Now that we've seen open coordination between mayors and governors agreeing on how to 'clean up' (one mayor's way of putting it) the Occupy protestors, there should be little doubt in anyone's mind that The Nexi will do whatever it takes to maintain the chimera of order as long as they possibly can, even as they increase their sway in the world.
Power rarely surrenders power to less power. But, as the mask slips and more of The Nexi'sdreadful plans for us are increasingly revealed (Draconian oppression is hard to hide), they will come to rely more and more on physical coercion instead of that which has worked so well for them since the invention of unions and social causes (as cuckolds and ulterior cover) in the teens and 20s: control of the media, the buying of governments, distraction by lots of shiny toys, manipulation of patriotism, sports and religious fervor, and other devices, ad infinitum.
As nearly as I can determine, these few humans - The Nexi - seem to have no identifiable moral coda that includes the rest of the family of man in it. I believe that the unquenchable lust for power and wealth has always rendered man devoid of introspection, compassion and altruistic principle. How else to explain the consistent cleaving to such amoral, myopic and cavalier response in his behaviour toward those vastly less powerful than himself.
