Alarmists base their hysteria on temperature trends. Everything is getting

occurring is unexceptional and natural.
However, apart from fabricated temperature records, there is another reason
why alarmism is wrong in its reliance on phony temperature records.

Trump vs. the CIA
arclein at Terra Forming Terra - 22 hours ago
We have every reason to suspect that the CIA has been complicit in the
assassination of JFK, MLK, and Bobby. We suspect that they are complicit
in the heroin trade to produce black funds. All this was part of day to day
business as usual as applied elsewhere.
More recently they were also complicit in 9/11 and many other major events
of a similar nature. If not where were they then?
The simple solution is to shut it all down and turn over all such duties to
military intelligence which should have done all this in the first place.
Core training is the same and they are way more ... more »

2 Successful protocols have now been demonstrated elsewhere.

As my readerrs know, we have pulled together specific evidence for mastery

us that test vessels would have been built in the fifties and that large
Earth Orbit vessels around 1980.
Such a Space Bombardment Fleet exists today and remains secret. Both
obvious staffing problems and financing problems have been defined here and
their solution uncovered. This is the BIG Secret of the USA military and

Royal Court of Kusa With Richard Thornton
arclein at Terra Forming Terra - 22 hours ago
[image: A Creek architect in the royal court of Kusa]
Kuso had 3000 homes or 3000 familes or approxomately 12000 to 15000
inhabitants when Desoto came through. Add in a matching number of farm
families along the valley sides and this suggests a population of as much
as 50,000 in this valley complex.
Add in the nearby valley that dominated them and we have another 50,000.
Throw in smallr tributary valleys and we can hope to house populations
reaching 250,000.
These are educated guesses but that looks about right for this particular
polity. It should have been eas... more »
The Reality Principle
director@ieet.org (IEET) at Ethical Technology - 22 hours ago
Amongst the criticisms often directed at transhumanist ideas, one of the
most common is the prediction that access to the technologies on which it
depends will mostly be limited to a small affluent minority. This veritable
“apartheid by technology” would create a divide into the commonality of the
human race, and produce two or more human classes moving at different
speeds, which would be the source of inequality and new forms of
exploitation.

(c) nice tropical tourism destination for their people,
(d) both have quarrel over a small island that's obviously closer to Japan
than China, so both have issues over international rule of law,
(e) both have ageing population, so both would need an infusion of young
migrant labor from the PH, today or tomorrow.

Corruption Perceptions Index scored below 50 on a scale between 0

on governments to urgently introduce deep-rooted systemic reforms to

Trump-- Already Making America Less Safe With His Adderall-Fueled Twitter Feuds

Wednesday, Mexico's president, Enrique Peña Nieto, announced he was
thinking about canceling his meeting with Señor el Presidente Trumpanzee in
Washington next week, as a matter of Mexican national pride. Within hours,
Thursday morning, he tweeted that he canceled the meeting with the
deranged, Adderall-addicted orange orangoutang. Trumpanzee, a pathological
liar unable to control himself even at this high a level, claims the idea
to cancel the meeting was his own since Peña Nieto was once again refusing

"Soul"

"There is a moment early in Stefan Zweig's "The Post Office Girl" when the
eponymous heroine has a moment of illumination: "In this instant, shaken to
her very depths, this ecstatic human being has a first inkling that the
soul is made of stuff so mysteriously elastic that a single event can make
it big enough to contain the infinite." Two interesting thoughts here.
First, that the soul is elastic. This is a rather different notion of the
human soul than the one I was raised with. We were taught that the soul-
the essential self- is created fully formed at the... more »
