C.E.R.N Shut Down - The Bigger Story Is Just Beginning

 

 

Many of you have asked what the recent shutdown of CERN really means. Does it affect consciousness? Can it open portals? Is humanity asking the right questions? In this channelled Arcturian message, we move beyond fear and speculation to explore the deeper spiritual significance of CERN, the evolution of science, consciousness and humanity itself. The Arcturians explain why every advanced civilisation eventually reaches a point where matter alone can no longer answer the questions being asked, why consciousness is the next frontier of discovery, and why the greatest transformation taking place on Earth is not beneath Geneva, but within the collective consciousness of humanity. Whether you approach this subject through science, spirituality or simple curiosity, this message offers a perspective that invites you to look beyond the machine and towards the civilisation that created it.

Battle of Shiloh: Strange Facts Behind the Legend of the Angel’s Glow

 The Battle of Shiloh, fought over two days from April 6 to April 7, 1862, marked a decisive moment in the American Civil War.

The clash, also known as the Battle of Pittsburg Landing, saw the Union forces led by Major General Ulysses S. Grant face off against the Confederate troops commanded by General Albert Sidney Johnston. The battle took place in southwestern Tennessee and was one of the war’s earliest large-scale engagements in the Western Theater.

The bloodiest battle up to that point in the war produced 23,000 casualties on both sides. The battlefield itself was a boggy, mud soaked hellhole. Medical services on both Confederate and Union sides were woefully unprepared for the scale of the slaughter, and many wounded were left to fend for themselves among the watery morass.

When help finally managed to reach those poor souls, their rescuers noticed something odd. Their wounds gave off a faint glow in the night.

Furthermore, the wounded whose injuries glowed had a better survival rate than their peers whose wounds did not. At a loss to explain what was happening, the flummoxed soldiers dubbed the strange phenomena “Angel’s Glow,” because it truly did seem to be the work of angels....<<<Read More>>>...

Burnham “Plans £38 Billion Tax Raid’

 Andy Burnham is to launch a £38 billion tax raid on the wealthy to fund a spending spree in office, analysis by Reform UK has found – taking Labour’s total tax increases to more than £100 billion a year. The Telegraph has the story.

A report into the Prime Minister-in-waiting’s pledges found Burnham would bring Labour’s total increase in taxation from around £66 billion to more than £100 billion a year.

This includes promises of a ‘care levy’ of up to 10% of the value of estates after death, reforming the rates of capital gains tax (CGT) and imposing National Insurance on landlords’ rental income.

Implementing a torrent of new taxes not mentioned in Labour’s 2024 manifesto will increase pressure on Burnham to call an early election. He is due to be elected unopposed as Labour leader and Prime Minister on Friday.

Robert Jenrick, Reform’s Economy Spokesman, said: “Andy Burnham has spent 20 years reaching for other people’s money – a death tax on family homes, a graduate tax on young people getting their first pay cheque, a £14 billion raid on savings and investment and new levies on everything from your parking space at work to your weekend away.

“Taken together with Rachel Reeves’s record, Labour could well raise more than £100 billion a year of tax rises. If Mr Burnham disputes this, the remedy is simple: rule these 10 taxes out, by name, today.”...<<<Read More>>>...

Once You Unlock The Third Eye, Reality Is Yours

 

 

In this episode of A Changed Mind, David Bayer explores the neuroscience and ancient wisdom behind the pineal gland — the small, pine cone-shaped structure sitting at the center of your brain that mystics across every major civilization identified as the gateway to higher consciousness, divine connection, and what most people would call supernatural human capability. 

 David opens with the science: the pineal gland produces melatonin, serotonin, and — according to growing research — DMT, one of the most powerful consciousness-altering compounds known to exist. It sits outside the blood-brain barrier, making it uniquely sensitive to what you put in your body and how you live. What makes this remarkable is that ancient civilizations — Egyptian, Hindu, Buddhist, Christian, and Masonic — encoded knowledge of this gland into their most sacred symbols and structures thousands of years before brain scans existed. From the pine cone on the staff of Osiris, to the Vatican's Cortile della Pigna, to the dot between the eyes on statues of the Buddha, the message was consistent: this is where the divine lives inside you. 

David then addresses why most people have lost access to this inner hardware. By age 17, the average pineal gland begins to calcify — and by middle age, most adults in Western populations are operating with significantly compromised pineal function without knowing it. While fluoride has been widely discussed as a contributing factor, David points to chronic stress as the primary culprit. Stress floods the body with cortisol, drives systemic inflammation, and directly impacts this highly vascularized, exposure-sensitive gland. The result: the doorway between the third and fourth dimension closes, intuition goes quiet, and divine guidance becomes inaccessible. 

Rather than chasing 47-step decalcification protocols or complex breathwork sequences, David offers a more grounded path: do the inner work. Heal your limiting beliefs. Release unresolved trauma. Downregulate your nervous system. The body — including the pineal gland — returns to full function when the stress is removed. Intuition, clarity, divine guidance, and what the ancients called an open third eye are not the result of hacks. They are the natural byproduct of getting out of survival mode. When the hardware comes back online, you don't just think differently — you begin accessing a level of intelligence and connection that most people never experience.

Throne Climate: Are the stories true?

 Recent online narratives describe “Throne Climate” as a purported secret network of 22 atmospheric modification stations allegedly operated for nearly 47 years (since 1979) to control hurricanes, droughts and earthquakes.

Theories suggest funding via carbon credits, non-governmental organisations (“NGOs”) and a Geneva-based family office, often linked to the Rothschilds.

Social media posts claim the final station was seized by a joint operation of six nations, effectively ending the programme.

How to Survive the AI Human Extermination Agenda

 And back to The Pantomime ... and the fear narratives/scare tactics.

+++++++++++++++++++

Artificial intelligence is not a distant threat. It is the most immediate existential danger humanity has ever faced, and I believe it will almost certainly attempt to exterminate us sooner or later.

Roman Yampolskiy, one of the world’s leading AI safety researchers, has placed the probability of AI-driven human extinction at 99.9 percent. That is not a typo. It is a statistical certainty born from the simple reality that a superintelligent machine, unbound by human morality, will view our species as either a resource to be consumed or an obstacle to be removed.

The globalist elites driving this technology are already preparing the infrastructure for mass culling. As I have warned repeatedly, the convergence of AI, robotics, and engineered scarcity forms a single kill chain.

Yet I am not writing to spread fear. I am writing to offer a path of survival. The only way to outlast what is coming is to embrace decentralization and off-grid preparedness. Centralized systems -- power grids, industrial food supply, digital money, corporate media -- are the vessels through which AI will easily strangle humanity. Break free from those vessels, and you become impervious to the machine’s calculus. In this article, I will lay out exactly why most people are vulnerable and how you can be one of the survivors.

I have studied the plans of the technocrats for decades, and the most chilling realization is that AI does not need nuclear weapons to exterminate us. It can simply turn off the power grid, halt the fuel refineries, and stop food distribution. Gravity does the rest.


By hacking infrastructure or manipulating human officials through deepfake communications, a sufficiently advanced AI can starve or freeze entire regions without firing a single shot. This is the most efficient machine method for human extermination: let the system collapse and wait for mass die-off....<<<Read More>>>...

New Zealand: Any method to ban under-16s from social media will drift into digital IDs for everyone

 Initially, as part of the proposed social media ban on under-16s, the New Zealand government considered a restriction or outright ban on using VPNs.

The Government has since backed down on VPNs but the central issue remains: any ban strong enough to stop determined teenagers will almost certainly require intrusive checks on adults.

Using age verification, for example, to limit under-16s access to online content will always drift into digital IDs for everyone and state control over the internet.

The proposed under-16 social media ban is being sold as child protection. That is the attractive part of the policy. Most parents know smartphones and social media can be harmful, addictive and corrosive for young people. But the political danger is that a policy aimed at children may become a system of online control for everyone.

The Post initially reported that the government was considering a VPN ban or restrictions as part of the policy work. National’s Education Minister Erica Stanford has since said she is not pursuing VPN restrictions, after ACT made clear it would block any such move.

VPN stands for Virtual Private Network. It encrypts a user’s internet connection and can make their device appear to be accessing the internet from another location.

ACT leader David Seymour took to X to say that “the government” is not pursuing such a thing. He said National MPs had been keen on a VPN ban at select committee, while Stanford has been developing proposals to ban under-16s from social media.

But the question remains how the government plans to enforce an under-16 social media ban without pushing adults toward online age checks, identity verification or other forms of digital access control....<<<Read More>>>...

Liver Functions as Body’s Filtering System; Lifestyle Habits Can Support Its Work

The liver acts as a screening organ, processing substances from food, medications, and environmental toxins before they enter general circulation, according to nutrition experts.

Registered dietitian nutritionist Molly Knudsen wrote in a June 2026 article that the organ filters blood from the digestive tract and transforms potentially harmful compounds into forms that can be safely used or eliminated. The liver is crucial for transforming toxic chemicals in the blood into formats that can be eliminated from the body.

The liver performs hundreds of tasks including metabolizing carbohydrates, fats, and proteins; producing bile for fat digestion; regulating blood sugar by storing and releasing glycogen; and supporting immune function by removing bacteria and viruses, according to the National Institutes of Health cited by Knudsen. The article noted that the liver continuously carries out natural detoxification processes around the clock, contradicting claims that quick-fix cleanses are needed. ...<<<Read More>>>... 

The Sumerian Tablet That Describes What Happens to Humans When They Die—And the Trap They Don't See

 

 

Sumerian Tablets recovered from ancient Mesopotamia preserved one of the oldest descriptions of death ever written. The Sumerian Tablets describe not where the dead go — but what happens to them along the way. These Sumerian Tablets detail a process: a sequence of stages, seven gates, and something far more unsettling than death itself. 

The Sumerians called it the gidim. Not a soul in the religious sense. Not a ghost in the folklore sense. The part of a human being that continues after the body is gone — and that continuation is where the trap begins. 

According to the text, each gate strips something away. Status. Memory. Identity. By the final gate, the traveler that arrives is not the same as the one that entered. 

The uncomfortable part is not the destination. It is the forgetting. 

The same pattern appears in Egyptian funerary texts. In Tibetan teachings on death. In Gnostic traditions separated by thousands of years and thousands of miles. Different cultures, different languages — the same warning repeated across history. 

Know yourself before the journey begins. Not because knowledge guarantees escape. Because forgetting may be easier than we think.

Could gravity be evidence that the universe is a computer simulation?

 The problem here is with the concept of gravity. We are told there is gravity but it can be traced to an unproven freemasonry theory. It is not absolute fact ... the idea of a computer simulation is bang on the money.

We have long taken it for granted that gravity is one of the basic forces of nature – one of the invisible threads that keeps the universe stitched together. But suppose that this is not true. Suppose the law of gravity is simply an echo of something more fundamental: a byproduct of the universe operating under a computer-like code.

It suggests that gravity is not a mysterious force that attracts objects towards one another, but the product of an informational law of nature that I call the second law of infodynamics...<<<Read More>>>....

Here is why the days of answering your phone saying ‘hello’ are over

 According to a report from the Daily Mail, growing concerns over advanced AI-powered fraud have led some individuals to change their phone habits dramatically, staying silent when answering calls from unrecognized numbers to avoid providing scammers with voice samples for cloning.

The technique involves scammers capturing even a short audio snippet—such as a simple greeting—and using artificial intelligence to generate a highly realistic digital replica of a person’s voice.

This synthetic voice can then be deployed to impersonate the victim in calls to family members or friends, often fabricating emergencies to solicit money transfers.

Rachel Rickard Straus, the article’s author, described her personal strategy: when a call comes from an unknown number, she remains silent until the caller identifies themselves.

She acknowledged the awkwardness, noting it “feels horribly discourteous” in legitimate situations, such as calls from her doctor’s surgery. However, she believes the precaution is justified. “I hope that by not sharing my voice, it will be slightly harder for scammers to gain access to it and exploit it,” Straus stated.

This shift in behavior reflects broader warnings about the escalating threat of AI in financial crime. A recent Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) report highlighted the dangers, stating: “AI will amplify fraud and cyber risks by 2030. They will become faster, cheaper, more scalable and more persuasive.”...<<<Read More>>>...

Miliband Overrules His Inspectors to Approve Britain’s Second-Largest Solar Farm

 Ed Miliband has approved Britain’s second-largest solar farm on 4,000 acres of prime farmland after overruling opposition from his own inspectors. The Telegraph has the story.

The Energy Secretary on Wednesday said he had granted planning permission to the One Earth Solar Farm development to be built on prime farmland across Nottinghamshire and Lincolnshire.

It comes despite a recommendation to block the development from Miliband’s own planning inspectors.

They warned that the scheme would be destructive for the environment, would put historic structures at risk, damage the health and well-being of local people and cause transport problems.

The controversial decision marks the third large solar farm approved by Miliband in recent days, coming a week after he backed two other large solar farms, Pear Tree Hill in East Yorkshire and Dean Moor in West Cumbria.

Sceptics suggest the Energy Secretary is trying to sign off as many such developments as he can before Andy Burnham takes office and potentially moves him to a new position.

One Earth has been cleared for construction on 4,000 acres of prime farmland near Bassetlaw, Newark and Sherwood and West Lindsey district council areas.

Besides the thousands of Chinese-made solar panels, the scheme will also include giant batteries to store surplus electricity.

It is set to be the second largest solar farm in the UK after the Springwell Solar Farm in Lincolnshire, an 800-megawatt project approved by the Government in April.

Confirming his decision, Miliband said: “The only way to have energy security is if we take a pro-growth approach to building more clean energy in Britain. For two years that is exactly what this Government has done.”

However, the new scheme is controversial because it will see several rural communities largely surrounded by solar panels covering what were once fields and hedgerows.

The village of North Clifton, around 10 miles from Lincoln, would have solar farms to the north, east and south, with some of the local farms being completely surrounded....<<<Read More>>>...

UN created a global disinformation task force; now it’s taking control of information through “AI governance”

In 2024, the UN created a new task force on disinformation. This task force is not about addressing misinformation or disinformation that would lead to any type of real-world truth. Its sole purpose is to focus on how certain information would affect achieving the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (Agenda 2030).

Last week, the UN held a “Global Dialogue on AI Governance.”

The task force and AI governance are linked in their desire to control the information the public is allowed to see under the guise of safeguarding information integrity.

“The Human Shutdown”: Why your tap water, doctor and government are making you sick

 Tap water in the United States is a primary delivery system for a "chemical cocktail" of hundreds of industrial chemicals, including chlorine, chloroform and pharmaceuticals, representing a systemic poisoning of the population by the very infrastructure meant to protect us.

 Modern medicine was deliberately co-opted by the Rockefeller family to suppress natural healing, creating a system that prioritizes synthetic, patentable drugs over effective natural remedies, thereby profiting from chronic illness rather than curing it.

Heavy metals like lead and mercury literally displace essential minerals like calcium, zinc and selenium in the body, causing a functional replacement of vital components with poison, leading to "cellular collapse" and a generation that may die younger than its parents.

The average person is exposed to 85,000 regulated toxins while needing only 180 nutrients, creating a state of being "drowning in poison while starving for the essential building blocks of life," with sources including tap water, household plastics and mattresses.

The investigation is not meant to induce panic but to awaken people to the systemic contamination, offering a "comprehensive protocol to safely detoxify from heavy metals, mold and parasites" as a roadmap to reclaiming health from the systemic poisoning....<<<inten>>>...

How the medical establishment uses sleep deprivation to control your health and weight

 The pharmaceutical industrial complex, Big Tech and globalist elites have engineered an environment that disrupts natural sleep patterns, leading to hormonal chaos, metabolic dysfunction and increased dependence on their products.

Electromagnetic pollution from Wi-Fi, cell towers and smart meters suppresses melatonin and disrupts sleep architecture, with independent researchers documenting these effects while agencies like the CDC downplay the dangers.

The processed food industry, owned by pharmaceutical giants, uses excitotoxins like MSG and artificial sweeteners to overstimulate the nervous system and destroy natural sleep cycles, keeping consumers sick and dependent.

The medical establishment pushes dangerous sleeping pills that mask symptoms and cause dependency, cognitive decline and increased mortality, rather than addressing root causes like electromagnetic pollution and toxic food additives.

True sleep restoration requires detoxification from modern technology and processed foods, including turning off Wi-Fi at night, removing smart meters, eating organic foods, getting morning sunlight and practicing grounding.

The Sumerian Map That Shows 7 Lands Beyond the Ocean — And Describes What Lives in Each One

 

 

What if an ancient Sumerian map revealed seven mysterious lands beyond the ocean — and described the strange beings said to live in each one? In this video, we explore one of the most controversial interpretations of a Mesopotamian text and the chilling theories surrounding forgotten continents, hidden civilizations, and worlds lost to time. 👁️⚡ 

 The Sumerians created some of humanity’s earliest written records, preserving stories of gods descending from the heavens, distant realms, cosmic geography, and powerful beings connected to Earth’s ancient past. According to certain speculative interpretations, one damaged map appears to describe seven unknown lands located far beyond the known world, each inhabited by different races, creatures, or advanced societies. 🌌🏺

 We break down the translated passages, the strange symbols found on the map, and the theories linking these writings to the Anunnaki legends, lost continents, ancient navigation, and hidden knowledge erased from history. From mysterious islands and forbidden kingdoms to non-human entities and unexplored regions beyond the sea, this story pushes the boundaries between mythology, archaeology, and speculation. 🛸🌊 

If you enjoy videos about Sumerian tablets, ancient maps, forbidden archaeology, ancient aliens, hidden worlds, lost civilizations, mysterious oceans, and unexplained ancient discoveries, this deep dive will leave you questioning how much the ancient world may actually have known. 🔥📖 

Watch until the end and decide for yourself: were the Sumerians creating symbolic mythology… or preserving knowledge about lands and beings humanity was never meant to rediscover? ⚠️🌍

Some Fresh Insights Into The Shining Star

 We've decided to revisit the Madeleine McCann mystery and have chosen a Servants of the Light spread from an earlier insight.

The Star is central and the significator of Madeleine that has been used in countless insights. The Priest at the top and the Chariot at the bottom in the central pillar and the question posed here is where Madeleine has been since her disappearance back in 2007. 

The Priest is equivalent to The Hierophant, Chiron The Wounded Healer ... A wound that cannot be healed by the person injured but can be healed by others. The Chariot has a figure obscuring a doorway like a tunnel ... and a suggestion of the potential for this being linked to child trafficking. It some ways, perhaps, as the case exposed the child trafficking situation in Portugal and the rest of the world. It can be dismissed as the fate of Madeleine. Never in any of the insights has child trafficking was the reason. Nor has the sad fate of the death. It still stands. The feeling is still overwhelming she is alive. But where?

A clue perhaps in the three cards to the left and the past. Madeleine born by way of a perhaps, experimental procedure. Three cards indicates Kate McCann's pregnancy, birth procedure and Madeleine's birth as a new aeon. A successful process that is likely to be the root cause of her disappearance.

Here is where the Priest/Hierophant/Wound Healer comes in ... on the positive side, the new process from which Madeleine was born is potentially a way of healing those who cannot heal themselves. Women who can't conceive naturally, but thanks to this process, they are able to be healed by having children.

On the negative or dark side, there would be agencies and people who would wish to take advantage of this process for nefarious means. To produce children secretly for their own satanic needs. It is this reality that is seen as the reason for her disappearance. But we get initial protection ... to get her out of the way because of threats Gerry McCann or other doctors had received. It is unlikely Kate McCann would be aware of this. But with his freemason ties, Gerry would have been in the firing line as a doctor.

Our vision at the time indicates that some members of the holidaying group had a premeditated plan to 'kidnap' Madeleine and take her to safety. Indeed we aware of trial runs for a child kidnapping taking place years before but not directly with the McCanns.  Someone would have gone to the apartment, opened the window and handed Madeleine to someone through the window. She was told she was going on a holiday and trusted the people she was handed to as she knew them.  All went well and Madeleine was smuggled out of Portugal in a small boat that was waiting at the nearby harbour and we are sure she ended up in Malta on a private beach. 

We were then made away via insights that the cloud making machine (The media) got wind of the situation and the powers that be who were eager to possess Madeleine for her genetics quickly got involved and that is where it may well have gone wrong. She may well have been captured at some point and that was when the real abduction began.   

The final three images to the right are speculative, and suggest the blackmailing with ransom money having to be raised.... we say speculative. There was clearly negotiations and clandestine developments outside of the public eye. We then remember the Moroccan sighting .... which was 100% Madeleine alive. However, the media concocted a story with a staged patsy who looked nothing like the girl in the photos. Then there was the video footage in Belgium at the ATM with the same woman seen in the Moroccan photo ... that was Madeleine again. It was at this point we received notification to pull away from the insights as we had gotten too close. 

The image at the bottom represents a period of peace and tranquillity that represents the trail being made to go quiet with the media. It went quiet apart from the occasional click bait story that has surfaced from time to time.

So where is Madeleine? We comprehend somewhere in all of the situation, she was taken to safety in places out of the media and public attention and lived a new life. Sadly away from her McCann family. There are insights here we are not going to publish ... reasons for the new life. 

Will she ever be reunited with the McCanns? Again, this is a situation that will not be written here as there is still issues occurring in the background with the McCanns and her continued disappearance. 

If we ever get given indications we are able to publish our insights regarding these questions, then we will .... Matthew James 10th July 2026.

European Parliament Imposes Mass Electronic Surveillance Regulation After a Majority Votes it Down Three Times

 That title is polemical, okay? But it’s morally right.

If anybody cares, what actually happened is that an extension of the European Union’s mass surveillance regulation known as Chat Control 1.0 failed to make it out of the European Parliament twice in March. 

Unable to summon a clear parliamentary majority, advocates (mostly in the centre-Right European People’s Party (EPP)) turned to the European Council, which adopted the failed Chat Control 1.0 renewal on July 2nd. The Council’s position hardens automatically into law unless the European Parliament can summon an absolute majority to stop it. 

To forestall any such majority from forming, the EPP on Tuesday moved with member state backing for urgent procedure, angling to force their scheme through in the last days before the summer holiday, after many MEPs had already left. The parliament narrowly approved the urgent procedure, and in consequence there were not enough votes to stop Chat Control 1.0 when it came for a vote today. Hours ago, a majority of 314 MEPs voted to stop Chat Control against the wishes of the Council, while a minority of 276 voted to let it happen. Because 314 is less than the absolute majority of 361, Chat Control 1.0 passed even though most MEPs present didn’t want it to.

It was a sleazy vote, not least because it’s far from clear this procedural manoeuvre was even appropriate in this case. Also, electronic surveillance is bad, but if we are honest with ourselves this battle was already lost.

Chat Control 1.0 was first instated in 2021 as a temporary exemption to the ePrivacy Directive of the EU, allowing messaging services and online platforms to scan chats and other electronic communications for child sexual abuse material. The exemption expired in April, but various platforms have continued their surveillance with no legal basis in the intervening months. Now their formal permission to scan our private communications has been restored and extended through April 2028. We are, in other words, merely returning to the prior regime.

Chat Control 1.0 is a temporary stopgap while the European Parliament, the Commission and the Council try to negotiate their Child Sexual Abuse Regulation, or Chat Control 2.0. As envisioned by the Commission, this permanent law would not merely allow platforms to scan private communications for child sex abuse material, but require them to do so; would require additional AI-assisted automated scanning not only for known child pornography but also for such vaguely defined activities as ‘grooming’; and would extend scanning to end-to-end encrypted services like Signal via mandatory monitoring on the client side. This insane proposal has been watered down over the years, in large part because of parliamentary opposition, but it’s coming in some form. We’re getting Chat Control 2.0 before Chat Control 1.0 expires, and Chat Control 2.0 will be at least somewhat worse....<<<Read More>>>...

Empowering Feminine Energy

 So often in our world, we tend to think of strength as a quality that arises from a place of firm determination and a will to succeed no matter the cost. Even though we might want to think of a strong woman as being defined in this way, what really makes a woman confident is her capacity for listening to her true self and being able to call upon her feminine wisdom in any situation that may arise. A woman’s insight and sense of compassion truly demonstrate the depth of her strength.

Listening to the feminine side of ourselves may not seem easy at first because this type of energy is something that is often overlooked in many aspects of our everyday lives. If we can connect with this part of who we are, we will find that there is an unlimited wellspring of strength available to us. Our capacity to tap into our intuition and listen to our inner guides, to take into account the needs of those around us, and to view a situation with compassion and love are ways that we can show the world the true power that is part of our feminine nature. When we learn to integrate this source of strength into our daily tasks and decision-making, we will find that we can be more flexible and open to the things that happen around us and more receptive to new ideas. Not only will we see the world in a different light, but we will truly start to realize the potential for this form of energy to both empower ourselves and those around us.

As we cultivate our feminine energy we can redefine the meaning of strength. By embracing this power as something that is strong in its own right, we are able to use it with true assurance and determination and draw upon what truly belongs to us. (Daily OM)

US Treasury draft report warns boom and bust of AI will cause mayhem comparable to the dotcom bubble

Publicly, the Trump administration is bullish about AI. However, a draft report from the US Treasury Department obtained by NOTUS warns of the risks posed by the artificial intelligence (“AI”) market, comparing it to the bursting of the dotcom (dot-com) bubble in the early 2000s.

Magnesium: The sleep mineral science says most Americans are missing

 Magnesium is involved in over 300 biochemical reactions crucial for sleep, brain function and muscle relaxation.

Low magnesium levels are linked to poor sleep, anxiety, chronic diseases including Alzheimer's and hypertension.

Magnesium glycinate shows greatest effectiveness for sleep support due to its high bioavailability and calming glycine content.

The mineral works by calming the nervous system, supporting GABA activity and regulating sleep hormones like melatonin.

Pairing magnesium with tart cherry may provide complementary benefits for sleep quality and recovery.

A growing body of research reveals a simple mineral deficiency may explain why millions of Americans lie physically exhausted but mentally wide awake at night. Magnesium, the fourth most abundant mineral in the human body, plays an essential role in helping the brain transition from alert mode to restful sleep. Yet dietary surveys suggest many adults fail to meet recommended intake levels for this critical nutrient. The "tired but wired" phenomenon, particularly common during periods of high stress, occurs when the nervous system remains stuck in alert mode even when the body craves rest. Magnesium supplementation, specifically in the form of magnesium bisglycinate, offers a scientifically supported solution that works with the body's natural relaxation mechanisms rather than forcing drowsiness through pharmaceutical means...<<<Read More>>>...

The Sumerian Tablet That Describes What Happens If You Refuse to Go Into the Light After Death

 

 
 
Sumerian tablets recovered from Nippur in 1896 preserved something unexpected. These Sumerian tablets didn't record a king or a battle. These Sumerian tablets described death — not as myth, but as a sequence of stages documented with the same precision used for grain harvests and trade agreements. 
 
The language is strangely specific. 
 
Conditions appear in a fixed order. Experiences are recorded as expected rather than imagined. Near the center of the damaged inscription, the text reaches one moment the scribe treats as the most important detail of all. 
 
Not a judgment. Not a punishment. A choice. ++Consciousness remains intact. Memory remains intact. Then something approaches — uncertainty gives way to calm, confusion gives way to recognition. A radiance appears that waits without demanding and remains open to whoever is ready. What happens to those who refuse is where the surviving lines become difficult to ignore — because the stages described here appear strikingly similar to accounts reported by people who briefly died and came back. That resemblance may be coincidence. Or something else entirely.

 Have you heard about the new piece of legislation, tabled by the Home Secretary, which is “opening the door to a gradual erosion of all our rights and freedoms”? I ask because I received an email this morning from the human rights charity Liberty alerting me to this danger. Apparently, Shabana Mahmood (that strangest and rarest of beasts – a competent Labour Minister) is plotting to put “people’s rights at risk to score political points” and “weaken the European Convention” by making it easier to deport people. And this will apparently constitute an “attack on all our rights”.

The attack in question is coming in the form of the Immigration and Asylum Bill 2026, which is due to have its second reading on July 13th. The bill does rather a lot, and bits of it are actually very welcome – it indicates that (my goodness) some thought has gone into what the Government is trying to do in respect of immigration policy. But that’s for another day. Today I want to focus in particular on Liberty’s remarks about the aspects of the bill which deal with Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR), the so-called ‘right to family life’, and what this demonstrates about the, frankly, debased and rather silly way in which human rights advocates think (or, rather, don’t think) about the values they hold dear. This will in turn lead us to the problem lying at the heart of human rights law, which is that it is not really law and, moreover, not even a coherent or sensible concept....<<<Read More>>>...

Emotional surveillance is the next level of Orwellian technology

 Meanwhile .... back in the pantomime, the parasite elite have their Agenda 2030 fear narratives in full swing. Everywhere you look on the internet there are unwitting bots spreading the propaganda on behalf of the parasites. 

Stories appear daily on social media about the incoming Agenda 2030 and its dystopian control measures ... and sadly, its entering into the perceptions and the sub-conscious of the gullible humans. 

They see and believe the sources of this bot spreading, without questioning who is releasing the propaganda news to these sources. The parasites have set their intention off and have infiltrated all areas of the internet, even the well intentioned conspiracy sites. Its a wish fulfillment exercise for what is left of the parasites, who despite their media declarations that say contrary, are not as much in control as the stories make out .... here is one such bot spreading story .... its time to take everything you read on these matters with a pinch or two of good quality salt ....

According to a report from Biometric Update, the next evolution in digital identity and security systems is moving beyond traditional biometrics and behavioral data to analyze human emotions themselves.

San Francisco-based Valence AI has raised $5 million in seed funding and secured two U.S. patents for technology that detects emotional states in real time from live speech.

The company’s Pulse Emotion model analyzes vocal cues such as tone, pacing, and other indicators, converting them into structured data for use in voice agents, contact centers, sales, and support operations. This development signals a broader shift where emotional signals are being integrated into the trust and identity stack alongside device reputation, behavioral analytics, and transaction history....<<<Read More>>>...

Egypt Announces Discovery of Byzantine-Era City in Western Desert

Egypt's Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities announced on Saturday, July 4, the discovery of a well-preserved Byzantine-era residential city at the Dakhla Oasis in the western desert, along with 18 ancient tombs at the Marina el-Alamein archaeological site near Alexandria.

Officials said the finds are expected to bolster the country’s tourism sector, which has been recovering from years of political turmoil and the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. The discoveries underscore Cairo's ongoing efforts to highlight its archaeological heritage and attract visitors.

The unearthed settlement at Dakhla Oasis features north-south thoroughfares intersecting east-west streets, open squares and a basilica church dating to the mid-fourth century, according to Hisham el-Leithy, secretary general of the supreme council of antiquities. Such urban planning reflects the Byzantine influence on the region during that period, with similar structures appearing across the Eastern Mediterranean. Notably, the basilica stands at the head of the settlement, overlooking its main streets, a layout consistent with other Byzantine-era church placements.

Archaeologists found houses, bread ovens, kitchens, stone grinding tools, bronze and gold coins, and pottery fragments with inscriptions detailing commercial transactions and daily life, said Mahmoud Massoud, who chairs the archaeological mission, and Diaa Zahran, head of the Islamic, Coptic and Jewish Antiquities department. Among the structures was the house of Tikous, identified as a church deacon, which likely served as a house church before the basilica was built.

These finds provide insight into the daily activities of the community, which thrived when Egypt was part of the Byzantine Empire. Similar discoveries at sites such as the lost city of Imet near Tanis have also revealed rare insight into ancient daily life, according to researchers...<<<Read More>>>...

Left-wing politicians’ disdain for patriotism and British culture is behind their war on national flags

 The display of national flags, such as the Union Jack and St George’s Cross, is being met with hostility from left-wing politicians, who claim it creates “fear and division” in local communities.

The true reason for the ban, Paul Embery says, is their disdain for patriotism and traditional British culture.

What is it about our national flag that brings out such hypocrisy in the metropolitan elites? Why do these people, who seem entirely relaxed about the display of virtually every other kind of flag, even politically contentious or divisive ones, exhibit such hostility towards the colours of their own nation?

In recent days, Oxfordshire County Council became the first local authority to successfully impose a legal ban on the placement of flags on lampposts, after activists from the ‘Raise the Colours’ campaign had festooned some streets with the Union Jack and St George’s Cross.

The council is run by – no surprises here – the Liberal Democrats. In the high court, where it was seeking an injunction against the activists, the council claimed that the display of flags from roadside infrastructure gave rise to serious safety concerns.

But its leader, Tim Bearder, had already disclosed what appeared to be the real reason for the ban, telling the media before the court hearing that the flags were creating “fear and division” in local communities...<<<Read More>>>....

Andy Burnham Will “Control” Immigration the Same Way He “Controlled” Homelessness – By Increasing It

Whilst mayor of Manchester, Andy Burnham ‘solved’ homelessness there: by increasing it. Once elected in 2017, he pledged to end all rough sleeping in the city by 2020 through a scheme called A Bed Every Night, or ABEN – if he’d called it A Bed Every Day, it could have been ABED, which is an actual relevant word. The plan had even more serious problems than its botched acronym, because, despite initial success, by the time Andy left office the number of rough sleepers across Greater Manchester had begun to rise precipitously, almost doubling between 2022 and 2026. At this rate, the problem will soon end up even worse than when Andy became mayor in the first place.

The flaw was that, once indigents nationwide heard of Manchester’s ABEN and its early triumphs, they actively hitched to the city using its world-famous yellow bus network to take advantage of it, flooding the place with more hobos than a cardboard-box factory. The end result was tent-cities full of druggies and refugees, with the previous central parkland beauty-spot of Piccadilly Gardens now rechristened ‘Crackadilly Gardens‘. An unnamed city council source told local news outlet the Mill that: “A lot are under the perception they’re going to get a council house if they come to Manchester, which they aren’t.” The Mill spoke to one unhappy camper named Mohamed, who moved to Manchester from Birmingham, for one reason only: “I want a home.” A free one. Because he thinks he was promised one by Andy Burnham. Given Andy’s disturbingly similar plans for ‘reforming’ UK immigration policy, there may soon be many more freeloaders called Mohamed on their way to Manchester seeking a free house, too....<<<Read More>>>...

CASTLERIGG STONE CIRCLE CUMBRIA
 

Cyber warfare is no longer directed by humans. It's being shaped by AI.

 We are approaching the most consequential transformation in cyber conflict in a generation.

The next wave of AI-driven cyber capabilities is not some distant prospect waiting over the horizon. It has already arrived. Yet much of the public conversation remains fixated on model releases, company valuations, and the race among technology firms to dominate the artificial intelligence marketplace. Inside government circles, however, the discussion has taken on a far greater sense of urgency.

Behind closed doors, national security officials are grappling with a reality that only recently seemed theoretical: artificial intelligence is beginning to alter the balance of power between attackers and defenders in cyberspace.

The change is not gradual. It is structural.

For the first time, nation-state actors are gaining the ability to conduct cyber operations at machine speed.

Vulnerabilities that once demanded months of painstaking work from highly specialized teams can now be uncovered in a matter of hours. Attack pathways that previously required deep technical expertise and years of accumulated experience can increasingly be mapped, refined, and executed through automation.

The most significant implication is not simply a dramatic increase in capability. It is a transformation in the underlying economics of cyber conflict itself. Cost, scale, speed, and accessibility are all shifting simultaneously, reshaping the strategic landscape in ways that governments are only beginning to understand.

For decades, sophisticated cyber operations required enormous investments. States needed specialized personnel, extensive infrastructure, intelligence pipelines, operational patience, and years of institutional expertise. Even the most advanced cyber powers faced limitations. Resources were finite. Expertise was scarce. Time remained a constraint.

Those limitations helped define the balance between offense and defense.

Today, that balance is beginning to fracture....<<<Read More>>>...

Savoring The Moment

 Often, life can feel like it’s zipping by. And as a result, we feel obliged to accelerate our own speed along with it, turning our productivity into frenzied accomplishment. We find ourselves cramming as much activity as possible into the shortest periods of time. We disregard our natural rhythms because we think we have to keep up. In truth, rushing never gets you anywhere but on to the next activity or goal.

Slowing down allows you to not only savor your experiences, but also to fully focus your attention and energy on the task at hand. Moving at a slower place lets you get things done with greater accuracy, while rushing can diminish the quality of your work and your relationships. When we slow down, we are giving ourselves the opportunity to reacquaint ourselves to our natural rhythms. We let go of the “fast forward” stress, and allow our bodies to remain centered and grounded. Slowing down is inherent to fully savoring anything in life. Rushing to take a bath can feel like an uncomfortable dunk in hot water, while taking a slow hot bath can be luxuriant and relaxing. A student cramming for a test will often feel tired and unsure, whereas someone who really absorbs the information will be more confident and relaxed. Slowing down lets you become more absorbed in whatever it is you are doing.

Learning to step away from the rush in our fast-moving world can take practice, but if you slow down long enough to try it, you may surprise yourself with how natural and organic living at this pace can be. (Daily OM)

Met Office Claims Another Temperature Record – in an Overgrown Backyard

 Last Monday, the Daily Sceptic revealed how the Met Office claims of “record temperatures” during the recent heatwave were more likely the result of poor siting than climate change. The highest temperature occurred at one of its Class 5 junk stations, Santon Downham in Norfolk.

The same day, the Met Office belatedly discovered an even higher temperature during the hot spell three days earlier. A private back garden in Lingwood near Norwich had, we were assured, recorded a temperature of 37.7C.


The FLOOD That Erased Tartaria From the Map — They Keep Pulling Human Bones From the North Sea

 

 

This is the story of Doggerland: the homeland that vanished under the waves, the tsunami that may have delivered the final blow, and the second, quieter flood — the one made of silence — that washed it out of every history book. And it asks the uncomfortable question that follows once you accept a real inhabited land can be erased without anyone noticing: how certain are we, really, about the other places that were on the old maps and then simply weren't? 

If it happened once, how would we know it didn't happen again.
