Former NASA Official Debunks Alien UFOs: ‘Nobody Is Visiting Us’

 In a time filled with UFO conspiracy theories, a former NASA official is pushing back against claims of alien visits to Earth. Joseph Gutheinz, a retired NASA investigator and current attorney, says science—not speculation—should guide the discussion.

“Prove it. Honestly, prove it,” he challenges UFO believers. “They’ve been claiming that there have been UFOs since the 1940s. And, you know, Area 51 supposedly houses UFOs. Have someone go in, look at Area 51.”

During his NASA career, Gutheinz often heard wild claims. “I would regularly get calls from individuals who believed they were abducted or had a chip in their brain from aliens,” he said.

His response? “The possibility of anybody coming from another world to visit us was beyond unlikely… See a psychiatrist.”...<<<Read More>>>....

 

Starmer to Count Rural Broadband as Defence Spending to Get Round NATO Rules

 Keir Starmer is set to count rural broadband and Heathrow’s third runway as defence spending to circumvent NATO rules as the Government makes plans to redraw the definition of national security. The Telegraph has the story.

The Government’s national security review, due to be published before a NATO summit next week, will expand the definition to include economic stability, food prices, supply chains, crime and the internet.

It could allow the UK to hit NATO’s new defence spending target of 5% of GDP without committing any further public money.

Mark Rutte, NATO’s Secretary General, has proposed member states spend 3.5% on core defence activities and a further 1.5% on related infrastructure.

Ministers are considering meeting the latter target by spending money on roads, strengthening bridges and increasing runway capacity, the Telegraph understands.

Cyber, energy and telecommunications security projects will also be offset against the goal.

While NATO countries will still be required to hit 3.5% of core defence spending each year – far higher than Sir Keir’s current pledge of 3% by the next Parliament – the additional 1.5% will come from other budgets....<<<Read More>>>....

Why Do Sceptics Abandon Scepticism When Faced With Claims the Government Could Block Out the Sun?

 According to the Telegraph, the Government is now taking seriously the possibility that Britain’s ever-growing list of mortal enemies might be considering denying our island the sunlight given to us by God himself. “Third-party actors could include countries taking drastic action to lower their carbon emissions,” explains the newspaper. 

Or worse, experts warn that latter-day Bond villains and “hostile nations such as Russia” might be planning to use “solar geoengineering to orchestrate an environmental disaster against their enemies”. Climate change mitigation, then, could be a pretext for interventions that destroy our food and plunge us into a cold and dark future.

Physics debunks climate alarmism: CO2 cannot overheat the planet – IT FEEDS THE WORLD

For decades, fearmongering politicians, corporate elites, and captured media have weaponized climate science to justify draconian regulations, wealth redistribution, and the destruction of modern energy systems.

Yet two of the world’s leading physicists — MIT’s Richard Lindzen and Princeton’s William Happer — have dismantled the so-called "climate crisis" with irrefutable physics. Their groundbreaking research proves that rising CO? levels cannot cause dangerous warming or extreme weather — but they do dramatically increase global food production, greening the planet and fighting starvation.

Key points:

CO? is not a "pollutant": At today’s atmospheric concentration (~420 parts per million), CO?’s greenhouse effect is saturated, meaning additional emissions have negligible impact on temperature.

Historical data contradicts alarmism: Over 600 million years, CO? levels were often 10x higher than today — with no runaway warming. Ice ages and warming cycles predate industrialization.

More CO? = more food: Doubling CO? to 840 ppm could boost crop yields by 40%, reversing famine threats. Plants thrive on this "miracle molecule."

Climate models fail: Government-pushed computer simulations overheat by 200–300% compared to real-world data. The IPCC’s "97% consensus" is a rigged political tool.

Net Zero = economic suicide: Eliminating fossil fuels would cripple agriculture (via nitrogen fertilizer loss), spike energy poverty, and cost $275 trillion by 2050 — with no climate benefit....<<<Read More>>>....

Electric vehicles collect huge amounts of data including psychological, genetic and health information

 A recent investigative report on Channel 5 explored the data security and privacy risks of electric cars.

According to a cybersecurity campaigner, electric vehicles capture and store a huge amount of data, including location details, facial expressions, and genetic and health information, which are shared with various organisations, including data brokers.

A computer engineer highlighted cybersecurity failures in EV chargers. Using the example of one brand of charger, he explained how hackers are able to easily steal the EV owner’s wi-fi password.

On 6 June, Channel 5 aired an investigative report titled ‘Electric Cars: Are They Really Worth It?’. The programme explored the viability of purchasing an electric vehicle, examining factors such as cost, range realities and charging truths. It featured comparisons between electric and traditional petrol cars, including discussions on maintenance costs and environmental impact.

Channel 5 is a British free-to-air public broadcast television channel and streaming service that can only be viewed if you are in the UK. If you are in the UK, you can create an account on Channel 5’s website and watch their investigation into electric vehicles (“EV”) for free HERE.

If you are outside the UK, you can watch it for free on the Documentary Area website HERE. The only problem is that you have to put up with an annoying watermark which has been placed across the middle of the screen for the entire documentary.

The section we want to draw our readers’ attention to is the final 9 minutes or so about data security and privacy risks. This segment begins at timestamp 35:12.

“Most people today just simply won’t be aware of the data that is actually being captured by a vehicle,” cybersecurity campaigner Martin said. “They certainly won’t be aware of how it’s being used or how it’s being shared.”

EVs are heavily reliant on computer software to manage the vehicle as a whole and interact with their external environment, for example, the car’s keys. “[With the keys on your person, the car] is generating and storing a huge amount of data as soon as you get near the car,” Martin said...<<<Read More>>>....

What If You’re Already Awake? Timeless Teachings in Dialogue

 These dialogues echo the questions of countless seeking souls—each beginning their journey from different situations, stages of life, and inner states, yet walking the same unknown path: the path toward themselves.

The Seeker who asks the questions is sometimes a young person, just waking up to the sense that something is not right in the world—or perhaps within themselves. Other times, the Seeker is older, someone who has seen much, experienced much, and yet feels empty in what they have attained.

There are moments when the Seeker speaks with trust and enthusiasm, and others when they are desperate, weary, and hopeless. Sometimes their vision is clear, other times it is clouded by pain or longing.

But one thing is always the same: something deep inside them—nameless yet urgently real—has stirred into motion. Something that refuses to let them rest. Something that cannot be satisfied by the mind’s answers, by the world’s promises, or by society’s roles. It is this inner urgency that makes one a Seeker. It is what opens the eyes to the possibility that perhaps our entire life—as we’ve known it—has only been a dream. And if that’s true… then who is the one dreaming?

The other voice in the dialogues is the Master. But do not imagine him as an old, wise man handing out truths from a mountaintop. The Master is nothing other than the light of Consciousness awakened to itself. The voice of Silence. That pure presence which lives in every human heart—only hidden until now by the noise of thoughts, the tide of fears and desires.

The Master teaches no techniques. Offers no methods or goals. Does not promise that you will reach anywhere—because you already are where you seek to go. The Master doesn’t try to convince you of anything—rather, he dismantles everything you’ve identified with....<<<Read More>>>...

Why is the Civil Service Muslim Network Allowed to Shape Government Policy?

 To live in England in 2025 is to live in a strange land, where the headlines read like the most lurid, unbelievable, low-status conspiracy theories of a decade ago. The largest and most regime-threatening example of this is, of course, the scandal of the Pakistani rape gangs and the decades-long complicity of the British regime in their horrific crimes. But every day it seems as though there’s a new story which reveals that the country is even more rotten than we feared.

This is how I read the Times’s story last week about the “Civil Service Muslim Network“. In Zoom meetings attended by hundreds of (seemingly primarily Muslim) civil servants, the group’s leader, a Department for Environment Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) employee named Sami Rahman, made many remarks which seem obviously antisemitic, such as describing Israel as Shaitan (Arabic for ‘the Devil’). He also openly encouraged Muslim Network members to influence and even oppose government policy, saying: “Whether it’s Islamophobia or anti-Muslim hatred, whether it’s Palestine, or OPT [occupied Palestinian territories], whether it’s any other thing… it’s a time for both setting agendas, but resisting them as well.” He added that “working in central government, we do have responsibility to be that voice and to have conviction”....<<<Read More>>>....

The UK does not have the money or resources to achieve “Net Zero”; it risks a financial crash by decade’s end

 Michael Kelly was a UK government scientist when the Climate Change Act was launched in 2008, and has been researching the reduction of carbon in Britain since then.

He wrote to Energy and Climate Change Secretary Ed Miliband to say that the Net Zero targets are an engineering fantasy because the costs are enormously prohibitive and the workforce needed is not available. He is calling for open debate on these issues and says engineering’s professional bodies are not acting responsibly in their silence.

In February, he joined NTD’s Lee Hall to discuss the UK government’s Net Zero fantasy.

To achieve Net Zero, the UK would need to spend around £1.4 trillion, have 40,000 civil and electrical engineers working full-time for 30 years, and three times as many skilled tradespeople, as well as a vastly increased amount of materials, he explained.

The scale of the project to expand the grid and rewire houses would be equivalent to one HS2 programme each and every year between now and 2050, requiring a significant workforce and materials that are not currently available.

“Everybody assumes it’s possible and they go along with the fiction, even people I know who know it’s not possible, they say ‘we’re going along for the ride’,” he said.  “I regard that as unethical, and certainly unprofessional on the part of engineers.”

The current electrical grid is not sufficient to support the transition to net zero, with the need for additional energy to power heating and electric vehicles, requiring a potential increase in grid size of 2.7 times, nearly triple the size of the current grid.

Upgrading the grid and retrofitting homes to support net zero would be extremely costly, with estimates suggesting a cost of around £1.4 trillion for the grid and potentially £2 trillion for retrofitting all 26 million houses in the UK....<<<Read More>>>...

A journey beyond the pain: Robert Milne unravels the mystery of headaches

 In a world where millions grapple with the relentless grip of headaches, understanding the root causes and exploring effective treatments is more crucial than ever. Robert Milne's book, "Alternative Medicine Definitive Guide to Headaches," offers a fresh perspective on these debilitating conditions that have plagued humanity for centuries.

Headaches are not a modern affliction. They have a storied history that includes some of history's most notable figures such as William Shakespeare, Virginia Woolf and Karl Marx. One can only speculate on the masterpieces that might have been created if these luminaries had access to today's wealth of knowledge on headache management.

At the heart of Milne's exploration is the concept of pain itself. Pain, often seen as an adversary, is in fact an essential ally. It serves as a vital signal from the body, indicating that something is amiss.

When an individual experiences pain, the nervous system reacts to tissue irritation or damage, sending signals to the brain, which then commands the body to protect itself. This mechanism is evident when people instinctively pull their hand away from a hot stove.

However, the book highlights a critical shortcoming in many headache treatments. They often focus solely on alleviating pain rather than addressing the underlying cause. This symptom-driven approach provides temporary relief but fails to resolve the issue.

Pain is the body's way of signaling distress and understanding this can be the first step toward effective treatment. Milne categorizes headaches based on their characteristics, offering a nuanced understanding of the different types of head pain....<<<Read More>>>...

UK Govt Spends £30 Million on Woke Research Including Gay Porn After Second World War and Syrian Harvesting Songs

 Nearly £30 million of UK taxpayer cash has been blown on bizarre, woke academic projects. The Mail has more.

UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) has been given the staggering amount of funding for a number of overseas projects, which appear to have no clear benefit to British taxpayers.

The funding includes £850,000 for Birmingham City University to delve into the circulation of gay male porn and porn magazines at the end of the Second World War, a Telegraph investigation revealed.

The University of Oxford received more than £350,000 in a bid to preserve the threatened language of Enggano, spoken by just 1,500 people on Enggano Island, in Sumatra, Indonesia.

Meanwhile, £784,000 was given to the University of Exeter to build a historical account of the development of child soldiering in Africa.

It also received £307,000 of funding to revive ancestral territories, including the language and cultures of the K’omox, Pentlatch, and E’iksan in Vancouver Island, Canada, and the Maori of New Zealand.

Edinburgh University were given £123,000 to record “harvesting songs of displaced Syrian refugees living in Middle Eastern countries”, while the University of Warwick received almost £800,000 to study “invisible women in Italian cinema”. …<<<Read More>>>...

You Are Beautiful

 Many of us do not take the time to notice and acknowledge how beautiful we are as humans. We may be great lovers of beauty, seeing it in the people, places, and things around us, while completely missing it in ourselves. Some of us feel that it is vain to consider our appearance too much, or we may find that when we look at ourselves — all we see are imperfections. Often we come to the mirror with expectations and preconceived notions about beauty that blind us from seeing ourselves clearly. 

As a result, we miss the beauty that is closest to us — the beauty we are. Sometimes we see our beauty in a shallow way, noticing how well we are conforming to social norms, but we fail to see the deeper beauty that shines out from within and that will continue to shine regardless of how we measure up to society’s ideal.

If we can cut through all these obstacles and simply appreciate how beautiful we are, we free up so much energy. We also become less dependent upon the opinions and feedback of others since we become our own greatest admirers. Many of us know that after a great yoga practice or a long, deep meditation, we are more able to see how beautiful we are. This is because we have released some of our baggage, thus unburdening ourselves and summoning forth the spirit that dwells within us. It is the heady combination of the divine spirit and the human body that conveys beauty more accurately than anything else.

To keep ourselves in touch with our own beauty, we can surround ourselves with images that reflect our beauty back to us — photos of a relative or child who has our eyes, images of teachers who embody spirit, or self-portraits that capture our essence in a way that allows us to see ourselves anew. The best way to keep ourselves in touch with our own beauty is to keep looking deeply into our own souls and opening our eyes to the human being we see in the mirror every day. (Daily OM)

Strange Radio Signals from Antarctic Ice Leave Scientists Baffled

Scientists have detected mysterious radio signals coming from deep within the Antarctic ice, and they don’t know what’s causing them. Researchers at Penn State used a special cosmic particle detector—a device that picks up tiny particles from space—to find these unusual signals.

According to a press release, these signals “defy the current understanding of particle physics,” meaning they don’t match what scientists currently know about how particles behave.

The detector, which is part of a project called the Antarctic Impulsive Transient Antenna (ANITA), is an unusual setup—it’s actually hanging from a cluster of high-altitude balloons.

Normally, ANITA detects particles that come from space and bounce off the Earth’s surface. But this time, the signals seemed to be coming from below the ice, which was unexpected and confusing....<<<Read More>>>...

Establishment in Denial Over Ethnicity of Grooming Gangs, Report Finds

 The Establishment has been in “denial” over the ethnicity of grooming gangs and repeatedly relied on flawed data to dismiss claims about Asian grooming gangs as “sensationalised, biased or untrue”, a report has found. The Telegraph has more.

Baroness Casey of Blackstock found that flawed data were used by public bodies to dismiss claims about Asian grooming gangs as “sensationalised, biased or untrue”.

She also found that in too many cases, police forces and other organisations avoided pursuing perpetrators for fear of being viewed as racist.

Yvette Cooper, the Home Secretary, told MPs that the Government would accept all the recommendations, including setting up a national inquiry into grooming gangs.

She said that rape laws should be tightened up and many girls convicted of child prostitution would be cleared.

Ms Cooper added: “This will mark the biggest programme of work ever pursued to root out the grooming gangs.

“Those vile perpetrators who have grown used to the authorities looking the other way must have no place to hide.”

She said 800 cold cases would be looked into and could rise to 1,000 cases, adding: “Perpetrators of these vile crimes should be behind bars and paying the price of what they have done.”

The Home Secretary said the report found a “deep-rooted failure to treat children as children”, adding: “A continued failure to protect teenage girls from rape, from exploitation and serious violence, and from the scars that last a lifetime.

“[Lady Casey] finds… too much reliance on flawed data, too much denial, too little justice, too many criminals getting off, too many victims being let down.”

Ms Cooper said the report found that children as young as 10 were singled out for grooming.

“Perpetrators [were] walking free because no one joined up the dots or because the law protected them instead of the victims that they had exploited,” she added.

“Blindness, ignorance, prejudice, defensiveness and even good but misdirected intentions all played a part in this collective failure.”

How chlorine dioxide brought a “dead” woman back to life

 In Episode 8 of "Healing Revolution," aired June 14, investigative journalist Jonathan Otto tackled chlorine dioxide and how it brought a 'dead' woman back to life. When Jenny Patricia, a Colombian FDA employee, was declared dead after battling bone cancer, lung cancer and a high-risk pregnancy, doctors had given up all hope. Yet, against all odds, chlorine dioxide solution (CDS) not only revived her but restored her health so completely that she had to legally reverse her death certificate. Her story is just one of many fueling a global debate: Could this inexpensive, oxygenating molecule be the answer to diseases modern medicine deems untreatable?

Patricia's case, detailed by researcher Dr. Andreas Kalcker, reads like a medical miracle. After losing a leg to bone cancer and developing lung cancer while pregnant, she refused to abort her child despite doctors' warnings. "Nobody could believe she recovered," Kalcker recounted. "She was declared dead because her survival seemed impossible." Yet, after using chlorine dioxide, Patricia not only survived but thrived—raising her healthy child and even becoming a village therapist.

Her recovery isn't an isolated incident. Kalcker shares other jaw-dropping cases, including Guillain-Barré patients who could only blink before CDS restored their mobility and blind individuals regaining sight after injections near the optic nerve. "Time will tell how big this is," he said.

Chlorine dioxide (ClO?), often mislabeled as "industrial bleach," is a selective oxidizer that releases oxygen at the cellular level. Kalcker explained its mechanism: "It delivers over 10 million oxygen molecules per red blood cell." This oxygenation may explain its reported successes against pathogens, heavy metals and even cancer...<<<Read More>>>...

X-Files Creator Reveals Why He Doesn’t Trust U.S. Government Report on UFO

 The report on UFOs discovered by American pilots not only did not clarify anything for the public, but is also likely to result in the emergence of new conspiracy theories, since some of its parts turned out to be classified, Chris Carter, creator of the popular X-Files series, writes in his article for the www.nytimes.com.

“When we were working on The X-Files, preparing the first scenery for Agent Mulder’s office, I came up with a poster with a picture of a UFO and the inscription I want to believe.

What if we weren't the first advanced civilization on Earth?

The Silurian Hypothesis asks whether signs of truly ancient past civilizations would even be recognisable today.

In the grand sweep of Earth's four-billion-year history, 300 years is barely a blink. And yet, that blink — our industrial era — has already reshaped the atmosphere, oceans, and sediments. If civilization collapsed tomorrow, would anything of us remain 100 million years from now? Could some alien beings visiting Earth in the future ever tell that this planet was inhabited by an advanced civilization? More startling still: if another civilization once existed on Earth long before us, could we even tell?

This question lies at the heart of the Silurian Hypothesis — a playful yet serious scientific proposition by NASA climate scientist Gavin Schmidt and astrophysicist Adam Frank, detailed in a 2018 paper in the International Journal of Astrobiology. The name nods to the Silurians, a fictional species of ancient intelligent reptiles from Doctor Who, but the premise is grounded in geology, astrobiology, and climate science.

"We are not however suggesting that intelligent reptiles actually existed in the Silurian age," the authors clarify in their paper, just to be sure no one misreads them. "Nor that experimental nuclear physics is liable to wake them from hibernation." ...<<<Read More>>>...

Landlords Face Higher Bills As New Net Zero Rules Kick in

Landlords are bracing for pricier energy performance certificate (EPC) checks and stricter rules under Ed Miliband’s Net Zero drive, with fears that tougher standards could make thousands of homes impossible to rent. The Telegraph has the details:

Under reforms, energy assessors will be expected to use a new data collection system, raising the price of certificates to up to £250 each.

The more stringent criteria could also mean that properties could drop an EPC band, experts said, making them impossible to let under rules set out by Ed Miliband, the Energy Secretary.

Under the new methodology, assessors will be required to inspect the size, frame type and glazing of every window in the house more thoroughly, as well as recording any extractor fans and blocked chimneys.

Chris Norris, of the National Residential Landlords Association (NRLA) property body, warned that the price of an EPC certificate, which typically costs between £50 and £120, could rise by £20 this summer as a result of the changes. …

However, Sean Horton, of mortgage adviser Respect Mortgages, said the more intensive assessments could increase the price of certificates “to £150-£250 easily”.

He added: “The window measurements alone are crackers. Instead of just noting ‘typical double glazing’, assessors now need to measure each window individually, record orientations, frame types, glazing gaps, ages, draught proofing – the lot.

“That’s going to make each assessment much longer, with the cost passed on to the landlord.”

From 2030, all rental homes must have an EPC score of at least C, while landlords accepting new tenants will be expected to achieve the required standard by 2028. …

Labour is due to replace the beleaguered EPC system entirely with the much-anticipated Home Energy Model, following years of consultation.

Among other changes, the reforms are expected to favour homes with the “capacity to integrate with smart technology”, which some fear will penalise homeowners who refuse a smart meter. …

Kundan Bhaduri, of the Kushman Group real estate firm, said: “For portfolio landlords, this is death by a thousand clipboard checks.

“Costs will rise sharply, and worse still, homes that previously scraped a C rating could now drop to a D, dragging us into yet another regulatory penalty zone. And this is just the warm-up act before the even more chaotic Home Energy Model arrives.” ...<<<Read More>>>...

The silent epidemic: How VITAMIN B12 deficiency is often misdiagnosed

 Millions of people worldwide suffer from chronic fatigue, depression and even dementia. Yet the root cause may be shockingly simple: A vitamin deficiency routinely ignored by the medical establishment.

Vitamin B12 deficiency affects an estimated three to five percent of the general population, with some experts suggesting the real number could be as high as 10 percent. Among the elderly, at least 20 percent are believed to have dangerously low levels.

Worse still, many of these cases are misdiagnosed as Alzheimer's, multiple sclerosis or mental illness. These misdiagnoses lead to unnecessary suffering and costly, ineffective treatments.

The truth is, vitamin B12 is essential for brain function, nerve health and red blood cell production. Yet doctors frequently fail to test for it. Meanwhile, the rise of veganism, flawed lab standards and pharmaceutical industry influence have turned this easily treatable condition into a public health crisis.

Vitamin B12 deficiency doesn't announce itself with dramatic flair. Instead, it creeps in with fatigue, brain fog and mood swings – symptoms easily dismissed as stress or aging. But left untreated, it can lead to irreversible nerve damage, psychosis and dementia.

Studies show that patients with B12 deficiency often exhibit symptoms identical to Alzheimer's – including memory loss, confusion and personality changes. Shockingly, some experts estimate that half a million people in the United Kingdom alone diagnosed with dementia may actually just need B12 injections.

Yet instead of simple, inexpensive treatment, these patients are funneled into a system that profits from their misdiagnosis. They are prescribed expensive psychiatric drugs or institutionalized in care homes, when a $10 vitamin shot could restore their health...<<<Read More>>>...

Vitamin D may slow biological aging and help you live longer

A new study reports that vitamin D supplementation may help slow some of the mechanisms of biological aging.

The research, published in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, suggests that vitamin D may help maintain the stability of telomeres, the protective caps at the end of chromosomes that tend to shorten as people get older.

That shortening is a natural part of aging, but it has been linked to certain age-related diseases. Among those diseases are cancer of the bladder, lungs, kidneys, and gastrointestinal systems.

"Our findings suggest that targeted vitamin D supplementation may be a promising strategy to counter a biological aging process, although further research is warranted," said Haidong Zhu, MD, PhD, the first author of the study and a molecular geneticist at the Medical College of Georgia, Augusta University, in a statement.

Experts agree the new research is interesting, but they note it has its limits.

"Telomere length was protected with vitamin D supplementation, but it's not clear how that translates to real life biological aging," Marilyn Tan, MD, a clinical associate professor of medicine at Stanford University in California, told Healthline. Tan wasn't involved in the study.

"The present study involved only a relatively small number of people, looked only at telomeres in white blood cells, and did not look extensively at the health impact of these telomere changes," added David Cutler, MD, a family medicine physician at Providence Saint John's Health Center in Santa Monica, California. "So, the clinical implications one can derive from this study are quite limited." Cutler was likewise not involved in the study....<<<Read More>>>...

Another Buga Sphere? Colombian Farmer Films ‘Perfect Sphere’ UAP

 A metallic, perfectly spherical Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon (UAP) was filmed over a rural area near Yumbo, Colombia, on June 10th, 2025, at approximately 3:15 PM local time.

The three-minute sighting, captured in a non-watermarked, high-resolution video, has drawn immediate comparisons to the “Buga sphere” and adds to a growing number of similar global observations.

The UAP was witnessed by a local farmer under clear skies, light wispy clouds, minimal wind, and a temperature of about 25°C.

The object was completely silent and observed flying around corn fields before disappearing. It was described as metallic, highly reflective, and featuring a distinct band around its circumference—a characteristic noted in previous sightings.

Is Xi Jinping About to Be Pushed Out?

 Is Chinese President Xi Jinping – the great architect of the Covid lockdowns – about to be defenestrated? Those are the rumours coming out of China – and the fallout from the crippling lockdowns is part of the reason. Francis Pike in the Spectator has more.

Is it a coincidence that the expunging of Xi Zhongxun [Xi Jinping’s father] has come to light while Xi himself seemingly disappeared from public view in the last two weeks of May? Chinese institutions are always alert to changes in the political wind – no more so than the state media. Recently China-watchers have detected subtle changes. Xi, usually on every front page of the People’s Liberation Army Daily, has been much less prominent. Shen Ming-Shih, a Director of the Institute for National Defence and Security Research in Taiwan, has observed “a noticeable decline in the official references to Xi”.

In the past, Xi has been described as the “eternal core of the party”. As recently as December, the People’s Liberation Army Daily wrote that decisions should “rely on a single voice of authority”. Now it praises the virtues of “collective leadership”. In addition, Shen has pointed out that academics at Peking University and South China University of Technology have not been punished for writing essays critical of Xi’s policies.

Remarkably, Hu Jintao, Xi’s predecessor and faction opponent, who, in front of the world’s press, was humiliatingly manhandled out of the CCP’s 20th National Congress in October 2022 by Xi’s bodyguards, seems to be making a comeback.

Recent studies, including one published in the journal Nutrition, Metabolism and Cardiovascular Diseases, found that beetroot juice can lower systolic blood pressure in people with hypertension, with a significant effect up to 90 days of intervention.

With mounting evidence also linking beet consumption to improved brain function, cardiovascular health and even cancer prevention, nutritionists and athletes alike are embracing this vibrant root vegetable as a powerhouse of wellness.

Beets have been used medicinally since ancient times. For instance, the ancient Romans valued beets for its ability to relieve fevers, while the the ancient Chinese used it for blood purification. Today, modern science validates many of beets' traditional uses, positioning beet juice as a natural, accessible alternative to pharmaceuticals and commercial products (e.g., sports drinks)....<<<Read More>>>...

Aliens: Extra-Terrestrial or Trans-Dimensional?

 Are aliens extra-terrestrial? Ufologists, contactees and abductees presume that they are. This presumption is based on the theory that alien-astronauts visited the Earth in ancient times to establish off-world colonies and engineer the process of human evolution. Since the aliens supposedly come from worlds other than our own, or so the theory goes, it follows they must be extra-terrestrial. 

However, there is little evidence for believing this. To date, not a single ufologist, contactee or abductee can present credible evidence to support the view that aliens are extra-terrestrial. Evidence of a kind, however, does exist for an alternate theory about the ontological nature of alien entities. This is the view that aliens are trans-dimensional entities inhabiting the myriad layers of alternate dimensions that interpenetrate the Multiverse, ‘in’ the world as we know it and yet not really ‘of’ the world. ...<<<Read More>>>...

No Going Back

 There are times when we feel that we are spinning our wheels in the mud in terms of our spiritual progress. This can be especially true following a period of major growth in which we feel as if we’ve gained a lot of ground. In fact, this is the way growth goes -- periods of intense forward movement give way to periods of what seems like stagnation. In those moments when we feel discouraged, it’s helpful to remember that we don’t ever really go backward. It may be that we are at a standstill because there is a new obstacle in our paths, or a new layer to get through, but the hard work we have done cannot be undone.

Every step on the path is meaningful, and even one that seems to take us backward is a forward step in the sense that it is what we must do to move to the next level. In addition, an intense growth spurt requires that we rest for a time in order to fully integrate the new energies that have been liberated by our hard work. When we feel we are not making progress, we can encourage ourselves to take a moment to rest. We can meditate more, feed ourselves well, and get extra sleep. Before we know it, we will be spurred on to work toward the next level of our development, and this rest will make sense then as something we needed in order to continue.

Once the sun rises, it doesn’t go backward but instead follows its path in one direction. It may appear to stand still for a moment in time, or to move more slowly at some point or another, but really it is steadily moving forward on its path. We are the same way, and once we have moved through something we can never really go back. We may be resting or revisiting issues that seem old, and it’s natural to feel stuck, but in truth we are always taking the next important step forward on our path. (Daily OM)

Money and Spirituality – Are They Compatible?

 Through the years, I’ve heard a lot of passionate – and frankly dogmatic – opinions regarding spirituality and money.

These opinions range from extreme views such as money always taints and corrupts spirituality and spiritual services should never have a price tag, all the way to polar views that we should invest as much money as we have in spiritual practice.

Let me be clear: I’m not a person of extremes. I seek and respect balance, so my perspective falls somewhere in the middle.

I don’t believe charging for spiritual services is wrong nor do I believe that you should invest all the money you have in spiritual materials, courses, and teachers. I’ll explain why below.

But before we proceed I want to be clear: money and spirituality can be a heated topic. I respect everyone’s right to have different opinions so long as they don’t shove them into the faces of others.

Ironically so much unkindness and “unspiritual” behavior can occur when discussing money and spirituality. Let’s keep the comment area civil and mature....<<<Read More>>>...

UK Housing Grab: Government and immigrants are forcibly taking homes

Norfolk residents are being forced to sell their homes to make way for a solar farm. In another instance of a housing grab, immigrants have forcibly taken an elderly woman’s home from her; the police say they cannot intervene, leaving her to pursue legal action against the immigrants in an effort to reclaim her property.

Residents in three “Domesday villages” fear their homes will be the first in Britain to be compulsorily purchased to make way for the country’s biggest-ever solar farm.

Dozens of villagers living in Hempnall, Saxlingham and Tasburgh in Norfolk have received letters from a developer saying their homes “may be required” to create space for the East Pye Solar Project.

The development will cover a massive 2,500 acres – the equivalent of 1,762 football pitches or the size of Chichester in West Sussex – and is 10 times bigger than the UK’s current largest in Flintshire, Wales....<<<Read More>>>...

“Lukewarming” challenges the climate change narrative: A new perspective on global warming

 The authors, both seasoned climate scientists, argue that the climate is indeed changing, but not in the dramatic, catastrophic manner often depicted in media headlines and policy discussions. Michaels and Knappenberger introduce the concept of "lukewarming," a term that encapsulates their belief in a more gradual and less alarming warming trend. They contend that the evidence points to a milder increase in global temperatures than what is commonly projected by climate models.

The book opens with an intriguing examination of the incentive structures within the scientific community. Michaels and Knappenberger suggest that there is a bias toward alarmism, driven by the need to attract funding and attention. They point to the U.S. National Climate Assessments as examples, claiming that these reports often exaggerate the impacts of climate change to support specific policy agendas. As Michaels states, "The incentive to be alarming is strong, as it garners more funding and media coverage."

One of the most compelling aspects of "Lukewarming" is its exploration of the historical context of climate science. The authors highlight that the concept of lukewarming is not new, with contributions from scientists like Judith Curry and Will Happer over the years. They emphasize the importance of skepticism and critical thinking, arguing that the current climate change narrative often lacks these essential elements.

Michaels and Knappenberger also delve into the role of sulfate aerosols in climate models. They argue that these aerosols have been used as a "Band-Aid" to help models simulate past climate conditions more accurately. However, they question the validity of this approach, suggesting that it allows modelers to hold onto their paradigms longer than they should. "The use of sulfate aerosols in models is a double-edged sword," Michaels explains. "While it helps reconcile models with past data, it also masks the uncertainties inherent in our understanding of the climate system."...<<<Read More>>>....

If you thought quantum mechanics was weird, then check out entangled time

 Adding a new layer to the already complex world of metaphysics.

In the summer of 1935, the physicists Albert Einstein and Erwin Schrödinger engaged in a rich, multifaceted and sometimes fretful correspondence about the implications of the new theory of quantum mechanics. 

The focus of their worry was what Schrödinger later dubbed entanglement: the inability to describe two quantum systems or particles independently, after they have interacted.

Until his death, Einstein remained convinced that entanglement showed how quantum mechanics was incomplete. Schrödinger thought that entanglement was the defining feature of the new physics, but this didn't mean that he accepted it lightly. 'I know of course how the hocus pocus works mathematically,' he wrote to Einstein on 13 July 1935. 'But I do not like such a theory.' Schrödinger's famous cat, suspended between life and death, first appeared in these letters, a byproduct of the struggle to articulate what bothered the pair.

The problem is that entanglement violates how the world ought to work. Information can't travel faster than the speed of light, for one. But in a 1935 paper, Einstein and his co-authors showed how entanglement leads to what's now called quantum nonlocality, the eerie link that appears to exist between entangled particles. If two quantum systems meet and then separate, even across a distance of thousands of lightyears, it becomes impossible to measure the features of one system (such as its position, momentum and polarity) without instantly steering the other into a corresponding state.

Up to today, most experiments have tested entanglement over spatial gaps. The assumption is that the 'nonlocal' part of quantum nonlocality refers to the entanglement of properties across space. But what if entanglement also occurs across time? Is there such a thing as temporal nonlocality?...<<<Read More>>>....

Escaping the Illusion: Who Are We Really and Why Don’t We Remember?

 To awaken we must build a bridge from our current understanding of who we are to an understanding that allows us to remember and review all previous stages of our existence. 

The problem is that such a feat leads us to an impasse, to a chasm. There is a chasm between what we as humanity seem to ‘know’ about our origins and the modalities of the universe we exist in, and what is the true, first-hand knowledge and memory of where we were before showing up in this current lifetime....<<<Read More>>>...

Archaeologists Discover a Buried ‘Second City’ Beneath Giza’s Pyramids

 Scientists have announced a new discovery of an underground city beneath the Egyptian pyramids. The announcement comes just months after the first reports of an underground city beneath Khafre’s pyramid, reports Metro

The latest finds, said to be located beneath the Pyramid of Menkaure, suggest the existence of a large underground complex that may connect all three pyramids at Giza.

A team of researchers led by Italian scientist Filippo Biondi previously announced the discovery of columnar structures beneath the Pyramid of Khafre. According to Biondi, tomographic scans now reveal a similar structure beneath the Pyramid of Menkaure....<<<Read More>>>...

How parasites are secretly destroying your health

Imagine feeling exhausted, plagued by brain fog and suffering from mysterious digestive pain, only for doctors to dismiss your symptoms as "stress" or "normal aging." For Karen McNeal, this was her reality, until an integrative practitioner uncovered the shocking truth: Parasites had been silently thriving inside her body, fueling chronic illness.

"I had stomach issues, brain fog and was just concerned that I wasn't going to thrive if I didn't get some help," McNeal recalled. "We immediately did some testing for parasites. That was very helpful and I did have that. He had the solution. Within a year, they were all cleared up."

McNeal's story is far from unique. According to a PubMed study, nearly 60 percent of the global population harbors parasitic infections, yet mainstream medicine rarely tests for or treats them. These hidden invaders don't just reside in the gut; they infiltrate muscles, organs and even the brain, contributing to chronic fatigue, autoimmune disorders and even cancer.

Dr. Diana Wright, a naturopathic expert, revealed that parasites are one of four major vectors of cancer, alongside bacteria, viruses and fungi. "Sixty percent of people with cancer have a parasite," she stated. "Yet nobody thinks it's a virus because viruses are basically dead — they think this is going to be a living thing that causes cancer."

Despite their prevalence, conventional doctors rarely consider parasites as a root cause. Instead, patients are misdiagnosed, prescribed antidepressants or told their symptoms are "all in their head."

"Chronic parasitic infections can devastate your immune system, bringing diseases that modern doctors have no idea how to diagnose or treat," Otto explained. "They'll just diagnose it as some other disease and never even consider a parasitic infection."...<<<Read More>>>...
