Severe Strains of Clostrium Difficile

SCOTLAND must brace itself for an increase in new and severe strains of the Clostridium difficile superbug – and the infection could also become more resistant to the drugs used to treat it, experts have told The Scotsman. Fears were also raised that C difficile could become less sensitive to the antibiotics currently used to treat it. Scotsman.com

Fortunately, I am not a doctor - nor am I a scientist. I am a person who understands that we are an undivided part of NATURE, and this means that the laws of nature apply to everything that we do.

To understand what I am about to say next, you have to understand what antibiotics are, and you have to understand why bacteria in the colon (intestine) would benefit from the root antibiotic elements scientists play around with, as they create drugs to combat infections.

Antibiotics - In modern usage, an antibiotic is a chemotherapeutic agent with activity against microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi or protozoa. Modern science claim that anti-biotics kill bacteria... and Natural Health studies warn that anti-biotics kill the beneficial friendly colon bacteria essential to the proper functioning of the digestive system and the immune system.

On the sub-atomic levels the antibiotic and fungi organisms are related to one another. This means that on the sub-atomic level fungi and bacteria are inter-relate in form and function. The bacteria are not becoming resistant to antibiotic medications, they are one and the same. Their root functions are one and the same. Fungi and bacteria are closely related, and their basic functions are closely related. This means that on a sub-atomic level we humans are adding deadly forms of fungi and bacteria into an inner climate of ill health, forming a cocktail of substances we barely understand.

Bacteria and fungi are not at war, they have an intimate relationship that modern humans have not even begun to understand. The symptoms are not the result of resistance, but are the result of co-operation. The beneficial human colon bacteria are being devastated by antibiotic drugs, creating the internal ground upon which the process of decay leads to extreme physical illness or physical death. This is what fungi and bacteria do - they break down physical matter and reprocess it into its sub-atomic parts. As does radiation... and what life forms benefit from radioactive contamination? Fungi, yeast and mould!!

Fungi thrive on dangerous radiation
"Our findings suggest that [the fungi] can capture the energy from radiation and transform it into other forms of energy that can be used for growth," said microbiologist Arturo Casadevall from the Albert Einstein College of Medicine at Yeshiva University in New York, USA. Silent Spring

These elements we call fungi, yeast and mould carry the keys that unlock the energetic cohesion of physical matter. This means that when a plant, tree, animal or human radiates signs of energetic decay (or depletion) the basic elements of fungi, yeast and mold begin to unlock the physical cohesion of the cells.

Market Commentary From Monty Guild

THE UNVARNISHED FACTS AS WE SEE THEM
Monty Guild and Tony Danaher
- jsmineset.com

World confidence in the financial markets has been badly shaken. There have been bank runs in Russia, U.K., U.S., and now Hong Kong (although Hong Kong is not really too much involved in mortgage backed securities and the heavy leverage insanity like in Europe and on Wall Street). Europe, Japan and the Anglo-Saxon world are in deep trouble and we should admit it to ourselves and take immediate action.

Rumor has it that when the Titanic first hit the iceberg, some passengers engaged in a snowball fight on the deck...clearly missing the message. Today is not so dissimilar. Many authorities, particularly politicians, seem to be blind to the simple reality. The reality is that the financial system is in grave danger. Instead of trying to cover up the problems and allowing their banking institutions to lie about their big problems, the authorities of every major country must act to recapitalize the banks of the world in order to keep the world economic system running.

Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke, whether you like him or not, is one of the world's experts on the Great Depression of the 1930's, and he understands the problem all too well. He called Treasury Secretary Paulson (who was afraid that a bailout plan would not be easy to get by Congress) and said we have to do it now before it is too late. Chairman Bernanke is correct.

The blame belongs to all politicians and the system of government that exists in the U.S. and Europe which allows powerful interests on the political right and on the political left to manipulate politics, and allow wrong behaviors to continue (sometimes for many years) when the miscreants happen to be big donors...and Fannie Mae, Freddy Mac, AIG, and Wall Street firms were big donors to both major political parties in the U.S.

In Europe, major financial institutions have used their political influence to avoid admitting the depth of their bad debt exposures. Two very large banks in Europe have leverage of about 50 to 1 or more. The debt they carry on their balance sheets is close to the sum of the GDP of their home countries.

In Japan, their banks have continued to be mismanaged...for nearly two decades. Only in emerging Asia, because of their focus on lending to foster their own growth, has the problem been less pronounced.

That being said, we are a global economy where investments and risks spread globally, so collapses in the U.S., Europe, and Japan will hurt Asia. Asia did not make as many bad loans but they bought the problem bonds in Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and other western financial institutions.

Some time we will have a meeting and invite those who want to hear our views on how this developed. It will take a couple of hours to give a history of the federal government's intervention in the housing market, the well-meaning housing for the poor legislation, the desire to make the world safe from terrorism, other well-meaning ideas, and how we arrived so close to an economic depression in the U.S. and Europe.

The Psychology of Change

Economics and all economic activity are the result [the symptom] of the psychology of human interactions. There is no economy without human interaction, and the psychology behind these interactions creates the standard for markets and exchange.

Very simply, if you and I are exchanging goods and one of us finds it acceptable to cheat or lie to the other - this deception effects the outcome of the trade between us. When trader A sells 100 tons of fake gold to buyer B, and buyer B innocently sends the fake gold into the markets - the psychology of the transaction leads back to the complete lack of integrity of trader A.

Markets and market behaviour will not change until there is a basic human value of honesty and integrity between traders and buyers. Basic greed, multiplied by the numbers of traders suffering from this breakdown in human value, ultimately destroys markets, trades, trust and economies. This is the basic psychology behind the fall of world markets throughout history. You can take this back to ancient Egypt, where rules of interaction called on all parties to be honest and true.

The psychology and operation of a healthy market system is based on the principle that when the whole is healthy, the individual is healthy. In Celtic economics this means that all parts of the community cooperate to create a healthy society in which each individual benefits from the whole. If trader A is greedy and rich, while the rest of the community are poor and suffering - how can trader A be healthy? Equally, if a monolithic institution seeks to benefit itself at the expense of the greater economy, the monolith will fall no matter what; because the psychology behind its behaviour is essentially flawed.

An ideal world would be that no human being lies to another, people do not cheat one another, that there is a high spirit of goodness behind all interactions. Only then will communities work together in a way that people do not self-destruct their own lives and their economies. In a society where everyone is greedy and self-serving, future events will reflect this behaviour - because each person will hoard their gains and fear any outside interactions with the face in the mirror.

Add to this an inherent disrespect for the planet we live on, and the attitude that the more resources one has the more powerful one is. To prove the power means to destroy the planetary resources we depend upon for life. This is where the current psychology becomes insanity. When you have to destroy the planet to prove you are in control, then market economics become a black hole feeding itself.

Teller Of Hopi Prophecy to World

Thomas Banyacya, 89, Teller Of Hopi Prophecy to World
nytimes.com

Thomas Banyacya, who spent half a century on a tireless and often thankless Hopi spiritual mission to save the planet from the ravages of modern materialism and greed, died on Feb. 6 at a hospital in Keane Canyon, Ariz., about 40 miles from his home in Kykotsmovi on the Hopi reservation. He was 89 and the last of four messengers named by Hopi elders in 1948 to warn the world of impending doom.

The 15,000 or so Hopis are a small nation, but their sense of burden is great. According to a 900-year-old religious tradition, the Great Spirit Maasau'u, Guardian of the Earth, assigned them the duty of preserving the natural balance of the world and entrusted them with a series of ominous prophecies warning of specific threats and providing guidance on how to avoid them.

The prophecies remained a secret oral tradition until 1948, when Hopi religious leaders, alarmed by reports of the atomic bomb's mushroom cloud, which they saw as the destructive ''gourd of ashes'' foretold in the prophecies, appointed Mr. Banyacya and three others as messengers to reveal and interpret the prophecies to the outside world.

Mr. Banyacya seems to have been an obvious choice. At a time when many Hopis were beginning to embrace modern ways, even accepting the governmental jurisdiction of the United States, he had remained so steadfast in his devotion to the sacred traditions and cherished sovereignty of the Hopi that he had spent seven years in jail rather than register for the draft in World War II.

As he tirelessly explained, the Hopi, whose very name means ''peaceful,'' reject fighting in wars, especially for another nation.

(His moral stand apparently had an impact. In 1953, according to Hopi commentators, after writing a letter to President Dwight D. Eisenhower, Mr. Banyacya helped win an understanding with local Selective Service officials that any Hopi who requested classification as a conscientious objector would receive it.)

Mr. Banyacya's special feelings for his culture emerged early. A native of the Hopi village of Moencopi, he attended the Sherman Indian School in Riverside, Calif., where he was so distressed at being required to use the name Jenkins, which his father had accepted, that he later insisted on using his Hopi name.

At the all-Indian Bacone College in Oklahoma, where he was a star long-distance runner, he chafed at the lack of attention to indigenous cultures and helped establish an Indian lodge where students sang and performed traditional ceremonies.

Although his later efforts to persuade the world to respect nature and protect the environment under the threat of a devastating ''purification,'' produced indifferent results, along the way he forged spiritual alliances with indigenous people around the world and was credited with reviving interest among American Indians in their native cultures.

Mr. Banyacya, whose work was supported by donations, traveled widely in the United States and abroad, something that was made a bit tricky by his refusal to apply for an American passport. It was a reflection of his spiritual appeal that he managed to attend several foreign conferences using a Hopi passport encased in buckskin.

Although his appointment as interpreter of the prophecies gave him a broad mandate, from the beginning his main focus was on securing a hearing at the United Nations in accordance with an ancient prophecy to take the Hopi message of peace, as he put it, ''to the Great House of Mica on the Eastern shore where the nations come together to solve world problems without war.''

Although he was often warmly received by United Nations officials, his efforts to give a speech were repeatedly rebuffed. But then, as he explained, the elders had told him to knock on the door four times.

On his fourth attempt, in 1992, he was allowed to make a brief speech at the General Assembly hall, but on a day when the General Assembly was in recess. Only a few delegates were present when he carefully sprinkled cornmeal on the podium and then delivered his message stressing the need for world leaders to listen to those still living in harmony with nature.

A fierce opponent of uranium mining and a variety of other industrial assaults on the environment, Mr. Banyacya warned that an endless quest for material wealth would destroy the balance of the world; yet he did not reject all modern conveniences. His United Nations address and several other messages can be found on the Internet at dreamscape.com, and the Alpha Institute. 

The Four Sacred Stone Tablets - Hopi & Tibetan Prophecy

Ghosts of Clifton Hall

A millionaire businessman from Nottinghamshire has said ghosts forced him to flee his 52-room mansion.Clifton Hall "But I would have to tell any new owner that it was haunted having experienced it." Clifton Hall was bought by Anwar Rashid for £3.6m in 2007, but he has now handed it back to the bank.

Mr Rashid claimed that during the eight months the family lived there they were haunted by mysterious figures and found unexplained blood stains on bedclothes. He called in paranormal investigators and said he stopped paying the mortgage as a last resort.

The 32-year-old, who is worth £25m, made his money through a chain of nursing homes and a hotel in Dubai, and owns 26 properties. He and his wife Nabila, 25, moved into Clifton Hall - which dates back to the Norman conquest - with their daughters, aged seven, five and three, and 18-month-old son.

Mr Rashid said: "I fell for its beauty but behind the facade it is haunted...
"The ghosts didn't want us to be there and we could not fight them because we couldn't see them."

He said the paranormal experiences began on the day they moved in, ranging from tapping on the wall and unexplained voices to ghostly presences taking the forms of their children. Mr Rashid added: "When we found red blood spots on the baby's quilt, that was the day my wife said she'd had enough. We didn't even stay that night." Even paranormal experts were unable to solve the problem.

The family left in August 2007 and Mr Rashid, who now lives in Wollaton, stopped paying the mortgage in January. The Yorkshire Bank finally reclaimed the hall on Thursday. He said: "When people used to tell me about ghosts, I would never believe them and would say 'whatever'. "But I would have to tell any new owner that it was haunted having experienced it." BBC News

Hurricane Ike Makes Landfall

September 8, 1900 - Hurricane destroyed Galvestone Texas.
September 13, 2008 - Hurricane Ike is following a track similar to the 1900 Galveston hurricane that killed 8000, the deadliest storm in US history.

Does the earth have natural 100, 1000, 10,000... year cycles? Did our ancient ancestors know this? Were they able to understand this natural phenomenon, because they were closer to nature, and because they could see deeper into the mystery that surrounds us?

CERN...Ooops... Do They Know What They Are Doing?

How do particles acquire mass? That is the key question which lead to the creation of the Higgs Boson particle (theory), known as the God Particle. Apparently, the Particle Beam Accelerator - Hadron Collider at CERN was built to prove or disprove the existence of this particle. Does this mean that if the scientists disprove the existence of the God Particle they will disassemble the whole project and go back to watching apples fall from trees?

No matter where life comes from, and how particles acquire mass, the fact is that life in the universe (not only on earth) is a subtle and unique variation of the ongoing process that creates matter. The same process of acquiring mass from particles takes place in grass, water, rocks and stones, humans and animals, trees and soil... It's a process. The factor that separates the unique mass of stone from the unique mass of a human body is frequency - magnetic frequency. The creation principle is everywhere and in everything at all times. So why would anyone want to isolate a single process through which particles acquire mass?

Perhaps there is a hidden code within the particles acquiring mass process, hiding its origins and design. Mirrors within mirrors reflect back to the seeker the image they project onto the field of life. Nuclear bombs have already been employed to destroy vast areas of life in a single blast. The alpha-dog seems always ready to prove itself against the under-dog with bigger and more destructive weapons. The human interaction particle manifests immediate action, where the alpha-dog works to bring the under-dog to his level. Maybe that is the Sharing Particle?

In the future, finely tuned Alchemists will seek the particle that acquires mass co-operation on a planetary scale. A particle that holds together societies, families and friends. A particle that negates hatred and fear. A particle that manifests a sense of togetherness (compassion), negating particle isolation and separation. Because, if sub-atomic particles behaved the way humans behave nothing would exist on this planet.

While world industrial governments entertain the masses with stories of finding God's Particle... I see it everywhere I look. Which causes me to respect all life, including the planet I live on. The human brain, when it functions correctly, is designed to understand the nature of the universe. In understanding how life resonates, the mind discovers compassion for all things. The alpha-dog understands that he is powerful only when he uses his strength to empower the under-dog to be a light unto himself.

Earthquake Hits Iran - Shakes Dubai The earthquake on Wednesday afternoon was near Bandar Abbas in Hormuzgan province, home to one of Iran's major oil refineries. mwcnews.net The earth tremor hit a triangular area between Ras Al Khaimah, Al Ain and Dubai. Such tremors are common in many major cities of the world, but Dubai residents have not felt them before and will be looking for answers to the question of likely future seismic activity in the emirate. mangalorean.com

One theory suggested that after a series of random earthquakes, Earth would start to crack up; molten lava would wash over the land and the seas would start to boil; mega-hurricanes and cyclones would level buildings and forests; and eventually, mountains would crumble as Earth's crust continued to disintegrate.
