When is the Tipping Point?

what is going to be the tipping point for truth and balance and life stewardship to become the norm on this lovely planet? The 24 hour news cycle landscape and the on going narrative of the main stream is obviously not to be trusted. The content is at best decontextualized speculation and heresay, usually riddled with fabrications that are rarely corrected when the truth is revealed later. They don't air the real laundry, and none of the information is really useful without context so mostly it just drives a fear frenzy in the population that believes it is the only truth. The main stream narrative has never been trustworthy so why progressives suddenly flock to it is beyond me. They have a supposed common enemy in Pres Trump but that is no reason to throw out common sense. I don't like our president and I still know the main stream press is an enemy to the people. Go find better sources of news, and lots of them and listen to all the amazing music while your at it. Shiftfrequency.com is a good place to start as it is both political and spiritual in its content so you can get some news in context, read your horoscope, and hear about some things they may seem pretty far fetched. Happy trails. The modern Dems (since JFK was killed in a coup) have never been here for the middle class or the cause of social/ecological justice. About all they've done towards the cause is defended reproductive rights and the rights of the LGBTQ community. Other than that, they are just as bad as the other party regarding the big structural issues in our world. Whether its finance industry reform, prison/justice reform, slowing the war machine, reigning in corporate hubris and a wasteful economy not based on best use of resources and technology, or any number of other major issues threatening our existence, both parties and the main stream media are failing horribly and are clearly colluding for the benefit of the corporate state takeover and the upper most classes. I for one don't exactly know what it will take to shed light in the dark places, but I certainly hope it happens soon. There are atrocities and traumas being inflicted in so many ways against all inhabitants of this planet, both plant and animal. This has been going on for thousands of years but at present is effecting pretty much every inch of the planet. I do hope the star nations come soon, to support the white hats in our militaries and bureaucracies, reveal what is truly possible for us technologically, and the bullies in the playground are finally punished for their thousands year reign over Gaia and their breaking of universal laws. I do believe we need to continue doing our work, fighting waste and hubris of all kinds and being kind and loving to all our relations, including ourselves. Love is the answer and the fuel and the spark! Looking inside ourselves with compassion, pausing for a bird or a breeze, sharing light and laughs, this is our best medicine... and along with political action, life style changes, and intelligent discourse we can change the world and it is already happening.

Welcome Home

Well I hope all the love raining down on us is helping usher in a new era of honesty and clearing away what ever needs to be cleared away. There is a lot of talk nowadays, the inter web is so full of life and truth and haters too. Glad to be alive and ready for what will come, if anything, to expose reality in a more comprehensive fashion. Peace and Blessings to all of you! Love is Life

Thanks again and love something today!

Sorry for the mess friends...

I've been feeling guilty of being human lately. It seems we at an all time low of intelligence. So here is my formal apology. Love to all!


Apology to the Universe

I can only speak for myself. What myself encompasses entirely is presently beyond the knowledge of the conscious creature incarnate here on planet earth, alive through a body that is made of the same stuff as the terrestrial habitat it roams. I speak for that conscious creature, and the operating personality that assists in navigation of the terrain.

I don’t know why we are given such a sublime gift and not able to operate it smoothly. It seems easy enough to live here, to work, play, dance, perform, write… sleep. Maybe the other 80% percent of our brain could bring it in. How do we turn that on?

I can see all the answers to humanities woes and the dark clouds that hinder these solutions. It is obvious that something is amiss and that some group of string pullers does not like being around humans that are healthy, awake, and fulfilled.

Many think it is just a mechanism of greed consolidated with megalomania, some think it is just a whole lot of disconnected greed, working itself out on the population.

It seems rather clear that many humans have forgotten how to live on this planet. How to give birth, save seed, and live through winter. Plenty still do, but vast tracts of this beautiful planet are being ruined, culturally and ecologically, to feed this population.

This gem of blue shining in the universe is revered by many of you out there I am almost sure. So I really am sorry for what we are doing here. Sorry for all of it.

Every tree cut instead of the fiber queen hemp being used to make lumber.

Every mountain blown up or dug out for minerals or fuel that we don’t really need instead of using wind, solar, biomass, pneumatics, and textiles.

For all the unnecessarily toxic manufacturing processes we utilize and the waste we do almost nothing to stop.

For the industrialized agriculture, feed lot, pasteurizing machine that poisons the holy relationship of land, food, and kitchen.

For butchering and poisoning ill people instead of giving them botanical preparations, appropriate diets, manual therapies, and exercises.

For all the wasted water, like putting excrement in one of the universe’s most valuable resource, FRESH WATER, WTF!

For the damage that all those activities cause to waterways and aquifers.

For the senseless pillage of our own dignity, our cultural heritage, and the traumatic abuse that goes on all over the planet;

Abuse to trees and plants,
to animals,
to rivers and oceans,
to the land,
and to each other.

I feel ashamed some moments, I feel rage roiling up in me, I say
“Stupid Humans” and move on with remorse and love and faith that some how those of us that care will be given that chance again.

I am sorry my friends who love this place.
I’m sorry for how stupid we have let ourselves become.
If you want to help us, now is the time.
Love

If you can't choose your own health care options, how are you free?

Here is a letter you can paste and send to your Representatives, send it to your state reps too. Everyone should hear about this.

Ron Paul wants to make the FDA, a quasi G.O. that is inhabited thoroughly by big Pharma and big Ag, do it's own work to DIS credit valid traditional medicine. We have been healing each other for thousands of years in almost the same way, and I would like to continue, for myself. Even if you don't want traditional medicine and prefer the treatments and drugs they have invented in the last 100 or so years, ensure that options are available. Even Loius Pasture realized on his death bed that his work was wrong and subsequently mishandled.

Below the letter are a few links about the FDA and the AMA, both caught with their pants down behind the wood shed, helping their "friends" in "food" and "medicine" manufacturing bring us such brilliant care. Thanks.

Support Ron Paul's Health Freedom Protection Act, H.R. 2117

Tell Your Congressmen and Women to Co Sponsor the Health Freedom Protection Act, H.R. 2117

The FDA is on a rampage against dietary supplements. Preventing reasonable and factual health claims, the FDA is using its immense power to fuel the pharmaceutical profit picture at the expense of the lives and health of hundreds of thousands of Americans each year. The rights of Americans to learn about natural products through truthful, science-based health claims is routinely stifled to the detriment of health and health freedom in the United States.



This bill shifts the burden of proof onto the FDA whenever the agency wants to deny the public the benefit of health claims information about Dietary Supplements.

H. R. 2117 allows reasonable health claims, with proper disclosure language, "unless the Secretary determines that -- `(i) there is no scientific evidence that supports the claim; and `(ii) the claim is inherently misleading and incapable of being rendered non misleading through the addition of a disclaimer." Thus, even "a scintilla" of scientific evidence would allow the making of claims that Dietary Supplements may be of benefit to individuals. The requirements of the bill are consistent with the law that already governs the agency's position, announced in 2004, "FDA intends to apply a standard for substantiating claims for dietary supplements that is consistent with the Federal Trade Commission's (FTC's) standard for dietary supplements and other health related products of 'competent and reliable scientific evidence'."

Current FDA policy, in violation of US Case Law, is to deny truthful claims which do not relate to either structure or function. All other truthful health claims are currently forbidden by the FDA. This bill would greatly enhance public access to truthful and
not misleading health information, in keeping with the US Supreme Court's dictum in Thompson v. Western States Medical Centers and presents a clear opportunity to enhance legal
protections for Dietary Supplements and natural remedies.



Urge your Congressmen/women to press for passage of H. R. 2117 and to introduce sister legislation into the Senate. This Health over-regulation of safe food substances to what should properly be considered their main task, protecting people from dangerous drugs and medical devices.



Please use this opportunity to encourage your Representatives to work with other congresspeople to join as cosponsors and your Senators to introduce sister legislation and get behind the Health Freedom Protection Act.


Yours in health and freedom,

Dr. Rima

Here is a little history of the various acts that have enabled the FDA over the years
Dirty trail

Wiki for the AMA, American Medical Association here.

Here is a quote from another history of the AMA.
"The American Medical Association, organized in New York in 1848, advanced two seemingly innocent propositions in its early days: that all doctors should have a "suitable education" and that a "uniform elevated standard of requirements for the degree of M.D. should be adopted by all medical schools in the U.S." These were part of the AMA's real program, which was openly discussed at its conventions and in the medical journals: to secure a government-enforced medical monopoly and high incomes for mainstream doctors.

Membership in the new organization was open only to "regular" physicians, whose therapies were based on the "best system of physiology and pathology, as taught in the best schools in Europe and America." The public had a different view, however. Official treatments of the time, such as bloodletting and mercury poisoning, harmed and sometimes murdered patients, causing mass outrage."

Piqued your interest enough?
Here is the rest of it.

THE NEW DEAL, PART TWO

It's obvious now that what ever our new deal is so far it's no deal at all. nothing but random pork, bank bailouts that will just help people exit the lending market and bouey poorly run institutions, highway construction to help continue a blind subsidy of long haul trucking, new crack downs on property rights and health care freedoms.

WE NEED TO STAND UP AND BE COUNTED PEOPLE!
IT'S TIME TO NOTIFY THESE LOOSERS IN CONGRESS THEY ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR STEERING THE SHIP, AND THE PRESIDENT TOO.

I have composed a letter, please copy and email, or print and snail it to your representatives in DC. It is a simple call to balance the equation and bring our country and humanity back to the light. We are falling people, learn to fly or die!


hello elected officials,

As you may know, in the waning days of the Bush Administration, the BLM signed a decision to drastically increase the amount of clear cutting on public lands. This decision (know as the Western Oregon Plan Revisions or “WOPR”) was opposed by over 25,000 Americans who asked the BLM to manage these lands for the benefit of all, not just for the profits of a few. Now the BLM contends that despite the wishes of the public, that large-scale clear cutting will be their primary forest “management” tool.

Now the WOPR itself exposes a larger flaw in the system because it was created as a response to rural western counties need for payments from their “occupied for free” federal lands. TO GET MONEY, TIMBER MUST BE HARVESTED. This is an unsustainable policy arrangement and is unfair due to the amount of taxable land base these counties loose.

We as a nation are vulnerable to Federal Forest land decisions, and in rural western counties especially so. This comes both in changes to our quality of life including loss of salmon economy, recreation opportunities, , as well as larger direct services large swathes of mature forests provide, such as weather and atmospheric stablisation, carbon sequestration, wild life habitat, crucial to national food supplies, local water qualities and well managed forest doesn’t burn as hot, cutting down on costs incurred from fighting wild fires.

This policy is why the BLM created WOPR, so rural westerncounties can get some money from the millions of federal acres on which they collect no annual taxes.

I ENCOURAGE A NO HARVEST PAYMENT SYSTEM FOR ALL STATES WITH FEDERAL LANDS.

We need the tax base payments to be fairly represented in Washington DC! A western state legislative coalition (that perhaps some mid and eastern state reps join) could easily make this happen. Salmon create jobs and human food, 2x4s are just a waste of resource when other composite fiber options are available and provide an overall savings in resource conversion. This coupled with increased farm products and low energy manufacturing = a huge reason to team up and transform the economy of more than just western states with two simple initiatives:

A NO HARVEST PAYMENT SYSTEM FOR ALL STATES WITH FEDERAL LANDS, TO HELP PAY RURAL COUNTIES FOR THEIR ROLE IN PROTECTION AND LONG TERM RESTORATIVE MANAGEMENT OF THESE VALUEBLE STRATEGIC RESOURCES.

IT WILL ALSO MAKE THE FEDERAL OCCUPATION OF THESE LANDS A LITTLE MORE FAIR.

DECRIMINALIZING INDUSTRIAL HEMP TO JUMP START THE MOST LUCRATIVE AND INNOVATIVE TIME IN OUR HISTORY; ONE THAT WILL BRING FARMERS AND NICHE MANUFACTURERS TO THE FOREFRONT OF THE ECONOMY AND PUT MILLIONS BACK TO WORK, PRODUCING FIBER PRODUCTS THAT WILL EASILY REPLACE THE BUILDING MATERIALS NOW HARVESTED FROM SOFT WOOD FORESTS, HIGH VALUE PROTIEN FOOD STUFFS AND EASY TO PROCESS FUELS OR PLASTICS FROM THE SEEDS, AND STURDY RICH SOIL THAT WILL HELP REPLACE THE MILLIONS OF TONS WE HAVE LOST OVER THE LAST CENURY.

WE ARE POISED AT THE CLIFF AND MUST JUMP INTO SPACE AND FLY BY THE TIME WE REACH BOTTOM OR WE DIE!

IT IS TIME FOR A LEGISLATIVE COALITION TO FORM AND MAKE THIS HAPPEN. WE WILL ALL HAVE JOBS, THE ATMOSPHERE WILL IMPROVE, THE SOIL WILL IIMPROVE, SALMON WILL BE ALLOWED TO RETURN IN GREAT NUMBERS, WESTERN RURAL COUNTIES WILL FEEL INCLUDED AND FAIRLY TREATED, FUEL PRICES WILL STABALIZE, INNOVATION WILL ESCALATE, AND YOUR CONSTITUENTS WILL FEEL RESPECTED.

WE WILL TURN THE TIDES ON FUEL SCARCITY, CLIMATE ISSUES, ECONOMIC ISSUES, SOCIAL ISSUES AND LEARN TO FLY INSTEAD OF DIE!

YOU MUST DO IT!

IF YOU DO NOT, IT WILL BE KNOWN BY ALL THAT READ AND SEND THIS, THAT YOU PEOPLE, NOT YOUR OFFICES, ACTED AS FIDUCIARIES FOR THE WORLD’S RULING/OWNING ELITE INSTEAD OF THE PEOPLE WHO ELECTED YOU, AND WE MAY, DUE TO THE PERILOUS NATURE OF OUR POSITION AS A SPECIES AT PRESENT MOMENT, FIND YOU GUILTY OF CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY. INDIVIDUALS MAY ACT IN BAD WAYS, YOU ARE DOING THIS PERSONALLY AND THEY MAY SEEK RETRIBUTION. THIS IS THE END GAME AND ITS UP TO YOU PEOPLE TO CUT OUR CHAINS AND LET OUR WINGS GROW.

DO NOT GIVE OUR COUNTRY AWAY AND SELL US OFF AS SLAVES!

DO THE RIGHT THING NOW!

NOW SOME MUSIC
Sweat Shop Union is great hip hop act out of BC. They're vocal harmonies, conscious content, and excellent craftmanship give them 3 gold stars on my chart! My space here. Happy days, you better read and send that letter, notify the man you will not be a slave!

Raise you voice for food purity and property rights!

First check Here for some excellent music that came through my small town last night...very well written and sung. Not to be missed.

I am really concerned about some legislation being fast tracked through congress right now. HR 875 and S 425 are both "food security" measures that will force all farms and ranches, no matter size or scale, to adhere to specific practices. These are counter to natural and organic methods of land stewardship and will basically back door the destruction safe and pure food.

This also flies in the face of property rights and choice of methods to run your enterprise, where do we live folks? Looks like Hitlers Germany to me...

I have not read the bill, but there is a lot of chatter about it so I'm suggesting a firm no. Tell your elected officials, they will listen. Tell them you don't want super agencies to control our food or health care, NO to the new "food czar" and "health care czar". These new federal agencies are sure to be worse than the ones we already have. Tell the them to divest the FDA also. Do it now, please.

Please click onto the congress.org link to the right and do something about it, please
this government is slipping backwards so quickly it's amazing. We need less control not more...

Gotta run. ciao
