BWorld 479, Lockdown déjà vu or back to normal
Bienvenido Oplas Jr, Government and Taxes - 21 hours ago
* My article in BusinessWorld, March 16, 2021. The Philippines will mark its first anniversary of strict lockdown today (March 16). Going for another year, do we expect to experience lockdown déjà vu, the same familiar mobility restrictions, or should we demand we go back to a normal open economy? *THE PHILIPPINES HAD THE WORST LOCKDOWN POLICIES IN THE WORLD IN 2020.* Going through the long excel sheets of per country daily mobility changes of people in the Google COVID-19 Community Mobility Reports (GCCMR), changes from the baseline period Jan. 3 — Feb. 6, 2020, the Philippines ...
JFK jr as Q?
arclein, Terra Forming Terra - 21 hours ago
This burst came out friday night. Nothing here that is truly new except the present status of Pence. So we do not know if we can trust any of it. After saying that, I have long since thought that JFK jr was an excellent prospect for Q using the Mil Intel Feed to select and distribute information. That is once I knew that his been alive was not imposssible at all. Recall, he is a likely fan of the New York Times Crossword. and throw in Gematria puzzles as well. There cannot be a lot really into all this either. We must still put out the question mark, but right now a livi...
Paradigm-Shifting ‘UFO’ Tech That Alters Space-Time Is “Operable” – U.S. Navy Chief Tech Officer
arclein, Terra Forming Terra - 21 hours ago
The absurdity of all this is that the patent for a triangular gravity ship was applied for in 2004. We have seem just that craft and it has been flying since around 1980. This is the size of a football field and able to carry a powerful laser able to produce those crop circles. All this is available in broad daylight. That picture you see is the configuaration of our gravity ships, How we discover they have replicated the known craft that operate in the ocean as well.

Hellyer reported at least 75 known separate aliens that have some sort of presence here. Most appear to be sporadic visits. At the same time, we have greys who appear to be human desendents from our future intent on harvesting DNA for the purpose of upgrading their DNA.

Am I my connectome?
arclein, Terra Forming Terra - 21 hours ago
We can count and possibly map the connectivity of the brain. That is the good news. What is missing is that each neurone is operated by a dark matter processor also able to store and connect to information acquired in the past. We can do the same thing with a global phone network, yet make no claim on the human brain associated with each address. No one seems to grasp the implied depth of information density implied by a single cell to which the physical connection is only one key link. Every cell can be easily compared to the population of humans and cars inside a large cit...
“RUSSIA IS THE ENEMY” IS THE ADVERTISEMENT WHICH SAVES THE US AD INDUSTRY FROM COLLAPSE AND KEEPS US JOURNALISTS IN THEIR JOBS

The True Origin of Overseas Nonproliferation Treaty Troubles
Marshall Billingslea, The National Interest - 22 hours ago
*Marshall Billingslea* *Nonproliferation, * If there is a violation of the NPT occurring, then it is not by the UK, it is by China. On Tuesday, the United Kingdom rolled out its long-anticipated National Security Integrated Review. The section regarding the enhancement of the UK’s nuclear forces is refreshingly straightforward and contains much of the same logic that should underpin forthcoming U.S. decisions on the modernization of our own strategic deterrent. The UK declares that “A minimum, credible, independent nuclear deterrent, assigned to the defense of NATO, remains esse...
Gravitino must never be motionless? A swampland hypothesis
Luboš Motl, The Reference Frame - 22 hours ago
In a new hep-th paper The Gravitino Swampland ConjectureEdward W. Kolb, Andrew J. Long, and Evan McDonough (Chicago/Houston) propose a new swampland principle – a new condition that must be obeyed for an effective field theory coupled to gravity to be capable of a consistent completion to a regime of quantum gravity and/or string theory. They postulate a simple rule: The gravitino speed must never drop to zero in any vacuum and any conditions. If true, such an assumption also has consequences.

Victory! Monsanto Patent on One of World’s Most Popular Fruits Finally Revoked After Challenge From Environmental Groups
Nick Meyer, AltHealthWorks.com - 23 hours ago
While Monsanto, now owned by German pharmaceutical, chemical, and agricultural giant Bayer, is perhaps most known for its genetically engineered seeds, the company also has a history of bringing hybridized seeds to market. Hybridized seeds are not spliced laboratories like genetically engineered seeds (also known as GMOs or genetically modified organisms), but they are also capable of being patented by corporations in certain circumstances. In May 2011, the Monsanto Company was granted a patent on one of the world’s most favorite, and healthiest fruits, despite the fact that the law...

*Kris Osborn* *Electronic Warfare, * For years there has been a growing chorus of senior military leaders and weapons developers saying that the military force which dominates the electromagnetic spectrum will prevail in future conflict.

Leszek Kołakowski has given an excellent description of the utopian mentality as we have been encountering it since the eighteenth century: “History is portrayed as catastrophic, not evolutionary… There is a radical discontinuity between the world as it is and as it will be; a violent leap is needed to do away with the past; a new time will start.” The utopians ignore the will of the people, ...
Headed for a Collapsing Debt Bubble
War News Updates Editor, War News Updates - 1 day ago
*Our Finite World:* *Headed for a Collapsing Debt Bubble * A $1.9 trillion stimulus package was recently signed into law in the United States. Can such a stimulus bill, plus packages passed in other countries, really pull the world economy out of the downturn it has been in 2020? I don’t think so. The economy runs on energy, far more than it operates on growing debt. Our energy problems don’t appear to be fixable in the near term, such as six months or a year. Instead, the economy seems to be headed for a collapse of its debt bubble. Eventually, we may see a reset of the world fi...
