type='text'>HBP or high blood pressure.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.westonaprice.org/ask-the-doctor/high-blood-pressure"&gt;http://www.westonaprice.org/ask-the-doctor/high-blood-pressure&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And which fortunatly i don't experience.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;My reason for sending this to folks is i think we live in a&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;society mind set which fosters... go along to get along.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And so for an example, if we have a specialty degree we somehow assume that spills over into&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;other essential survival realms.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And besides doesn't everyone over forty take a drug for cholesterol control or blood pressure or both?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And don't most of us weigh allot more than we need too?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And don't most of us use reduced fat dairy and really overall shun fats?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Even to the extent of preferring poly unsaturated fats dosed with&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;fructose?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;All of these corporate instruction are not working for us and the people telling us to do this are not our friends.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So if you have excess belly fat it's not a 'reserve currency' and something the specie has always carried around.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;It's your ticket to serious health issues.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And if you happen to be in the category of: "Their is nothing i can do about so i won't think about it."&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And besides i have a will! &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;And when it gets to the will state, everyone looses.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Or the even more direct fear response: "I don't want to know."&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Well ponder this when you health quickly goes in the ditch and then you will be confronted with both of these.... I don't want to knows!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And it maybe to late to know!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And the rationalisation of: I did what they told me to do! is functional when we are kids, since we may not have a choice and&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;the over forties defiantly do.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So the article above is just and example of how we have to assess what WE are doing and whether it is effective.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

But then this a special time of year in a place.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Also, I have read that towards the moment when the corporate backed Fascist took over in Germany&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Their appeared a number of desperate articles by the informed who where trying to tell the public what was coming.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And today it is similar as the public listens to the 1% and then continues to listen to Fox News who confirm&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;that we will be SAFE.... once the corporate police state is initiated.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The flip side of this is the rationalisation that i hear from people.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And actually some they imply as well.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;"I'm going to the mountains!" They can hardly make it here on the couch or living near a&amp;nbsp;Walmart. &amp;nbsp;Why would they survive in the mountains?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And then cutting off the roads or the fuel or using drones on those who don't voluntarily go to the concentration camps.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;We'll good ole boys soon become... good little boys and girls.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And for that special category: The "I don't want to know!" You don't need too... just follow orders as you are part of the problem&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;as well.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Or then some express their special status such as: I'm a loyal corporate flag waver or I'm an old soldier who did&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;allot of bad stuff when i was in ...................Yeah, that may give you special status in hell, but not with the masters.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Or, "I'm an American Fundamental White Christian &amp;nbsp;(which is today's little fascist seed pods) and i hate rag heads, niggers, spics and queers".&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Yep, these folks are pretty special.... but sorry they also are just scum and like the rest of us as far as the masters are concerned.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Have a good new year in front of the brain drain.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/917907928082076417-6183194933302167938?l=messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/feeds/6183194933302167938/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=917907928082076417&amp;postID=6183194933302167938' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/6183194933302167938'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/6183194933302167938'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/2011/12/our-own-dear-leaders-have-suprise.html' title='Our own dear leaders have a suprise coming up and for all of us!'/><author><name>Larry</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12496812753716619946</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-917907928082076417.post-9063244672703176895</id><published>2011-12-26T15:08:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2012-01-02T16:40:35.181-08:00</updated><title type='text'>signifcant article</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.spiegel.de/international/europe/0,1518,805135,00.html"&gt;http://www.spiegel.de/international/europe/0,1518,805135,00.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And very possibly correct in it's conclusions.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Conclusions in my opinion and using everyday terms.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;They are loading the garbage barge and calling it fresh produce.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Though come summer i think it will become apparent it's just more wilted lettuce.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;OK, if that wasn't abstruse enough for you how about this?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Their are a few laws of Physics which seem to prevail, and no matter how many new gadgets we&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;assure ourselves are the final break through to perpetual motion.... or the reversal&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;of energy flow.

Distribution is a term from the equities market indicating the junk is continuing to be sold to the suckers.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And the question might be: Can this reach down to the wanna be's right here in&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Gods green acres?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/917907928082076417-3335298636197101357?l=messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/feeds/3335298636197101357/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=917907928082076417&amp;postID=3335298636197101357' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/3335298636197101357'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/3335298636197101357'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/2011/12/question-for-all-of-us.html' title='question for all of us'/><author><name>Larry</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12496812753716619946</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-917907928082076417.post-4563814017070810192</id><published>2011-12-21T19:45:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2012-01-02T16:38:40.358-08:00</updated><title type='text'>revealing charts!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.chrismartenson.com/blog/worse-2008/67136"&gt;http://www.chrismartenson.com/blog/worse-2008/67136&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;For those that may not want to know what the financial world is being confronted with&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I suggest you don't go down to the 'who owes whom' charts.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;But for just a hint: It's the US.... and the graph indicates far worse than what ever&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;the named and now just named European countries are confronted with.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;But you still my want to cherry pick Martensons' essay for other information.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The best of the 'I don't want to know' responses i have recently got was from&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;a middle class women in her sixties with some cash assets who mentioned her funds are being "managed&amp;nbsp;for her".&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I asked her how she was determining the managing was a prudent choice and especially if that was the&amp;nbsp;extent of her liquid assets?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And with out a moment posse she responded: "Well, if that fails I'm going home!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I asked where and why she would be going home and of course with what?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The lady quickly and sincerely responded she was going to heaven!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Hey, you can't argue with that response?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;But it might make you wonder is not thinking for yourself or just not thinking is the key to the gate.

The Juan de Fuka area today@ 1600 hours.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Also, Southern California yesterday and then west coast of Mexico day before that.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I know nothing but what i see. And I'm looking for indications of a new developing pattern.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;As this area has had minimal action, while the rest of the Pacific rim is and has been double firing.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Honshu off coast of Northern Japan is the most evident active area, and i assume it is also another plate subduction area&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;similar to the Cascade subduction area (about 500 miles in length) which is sometimes referred to as the Juan de Fuka&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;which is also the straights at the northern end.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The Pacific North Eastern seismologist are watching it all, but if i understand it correctly they are primarily concerned regarding significant&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;earthquake action along the subduction area. Which is about fifty miles off the coast from the Cape of Mendocino to Vancouver Island.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And inland Oregon such as the Willamette Valley are considered relatively quite seismic areas.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Along the coast it will be Tsunami's which will do the damage to the population centers if we are just considering humans. And actually other specie's are&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;not considered as significant, so they are not counted or indicated or mourned.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Maybe to put this in perspective California has mostly plates which slide against each other such as the Hayward or San Andreas and though different in action they can also generate very high seismic readings.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/917907928082076417-4255126596249457665?l=messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/feeds/4255126596249457665/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=917907928082076417&amp;postID=4255126596249457665' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/4255126596249457665'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/4255126596249457665'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/2011/12/seismic-events-of-interest.html' title='Seismic events of interest'/><author><name>Larry</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12496812753716619946</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-917907928082076417.post-4897850627509541632</id><published>2011-12-20T09:09:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2012-01-02T16:38:17.719-08:00</updated><title type='text'>California pensions</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.ocregister.com/opinion/retirement-331571-stanford-california.html"&gt;http://www.ocregister.com/opinion/retirement-331571-stanford-california.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;This couldn't happen here!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Economic disaster supposedly only happens to someone else&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;who are also somewhere else.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/917907928082076417-4897850627509541632?l=messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/feeds/4897850627509541632/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=917907928082076417&amp;postID=4897850627509541632' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/4897850627509541632'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/4897850627509541632'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/2011/12/california-pensions.html' title='California pensions'/><author><name>Larry</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12496812753716619946</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-917907928082076417.post-2303350063416542269</id><published>2011-12-19T19:52:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2012-01-02T16:38:07.972-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Who can we trust?</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://online.barrons.com/article/SB50001424052748703856804577098740322633760.html"&gt;http://online.barrons.com/article/SB50001424052748703856804577098740322633760.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;It comes down to who can we trust?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;These are the rich upper crust who tell us: it's the welfare cheats that are ruining the nations economy.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;In other words for the nations dumb-bo's, just don't look up!

Or more likley especially Soy oil and soy products.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Also cutting deeply into carbohydrate and sugar intake.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And why would any one even consider doing something as drastic as that?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Besides ourselves their are kids who eat what we offer them.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Also it does seem to eliminate heart disease, diabetes, most cancers, and a long, long list of neurological disorders.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;You know like dementia and Alzheimer's along with inflammatory problems in our joints and brain.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Enig does have PhD and taught at U. of Maryland, so it's not like Mary has not done the lab work as well&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;as the clinical studies.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;3 to 5 tablespoons per day while eliminating the trans fats and lowering the carbs and just stopping the constant sugar intake.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;For and even more extensive presentation on this subject and in print form see: Bruce Fife's, book: Stop Alzheimer's Now...which was just published.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The wave of the future for the Baby Boomers is all the debilitating illness listed above as well as a care center to cater $$$$ to our needs.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;They daily and X3 serve lots of carbs and poly oil laced with sugar along with a long list of meds which will double our brain fog.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Some folks reading this will conclude i am being negative...as usual.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;My response is it's better than living it and then expecting others to carry us.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/917907928082076417-117731959771865009?l=messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/feeds/117731959771865009/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=917907928082076417&amp;postID=117731959771865009' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/117731959771865009'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/117731959771865009'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/2011/12/eat-fat-loose-fat.html' title='Eat Fat, Loose Fat.'/><author><name>Larry</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12496812753716619946</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-917907928082076417.post-6598569448433265738</id><published>2011-12-13T12:44:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2012-01-02T16:35:28.829-08:00</updated><title type='text'>"It's different this time!"</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.theoildrum.com/node/8697#more" target="_blank"&gt;http://www.theoildrum.com/node/8697#more&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Dear Friends; and especially those now on the road to recovery and wealth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Or so we are again told by the nice people... that's it's going to be different,&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;this time!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;But first we need to define nice people in our modern times. Why it's seems it's those that tell us they are nice $$$$&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;My father was also in the Klondike gold rush of 1897 and which is briefly described in this&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;article on oil fracing. He mentioned he went for the adventure and that few guys made&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;money that's unless they where already selling something the crowd needed.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;This is probably accurate on both counts. Dad was not seriously motivated to accumulate personal wealth.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;He told me for most of us wealth turns out to be a allusion that we can't translate into happiness.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And actually, and though his life appeared difficult to me... he did seem over all to be happy.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Back to the enclosed fracing article.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Gee, i wonder if that could be accurate as to what's happening now with oil fracing?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Remember Dude, Fracing is hot!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Of course, their are the issues of the ground water contamination and now induced earthquakes.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;But you know 'those people'..... they always want to hold up...progress. And which the nice people always point out&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;they are for... because it's what the country needs.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And i don't mean to be rude... but i have to wonder if this just might be the next economic bubble?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;It seems that when in our guts, bubbles give us the symptoms of: gas.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;But then we can assume nice people don't experience the turbulent actions of methane.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Even though they just keep smiling. So gas it would seem is their friend and we can hope they dont ...burp.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/917907928082076417-6598569448433265738?l=messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/feeds/6598569448433265738/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=917907928082076417&amp;postID=6598569448433265738' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/6598569448433265738'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/6598569448433265738'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/2011/12/its-different-this-time.html' title='&quot;It&apos;s different this time!&quot;'/><author><name>Larry</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12496812753716619946</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-917907928082076417.post-3539627907615902293</id><published>2011-12-13T09:48:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2012-01-02T16:35:12.205-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Real Esstate Scams...BIG TIME</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.businessweek.com/magazine/the-king-of-all-vegas-real-estate-scams-12082011.html?campaign_id=rss_topStories"&gt;http://www.businessweek.com/magazine/the-king-of-all-vegas-real-estate-scams-12082011.html?campaign_id=rss_topStories&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Dear friends...In the news seems to be Real Estate scams to die for!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Though i didn't initiate or ask for the information a 'lady' from LV recently told me it was the cheating buyers who wanted something for nothing who caused the&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Real Estate crash and which i 'read' is ...still happening.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;This seem to be the other side of the story and specifically in white heaven on earth...LV.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/917907928082076417-3539627907615902293?l=messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/feeds/3539627907615902293/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=917907928082076417&amp;postID=3539627907615902293' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/3539627907615902293'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/3539627907615902293'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/2011/12/real-esstate-scamsbig-time.html' title='Real Esstate Scams...BIG TIME'/><author><name>Larry</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12496812753716619946</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-917907928082076417.post-4768259631674230853</id><published>2011-12-12T09:29:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2012-01-02T16:34:56.193-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Where it is and going</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://kunstler.com/blog/2011/12/the-cookie-crumbles.html"&gt;http://kunstler.com/blog/2011/12/the-cookie-crumbles.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;like in gone.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Yeah, Kinstler seems to have pegged it.

Nope!.... to be non technical.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So it's Medoff&amp;nbsp;but wearing Teflon, in my opinion.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/917907928082076417-7930315339515608693?l=messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/feeds/7930315339515608693/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=917907928082076417&amp;postID=7930315339515608693' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/7930315339515608693'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/7930315339515608693'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/2011/12/scam-from-on-high.html' title='Scam from on high!'/><author><name>Larry</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12496812753716619946</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-917907928082076417.post-5973518418629680119</id><published>2011-12-08T20:06:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2012-01-02T16:34:10.832-08:00</updated><title type='text'>water kefir</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.culturesforhealth.com/water-kefir"&gt;http://www.culturesforhealth.com/water-kefir&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Things to do while watching the puppy grow.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;No puppy?

Might i add: Rich people are always nice people if you are a.. wanna be.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Apparently, or so she told me it's that old problem, that young people are lazy and want everything for nothing.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;You can replace "young people" with 'those people' which is really what she is referring too, as i could tell southern charm was just under the&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;edge of I'm now a retired and rich business lady.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Apparently, it wasn't the Banks and the Realtors who got these people upside down on their home loans.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;It was those people ...again...who where looking for something for nothing.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So it comes down to: They should have read the contract they signed before they got themselves in this bind.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Yep, it's the victims fault and as the robber said.

Do what the big guys are already doing.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And the big guys are not being negative... as they plan to still be the big guys even if we&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;are all living in the dumpster.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Alright, still stuck, try this ...if the row boat is sinking what do you do? Row harder or throw the&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;ballast over board?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Still puzzled?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;If you don't have diddly in stock, bonds or investments...great. I don't either.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;But lets say you have retirement investment plans or real estate that you maybe paying on.These are all indirect market investments.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And you have been doing estate planning and now it's just bumping along. The chuck hole is straight ahead.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And that's followed by a broken axle.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And i don't have either of those either. But if you do!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Do you think they are safe investments if the&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;cookie is crumbling?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The central banks or Federal Reserve Bank if you prefer is going to print, baby print!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And the more they print the less we got.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;You may think.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Then it will be easier to make payments on fixed expenses.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Right on! But in practice it doesn't 'work out' that way.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;If it did then inflation or printing money would have limits when the problem reached a leveling point.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Inflation doesn't have a leveling place, just a crash from a greater height.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Zimbabwe will be USA.... spelled inside out.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So again ask yourself who is being negative?

London bridges. yes, wet, wild&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;and down.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;How is this going to end?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;We'll i will venture those that have it. Meaning Germany and France (G&amp;amp;F)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;will end up still holding the purses.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And those that don't and never have (PIIGS) will end up where they started&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;still poor and getting poorer. I have not seen the comparison made but in a sense&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;what we have been seeing is the vandals or Huns at the gates and telling the Romans&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;give us you wealth or where coming in with our pikes and short swords.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Their will remain some form of EU for crossing borders with commerce. &amp;nbsp;But G&amp;amp;F sure are not going to&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;continue to share the purse with the (street people or Roma's) and which is the way the PIIGS are viewed.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;When that plays out (collapse) and soon, they will start to put things in order again.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;China might even come in with a "Marshall Plan" for the PIIGS as it's a market. And they could use those bundles&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&amp;nbsp;of trash dollars they are holding.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Ours.... will be deeper and dirtier, as we have no bad guys to blame other than the faceless 1%.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And when your national product is actually foreign&amp;nbsp;wars to feed the rich, then who is their to blame?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;You can't blame the designated enemy the 'rag heads', as they have already mentioned the great Satan would&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;kill itself through internal debt.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Now if that isn't a story of the snake swallowing it's tail what is?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/917907928082076417-5849981124475940842?l=messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/feeds/5849981124475940842/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=917907928082076417&amp;postID=5849981124475940842' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/5849981124475940842'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/5849981124475940842'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/2011/11/getting-fugly-and-also-bring-your-own.html' title='Getting fugly and also..... bring your own chair'/><author><name>Larry</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12496812753716619946</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-917907928082076417.post-6980615061993141485</id><published>2011-11-01T09:00:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-11-03T10:30:04.183-07:00</updated><title type='text'>All better now</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://kunstler.com/blog/2011/10/nowhere-to-run-nowhere-to-hide.html"&gt;http://kunstler.com/blog/2011/10/nowhere-to-run-nowhere-to-hide.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;We'll maybe not.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;They all sat down&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;someone blinked and&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;they all shook hands.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;All better know.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;What they actually agreed to was... lets pertend,&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;and maybe it will go away.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Kunstler&amp;nbsp;is stating the CDS where a sham,&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;and now everyone knows this while saying: shush!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;All of this is very difficult for those who conclude that&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;numbers can take the place of emotions, as currently expressed&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;by mass hysteria.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;What does this bode for our collective future?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Their is a bottom.

And maybe this is a good&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;starting place. The more extensive info source is: Coconut Research Institute, and which is online. Their are a number of videos&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;at this site which might be of interest.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;If you are reluctant to take or use coconut oil "It's saturated", an alternative and which everyone will enjoy is fresh coconut milk which is&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;found in the cooler cases at markets.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;An 8 oz glass contains 5 grams of mid chain fatty acids (MCFA) and which is what we seem to be lacking.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Fresh coconut milk has endless applications in cooking and i find is very good with the rice cereal which&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;i can eat because of my cellaic condition which limits my options.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Though i also take coconut oil as well and everyday, i appreciate the fresh coconut oil source.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The other lactose alternatives are also better than milk products and especially soy products.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;If you read the serious criticism of soy and soy milk or oil you will have to consider if we where 'designed'&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;to ingest a bean oil which has such an effect on our hormone's for one significant area of concern.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Also, the Soy Association has an unlimited PR budget, and from which some of the funds are used to&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;discredit coconut and palm oil. We once had a large amount of coconut oil in our diet and that's until the Soy&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;industry started a negative campaign to discredit it's health benefits, by labeling it as a "greasy oil".&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;You will not gain weight if you take coconut oil or milk as the MCFA are not stored in the body if they are not needed.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;MCFA do not contribute to hypertension or LDL/HDL imbalance in fact they reverse those problems and also lower&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;blood pressure.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/917907928082076417-7546750750290307474?l=messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/feeds/7546750750290307474/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=917907928082076417&amp;postID=7546750750290307474' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/7546750750290307474'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/7546750750290307474'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/2011/10/what-fats.html' title='What fats?'/><author><name>Larry</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12496812753716619946</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-917907928082076417.post-8454129567690618655</id><published>2011-10-28T16:27:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-11-03T10:29:07.736-07:00</updated><title type='text'>cancer research</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.ted.com/talks/jay_bradner_open_source_cancer_research.html"&gt;http://www.ted.com/talks/jay_bradner_open_source_cancer_research.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;'Ted talks' can be abit over choreographed, and sometimes to the extent the&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&amp;nbsp;content is lost in the inflections of the 'preformer'.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;What am i saying?

padding: 0px;"&gt;A blog reader recently wrote me a fascinating (private) message. With his permission, I am posting parts of it (it's a long message, so I had to edit it a bit). This is a brilliant presentation of the bioavailability of curcumin with a few interesting suggestions on how to increase it:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;Biocurcumax is giving us curcumin that is predissolved in 10-15% oil by weight. Isn't that what I am doing by mixing curcumin with full fat yogurt: predissolving it before ingesting it? Could it be that those of us who predissolve in oil are already getting the benefit of the improved bioavailability that Biocurcumax wants to offer us?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;And why does the dissolution of curcumin in oil help the bioavailability? I believe it is because&lt;span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;the way the body digests fat is that it the chunks go through the stomach and then it becomes emulsified when bile is added to the initial end of the small intestine. Then those small droplets of oil, containing molecules of dissolved curcumin, are small enough to pass through the vilii of the small intestine into the network of lymph ducts that parallel all the network of blood veins, into which other molecules enter through the vein pores in the walls of the vessels (but the fat droplets don't).&lt;span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;Fats are not digested much in the stomach or the small intestine, but enter the lymph system, along with the enzyme lipase, which breaks down the fat globules and converts the fats into glycerol and fatty acids, both of which are soluble in water. So when the lymph is dumped back into the blood vein system up near the thorax, the fat has been changed into water soluble components. Presumably, the curcumin that was dissolved in the fat globules (dissolved means that it then existed in molecular form, not crystalline form), now remains attached to the fatty acids molecules or exists as free curcumin molecules in the blood to be carried throughout the body to find their home on some ugly little cancer cell in the bone marrow, where it frightens that cancer cell into committing hara-kiri, or your favorite word APOPTOSIS.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;So my theory is the Biocurcumax improves bioavailability by dissolving part of the curcumin in the oil, making easier for part of it to get into the blood stream through the lymph system. But I want to dissolve ALL of the curcumin in oil so that All of it gets into the blood stream through the lymph system. Maybe we already are there and don't know it because no one ever measured.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;Finally, I have two more brainstorm ideas to push on you. First, you must realize that curcumin will dissolve in alkaline aqueous solutions, but not acid solutions. The stomach is very acidic but the small intestine is very alkaline. First idea is to ferry the curcumin through the stomach, where a lot of it gets turned into curcumin glucorinide and curcumin sulfate, neither of which are bioactive, and into the small intestine by encapsulating the fine curcumin powder in an enteric coated capsule that can resist the stomach acids, but will dissolve in the alkaline environment of the small intestine, releasing its contents, which promptly dissolve in that environment and enter the vein system in molecular form. Some may still get lost through conjugation into glucorinide and sulfate, but more will at least get dissolved and able to enter the blood stream because it wasn't conjugated while in the stomach.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;Second idea is to dissolve the curcumin into some kind of fat (how about cocoa butter?) that is hard at room temperature, like chocolate, and form it into a capsule form, which gets swallowed whole. As it makes it way through the stomach it slowly melts and the fat breaks into droplets with the curcumin still dissolved in them. These droplets are then emulsified in the small intestine and go on their way into the lymph system to be digested by the lipase, as in the above description.&lt;span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;The main advantage of this approach is convenience.&lt;span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;Just pop a few delicious chocolate-flavored lozenges into your mouth and swallow them WHOLE, and your curcumin is on its way to lymph heaven.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="color: #222222; line-height: 18px; margin: 0px 0px 15px; padding: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;I particularly liked his second idea: chocolate, my favourite thing in the world, AND curcumin? I must do some experimenting. And why not mix curcumin with a ganache, i.e., warm cream with unsweetened dark chocolate? Ahhh, the possibilities are endless.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px 0px 15px; padding: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #990000;"&gt;My own thoughts from reading this and &amp;nbsp;coconut oil sites. Coconut oil being a &amp;nbsp;MCTF is internally processed differently than our other&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #222222;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #990000;"&gt;fat sources. So as a very practical suggestion as to how to achive maximum blood level curcumin might be to add both curcumin and coconut oil to a hot cerial and cook them together.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px 0px 15px; padding: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #990000;"&gt;This is a serious concern for Margaret and other melanoma people.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px 0px 15px; padding: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #990000;"&gt;For me and most everyone i correspond with the issue is general prevention.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px 0px 15px; padding: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #990000;"&gt;On Margaret's site and using the right reference search, their is a long discussion with references, if anyone is interested.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px 0px 15px; padding: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #990000;"&gt;Again, the only caution that i am aware of with regards to Tumeric or curcumin.

target="_blank"&gt;crisis-2011-is-here/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Some of us are attempting to follow this developing crisis and this article confirms the issue of food shortages is converging.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;It wasn't so long ago we where informed of the miracle of the Green Agriculture Revolution, which translates into petroleum energy&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;converted into grain production and especially rice in Asia.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And then this 'miracle' was combined with GMO grains and beans and world hunger was supposedly going to vanish.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;At least that's what i recall of the pitch made by the Rockefeller Institute when it was offered to the world as a significant technical advance in&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;food production.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And yes, Rockefeller does imply petroleum production and chemical manufacturing. And Chem plants frequently are adjacent to oil refineries.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;What this article doesn't mention is petroleum is what makes it possible for billions of people to continue to eat.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;A significant contraction in world oil production will open the door to famine, and we needn't even consider the other issues of concern which are being mentioned in the enclosed Lester Brown article. Brown is recently unusually accurate with regards to projections...in my opinion.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;This current situation confronts a more basic human problem which i would say is: Reality verses chosen belief systems.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And the one aspect of that which i personally find very disturbing is: 'this "our world' will continue'.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Or it's just a cycle and we will soon bottom and return to 'human progress'. And &amp;nbsp;which is: &amp;nbsp;This will pass, &amp;nbsp;version when referring to hard times.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The alternative to that just to keep the imaging simple, maybe we are equivalent to yeast growing in a Petri dish, and when we reach the margins&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;having eaten everything in between... we die.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So just for speculation if it is a Petri dish situation, is it responsible to the next generation of yeast too encourage them to just keep munching.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Are we preparing and training those coming up to survive in a differently reality or our hopeful belief construct?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I recognise the rebuttal to what i am asking may go along the line of: Is it right to share our 'speculative' fears with children?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I'm not, nor am i preparing and alternative future for coming generations.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;But i find it just too convent for people to make our situation today someway comparable to Jewish families in the forties in Europe, or even&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Native Americans in the eighteen and nineteen centuries who where well aware that their cultures, their futures where ending.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Tragic of course, &amp;nbsp;but small time and also selective, compared to what we are confronted with from the convergence of what's being described here.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;In a sense this is a continuance from a different projection of what Lerrie Keith, describes in the Vegetarian Myth.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Which describes our recently adopted choice of eating grains and stepping out of natures chosen diet.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Mono crops kill! and that's what i was trying to avoid for over thirty years, while i ate only plants.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Also, i think i am seeing a concerted effort to discredit what Keith is proposing.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Keith's view not only pushes our personal purity buttons, but it is surely not what grain producers want us to.... even.... consider.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;We are actually a corn and soy fed specie's if you haven't noticed, and neither is what our species ate until a few thousand years ago, when&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;it was decided feeding us in trough's so we could labor for the then current 1% would be efficient and ...rewarding.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/917907928082076417-8933948825796544916?l=messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/feeds/8933948825796544916/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=917907928082076417&amp;postID=8933948825796544916' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/8933948825796544916'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/8933948825796544916'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/2011/10/food-crisis.html' title='Food crisis'/><author><name>Larry</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12496812753716619946</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-917907928082076417.post-6072402390705257726</id><published>2011-10-14T20:23:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-10-18T08:57:27.456-07:00</updated><title type='text'>OWS</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/news/my-advice-to-the-occupy-wall-street-protesters-20111012"&gt;http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/news/my-advice-to-the-occupy-wall-street-protesters-20111012&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;A few words on directions with regards to demands by the protesters.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Yes, we know understand we we are the 99%.

And the subject concerns the reality of diminishing oil&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;derived energy for food production. And yes, it's somewhat suitable for the children, as it is a very beautiful pastoral setting.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I have followed this energy issue for some time. It is complex but also basic to our&amp;nbsp;survival.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And whether we choose amongst the various dietary options or just go with what is offered on the store shelves,&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;for all of us, food options will soon be ending.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;What does 'soon' mean? Tell me if you find out. And just for the can kicking participation, and considering when the oil energy society commenced, and that meaning significant oil production. And the supposed Bell Curve which must be very distorted&amp;nbsp;by recent exponential world population growth; how about a generation? And then that's followed&amp;nbsp;by more stumbling on the decent.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Conclusion: Predictions difficult but pattern apparent.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;This is hardly new information with regards to 'peak oil' or it's implications... world famine and die off.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;What we are also experiencing is lack of acknowledgment of this world crisis in both oil and food&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;production...and for the seven billion world population.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;We are not being confronted with a cyclical phenomena where the population experiences "Hard Times"&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;followed by a slow return to the former "Good Times".&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;What apparently will be our future is not a bell curve decline implying a even leg but predictable decent to an early nineteen thirties&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;starting point. That would be a nice fantasy of retracing our glorious ascent.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And as far as history goes it doesn't get any better than our recent belly stuffing, industrial world: Pig out!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The more recent projections (Demitri Orlov, 2011) are predicting a step down decline which is a sudden production/supply contraction followed by&amp;nbsp;a plateau and which will then be followed&amp;nbsp;by another sudden drop, and again the plateau scenario. This is not factoring in the economics or the worlds climate change implications.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Numerous authors have been describing what the peak oil projection implication will look like and for some time.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;But it's projections based on research and information we are not inclined to seek out. As an example who is interested&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;in how M. King Hubbert in 1956 determined US oil production would peak in 1971? And yes, it did peak and others then&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;attempted to apply the equation to world production and which is briefly referred to in this video.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;But we are collectively still assuming that the party will never end.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So are we of the mind set of the Lemming's who must say: Just shut up and keep swimming!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Well, it appears that way, but for those few willing to hear what's ahead, videos like this may be a&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;possible warning.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/917907928082076417-6732446058515101209?l=messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/feeds/6732446058515101209/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=917907928082076417&amp;postID=6732446058515101209' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/6732446058515101209'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/6732446058515101209'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/2011/10/video-worth-watching.html' title='video worth watching'/><author><name>Larry</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12496812753716619946</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-917907928082076417.post-8237517111136212088</id><published>2011-10-06T10:35:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-10-18T08:56:27.865-07:00</updated><title type='text'>listen up!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r3ptmm8lAMM"&gt;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r3ptmm8lAMM&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;This is what folks need to hear on Sunday Morning while sitting in the pews.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Unfortunatly, reality is never included in the thumpers sermons.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/917907928082076417-8237517111136212088?l=messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/feeds/8237517111136212088/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=917907928082076417&amp;postID=8237517111136212088' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/8237517111136212088'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/8237517111136212088'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/2011/10/listen-up.html' title='listen up!'/><author><name>Larry</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12496812753716619946</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-917907928082076417.post-7093816744727823431</id><published>2011-10-05T16:32:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-10-18T08:56:08.125-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Looking for a solution?</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.shtfplan.com/headline-news/greek-default-will-trigger-an-immediate-magnitude-10-earthquake_10032011" target="_blank"&gt;http://www.shtfplan.com/headline-news/greek-default-will-trigger-an-immediate-magnitude-10-earthquake_10032011&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Don't bother, as it is not productive.... in this present situation.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;What it seems we are experiencing is the train to... nowhere, is on the tracks. The train is in motion.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The train has a descending direction. and it seems to be going faster but to what destination?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Also, It seems we are both passengers and observers.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;But we are not the trains engineer&amp;nbsp;and who will remain nameless.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Then when the train stops.... it will not be at a 'designated' destination.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;As 'expansion' is not growth or a destination.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Some preparations are always possible even for the uneventful occurrence if&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;we still assume it is a.... possible.... event which could occur.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And what's that all saying.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Acceptance that history repeats, but time doesn't.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;We may best be served if we now move on to the next phase.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And which i think again is acceptance that the above description is in the moment accurate, and that&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;we don't have a parallel reality where we can choose to spend our near future.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So now we are 'ahead' of the other passengers, even if we also don't know our ultimate destination.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And what should an informed train passengers now do?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;First: Accept their is no place on the train to hide.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And that does not imply their is nothing we can do.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;But also don't bother to shout or pull the emergency cord.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Don't upset you fellow passengers with lurid stories of what's to come&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;That's just projection and speculation.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;This might also alert the train conductor that the somnolence potions&amp;nbsp;maybe wearing off&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;and the passengers need his personal attention, meaning you.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;When flag and cross are no longer effective distractions, hunger and fear&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;become paramount.

long&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;when the train stops.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And Dude, I consider that taking control of the lounge car, if not the train. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br

the indication that Germany is saying one thing while preparing for&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;another and even worse.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And that's if it's true they are now printing the former Deutsch mark in anticipation of a larger collapse of the EU than generally is&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;being considered.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;That would defiantly be leaving 'all of Europe' standing and racing for the few chairs available while the music plays on. And which&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;it seems maybe be a funeral dirge for the EURO as well as the EU.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Will this impinge on the 'God's Chosen Empire' where the nice people dwell?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&amp;nbsp;We'll, if you can consider any of this having credibility&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;it would be prudent to ponder that the land of.... not think! is going to get it between the eyes.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And not to go into the details but maybe describing it as a second flush of the toilet may give you some indication of&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;where we will be when Europe goes down the tube, The discussion going on in Europe and the ER will not happen with the possible future shredding of the Empire.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;We would go down ward... faster than Europe and for a number reason in my opinion. The first, this is financially one Nation.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Another is our feed the fire financiers have been China, Japan and middle east oil producers.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;It is very doubtful they would want to hold the Empires hand while the sky falls. It seem if this happens and happens&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;meaning European financial collapse and that followed by serious damage to the US financial structure. The others still standing will back away&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;and wait for the settling of the debris before going into do salvage work. That is not rescue response more like load the sacks and the carts with the booty.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Yes, it is getting ugly and this may change from what we are told when watching the 6 O'clock or listening to the happy gibberish on the business channels.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The advise from the prudent is go to cash and definitely don't consider buying anything while going down.... as a bargain to buy. As it will only be the begging of the contraction fall.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;For most folks funds in the bank is as good as cash! Don't count on it when experiencing crisis as this will not be a orderly collapse. That is the nature of collapse. The fruit falls off the tree at varying rates so try and be prudent because we have no friends on Wall Street, The Treasury or&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;the Federal Reserve. This will not be a period of expanding credit meaning loans for the people.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The banks are not even lending to each other, so why would they lend to us the walking scum?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And of course they will flood us with cheap money at some point but it will have even less value.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Food, fuel and cash will be necessities. Even your credit card may lock up at some point going into this.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Then some people are saying something to the effect: We soon will be coming back! We are not Europe! They won't let it happen!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I haven't actually heard or read this one... but I'm sure it's being said.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;We have friends and they will help us!

And usually combined with BHT.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Though i had been aware of the positive properties of BHT for some time from reading Mann and Fawkes paper in the late eighties.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;But now and within the last few months i have been investigating coconut oil for other health issues such as controlling cholesterol&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;and maybe to eliminate secondary disease for people with gluten intolerance or actually, Celaic Disease.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Recently i have been buying Coconut oil on line and giving it to my dog and myself and i have to conclude even though this has been just a couple of months&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;i believe i am feeling better and experiencing general improvement in my health.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;My dogs conclusion seems to be: More! and since we are talking science in the bowl here, i have to conclude she finds coconut oil beneficial and&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;satisfying as well..&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I noticed some of the sub site recommendations where for treating or preventing Dementia, &amp;nbsp;diabetes and also many of the gut problems that can be very serious and as well&amp;nbsp;Arthritis.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Coconut oil is usually available at health food stores and the dosage recommended here is up to three and half tablespoons x day.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Their is a red unrefined c. oil also available and which maybe more nutritious. Though i just settled for the organic expeller pressed from Tropical Traditions which is on line and ships from Nevada.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Oh yes, the down side is palm oil is now being distilled in to a biodiesel. So people who have been depending on this for cooking and that's probably billions of people are now paying allot more for coconut oil.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/917907928082076417-1640068183550264736?l=messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/feeds/1640068183550264736/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=917907928082076417&amp;postID=1640068183550264736' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/1640068183550264736'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/1640068183550264736'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/2011/10/on-cocount-oil-and-health.html' title='on cocount oil and health'/><author><name>Larry</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12496812753716619946</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-917907928082076417.post-7539717451953160291</id><published>2011-09-28T21:44:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-09-28T21:44:25.549-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Interesting interview with Doug Casey</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.caseyresearch.com/editorial.php?page=articles/doug-casey-answers-hard-questions-about-hard-times&amp;amp;ppref=GLD419ED0911C"&gt;http://www.caseyresearch.com/editorial.php?page=articles/doug-casey-answers-hard-questions-about-hard-times&amp;amp;ppref=GLD419ED0911C&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I usally dont listen to these interviews with market news letter writers but Casey does have some insight and in this&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;particular interview Casey is not walking the walk.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I feel his recommendations and conclusions are probably correct.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;When people begin to start recommending let it collapse and cut the big box government agencies such as the Pentagon and the CIA&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;by 90% we can be sure we are not far from going over the cliff.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/917907928082076417-7539717451953160291?l=messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/feeds/7539717451953160291/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=917907928082076417&amp;postID=7539717451953160291' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/7539717451953160291'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/7539717451953160291'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/2011/09/interesting-interview-with-doug-casey.html' title='Interesting interview with Doug Casey'/><author><name>Larry</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12496812753716619946</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-917907928082076417.post-6422907983586346524</id><published>2011-09-28T21:44:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-09-28T21:44:09.033-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Fwd: ISI?

We'll billions are still billions.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So someone had to step in with a better deal that they could live with and i would think&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Chinese money plus oil, plus essential equipment and the assurance that they had a ally in China&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;when dealing with India is allot of assurance that this is the time to change masters.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Pakistan may end up as a power in the region rather than land pirates as they now&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;are considered.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Whats in it for China? How about bye, bye US Empire in Asia?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And this would open allot of other avenues for China heading towards the middle east.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Then theirs all those countries ending in 'Stan' and most of them have oil and minerals.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;It looks tempting to me.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="gmail_quote"&gt;---------- Forwarded message ----------&lt;br /&gt;From: &lt;b class="gmail_sendername"&gt;larry&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span dir="ltr"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Date: Thu, Sep 22, 2011 at 7:42 PM&lt;br /&gt;Subject: ISI?

I don't think so!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I can recall a couple of incidents in recent history and one such as the strafing of the USS Liberty in 67 by the Israels.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;We just covered it up after the two Israel planes where driven off.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Casualties? was it 179 US sailors.? and it was no mistake of identity.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;What has worked with Pakistan in the past has been bribes by the US ...and in the billions.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;But i think Pakistan has it's own agenda with regards to Afghanistan and they just want the Empire out ASAP.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And we can be sure some discussion regarding the eviction of the Empire has taken place by other big players along with Pakistan.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Russia and China would probably be very logistically supportive of Pakistan as neither wants the US in Asia.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And I'm sure they would be more than supportive of Pakistan if it decides to be 'assertive' with the US.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Supportive might mean commodities such as oil and coal and industrial equipment. And these are all things the US doesn't have to give.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Pakistan has never been a US colony and their are few things Pakistan's wants or that they like about the 'Crusader Empire'.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So ISI being sloppy and giving operates cell phones to call them just doesn't sound like they didn't know who had what and where they where calling from.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I just don't think they care what the US knows or does as they see the US in the this area as history and they have the backing to know let the Pentagon and the CIA know it.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The Drones have been very effective but the Packy's don't like whats happening and they want total control and so they are upping the anty.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/917907928082076417-6422907983586346524?l=messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/feeds/6422907983586346524/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=917907928082076417&amp;postID=6422907983586346524' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/6422907983586346524'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/6422907983586346524'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/2011/09/fwd-isi-bad-isi-and-now-more.html' title='Fwd: ISI?

The top 5% has increased their wealth by 43%&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;in the same period.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Here in Oregon it is becoming ever more apparent where that sink hole is located.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;While traveling through the central (Willamette) valley i noticed all the towns now&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;have very trashy or run down trailer camps though they are called Mobile Home 'parks'.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;These are not the retired of Arizona or Florida with that 'bit extra' every month as the cushion.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;These are the growing numbers who probably once had jobs or some military time and now have run&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;the course of benefits and possibilities.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And they appear to be floundering, with the walk to the nearby 'convience' store the days&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;recreational outing between rain showers.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;In the California central valley their is the same situation. Lots of small trashvilles near ever town.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Then the out was to send the kids to the military and maybe dad mows lawns in town.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Always lots of flags and good ole boy slogans seemed to pervail.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;No more or not from what I'm seeing, as the flag is middle class and now they are in a trash class.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Of course, Oregon once had lumber mills in all these small towns and now they have less and less.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The larger towns i noticed&amp;nbsp;had the ticky tacky MH Parks as well,&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;but they also have the new corporate mall shopping area where the big boxes have been set down. Not a good long term&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;forecast for the no place to go towns.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;It feels like they have hooked up a cancer to the sides of these towns and it continues to feed while the towns continue to die.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Some people who i get mail from seem to equated the flag, corporations and of course the current belief system to the mercantile system.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I guess if we had a king or a warrior class ruling rather than the corporate bankers they would stand in line to lick their feet as well.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/917907928082076417-7303715648328153264?l=messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/feeds/7303715648328153264/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=917907928082076417&amp;postID=7303715648328153264' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/7303715648328153264'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/7303715648328153264'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/2011/09/fwd-con-game.html' title='Fwd: Con game?'/><author><name>Larry</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12496812753716619946</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-917907928082076417.post-6346748285517971429</id><published>2011-09-24T10:51:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-09-24T10:51:17.770-07:00</updated><title type='text'>ISI?

That's when it gets sticky and the discussion slips into that person of color&amp;nbsp;in the White House or&amp;nbsp;those tax cheats are running our country. Which actually is referring to welfare moms or some such.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So question is when the grand children are glowing from radiation which the old folks said was 'no problem' will these kids also see it&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&amp;nbsp;as: No problem?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;For a broader perspective their seems to be three recognised near future calamities which are frequently discussed by people who are concerned regarding our future:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The evident world economic collapse.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The evident world collapse of a cheap energy source which allows&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;industrial nations to continue at a high level of function for millions of the citizens.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And that's various forms of oil but primarily defined as crude oil.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And the last is really two prong. The world population at seven billion and soon going to nine.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And the human induced climate change.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And now what is again raised here on Fairwinds site is the nuclear radiation issue which will last for thousand of years.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And will easily be induced by US corporate built, managed and operated power generating plants around the world.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And in this case 35 reactors which are the identical design as the failed reactors at Fukishima.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Apparently our NRC is similar to that in Japan as they are both controlled by the corporations they are expected to regulate.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/917907928082076417-2486341498830047679?l=messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/feeds/2486341498830047679/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=917907928082076417&amp;postID=2486341498830047679' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/2486341498830047679'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/2486341498830047679'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/2011/09/important-new-video.html' title='Important new video'/><author><name>Larry</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12496812753716619946</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-917907928082076417.post-6742620321190814149</id><published>2011-09-19T14:27:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-09-19T14:27:50.716-07:00</updated><title type='text'>getting Greasy</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.hussmanfunds.com/wmc/wmc110919.htm"&gt;http://www.hussmanfunds.com/wmc/wmc110919.htm&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;For anyone interested in where it is going for Greece, the EU and also right here in Flag land. I think you will find this is really a good essay to consider.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;See the second chart of what happened with Argentina when they where being eviscerated and it is somewhat of an indication of what we will probably see happen with&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Greece's financial markets.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Hussman speculates the EU will kick the can down the ditch for awhile before they give it up.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Their will be some reevaluation as to who will remain in the money defined EU and then after the sorting&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;they will close the castle gates on the trash countries.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&amp;nbsp;PIIGS are not invited to the party as they come in on a platter.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And of course US&amp;nbsp;investment banks have been right in their offering their investors heads for slaughter, as they thought they would be making a easy buck&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;and be able to then run with &amp;nbsp;the loot. They have been hedging the EU loans is what it sounds like to me.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And it may turn out not even the US government is going to bail them for their foreign mistakes.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So will this be a third step down and into the financial muck? Like in bubble, bubble and gulp!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And will the peoples money such as pension funds be involved?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;We'll this article didn't state it, but these investment banks never use their own money.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Why should they when they can borrow at low or no interest from the Fed, or just use the funds coming in every month from the&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;retirement funds?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;If we stand back and look at this situation. For the hedge funds, it's just a game where they can write the game rules and then click the keys&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;while they play.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&amp;nbsp;And a basic premise for games is the team owners don't get hurt as that's what players are for to take the hits.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/917907928082076417-6742620321190814149?l=messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/feeds/6742620321190814149/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=917907928082076417&amp;postID=6742620321190814149' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/6742620321190814149'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/6742620321190814149'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/2011/09/getting-greasy.html' title='getting Greasy'/><author><name>Larry</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12496812753716619946</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-917907928082076417.post-6854849840007808796</id><published>2011-09-19T14:27:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-09-19T14:27:08.063-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Fresh for you</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.fastcompany.com/1779611/priming-whole-foods-derren-brown"&gt;http://www.fastcompany.com/1779611/priming-whole-foods-derren-brown&lt;/a&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Sometimes these things will happen and it seems best to just accept them when it does.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;For the past few days i have had a couple of recurring thoughts which where both worrisome and not easily resolved.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The story of Cassandra seemed to remind me that some of the issues we are now being confronted with can not be&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;easily shared with others. Because to present them they are implying doom in our collective future and the public doesn't want to hear or know of such information and thats even if there name is included in the invoice.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And the other reacquiring thought concerned the seventies significant book: The Limits of Growth, and which for me was disturbing at the time.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;But then today, i found this current (reprint) of an excellent article that had appeared a couple of years ago at the Energy Bulletin site.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And which puts both bothersome thoughts together.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So it's now more like 'mystery solved'. I had just not been listening as i had the information all along but had consciously forgotten&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;that i had read some of these articles when they originally appeared in 2008.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And whats changed since then? We'll, i concluded they are still chopping at Cassandra (see illustration) and of course even the later editions of: the Limits of Growth.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And it seems when you combine the Oligarchy, Fox Media and Jesus' .....on the spot spokesperson, and they are all in opposition to shouting out! &amp;nbsp;You gotta conclude someones listening&amp;nbsp;and they don't like what they are hearing.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So if you are still interested in what the self proclaimed 'master of the system; don't want you to know then read the enclosed article(s).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/917907928082076417-529942245687198799?l=messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/feeds/529942245687198799/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=917907928082076417&amp;postID=529942245687198799' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/529942245687198799'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/529942245687198799'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/2011/09/cassandras-curse-is-still-functioning.html' title='Cassandra&apos;s curse! is still functioning.'/><author><name>Larry</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12496812753716619946</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-917907928082076417.post-5437017493255125755</id><published>2011-09-19T14:25:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-09-19T14:25:28.668-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Ignorance is strenght</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yuC_4mGTs98"&gt;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yuC_4mGTs98&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/917907928082076417-5437017493255125755?l=messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/feeds/5437017493255125755/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=917907928082076417&amp;postID=5437017493255125755' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/5437017493255125755'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/5437017493255125755'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/2011/09/ignorance-is-strenght.html' title='Ignorance is strenght'/><author><name>Larry</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12496812753716619946</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-917907928082076417.post-3558703217300053839</id><published>2011-09-19T14:25:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-09-19T14:25:15.652-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Under a green sky.

This is considered to be very potentially dangerous to... all life.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Methane hydrate is defined as frozen methane and which is flammable and explosive.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And if that wasn't enough, methane also is 23 times more CO2 producing than just burning hydro carbons as we do with engine exhaust.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The magnitude of the fields of frozen methane are beyond our comprehension since this is not an area that can be easily investigated.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And then we also have the PH of the oceans changing from alkaline to acid. The oceans are an enormous CO2 sink both from continental runoff and atmospheric pollution.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Ocean life cannot sustain in a acid solution.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Actually, we give geographic ocean areas separate names but they are really all one ocean and with relatively the same solution levels.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And one of the few things that the movie&amp;nbsp;: The Day After Tomorrow,&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;probably got right was the ocean conveyor current which is very evident in the Atlantic is&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;temperature sensitive as the difference between the ocean water 'layers' generates a warm current and which&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;increases the ambient continental temperature of Europe and the British Ilse.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;If this temperature induced current is disrupted and actually it has been is the distant past, the land climates will again be seriously affected.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;When inland water from the Great Lakes in the past entered the North Atlantic ocean due to snow melt this&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;affected the conveyor current. And it's speculated the engine stopped, but then fortunately resumed. '&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The science journalist Elizabeth Kolbert, interviewed the 'field scientist' and she then described their conclusions in: Field Notes on a Catastrophe. published: 2006&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Gregory Benford, a science professor at UC Irvine has also written a number of award winning SciFi novels.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And as i recall one published in the early nineties describes a red tide in the 'Pacific' &amp;nbsp;ocean that expands and then takes on&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;a life of its own. The oceans chemistry apparently had become a growth solution for the algae bloom.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So Benford was describing what was suspected would be happening in the future.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;All of this comes under the heading of 'feed back loops'. Though not the primary cause nor the predictable result of some&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;significant triggered earth climate phenomena that could not be directly predicted.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And so happenings such as ocean temperature increases may trigger more frequent cyclones and hurricanes, and maybe experienced where neither had been experienced before.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;When senior independent scientist such as James Lovelock, conclude the surface species survival odds are limited. We should consider that it's possible these people who investigate the 'earth system sciences' may have justifiable reasons to reach these dismal conclusions.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Earth system science, is the term which is used when scientist are publishing papers on the Gaia theory.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I think it is correct that this was first formally proposed in 1972 by: James Lovelock.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And what it comes down to is the earth is self aware in the sense it continually is managing the earths surface conditions for it's optional well being.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The earth when experiencing that purpose maybe termed:&amp;nbsp;Gaia, and which was the name of the earth goddess which the Greeks had adopted.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The earths surface animals can experience a role in the earth balance, but are not considered a necessity for the earths well being.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Gaia is indifferent to those who dwell on the surface and is not inflicting punishment when it rebalances to its preferred steady state.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;We may reach the conclusion the earth is not here just for us and actually be able to justify that view point.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;As to spiritual interaction or spiritual awareness those living close to the earth seem far more likely to be suited to reach any spiritual conclusions.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Though i would offer that the Panspermia concepts which is defining cosmic originating seem to sustain.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;For those not familiar with Panspemia Cosmic Theory and it is obscure, if we consider this planet is floating through a sea of particles and which contain consciousness from the universe in general, then a seeding process is continually being experienced.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Terrance McKenna, (recently deceased) Rupert Sheldrake and Ralph Abraham maybe considered relatively current authors proposing versions of this general theory which includes Morphagentic Energy theory and Abraham's definitions and conclusions on chaos.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And i recognise this is long and rambling, but describing such dismal possibilities for the earths future, needs some balance and spirituality is probably the best option to consider.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/917907928082076417-3558703217300053839?l=messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/feeds/3558703217300053839/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=917907928082076417&amp;postID=3558703217300053839' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/3558703217300053839'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/3558703217300053839'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/2011/09/under-green-sky-peter-ward.html' title='Under a green sky.

And if it isn't extracted in that way it will appear as further cuts in&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;government subsidies entitlements.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So getting clear of the twin towers seemed safe at the time but then the residual problems became apparent.

Hey, i didn't say it made sense.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Agriculture work programs and maintaining infrastructure such as roads and buildings mentioned as job sources will become secondary.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Renewable agriculture will be where we are going as the petroleum based economy and a personal high energy society becomes unsustainable.&amp;nbsp;And apparently not because of Oregon planning or state leadership or any guidance from the economist quoted in this article.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Peak oil ( it's happened) will eventually create more than jobs, it will again create a labor intensive economy.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;This is easily explained but for those trying to just put 'it' back together&amp;nbsp;it doesn't seem to be comprehended even as a possibility.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I'm sure not implying we will like where we are going but it seems to be a given if we are talking positive issues.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Home construction is dead! Lets accept it!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;No jobs, no cheap energy or reliable loans. So who's going to build for those who can't buy?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;It was the last of the bubbles.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;We cant tie the load on a dead horse and expect to go anywhere.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So maybe people need to hear it again! Where we are headed and soon is a new frontier without plentiful energy at affordable rates.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;If the US military acknowledges this you would have thought the suits might have heard tell the buckets got a hole in it.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Maybe 'Think Britain in 1940' and which was... no imports of fuel or food,&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;It was grow it or starve.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;That just&amp;nbsp;might be a starting place at a dinner plate near you.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Some people may say: That was a war! Well, for people loosing everything and also not being offered reality&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;i believe they are seeing whats coming as a war on the people.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;People are not stupid! Stupid makes us more eligible for die off, so it's a last choice for most folks.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;But all of us expect the leaders to either show basic comprehension of reality&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;when they act or tell us what we maybe confronted with. And that doesn't seem to be happening.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The response that the public is left with when leadership is lacking is&amp;nbsp;rage and chaos.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;London couldn't happen in a civilised place like Portland, oh yeah!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I believe that is what the Londoner's where&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;saying as they watched the middle east followed by Greece and Italy go in to a fiery disorder!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Sixty percent of US crude oil comes from 'over there!'&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;When that stops because of the whale shit dollar and no foreign lenders for oil credit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;That's when the wheels quit turning as the lights go out.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And again as to oil. Their are a few other reasons it will soon be history. The expense of drilling at impossible sites and also the large fields&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;are becoming significantly less productive. All of the big fields are now old and pumping water as well as oil.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;We will eventually grow our own food and locally. &amp;nbsp;And for the energy needed in the crop fields it will be people physically working.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;This country has never experienced mass hunger or famine. But a few days without oil based energy and nothing turns, and no food gets to the table.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Doomer? No, just reality! Kicking the can down the road requires players who agree it is a game such as the 'economist' quoted here.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;People may riot when they are angry because of lack of honesty from the leaders. Yes, frustration is pent up anger and collectively it becomes mob anger. And not just because the&amp;nbsp;pots empty.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;When people are told it's going to get better and it doesn't happens or.... it gets worse. Then&amp;nbsp;they find themselves still out on the plank. That's not good for the suits, as someone was probably lying. and then the fires start and the heat spreads.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;People may not have the answers needed and they may recognise the guy in the suit is clueless. But he better not be lying unless he wants to check the view from a rope over a tree limb.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;A State Central bank is a given, if we are going to control credit locally.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;B of A is organised crime!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And as well, tax the.... rich corporations... to make things happen.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;When the troops are finally returned from the corporate sponsored wars...and that's if they actually bother to bring them back&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;from the 800 o/s bases, the reshuffling will begin.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Those Dudes will prompt a reality termed: Local armed chaos.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;"Wheres my job, house, and life?" And this is not 1973, when 'good vets' got a job or went back to school to ACTUALLY obtain work.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So any work programs will seem like the easy out for government as these Vets have been trained to take... as well as kill.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;From my perspective the actual Doomers are those people who want to repeat what is or has failed.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And who also don't want to consider workable alternatives that meet the..... necessities..... of the people.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/917907928082076417-8151628902829904707?l=messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/feeds/8151628902829904707/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=917907928082076417&amp;postID=8151628902829904707' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/8151628902829904707'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/8151628902829904707'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/2011/09/oregon-econ-experts-opinons-on-possible.html' title='Oregon econ experts opinons on the possible recovery of the state economy.'/><author><name>Larry</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12496812753716619946</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-917907928082076417.post-5071211350181493637</id><published>2011-09-07T14:15:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-09-11T13:24:53.052-07:00</updated><title type='text'>consider Sharon Astyk's conclusions.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://scienceblogs.com/casaubonsbook/2010/07/energy_as_a_lens_to_view_the_w.php"&gt;http://scienceblogs.com/casaubonsbook/2010/07/energy_as_a_lens_to_view_the_w.php&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;This is not current ( i have seen this before) but it needs to be repeated for those who are puzzled by peoples continued lack of concern or response,&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;and that's with regards to what is ahead and for all of us.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;What those waiting consider we will collectively be confronting is not something any of the usual emotional buffers&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;will dampen.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Keeping busy is best as a body and mind distraction and which justifies just about any trivia, though usually described as 'work'.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Another regular is: &amp;nbsp;"I don't want to know!"

And unfortunately, it is not furnished with rest stops even for the reluctant travelers.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I will not bother to describe the various Apocalypse and belief drivel folks tell themselves, as any subject with these folks may get a bible thumper's glib retort.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/917907928082076417-5071211350181493637?l=messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/feeds/5071211350181493637/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=917907928082076417&amp;postID=5071211350181493637' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/5071211350181493637'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/5071211350181493637'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/2011/09/consider-sharon-astyks-conclusions.html' title='consider Sharon Astyk&apos;s conclusions.'/><author><name>Larry</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12496812753716619946</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-917907928082076417.post-1508439477240193461</id><published>2011-09-07T13:25:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-09-11T13:25:59.383-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Fwd: Freddies, etc. WELL!</title><content type='html'>&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="gmail_quote"&gt;---------- Forwarded message ----------&lt;br /&gt;From: &lt;b class="gmail_sendername"&gt;James&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span dir="ltr"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Date: Tue, Sep 6, 2011 at 4:58 PM&lt;br /&gt;Subject: Freddies, etc.  WELL!&lt;br /&gt;To: larry&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div dir="ltr"&gt;Nice to see you.

And this is one of the more honest though&amp;nbsp;acknowledged powerless positions. It becomes a..... general response, as the person just shuts down to... pleasure without pain.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Another favorite and which is not really ever voiced completely involves the 'childern'. If i don't look it may just go away, and besides looking involves looking at my own fear and I'm just holding on as it is!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Allot of prayer and rules usually clusters with this one, as it need constant reinforcement.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;My own position and i do state it frequently that this is NOT just collapse of the current macro empire or even system.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;System meaning: Economics, and which seems is a characteristic of someones once brilliant fantasy projection.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;For many people we are entering collapse of society induced by population, energy factors and climate change. The rest may be described&amp;nbsp;as secondary.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Also. we may want to consider their are no classic Vandals at the gates, and waiting with cargo trucks to haul the booty back home. As the Vandals though apparent may have even less of a future than the former: Residents of the Horn of Plenty.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And it seems we are just know touching the edge of this somewhat undefinable feed back loop induced chaos state.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;As D.&amp;nbsp;Orlov recently stated: &amp;nbsp;The peak oil bell curve, is a..... graphic..... myth.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;As yes, It was apparently a smooth classic assent until 2005 and then the production plateau and which we are now leaving. The decline and response will be very unpleasant, choppy and even undefinable until it has been experienced.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Alan Weisman's book: A World Without Us, may be one of the better descriptive essay's regarding our species demise. Though he describes the earth going on and supporting other life forms. Meaning once we leave.... the other species destruction ends and the healing begins. And though the song birds and the snakes will hardly miss us if this is the way it will go.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I think the surface cleansing by the earth will not be that selective as vengeance is not involved. Just earth stability and the balance of the earths&amp;nbsp;elements.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;What i am wondering, Is our species incapable of recognising and responding to it's own annihilation?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Though extinction maybe the better choice to describe our limited future and based on our dream like narrow&amp;nbsp;awareness.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And the reason i raise this issue is their are numerous discussions, books, sites and response proposals by the involved people who we&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;can name. &amp;nbsp;But the numbers involved are few who take it to the point that the current responses offered will not be effective.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Usually what happens in a major crisis of any sort the general public begins to respond and this may even be counter productive or misguided but&amp;nbsp;even conscious turning away from a crisis is a statement of some sort.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The vacuum created by the lack of general discussion or emotional involvement is what i find disturbing. This is where the self defined demigods&amp;nbsp;step forward to give people 'direction' while collecting power and money.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;At times what i am hearing from people is: I'm waiting for...................blank, or then it drifts into certified delusional with Apocalypse or someones calender&amp;nbsp;projections.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;As i recall the Jews just wore the second coming to a frazzle and that's until someone else decided they could package the idea and start a new religion.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And of course offering much more than a chosen people concept waiting to meet YAHWEH on his return circuit through the cosmic ether.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And besides with regards to the 'new improved' sky god spin off:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;What's better than having a luxury suburban skin color and sex preference Club Med, and Dang, just out of reach behind the clouds? But sure to be delivered if we will just say: Hey, count me in, or some such simple pledge of allegiance, of course while eating flesh and drinking blood and ogling the naked guy on the stick being tortured.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;It's a very old plot but it seems still fills the theaters.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/917907928082076417-970749971914243419?l=messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/feeds/970749971914243419/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=917907928082076417&amp;postID=970749971914243419' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/970749971914243419'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/970749971914243419'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/2011/09/please-ponder-this.html' title='Please ponder this!'/><author><name>Larry</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12496812753716619946</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-917907928082076417.post-756061160644405363</id><published>2011-09-02T16:30:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-09-11T13:23:16.448-07:00</updated><title type='text'>A hit up side the head</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/25-signs-that-the-financial-world-is-about-to-hit-the-big-red-panic-button"&gt;http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/25-signs-that-the-financial-world-is-about-to-hit-the-big-red-panic-button&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;hurts!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;But, it seems the alternative to a wake up call maybe a kick in the solar plexus.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And yes, I know and many times over."Oh, Larry don't be so negative.

And for a few i will sometimes respond with a question: What are you seeing in the state of the national or even the international economy that is encouraging or indicating this is just a dip or even a double dip&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I have been told that when we get rid of that godless communist negro in the white house every thing will be fine.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;what can you say to that?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Of course, if you are already down there with the whales composting facillity you may not feel much pain.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;But few folks see themselves at this point in that down and dirty status.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;My last msg and which i didn't send to many folks was a few suggestions on how to prepare for what's to come.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And it really came down to: Scrunch down from where ever you maybe today.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Even down on the bottom has possibilities if you understand where you are.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And to each his own when determining how to weather a storm that may not end for sometime.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And i say that because contraction feeds contraction.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;But even if you continue with: It will be alright and besides, I'm quicker and maybe even smarter... so their!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Consider that even the best and most optimistic gamblers always hold back some chips for side bets.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/917907928082076417-756061160644405363?l=messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/feeds/756061160644405363/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=917907928082076417&amp;postID=756061160644405363' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/756061160644405363'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/917907928082076417/posts/default/756061160644405363'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://messagesfromlarry.blogspot.com/2011/09/hit-up-side-head.html' title='A hit up side the head'/><author><name>Larry</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12496812753716619946</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-917907928082076417.post-1974982617411226751</id><published>2011-09-01T11:29:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-09-11T13:23:00.040-07:00</updated><title type='text'>curcumin.....M.D. Anderson cancer clinic</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.pdazzler.com/wp-content/pdf/curcumin-absorption.pdf"&gt;http://www.pdazzler.com/wp-content/pdf/curcumin-absorption.pdf&lt;/a&gt;
