Speed of Light Earth Schumann resonance=7.5 Hertz ELF "negative resonance" precognition Psi-Plasma

 I don't recall Dr. Andrija Puharich making the connection to the Speed of Light resonance around Earth also being the same as the Schumann Resonance ELF wave? Both are 7.5 Hertz. Puharich certainly argues the Earth's Schumann ELF resonance is a "negative resonance" due to the virtual photons of the magnetic moment between the electron and proton of organic life molecules activated by the vagus nerve relaxation potassium serotonin connection. Stuart Hameroff and Roger Penrose's microtubule research corroborates this ultrasound connection that Puharich emphasized was key to splitting water, thereby resonating the vagus nerve potassium ELF via the virtual photons. 

Now as per the Law of Phase Harmony, relativity can not be ignored and thus the fact that the speed of light Earth resonance is aligned with the Schumann resonance fits in with "Light is Heavy" (article of Gerard 't Hooft) - the argument that the 1/2 spin of matter is due to this inherent virtual photon "negative resonance" precognition of mass with all matter actually being light.

Corporations, as "legal persons" have more rights than "natural persons"

Mobil Oil, now part of ExxonMobil, helped pioneer the idea of corporations as citizen-like entities with free speech rights in an effort to revive their reputation back in the 1970s. Exxon and Mobil backed other corporations First Amendment lawsuits, arguing that companies should be free to express their views on “matters of public concern,” including climate change. In Supreme Court cases like First National Bank v. Bellotti and Citizens United v. FEC, the idea of corporate free speech was expanded to usher in nearly unlimited corporate money in politics.

Balzac cranked out excellent novels, 13.5 hrs a day, then croaked at 51 yrs old after he drank 5 cups of coffee a day

 http://airshipdaily.com/blog/01282014-balzac-coffee

The Pleasure and Pains of Coffee,” he warns coffee-drinkers of the beverage’s near-fatal potential by relating his own experience:

… you will fall into horrible sweats, suffer feebleness of the nerves, and undergo episodes of severe drowsiness. I don't know what would happen if you kept at it then: a sensible nature counseled me to stop at this point, seeing that immediate death was not otherwise my fate.

 I go to bed at six or seven in the evening, like the chickens; I’m waked at one o’clock in the morning, and I work until eight; at eight I sleep again for an hour and a half; then I take a little something, a cup of black coffee, and go back into my harness until four. I receive guests, I take a bath, and I go out, and after dinner I go to bed. I’ll have to lead this life for some months, not to let myself be snowed under by my debts.

So he sleeps from 7 pm till 1 am or six hours of sleep and then sleeps after work for another 1.5 hours so 7.5 hours of sleep.... not too bad of a schedule but he was relying on caffeine to produce a hyper-alert waking state for his writing. Very fascinating. For his second shift of work....

 9:30 A.M. to 4 P.M. (Mind you, he only mentions drinking “a” cup of coffee.)

 he’d still have to down a cup of coffee every 16 minutes. Even if he drank them three at at time (which he recommends only for those of “particularly vigorous constitutions”), he would still have to take a coffee break every 48 minutes!

 so 6.5 hours of work during the day and 7 hours of work during the night for a 13.5 hour work shift per 24 hours  - 7.5 hours of sleep leaves only 3 hours of free time a day for eating/socializing. Wow.

 you get roughly four to five cups a day — a figure notably similar to how much Balzac describes one of his characters drinking in his story “Venetian Nights.”

 Balzac often had a pot simmering away (contrary to current advice) while he was writing, which was most of the time. And since he wrote like a machine, it's unlikely that he wasted much time pouring and drinking. At one point, though, when he was suffering stomach cramps, he claimed to be drinking only three cups of black coffee a day. This might be taken as the minimum.

 

 

Arctic Ice volume loss averages: we lost over 35% of arctic ice volume since year 2000

 proving that yes, as a matter of fact, we lost over 35% of that Sweet Millennial ice.

posted by "Going South" - a researcher in Greenland 

16% loss/decade, or 3100 km³ from the COP20 (Lima) base of 19,500 km³ reading from the 30-yr avg graph …

Arctic sea ice this week at 5.3 k km³. This week saw daily sea ice volume at 5.3 & its 30-year average at 16.3. This was also an All-Time Low for the latter. The annual average is approaching 12,900 km³. Odds are, COP 30 in the Amazon this November will change absolutely nothing.


 

Latest projections estimate the minimum at around 3,897 km³, making it the 2nd lowest after 2012's 3,673 km³. The 2025 annual mean could still drop below 2017's record low of 12,800 km³, 

 


so 53% loss of arctic ice volume since 1979.... or 25,400 kilometers cubed to 13,600

What doesn't get mentioned in the media is there's 1200 gigatons of pressurized methane in the world's largest ocean shelf - the subsea permafrost of the East Siberian Arctic Shelf! 

 The taliks have melted down to that permafrost for 50 gigatons being triggered already - soon to be released as an "abrupt eruption" that will soon double atmospheric temps within the decade (could happen any day though). The arctic ice is melting from below due to the 500 extra Zetta joules of heat in the ocean (hence the hurricane in Jamaica being so much more powerful due to ocean heat).

The Poor were blamed for the Great Depression (shud I be surprised?) and thus fascism rose up....

Republican leaders blamed poor Americans for the Great Depression, saying they drained the economy because they refused to work hard enough. “Liquidate labor, liquidate stocks, liquidate the farmers, liquidate real estate,” Treasury Secretary's Mellon told Hoover. “It will purge the rottenness out of the system. High costs of living and high living will come down. People will work harder, live a more moral life. Values will be adjusted, and enterprising people will pick up the wrecks from less competent people.”

But the problem was not poor workers. The rising standards of living that had gotten so much attention in the new magazines of the 1920s mainly benefited white, middle-class, urban Americans. Farm prices crashed after WWI, leaving rural Americans falling behind, while workers’ wages did not rise along with production. The new economy of the 1920s benefited too few Americans to be sustainable.

Hoover tried to reverse the economic slide by cutting taxes and reassuring Americans that “the fundamental business of the country…is on a sound and prosperous basis.” But he rejected public works programs to provide jobs, saying that such projects were a “soak the rich” scheme that would “enslave” taxpayers, and called instead for private charity.

 Wow - some things never change! 

By 1932, Americans were ready to try a new approach. They turned to New York Governor Franklin Delano Roosevelt, who promised to use the federal government to provide jobs and a safety net to enable Americans to weather hard times. He promised the American people a “New Deal”: a government that would work for everyone, not just for the wealthy and well connected.

Under Roosevelt, Democrats protected workers’ rights, provided government jobs, regulated business and banking, and began to chip away at racial segregation. New Deal agencies employed more than 8.5 million people, built more than 650,000 miles of highways, built or repaired more than 120,000 bridges, and put up more than 125,000 buildings.

They regulated banking and the stock market and gave workers the right to bargain collectively. They established minimum wages and maximum hours for work. They provided a basic social safety net and regulated food and drug safety. And when World War II broke out, the new system enabled the United States to defend democracy successfully against fascists both at home—where by 1939 they had grown strong enough to turn out almost 20,000 people to a rally at Madison Square Garden—and abroad.

Cocoa Tryptamine induced dream visions

 If I take four heaping spoonfuls of cocoa at night then I calculated it is enough tryptamine to trigger psychedelic visions. Sure enough my thoughts during the previous day - any thought that had an extra emotional intensity of intention to it - triggered a vast panorama story created by my subconscious as an epic dream vision. It would take too much effort to try to translate these epic dramas as visions into words - it stuns the mind to realize what the spirit can induce. Our biophoton spirit mind is much greater and more powerful in its profound depth of insight and it's directly connected to our subconscious emotional intention. The tryptamine induced visions are thus a byproduct of our previous emotional subconscious intentions - what is called the "yin qi" in Daoism and then combines with the "yang qi" via sublimated celibacy as stored up cerebrospinal lecithin myelinated charge.

Baron Hamilton of Boo Castle, Sweden, invited my Dresden great, great, great, great grandfather to be a sheep farmer

 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hugo_Hamilton,_Baron_Hamilton

Baron H. Hamilton invited him [John Paul Hempel, born in 1803, son of Johan Paul Hempel who disappeared (murdered) in 1806], to become the sheep man on the Baron's estate in Boo in Narke, Sweden. He arrived in March, 1835 with wife and three sons. The raising of sheep had not been successful on Boo. The baron was not at home when Hempel arrived, but the new sheep man immediately realized that the reason for the failure depended on damage to the feed because of air ducts from the sheep sheds through the feed on the hay loft.  He immediately started to remove the air conduits. 

Wow fascinating family history that I just found in my dad's file box.... So Hempel from Dresden got in trouble with the old employees as they could not understand each other and they did not like what he was doing. But eventually the Baron returned to keep the peace.....

For some time the Baron had to spend much time in the sheep sheds and in the sheep herders house in order to help both parties. However, gradually everything turned out all right.

 So who was this Baron? He must have known German besides Swedish!

 

  first equerry?

 an officer of honour. Historically, it was a senior attendant with responsibilities for the horses of a person of rank. 

 

 So Boo is the town name...The province of Närke has a rich cultural heritage and covers a range of places to visit...Maria, Duchess of Sudermania

 https://www.st-andrews.ac.uk/history/ssne/item.php?id=4950

HAMILTON
First name
HUGH JOHN, HUGO JOHAN
Title/rank
BARON HAMILTON AF BOO and/or HAGEBY

 He married in 1699 to Eva Catherina Falkenberg and later Anna Fleming of Luberlitz (1682-1758), Lady in Waiting to the Queen of Sweden. With her he had several children. The role is a personal service within the royal court,

https://booegendom.se/en/our-history/about-us/ 

 In 1721, Anna Flemming married one of the generals of the Swedish King Charles XII, the baron and later on field marshal Hugo Johan Hamilton af Hageby. In the year 1725, he bought out his brother-in-law, and in 1735 he founded the Boo Fideikommiss (Boo fee tail) together with his wife.  Boo has remained a fee tail within the baronial family Hamilton af Hageby ever since. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fee_tail

In the Swedish legal context, a "fee tail" is called a
fideikommiss, meaning a property is inherited by a specific line of descendants and cannot be sold or given away by the owner. The owner can use the property and its profits but cannot dispose of the capital without permission from a board, as the estate must be passed down intact. While abolished in 1963, some estates have an exemption and still function under the old rule

  one of Sweden’s largest privately owned estates.

 https://booegendom.se/en/our-history/about-us/

 https://www.spottinghistory.com/view/1731/boo-castle/

 

 Wow Boo Castle!

 

 Still a private residence! Holy smokes.

In the British peerage, the ranks from highest to lowest are: duke, marquess, earl, viscount, and baron.

 https://gw.geneanet.org/kajholm?n=hamilton+af+hageby&oc=&p=hugo+adolf&type=fiche

 

  • Born October 2, 1802 (Saturday) - Boo Slott, Örebro län, Sverige
  • Baptized October 4, 1802 (Monday) - Bo, Örebro, Sverige
  • Deceased June 5, 1871 (Monday) - Boo Slott, Örebro län, Sverige, aged 68 years old
  • Generalpostdirektör, Överpostdirektör friherre

 OK he had a Doctorate in Philosophy by 1820 - so he must have learned German then....

 In 1674 the regiment, with the
Scots battalion of Hamilton, served with Turenne's army
on the Rhine, and in June was encamped at Philipsburg in
Western Germany, with the brigade of Brigadier- General
the Marquis of Douglas. 

 In 1723, Salmon, in his Chronology, notes the death at
Stockholm of "Hugo Hamilton Esq., of Scotland, general
of artillery to the King of Sweden." He was in his 70th
year, and had entered the service as a lieutenant.

In the Seven Years' War great progress was made in
1758 by the Swedish army in Pomerania, under the com-
mand of Count Hamilton, who recovered, by force of arms,,
all Swedish Pomerania, and even made hot incursions into
the Prussian territories  

 The fate of Swedish Pomerania was settled during the Congress of Vienna through the treaties between Prussia and Denmark on 4 June and with Sweden on 7 June 1815. In this manoeuvre Prussia gained Swedish Pomerania in exchange for Saxe-Lauenburg, becoming Danish, with Prussia having bartered previously Hanoverian Saxe-Lauenburg only 14 years earlier in exchange for East Frisia ceded to Hanover again

 So lately as 1857 we find Count Hamilton, marshal of
the kingdom of Sweden, and president ex-officio of the
Assemblies of the Four Orders.

 . Another interpretation could be the four Royal Orders of Chivalry: the Seraphim, Sword, Polar Star, and Vasa

 Order of the Polar Star: Historically awarded to civil servants and clergy.

 Sheep farmer Hempel could carry a barrel of salt up a hill and into the shed.

A barrel of salt weighs approximately
280 pounds

 Wow!!

 He trained his boys in discus throwing and sprinting...

The sons then also went into sheep farming on other farms.

Trump’s catalog of constitutional crimes: Long and getting longer

 https://peoplesworld.org/article/trumps-catalog-of-constitutional-crimes-long-and-getting-longer/

People are resisting but overall things are getting worse not better.....

  • Challenging the right of anyone of color to be a U.S. citizen, despite the clear, blunt language of the U.S. Constitution’s 14th Amendment. It says “all persons born or naturalized in the U.S. and subject to the jurisdiction thereof are citizens of the United States and of the states wherein their reside.”  

Trump lost a “birthright citizenship” challenge in the lower courts. His administration appealed it to the Supreme Court and a ruling is expected by late June or early July.

 2) Using the Alien Enemies Act of 1789 to have ICE agents summarily remove and deport people—alleged Venezuelan gang members—without due process of law, as the Constitution’s 5th Amendment guarantees.

 A Trump-named U.S. District Judge in South Texas ruled against one AEA removal Trump ordered. The Ronald Reagan-named judge says that law can only be invoked in times of “declared war or invasion or predatory incursion.”

  • Millions of privacy violations, all to both gather information on individual Americans while also opening them up to the private greed of former Trump partner Elon Musk, then head of Trump-named “Department of Government Efficiency” teams. 

DOGE computer nerds seized sensitive confidential financial information about individuals from the IRS, medical information from the Department of Health and Human Services, and data about labor law cases from the Labor Department, among others.

That’s unconstitutional. The 4th Amendment specifies a right to privacy: “The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures shall not be violated” except when there’s “probable cause” backed by sworn search warrants. DOGE, of course, had neither.

4)  Punishing political enemies, including law firms and universities. Trump punished the law firms for defending his opponents by restricting their rights to practice in front of the government and threatening to cut off their clients. 

  Kirkland & Ellis, a Chicago-based firm that provided partner Albert Jenner, a key House Judiciary Committee counsel during Richard Nixon’s impeachment, didn’t cave. It beat Trump.

  • Executive orders yanking business from the law firms and threatening clients also “appear to be unconstitutional and in violation of multiple sections of the Bill of Rights,” CAP said.

One federal judge called such “using the powers of the federal government to target lawyers for their representation of clients and avowed progressive employment policies in an overt attempt to suppress and punish certain viewpoints contrary to the Constitution.” That violated the constitutional protections for freedom of speech, equal protection of the laws, due process, and the right to counsel.

 6) Trump also pursues vendettas against leading universities, which he alleges aren’t cracking down on—and violating the free speech rights of—peaceful pro-Palestinian protesters. His actions feature yanking all the federal research grants they get, and, in Harvard’s case, actually trying to ban it from accepting foreign students. Harvard hasn’t caved—yet. Columbia has.

 Breaking the Constitution’s “speech and debate clause” protecting lawmakers from being sued for whatever they say in Congress. Ed Martin, Trump’s controversial interim U.S. Attorney for D.C. “sent letters to Democratic members of Congress and senators purporting to investigate their public political speech as criminal threats.” Martin became too hot for even Trump to handle. He asked Trump to withdraw his nomination. 

 In another constitutional violation Martin warned top law schools “to end diversity, equity, and inclusion programs or their graduates would be blacklisted from Justice Department jobs.”

Trump cites two Supreme Court rulings, overturning affirmative action in college admissions at Harvard and the University of North Carolina, as justification for banning DEI programs government-wide, including in firms and universities that receive federal grants and money.

Trump’s Education Department—or what’s left of it—sent word to school districts nationwide to shut their DEI programs or face the loss of federal Title I student aid to schools with high shares of poor kids.

Prohibits free speech restrictions

“The First Amendment prohibits the government from mandating a speech code and prohibiting free association for the public,” one progressive legal analysis says. “The 5th Amendment prohibits the government from punishing people and privately held organizations without due process of law.”

  • Using tariffs as a bargaining bludgeon against enemies and allies alike, while claiming, with little evidence, that his high tariffs, especially against China, will bring factory jobs back to the U.S. Several unions agree with him. The AFL-CIO is more dubious, saying high tariffs can be used to help counter—and stop-foreign trade cheating. The Manhattan-based U.S. Court of International Trade had no doubt at all. The Constitution gives Congress, not the president, “the power to lay and collect tariffs,” it declared—in a lawsuit brought by right-wingers: The Koch Brothers and the Federalist Society.  
  •  
    he New Civil Liberties Alliance (NCLA), a group associated with Leonard Leo (a co-chairman of the Federalist Society) and funded by Charles Koch's network, sued to challenge the tariffs on China
    . A separate group, the Liberty Justice Center, with past ties to a Koch-affiliated donor, also filed a lawsuit. These legal challenges argue that President Trump overstepped his constitutional authority by imposing tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, which they say is not intended for tariffs...
  •  
  • Withholding money Congress appropriated. Nixon tried this, too, and Congress struck back in 1973 with the anti-Impoundment Act. Trump’s doing it now, say the top Democrats on congressional appropriations committees, which actually help dole out federal funds. 

“The Trump Administration is breaking the law and undermining the Constitution every day by illegally stealing funds for the programs that help American families and businesses, firing career civil servants without cause, and dismantling agencies created by acts of Congress,” says one of the two, Rep. Rosa DeLauro, D-Conn.

“If presidents can decide when to spend and not spend all on their own, then Congress becomes little more than an advisory body to a monarch. Certainly that’s what the framers thought,” the Brennan Center for Law and Justice adds.

  • “The Trump-appointed acting director of the Office of Management and Budget ordered a government-wide impoundment of trillions of dollars that Congress,” the Brennan Center adds. That would end, OMB said, “after it reviewed whether agency activities implicate policies the president opposes, specifically citing ‘DEI, woke gender ideology, and the green new deal.’ It created immediate chaos” and lower court wins against Trump.

“In the words of one court, the budget office’s order ‘fundamentally undermines the distinct constitutional roles of each branch of our government,” especially Congress’s power of the purse,” the Brennan Center said.

“speed in time” (which is an unquantifiable concept) - aka "rate of passage" as the inherent problem of Relativity: space-time is "amount of time."

 You’ never see ‘your’ time slow down. ‘You’ always see things as if ‘you’ are at rest. Other things are always moving relative to (stationary) ‘you’....I meant from the POV of an observer, who was overseeing both events simultaneously. They'd see light in both frames (of reference) travel at c, and the events in each frame would be observed to pass more slowly than if observing a,stationary frame.

 https://www.quora.com/If-you-are-travelling-at-nearly-the-speed-of-light-how-fast-is-light-travelling-away-from-you

yes this is very much how “you” is defined as an “external observation.” Louis de Broglie’s Law of Phase Harmony was a critique of relativity from the perspective of quantum physics. de Broglie called the Law of Phase Harmony his “greatest discovery” and he has a Nobel Prize yet his “Law of Phase Harmony” is not taught in physics classes! Why? Well Bell’s Inequality that got the Nobel Prize and disproved Einstein is still misunderstood by other Nobel Prize physicists as Professor Jean Bricmont has detailed so well. Quantum physics professor Basil J. Hiley who had collaborated with David Bohm, who confirmed the Law of Phase Harmony, tried to explain to Nobel physicist Roger Penrose that indeed it is noncommutativity as nonlocality that is the secret of the foundation of reality in quantum biology. I have a paper on this secret - it’s based on listening as logical inference - NOT an external visual observation as the definition of the I or Self. see the academic journal “Cosmos and History” - peer-reviewed, open access Dec. 2024 issue for “noncommutativity music as biophysics” article. You can also read Nobel physicist Gerard ’t Hooft’s article “Light is Heavy” for a good start.

 If two objects in inertial frames are moving in relation to one another and yet both measure light as traveling at the same speed, that means that the relative movement of one MUST be causing distortions in space and time (the components of speed) in the frame of the other. At the speed of light, those distortions are so great that space is contracted to 0 and time dilated to infinity. Something moving at the speed of light carries the most possible distortion it can create in the observer's frame while still having a meaningful existence.

 https://www.quora.com/Whats-the-fundamental-reason-why-the-speed-of-light-cannot-be-broken-Why-does-the-universe-want-to-preserve-the-upper-barrier-on-speed-of-light-so-much-so-that-it-readily-slows-down-time-rather-than-see-the-speed-barrier-broken

 light is just one example of something that moves at this speed, and the reason it does is because it has no mass. Gravity also moves at the same speed. Anything with no mass must move at the special speed in the eyes of any observer.

https://www.quora.com/What-makes-the-speed-of-light-unique-in-terms-of-measurement-in-space-and-time-Are-there-other-methods-of-measuring-these-concepts 

AI: 

Noncommutativity can violate invariance
because it introduces a dependence on the order of operations, which breaks symmetries like Lorentz invariance in physical theories. In many standard theories, the order of operations does not matter, meaning the result is the same regardless of the sequence (this is the commutative property). However, in a noncommutative theory, this is not true, leading to consequences like the violation of fundamental symmetries, such as the conservation of energy-momentum, which is linked to translational invariance

 .....................

you (and your reference frame and clock) are always moving at the speed of light through spacetime, and what you think of as stationary is really moving in the time only direction....so that now, *relative* to the former stationary state, you are moving thru space too. But you’re moving less thru time, your clock runs slower *relative* to a clock left in the frame we called stationary,

 Galileo illustrated the relativity of motion by noting that the motion of a boat drifting down a placid river was undetectable below decks in the boat.

 https://www.quora.com/Can-you-explain-simply-why-time-slows-as-you-move-faster

 proper time may imply a different amount of time measured along some space-time path — which is one of the deepest answers to the so-called twin paradox — but it says nothing about the rate of passage, as it is called.

https://sciencephysicsmath.quora.com/In-simple-terms-why-does-time-slow-down-as-you-travel-closer-to-the-speed-of-light 

More importantly, Pythagoras’s theorem is different in space-time. In normal space, we can say and it then follows that the shortest distance between two points is a straight line. In space-time, the equivalent equation (using only one spatial dimension for simplicity) is

and the minus sign has serious counter-intuitive consequences, such as a straight path between two points actually maximising the proper time (i.e. the time as would be experienced, or measured, on such a path).

What this means is that any irregular (non-straight) path for one twin — whether it is a simple turnaround or a series of random accelerations and decelerations — will mean that the proper time for that path will be less than the one for something travelling at a steady constant velocity (i.e. a straight world-line in space-time). The other explanations are simply special cases of this. ...

The age discrepancy arises from the different space-time paths that they take. When they meet at some given space-time location then they will see the difference.

If two people simply walked different paths to get to a common meeting point, they could compare their routes and one might notice that they had used more shoe leather. This is similar only insomuch as they become aware when they meet, and not before. Neither has experienced time at a faster or slower rate — merely a different amount of it........

 The complication is because the rotating twin’s constantly changing inertial frame can be said to have a speed relative to the other twin. I suspect that the ageing difference would be visible to them — good question!...........

if you count ticks of clocks, one at rest and the other three moving fast in three perpendicular directions (as seen by the stationary clock), together with one for each pair as above, and square those counts, you obtain uniquely a quadratic form. It’s then an experimental fact that this quadratic form counts the squares of clock ticks on all clocks. In particular it makes no difference which clocks to use to measure it.

And it’s nondegenerate. So the orthogonal complement of the clock is three dimensional. It’s also an experimental fact that on the orthogonal complement this quadratic form is negative definite, so it’s minus a Pythagorean metric, and that this Euclidean space is in fact “space”, as experienced by that clock.

That’s the essential physical content.

If you understand this much, the rest is working out the mathematical consequences of the model.

 https://www.quora.com/Why-is-Einsteins-theory-of-relativity-considered-difficult-to-understand-even-for-physicists-Can-you-explain-why-it-may-not-make-sense-to-some-people

 In spacetime, two observers in different reference frames can no longer agree on “now.” Neither can they agree on “when.” “Now” for one observer might be the past for the other. Clocks do not tick at the same rate in spacetime. The distance from one place to another and the time it takes to get there is malleable. Straight lines are no longer straight and gravity is a pseudo-force caused by curvature in the presence of matter. There may be places in the universe where the passage of time no longer has any meaning and the known laws of physics break down.

But don’t get too comfortable with spacetime. Like all models, it has limits. Some of the math used in Einstein’s theory break down under extreme conditions like black holes or at the big bang. Solving that conundrum and unifying Relativity with Quantum Mechanics is the next holy grail of physics.

https://www.quora.com/What-is-spacetime-8 

Relativity says that there is a universal “now”, but it is impossible for me to verify the conditions of now at another place without getting a signal from there or to travel there. But both of them takes time and by the time I get that information, time will pass and things change by the time I verify them. I see the sun the way it was 8 minutes ago not the way it is now.

Physical processes happen all over the universe at a certain rate. There is such a thing as psychological experience of time and it is the result of remembering how things used to be and seeing the difference between that and how they are now. “My room was organized and now it’s messy” gives me the sensation of time passing.

But to have a quantitative sensation of time we need time measuring devices with an accurate rate. That can be moon cycles, seasons, sun dials, hour glasses and clocks.

Spacetime is a concept of imagining a tiny clock at every single point in space that measures the local time at that particular point. But this is just a model because obviously there is no clock at every single point in space.

Special relativity’s idealized spacetime model says that without mass all these clock are and remain synchronized all the time. This is not true because there is gravity everywhere and the clocks do get out of synch. But general relativity deals with that.

 https://www.quora.com/Why-is-spacetime-curved

 “Time curvature” affects the rate of clocks. As a general rule, in a gravitational field, clocks tick slower than elsewhere. This effect is primarily responsible for gravity. All other effects, including space curvature, contribute only a tiny, tiny correction except in the presence of extremely strong gravitational fields (surface of a neutron star, immediate vicinity of a black hole.)

https://www.quora.com/What-is-space-curvature-as-opposed-to-time-curvature-really 

  1. : for something moving at the vacuum speed of light, spatial curvature and time curvature contribute equally, doubling the effect of gravity on their trajectories.

To wit: Time curvature affects clocks; space curvature changes geometry.

my dad was secretly part of the National Committee for a Free Europe (?!): NCFE, A Nazi CIA collaboration propaganda effort....

 "I occupy a curious relation to him, of a confidential nature. It must suffice to say he is interested in my professional development..."

My dad referring to DeWitt Wallace, in my dad's letter to the Dean of NYU Law School, dated June 30, 1958

From the beginning the National Committee for a Free Europe depended upon the voluntary silence of powerful media personalities in the United States to cloak its true operations in secrecy. "Representatives of some of the nation's most influential media giants were involved early on as members of the corporation [NCFE]," Mickelson notes in a relatively frank history of its activities. This board included "magazine publishers Henry Luce [of Time-Life] and DeWitt Wallace [of Reader's Digest]," he writes, "but not a word of the government involvement appeared in print or on the air."

 https://thirdworldtraveler.com/Fascism/BareFists_B_CS.html

My Dad, in 1958, wrote to the dean of the NYU Law School that someone who had funded his alma mater college, half a million dollars in the previous year, could be persuaded to fund NYU if invited to speak or attend a seminar or something. Dad said that he had a "relationship of a confidential nature" with this person who "took a keen interest in the progress of" his career.

So my dad wrote this letter to the NYU Law School specifically to increase his own school funding for his studies in Europe. My dad ended up traveling into the Soviet Union and then my dad wrote a paper on "administrative law in the Soviet Union."

Their work was, as National Committee for a Free Europe President Dewitt Poole noted in one 1950 directive, "to take up the individual Bolshevik rulers and their quislings and tear them apart, exposing their motivations, laying bare their private lives, pointing at their meannesses, pillorying their evil deeds, holding them up to ridicule and contumely."

 DeWitt Clinton Poole was an American intelligence officerHe served as U.S. Consul General in Moscow, https://history.state.gov/historicaldocuments/frus1949v05/d176

 Members of the Committee, as of June 1, 1949 were: Frank Altschul (Treasurer), Hamilton Fish Armstrong, A. A. Berle, Francis Biddle, Robert Woods Bliss, Hugh A. Drum, Allen W. Dulles, Dwight D. Eisenhower, Mark Ethridge, James A. Farley, William Green, Joseph C. Grew (Chairman), Charles R. Hook, Arthur Bliss Lane, Henry R. Luce, Arthur W. Page, DeWitt C. Poole (Executive Secretary), Charles M. Spofford, Charles P. Taft, DeWitt Wallace, Mathew Woll.....

In fact, however, the "Document" was a forgery, whose origins can be traced to the wartime Nazi intelligence service. The true source of the "Document" was, according to American psychological warfare expert Paul Blackstock, "one of the Nazi secret police or related terrorist organizations such as the Sicherheitsdienst or one of the notorious SD or SS 'action groups' "

 The Kaplan Fund is what funds the Nation Magazine...

following revelations in 1964 when some of these CIA fronts were first accidentally exposed by Congressman Wright Patman during congressional hearings searching for communist infiltrations of American foundations. In these hearings Patman questioned an IRS employee about irregularities in several foundations, and his sworn public testimony was that the Kaplan Fund was being used by the CIA to fund projects and individuals of interest to the Agency. Patman learned from the CIA the names of eight nonprofits that funded the Kaplan Fund: The Gotham Foundation, Michigan Fund, Andrew Hamilton Fund, Borden Trust, The Price Fund, The Edsel Fund, The Beacon Fund, The Kentfield Fund. Though there was some brief news coverage of these disclosures, there was no real effort to trace what happened to the CIA funds passing through these CIA fronts and pass-throughs until Stern’s Ramparts exposé.

It was during Ramparts 1967 revelatory aftermath that the world first learned that the CIA covertly funded the publication of books, when a February 1967 New York Times story revealed that Praeger Press had published an unidentified number of books “at the CIA’s suggestion.” News reports soon revealed the CIA had secretly published other books with other presses.

 With most of these publications the CIA sought to strengthen the moderate left, bolstering liberal ideology as a way of keeping thinking people from pursuing socialism or communism.

 Chaneles used the example of Random House’s 1951 publication of Reader’s Digest author, Leland Stowe’s book, The Story of Satellite Europe: Conquest by Terror to show how the CIA bypassed the usual market forces governing books publications to guarantee sales and distribution of a book that likely would not have found a market to support its survival. He argued that “many thousands of copies of the book were purchased by CIA coordinated agencies for low cost and free distribution in the US and in those areas of the English-speaking world subject to the conspiracies in violation of the Sherman Act.”

 As Sharp (2001) has shown, the American journal Reader’s Digest was an
important medium for narrating the Cold War to American audiences, but the
OWI’s use of the digest format presaged its Cold War use, including the digest
Choix (Choice) in France and Il Mese (The month) in Italy. The digests in particular
were part of a larger Anglo-American project – the International Review Digest
(Koutsopanagou 2017) – which originated with a British editorial unit working
with the OWI’s Publications Division. The digests were edited jointly by Americans,
British, and in most cases representatives of the targeted nation. In the OWI’s own
estimation, the value of these publications was in ‘impressing their readers with the
global nature of the war, stressing the harmony of the United Nations toward victory,
and acquainting the European peoples to the customs, culture and basic democratic
principles of the United States’ (OWI 1944, 16). The promotional language was a pre-
view of US public diplomacy during the Cold War, including what it omitted, namely
issues surrounding race and class conflict in the United States.

 Sharp, J. (2001). Condensing the Cold War: Reader’s Digest and American identity.
Minneapolis: University of Minnesota Press. 

  First, and most obviously, the unitary communist threat of
world domination was delivered a significant blow with the breakdown
in Sino-Soviet relations. As tensions mounted along the Chinese-Soviet
border, the specter of communism clearly fractured and visibly weak-
ened. Second, and more subtly, the Digest faced a more insidious threat
to its binary scripting of international political praxis: the threat of
détente. The “weakening” of American opposition to communism—
backing down from the threat of “total war” to accept the possibility of
peaceful coexistence—represented a movement of great significance to
the magazine. The dis-order that communism had inflicted on interna-
tional society was not to be eliminated, but to be allowed to exist, albeit
in a contained state. The triumphalism of American Manifest Destiny
overcoming the Soviet threat to the onward march of freedom and
democracy was seen to weaken into an acknowledgment of communism,
contained within the sphere of influence of the Soviet state. Both of these
themes are central to the narrative of international politics during the
period of détente from the mid-1960s to 1979.

Birth of Psychological warfare 

 , the Crusade was launched in a national radio address by presi-
dential hopeful Dwight Eisenhower, then-president of Columbia University. The
context of Labor Day was significant, as Eisenhower again stressed that under
Communism ‘one third of the human race works in virtual bondage’ (New York
Times, 5 September 1950a). On its surface, the Crusade for Freedom’s debut there-
fore appeared as a campaign to publicise the NCFE and its effort to fund and
operate Radio Free Europe in Eastern Europe.
Within the framework of funding Radio Free Europe, however, the NCFE
advanced a geopolitical imaginary in which ordinary Americans could partici-
pate in a kind of ‘spiritual warfare’ against the Soviet Union, what the New York
Times supportively called a ‘world-wide battle for men’s minds’ (New York Times,
4 July 1950). The Times barely altered NCFE press releases in framing the Crusade
as filling ‘the need for a large-scale democratic truth offensive … in the most
important battle of all, the battle of ideas’ (New York Times, 28 July 1950).

  I started digging through my dad's NYU law school file (from 1956-1960) - as my dad got a Ford Foundation grant to study in Sweden as the 2nd half of a Ph.D. in Law. My dad wrote a letter to the Dean of NYU Law saying my dad had a "confidential occupational relationship" with DeWitt Wallace (on the board of the Committee for a Free Europe and founder of Reader's Digest)... see the above link for the precise quote... 

In 1956, the Ford Foundation awarded a grant of $375,000 to New York University (NYU) Law School for a program in international legal studies
....

A US Congressional investigation in 1976 revealed that nearly 50% of the 700 grants in the field of international activities by the principal foundations were funded by the CIA (Who Paid the Piper? The CIA and the Cultural Cold War, Frances Stonor Saunders, Granta Books, 1999, pp. 134-135).”

The CIA considers foundations such as Ford “The best and most plausible kind of funding cover” (Ibid, p. 135).... by the late 1950s the Ford Foundation possessed over $3 billion in assets. The leaders of the Foundation were in total agreement with Washington’s post-WWII projection of world power. A noted scholar of the period writes: “At times it seemed as if the Ford Foundation was simply an extension of government in the area of international cultural propaganda. The foundation had a record of close involvement in covert actions in Europe, working closely with Marshall Plan and CIA officials on specific projects” (Ibid, p.139). This is graphically illustrated by the naming of Richard Bissell as President of the Foundation in 1952. In his two years in office Bissell met often with the head of the CIA, Allen Dulles, and other CIA officials in a “mutual search” for new ideas. In 1954 Bissell left Ford to become a special assistant to Allen Dulles in January 1954 (Ibid, p. 139). Under Bissell, the Ford Foundation was the “vanguard of Cold War thinking”...

In 1954 the new president of the Ford Foundation was John McCloy. He epitomized imperial power. Prior to becoming president of the Ford Foundation he had been Assistant Secretary of War, president of the World Bank, High Commissioner of occupied Germany, chairman of Rockefeller’s Chase Manhattan Bank, Wall Street attorney for the big seven oil companies and director of numerous corporations. As High Commissioner in Germany, McCloy had provided cover for scores of CIA agents (Ibid, p. 141).

McCloy integrated the Ford Foundation with CIA operations. He created an administrative unit within the Ford Foundation specifically to deal with the CIA. McCloy headed a three person consultation committee with the CIA to facilitate the use of the Ford Foundation for a cover and conduit of funds.

and DeWitt Wallace (founder/owner of Reader's Digest) was "interested in" my dad's career. My dad had graduated from Macalester College as a leader in the Republican cause and DeWitt Wallace was a big Macalester College funder...
So I know from Prof. Christopher Simpson that any international Ford Foundation grant was screened through the CIA Russia Institute at Columbia University. My dad corresponded with a Columbia University law professor who was promoting Hayek (freedom from serfdom, etc.) to be my dad's Ph.D. advisor. My dad did the course work but he never wrote his thesis since his mother-in-law came over to Sweden and then got her daughter to divorce my dad back in the U.S. (that was his first wife).
So then my dad traveled into the Soviet Union to study "administrative law" and then I found a CIA document listing the Soviet Union sponsoring "administrative law" conferences in English as Communist front groups... Also my dad corresponded heavily with NYU law professor Edmond Cahn who was listed by the McCarthy UnAmerican committee as a "member" or "sponsor" of the USA Communist Party....

My dad, as a lawyer in the MN Bar, also administered trusts back in Minnesota where DeWitt Wallace had recently given $500,000 to Macalester College (in 1957 dollars). So my dad was recommending the Dean of NYU invite DeWitt Wallace to entice Wallace to fund NYU Law so that my dad could supplement his Ford Foundation grant monies. My dad did end up taking a summer course at UC-London and also he studied in Paris privately - on law....
My dad was an alumni of Macalester but also was the chairman of their alumni association - working closely with their "director of development." So then around 1967 the Macalester College "director of development" (who obviously was close to DeWitt Wallace since he continued to fund Macalester College) had my dad host a "discussion on the Vietnam War" at my house. I was not born yet but my mom told me the event was held at our house to ensure the students would not get riled up and take action - like occupy a building, etc.  That same "director of development" at Macalester also did "interior design" work on our house - doing our kitchen, breakfast room, basement, etc. So I'm pretty sure there was some Quid Pro Quo going on... via DeWitt Wallace. 

new Farside Comic questions Jane Goodall's Ngogo natural war chimp primate instinct a la R. Brian Ferguson

 https://www.thefarside.com/new-stuff/363/club-gombe

 I was watching the Netflix "chimp empire" doc and they focus on the "warring chimps" of Ngogo. This got me curious - I had not really dug into the details of R. Brian Ferguson's tome, "War, Chimpanzees and History" - sure enough Ngogo is the central focus of the book. AI summary:

 R. Brian Ferguson is a cultural anthropologist at Rutgers University who has written extensively on human warfare and has also analyzed chimpanzee violence, particularly at the Ngogo research site in Kibale National Park. His work on Ngogo chimpanzees, detailed in his book Chimpanzees, War, and History, argues that the extreme levels of violence are not natural but are instead a result of human-induced habitat loss and resource scarcity, a perspective that challenges common theories about inherent aggression in chimpanzees.

So he quotes Goodall and kind of critiques her....

Glad to see his work being discussed online.

https://www.reddit.com/r/AskAnthropology/comments/1d5wn45/book_that_mentions_how_european_imperialists/ 

 when you go into culture you are ignoring that music and dancing as spiritual healing is the focus of our original human culture. Goto the "radical anthropology" vimeo lectures for details - Professors Chris Knight and Camilla Powers and Jerome Lewis out of UC-London and Ian Watts and Megan Biesele and Dr. Elizabeth Marshall-Thomas. I recommend her book "The Harmless People" that got ignored by the male anthropologists. 

So as Professor Michael Corballis emphasizes - as primates we used hands for language for gesturing but as tool use increased this meant the right hand could no longer gesture as communication since it was using a tool. So left-brain dominant language developed. But music as frequency is right brain dominant based on left-hand dominance of the hand. So as Michael Corballis points out when you make rhythm with your hands the left hand keeps a steady beat - why? Because timing is based on the corpus callosum - not the prefrontal cortex. 

So Dr. Daniel Levitin has emphasized how the corpus callosum is not just for timing but also emotional processing of our subconscious. What the spiritual healing training does - as detailed in the ancient science of yoga and meditation - is consciously control what is otherwise subconscious, thereby making a direct access to our spiritual or biophoton "body" as it were. Quantum biology is just now starting to study this interaction. So ancient DNA science has now proven the San Bushmen and "pygmies" split over 225,000 years ago - and so they maintained the same focus of singing and dancing as spiritual healing in both cultures - the radical anthropology group studies this but only Professor Brad Keeney trained in this from the inside. 

So Keeney started out studying shamanism worldwide as a systems theory psychology professsor but then he focused on the San Bushmen as the original human origin of this spiritual healing culture. So Keeney is the only outsider accepted as a spiritual healer in the San Bushmen culture - he goes there every year to hang out. His YT channel "Keeney Center" has interviews with the older female spiritual healers of the San Bushmen culture. So when you go into "ecosystem engineering" and use the beaver as an analogy - the problem is that modern humans with farming created abrupt global warming - this was detailed in William Ruddiman's book "Plows, Plagues and Petroleum." 

So the irony of your focus on evolution is that we currently face "biological annihilation" through accelerating destruction of ecology. I got a certificate in conservation biology and sustainable development in 1992 in Costa Rica, from a semester at the School for Field Studies. It's one thing to study evolution but it's entirely different to change policies of our petro-dollar imperial destruction of ecology from "free trade zones" etc. In fact actually doing sustainable policy work is a quick route to civil disobedience and begging for donations door to door or on the phone while not making enough money to pay rent, etc. 

I did get a few policy changes in my time but I also saw people get fired, etc. And thus the norm now is for academics to chase after research funding by ignoring the details of our "biological annihilation" - for example the research group of Natalia Shakhova gets ignored even though she got published in Nature and top science journals - there is a 1200 gigaton pressurized methane subsea permafrost "abrupt eruption" that has the taliks melted down already to release 50 gigatons (triggered already) in the next ten years. This will soon double atmospheric temps yet this "tipping point" is ignored by mainstream science - unless you go to oceanographer Jim Massa's yt channel (he worked with Shakhova at UA-Fairbanks).

The Cult of Force: My dad's close correspondence with NYU Law Professor Edmond Cahn as potential NYU J.S.D. advisor

It is a pleasure to recommend you for anything you desire....While Professor Sweeney has not shown me the draft outline to which you refer, I am confident the undertaking will be a very creditable one, if only because it is yours. You may rest assured that, to the extent you desire my informal comments and advice at any stage, you need only arrange to see me and I shall be glad to evince the hearty interest that I feel.

Edmond Cahn to my dad in a letter from New York University Law School, 14th March 1960... 

At the time in 1959 Cahn had already declined being my dad's advisor, as Cahn said his health was being pushed to the limits in his efforts of converting his seminars to books, etc. but Professor Cahn still was very complimentary and considerate:

"I am particularly pleased by the request because there is no doctoral candidate during my years of teaching whom I should prefer to supervise."

My dad took the coursework for his Ph.D. in law in Sweden - William J. Hempel '58. (LL.M. '59) at NYU Law....he had to return back to the U.S. to write his thesis but apparently his mother-in-law had visited Sweden and all hell broke loose, ending in divorce via the mother-in-law once back in the U.S. hahaha. 

Edmond Cahn wrote kind words to encourage my dad's work after my dad's divorce to his first wife but Cahn himself was too overwhelmed in work to take on my dad's advising project. 

 "Meanwhile, be assured that I remain deeply interested in your welfare and progress."

13th December, 1960. 

Everyone said my dad's book was too ambitious and my dad was translating Swedish legal articles at the time. I didn't realize my Dad had taken "advanced Swedish" in Stockholm and my dad had done well - achieving an A or A-minus in his Swedish classes! Considering my grandfather gave a sermon in Swedish...Professor Cahn asked me dad to help translate some legal work of another....

 After an LL.M. (Master of Laws), the next step for further academic study is typically a doctoral degree like the Doctor of Juridical Science...A Doctor of Juridical Science (S.J.D. or J.S.D.) is a terminal research doctorate in law, equivalent to a Ph.D., designed for those who want to become legal scholars or academics

Professor Cahn mentions...

"since I have soon to undergo a minor operation...." 

May 1960.... was that in relation to what followed just four years later?
