• The Sun Part One

    Preface

     

    In the Months ahead  I will tackle the powers that exist within our sun.  Its mind altering  effects  and its tectonic influence.

    This subject has taken me since 1997  to completely understand.  But it was in November 1997  that i first witnessed a phenomina  which lead me on this journey.   It Is with thanks to the influence  of my parents  and the mystery of Religion  that i come here today.  What started out as a mild interest  quickly grew into something  so overwhelming  that it is today  a story  that must be written.  Let me explain first that every step i have taken over the past 15 years  is soaked in a supposed supernatural influence. I all the while remained steadfast within the realms of reason and logic.   There is no doubt in my mind however  that the influences of religion  and my own complete faith until the age of 14 had something to do with figuring this stuff out. 

    I had never thought  that the discovery I would make would answer all the questions  of my youth  and even restore my faith in some of the cultures and ideology I had been taught as a child were foolish exploits.  Perhaps everything is foolish,  and that is the point.

    But enough of being cryptic. 

    I realised at the age of 20 that a new understanding was required in our society.  It had been 2000 years  since any reasonable reconacance had been completed  by an Irish man.  I saw an opening  if you will,  or perhaps I asked for it. Or perhaps it was mere coincidence... a flip of a coin  that chose me. 

    What I have realised about our star  is sometimes  you are chosen,  or appear to be chosen. You feel its just you,  but there are thousands possibly feeling just the same.

     

    The question is this for now,   do you think its possible that an irish man  Could link astrology,  theology,  religion, pyschology and physics  and get away with it.

     

    What botheres me most is where to begin,  how to start,  what to write,  when to say each bit that matters  and who I'm trying to talk to.  The logic may not be acceptable to

    Is it the parent who wonders about religion,  or the atheist  who strives for answers.

     

    I remember being 14 and i swore  to myself when i was 14 that I'd never forget what it was like to be 14. 

     

    Is it the 14 year olds who deserve a less crptic foothold on spirituality?  Did those who wrote the good books expect for for others to come along who understood the true meaning.  Or did people exist in the past for whom  the meaning  was obvious and hardly required explaining.  Times have changed,  but the essence of time  has remained somewhat constant.  In the scale of something like the sun, time is a storm of physical mass.   A year on the sun lasts 2500 earth years ,  some cycles  last 90 earth years,  storms rage and die every 33 earth years.

    The amazon river levels  track precicely the 33 year cycle ...

    The Galaxy in which our star resides projects its own influence all very much in the mainstream

     without ever happening to step on a rocket. One giant leap from within the confounds of a small room in Ireland.

    But this information is nothing new,  its built from the persuits of others who have studied silently in their little rooms. Many in the recent past have confirmed most of what i have to say. With thanks to Nasa,  who unleashed data about our star over the past decade.  Us feeble ones  finally get to know the truth of the matter..  What really makes us tick.

    Freud called it libbido,  I call it the essence of life and mystery.  The cause of trust,  the cause of crusade,   The igniter of dreams.

    For four years now i have collated data,  streamed and screened thousands of hours of solar data.  Conducted social experiments and studied the art of explaining.  Cause this will take some explaining.   

    Ye of little faith,  I never thought i'd say that with a smile on my face. 

     

    Very few it seems  can explain  why the sky is blue. Or why the rain always  follows the thunder.  Even fewer of these people existed 2000 years ago.   They knew history repeated itself though,  over and over.  They tried to arm the future with skills of theology and one soul.  It may seem pathetic and conveluted,  but people actually thought differently back then.   Even Napoleon  realised this finally  in eygpt.   I will present an argument  That at times will be a labor for your mind.  But there will be nothing  made up.. nothing half baked.

    This bun is ready for consumption

    At times you will feel the need to help me explain what i'm trying to say. feel free. 

    Chapter One -

    Staring at the touch screen appliance before him, sweat dripping from his brow.  An idea which had been hatched only 4 weeks prior waking up before his eyes.  A moment of triumph in alot of ways.. a moment played out thousands of times in little ways all over the planet.  A young eagle will take its first leap of flight. A smile will break out in a funeral, a glance will take place between two suspecting lovers.  A feeling of " Where will this journey take us.?"   and in an instant it is gone.   But in that instant so many leaps of faith can be achieved.  The trouble is knowing then what to do.

    We explain this feeling with one word,  LOVE,  but love is like a rainbow

       And what of writing down the journey as it is?

  • Government’s discrepancies about the international cocaine trade (New)

    The amount of cocaine seized in 2011 has outstripped the estimate of world cocaine production provided by the U.S. Department of State. Despite the opposing official viewpoint of the U.S., Colombia is still the world leader of cocaine production, and even the U.S. Coast Guard proved the White House’s figures wrong.

     ROME (December 7, 2011) – Obama, we have a problem. Cocaine seized worldwide in 2011 has
     surpassed the world production estimate provided by the U.S. Through the end of November, over
     734 metric tons have been intercepted on drug routes worldwide this year, but the American
     Department of State maintains that the world production sums up to just 700 metric tons. This
     seeming contradiction is going to keep growing until the end of this year. We estimate that by
     December 31 about 744-794 metric tons of cocaine are going to be seized. It would be as if a
     farmer says that he has ten chickens, and then a fox eats him 12. And the farmer still manages to
     sell chickens at the market anyway. Apparently someone’s math is wrong. We at Narcoleaks
     believe that this is not just a trivial mistake.

     Even the official figures don’t add up. According to the latest official statements by UNODC
     (United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime), the U.S. authorities and the Colombian government,
     Peru has taken Colombia's place as the world's largest producer of cocaine. The claim was proved
     wrong by the data on drug seizures. In 2011, about 80% of seized cocaine and of which the
     production country was known and disclosed, originated from Colombia, less than 10% from Peru.
     The official data on Colombia are even more impressive. The latest estimate provided by the U.S.
     authorities on the annual production of cocaine in Colombia refers to 290 metric tons. As of today,
     though, the seizure operations of Colombian cocaine carried out in different countries have
     totaled 351.8 metric tons of cocaine, i.e. 121.3% of Colombia’s annual production according to the U.S. Department of State’s estimates.
     Ironically, the Policia Nacional de Colombia itself drew the line on the whole affair with an official
     statement. On 14 October, the Colombian police found in the department of Meta a maxi
     cristalizadero (a cocaine processing lab) with about 6 metric tons of cocaine, the capacity to
     produce 500 to 800 kilos of cocaine per day, i.e. between 182 and 292 metric tons of cocaine per
     year 1. If we take the 290 t annual production estimated by the US State Department to be true, it
     means that Colombia has only one cocaine laboratory. This would be utterly preposterous. In
     Colombia, about 250-300 operating cristalizaderos, with startling productive capacity, are found
     and destroyed every year, but these represent only a part of the existing ones.

     A formidable blow to the U.S. Department of State’s estimates came a few days ago, and it was
     “friendly fire”. According to an official bulletin by the U.S. Coast Guard issued on December 12, of
     the 771 metric tons of cocaine known to be bound for the U.S. in 2011, more than 85 percent was
     transported on the high seas. This proved wrong the data released by the Department of State and
     by the UN, according to which cocaine trafficking towards the U.S. went down to 200 tons in the
     last few years.

     The embarassing contradictions are visible to anyone, and you don’t need to go through any
     leaked cable to spot them. Narcoleaks’ analyses are the result of a daily media monitoring project
     carried out by a group of Italian journalists and researchers, in collaboration with the Italian press
     agency Redattore Sociale. Over 100 media and institutional sources have been monitored on a
     daily basis since last January. More than 4,700 anti-drug operations which led to seize huge
     quantities of cocaine have been recorded. An average of 14 major operations per day, and of 2
     metric tons of cocaine seized worldwide every day. Narcoleaks’ data mining and collection process
     is very meticulous, it doesn’t omit the details of any seizure operation, in order to avoid duplicate
     entries and to catch the different dynamics. Narcoleaks kept track only of those seizure operations
     for which an high purity level of cocaine was certain.

     “We don’t publish secrets. We collect evidence”, is Narcoleaks’ motto. We don’t commit any
     offence, we don’t reveal State secrets, we did never even think of getting any top secret file. Our
     strength lies in the evidence and in getting the overall picture, that unfortunately is frequently
     missing for issues like the international trade of cocaine. Too often the international media trust
     blindly the data provided by governmental institutions, without verifying what is stated on their
     annual reports. It is unpleasant, moreover, to know that within the major investigative bodies and
     in the main international summits on counter-trafficking policies, people are fully aware of
     ‘cooked’ data, but that nobody is brave enough to make these facts come out. Interests are huge,
     ways to conceal the reality are sophisticated, but the truth will out. One mistake is sufficient to
     foul up even the most tested out space mission.

     President Obama, we know that you are well aware of the issues that we have addressed here.
     When you still were senator for Illinois, you were in the U.S. Senate Committee on Foreign
     Relations (SFRC). In December 2005, under President George W. Bush, the Committee examined
     in detail the issue of the fight against drug trafficking, producing the official report “Plan Colombia:
     Elements for success”3 . The report stated: “The lack of reliable evidence of well-documented
     progress in the war against drugs and neutralizing paramilitaries is disappointing considering the
     billions of dollars the U.S. Congress has appropriated to finance drug interdiction and eradication
     since 2000. In 2005 coca eradication broke the 136,000 hectare record and destroyed the
     equivalent of 160 metric tons of cocaine; and though cocaine seized in 2004 almost tripled to 325
     metric tons of cocaine, and is expected to be larger for 2005, Colombia continues to provide about
     90 percent of the cocaine available in the U.S., in spite of the appropriated funds being earmarked
     for Department of State programs in Colombia to fight drug trafficking and terrorism through Plan
     Colombia”. Among the other recommendations, the report called for the following measures: “It is
     strongly advised that the USG, particularly the Department of Defense and the Department of
     Homeland Security, develop and coordinate reliable performance metrics to accurately measure
     the flow of cocaine into the United States. Once this is done, all parties will have accurate metrics
     on success or failure”.

     This said, we would like to address to the President of the United States Barack Obama, to the

     U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, and to the Director of the Office of National Drug
     Control Policy Gil Kerlikowske, the following questions:
     1.
     How is it possible that, according to your official data, the quantity of cocaine seized is
     higher than the estimate of cocaine produced?
     2.
     How is it possible that the U.S. Department of State maintains that the world production of
     cocaine amounts to 700 metric tons, if according to the U.S. Coast Guard the only U.S.
     bound cocaine trafficking from South America equals already 771 metric tons?
     3.
     How is it possible that different U.S. authorities are in direct contradiction with each other?
     4.
     Why do they continue to claim that cocaine production in Colombia has dropped when all
     the available data say otherwise?
     5.
     In light of these contradictions, are all the billions of dollars spent to fund Plan Colombia
     justified?

  • Back to Xanga

    I did warn you all a few years ago about my up and coming  Ninja Mission which i had to undertake.  Although  at the time I was unsure what my Chinese masters  could need me for..  or indeed  if they really were chinese.  It turns out  I was  wrong about alot of things.  I'm sorry i left you,  took away the photos,  the daily bread.  But didn't it happen  to everyone?

    Did not everyone venture away from the light,  and go swimming?

    Maybe it was just me....  its hard to tell.  I have missed  the beautiful peacfulness of Xanga..  where a misunderstanding  rarely  caused anything of a riot.  I've missed just being able to write like a normal person. To other normal people. 

    My mission  took me to the four corners of our round planet.  I discovered  some more  about the world  that i had been missing.  Namely i discovered  how Media  works,  How television,  radio  and newspapers  work..  or who they work for.  There's  really only one word  for what i now understand -  Propaganda.

    Our  world is infested with a plague of false media,  wars on terror,  fake racists,  and agenda driven politics.  Our politicians  play  a game of get rich quick  at our expense.  And when one set gt rich  another set come along to extract their wealth from the people.  And so on and so forth  this game has continued  unchecked for eons. 

    We've all known about this elected divide,  and most of us have been able to live our lives without feeling much of an impact from these political games.  But  and its a huge  but.  In the past two decades  something  wilder  than shooting a porn movie in your front room with your parents has occurred on this planet.  The game  has gotten horribly out of control  and is now  devastating  millions of people world wide.

    3800  suicides  in  4 years in Ireland alone. 

    What could this thing be,  and how could it happen  without us knowing.

    I'm back here on xanga  to write it  out,  to publish the story of truth  for all to see and ponder.  Though  it will probably be the people of the future who really understand  the now.  I really hope that there are the expected millions of people who truly get it today and a willing to do something about it.  Today.

    Lets  begin then,  where i left off..  2008   the day after i found out i couldn't have kids.  Cause that day was important.  Sad but important.    I recorded this video using  xanga's  capture utility at the time.  I marked it private  and made a protected post  so some of you might understand.  The rest of you  just saw me fade away.  No longer ignited with passion   I went swimming again.  Like swimming when i was seventeen.  But this swimming was different.

    This swimming  was on purpose,  to try to bring back from the darkside  some understanding.

    four years  now I've swam,  and only now I find the shore again. 

    Peace

  • the post below

    That post (the one posted before this entry) was this day 7 years ago... and what moments have passed since than have not all been recorded.. I stopped writing as easily when friends and family and work got hold of this site address. I went back into my shell somewhat and just posted photos. That drift in time grew in to a bigger rift.

    I found myself frustrated with the world and with wars and have spent the last four years battling the imagined demonic possession of humaity. I too got caught up in the flow.. the downward spiral.

    But its only natural.. right?

    So I've been off on a journey i supposed. Forgetting all the while little bits of myself.

    Tonight i read back to 2004, to grasp what was me. And for the first time in a long time i open up my own diary and begin to read it from the beginning.. to try to find where "I" really left off in enjoying the world. I feel a tingling inside, some sort of need to write again. To discover the comical side a bit more.

    So thats all that was about.. context.

  • Its only a return if i post for a month

    Its Tuesday... work is looking up. I've got some new jobs in the pipe line and contacts coming in all over the place. 


    I've to price a hotel job today.  Could be brilliant news.


     


    Well later...


    MY TIDE IS RETURNING


    I felt like I was in an interview today, meeting with this hotel manager. It went really well and I reckon I'll be putting in a wireless solution soon.  Someone commented asking what I did for a living.  I work...  and stupid hard at the moment. I'm trying to start a company dealing mostly in wireless network solutions. Broadband or DSL. Supplying wireless internet to hotels, bars,  home office and offices. SME's .  This will be the biggest area job I've done. - But there's so much meting and greeting at the moment and not so much work and ..... Cheques.  I  also work 9- 5 for a company doing network support  and then once every week or so I manage a network in Dublin city centre for Sysco. Its a bit of a handful trying to find time to go meet prospects during an already busy week.  BUt I've got to try to focus.  I hope to go out on my own business wise by next May at the latest. The amount of work right now is tempting me to leave my 9 - 5  but just another few months and I'll have the money I need to feel a bit more secure. 


    I remember years ago dreaming up ideas for companies and thinking it was just as easy as dreaming it to achieve it. The last year has changed all that.  I'm glad I set a date of next may to be on my own feet.  I think I may actually realise that deadline. I've realised that you sometimes don't get paid for a job for 90 days.  That work doesn't always come.  That there's a downside to working too hard.  That it actually takes work... and contacts  to build a business.


    Its been hard the last two years,  after getting back from oz and having to start again. That was the hardest year,  but 2003 is a distant memory  and only 4 months left in this 2004.  How time is flying,  how months are starting to disappear. It takes a day and a feeling like today to just melt all the bad shit away. My tide is returning. I feel really nice today maybe things are looking up... maybe I should start believing it.


     


    Incidentally,  the sun is shining today in Dublin,  I'm sipping a beer  and trying to write up a quote for this hotel. How much is too much?


    After sales service....  note to self.


     


    Its been 7 months...
