A picture shows the prehistoric monument of Stonehenge, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, on Salisbury Plain in Wiltshire, in central southern England, on July 12, 2012.

LONDON -- A cutting-edge laser scan of Stonehenge has shown how Britain's enigmatic neolithic monument was built to enhance the dramatic passage of sunlight through the circle of stones at midsummer and midwinter.

The slabs were intended to appear at their best in the dawn light on the longest day of the year and at sunset on the shortest, the scan for English Heritage found.

The vaccine empire has collapsed

by Jon Rappoport

You may not have heard the explosion, but it happened.

A review from The Cochrane Collaboration, a widely respected research-analysis team, went over all the evidence, and entered its conclusion:

In healthy adults, no flu vaccine delivers protection from the flu.

Boom!

It doesn’t protect against transmission of flu viruses from person to person, either.

Boom!

The Man Who Changed Iceland’s Message To The World – We Can Too! – A Sheep No More – 10 October 2012

Arrest the Banksters! from the man that started the revolution in Iceland

The man who forced the government of Iceland to resign and kicked out the IMF representatives from his country, Hordur Torfarson, is now teaching meta-modern democracy throughout Europe. The rest of the world would benefit from following the example set by Iceland: Arresting the corrupt bankers who are responsible for the current economic turmoil.

#! Here is his amazing story

Full employment contributes above all to achieving human dignity.
”It’s nice to be important, but is more important to be nice.”

The true measure of the leader is not how many followers he has, but how many leaders he creates.

A sceptical scientist who had spent his career studying the mechanics of the brain and dismissing patient tales of journeys to heavenly realms has revealed his extraordinary conversion after his own encounter with the afterlife during a near-death experience.

Dr Eben Alexander spent 15 years as an academic neurosurgeon at Harvard but he was struck with a nearly fatal bout of bacterial meningitis in 2008 and had no brain activity when he lay comatose for seven days at a Virginia hospital.

Nothing kills a career faster than being branded a kook, and in many circles, that's what you are when you admit you've seen a UFO. The stakes are raised, of course, if we're talking about academic communities, and even more so among astronomers -- people who study the skies.

Many astronomers say there's nothing of any scientific merit that could result in the study of UFOs.

News.com.au - Harold Heckle, 10/8/12

TENS of thousands of people have marched in 56 Spanish cities to protest punishing austerity cuts they say will only increase unemployment and job insecurity in a country experiencing its second recession in three years and record high unemployment.

Around 20,000 people marched in Madrid on Sunday behind a banner that said: "They want to ruin the country. We have to stop them." The rally in Spain's capital was supported by 150 organisations.

Protesters chanted slogans against cuts and waved placards reading "youth without jobs, society with no future." That is a reference to the youth unemployment rate, which surpasses 50 per cent. Spain's overall jobless rate is nearly 25 per cent and social unrest is on the rise.

Wall Street Journal - Michael J. Casey, 10/4/12

The idea of your local priest peppering his Sunday sermon with references to “the London Interbank Offered Rate” might sound far-fetched, but you may want to be prepared for it. The Libor scandal has entered the religious realm.

In fact, a multi-faith coalition of activist organizations doesn’t want to stop there. According to a statement Thursday, it believes average Americans are being deprived in their television news of coverage of the sweeping story of how banks allegedly rigged a benchmark interest rate that’s used to price everything from student loans and adjustable-rate mortgages to money market funds, credit cards and business credit lines.

The High Cost of Losing Insect Populations To GMO: Ecological Interactions Are At Risk

At first blush, many people would probably love to get rid of insects, such as pesky mosquitoes, ants and roaches. But a new study indicates that getting rid of insects could trigger some unwelcome ecological consequences, such as the rapid loss of desired traits in plants, including their good taste and high yields. Genetically modified crops and insecticides are facilitating this process.



Specifically, the study--described in the Oct. 5, 2012 issue of Scienceand funded by the National Science Foundation showed that evening primroses grown in insecticide-treated plots quickly lost, through evolution, defensive traits that helped protect them from plant-eating moths. The protective traits lost included the production of insect-deterring chemicals and later blooms that gave evening primroses temporal distance from plant-eating larvae that peak early in the growing season.
