Boulder Colorado to vote on municipal home rule for electricity

Bloomington, Indiana, where I live, is constantly battling state and federal jurisdictions and attitudes that violate the values of the majority of those who live here. Transportation issues have been especially prevalent these past few years. Early this spring we lost a battle to not widen “the Bypass;” now we’re in the final stages of […]

Lee Speigel: are all UFO “rods” really insects?

For those still looking for visual evidence of ET technology (or needing something to show to their friends) here’s an article plus videos that I really enjoyed for its sly, subtle switching back and forth between (seeming?) “scientific” skepticism and real honest-to-God incredulity; not until the very end did it become clear which “side” would […]

Chris Hedges: on the walls (between classes) tumbling down

I’d heard of dumpster diving for years; my mind loved the idea, and yet my spine would stiffen and my mouth would pucker in distaste. I’d heard of people living between the cracks of our consumer society, either falling from or deliberately letting go of money, home base, a way of life that the rest […]

Occupy prison: an (old!) woman’s story

This story hit close to home. The author is “70 plus years old.” I’m only 68, and have no intention of spending the weekend in jail, especially under conditions akin to medieval torture. Barbara Schneider Reilly didn’t intend to get arrested, either. Thanks to alterneg.org. Occupy Wall Street Protester, Arrested and Jailed for 30 Hours, […]

Heinberg, on a “hard-to-swallow fact”: “economic growth is over”

This is the first, and to me, most fundamental, of several recent Occupy commentaries that I’m going to post today and tomorrow. Heinberg, author of “The Party’s Over,” is an expert on peak oil, peak everything, and what he thinks are most likely post-peak scenarios. As for ET technologies (and free energy), I don’t think […]

My 11.11.11

My life path is supposedly (or supposed to be) that of a “master,” with master number 11 (12+ 19+ 1942= actually, either a 20 or an 11, depending on how you count the numbers). My first name, Ann (A1, N5, N5) is also an 11. My surname, Kreilkamp, has two K’s, both 11’s. In short, […]

Tune in at 11.11 on 11.11.11

For those who have commented on the Fire the Grid post, seeing more information, here’s some from Jean Hudon, at earthrainbownetwork.com. It looks like 11:11 AM GMT is the time to tune in — though of course becoming one with the meditative state of unity as we go through our daily lives, minute by minute […]

My Mayan Calendar culmination: a five day Zikr retreat

Tomorrow, I go on retreat for five days at a retreat conference center near Columbus Ohio. Birthed by tomorrow’s New Moon in Scorpio, and centered in the culmination of the (Calleman version of) the Mayan Calendar on Friday, October 28, I will move deep into Zikr meditation with a Sufi group guided by Neil Douglas […]

Fulford’s latest predictions and “insider” commentary, followed by Wilcock response

There are a number of posts which lead up to this one. Search Fulford and/or Wilcock to see them. Start with the interview, if you haven’t seen any of them yet. Thanks to Mark and 2012: What’s the Truth? Two articles: Ben Fulford’s complete post followed by David Wilcock’s comment on it. Posted on October […]

Barbara Hand Clow: Scorpio New Moon, October 26, two days prior to end of Mayan Calendar: “creative developments are swirling us into a spiral of Oneness. . .”

As usual, if you don’t know the language of astrology, just skip the astrological references and focus on the meaning and how it manifests in the external and internal world: the orientation and placement of the symbols she refers to and the qualities of the planetary energies involved. Given that the Scorpio New Moon (Moon/Sun […]

Lee Spiegel: UFO? or US military?

Thanks to huffpost. What this article does not mention is the high probability that much of our hi-tech military technology has been back-engineered from crashed ET craft and/or ET handing us the knowledge themselves. So, though you may not be looking at a UFO from another world when you see something weird in the sky, […]

Neighborhood Assemblies as Occupation Zones

This is an extraordinary piece hailing from Barcelona that goes to the heart of the matter. It is in neighborhoods that we must gather — and interact, and get to know each other — in order to move forward together. Very interesting suggestions as to Occupy actions we can take — e.g. occupy a a […]

Police, retired military, “oathkeepers,” all with common cause, all part of the 99%

Update, thanks to Rhonda: Occupy Oakland violently evicted in the middle of last night on orders from the city. Last night my houseguest Jim showed me this photo on his facebook page. It took me a while to make sense of it. Look closely. The tiny defenseless girl in the middle wearing pink. The policeman’s […]

Turtle power: slow, sure and steady

In case you haven’t seen this, it’s well worth watching. Do we realize that we can, slowly and surely, right a situation that is totally upside down? Do we know how to steadily apply leverage at the point where it will be most effective? Do we dedicate our lives to serving others? [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HETr3Y9s3to] I just […]

On history, denial, “unpeople,” books and their destruction

This afternoon, I went to the local public library (named “second best” of its size in the U.S.!) to see if I could check out Howard Zinn’s “A People’s History of the United States.” Hmmm. Two copies: one missing, the other checked out. I often ask myself: Why haven’t I read this book before? The […]

Chris Hedges: “The power of the Occupy movement is that it has not replicated the beliefs of the New Left”

“Rather,” he continues, “It is rooted in the moral imperatives of justice and self-sacrifice.” I read somewhere that Chris Hedges may be this century’s Tom Paine. I tend to agree. His language is exacting, rhythmic, and beautiful — always a pleasure to read. Plus, I tend to trust his take on events (see him on […]

Legal Fictions of the Unoccupied

Seems to me this T-shirt, besides being wonderfully succinct and exact, says a hell of a lot about how legal fictions insert themselves into voids left by those unaware that they are being had. I.e., it’s not that “nature abhors a vacuum,” but that human greed, that most strange and unnatural state of feeling unoccupied, […]

The Occupation and the Homeless

Two weeks ago, Occupy Bloomington began in People’s Park where the homeless live, with some occupiers not understanding the conditions of extreme poverty. So a big issue at the camp is to avoid divisions. A potential problem is that some individuals in the occupy movement, or at an occupation, might not recognize the similar conditions […]
