Recent UFO video compilation

Update: The last two posts (on dying while alive and on processing emotion) reverberated within me together all day, and then I ran across this post, from last August, and it seemed to want to come into view again . . .

HR 645 and recent Ron Paul prediction

Update a few hours later: It just occurred to me that there are lots of reports that FEMA camps have already been established and massive numbers of railroad cars with shackles welded to the floors stockpiled in various places.

What is "Embedded Energy" and why does it matter?

Thanks to Cassandra Legacy and SueM, who alerted me to this wonderful exchange — between Colin Campbell, the inventor of the term “peak oil,” and Ugo Bardi, a professor at the University of Florence in Italy — that both explains the concept of “embedded energy” as “[concretized] eddies in the flow of space and time” […]
