All in the Family
It has long been known in ‘conspiracy’ circles, that the public faces of the power elite are all blood relations, and that keeping it all in the family seems to be the authoritarian rule of thumb.
Burke’s Peerage, which has tracked the power elites genealogy over the centuries, is rarely wrong in its predictions concerning the outcome of presidential elections. Its only criteria for choosing the winning candidate being, which person up for the job of President has the most Royal bloodline. Amazingly they usually get it right!
So what does that tell you about the power structure of the world, and the validity of apparently “free” elections? And what about the tall tale that any U.S. citizen who works hard and stays focused can become the President of the United States?
Sadly, even when the truth of the situation is staring you right in the face, most people will continue to look right past it, as BridgeAnne d’Avignon a 7th grader from Watsonville California, has just discovered. BridgeAnne and her grandfather, an avid genealogist, are apparently the first to discovered that President Obama is related to every U.S. President and linked directly back to John “Lackland” Plantagenet, a king of England and signer of the Magna Carta.
BridgeAnne’s research was enough to make the local news and the Internet, but the far broader implications of her findings will be completely overlooked by all. Implications that clearly paint a picture that ALL major elections are nothing more than theater, all designed to give the powerless the brief feeling of power.

The Rich ‘may evolve into separate species’
An interesting report has just hit the web concerning the bottom two percent of humanity, or the people with all the money. Did I just say bottom? Hmm I suppose it all depends of your point of view. Anyway, the report from futurologist Paul Saffo and written up in the UK’s Telegraph, speculates that the “Rich” may over time evolve in to a completely separate species; although some may speculate that this in fact has already happened, due to advances in life extending technologies and medical treatments.
Future people will be able to grow their own replacement organs, take specially tailored drugs, and use genetic research tools to alert them from any possible hereditary health dangers.
Tomorrow’s world will be a fusion of biology and technology, where robots do the chores, cars drive themselves and artificial limbs are better than real ones.
And all no doubt for a price tag that places these “improvements” firmly out of the reach of the common man…

Globally, Religion has changed. Or has it?
I view truly religious people as very rare, and culturally religious people as very common. What does that mean? A new report released by the University of Chicago, which presents “the most comprehensive analysis to date of global religious trends.” report, that seems to speak at cross-purposes concerning the worlds religious beliefs, and provides no clear answers as to the current religious structure of the world.
“Religious change around the world is a complex phenomenon,” the report begins, in an almost comic understatement. “No simple description such as secularization, religious revival, or believing without belonging captures the complexity of the process.”
… so the world is more religious, but not really?
The United States, as often noted, remains unusually religious among advanced industrial nations. Nearly 6 out of 10 Americans pray one or more times each day; high percentages report feeling close to God, experiencing God’s presence or guidance on most days. Faith in God, they say, is “very important” in their lives.
But…
Nonetheless, belief in God has slipped a little, and more Americans, though still believing, acknowledge some uncertainty about God’s existence.
Confused?

Sabotage from the Future?
The Large Hadron Collider just can’t seem to catch a break, and has had nothing but bad luck in its search for the elusive Higgs boson particle. The Collider has had so much bad luck in fact, that scientists are beginning to look into the realms of sabotage as a cause for the multiple problems that have plagued the project from its start. But this is not sabotage in the normal sense of the word, as scientists are seriously beginning to look at the future as a possible cause.
Could it be that someone or something from the future or another dimension, is deliberately trying to prevent the discovery of the Higgs boson particle?
“It must be our prediction that all Higgs producing machines shall have bad luck,” Dr. Nielsen said in an e-mail message. In an unpublished essay, Dr. Nielson said of the theory, “Well, one could even almost say that we have a model for God.” It is their guess, he went on, “that He rather hates Higgs particles, and attempts to avoid them.”
While the project scientists admit that this theory sounds a little strange to say the least, they also admit that it is a possibility.
While it is a paradox to go back in time and kill your grandfather, physicists agree there is no paradox if you go back in time and save him from being hit by a bus. In the case of the Higgs and the collider, it is as if something is going back in time to keep the universe from being hit by a bus. Although just why the Higgs would be a catastrophe is not clear. If we knew, presumably, we wouldn’t be trying to make one.

Brain-Computer Interface: Telepathy
New research from the University of Southampton has demonstrated that it is possible for communication from person to person through the power of thought — with the help of electrodes, a computer and Internet connection.
Dr James comments: “Whilst Brain-Computer Interfacing (BCI) is no longer a new thing and person to person communication via the nervous system was shown previously in work by Professor Kevin Warwick from the University of Reading, here we show, for the first time, true brain to brain interfacing.

Political Hand Signals..?
It seems that the more things change, the more they stay the same. President Obama has now been photographed displaying the “Mano Cornuto” or Satanic Salute, and along with the rest of the worlds power elite, who make a point of publicly displaying this hand gesture, signals that the agenda can continue without pause.
When Ex-President Bush Jr was photographed on multiple occasions displaying this hand signal, he publicly stated that he was just showing his support for the Texas Longhorns.
Well I guess everyone listed below are also fans of that football team…

Executive compensation vs. Minimum Wage
“If there was hope, it must lie in the Proles because only there – in those swarming disregarded masses – could the force to destroy the Party ever be generated. …The Proles, if only they could somehow become conscious of their own strength. …They needed only to rise up and shake themselves like a horse shaking off flies. …Surely sooner or later it must occur to them to do it?” – George Orwell’s 1984

Mapping the 7 Deadly Sins
We’re gluttons for infographics, and a team at Kansas State just served up a feast: maps of sin created by plotting per-capita stats on things like theft (envy) and STDs (lust). Christian clergy, likely noting the Bible Belt’s status as Wrath Central, question the “science.” Valid point—or maybe it’s just the pride talking.
