    "World’s most powerful laser fires most powerful laser blast ever"

    "The largest laser system in the world was turned on for a fraction of a second July 5, and it unleashed the most powerful laser blast in history — besting a record set mere months earlier.
    The National Ignition Facility (NIF) — a laser test facility at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in Livermore, Calif. — turned on its 192 laser beams for a scant instant the day after the nation celebrated its birth, unleashing a record-setting 1.85-megajoule blast into a target chamber that delivered more than 500 trillion watts of power.
    Five hundred terawatts is 1,000 times more power than the United States uses at any instant in time, the facility said.

    … “Scientists are taking important steps toward achieving ignition and providing experimental access to user communities for national security, basic science and the quest for clean fusion energy.”

    In fission, atoms are split and the massive energy released is captured. NIF aims for fusion, the ongoing energy process in the sun and other stars where hydrogen and helium nuclei are continually fusing and releasing enormous amounts of energy. In the ignition facility, beams of light converge on pellets of hydrogen isotopes to create a similar, though controlled, micro-explosion …"

    For the tuna lovers!
    "On Sunday a diving team of The Black Fish successfully released hundreds of bluefin tuna back into the Adriatic Sea from cages at a fish farm near the island of Ugljan, Croatia.
    The action is marking the start of a new campaign to highlight the lucrative trade in the endangered bluefin tuna in the Mediterranean Sea. The Black Fish have been working on the ground in Croatia for several weeks investigating. It was three days ago when our crew members witnessed the slaughter of several tuna fish and decided to intervene. Members of our diving team were able to pass by security and entered the water late at night to free the fish. (…)
    The company which owns the tuna farm where the fish were released is called Kali Tuna and is part of the US based company Umami Sustainable Seafood. Umani is a major player in the bluefin tuna industry with operations in US, Mexico and Croatia. The firm went public last year with shareholders from around the world now cashing in on the company's lucrative bluefin tuna trading, which is set to have landed them with over $54.000.000 US in profits last year. With slogans such as 'Aquaculture – Growing to the tune of Mother nature' and 'Keeping Bluefin tuna stocks thriving', the company is keen to portray itself as a 'sustainable' bluefin tuna trader.

    Heroes! Don't eat tuna!

    I know you were trying to be humorous, however, I don’t find any solace in the afterlife. THE Revelation is the last Book in the Bible, and it is a BOOK of WAR, DEATH, PLAGUE AND HORROR. It is so bad that GOD has promised to bless anyone who reads it? I am still waiting for that Blessing??? I still have nightmares!!!

      Chemicals in Personal Care Products — Phthalates — May Increase Risk of Diabetes in Women

      A study lead by researchers from Brigham and Women's Hospital (BWH) shows an association between increased concentrations of phthalates in the body and an increased risk of diabetes in women. Phthalates are endocrine disrupting chemicals that are commonly found in personal care products such as moisturizers, nail polishes, soaps, hair sprays and perfumes. They are also used in adhesives, electronics, toys and a variety of other products.

          I have tried feverishly to limit plastic exposure as I knew the dangers as a young teenager before Nixon was elected. It used to be easier to find paper cups and even paper straws, but I haven't drank from a paper straw since they phased them out in the late 1960s. They are now only collector's items on eBay.

          I carry recycled paper cups I buy from California in thousand lots for my traveling coffee cups and In restaurants. I never use plastic straws or foam cups (styrene is terribly toxic when filled with hot fluids). I try to buy glass storage bowls, never drink plastic sodas or even pour from them. Canned food used to have lead solder… Now they have deadly plastic liners. I avoid as much as possible.

          My plastic blood content is probably 1/3 the typical American. I don't avoid it all, but I try very hard to limit my plastic exposure. It's deadly stuff in my opinion.

          And you're right about the effects on male human reproduction…probably female also. The Romans had lead pipes and lead wine jars…we have plastic. Future Shock madness.

      Actually, I wasn't kidding. I have read Revelation three times, and have studied it twice under a teacher's guidance. It (the title Revelation) means literally the Unveiling of J____ C____. The suffering reflects God's outpouring of wrath, but only upon those who reject "God the Son" (J____).

      That's all I can say here because religious discussion is banned. I'm sorry you found it to be so discouraging. To me, the idea of new heavens and a new earth where every tear will be wiped away and there will be no more suffering, pain, or death is something to look forward to. It certainly isn't our lot here on earth.

      IMHO it's pretty hard to wrap your mind around it w/o studying it in depth and looking at what it meant in the language in which it was written. Yeah, it's pretty ugly looking on the surface.

      You can write to me at HoTaters@hush.com if you'd like to discuss further. I can't post any more on this here because it's technically in violation of new Enenews (Admin) policy.

      It's also OK if you disagree with me. You don't have to see things the way I do. So if you comment further but don't want to take this off-list, that's OK too.

    Thus, the DMAA in supplements could not have originated from the geranium plant.

    "The FDA should regulate and/or ban products in which significant amounts of synthetic pharmacological compounds are added," Armstrong opined. "Also, this information should be clearly labeled — including their effects and possible side effects — so that consumers can make an informed choice.

    Greenpeace Co-Founder Dr. Pat Moore commented on a new study which tries to explain the lack of global warming:

    "The new study claims: ‘Abrupt increase’ in CO2 absorption slowed global warming: Excerpt: ‘The earth would have warmed faster in the last 2 decades had there not been an unexplained rise in the amount of carbon dioxide being absorbed on land, scientists believe.” Scientists have discovered an “abrupt increase” since 1988 in the uptake of carbon dioxide (CO2) by the land biosphere, which comprises all of the planet’s plant & animal ecosystems…the breakthrough had taken scientists “completely by surprise”…[study] explains how much CO2 is absorbed by plants & animals, with some of the CO2 then being passed from plants into the land.”

    Ecologist Dr. Moore pulled no punches in commenting on the new study: “These people are either completely naive about the relationship between CO2 & plants or they are making this up as a way of deflecting attention from the lack of warming for the past 15 years.” Moore is the author of “Confessions of a Greenpeace Dropout: The Making of a Sensible Environmentalist,” in which he exposes the green movement & explains why he left the organization.

        As I understand it, arc, the anthropogenic global warming meme was the bright idea of the Club of Rome insiders, to provide plausible cause to further restrict, tax, and regulate us and invade our privacy.

        Way back when, I was a 'true believer' in anthropogenic global warming.

        One problem is that the ecology movement (which also started out as a very positive and necessary thing) has been captured and co-opted by – guess who? – the biggest wasters and despoilers of the planet and its resources.

    ~SIGN NOW to put Bankers behind bars~ http://www.avaaz.org/en/bankers_behind_bars_f/?bgAmwab&v=16032

    Big banks have been caught in a massive scam to rig global interest rates, ripping off millions of people on their mortgages, student loans and more! We'd go to jail for this, but Barclays bank has only been fined, and just a fraction of their profits! Outrage is mounting — this is our chance to finally turn the tide of the banks' reign over our democracies.

    The EU finance regulator, Michel Barnier is standing up to the powerful bank lobby and championing reform that would put bankers behind bars for fraud like this. If the EU goes first, accountability could quickly spread across the globe. But the banks are lobbying hard against it, and we need a massive surge of people power to drive these reforms through.

    "High-tech hippie trail"
    _________________

    S Sorrensen | 12th July 2012 3:27 PM

    THE vision for a new tourist walk through Nimbin encompasses the concepts of solar power, local anecdotes, historical footage and new technologies.

    With more than 100,000 young backpackers visiting Nimbin each year, Lismore City Council is now investigating the feasibility of the Nimbin Walking Track, which will incorporate interactive storytelling to promote the village's colourful history.

    "Our young visitors want to learn about communities, see and learn about Nimbin's alternative culture, its innovation, its history and its ethos," Andrew Walker from Nimbin Tourism said. "More and more backpackers access everything via their smartphones. This project presents the perfect opportunity to teach people from all over the world about creativity, community, talent, tolerance and alternative life… Nimbin-style!"

    "The Rainbow Power Company's been growing for 25 years and they're justifiably proud of all the work they've initiated here in Nimbin, that has spread around the country and across the world.

    "I was also very interested in other developments, too – like the solar farm project – it's a model for a local initiative which can be used to power community buildings, child care centres, and swimming pools."

      @bleep: got to work real early one morning and discovered a massive set of con-trails running in parallel to each other, from the western horizon to apogee. You could tell they weren't the usual condensation trails from jets but thick bilious trails. I got pictures of them. What I found most interesting was that they're being produced at nighttime…while we're asleep!

        Interesting, Aftershock – thanks for posting this.

        Yes, I've concluded that they are being sneaky in their chem-trail application program here in Hawaii, because of wanting to protect the tourist industry & preserve Hawaii's 'pristine nature haven' image. (also not publicized are the du ammo practice pollution & huge military presence, etc.)

        I notice only a few chem-trails visible in the Hon. area, but one day I went up to the No. Shore with a friend visiting from the Mainland, & up on the plateau saw some chem trails, & on the North Shore saw some of those weird 'mammatus' clouds, that, due, I believe, to the wind sculpting these 'heavier' clouds – heavy due to their particulate matter content – assume these strange, & novel, weirdly sculpted shapes.

        It gave me a 'creepy' feeling… creepiest part being that of all the happy tourists & locals out on the beach that day on the legendary North Shore, I was probably the only one who knew what they were.

        I've read that these clouds are now officially recognized in the realm of cloud nomenclature as a 'new' kind of cloud… but the story of how, after all these millenia, there has come to be a 'new kind of cloud,' is not touched upon…

        Also, from Kaka'ako Park in Hon. around sunset I've many times seen distant parallel lines of fading chemtrails off to the west, sometimes tinted pink & gold by the setting sun.

        On U-tube, people from Maui have posted pix of chemtrails.

          Regarding the clouds. My girl and I were pondering how they're now hiding them in the cloudy overcast. One day, they were crossing at forty-five degrees to one another in an obvious matrix. There's no way you could claim they were the result of con-trails, as the flight paths were purposely overlapping. Scary-cool…

    Worst drought in 50 years could last through October

    Forecasters at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Climate Prediction Center were unable to assure growers that there is an end to the drought in sight. In the meantime, grain prices have skyrocketed.

One recent afternoon I was watching the thunderheads build, as I have done many times in my life, and hoping for rain. They (I don't know who "they" are) had been spraying chemtrails for about seven or eight straight days. The thunderheads would look as though they would rise to an enormous level and then collapse and make rain. But, I noticed they would stop when they reached the layer where the chemtrails had been, and begin to slide off sideways. The chemtrails prevented the cumulo-nimbus clouds from rising. I observed this happening several times and got my camera and took time lapse pictures. Since then, I have noticed that these clouds cannot build high enough to cause rain–they slide off and dissipate every time when they reach the chemtrail layer.

      What I have taken away from this realization is that the drought is caused by what amounts to an invisible net which prevents the clouds from building up. So, as long as they are spraying, we will get no rain. If anyone knows why they are spraying, please enlighten me.

    Recommended books, and question. Please add to the list of books here, all are welcome to do so.

    2 eatliesandie and Ed Ward, M.D.

    Have you read the books, A Pillar of Iron, by Taylor Caldwell ?
    Captains and the Kings ?
    The Prize ?
    The House of Morgan ?

    Highly recommend all of these.

    Dr. Ward, would you please point out where you proved Thermate (or was it Thermite) was NOT used at the WTC?

    Are you familiar with Architects and Engineers for 9/11 truth? How is it you came to a different conclusion?

      BTW, Dr. Ward, I take some of Rense's info. with a grain of salt. Some of it is very credible, but I want citations, citations, citations for everything. Just a personal hangup of mine.

      You posted some great links with the article on the lead coverings on the radiation badges. Thanks. The Ingbjorg Bunnlaughsdottr's info. was great. Thank you.

      Would just like to suggest you put a "teaser" with your comments, along with whatever your main comment. Then please post here. IMHO, more people will see it in the long run, and it will help keep you from getting your comments Reported. Have been here over a year, and unfortunately people get into arguments from time to time. Then often people get banned. Whether or not they have deserved is a matter of debate (and I refrain from judgment).

      I'm very open to looking at things like what you posted, but people tend to be turned off by some things. (I try to see things from several different persepctives.)

      Over all, I "get" what you're saying. There is much more to current events than meets the eye. Esp. if one looks at things from an historical perspective ….

      And this coming from someone who, until 2001, had been sidetracked into a strongly Republican (even Neo-Con brainwashed) point of view for about 10 years ….

          And Dr. Ed, I'm the chief of sinners when it comes to "rants." Have posted very critical things similar to what you said, on many occasions in the past. Have decided to tone it down to "keep peace." And sometimes it takes a long time before a person "wakes up." I was one of those sleep walkers.

      Hi Ho.(hehehe) Haven't read any of those. I struggle to find much time to complete a book. I just pick up bits and pieces of info from all over the place and join the dots, usually subconscious.

    Dear Folks,
    Got a chance to catch up with you. Thank you for all you do, and for sharing your brilliance here on ENENews. I feel safe here as I keep trying to accept these facts as you all present them.
    For all the folks who come here every day, it takes a lot of courage. Most of the people in our lives just can't hear or grasp what we try to. This compounds the tragedy for us. Yet, because ENENews exists, and has perservered …like-minded persons meet (as diverse as we all might be!).
    Just wanted to thank and celebrate you all. As you know, my heart weeps, especially regarding children and the impotence of healthcare.
    So, on this Sunday …thank you 'Bread & Butter' for your link to the hang drums :) And, this is for you 'Heart of the Rose' -belated Happy Birthday :)
    Aloha to all …peace.

        Dear Arclight,
        Thank you. A feral-born. Accepted into a home. I've had cats before as pets, but raised w/kids and family in the home. This was very unexpected and traumatic.
        Major antibiotics, analgesics.
        Funny thing is, friend's grandchildren visiting soon.
        Hey, thanks for all you do here!
        I'm back now to 'shake and shout' the medical comatose.

        Dear Arclight,
        To answer your question, holding cat, yowl and injury. Thought was a scratch. Composed, took cat by nape of neck & placed him on outside doorstep. Washed & excused myself. Once home, cleansed wound w/betadine. Did wet to dry dressings all night. Next morning eye swollen shut (he bit me right above my rt medial eyebrow), swelling going to other side of face …& pain.
        I am so thankful for the wonderful medical care I received.
        Aloha …carry on all :)

      Just saw MSNBC's Brian Williams deliver the news of Dr. Sally Ride's death today.

      No mention of her family survivors… Perhaps because her significant other for the past 27 years was a woman. Shame on you MSNBC! Homophobe Scumbags!

      SP: A hero to millions of Americans of both genders, Ride leaves behind her partner of 27 years, Tam O’Shaughnessy.

      Tam…I hope you find peace after Sally's long painful illness. My condolences.

    My fifth great grandchild was born last week. She was 6 weeks premature. She stopped breathing in the nursery once. I don't know the details. She is breathing again. She has to go five days without another incident before being sent home. She weighed 4 lb. 14.7 oz. at birth. They aren't using a heat lamp anymore.

    Reality Check has a tremendous amount to radiation remedial information..as well as mirroring alot of data..that goes through here at Enenews…as well as ability to chat..which through time will become more and more important.

    The Great Destroyer
    Barack Obama's War On the Republic.

    I suggest it..people need to understand clearly what this President is has done..and has plans for.

    Speaking of debacle..Someday he will go down as one of America's greatest.

      I will read that book. And here's a recommendation for you if you have not already read it:

      Prouty, L. Fletcher
      The Secret Team, The CIA and its Allies in Control of the United States and the World.

      First published in the early 70s and recently republished in 2011 with minor changes. 509 pages and a dense read but well worth it.

    ..The thing about Heart (me)..is that am not easily impressed.
    So I don't care if they are the president of the United States or the Yakuza.
    I don't care how official the title or how wealthy and connected people are.
    Titles are meaningless..all I see.. are those..that are harming the people.
    I won't be swayed in any manner…other than a soft sway.. to a song of freedom.
