sustainable living, alternative energy, the Kingdom of Hawaii, art,
a world class circus, an Indian dance performance, light show,
guest speakers, healthy food, clowns, comedy, fire spinning, face

at that time, we invite you coming to this excellent and festive
orientation which will highlight the word "unity" in community.

I have lived in several places around the world and have been sending

[In memoriam - from the Archives] Prof. Marlene Dobkin de Rios interview – "Ayahuasca, Panacea or Epidemic?" – #027 By Jan Irvin "I had emailed with Prof. de Rios a few months ago and she had informed me of her cancer and ongoing chemotherapy. Today I’ve been informed by Prof. John Hoopes that she has succumbed to her cancer. Originally released April 19, 2009. RIP, Marlene. Her last email to me read"
Interview with Psilocybin Solution author Simon G. Powell. "...I found myself divining some kind of purposeful intelligence intrinsic to both life and the evolutionary process that engineers life. These notions of ‘natural intelligence’ filled my inner world and continued to grow unchecked despite the contrary opinions of esteemed thinkers like Richard Dawkins. I thus found myself becoming more and more alienated from scientific orthodoxy, which sees evolution as a totally dumb and mindless process. When you hold the opposing view thatlife is a kind of intelligent technology built by an intelligent nature, the social consequences can be crippling."

The Dream Shaman of Switzerland. If you want to know what a dream shaman of the West would be like, consider Carl Jung, as he is now revealed in his Red Book. He harvested the material for The Red Book -- which, with its fine calligraphy and vivid illustrations and decorative features, resembles a medieval illuminated manuscript -- from the journals and "black books" he kept during the years of his "confrontation with the unconscious," when he walked the razor's edge between madness and genius.
Richard Dawkins accused of cowardice for refusing to debate existence of God. Richard Dawkins has made his name as the scourge of organised religion who branded the Roman Catholic Church "evil" and once called the Pope "a leering old villain in a frock".

Pot Arrest Every 42 Seconds in the US
Marijuana legalization victories could be short-lived."This is a symbolic victory for (legalization) advocates, but it will be short-lived," Kevin Sabet, a former adviser to the Obama administration's drug czar, told reporters. Votes making Colorado and Washington the first U.S. states to legalize marijuana for recreational use could be short-lived victories for pot backers because the federal government will fight them.
Jim Fadiman: Researcher in the Sky with Diamonds: The trajectory of his multifaceted career started in a Paris café in 1961, when his favorite Harvard professor offered him two pills of the chemical that puts the magic in magic mushrooms, turning his world around.

Literary Review:
‘Plants of the Gods’ by Richard Evans Schultes, Albert Hofmann and Christian Rätsch
John Lennon wrote Tomorrow Never Knows in January 1966, with lyrics adapted from the book The Psychedelic Experience: A Manual Based on the Tibetan Book of the Dead by Timothy Leary, Richard Alpert, and Ralph Metzner, which in turn was adapted from the Tibetan Book of the Dead. George Harrison and Paul McCartney confirmed this, stating that they and Lennon had visited the newly opened Indica bookshop — Lennon was looking for a copy of The Portable Nietzsche — and Lennon had found a copy of The Psychedelic Experience that contained the lines: "When in doubt, relax, turn off your mind, float downstream"

Zionists argue that Arabs have no real reason to be in Palestine - they can be just as happy somewhere else and should leave.
Bomb Iran? No. Bomb Gaza? Yes!
Launching a war, for the IDF, is child's play. Tel Aviv just had to kill a few Palestinian civilians like the dangerous soccer terrorist -- and send in some extra tanks.

Presidential Elections:
Powerful "Special Interest Groups" Won Again. The election was about nothing except who gets to serve the interest groups. The wars were not an issue in the election.

The unconstitutional powers asserted by the executive branch to detain citizens indefinitely without due process and to assassinate them on suspicion alone were not an issue in the election. The sacrifice of the natural environment to timber, mining, and energy interests was not an issue, except to promise more sacrifice of the environment to short-term profits. Out of one side of the mouth came the nonsense promise of restoring the middle class while from the other side of the mouth issued defenses of the off shoring of their jobs and careers as free trade. The inability to acknowledge and to debate real issues is a threat not only to the United States but also to the entire world

Californians, So Easily Intimidated.
"What a field day for Monsanto, come to California and intimidate voters into doing exactly what they are told to do. Amazing, great job by the world's most ruthless corporations." It started with a simple question and a simple answer. Do the people of California have the right to know if the food products they are buying contain Genetically Modified (GM) food products? The answer on September 27th was Yes, by a 2 to 1 margin. But six weeks later on November 6th, it went down to defeat by a 47% to 53% margin. How? Fear, intimidation, ignorance and lack of resolve on the part of the people of the state of California. Yes, the corporations with a vested interest in defeating Prop 37 where able to marshal a 44 million dollar war chest, and they could have spent 44 million more had they chosen to do so. But the people of California failed to stand their ground, failed to defend their right to know what is in the food they are buying.
Did Under-educated Californians Vote to Give their Kids Cancer or Did Monsanto Rig the Vote? Pre-election polls showed that California Proposition 37 was heading for a sizable victory. Monsanto, a corporation whose products kill, saw a fortune sliding away and engaged in campaign of lies and fraud to defeat the proposition. Did the fraud extend to vote rigging or do Californians want plausible deniability as they poison their kids?

Green Party candidate Jill Stein and Libertarian Party candidate Gary Johnson.
The two candidates gave their take on international issues and foreign policy. Stein opened the debate by answering a question about the economy and the outsourcing of American jobs. She asserted that that while some might blame companies like Mitt Romney's firm Bain Capital, President Barack Obama is equally responsible for jobs being sent overseas while wages are driven down at home. Stein said that foreign aid must be changed from present policy, which mostly consists of arms deals."Foreign aid," Johnson said, "is poor people in this country giving money to rich people in foreign countries. It goes to prop up dictatorships that have American interests at heart."

PUNMASTER MUSIC NEWS:
Rare John Lennon letter to Eric Clapton up for auction
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - John Lennon held out the promise he could bring out more musical greatness in legendary guitarist Eric Clapton in a letter that could fetch as much as $30,000 when it is sold at auction next month, the organizers of the sale said on Monday.
The signed, hand-written letter by the Beatle, who died in 1980 at the age of 40, is one of a selection from some of the world's great musicians that will go under the hammer in Los Angeles at the Profiles in History auction on December 18.
In a draft letter dated September 29, 1971, Lennon expressed his respect and admiration for British guitarist Clapton and suggested that they form a band together.
"Eric, I know I can bring out something great, in fact greater in you that had been so far evident in your music. I hope to bring out the same kind of greatness in all of us, which I know will happen if/when we get together," Lennon wrote in the letter.
The letter will hold special significance for Beatles fans as auctioneer Joe Maddalena said it was widely known that there were problems in the Fab Four's relationships with each other, and that Clapton had almost become a Beatle.
Clapton played in the Plastic Ono Band, formed by Lennon and Yoko Ono in 1969 before the breakup of the Beatles in 1970. He also played on the George Harrison song "While My Guitar Gently Weeps", which was on the Beatles' White Album.
"There was a point in time when George Harrison thought about leaving the band and his replacement was Clapton, so this letter is a link of what could have been," Maddalena said.
