  Wireless Data From Every Lightbulb
Posted by: Nerb - 04-04-2024, 02:39 PM - Forum: Science & Technology - Replies (2)

I've had this bookmarked for years because I never trusted the technology in the first place.

How much this has evolved and in who's hands is a guess. I also wonder if there is a way to reverse the science to see/record what happens in the light of one of these systems.

The fact that this hasn't been offered with some kind of commercial slant today leads me to believe it's something to be wary of in our everyday lives, not for everything but under certain circumstances and locations.

No embed available but here's the link. It's a "TED Talk" from 2011 with 2.7 million views....

I struggled to wonder which forum to post this in, and then it seemed obvious.

Space isn't something limited only to looking up or out.

I remember this little movie as a kid and it blew my little mind. It's been travelling like this ever since and will never stop.

"This film probes the infinite magnitude of space, and its reverse, the ultimate minuteness of matter. Animation art and animation camera achieve this journey to the farthest conceivable point of the universe and then into the tiniest particle of existence--an atom of a living human cell--with a freshness and clarity that would seem impossible with other means of exposition.
Directed by Eva Szasz - 1968"

Enjoy.

  A crime in Turkey... Was it just too easy?
Posted by: Maxmars - 04-03-2024, 09:21 PM - Forum: Crime - No Replies

I recently came upon an article... written in the vaguest terms possible, about a man who downloaded a couple of billions of dollars' worth of cryptocurrency on a thumb drive, and then slipped town.  I was wondering, because of the lack of 'reporting' detail (dates, times, etc.) if perhaps it was just a story for entertainment... but then I found more searching around ...

I though the tale... amended by the narrative I had just read, made for an interesting exercise in making it unclear as to whose narrative I should believe... the one hashed out in story-telling fashion, or the journalistic article I found later...

Join me...

From: HITB SecNews: He Emptied an Entire Crypto Exchange Onto a Thumb Drive. Then He Disappeared
 


... At 5:57 pm on April 20, 2021, the guard stamped his Turkish passport and Özer shuffled through the crowd to Gate C, a flash drive containing a rumored $2 billion in crypto stashed in his belongings.

After Özer’s plane reached Tirana, Albania, at 9:24 that night, he checked into the Mondial, a popular 4-star business hotel in the capital’s commercial district. A couple of days later, he looked at his social media accounts. A mob was very angry with him: Customers couldn’t access their money on the exchange Thodex, where he was founder and CEO, and people were accusing him of absconding with their funds...


He was the CEO of the company, Thodex—which had almost half a million investors and $500 million in daily trade volume.  A wonder that any one person could just 'take it' and run.

It's a short read, and when you're finished... here's the latest article I was able to cull from the internet.

From TurkishMinute.com: New indictment seeks up to 11,462 years in prison for crypto currency boss
 

Turkish prosecutors are seeking a prison sentence of up to 11,462 years in a new indictment against Faruk Fatih Özer, the former CEO of collapsed cryptocurrency exchange Thodex, for crimes including fraud, the state-run Anadolu news agency reported.

Özer, 30, was already handed down an 11,196-year sentence years by a high criminal court in İstanbul in September.

He was extradited from Albania to Turkey in April, stood trial on charges of managing a criminal organization, aggravated fraud and money laundering, of which he was convicted.



I'm sure that I will never know the full details... but the description in the narrative seems out-of-sync with the 'criminal organization' boss, committing fraud and laundering money.  Why do sense this to be a legalistic endeavor to inflate fury to more easily punish someone for betrayal of confidence?

I found this YouTube video from 60 Minutes. 



It's pretty intriguing. I've been interested in this since it started being reported on. I believe that either the Russians or Chinese governments are behind this. What's really scary is that they can do this to pretty much anyone, anywhere. Even where the President of the United States is. There was an attack in Vietnam where Vice President Kamala Harris was.

  Last Time a Giant X Formed Over America By Two Solar Eclipses
Posted by: FlyersFan - 04-03-2024, 07:55 AM - Forum: Fragile Earth - No Replies

I posted this at ATS, thought I'd post the same article here.

Back in 1806/1811, the same thing happened then that is happening now.  Two solar eclipses forming a giant X over America and over the New Madrid fault line.  Last time, three months after the X was formed, the New Madrid get extremely active, so active that the earthquakes made the Mississippi river run backwards.  Back then there was even a comet in the mix, Tecumseh’s Comet, just as this time there is a comet, the Devil Comet.

So ... do you think History will repeat itself?   Two eclipses forming a giant X, two comets - one carrying a curse name and the other named for the devil himself.  All over the New Madrid fault line.  Or do you think it's a nothingburger and 'just another eclipse'?  

What Happened The Last Time Two Eclipses Formed A Giant X Over New Madrid Fault Zone

Quote:Could it be possible that history is about to repeat itself?  On April 8th, the Great American Eclipse of 2024 will complete the giant “X” over America that the Great American Eclipse of 2017 started.  Meanwhile, the Devil Comet will be racing through our solar system for the first time in 71 years.  Most of you already know all this.  But what is not widely known is that we have seen this same pattern before.  In 1811, a solar eclipse finished the giant “X” over the heartland of America that a solar eclipse in 1806 had started, and meanwhile Tecumseh’s Comet was making headlines all over the nation as it raced through the heavens.  Approximately three months after the giant “X” over America was completed, cataclysmic earthquakes began erupting along the New Madrid fault.

Quote:A remarkable total solar eclipse crossed the entire continental United States from the west coast to the east coast on June 16th, 1806… That was the first half of the giant “X” over America in the early 1800s. The second half was formed by the path of a “ring of fire” solar eclipse that took place on September 17th, 1811. The paths of those two eclipses intersected in the vicinity of Cleveland, Ohio… Approximately three months after the eclipse of 1811 completed the giant “X” over America, the New Madrid fault zone started to go absolutely nuts. To this day, we have never seen earthquakes of such destructive power in the continental United States…According to the USGS, at one point the geography of the region became so distorted by seismic activity that the Mississippi River actually began to flow backwards temporarily…

  Harold Holt
Posted by: BeTheGoddess - 04-03-2024, 07:23 AM - Forum: The Cold War - No Replies

I have been wondering where to post this, and decided Cold War would be the bast fit, mods move if not ok.

Harold Holt was the Prime Minister of Australia in 1966/7, and he was an avid spearfisherman--right up until his disapearence, but lets not get ahead of ourselves.

Holt ended what was known as "the white Australia Policy", which was a major change in the demographics of Australia, and spoke of a "cultural melting pot".

He also wanted to take Australia out of Vietnam, which kinda put him in an awkward diplomatic position.

Anyway he "drowns" while spearfishing and his body never recovered.

A disinfo campaign tried to spread roumers he was kidnaped by a Chinese submarine, while other goups claimed it was the CIA and US subs, you can blame aliens if you want, he was gone. 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harold_Holt

One of Holts Legacys was having a joint AU-US military based named after him in Western Australia's north west, and one of the bases functions...

Quote: The station is operated and maintained by the Australian Department of Defence on behalf of Australia and the United States and provides very low frequency (VLF) radio transmission to United States Navy, Royal Australian Navy and allied ships and submarines in the western Pacific Ocean and eastern Indian Ocean.[sup][1][/sup]
 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naval_Comm...ld_E._Holt

Communicating with subs? it sounds like a bad joke...

But the bad joke is some folk think its a HAARP type array there--its not.

  Global Warming & Respiratory Infections and Heath Care
Posted by: Waterglass - 04-03-2024, 05:34 AM - Forum: Health - Replies (9)

My personal experience with annual respiratory lung infections as a result of allergic reactions to pollen.


I transferred over from the old school as I was invited by several members and Mods. I wrote some threads on my Covid-19 vaccine jab in September 2021 that I felt like I was going to die. I was later to find out by my PHD Professor brother that feeling ill was a great thing as it meant that my immune system was in great shape, functional and protecting me.

That sounds weird doesn’t it but after he explained I get it. He said that older people typically don’t react to the jab because their immune systems are shot as a result of age. That many of these will receive a jab that actually provides NO protection for them. It’s not a conspiracy it’s just that it would be cost prohibitive as to determine just who has a functional immune system.

I am sort of off topic as this is about my respiratory issues which arise annually as a result of increased pollen. That IMO seems to coincide with a warmer environment. This year in 2024 my lungs are infected so I thought that I would just get a 10 day sleeve of whatever’s from my doctor and that would fix me up as in years past. Nope, not this year.

I just returned from the doctor and he had me get a jab in the arse. The vial was the size of a crayon. That’s a first time ever for me. In addition to that needle a sleeve of [5] antibiotic pills @ a cost of $2 each and a new inhaler. The inhaler is called Dulera. My cost is $137.91. Yikes!!!!!!!!!!! So I looked it up to buy with various coupons. With a coupon it averages around $356 as in wow.

So what the deal? Cost, and I can’t breathe at night and my lungs sound like a harmonica. They make so much noise I wake up at 1:00am. So for the last 7 days I have averaged 3 hours of sleep a day. No, I can’t take a nap as once I am up I am up. I am also a useless adult as I am beat. So do nothing and what? Eventually succumb to an infection and die? No, that happened last year when I was bitten by a Brown Recluse Spider? The sleeves of antibiotics was so strong it blew out my immune system which is now below the low end of normal so I am now at risk.

In my opinion the world is getting warmer. I don’t care to argue about it but it is in my opinion as I live in it. So do you. We are in South Carolina. Maps of the state from the early 1800's delineate that the lowlands are "sickly". It went on to state that many in the summer months die from respiratory ailments. It’s spelled out right on the map from over 200 years ago. The lowlands are the coastal lands along the Atlantic Ocean and go inland about 100 miles.

I live in the Midlands, the center of the state near the capital, Columbia.

I worked my entire life for publically traded corporations and my earning were documented on a W2. In brief there wasn’t much I could do to game or cheat the tax system in the USA. I did my part, paid my taxes and worked.

Now I pay into a system which I feel is fair to me from a health care perspective. However that’s my perspective as I read many stories of others in that same system who say otherwise.

I don’t know so what say you?

  Reverse Searches - How big data serves "The Man"
Posted by: Maxmars - 04-03-2024, 02:26 AM - Forum: General Conspiracies - Replies (2)

This article is not for those who shy away from paranoia...

I've heard many people crowing about how they don't care if mega businesses have collected vast amounts of data about them.  Usually, their dismissal relates to their inability to see how that data might possibly have any meaningful value or represent any realistic danger at all.

I don't bother trying to justify my concerns, and usually just allow them the luxury of considering me paranoid.  Life's easier that way.

From TechCrunch: ‘Reverse’ searches: The sneaky ways that police tap tech companies for your private data
 


U.S. police departments are increasingly relying on a controversial surveillance practice to demand large amounts of users’ data from tech companies, with the aim of identifying criminal suspects.

So-called “reverse” searches allow law enforcement and federal agencies to force big tech companies, like Google, to turn over information from their vast stores of user data. These orders are not unique to Google — any company with access to user data can be compelled to turn it over — but the search giant has become one of the biggest recipients of police demands for access to its databases of users’ information.

For example, authorities can demand that a tech company turn over information about every person who was in a particular place at a certain time based on their phone’s location, or who searched for a specific keyword or query. Thanks to a recently disclosed court order, authorities have shown they are able to scoop up identifiable information on everyone who watched certain YouTube videos.



Our collection of government agencies has a long history of 'fishing' for crime (perhaps they can't find any crime otherwise) by scouring huge chunks of data, collected 'incidentally' by data mega companies like Google, Yahoo, Microsoft, etc.  So rather than spend time, money, and resources actually investigating ... they opt to 'demand' the data from service providers... who generally don't say "no" to their requests.
 

A recently unsealed search application filed in a Kentucky federal court last year revealed that prosecutors wanted Google to “provide records and information associated with Google accounts or IP addresses accessing YouTube videos for a one week period, between January 1, 2023, and January 8, 2023.”

The search application said that as part of an undercover transaction, the suspected money launderer shared a YouTube link with investigators, and investigators sent back two more YouTube links. The three videos — which TechCrunch has seen and have nothing to do with money laundering — collectively racked up about 27,000 views at the time of the search application. Still, prosecutors sought an order compelling Google to share information about every person who watched those three YouTube videos during that week, likely in a bid to narrow down the list of individuals to their top suspect, who prosecutors presumed had visited some or all of the three videos.

This particular court order was easier for law enforcement to obtain than a traditional search warrant because it sought access to connection logs about who accessed the videos, rather than the higher-standard search warrant that courts can use to demand that tech companies turn over the contents of someone’s private messages.

The Kentucky federal court approved the search order under seal, blocking its public release for a year. Google was barred from disclosing the demand until last month when the court’s order expired...

“The government is essentially dragooning YouTube into serving as a honeypot for the feds to ensnare a criminal suspect by triangulating on who’d viewed the videos in question during a specific time period,” said Pfefferkorn, speaking about the recent order targeting YouTube users. “But by asking for information on everyone who’d viewed any of the three videos, the investigation also sweeps in potentially dozens or hundreds of other people who are under no suspicion of wrongdoing, just like with reverse search warrants for geolocation.”

Law enforcement might defend the surveillance-gathering technique for its uncanny ability to catch even the most elusive suspected criminals. But plenty of innocent people have been caught up in these investigative dragnets by mistake — in some cases as criminal suspects — simply by having phone data that appears to place them near the scene of an alleged crime.



The article makes one statement that I must protest...
 

Some companies choose not to store user data and others scramble the data so it can’t be accessed by anyone other than the user. That prevents companies from turning over access to data that they don’t have or cannot access — especially when laws change from one day to the next, such as when the U.S. Supreme Court overturned the constitutional right to access abortion.


The characterization of abortion access as a "constitutional right" does not stand scrutiny.  Not that I want to get into that can of worms... but casually inserting it into this article shows the true effect of "activist journalism" engendering tropes that are not correct (as well as detracting from the point of the article.)

  Taiwan hit by 7.5 Earthquake

This must have happened quite recently, as the report I read didn't even bother to specify a time...

From FOX: Powerful earthquake rocks Taiwan, buildings seen collapsed, causes tsunami warning in Japan
Subtitled: Buildings were seen shaken off their foundations following the quake, which was given a 7.5, according to the U.S. Geological Survey
 


An earthquake rocked the entire island of Taiwan early Wednesday, collapsing buildings in a southern city and sparking a brief tsunami warning for southern Japanese islands.


It must have been terribly frightening...

The U.S. National Tsunami Warning Center initially said it was reviewing the earthquake to determine whether there was a tsunami threat to the West Coast states of California, Oregon, Washington as well as Alaska and the Canadian province of British Columbia. 

Japan

"Tsunami NOT expected," the agency posted on X minutes later. 

Hawaii's Emergency Management Agency also said there was no tsunami threat to the state. 

The quake was believed to be the biggest in Taiwan since a temblor in 1999 caused extensive damage.

  Bird flu (H5N1) in Cows transmitted to humans
Posted by: Maxmars - 04-02-2024, 01:25 PM - Forum: Diseases & Pandemics - Replies (2)

Bird flu confirmed in person who had contact with infected dairy cows
 


A person in the US has contracted bird flu from infected dairy cows in Texas. This is the first confirmed case of a subtype of the virus, named H5N1, transmitting between a human and another mammal.
...
Last week, cows across five US states – Texas, Kansas, Michigan, New Mexico and Idaho – tested positive for H5N1. It is unclear how they became sick, but it now seems that the virus may be spreading among the animals, according to the US Department of Agriculture.



As it turns out, the advice is don't handle or drink raw milk.
 

Previously, mammals had only been confirmed to contract the virus from sick birds. “There have been a couple of outbreaks that didn’t include humans where it is possible there was mammal-to-mammal transmission,” says Richard Webby at St. Jude Children’s Hospital in Tennessee. For instance, 17,000 baby elephant seals died from bird flu in Argentina late last year. There was also an outbreak among farmed mink in Spain in 2022. But it is hard to rule out the possibility of other sources of the virus such as contaminated food in these situations, he says.

  What's all the hubbub about the solar eclipse

What's all the hubbub about the solar eclipse? AP acts as if it's just an abundance of caution, but I don't ever recall all of this BS 

I wanted to drop this here and will add more later 

Seeing areas and organizations declaring states of emergency, seems like a gross overreaction...what am I missing

Various events mentioned 

CERN NASA & State of Emergency during Solar Eclipse.

• Solar eclipse on April 8th • NASA is firing 3 rockets at it • A "Devil Comet" will be visible during it • They’re turning on CERN on for first time since 2022 the same day • "Celestial explosion will briefly create new star in skies" Crazy week!

NASA Director warns of “Unusual Behaviors” during Eclipse and that Solar Eclipses have “Special Power”.

https://apnews.com/article/total-solar-e...3f26234a2e
 

Quote:MISSION, Kan. (AP) — Stock up on groceries. Print off driving directions. And be very, very patient.
Small towns and rural enclaves along the path of April’s total solar eclipse are steeling for huge crowds of sun chasers who plan to catch a glimpse of day turning into dusk in North America.
Tourism and community leaders in the path of totality from Texas to Maine have trucked in extra fuel and port-a-potties, and urged residents and visitors to be prepared. Some counties have issued disaster declarations to get extra help with policing and other aid, similar to the aftermath of severe storms. And in Oklahoma, the National Guard will help.
Because of expected heavy traffic and other disruptions, hundreds of schools are closing or switching to remote learning in states including Texas, Indiana, Ohio, New York, Pennsylvania and Vermont.
WHY ALL THE WARNINGS?Look no further back than the last U.S. total solar eclipse in 2017 to understand the concern, said Tom Traub, who is part of NASA’s eclipse ambassador program.
That year, he traveled to Beatrice, Nebraska, where the normal population of around 12,000 swelled to around 40,000 as eclipse watchers arrived.

  Elephants "bury" their dead... a ritual examined
Posted by: Maxmars - 04-02-2024, 12:05 AM - Forum: Science & Technology - Replies (1)

Ever since I was a boy, I had heard that among all the animals in the world, elephants are among the few that seem to mourn their dead.  Not only that, but elephants have been reported to have a 'dying place' where many of their remains can be found... 

But I had never heard of anything approaching a 'ritual' or 'ritualized' handling of the deceased.  In fact, insofar as word of mouth is concerned, there were accounts (verbal only) that in Africa, they did in fact 'handle' their dead calves in a burial fashion.  But it had never been scientifically examined or encountered... 

Now recently in Asia, the burial sites of four calves have been studied...

From Science Alert: Tragic And Mysterious Elephant Burial Ritual Witnessed by Scientists
also from ThreatenedTaxa.org: Unearthing calf burials among Asian Elephants ...
 


Asian elephants loudly mourn and bury their dead calves, according to a study by Indian scientists that details animal behaviour reminiscent of human funeral rites.
...
They found in each case that a herd carried the deceased calf by the trunk and legs before burying it in the earth with its legs facing upward.

"Through opportunistic observation, digital photography, fieldnotes, and postmortem examination reports, we suggest that the carcasses were buried in an abnormal recumbent style irrespective of the reasons for the calf's death," the study said.



[Image: BuriedElephant.jpg]
 

Wild elephants in both Africa and Asia are known to visit carcasses at different stages of decomposition, but this study found different behaviours from the herds it studied.

In all five cases the herd "fled the site within 40 minutes of burial" and later avoided returning to the area, instead taking different parallel routes for migration.



I have to wonder at the behavior, and how it might be reconciled as 'biological' as opposed to 'cultural.'

  3. Since early 1970’s DOD has been experimenting as intelligence gathering tool. Hal Puthoff & Russel Targ at Stanford Research Institute (SRI) has proven success.
  4. Remote viewing coined at Sri. Acquisition and description by mental process of information blocked from ordinary perception by distance, shielding, or time.
  5. Pat price and Ingo swann proven gifted in cia remote viewing tests.
  6. Much detailed accurate information collected and proven accurate. Gained detailed info about Soviet R&D facility.

  14. 1978 army ACSI concluded effective and made comprehensive program. Canceled Gondola Wish, placed complete security envelope over army’s interest and made new program for Remote viewing: Grill Flame. (Personal note - I’ve described it as a shell game for years. Just renaming and moving it but keeping it going).
  15. Grille flame purpose to use remote viewing as an information collection method - Ft. Meade MD
  16. Spring 1978 INSCOM selected personnel and began training.
  17. How accurate? Would intel community accept?

  30. Oct 1983 DIA published report saying remote viewing and remote action (Personal note, I’ve been dropping hints about this for years) research should be continued under DIA.
  31. 1984 unit put under DIA. Agreed to Sep 1984.
  32. Feb 1985 Center Lane transfer to DIA as SAP complete.
  33. Congress briefed. NFIP Funding restored.

  35. Location Ft Meade MD.
  36. Passive intelligence gathering technique, can not be detected when used (personal note - later questioned).
  37. Chinese claim detection using Children (personal note, they were not only ones using children). Insufficient data.
  38. Remote viewing is inexpensive. Expense just people.
  39. No known defence. Time , distance, target, size, or degree of difficulty no apparent effect. Conceptional plans have been collected before use.

  Long Covid does more than sicken you...
Posted by: Maxmars - 03-29-2024, 01:04 PM - Forum: Science & Technology - Replies (6)

This is a story about more than just COVID (or the COVID-like vaccine experience) so settle your personal baggage and read on.

First a note about what some doctors are seeing with long-COVID... something most who were infected or pseudo exposed via vaccine may have experienced...

From National Geographic: Long COVID can destroy your ability to exercise. Now we know why.
From Nature: Muscle abnormalities worsen after post-exertional malaise in long COVID

People who suffer long-COVID have been showing signs of problems which seem to defy "healing." 

While many accept and subscribe to the notion that reasonable 'exercise and activity' offers the body a chance to heal and recover from illness.  Some long COVID sufferers are further afflicted by being unable to exert themselves without becoming exhausted and not recovering despite resting... they never recover from the fatigue.  Doctors have now actually identified the physical damage and verified its extent.
 


A distinctive symptom of patients with long COVID is post-exertional malaise, which is associated with a worsening of fatigue- and pain-related symptoms after acute mental or physical exercise, but its underlying pathophysiology is unclear.

 

For many people with long COVID, a major symptom is difficulty with exercising, because when these patients push past their limits it can lead to a devastating cycle of fatigue that boosts the risk of worsening their condition.

These issues with exercise, which is known as post-exertional malaise (PEM), are also the defining symptoms of myalgic encephalomyelitis / chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS).

Now a new study, published in the journal Nature Communications, provides an explanation for this feeling of exhaustion, suggesting that patients with long COVID experience a range of changes in their body after exercising, including widespread muscle damage, changes in muscle composition, and disrupted energy metabolism.

This study “actually shows the damage” to the body that is being caused by post-exertional malaise, says Lucinda Bateman, a physician at the Bateman Horne Center, who specializes in treating patients with ME/CFS and long COVID. As Bateman notes, this includes showing “the inflammation, the damage, the scarring, the clots,” which are all found in the muscles of long COVID patients. Researchers also found differences in the activity of the mitochondria—the body’s microscopic energy factories—following exercise.


(underline is mine)

It appears the patient's suffering from long COVID actually damage themselves when they try to 'get fit' by exercising.  What's worse, the damage caused by exercise actually makes it harder to recover... and depletes their energy over the long term.
 

“Normally we know from all the other chronic diseases that exercise is good for you, that exercise is medicine,” Wüst says. “However, these patients do get worse.”


The data is in... 
 

Evidence of this impaired exercise recovery was also seen in muscle tissue of long COVID patients in the Nature Communications study—signs of muscle scarring, inflammation, and blood clots, both before and after the exercise. “We saw a lot of muscle damage, and signs that there has been damage in the past,” Wüst says.

This damage is thought to be the result of multiple bouts of post-exertional malaise, which is then compounded by an impaired ability to recover.



While this is a terrible effect of the disease, at least we now have a starting point in learning how to manage recovery without making it worse.

  Climate Scam
Posted by: guyfriday - 03-28-2024, 09:32 PM - Forum: Fragile Earth - Replies (16)

I was digging for a specific video from a Congressional hearing about Climate Change that occurred decades ago. I hadn't run across it yet, but I did find this video reportedly from 1992. 



So, before I get into a lot of this mess, my question for everyone here is can we verify that this video is both real, and took place when it is said to have taken place, then if it is true can we start to hunt down the information reported in it? 

In this video it has Paul Harvey telling a story about climate change and how it is a fraud. Now I'm going to be looking for that Congressional hearing still, but in the meantime for the sake of arguments, I think we can look at this (if real that is) and start to dig apart this scam. It's about how the fragility of Earth is a lie being perpetrated in order to scam trillions of dollars from the global public and force many people of the world into modern servitude. All the while a very real threat of a new Glacial Period is beginning to emerge creating the next big Ice Age.

  Why have you forsaken me?
Posted by: DISRAELI - 03-28-2024, 06:07 PM - Forum: Religion, Faith, & Theology - No Replies

We are told that shortly before his death on the Cross Jesus cried aloud, quoting the first line of Psalm 22; “My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?” (Mark ch15 v34).

Taken in isolation, this looks like a cry of despair. Indeed David C.K. Watson, in his evangelistic book “My God is Real”, asserts that Jesus did indeed experience a loss of contact with his Father, for the first time in his life, because he was overwhelmed by the burden of “the sin of the world”, which he was now taking on. I remember that argument well, because that page was a key factor in my own conversion to the Christian faith, one night in May 1972. The impact of that concept won me over (intellectually, rather than emotionally).

However, there’s also a lot to be said for not taking that cry in isolation. Another angle worth considering is that quoting the first line of the psalm was a shorthand way of quoting the whole psalm, and the whole psalm should be taken into account as an expression of his meaning.

Psalm 22 can be divided into sections in which “I need God’s help” alternates with “God must help me, God will help me, God has helped me”.

Vv1-2 “I need God’s help.” The speaker cries to God day and night, but finds no rest because God does not respond.

Vv3-5 Yet God ought to help because he has helped Israel in the past. This may be one of the many psalms in which the troubled “I” is actually Israel, speaking as a community, making a corporate appeal in times of national danger. “Our fathers” trusted him and were not disappointed, because he saved them. That is why he remains “holy, enthroned on the praises of Israel”.

Vv6-8 But the speaker’s life is currently in a very depressed state. “I am a worm and no man.” “All who see me mock at me.” They say “He committed his cause to the Lord; let him [the Lord] deliver him.” In fact that is exactly what “they” say in Matthew; “He trusts in God; let God deliver him now” (Matthew ch27 v43). And the gospel narratives describe other forms of mockery around the Cross.

Vv9-10 On the other hand, again, the speaker has been committed to the Lord all his life, from the time of his birth.

Vv11-18 The speaker describes the trouble that is surrounding him, when there is apparently nobody near to help.

He is surrounded by a menacing herd of “bulls of Bashan”. Bashan is a region north-east of the Sea of Galilee. High elevation, presumably good pasture land, and therefore famous as a cattle area. The bulls would be well-fed and strong. The imperious high-born wives of Israel are called “cows of Bashan” in Amos ch4 v1.

Alternatively, he is surrounded by a pack of wild dogs. All dogs are comparatively wild in this culture, which is why the word is an insult. Or, dropping the metaphors, “a company of evildoers”.

“I am poured out like water”. All the strength and energy has gone out of him.
“All my bones are out of joint… my tongue cleaves to my jaws”. This could be a literal description of the experience of crucifixion, in which the actual cause of death is slow strangulation caused by the posture in which the victim is suspended.
“Thou dost lay me in the dust of death”.
“I can count all my bones.” In the psalm, this is probably meant to portray the effects of starvation during a period of famine. No flesh left.
“They divide my garments among them, and for my raiment they cast lots.” This is echoed in the gospel narratives and actually quoted in John ch19 v24.

Vv19-21 On the dual basis of his need to be helped and his right to be helped, the speaker makes his appeal for the protection of his life.

We are told that Jesus “made prayers and supplications… to him who was able to save him from death, and he was heard for his godly fear” (Hebrews ch5 v7). Someone might ask “How was he heard and saved, since he died on the Cross?” The answer is that his faith was preserved unto the point of death, and he was raised from the dead. He passed through death and came out on the other side.

That is the promise of “salvation” made for us regarding the tribulation. There is no guarantee whatever that God’s faithful people will escape suffering or even death in the tribulation, but their faith will be preserved and they will be raised from the dead. That is what “coming out of the tribulation” means (Revelation ch7 v14). It means passing through the tribulation and coming out the other side, like canoeing through the rapids instead of by-passing them.

Vv22-31 All this is leading up to the triumphant message that God will be praised. Christ has been raised from the dead.

The speaker will praise him and urges others to praise him, because he has heard the cries of appeal.
This will go out to “the ends of the earth”, because the Lord has dominion over all the nations. All the proud men of the earth will bow down. This is not just for the present but will continue into the future.
“Men shall tell of the Lord to the coming generation, and proclaim his deliverance to a people yet unborn.”

“Why hast thou forsaken me” is not a cry of despair. It is the heading and prelude of a triumphant message about the resurrection of the dead and the proclamation of the gospel.

  Reinhard Heydrich
Posted by: theshadowknows - 03-28-2024, 01:34 PM - Forum: World War II - Replies (7)

[Image: MIspmTLl.jpeg]


Reinhard Heydrich was a key figure during the Holocaust, known for his significant role in organizing the Wannsee Conference. At this infamous meeting in 1942, high-ranking Nazi officials, including Heydrich, discussed and coordinated the implementation of the "Final Solution to the Jewish Question," which aimed to systematically exterminate European Jews. Heydrich's meticulous planning and ruthless determination made him the chief architect of the Holocaust, responsible for orchestrating the deaths of millions of innocent people.

During the Wannsee Conference, Heydrich and other Nazi officials discussed various options for the "Final Solution." One such alternative was the idea of forcibly deporting Jews to remote areas or colonies, effectively exiling them from Europe. However, this plan was ultimately deemed impractical due to logistical challenges and the sheer number of Jewish people across Europe. Heydrich and his cohorts ultimately settled on the systematic extermination of Jews through mass shootings, gas chambers, and concentration camps as the most efficient and ruthless method to achieve their genocidal goals. The discussions at Wannsee underscored the chilling indifference and calculated cruelty of the Nazi leadership in their pursuit of racial purity and domination.

As the head of the Sicherheitsdienst (SD), the intelligence agency of the SS, Heydrich wielded immense power and influence during the war. Under his leadership, the SD played a pivotal role in enforcing Nazi ideology, suppressing dissent, and carrying out acts of espionage and terror across occupied territories. Heydrich's ruthless methods and efficient organization of the SD contributed significantly to the Nazi war machine, facilitating the control and subjugation of populations deemed undesirable by the regime. His leadership of the SD exemplified the ruthless efficiency and brutal tactics employed by the Nazi regime in their quest for total domination during World War II.
 
Heydrich's reign of terror came to an end in 1942 when he was assassinated in Prague by Czech resistance fighters. This assassination, codenamed Operation Anthropoid, dealt a severe blow to the Nazi regime and became a symbol of resistance against their oppression. In retaliation for Heydrich's death, Hitler ordered the brutal reprisal of leveling the town of Lidice, near Prague, as a warning to others who dared to defy Nazi authority. This ruthless act further fueled anti-Nazi sentiments and strengthened the resolve of resistance movements across Europe.
 
Heydrich's legacy remains deeply intertwined with the darkest chapters of human history, serving as a stark reminder of the horrors of the Holocaust and the atrocities committed by the Nazi regime. His assassination and the subsequent destruction of Lidice stand as poignant reminders of the sacrifices made in the fight against tyranny and injustice during one of the darkest periods of the 20th century.

  Text and background issues
Posted by: DISRAELI - 03-28-2024, 07:54 AM - Forum: Board Questions & Business - Replies (5)

I had a problem with thread posting last night, trying to get visible text. I will give as much detail as I can to make it easier to analyse the issue.

One possible important clue is that when I first clicked the "post a thread" button, the editing panel showed up for an instant with a black background, before changing to white.

If I type on this screen in the default black, the thread posts as white text on black background. So far, so good.

But last night I was pasting in from a Word document, something I have done a couple of times before. This too appeared on screen as black text on white. But once the thread was posted, it appeared on screen as black text (or at least grey) on black background. Almost unreadable.

I went into editing again for a few tries at sorting it out. Eventually I worked out how to change the colour of existing text (just a matter of choosing "select all" on my browser first), and changed the text to white. The result was a blank white screen. Acting in faith (naturally) I "updated thread" and this turned into white text on black background. That will do.

The catch is that I can't do any further editing, because the editing panel is still white text on white background. I could experiment with red text, which might work both ways, or change back to black text temporarily for editing purposes, but i don't want to mess things up again.

Something for your entertainment The Great Emu War...

Quote:The Emu War (or Great Emu War)[sup][2][/sup] was a nuisance wildlife management military operation undertaken in Australia over the later part of 1932 to address public concern over the number of emus (a large flightless bird indigenous to Australia) said to be destroying crops in the Campion district within the Wheatbelt of Western Australia.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emu_War

This bit I didnt know

Quote:it has also been argued that some in the government may have viewed the operation as a way of being seen to be helping the Western Australian farmers, as well as to stave off the brewing secession movement.

Ibid.

Its such a keystone cops operation that its become a bit of a joke, we lost a war to enus.

  The coup that failed
Posted by: DISRAELI - 03-27-2024, 06:24 PM - Forum: Religion, Faith, & Theology - Replies (2)

David was coming to the end of his life and growing more feeble (1 Kings ch1).  
 
Obviously the issue of succession to the throne would have to be confronted. Once again, polygamy would be a major complicating factor. The later Ottoman empire illustrates the problem, showing how polygamy tends to produce too many possible candidates for the throne. Being born from different mothers reduces the sense of kinship among the sons and heightens the sense of rivalry. In fact the competition for the throne becomes an anxious necessity, if they know that the winner of the race is likely to kill his brothers afterwards. 
 
Thus there is no security in the status of “eldest son”. Even their father’s preference may be diverted to a son of his favourite wife. It will be helpful if the candidate is popular among the people, but he needs to find allies in the military leadership, the religious leadership, and the royal household. The household is important partly because those close to the monarch will be the first to know about his death, priceless information which they may be able to keep to themselves until they have perfected their own arrangements. 
 
At first glance, the obvious heir to David’s throne was Adonijah, the fourth of his Hebron sons and probably the eldest surviving son. “His father had never at any time displeased him by asking; Why have you done thus and so?” (v4) He was aware of David’s decline, and exalted himself, saying “I will be king”. He prepared for himself chariots and horsemen and fifty men to run before him.  
 
At the same time, there was also a “son of the favourite wife”. David had already sworn an oath to Bathsheba, that her son Solomon would reign after him. Unfortunately the child was still too young to be a plausible war-leader, which may be one of the reasons why the decision had not been announced publicly. I’m sure Adonijah would have guessed the secret, though. 
 
Adonijah had secured the support of two leading figures. Joab, as commander of the host, and Abiathar, as priest-custodian of the ark, might be seen as the heads of their respective 
“departments”. Yet this combination was not as strong as it looked. Adonijah’s party did not include Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, captain of the king’s bodyguard. Nor did it include the rest of David’s “mighty men”. Where, then, was Abishai, Joab’s elder brother, once “commander of the thirty”? Probably retired or dead, having been active since the very beginning of the reign. It’s likely that the
“thirty” had disappeared altogether. Joab and 
Abishai together had controlled the court. Without Abishai, and in the absence of the host (which had not been called out for war), Joab was an old commander with immense prestige and no soldiers. 
 
There were also other religious leaders besides Abiathar. Zadok, head of the rival priestly line, remained loyal to David, as did Nathan the prophet.  
 
For that matter, there is no sign that Adonijah had been able to suborn anyone surrounding David, within the royal household. This was important, because his prospects would depend upon his timing. If he tried to claim the throne while David was still conscious and capable of making decisions, he would be crushed. If he waited for David’s death to be announced, the king’s chosen successor would be proclaimed at the same time. At the very least he needed a spy, to tell him how quickly the king’s life was ebbing away. The key factor in one of the most fateful days in David’s reign may have been that Adonijah made his move just a whisker too soon. 
 
Adonijah “crossed the Rubicon” by arranging a great sacrifice and feast at En-rogel, just outside Jerusalem. The two things go together, because the guests would be feasting on the sacrificed animals. He invited his brothers (apart from Solomon) and all the royal officials. Presumably the plan was that Abiathar the priest would rise from the table at some point and anoint Adonijah as king. His guests would acclaim him and swear allegiance. By this means, he would have taken over the kingdom. If nothing went wrong. 

A feast planned on that scale could not be kept secret, so his purpose was transparent. While this was happening, Nathan the prophet was in the king’s palace, alerting Bathsheba to the state of crisis. They needed to warn David. Nathan shrewdly managed the affair by telling Bathsheba to make the first approach on her own. He would then follow, giving a second warning to reinforce the first. This would have more impact than a single message given jointly. Between them, they would sting David into action. 
 
In their separate audiences, Bathsheba and Nathan described what was happening across the valley and pleaded for action. “And now, my lord the king, the eyes of all Israel are upon you, to tell them who shall sit upon the throne of my lord the king after him. Otherwise it will come to pass, when my lord the king sleeps with his fathers, that I and my son Solomon will be counted offenders [and executed]” (vv20-21). 
 
After Nathan said his piece, David recalled 
Bathsheba to his presence and swore an oath to the Lord renewing his previous promise. Escorted by the king’s bodyguard (the Cherethites and Pelethites), Zadok, Nathan, and Benaiah the son of 
Jehoiada took Solomon down to the spring of Gihon. Zadok collected the sacred horn of oil from the tent, which must have been close by, and anointed Solomon. Then they blew the trumpet and all the people joyfully acclaimed Solomon as king. 
The feasters at En-rogel could hear the trumpet and the clamour in the city, but did not know what it meant. It was Jonathan, son of Abiathar, who came in to report the bad news of Solomon’s elevation to the throne. At that moment, Adonijah knew that his two aces, Joab and Abiathar, had been trumped. The game was up. “Then all the guests of Adonijah trembled and rose and each went his own way.” Adonijah took refuge at the horns of the altar, inside the tent, but Solomon promised him his life, on condition of good behaviour. 
 
“So the kingdom was established in the hand of Solomon”

[P.S. This is an extract from the newly-published “Prophets, Priests and Politics”, a survey of Old Testament history through the eyes of the pro
phets.]
