Yes, I've felt that way for a long time. What if the Anunnaki are really benefactors to humanity; is so then the Illuminati shapeshifters would do everything in their power to demonize them and would be quite content if we thought the Anunnaki were reptilians.
So what evidence is there that the Anunnaki have been demonized; and who would benefit from this?
I have found a possible explanation as to why people might mistake them for reptilians. The Anunnaki appear to be the "serpent people"; I think that is why people think they are reptilians.
Some of the pharaohs have the enlarged skulls; and they probably increased brain capacity as well. Brian Desborough has written a very interesting book called "They Cast No Shadows. He describes the Anunnaki as the humanoids. They were the pharaohs with the enlarged skulls and he explains why they are called "serpent people."
He also says that the 13 Illuminati bloodlines of shapeshifters receive their "marching orders" from an offplanet race of reptilian dragon-like race.

I saw my first evidence of the existence of E.T.'s about 25 years ago when I was shown the Roswell autopsy report that clearly indicated that the craft's occupants were humanoids.
Amazingly, the UFO community has totally ignored hard evidence of humanoid visitors who arrived on earth more than 5000 years ago. Unlike human skulls, the front and rear halves of their skulls never knitted together. Consequently, as their brains grew in infancy, the rear half of their head was pushed rearwards, pulling their facial skin taut and giving them the appearance of a serpent (a Dead Sea scroll mentions a similar being). Their skeletons have been found in Sumer, the Giza Plateau, Malta and Yucatan and at the Mayan pyramids. Superstitious Mayans later bound their infants' heads between two boards in an attempt to simulate the skulls.
So much misinformation has been published concerning the Sumerian culture that it's advisable to learn the language and study Sumerian texts oneself. According to the texts, these great civilizers known variously as the El (shining ones) Annana, Annunaki and in the pre dynastic Egyptian texts as the Shemsu Hor (followers of Horus) descended upon the summit of Mount Hermon as the waters of the global flood began to reside and created a community on the upper slopes of the mountain in a grassy plain they named Edin. After a long period of time they migrated to Mesopotamia and created a civilization there. Several years ago, I had the pleasure of dining with the erudite physicist and Sumerian scholar, the late George Merkl, Ph.D. when we both lectured at a Global Sciences symposium and found it refreshing to hear him refer to popular books on Sumerian history as a "fairy story."
The reason much data appertaining to these remarkable people has been obscured is because Dr. Merkl discovered that many Sumerian texts contain advanced data concerning protein synthesis and endoplasmic reticulii. He also decoded a Sumerian text providing details on the manufacture of an amazing elixir. He replicated the elixir, which contained microscopic crystals that had remarkable healing qualities. When a powerful light beam was projected on the base of a glass Petrie dish containing the elixir, the dish levitated. Dr. Merkl, the recipient of some 400 patents, also developed very advanced optical equipment which enabled him to view planets with incredible clarity.
According to the earliest Egyptian texts, it was the Shemsu Hor who created the Great Pyramid. Carbon dating using the tree ring calibration method dates the Pyramid at 3000 BCE, not 2500 BCE as is commonly believed. Evidence of the Shemsu Hor's advanced technology is to be found in the Great Pyramid's stone blocks, which were cast in geopolymer stone, not quarried (the blocks contain chemically bound water, not found in natural limestone).
For a number of years I served in a support function for high level survivors of Illuminati mind control and Satanic ritual abuse. Some of these unfortunate individuals had served in a dual capacity as highly trained powerful psychics who had the ability to invoke hideous entities from other astral realms at ritual gatherings and also acted as telepathic intermediaries between E.T.'s and scientists at various covert facilities such as Area 51 and China Lake Naval Weapons Depot.
What I learned from these individuals is that the 13 ruling families of shape shifters receive their global planning strategies from a reptilian dragon like race who reside off planet.

The Shemsu Hor
Most humans devolved into being merely hunter-gatherers. In order to "jump-start" a new civilization, an amazing race of beings appeared on Earth. Known as the "Shemsu Hor," (meaning disciples of Horus) noted Egyptologists such as the late Schwaller de Lubicz (1891- 1951) found that pre-dynastic Egypt had no evolutionary development, but rather received its civilization intact from elsewhere. Ancient texts have revealed that these great civilizers were the Shemsu Hor, some of whose skeletons have been
discovered at Saqquara, in Egypt.
The Shemsu Hor were a fair haired, blue eyed race and taller than the indigenous Egyptians. Curiously, their skulls possessed an astonishing physical characteristic: unlike conventional human skulls, the front and rear halves of the Shemsu Hor skulls did not knit together. In consequence, as the brain grew during infancy, the rear half of the skull was forced backwards. This pronounced deformation caused the skin to become very taut, thereby giving the Shemsu Hor the facial appearance of a serpent! Very significantly, the deformed Shemsu Hor skulls have been found in regions of the world where ancient structures were constructed with massive stone blocks, e.g. the Giza Plateau, the pyramids of Central America and the Hal Saflini Hypogeum in Malta. The term "Shem" is of Akkadian derivation, being derived from the Babylonian term "shamash," meaning "serpent," Akkadia being the former name of Kurdistan. It is also in these particular regions that Mother Goddess figurines have been found who bear the facial features of a serpent. Interestingly, the Dead Sea scroll entitled "The Testament of Amran," bears the phrase "… his face was that of a viper."

The history of Planet Earth, as recorded by the ten official Illuminati historians, was compared with other historical and archaeological informational sources in order for me to arrive at a realistic revisionist global history for the book, for we are unable to acquire enlightenment unless we become knowledgeable about the true patterns of the past. Humans generally assume, for instance, that the Book of Genesis is not associated with any reptilian race, yet the Illuminati hierarchy are adamant that Genesis is their book, which I have to agree with, for the Illuminati dragons here on earth were cast out of their homeland in another astral realm because of their evil ways (many dragons in other realms of existence are quite spiritually evolved).
Although the earthbound dragons are barred from returning to their original homeland, a few humans possess the key which is necessary to visit there (certain members of the Afghani Kawajaghan and a few high level Illuminati mind control survivors know what I'm referring to).
In conclusion, I would like to announce that a Japanese translation of my book is in progress. If things work out satisfactorily, it will include an appendix displaying photographs of authentic reptilian mummies, some photos of which I have viewed.

The first thing that the reptilians and shape-shifters had to do when they came to Earth was kill the Anunnaki. The Anunnaki had been ruling the Earth for 400,000 years since their arrival from Nibiru. They are extremely long lived and robust, but by the time of Alexander the Great, 333 BC, the space-gods had been replaced by those who found the density of Earth promising.
Most of the negative ones came to Earth about 2500 BC, with the Earth's polar alignment on Alpha Draconis or the star called Thuban. During such alignments the whole planet is a stargate. The most recent similar alignment was with Polaris in 1951.
On their own planet the shape-shifters are perfectly adapted to high density planetary existance. They also find the cores of planets welcoming. Earth at 5.5 times the specific gravity of water is the densest planet in our solar system. The cores of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune may contain more matter, but they do not have the metals of Earth. The Earth has a thick magnetic envelope too. This contributes to the density grid of the planet. The shape-shifter want to recreate the conditions of their home world on Earth by compressing the grids.
The Anunnaki's home world, Nibiru, is the opposite of the shape-shifter's home world. Nibiru, spending most of its 3600 year orbit in interstellar space and scarce on heavy metals, is less dense than Earth. Although the mass of Nibiru is roughly four times that of Earth and surface gravity likewise higher, the grids were open and refined. The open grids contributed to the near immortality of the Anunnaki.

My friend and I were discussing this sort of theory only yesterday. I think it's entirely feasible. Look and read the bible. All the answers to our upcoming battles lies in the text. It's merely your interpretation that gets the right answers.
Emanuel= Jesus
" I have other flocks to shepherd"
We are one of many farms of beings perpetuated, existing in many parts of the universe, at various stages of transformation.
Just remember, as we go through the unknown ahead, that the meek will truly inherit the earth. The prophecies must be fullfilled so the world can move on in it's new dimension with superstition gone, yet our knowledge in heritage intact, so we may never forget.

The customary motive for writing a book is either for financial rewards or for ego satisfaction. Occasionally however, a person feels so strongly about a situation that he or she is compelled to bring the subject to the general public. Such a person is David dIcke, who is to be commended for courageously revealing the covert and evil reptilian agenda, enduring much scorn and harassment in the process.
When I was eighteen months old, I contracted what was believed at the time to be a terminal illness; since that near death experience, I have possessed the ability to astrally project. During an out of body experience in 1971, I encountered five highly evolved beings, who informed me that I must write a revisionist history of the world. The purpose of the book was to take the readers out of their comfort zones by presenting them with the truth regarding such diverse subjects as the true location of Atlantis, the duplicitous acts of the Illuminati, and the fundamentals of free energy technology. It was hoped that such a book would generate a word-of-mouth pandemic among the global populace, in order to finally collapse the Illuminati House of Cards, thus permitting humanity to create a better world which emphasises love, not hate.
These non-physical entities stressed that I should conduct an indepth study of the research of Nikola Tesla and Wilhelm Reich. I felt that this would be a daunting task since the published works of Reich had been publicly burned in 1956 by order of a corrupt judge. Reich's books were not republished until the late 1970's. To make matters worse, in order to protect his financial interests, the crafty Tesla omitted key elements from his free energy patents, thereby rendering them virtually useless.
Shortly after meeting the entities, I had a "chance" encounter with a pediatrician who had been one of Reich's research associates at the time when Federal goons arrested Dr. Reich and destroyed his lab equipment with axes. He provided me with access to a copy of Reich's research notes, which enabled me to aquire a knowledge of weather engineering.
At that time period, I was a member of a small spiritual healing group. Upon concluding a healing session upon an elderly female metallurgist who was dying from heavy metal poisoning, she asked me whether I had heard of Nikola Tesla. Upon answering in the affirmative, the lady smiled and took me into her laboratory, which adjoined her house.
There on a workbench sat a very old free energy unit. She explained that after Lewis Cass Payseur–the wealthiest person in America, had instructed his financial lackey J.P. Morgan to cancel Tesla's funding, the inventive genius quietly rented laboratory space in Portland, Oregon, where he developed his so-called "death ray," which has the capability of flash-freezing the inhabitants of a distant city, if the device is tuned to a quarter wavelength of the distance between the city and the device.
One day, continued the lady, Tesla felt a tug on his sleeve. Looking down he saw the landlord's twelve year old son, who said: "Mr. Tesla, will you teach me all you know?" Tesla was so impressed that the boy became one of Tesla's protégés and eventually married the lady I had just met. The
lady then provided me with some of her husband's notes on free energy and anti-gravitic devices. In this manner, many doors were opened, thus enabling me to aquire meaningful data for the book.
During the three decades it took to research and write the book, I became involved with exorcism, where I experienced encounters with hostile reptoids from the lower astral realms. This was a period where I met people deemed to be under psychic attack or delusional but were, in actuality, victims of mind control. Some of these survivors of insidious mind control projects were members of satanic cults, others were trained to be military assassins, while others such as Cisco Wheeler and the former Illuminati Mother Goddess Arizona Wilder, had been trained from infancy by the Nazi "Angel of Death" Josef Mengele for their roles as very high-level Illuminati slaves.
Ms. Wilder has been ridiculed by some people who are obviously too lazy to research her claims for themselves. I was asked to help Arizona shortly after she had been bound with thin wire and brutally beaten for quitting her Illuminati controllers, and have been able to substantiate many of her claims, bizarre as they are. For instance, after informing me that she had been abducted and taken to a residence in Southern California for reprogramming, I learned that mind-control survivors who were members of a support group called Mothers Against Sexual Abuse had also been programmed at the same facility.
One of the strangest claims made by Arizona was that when she was taken to the residences of various European royalfamilies for the purpose of conducting Illuminati rituals, she noted that members of these families had a passion for wearing period costumes when dining or dancing in private. A year after I was told this weird story, I had dinner with a European painter who specialized in painting the portraits of members of the European nobility. She told me that this entailed staying as a house guest until the portraits were completed. She added that these noble families had a penchant for wearing period costumes when dining in private! Moreover, she said that present-day seamstresses were unfamiliar with the complex stitches used in such clothing, so the nobility employed seamstresses who had been specially trained in such stitching techniques.
In keeping with many mind control survivors, Arizona kept a daily journal. The earliest of these journals contained many profound passages written by her various alter personalities. I noticed that one journal she showed me made reference to a hobby store located on Los Angeles'
Wilshire Boulevard. Arizona explained that she had been taken to the basement of the store, which was an Office of Naval Intelligence (ONI)facility. She was taken through a tunnel beneath the road to a psychiatric facility also covertly owned by ONI, where she was subjected to additional programming by the Jesuit-trained Cuban born psychiatrist who is the dicer and slicer at rituals held by the Illuminati High Council of the United States.
What Arizona was unaware of at that time, was that two decades prior to meeting her, I had interviewed the grandson of Adolph Zukor, the founder of Paramount Pictures. The grandson had been disowned by his family after he had publicly leaked the well-known Report from Iron Mountain. His father had been deputy director of ONI during WWII; he later founded the super-secret Defense Industrial Security Command (DISC) the quasi- private security arm of the military-industrial complex. This is the group that directed the assassination of President Kennedy, on behalf of
the Permindex cabal. The grandson told me about the hobby store's basement and the tunnel leading to the ONI psychiatric facility, and added that Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher used to go there for "therapy."
It should be noted that many supposed wiccan covens contain an inner circle of satanists, who perform various tasks for the Illuminati High Council. Such a "wiccan" cult is located in Yucca Valley, adjacent to the Twenty Nine Palms Marine Base (which has a subterranean flying saucer facility). This particular satanic cult is headed by an Hispanic fellow; its core members have been programmed by the above referenced Cuban psychiatrist to assassinate anyone deemed hostile by the High Council.
Authors of non-fiction books often experience difficulty in aquiring sufficient data to fill a book of normal length. In contrast, the research material aquired by myself over the past three decades has resulted in an overabundance of riches. Consequently, I've had to omit much important research material in my book and also shorten some passages.
Had space permitted, the second chapter, which deals with the creation of life (biogenesis) would have delved deeper into what I perceive to be the fundamental hierarchical structure of the universe. My research into the nature of free energy systems suggests that an interrelationship
exists between everything in the universe, harmony being maintained by what we perceive as a cosmic canon of mathematical correspondences, originated by a concious creative intelligence which trancends the universe and is complete unto itself. As the chapter states: "It is quite probable that this creative intelligence, variously referred to as God, Allah, or Hillary Clinton, according to one's belief structure, administrates by means of a hierarchy of creative agencies imminent within nature, which assist at various transcendental levels in maintaining harmony throughout the cosmos."
If this postulate is correct, one would expect plantlife to be receiving intelligent signals from somewhere in the cosmos, and this is indeed the case. Despite the claim of the late Dr. Carl Sagan and scientists in his SETI organization that we have not detected intelligent communication from any extraterrestrial source, this is a blatant falsehood. As the chapter relates, George Lawrence developed equipment which has been receiving intelligent signals from the cosmos since 1974.
Interestingly, the component in Lawrence's electronic equipment which receives the signals from somewhere in the universe (or multiverse) is a transducer which is coated with living plant cells. Lawrence's equipment has been adopted by NASA.
Sadly, I was only able to give passing recognition on page 72 to a great scientist whose name and scientific work should be as well known to every high school student as that of Einstein, yet has been totally ignored by the scientific community. He is the late Lloyd Zirbes, who was
never able to have his twenty five years of research published; his harassment included the destruction of his laboratory by arson.
Contemporary physics theories, including the work of Albert
Einstein, have been built upon the laws of Newton, who in turn based his work on the writings of Galileo. According to academia, Galileo demonstrated that objects of equal mass but of different physical materials e.g. lead and feathers, fall at the same rate of acceleration in a vacuum. Lloyd Zerbes was astounded to discover that Galileo never made any tests on falling bodies, his claims were pure supposition.
Zirbes accordingly conducted an experiment in which a sphere of iron and a sphere of graphite of equal weight were simultaneously dropped down a two thousand feet mineshaft. At the bottom of the shaft, the final few feet of the fall was recorded by means of a high speed camera.
Amazingly, the graphite sphere, although considerably larger than the iron sphere because of its lower density, and therefore prone to more wind resistance, inpacted when the iron sphere was still six feet from impact.
A similar experiment using spheres of other metals revealed that the iron sphere still impacted later than all the other spheres. Moreover, the spheres diverged considerably from each other prior to impact and also developed a specific rotation when falling.
So what? Only that the work of Galileo, Newton and later scientists was very badly flawed; Zirbes research suggested that the sun is not a gigantic fusion reactor is claimed by academia, but rather consists of thousands of individual bodies which release energy by means of the interaction between their respective gravity fields. In other words, the sun's energy production is by mechanical not nuclear means, something also claimed by that brilliant scientist and Sumerian scholar, Dr. George Merkl.
After twenty five years of research, Zirbes invented a device which created gravity. So successful was the first test that everything in the lab that was not bolted down, degravitated and flew around, severely injuring the hapless Zirbes in the process. While he was hospitalized, his laboratory, van and some of his research notes were destroyed in an arson fire.
Zirbes stated that there are only two fundamental forces in the universe: motion and gravity. I feel this statement should be modified to read that gravity is compressed, or folded magnetism. Magnetism appears to be the glue that holds the univese together, something which can be illustrated by studying the 525 HP Rory Johnson free energy motor, which now has been classified by the US government, in order to prevent its incorporation into the Greyhound Bus Company coaches.
Among the many things that could be achieved by the application of the Zirbes physics is the injection of contained gravity into any physical matter in order to rearrange the atomic structure, thus producing any desired element.Intelligence (audio and video) could be modulated onto a pulsed Zirbes gravity generator, thus broadcasting gravity.
In recent years, we have been subjected to a plethora of New Age scare stories which have been based on badly flawed logic. Thus a polar flip was to occurr in 2000; it didn't. Planet Earth was to have been destroyed by the photon belt if not towed to another orbit by benevolent E.T.'s (we're still here) and we are scheduled to be destroyed by Planet X in 2003 (we won't be).
An ominous prediction by Lloyd Zirbes is one that we should heed, however. High energy particles emitted from nuclear waste dumps and nuclear tests are accumulating at a rapid rate some three hundred miles above our planet. These deadly particles are creating a repulsive field that will certainly move the planet further from the sun unless we refrain from using nuclear energy. In addition, some of these particles are being repelled by the sun and driven back to earth, resulting in global warming hotspots, radioactive rain and increased volcanic activity.
Since the Zirbes research material has never been officially
published, the reader may be wondering why I am familiar with it. One balmy night several years ago, I attended a garden party in Santa Barbara, California. Suddenly a stranger approached me from out of the gloom and said that he felt that he had to gatecrash the party to deliver a package to someone that he didnt know, and intuitively felt that the person was myself. When I looked at the thick file of papers later, I discovered that it was a copy of Lloyd Zirbes' research data.
The cover of my book depicts a reptilian wearing a red robe and sporting a gold mask. The creature is depicted holding an octagonal gold emblem, at the center of which is a black cosmic lemniscape (infinity sign). The Illuminati hierarchy are so arrogant that they believe that we mere humans are oblivious of their innermost secrets. Wrong! The creature on the bookcover is wearing the regalia worn by the highest Illuminati echelon at several of their rituals (to be totally accurate, a pallium adorned with a row of lemniscapes and octagons would be worn around the neck).
The octagonal gold emblem held by the creature is a type of identification badge given only to a super secret special security group which is the eyes and ears for members of the octagon, one of the highest levels within the Illuminati. Since the Illuminati is strictly a fear-based cult, only members of the octagon know the true identity of this security group, which is known as the Eyes of the Eight. As I mention in the book, in order to generate abject fear among humans who attend Illuminati rituals, such humans are frequently sacrificed in order to foment fear, even if the
persons have committed no infractions. Recently, for example, the Illuminati High Council of the United States sacrificed three of their most loyal and devoted human aides at a ritual held in Orange County, California.
The indigenous Indian tribes of Central and South America have fared terribly in recent decades as mining, lumber and military interests have perpetrated genocide in order to covet tribal lands. Had space permitted, I would have liked to have included in the chapter on extraterrestrials, a
particularly gruesome account provided by an informant who was a former Peruvian Army member. This informant had served as a security guard at a top secret facility in the jungle. The facility was largely staffed by very tall fair haired men of Nordic appearance. Whether these were extraterrestrials or genetically-engineered neo-Nazi clones is not known.
While stationed there, he claimed to have seen a humanoid in a tank of liquid and flying saucers. What shocked him the most were naked dead Indians from a local tribe, hanging upside down. Tubes inserted in their necks were draining spinal fluid, which he was told was used as a lubricant for special equipment. The informant's father had worked on the construction of an undersea tunnel, which provided access to flying saucers travelling to an underground facility near Lima, Peru.
Once again, in the Epilogue, space restrictions prevented me from expanding on the real backgrounds of American Founding Fathers Samuel Adams and John Hancock. In keeping with most of the Founding Fathers, these two were not honest patriots as the history books would have us believe, but rather scoundrels who fomented revolution for personal gain.
Adams was a tax collector who would undoubtedly have received a jail sentence for embezzling tax money had the Revolutionary War not occurred. Smuggler John Hancock did not initiate the Boston Tea Party as a protest against high import tarrifs on tea, but rather because the British had lowered the price of tea below that of Hancock's smuggled tea!. In actuality, as the book states, the Jesuit Superior General instigated the Revolutionary War on behalf of the Illuminati, using the wealthy Jesuittrained Carroll brothers as principal agent provocateurs. This is why the tract of land on which is built the District of Columbia, and owned by the Carroll family, formerly was named Rome.
The book points out that in 1203, King John of England, in his capacity as Crown Corporation Sole, granted the Vatican Corporation Sole ownership of England and her dominions in perpetuity. In return, the Vatican Corporation Sole granted England's Crown Corporation Sole administrative rights over England and her dominions, in perpetuity. This renders the United States of America, a private corporation and body politic formerly known as the Virginia Company, a satrapy of the Vatican.
If readers care to study the 1783 Treaty of Paris, which absolves King George III of England of future indebtedness to the United States, e.g. picking up the tab for a standing army on American soil, they will observe that King George is presented as Arch Treasurer and Prince Elector of the Holy Roman Empire and the United States of America. By signing the treaty two years after the Revolutionary War ended, the American signatories (Ben Franklin and John Adams) were acknowledging that King George was still the ruler of America. Total Vatican control over America did not occurr until the 19th century when the treacherous Jesuits initiated passage of the 14th Amendment to the Constitution, which rendered the laws of the individual sovereign states subservient to those of the United States of America.
I would have included a chapter on the 9/11 attack on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, except that David dIcke informed me that he was writing a book on the same subject. Not wishing to steal David's thunder, I will merely say that in January 2001, I was told by a business associate who is on a first name basis with David Rockefeller and Alan Greenspan, that in September 2001, elements within and without the United States Government were planning to create an event which would
hasten the economic collapse of America. The motive for such a diabolical act becomes clear when we note that the company which is the major player in the aquisition of bankrupt American corporations for only a few cents on the dollar, is Huchison Wampaugh, a giant company owned by the Peoples Republic of China, according to the newsmedia. However if we ascertain who the major stockholder is, it is none other than Pilgrim Investments, which is owned by the Bush family!
Why would the Bush family conspire with China, especially as I detail in the book, China and Russia plan to launch a nuclear attack and invasion of America sometime after the beginning of 2004? As is well known, Prescott Bush,Jr, the secret ruler of America, arranged a major resort construction project in China in 1978, just as his brother was elected President of the USA. Since that time, tremendous wheeling and dealing has been conducted between the elder Bush brothers, President Clinton and China, including providing China with advanced weaponry yet to go into service with the American military. Moreover, Wang Jun, the alleged head of Chinese Intelligence in America was observed making trips to the Clinton White House. All of this activity smacks of high treason.
The reason became clear for me last year when I was contacted by an American banker who was representing a multi-billion dollar Chinese Trust. He explained that during the Mao regime, female infanticide in China had been perpetrated on such a vast scale that today there are two hundred million young Chinese men who have no hope of even marrying the ugliest girl in their village. Such a situation has presented China with a dangerous situation. China therefore would like to develop the western regions of China, largely desert, in order to elevate the standard of living. I was invited to develop advanced free energy systems for this project, so that the area could be provided with very inexpensive electrical power.
Unfortunately, the greedy banker wanted loan shark percentages,thereby causing negotiations to collapse (naturally he professed strong Christian leanings). The interesting thing was that he told me that the head of the Chinese Trust informed him that when President Clinton visited China, in addition to visiting Beijing, he was also flown to another Chinese city so that he could visit the grave of his father! The banker was then shown the family tree of the Li bloodline, which is one of the ruling Illuminati bloodlines. The tree revealed that both Clinton and the elder Bush brothers were fathered by the Li bloodlne. It is popularly claimed that Clinton was fathered by a Rockefeller, but this could be a smokescreen, since the head of the Trust was adamant about the Li family tree connection. The problem for me was if this was true why didn't these men have Chinese facial characteristics? I then remembered that prior to this information, Arizona Wilder had told me that for generations, the Li bloodline had interbred with westerners, so that the offspring could pass as westerners. We must also remember that the Illuminati have very good genetic engineers. This would explain the illicit weapons technology
transfers to China, and why congressperson James Trafficant was recently convicted by a kangaroo court after he tried to stop the current massive influx of Chinese illegal immigrants into the United States, many of whom are probably establishing a military fifth column, preparatory for the planned Chinese invasion of America. In order to aquire an in-depth background on the crimes of the Bush cabal, readers are advised to read the newly-published book Bushwacked, by Uri Dowbenko, published by Conspiracy Digest (www.conspiracydigest.com).
My book claims that religion is a major mind control tool of the Illuminati; it illustrates this by citing the New Testament authoritarian exhortation to "turn the other cheek" and that the "meek shall inherit the earth." Both passages are typical Illuminati ploys designed to keep humanity in compliant servitude to the Illuminati. Turning the other cheek merely empowers the aggressor to escalate the aggression. A lady in San Diego is married to an alcoholic sailor. For years she endured his savage beatings, inflicted while he was drunk. Because she refrained from retaliating, the beatings progressively more violent. Telling a friend that she feared that she would be beaten to death, her friend suggested that the next time her husband attacked her, she should tie him up after he passed out, then give him a taste of his own medicine. She did just that, binding him after he had passed out in a drunken stupor, then beating him so severely with a piece of lumber that he had to be hospitalized. He has never laid a finger on her since.
Studies have revealed that during WWII, only eleven percent of combat troops had the ability to actually pull the trigger and deliberately kill the enemy soldier in their gunsight. The Merry Christmas Institute has accordingly developed techniques which are routinely used in the training of NATO troops. In consequence, the typical soldier, regardless of nationality, has become a dispassionate killer, responding in the manner of an automaton when commanded to kill. It is the intent of the Illuminati to use these robotic killers (in conjunction with America's Homeland Security cabal) to round up and execute the world's citizenry, then in turn progressively execute the killers, thus leaving the planet in the hands of the reptilians and a handful of human slaves. Perhaps this is as it should be, for a species which allows a relative handful of evil entities to enslave them does not deserve to be free.
The Palestinians appear to be a very silly people. Admittedly they have been cruelly treated by the Israeli establishment who, as my book demonstrates, have no divine right to any nation, but the manner in which the Palestinian populace have allowed their various political organizations, e.g. Hamas and the PLO to become infested with Israeli Mossad operatives who, in turn, are under the influence of the Jesuit Superior General, is inexcusable. Last year the newsmedia treated viewers to footage of an Israeli helicopter hovering over a Palestinian city for a long period, while casually firing rockets into a building.
The only resistance to this particular genocide was a handful of children impotently hurling small rocks at this vehicle of death. Surprisingly, Palestine has the world's largest per capita incidence of PhD's, yet not one of them had the foresight to have constructed a radio-controlled,gasoline powered rocket equipped with a C4 plastic explosive warhead (C4 plastique is as easy and simple to make as brewing a cup of coffee, using three ingredients obtainable from a hobby shop and a supermarket). Had the Israeli helicopter been destroyed by such a civilian built rocket, the Israeli military would have thought twice before ordering similar attacks on Palestinian territory.
Israel's only hope for lasting peace is its present generation of students, which is why they are one of the target readerships for my book.
If they are made aware that the State of Israel has no divine claim to their land, then hopefully they will create a word of mouth pandemic which negates the political clout of the Jewish Fundamentalist institutions (the yeshivas) who, in keeping with leading Christian Fundamentalists, are under the direction of London's Quator Coronati Masonic Lodge. This lodge, in keeping with all the world's masonic lodges, Jewish, Muslim, Catholic or Protestant) reports to an "unknown superior" who is the Illuminati's own puppet master, the Jesuit Superior General (the Black Pope).
America is another classic example of a nation which doesn't
deserve to be free. As was stated above, the 1783 Treaty of Paris acknowleged that America was still ruled by the British Crown after conclusion of the Revolutionary War. This is why all American Federal courts display the flag of the United States with a gold fringe added. This signifys that the trial is being conducted under British Admiraly Law and that the courtroom is an enclave. An enclave is a place where the laws of a foreign power preva ils. A foreign embassy in an enclave. When you entera foreign embassy you waive all rights to the laws of your nation, and become subservient to the laws of that particular embassy's country. In a similar manner, Americans entering a Federal courtroom displaying a flag bearing a gold fringe, automatically waive their constitutional rights.
Since Article 4 of the American Constitution specifically prohibits the establishment of a state (enclave) within any of the American sovereign states, Federal judges are committing treason and should be dealt with accordingly. Some Americanjudges even blatantly tell the defendants that they are not permitted to cite the Constitution during the trial!
A prime example of a corrupt Federal judge being monitored by partisans, is one who is a habitual cocaine user. She currently is a Federal prosecutor, presumably for the purpose of protecting drug cartel members.
Not surprisingly, she is a prominent member of the Daughters of the Eastern Star cult, whose logo displays an inverted pentagram.
A practical way for Americans to free themselves from the yoke of the British Crown, would be for the American public to demand that Americans of Flag Officer rank (Admirals and Generals) effect a military arrest of the Bush criminal cabal, members of Congress and all Federal judges on charges of treason (there's an overabundance of evidence) then demand the rescinding of the 1783 Treaty of Paris and the Virginia Charter. Until that happens, a large portion of American tax money will legitimately end up each year in the coffers of the British Crown. It's high time that the American public awoke from their long slumber and realize that General Cornwallis only surrendered the battle of Yorktown to General Washington, not the Revolutionary War, which Britain won on behalf of the Illuminati by covert means.
The history of Planet Earth, as recorded by the ten official
Illuminati historians, was compared with other historical and archaeological informational sources in order for me to arrive at a realistic revisionist global history for the book, for we are unable to aquire enlightenment unless we become knowledgeable about the true patterns of the past. Humans generally assume, for instance, that the Book of Genesis is not associated with any reptilian race, yet the Illuminati hierarchy are adamant that Genesis is their book, which I have to agree with, for the Illuminati dragons here on earth were cast out of their homeland in another astral realm because of their evil ways (many dragons in other realms of existence are quite spiritually evolved).
Although the earthbound dragons are barred from returning to their original homeland, a few humans possess the key which is necessary to visit there (certain members of the Afghani Kawajaghan and a few high level Illuminati mind control survivors know what I'm referring to).
In conclusion, I would like to announce that a Japanese translation of my book is in progress. If things work out satisfactorily, it will include an appendix displaying photographs of authentic reptilian mummies, some
photos of which I have viewed.

The Annunakis are not reptilian, I know it.
Marduk is however not an occultist and it would have been a great fall if he were to have been Ra. I think Ra is one of the Annunakis that have left with Nibiru (I tend to think Nibiru is not a planet but some kind of mothership - as it been described Nibiru to be a dead planet holed in the inside and then used for long travels).
But you are right, depicting them as reptilian is well on the agenda. However this has also to do with the Fallen Angels who had a bad experience with reptilians and from that day think anything coming from Orion would be a reptilian (for lack of better description).

The 25 essential New York City jazz icons
Swing through the city with these crucial artists.
New York City has always claimed bragging rights as the jazz capitol of the world, but in the past few years, the local scene has surged in a special way. Thriving indie labels (Pi, Aum Fidelity), new festivals and series targeted at young listeners (Winter Jazzfest, Inside the Whale) and the continued vitality of old standbys (from Jazz at Lincoln Center to the Stone) have combined to restore the music's status from respectably classy to genuinely hip.
[Editor's note: Since we originally compiled this list of Essential New York City Jazz Icons in 2011, we have lost just one: our top pick, Paul Motian, who was the subject of a superbtribute concert in March. In bringing this list back up for further exposure in honor of Jazz Appreciation Month, we pay our respects to Mr. Motian; renew our enthusiasm for the other artists saluted here; and urge everyone to head out and discover the budding icons of today…and tomorrow.—Hank Shteamer and Steve Smith, April 2013]
25. Bill Charlap
When the venerable pianist Dick Hyman retired from his longtime position as artistic director of the 92nd Street Y's beloved Jazz in July series in 2004, the institution found an ideal replacement in pianist Bill Charlap, a supremely gifted interpreter of the jazz canon and the Great American Songbook (and Hyman's distant cousin, to boot). Already deeply admired for his regular trio dates in Manhattan and his occasional work accompanying vocalist Sandy Stewart—a.k.a. Charlap's mom—this vital young player has stepped into his expanded role as both a clever conservator and a restlessly inventive interpreter whose work brings the standards to life.
24. Ari Hoenig
There's something comforting about a musician with a regular gig, a player who can be found at the same address at more or less the same time each week. But when that musician is Ari Hoenig, the proposition suddenly becomes a whole lot more interesting. The drummer (who plays Monday nights at Smalls in the West Village, typically appearing with pros such as pianist Jean-Michel Pilc and guitarist Gilad Hekselman) works in what could be termed the mainstream jazz idiom, performing a conventional blend of nimble up-tempo standards and ballads; inventive originals, some with a punky or fusiony bent, season the mix. What's really special about Hoenig, though, is his improvisational flair: The drummer's daringly off-kilter punctuations, subtly elastic tempos and melodic tom-tom workouts make his gigs anything but routine. If you want to hear what famed critic Whitney Balliett meant when he called jazz the sound of surprise, head to Smalls on a Monday, and get there early to secure a good view of the drummer. (On July 9, Hoenig celebrates a new album, Lines of Oppression,at Cornelia Street Caf, just a few blocks southeast of Smalls.)
23. Arturo O'Farrill
Since the 1940s, New York City has been home base for the rise of Latin jazz, that explosive intersection of bebop's sophisticated harmonies with the vivacious rhythms of Cuba and Latin America. The tradition is alive and well today, thanks in no small part to pianist, composer and bandleader Arturo O'Farrill. Son of Havana legend Chico O'Farrill, Arturo leads the fiery big band that still bears his father's name. The Afro-Latin Jazz Orchestra, which the younger O'Farrill launched at Lincoln Center, now blazes at Symphony Space. Somehow, O'Farrill still finds time to lead smaller groups; what's more, his sons are now gigging as the O'Farrill Brothers, keeping the family legacy secure.
22. Muhal Richard Abrams
Muhal Richard Abrams will always be identified as a Chicago musician, since it was there that he cofounded the Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians—one of America's most enduring experimental-arts collectives—in 1965. But it was only ten years later that the pianist and composer moved to NYC, launched a satellite chapter of the organization and entered into an enormously fertile creative period (witness records like 1987's Colors in Thirty-Third). In addition to maintaining a busy performing and recording schedule (his solo and small-group improvisations are particularly mindblowing—check out the new two-disc set, SoundDance), Abrams also hosts the annual AACM concert series, about as warm and homey an affair as any avant-garde event could ever hope to be.
21. Mary Halvorson
The first time we encountered guitarist Mary Halvorson, she was sporting a buzz cut and an oversize guitar, out of which spilled dizzying lines that sounded like a vinyl LP spun backward. Since then, Halvorson has become a vital collaborator with such disparate artists as avant-garde professor Anthony Braxton, splatter-jazz advocate Weasel Walter and chameleonic jazz-rock bassist Trevor Dunn. She also forms half of a beguiling post-folk duo with violinist Jessica Pavone, and has lately emerged as a bandleader whose compositions skills rival her brilliantly unorthodox instrumental technique.
20. Tony Malaby
Even if you think you've never seen this protean saxophonist, composer and bandleader, you almost certainly have: From the moment Tony Malaby blew into town from Arizona in 1995, he seems to have been on one stage or another almost constantly. A versatile sideman and a compelling soloist who moves from inside to outside and back with ease, Malaby has enlivened projects led by Paul Motian, Kenny Werner, Tim Berne and Fred Hersch, to name only a few. Meanwhile, Malaby juggles multiple bands of his own, from the explosive trio he shares with his wife, pianist Angelica Sanchez, and drummer Tom Rainey, to Novela, the oversize group he's lately co-led with upstart pianist Kris Davis.
19. Matana Roberts
There are musicians who play jazz and there are those who truly create it. Matana Roberts is definitely among the latter. The saxophonist's Coin Coin series—the first volume of which has just been released on an outstanding CD, Gens De Couleur Libres—uses generations' worth of her family history as fodder for epic multimedia presentations. The result is jazz as polemical happening, works that stand alongside John Carter's Roots and Folklore and the programmatic presentations of Mingus, Ellington and Max Roach as half-celebratory, half-harrowing meditations on the African-American experience. Roberts's admirably refined yet straight-from-the-gut saxophone statements add another layer to her formidable arsenal.
18. Gretchen Parlato
New York has never lacked for prominent jazz singers, though vocalists have rarely enjoyed the serious cachet their instrumental counterparts take for granted—Cassandra Wilson, an exception, packed her bags some time ago. But Gretchen Parlato is emblematic of a bright new generation of singers now working in New York, who've applied consummate technical polish and respect for tradition with a burning need to refresh the canon and make it speak to younger audiences. First-prize winner in the 2004 Thelonious Monk International Jazz Vocals Competition, Parlato made leading figures like Wayne Shorter, Terence Blanchard and Kenny Barron into enthusiastic fans. Along with peers like Rebecca Martin, Becca Stevens and Jo Lawry, Parlato has overturned clichs to make jazz singing cool again.
17. Jon Irabagon
Even though what is often known as avant-garde jazz is a half-century old, the barrier between "inside" and "outside" jazz still persists. If the wall ever topples, we will have to thank Jon Irabagon, living proof that an improviser shouldn't have to take sides. In 2008, the Filipino-American won the Thelonious Monk International Sax Competition, a prestigious honor associated with the jazz mainstream, and he's excelled in that sphere onstage and on disc. At the same time, he's issued statements like 2009's I Don't Hear Nothin' but the Blues, a mercilessly extreme feat of sustained intensity, and worked with esteemed absurdist-bop quartet Mostly Other People Do the Killing. Foxy, from 2010, united all these facets of Irabagon's art in a refreshing, enigmatic whole, effectively signaling the death of jazz factionalism.
16. Fred Hersch
The facts of pianist Fred Hersch's life story—an openly gay artist in a world still steeped in cutting-contest machismo, and an HIV-positive man whose condition resulted in perilous illness and a two-month coma—can't overshadow his status as one of the most compelling performers and composers currently working in this city. Best known as a nonpareil trio player who favors drummers that prod and cajole him (among them Tom Rainey, Nasheet Waits and Paul Motian), Hersch is also a solo player so persuasive that he became the first pianist ever honored with a week of unaccompanied sets at the Village Vanguard. Increasingly, Hersch has also tackled projects of larger scale, including Leaves of Grass, a life-affirming Walt Whitman cantata, and My Coma Dreams, a new multimedia work inspired by Hersch's brush with delirium and mortality.
15. Lee Konitz
Already a scenemaker in the NYC of the '40s, Lee Konitz worked closely with bebop visionaries such as Lennie Tristano and Miles Davis, lending his patented plush, darting lines to the latter's essential Birth of the Cool. The altoist still hangs with heavyweights of his own generation—check out the newly released Live at Birdland, featuring Konitz contemporary Paul Motian—but what earns him a spot on this list is his generous attitude toward younger players. Whether working alongside saxist-arranger Ohad Talmor in a colorful nonet or improvising freely with daring pianist Dan Tepfer, the 83-year-old never coasts, consistently backing up his reputation among fellow musicians as a true guru of improvisation.
14. Fieldwork
A performance by Fieldwork might aptly be described as the revenge of the nerds. Saxist Steve Lehman (a former student of arch avant-jazz conceptualist Anthony Braxton), pianist Vijay Iyer (a math and physics whiz who holds a B.S. from Yale) and drummer Tyshawn Sorey (an astoundingly proficient player who reportedly boasts a photographic memory for scores) blaze through labyrinthine compositions with a high-wire flair that would make the snobbiest prog-rock fan swoon—not to mention a real sense of moment-to-moment risk. On their own, each of these musicians is a poll-topping star bandleader, but together their gifts are compounded, Voltron-style. If you want to know what state-of-the-art NYC jazz sounds like in 2011, this is the band to see.
13. Jason Moran
A Houston piano prodigy who hit town to study with piano iconoclasts Jaki Byard, Andrew Hill and Muhal Richard Abrams, Jason Moran first raised eyebrows in bands led by saxophonist Greg Osby (one of the modern era's ablest talent scouts). Now a revered leader and conceptualist with a MacArthur Foundation "genius" grant to show for it, Moran has shown an individualistic approach like those for which his mentors are cherished: a deep knowledge of history and repertoire combined with an irreverent streak that prompts him to push, prod and interrogate everything he knows. And the Bandwagon, Moran's longstanding combo with bassist Tarus Mateen and drummer Nasheet Waits, has broken every mold of trio interplay.
12. Randy Weston
Randy Weston's trademark is his championing of African-inflected jazz, a mission he's been on since he witnessed a lecture by musicologist Marshall Stearns while working as a dishwasher at a Berkshires resort in the '50s. Catch one of the lifelong Brooklynite's African Rhythms projects and you'll be treated to a musical discourse on the hidden roots of a great American art form. But you don't need to be a scholar to appreciate Weston's keyboard mastery, which, like that of his slightly older peer and friend Thelonious Monk, embodies a perfect marriage of idiosyncrasy and warmth. Even when he flirts with abstraction, the 85-year-old always sounds emotionally engaged and fully committed to a style that isn't African, or bop, or blues, or free—it's just Weston.
11. Matthew Shipp
You may have heard about Matthew Shipp's notorious orneriness (he'll dis respected jazz icons to any interviewer who polls him) or his penchant for genre-bending experiments (check out the new Knives from Heaven, featuring rhymes from Antipop Consortium). But what really earns the local fixture a spot on this list is his stormily gorgeous pianism—the perfect marriage of impressionist reverie and free-jazz passion—and unimpeachable improvisational instincts. For a representative taste, consult Shipp's handsome recent double-disc set, Art of the Improviser.
10. Maria Schneider
Big bands are a longstanding tradition in New York City, where the Vanguard Jazz Orchestra and the Mingus Big Band still pack houses on Monday nights. But the genre got a major jolt of new vitality with the 1985 arrival of composer and bandleader Maria Schneider, whose groundbreaking residency at the late, lamented Village club Visiones extended the sophisticated work of her mentors, Gil Evans and Bob Brookmeyer. Increasingly busy in the classical world, Schneider leads her band less frequently, which makes its every appearance a must-see event; meanwhile, spiritual progeny like John Hollenbeck, Darcy James Argue and Joseph C. Phillips have continued to explore trails Schneider helped to blaze.
9. Ornette Coleman
Once a controversial maverick much derided by establishment tastemakers, Texas-born saxophonist, composer and bandleader Ornette Coleman has quietly become an elder statesman over the past half century: His homespun melodies and freewheeling rhythmic conceptions are accepted as gospel throughout the jazz world. Yet at 80, Coleman retains his gently eccentric mystery; he's a chimerical philosopher who plays here annually at best, though his presence fans out well beyond his midtown doorstep, fueling New York's unquenchable creative flame.
8. Ethan Iverson
Ten years ago, Ethan Iverson was the piano player in the Bad Plus, an upstart trio that garnered hype and scorn in equal measure for covering "Smells Like Teen Spirit" and other modern standards. A decade on, that core fact hasn't changed: The Bad Plus has persevered and thrived—its excellent 2010 album, Never Stop (made up of all original pieces), felt like a definitive statement. But via his peerless blog, Do the Math, and his meaningful engagement with veteran players like Billy Hart and Albert Heath, Iverson has simultaneously established himself as perhaps NYC's most thoughtful and passionate student of jazz tradition—the most admirable sort of artist-scholar.
7. Tim Berne
John Zorn soaked up much of the media attention with his splashy genre-colliding experiments such as Naked City, but based purely on the recorded evidence, it may very well have been Tim Berne who was the definitive genius of NYC's downtown 1980s jazz scene. (Check out Fulton Street Maul or Fractured Fairy Tales if you need proof.) In the intervening years, Zorn has moved well beyond the small-group-jazz sphere, but Berne has remained committed to exploring that idiom with a series of gritty, head-turning projects, including Bloodcount in the '90s, Hardcell in the aughts and currently, Los Totopos: all bands that have helped propel younger players such as Jim Black, Craig Taborn and Ches Smith into alt-jazz stardom. Factor in Berne's prolific and charmingly irreverent Screwgun label and his busy local performance schedule, and you've got an unassuming legend on your hands.
6. Cecil Taylor
It's been a half century since Cecil Taylor has played anything resembling what is conventionally called jazz, with clearly delineated themes, an orderly progression of solos or a foot-tapping pulse. But like Lena Horne and the many other vocal divas he's more likely to cite as an influence than, say, another pianist, he revels in the mode of the unabashedly dramatic, soul-baring performance. Whether attacking the piano or caressing it (or stamping on the floor around it, in one of his frequent preconcert dance expositions), the Queens-born, Brooklyn-residing 82-year-old never fails to reignite the listener's belief in the dead-seriousness of American improvised music. Taylor's marathon recitals—solo is still the best mode in which to catch him—remain the definitive un--background music, thrillingly unfettered rejoinders to anyone who thinks of jazz as a mere lifestyle accoutrement.
5. Roy Haynes
Roy Haynes is a jazz legend, sure, but not the kind you have to take on faith. That is to say, if you go hear this 85-year-old drumming marvel today—and you should catch his Fountain of Youth band whenever possible—you will be hearing him at his best, not as a shade of the Roy Haynes that played with Lester Young in the '40s, Charlie Parker and Sarah Vaughn in the '50s, or Eric Dolphy and Chick Corea in the '60s. In terms of combining improvisational brilliance with old-school showmanship (not to mention the rakish charm that earned him a spot on a 1960 Esquire best-dressed list), Haynes is simply peerless.
4. Henry Threadgill
Jazz has produced few more original composers than Henry Threadgill, a Chicago saxophonist and flutist whose every project has been more distinctive and compelling than the one that came before it. From his arrival during the '70s as a member of prescient collaborative trio Air (which also featured the late Fred Hopkins and Steve McCall), Threadgill proceeded through avant-gutbucket stomps with his ebullient Sextett, bawdy carnival sounds in Very Very Circus and hypnotic grooves with Make a Move, to arrive at Zooid, a group that fuses elements of everything that came before it with Threadgill's growing penchant for chamber-music transparency. Factor in Threadgill's always penetrating playing as well as the frequency with which he workshops his inventions for the public, and he's reason enough to celebrate being a New Yorker.
3. Wynton Marsalis
Given his plum position as artistic director of Jazz at swanky Lincoln Center, his partnership with Jazz documentarian Ken Burns and his naturally garrulous personality, it's tough not to see Wynton Marsalis as more figurehead than musician. But if you clear away all the obfuscating debates about uptown and downtown, and the wholly subjective canonization of jazz, you're left with a still-phenomenal trumpeter, composer and bandleader. Leading a quintet and a septet at Rose Theater earlier this year, Marsalis was magisterial, presenting vital original works that hummed with the auras of Ellington, Parker and Armstrong. This controversial figure may revere tradition, but he's in no way shackled by it.
2. William Parker
Were William Parker simply the earthy, elemental bassist who anchored Cecil Taylor's legendary Feel Trio and a rock-solid sideman to leaders like Peter Brtzmann and David S. Ware, his mark in jazz would be assured. Factor in his work with seminal free-jazz collaborative Other Dimensions in Music and his own ambitious big band, the Little Huey Orchestra (and satellite projects like a rousing Curtis Mayfield tribute group), and Parker's stature looms larger still. But apart from those imposing achievements, he can claim an even larger legacy: With his wife, dancer-choreographer Patricia Nicholson, in 1996 Parker founded the Vision Festival, one of the city's most important and inclusive celebrations of artistic cross-pollination and spiritual unity.
1. Paul Motian
If you were surveying the NYC jazz scene in the late '50s, you might have pegged Paul Motian merely as a masterful accompanist, citing his role in pianist Bill Evans's celebrated trio. Five decades on, though, the drummer seems more rightly classified as a shaman. The bands he leads brush up against familiar jazz stylings, but always radiate a palpable sense of mystery and creeping abstraction. (He loves bringing along virtuoso sidemen, young and old, to revel in the weirdness.) Deepening Motian's mythology is the fact that he now performs only in NYC—catching him on his home turf at the Village Vanguard is like paying a visit to the Sphinx.
Where are J. ONeil and B. Harris?
Willingly I accept.

USC led by three Pac-12 champs, looking to return to top 10.
Vissering Wins Pac-12 Title In 200 Breast, Carter 2nd In 200 Free
Trojans finish third night in third place in tight battle.
Malone 3rd In 500 Free, USC Second After Second Night Of Pac-12 Championships
Trojans put four in A finals overall.
THIS SEASON: Vladimir Morozov, a 2012 Olympic bronze medalist and European Short Course Championships gold medalist who moved from Russia to the U.S. six years ago, is a 2013 junior who is among the NCAA's top sprinters. USC's fastest ever in the 50y and 100y free, he looks to defend Pac-12 titles in both races this year while also looking to improve on his NCAA top 3 finishes in both events. In addition to holding USC's records in the 50y and 100y free, he shares schools marks in the 200y and 400y free relays and the 200y and 400y medley relays and is the second-fastest at USC in the 100y back.
2012: Morozov had a mammoth year as a 2012 sophomore, his four NCAA All-American honors only a foreshadow to his international success later in the calendar. For the second year in a row, Morozov was a two-time NCAA finalist in the 50y and 100y free, improving on both as a sophomore. He took second in the 50y free in 19.08, 0.07 out of first and 0.02 off his school record. He also became the first Trojan to earn back-to-back All-American honors in the race since Bjorn Zikarsky in 1990-91. In the 100y free, Morozov took third in 42.44. Morozov also led off USC's sixth-place 200y free relay and its fourth-place 400y free relay ... At the 2012 Pac-12 Championships, Morozov won USC's first conference title in the 50y free since 1996 and Troy's first in the 100y free since 1992 - and was the first Trojan to win both in the same meet since 1977. Morozov, who was also sixth in the 200y free, also led USC's 200y and 400y free relays to second-place finishes that were a combined 0.29 seconds out of first place ... Morozov earned a spot on the Russian Olympic team after the NCAAs and made the most of it. He helped Russia to a bronze in the 400m free relay, swimming the third leg. He finished tied for 10th in the 100m back prelims, but gave up his spot in the semifinals to save energy for his same-day relay swim. Morozov also swam on Russia's 12th-place 400m medley relay. Morozov won seven medals, including two golds, at the 2012 European Short Course Championships in Chartres, France, in late November. He won gold in the 100m free (45.68) and the 100m IM (51.89). Morozov was also second in the 50m free (20.89) and won bronze in the 50m back (23.47). Morozov also picked up three silvers on the 200m free and medley relays and the mixed 200m free relay.
2011: Morozov, the 2011 Pac-10 Newcomer of the Year, put together one of USC's all-time best freshman seasons, becoming a four-time All-American, a three-time Pac-10 finalist and breaking a pair of school records - the 50y and 100y free - a combined 12 times. Morozov earned All-American honors with his fourth-place finish in the 100y free (41:88, PR) at the 2011 NCAA Championships and sixth-place in the 50y free (19.38) and by leading USC's 400y free relay to third place and its 200y free relay to fifth. His time in the 100y free marked the seventh time on the year he lowered the mark in the event. Prior to the season, the school record had stood since 1991 ... Going head-to-head with Cal senior champion Nathan Adrian at the 2011 Pac-10s, Morozov took second in both the 50y (19.06, PR) and 100y free (41.93). His 50 time yet again lowered his school record while his prelim time in the 100y (41.92) reset that mark. He was also third in the 100y back (46.90) approaching USC's long-time record in the event (46.55) ... Morozov was fourth in the 50y free and third in the 100y free at the 2010 U.S. Short Course Championships in December and also helped USC to a win in the 200y free relay. He earned national swimmer of the week notice for his efforts.
HIGH SCHOOL: Morozov, who moved to the U.S. as a prep freshman, attended Torrance (Calif.) High by way of Siberia and was named Swimming World's 2010 Male High School Swimmer of the Year. The five-time prep All-American as a senior finished his brilliant high school career by setting national high school records at the 2010 CIF Southern Section Division III Championships and at the 2010 CIF Southern Section Masters Meet. His first record came at the CIF Division III Championships, where his opening 50 yards of the 200y free relay (19.43) broke a national mark. After winning CIF titles in the 100y fly and the 100y back for the second year in a row, he came back at the CIF Masters meet to lead off a 400y free relay with a 42.87 for another national high school record. He also won Masters titles in the 100y fly (47.97) and 100y back (47.55). Those times, as well as his 42.87 in the 100y free and a 19.55 in the 50y free were all Masters records ... The 2009 and 2010 South Bay Daily Breeze Swimmer of the Year, he won the 100m free at the 2008 Junior Nationals. His 19.96 was the fastest time in California in the 2008-09 prep season, his 48.78 in the 100y back was second fastest and his 44.98 was fourth fastest.
CLUB/COACH: Swim Torrance/Mike Kauffman and Jon Carroll.
PERSONAL: Born June 16, 1992 ... He is an economics major.

With record breaking heat lately out here in southern California, wearing a Boba or Jango costume may become unbearable. So I searched around the web and found this as a solution to provide relief in the hot climates. They sell for $150 each. I'm thinking maybe the coolant canister and the mechanism can be hidden in the suit pouch (if it fits) or inside the jet pack. Here is a description straight from the site itself.
The Port-a-Cool System is developed specifically for those applications that cannot accommodate a cooling unit, Port-a-Cool is an easy, affordable way to get quick, instantaneous relief from the heat. A CFC-Free, non-flammable Freezing Agent is supplied on demand to the COOL SHIRT making this system a favorite among kart drivers, motorcyclists, drag racers, etc.
The system comes standard with a heavy duty 100% cotton HANS-Friendly COOL SHIRT with over 50 feet of medical grade capillary tubing securely stitched to the front and back of the garment.
Systems Includes:
One 12 oz. Can of Port-a-Cool CFC-Free, non-flammable Freezing Agent
Sturdy Can Holder that can be mounted or hung from the drivers belt
100% Cotton HANS-Friendly COOL SHIRT with connectors (select size)

Brett Finlay is a professor in the Michael Smith Laboratories, and the Departments of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, and Microbiology and Immunology at the University of British Columbia.
His research program focuses on E. coli, how it interacts with the cells of the human gut, and mouse models of E. coli-like infections. Dr. Finlay will speak at the conference on Beneficial Microbes in San Diego this October, where he'll describe the results of some of his latest research, which examines how E. coli infections effect the microbes that live in our guts.
Sadly, outbreaks of Escherichia coli infections in this country are common – just this summer a huge E. coli outbreak in Oklahoma sickened nearly 300 people and sent 67 of them to the hospital. Clearly, in an outbreak, not everyone is effected equally. When lots of people are exposed to E. coli, why do some of those people walk away unharmed while others wind up in the I.C.U.? Dr. Finlay would say part of the answer, at least, probably lies in which microbes live in our intestine.
In this podcast, I talked with Dr. Finlay about why we have so many different kinds of microbes in our guts, what happens to them when E. coli strikes, and why we have a long way to go before probiotics offer help – and not just hope.

FIFO village approved for Isa
01 February 2013 , 2:02 PM by Emma Cillekens
An accommodation village which will house more than 1000 people near Mount Isa's airport has been approved.
The Stockland Village development application for more than 960 single-resident units and 40 townhouses on Killara Crescent was unanimously approved at council meeting this week.
Mount Isa Mayor Tony McGrady says it's a good thing for the city.
"We believed that it will lift the standard of accommodation in the city," he said.
"And while people say it will be a fly-in fly-out accommodation village, we don't accept that."
He said the council did make some changes to the proposed accommodation village, including rejecting the building of three bedroom townhouses and removing a tavern from the plans.
The development application received 13 objections.
Some raised concerns about the potential for the development to be a fly-in fly-out village.

Visualization is the graphic presentation of data -- portrayals meant to reveal complex information at a glance. Think of the familiar map of the New York City subway system, or a diagram of the human brain. Successful visualizations are beautiful not only for their aesthetic design, but also for elegant layers of detail that efficiently generate insight and new understanding.
This book examines the methods of two dozen visualization experts who approach their projects from a variety of perspectives -- as artists, designers, commentators, scientists, analysts, statisticians, and more. Together they demonstrate how visualization can help us make sense of the world.
Contributors include:
Nick Bilton,Michael E. Driscoll,Jonathan Feinberg,Danyel Fisher,Jessica Hagy,Gregor Hochmuth,Todd Holloway,Noah Iliinsky,Eddie Jabbour,Valdean Klump,Aaron Koblin,Robert Kosara,Valdis Krebs,JoAnn Kuchera-Morin et al.,Andrew Odewahn,Adam Perer,Anders Persson,Maximilian Schich,Matthias Shapiro,Julie Steele,Moritz Stefaner,Jer Thorp,Fernanda Viegas,Martin Wattenberg,and Michael Young.

Low quality PDF E-book graphics
By Ebook Guy
from Portland, OR
I just purchased this as a PDF after receiving a promotional email. I've thumbed through the printed book in the bookstore, and I remember it as a fairly slick-looking volume. I was disappointed to open the PDF and find it rendered with mostly low-quality graphical figures... many so grainy they aren't even legible. I expected more from a book about visualization. Bandwidth and disc space are cheap[...]
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Welcome from Northeast Ohio!
Excellent choice you made btw. Sigs are awesome. And. 40 caliber is sweet too
I am so glad I found this forum. I am picking up my first firearm this evening, a Sig P239 in .40cal. I have perused this forum for a few weeks now, picking up loads of information for a first-time firearm-owner. I must say, many here know their stuff!
I look forward to conversing with the fine folks here, as well as sharing any knowledge that I might acquire with other first-time buyers.
Take care,
Welcome from Northeast Ohio!
Excellent choice you made btw. Sigs are awesome. And. 40 caliber is sweet too
Welcome from Northeast Ohio. Excellent choice you made in that Sig.
Thanks, I'm excited/anxious/nervous - all around giddy to get it tonight. A Sig wasn't my first choice, but with the recent "shortage" of pistols in my area and my delays in "pulling the trigger" it was just about the only thing left on the shelve. I'm very comfortable with the .40cal - my wife and I spent a couple of boxes through a Glock 23 and an H&K P2000sk (and a few others as well), and we decided we both loved the feel of the 40 versus a 9mm.
But I believe this is only the first of what may be many firearms in our not-so-distant future. Thanks for the welcoming!
It's like eating a Lay's potato chip you have to have more than one.
Hi and welcome....I have owned a Glock 23 and an HK as well, the Sig P239 handles the .40 cartridge better than either of them almost as if it were made for it.....
