"From the moment I first spoke with Alan Wagner I felt like someone had my back. That alone made me feel so much better immediately. From there he stuck by me, answered my questions, gave me excellent advice and got my case resolved. He is amazing!!! He is the first one I will turn to if I have any legal issues and the first one I will recommend. I can't thank you enough."- DavePosted on August 11, 2017
"After receiving some horrific dental work, I turned to Jason Whittemore for assistance. He listened to my case, made suggestions and then took action! He was professional, attentive and knowledgeable. In addition, because he was able to settle the case without going to court, he didn't charge me a penny! You can't ask for better representation. Thank you Jason and team for all you have done for me."- LuciePosted on Avvo on March 15, 2017
"Michael McLaughlin's name was provided to me from a close friend, so I realized immediately that this will be a great choice for my case. Everyone knows word of mouth from a close friend or family member for any type of service is solid. This was evident when I first met Michael 4 days after my accident when he arrived at my private residence. I reached out to him via phone call when I got home from the hospital and he wanted to come to my house the next day to get started - no time was wasted. He was very empathetic, down to earth, and honest with me and my wife concerning what to expect in the next 6 months with my case. He was spot on relating to expectations and what he could make possible in my favor to ease my stress as the months passed. He was devoted and hardworking along with his legal assistant Sharon keeping me aware of the progress of my case and relentless in reducing my medical bills and battling with the insurance companies. Michael also unexpectedly and drastically reduce his fees in order to provide us with additional funds we honestly never expected to obtain. He received an Excellent Rating because he earned it - Thanks Michael for what you accomplished for me and my family. High Recommended! Devoted - Hardworking - Relentless!"- JohnPosted on Avvo on February 23, 2017
"I hired Michael McLaughlin after being involved in a vehicle accident with injury. Michael was very easy to talk with and did not use legal verbiage but explained it very clearly and supported his concerns with clear documentation for my review. The entire time Michael kept me informed of the process and procedures and how each step was important my input and understanding would instrumental to the outcome of my case. His professionalism did not intimate but actually made me comfortable and confident i had hired the right person to protect my interest in this case were not minimized."- DouglasPosted on January 27, 2017
"They Fought the Big Guys and Won. After years of litigation against one of the largest corporations in the world, Alan Wagner and his team will be delivering a huge check from the defendants. Thank You. It pays to have a Board Certified Trial Lawyer."- W.F. CaseyPosted on November 22, 2016
"Mr. Kevin McLaughlin took the time to reply to my questions and concerns relating to a recent incident. I also like that he and the other attorneys in his firm have much experience in specific areas of the law."- RickPosted on October 17, 2016
"Alan Wagner took our case when numerous other lawyers would not. Though he knew that his return on investment would be low, he was willing to accept the case on principle. My wife and I didn't even have time to stop celebrating the fact that someone was willing to take the case before he actually had it settled. All along we were concerned about how much of our money we would ever be able to get back and he got every dime returned to us, with the payment plan in place in a matter of days from accepting the case. I can't say enough about his professionalism, demeanor, and knowledge."- ChrisPosted on Avvo, July 23, 2015
"I could go on and on about Mr. Alan Wagner. I contacted him via his website and 30 minutes later I was on the phone with him himself. I explained my situation and while we were still on the phone he had sent a runner to the courthouse to get information that I would not have known how to get. He walked me through the entire process and, what had taken years with another attorney, took care of everything in about 90 days."- ChrisPosted on Avvo, January 3, 2012
"Michael McLaughlin came highly recommended to me by another member of the legal profession. I was told that he and his firm were professional, highly esteemed and ethical as well which was very important to me. Michael was always available to me whether by phone or email. If I had to leave a message, I always heard back from him very quickly. When I thanked him for his time, he always reminded me that he was working for me. Michael kept me fully informed throughout the entire process and was thoughtful and kind. He was always honest and gave me realistic expectations."- TamiPosted on Avvo, November 17, 2015
"Mr. Jason Whittemore is a sharp, very responsive, attentive, professional. He always politely spoke the facts. He kept me informed at all times. The end result was that we won. He is the sole reason for winning this unusual case. I highly recommend Mr. Whittemore and if I need an attorney in the future he is first on my list."- AimeePosted on Avvo, March 1, 2016
"Kevin McLaughlin is one of the most honest and hard working people that my husband and I have had the pleasure to deal with. We would both highly recommend him and his whole firm to anyone seeking legal assistance."- LauraPosted on Avvo, September 22, 2015
"Alan Wagner provided my sisters and I excellent advice that included a referral to an excellent Tampa estate attorney who was able to clean up a mess created by a Sarasota estate attorney we had hired and another our mother had hired thinking she was preparing her estate carefully. He was always very generous of his time as a sage advisor even though he had no financial gain from our case."- Karen Giroux

Adafruit Perma-Proto Quarter-sized Breadboard PCB (3pk)
When people build prototypes they usually start with a solderless breadboard and then transfer the parts to a more permanent PCB. Adafruit decided what people would really like is a proto board that makes it easy!
This proto-board is the PCB you always wish you had, but never realised it! Adafruit took the basic layout of a quarter-sized breadboard (basically, a 'tiny' breadboard plus power rails) and turned that into a beautiful PCB. The top side has a white silkscreen, and the same markings you are familiar with, to make transferring components easy. The bottom has the 5-hole pad design that matches a classic breadboard, with 4 power bus lines on the sides, and no mask so you can easily cut traces when necessary. The drill holes are 1.2mm diameter, so even parts with big leads will fit. All holes are thru-plated for strength - these wont peel off with rework. The finish is a gold plate - you won't get oxidation like with bare copper perf! There are also two mounting holes so you can attach the PCB to your project box.
These are so handy, we decided to put them in a pack of 3. Once you use a Perma-Proto board, you'll never go back!

gettimeofday, settimeofday - get / set time
#include <sys/time.h> int gettimeofday(struct timeval *tv, struct timezone *tz); int settimeofday(const struct timeval *tv, const struct timezone *tz); Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)): settimeofday(): _BSD_SOURCE
The functions gettimeofday() and settimeofday() can get and set the time as well as a timezone. The tv argument is a struct timeval (as specified in <sys/time.h>): struct timeval { time_t tv_sec; /* seconds */ suseconds_t tv_usec; /* microseconds */ }; and gives the number of seconds and microseconds since the Epoch (see time(2)). The tz argument is a struct timezone: struct timezone { int tz_minuteswest; /* minutes west of Greenwich */ int tz_dsttime; /* type of DST correction */ }; If either tv or tz is NULL, the corresponding structure is not set or returned. The use of the timezone structure is obsolete; the tz argument should normally be specified as NULL. The tz_dsttime field has never been used under Linux; it has not been and will not be supported by libc or glibc. Each and every occurrence of this field in the kernel source (other than the declaration) is a bug. Thus, the following is purely of historic interest. The field tz_dsttime contains a symbolic constant (values are given below) that indicates in which part of the year Daylight Saving Time is in force. (Note: its value is constant throughout the year: it does not indicate that DST is in force, it just selects an algorithm.) The daylight saving time algorithms defined are as follows : DST_NONE /* not on dst */ DST_USA /* USA style dst */ DST_AUST /* Australian style dst */ DST_WET /* Western European dst */ DST_MET /* Middle European dst */ DST_EET /* Eastern European dst */ DST_CAN /* Canada */ DST_GB /* Great Britain and Eire */ DST_RUM /* Rumania */ DST_TUR /* Turkey */ DST_AUSTALT /* Australian style with shift in 1986 */ Of course it turned out that the period in which Daylight Saving Time is in force cannot be given by a simple algorithm, one per country; indeed, this period is determined by unpredictable political decisions. So this method of representing timezones has been abandoned. Under Linux, in a call to settimeofday() the tz_dsttime field should be zero. Under Linux there are some peculiar "warp clock" semantics associated with the settimeofday() system call if on the very first call (after booting) that has a non-NULL tz argument, the tv argument is NULL and the tz_minuteswest field is nonzero. In such a case it is assumed that the CMOS clock is on local time, and that it has to be incremented by this amount to get UTC system time. No doubt it is a bad idea to use this feature. Macros for operating on timeval structures are described in timeradd(3).
gettimeofday() and settimeofday() return 0 for success, or -1 for failure (in which case errno is set appropriately).
EFAULT One of tv or tz pointed outside the accessible address space. EINVAL Timezone (or something else) is invalid. EPERM The calling process has insufficient privilege to call settimeofday(); under Linux the CAP_SYS_TIME capability is required.
SVr4, 4.3BSD. POSIX.1-2001 describes gettimeofday() but not settimeofday(). POSIX.1-2008 marks gettimeofday() as obsolete, recomending the use of clock_gettime(2) instead.
Traditionally, the fields of struct timeval were of type long.
date(1), adjtimex(2), time(2), ctime(3), ftime(3), capabilities(7), time(7)

Gunnar Johansen and Harry Partch | |
My personal thanks to Lucie Marshall for allowing me to reprint this article. A copy of the article was sent to me by a visitor to the Meadows, Steve Shain; the original article appeared in the quarterly journal Ridge Review, published locally for the Northern California coast. Ms. Marshall still makes her home in this rugged coastal area, and it has been a real joy to have met her in conversation. This article puts in perspective some of the early hurdles Harry had to deal with, and shows the devotion he inspired in others. If you are interested only in the stuff about Partch, you can skip to here, but then you'd be cheating yourself. | |

The first professional musician to settle on the South Coast was Gunnar Johansen. In love with ideas, airplanes, Romantic music, his motorcycle and pretty girls, this handsome Dane left his homeland while still a very young man to study with Egon Petri in the Bay Area. There he soon became known for his weekly radio broadcasts and the artistry he displayed in his many concerts -and his enthusiastic sociability. In the mid-thirties, with his friend George Everson, who often could he persuaded to sing for small gatherings, and who loved piano music, he also fell in love with the Coast, and at the suggestion of the Ratcliff family, bought the old Zarucchi ranch north of Anchor Bay. There he settled into the original Civil War-period farmhouse, set far up a challenging dirt road and over an equally challenging old bridge, while George built a new house higher on the ridge. In his tiny white farmhouse Gunnar spent long summers, composing, practicing and reveling in Coast life with his wife, Lorraine, until his death in the spring of 1991. For many years their days here had to be mainly summer ones: Early on Gunnar's taste in music and his natural love for the company of all sorts of scholars led him to become the first Artist-In-Residence in this country, at the University of Wisconsin. In an old stone house outside Madison, in Blue Mounds, he established his magnificent studio with its variety of pianos, a harpsichord, even a two-keyboard concert grand. There he practiced, set forth on tours, taught, composed, and recorded. On Fridays at the University, his weekly music history lecture drew so many students that it had to be cut off at 750 - all the hall would hold. He loved those afternoons as much as the students loved his stories, insights into music, and playing. The Madison appointment suited him well: it gave him freedom to concentrate on the Romantic music he preferred, and it gave him time to spend in Gualala at his ranch. And perhaps even most important, it gave him the freedom to indulge his curiosity about all sorts of new ideas in the sciences and medicine. He was as happy taking part in a conference on, say, the future sources of energy, as he was on the concert stage. Many Coast residents remember his delight in watching the sparks fly between Bucky Fuller and Edward Teller at a conference on future energy sources he had helped to organize at The Sea Ranch. He enjoyed roaming about the Ridges making friends, and, always generous with his music, welcomed neighbors many an evening. Gathered around a kerosene lamp on his old kitchen table, they reveled in music that went tumbling out into the old apple orchard and the darkening redwood forest beyond. After these evenings, the neighbors, returning to their cars by flashlight, enriched both by music and by Gunnar's sense of awe and wonder,and basking in the glow of Lorraine's hospitality, marveled at this mix of music and ideas. Here, after all, was concert pianist whose license plates read "HYDROG," short for hydrogen - to Gunnar the only energy source that made sense for the world of the future. Driving back down the road, his guests could hear the last faint notes from the huge Bechstein concert grand, a magnificent instrument that occupied almost all of the tiny living room. But there were times also when Gunnar still played on the first piano he acquired - a sturdy Steinway upright. The Steinway came up the Coast in l936 in a monstrous wooden crate, and because Gunnar was away at the time, the crate sat for months on the porch of the Gualala Hotel, until he returned and could get it trucked up the hill. After Gunnar's death, The Bechstein went off one rainy December night, wrestled out of its home and onto a huge piano truck by a skillful and adventuresome piano mover from Sherman-Clay. This gentleman will no doubt never forget his experience - and will never come again. Before the operation was over, the piano truck, which had already picked up three other Steinway grands and which had been driven all the way from Seattle, had buried its nose in a deep muddy ditch, suffered the indignity of rescue by come-along and eventually, chains. But the old upright is still there, its tone as full and true as ever, and these days it is the former students who return to visit with Lorraine and play on long summer evenings. While Gunnar swam with exuberance in the stream of the Western classical musical tradition, he was never closed-minded about innovation. From the first moment he heard the music of Harry Partch - in the early '40s with Otto Luening in New York - he became a fan. And that is how Harry, whose life had been a continual struggle for existence, wound up with an appointment at the University of Wisconsin at Madison. He had been barely surviving in any number of places, from a brief collaboration in Ireland with Yeats to life on the road as a hobo during the Great Depression. The Music Department refused to touch him; the appointment Gunnar wangled for him was in one of the sciences. About the time of his first meeting with Gunnar, Harry had written: I am first and last a composer. I have become provoked into becoming a musical theorist, an instrument builder, a musical apostate, and a musical idealist, simply because I have been a demanding composer. I hold no wish for the obsolescence of the widely heard instruments and music. My devotion to our musical heritage is great and critical. I feel that more ferment is necessary to a healthy musical culture. I am endeavoring to instill more ferment. While at Madison he supplied plenty of ferment by giving concerts and lectures, and by his book, Genesis of a Music, published in 1949 by the University Press; and by his activities there: composing, writing, building instruments, and by issuing a limited series of recording of his early work. But as ferment mounted, the funds ran out, so Gunnar offered Harry, faced again with homelessness, the former blacksmith shop in Gualala on his ranch, Azalean. And that, in turn, is how Harry moved on, this time driving an old Studebaker and hauling a trailer containing all of his possessions and the precious instruments, to 'The Smithy," a one-room cabin studio-home. The Smithy he soon transformed into a snug, attractive workplace, complete with a huge rock fireplace, wood cookstove, astoundingly original water system and attractive outhouse. The seat for the latter came from an old wagon he found in the barn; it had scrolled metal handles at either end. And the shell of the building? It was the old Steinway packing crate, with the words "STEINWAY" stenciled across the interior ceiling - an irony that was certainly not lost on Harry, and was probably intentional. The year was 1949. In the summer, a small band of faithful disciples gathered. Harry was first joined by the late Larry Marshall, a physicist from Berkeley with whom he shared support from the Guggenheim Foundation. From North Carolina came composer Ben Johnston and his wife, Betty, a painter. In the ensuing weeks a variety of graduate students in music and the sciences appeared, mostly from Berkeley, with rather loose affiliation with the School of Music. With time these disciples became adept at playing Harry's instruments, reading his notation, and understanding the 43-tone-to-the-octave scale he had developed, along with at least a partial grasp of the complex mathematics involved. To Gualala Harry had brought an adapted parlor organ called the Chromelodeon; an adapted guitar and viola; a diamond-shaped marimba; two standing stringed instruments called the harmonic canon and the kithara. All of these beautifully crafted, sculpted instruments were set up in the tiny Smithy, where the group rehearsed, labored away, and learned how hard it was to please Harry. Life with Harry was far from easy. In poor health, lonely (although he always claimed he didn't want even any disciples), hating the Coast climate, often depressed, he was a trying companion and a severely uncompromising guru. He could summon up a surprising amount of creative energy at times, often coming up with ingenious solutions to problems caused by living and making music without telephone, electricity or much else; the group who gathered about him lacked almost all the skills appropriate to survival in a rural environment. Bravely and with hilarity they discovered ways of hauling vast amounts of salt water up the hill in order to cook live crabs from the Point Arena Wharf. They became adept at catching chickens bought from a neighbor, then killing, plucking and cleaning them. They could quickly switch from a session with the 43-tone scale to the wood pile and a large cross-cut saw. By the time they'd figured out how to get a garden in, Harry had moved on and they were left to go their own ways, enriched by what they had absorbed of his musical philosophy and by their own small successes in communal country living. The major part of Harry's philosophy he had worked out during the 1920's, when his aim, according to musicologist Tom McGeary of the University of Illinois, had been to: create a monophonic and corporeal music that returned to what he believed was the primal, ritualistic, corporeal state that music had long ago abandoned: a music arising from human speech and the natural acoustic musical intervals generated by sounding bodies; a music no longer estranged from the physical production of sound: a music where the audience experiences an integration of drama, dancers, and performing musicians. In Gualala Harry had composed, written, and built a new, enormous and booming bass marimba, and a series of percussion instruments created from the discarded tops of huge glass jars from the Radiation Laboratory at Berkeley. The bottoms had been cut off to make cloud chambers for the Physics Department. Although the mathematics involved in these designs was often beyond members of his Gualala group, they could all be of help in finding materials and in construction. During the time in Gualala Harry also moved beyond his early bardic songs and settings from Chinese poetry, Shakespeare, biblical verses and hobo texts to large theater pieces integrating dance and drama. A major accomplishment during the Gualala days was the recording of a sizable body of his work that was subsequently issued on records available commercially. The recording sessions themselves turned out to be as adventurous as living at Azalean, conducted as they were with a portable generator and a high level of emotional instability. From Gualala Harry went on to a long series of short-term stays - in Petaluma, at Mills, at Yellow Springs, at Urbana where he collaborated unhappily with Alwin Nikolais. Through the years came an increasing number of awards and professional recognition: Harry finally wound up living in San Diego, where he enjoyed the warm sun and the equally warm support of a group headed by Danlee Mitchell. He died there in 1974. Unfortunately for the world of music, there is only one set of his instruments in existence: it is now in New York, in the care of a group called "NewBand." Harry never made much of an impression on the Gualala community, whose generosity and energy often irritated him. Aloof and withdrawn he worked away at Azalean never giving local performances or attempting much contact with his neighbors. The friends he made were mostly people who helped him out: Walter Tock kept the old car running and the road open. Jimmy MacNamee, with his usual intense intellectual curiosity, learned all he could about Harry's music in addition to supplying his needs from the store, handling his mail and messages and depositing a rather odd series visitors on his doorstep. Present-day Coast residents who are familiar with Harry's work are often surprised learn that he ever lived in the area all. And the '40s Coast residents who did become aware of him at the time most certainly considered him to be quite mad.
Going back to humanity's very earliest ways of hearing and making music
actually pushed Harry Partch ahead his time. In a mere local context, he
could have been ahead of his time on the Coast as well: If he'd hit the
South Coast 20 years later, in the '60s, he might have been regarded as
more of pied piper and less of a March hare. |

That sunscreen you dutifully spray throughout the day could actually get you burned.
We're not talking sunburn. We're talking people bursting into flames because they're wearing sunscreen.
Last year, the Food and Drug Administration recorded five incidents in which people were burned after their sunscreen caught on fire. One person was hurt after lighting a cigarette. Another stood near a citronella candle.
One man in Massachusetts applied spray sunscreen and then went to tend his backyard grill. The flames leapt to his arm, then traveled to his torso. He suffered second-degree burns and was treated in a hospital burn unit.
And a woman in Norfolk, Va., applied spray sunscreen, waited several minutes for the product to dry, and then turned on a welding torch, a local TV station reported. "My whole arm went on fire," she told the station.
Many spray sunscreens include alcohol or other flammable ingredients.
In these cases, the people had used Banana Boat sunscreen sprays. The brand's corporate parent, Energizer Holdings Inc., recalledthose products last fall.
The problems appear to have been caused by a spray valve opening that "dispenses more than is typical in the industry for continuous sun care sprays," according to the recall notice.
A spokeswoman for Energizer Holdings told Shots via email that the company has redesigned the spray valve:
We redesigned the delivery mechanism and rigorously tested it through our comprehensive safety and quality assurance processes. New products began shipping in November 2012.
But people should be careful with all sunscreen sprays, the FDA cautions. The agency said Wednesday that people should never apply sunscreen sprays near an open flame like a BBQ grill or candle, and not approach a flame until the product has had time to dry completely.
Fear of immolation won't get you off the hook when it comes to sun protection, though. The FDA still wants people using sunscreens or covering up to reduce the risk of skin cancer. Lotion-type sunscreens don't post a fire risk. Nor does wearing a hat and long sleeves.
To make choosing sunscreen less of a chore, last year the agency issued new regulations aimed at making the SPF ratings on sunscreens simpler and easier to understand.
Sunscreens need to be rated at SPF 15 or higher and labeled "broad spectrum" to claim that they protect against both sunburn and skin cancer.
The FDA also proposed that SPFs go no higher than SPF 50, because the agency thinks there's no evidence that SPFs higher than that grant more protection. But that rule has not been made final.

Xalles Holdings: nurturing tech startups towards lucrative exits
–News Direct–
Xalles Holdings (OTC:XALL) chairman Thomas Nash takes Proactive's Stephen Gunnion through the company's strategy of acquiring technology companies with strong assets and management teams, as well as the potential for significant growth.
Nash explained that Xalles targets early-stage companies, guiding them through a business lifecycle that spans from incubation to acceleration and growth, with the ultimate aim of achieving a profitable exit. Nash emphasized the importance of the management team and key personnel in these acquisitions, stating that companies remain wholly owned subsidiaries, retaining their original management to ensure motivation and alignment with Xalles Holdings' goals.
Xalles Holdings does not adopt a hands-on approach in the daily operations of its acquisitions but provides support in areas like financial backing, marketing, PR, and leveraging business development networks, Nash said. This support is aimed at helping subsidiaries refine their business plans and navigate towards financial milestones effectively.
The company's acquisition strategy does not have a fixed timeframe, offering flexibility to adapt to each company's unique needs and market conditions. This strategy includes various phases, from early-stage incubation with Exotic Studio to acceleration with Exogamous Advisors and eventually to a formal acquisition under the RISE model, which stands for Roll In Selected Exit.
Pending acquisitions include 100% of Fluid Tech and a stake in WooSender, demonstrating Xalles Holdings' diverse portfolio.
The company also reported a 234% growth in revenue year-over-year for the third quarter of 2023, marking its ninth consecutive quarter of revenue growth, attributed to strategic acquisitions and effective support for these companies.

Product Description - Energy International EIP Positive Energy Swimming Pool Ionizer
The pool ionizer is a rugged unit that is placed in the deep end of the swimming pool. Its purpose is to ionize the pool water which can in turn cut the cost of swimming pool chemicals by approximately 50%, eliminate the adverse effects of chemicals upon the skin, eyes, sinus, and removes significant chlorine odor. Pool water becomes crystal clear in a few days and a cleaning action takes place on the pool surface by releasing mineral deposits. This leads to less swimming pool maintenance. Your swimming pool care will be handled more by the pool ionizer. The unit weighs approximately 30lbs., is round in shape, made out of rugged plastic material and is 16" in diameter and 5" high. No electrical connections or chemicals are required to generate the unit. The Swimming Pool Ionizer will easily ionize a 50,000 gallon pool. So what are you waiting for? Begin your summer with clean, clear water for your swimming season. This product is guaranteed for five years.

About Energy InternationalEIP's Background "The HUNZA people have lived for centuries in a very remote area high up in the Himalayan Mountains cut off completely from the modern world. No electrical power or modern machinery is available. The Hunza people number several hundred thousand and have survived for over 500 years. Many people live to the age of 150 years, and it is not uncommon for some to live to 200 years of age. These amazing people are vegetarians except for fish. Each person farms their own land, which is donated by the government at the time of birth. Their life is difficult because the conditions they live under are harsh. The altitude is high, the temperature is cold and they are not allowed to hire servants or help in tilling their land which is fertile and free from sprays and chemicals. The water used for irrigation on their agriculture crops flows down from the mountains and is crystal clear. The water they drink is cloudy, living, energized water that has been altered by nature and now contains all of the minerals required for good health and long life." Ralph Bergstresser. Healing Powers of the Ganges River "For thousands of years the native population of India has used the water from the Ganges River for healing. Gallon jugs of this water from the Ganges have been stored for over half a century at the University of Calcutta, and are still completely free of bacteria. "What causes the Ganges River Water in India to have such fantastic healing powers?" Although this has been one of the great mysteries of nature, the secret of this miracle water is now known. "A tributary of water, that eventually finds its way into the Ganges River, originates and begins its long journey from high in the Himalayan Mountains. It is there, high in the mountains where the atmosphere is clear and clean, that nature begins the natural process of creating special water. This process starts when the mountain and its snow cover is bombarded by the higher energies of the Universe: known as cosmic energy. This bombardment by cosmic 4th-dimensional energy alters the atomic and molecular structure of the rocks and granite that constitute these magnificent mountains, and in turn, changes the chemistry of the snow and water as it flows over them and down to the lowlands. This chemistry change is adding the Life Force Energy to the water. It is the Life Force Energy, which has now become an intricate part of the water, that produces the healing miracles of the Ganges River." Ralph Bergstresser. The Key is Known "The key to this phenomenon is now known and is utilized to produce the products of Energy International Products. "How do these units work. The atomic structure ... of our products has been altered. This process (proprietary) brings these products into resonance or harmony with the basic energy (free energy) of the universe. These devices are like transceivers (receivers and transmitters). They create a field of life force energy around themselves that will penetrate any material substance ... by osmosis. The size of the mass of the altered material will vary with each product and application... "The most important energy in our life ... is our own vital energy. The atomic structure of our products has been altered so that they are in harmony, in tune, or in resonance with the life force vibration. The products create a field of energy around themselves and by 'osmosis', this energy will penetrate any living thing including an individual, plant, or animal. With radionic equipment, the life force energy may be measured on an individual. For example, on a scale of say from 0 to 100, the energy reading of a person might be twenty to twenty-five. When the person is handed an energy plate, the reading will instantly increase up to ninety or ninety-five on the scale. This is an indirect method of proving the product. The frequency of this 'life force energy' can not be measured directly by any known device. "Many years of research and study were required to bring about these products. A curious mind is required for scientific progress outside of the conventional realms. This all started in India over forty years ago when I was a guest of a maharaja. He had an eight-month-old son that was very sick. I asked if he was going to get a doctor. He said 'no, we have sent a man to obtain some holy water from the Ganges River.' In three days, the man came with one gallon of water. They fed the water to the sick child ... and like magic, the child was healed and back to normal. To me, a miracle is the inability to understand a scientific fact. How could the water cure the child? That was the problem. It was this incident that triggered my curious mind to find the answer and this led me into the present knowledge. My conclusions after many years of research. God is Energy. God is Love, Positive Energy is Love. The 'Life Force Energy' is God." Ralph Bergstresser. Footnote Ralph's experience with the maharaja's son led him to: "... a conversation with the famous scientist, Dr. Nikola Tesla, in 1942. Tesla said, 'If you want to find the secrets of the Universe, think in terms of energy, frequency, and vibration.' I spent the last 50 years doing just that, and my products are a direct result of this investigation." Ralph Bergstresser. |
