Son of Tesla
by Tray Caladan, aka Doug Yurchey
This article exposes what may be a very large secret within the family of Nikola Tesla. Tesla was never known to have had a child, marry or have had relations. He was too obsessed with his work, so the story goes. Nikola was the classic loner.
The following is evidence that this International and possibly interplanetary Man of Mystery DID father a child. The child grew up, always honoring his father's name, and toward the end of his life; became pen pals with this writer.
[ad name="Google Adsense 468×60 Banner Blue"]
Arthur Matthews was the last man to have worked hand-to-hand with Nikola Tesla. The master Jedi is said to have given the young apprentice all of his secrets. Matthews was not in the public eye. He lived in a rural area of Lake Beauport, Quebec, Canada. Over the years, curiosity-seekers to government agents have made the trek to Canada to tap Mr. Matthews for information. They would ask, 'how do you build the Magnifying Transmitter?' Arthur would always say that the 'answers are in Tesla's patents, lectures and articles.'
In the early 1940s, Mr. Matthews co-authored a book WITH TESLA called 'The Wall of Light' and was copyrighted in 1971. It is the only known writings of Tesla that was not of a technical nature. The first part was written by Tesla and the second part by Arthur. Tesla writes about boyhood experiences, his feelings, his research and strange life among humans.
Matthews completes 'The Wall of Light' (a reference to an impenetrable force field device) with his amazing story that includes visits by extraterrestrials to his property in Canada.
Arthur Matthews wrote, '…Tesla had strange ideas. He always thought he came from the planet Venus. He said as much to me, and the crew of a Venus spaceship said in one of their first messages, that a male child was 'born' onboard their ship during its trip from Venus to Earth in July, 1856…' He arrived in Smiljan, near Gospic in Lika Croatia. (This is why he claimed that he was not born).
In 'The Wall of Light,' Matthews reported that Venusians landed on his property in Canada and told him Tesla was one of them; from Venus. According to Arthur, Tesla was born on a spaceship at midnight between July 9th and 10th of 1856. The infant was entrusted to a good couple of 'Earth-parents' who were not his real parents. Nikola was much later called the 'Superman of the Industrial Age.' Tesla's early life may have been the inspiration for the old Superman story. He certainly was behind the 'mad scientist' idea from the first part of the 20th Century.
Tesla communicated with Venusians with his 'Tesla Scope' which he built in 1898. Then, with Matthews, he rebuilt it in 1938. They made it smaller and more streamlined. The 'Scope' would emit a loud buzzing sound when the Venusians made contact. (There are drawings of it in the book).
Another book on the extraterrestrial origin of Nikola Tesla is 'The Return of the Dove' by Margaret Storm. In a chapter entitled 'The Arthur Matthews Story,' she wrote:
'Then, to Arthur Matthews, he (Tesla) gave a design for an interplanetary communications set. He left to Matthews the task of getting the public interested in communicating with the inhabitants of other planets.'
From an interview with Margaret Storm from 1959: 'There again was a strange… relationship because when…Mr. Tesla first, at the request of Lord Kelvin…went to England…to consult with Lord Kelvin about what they called a wireless at that time, radio. There he met a Mr. Matthews…father and son. Now, Arthur H. Matthews is now I guess a man in his seventies in Canada. Was at that time…just a boy…and his father was an electrical engineer…working with Lord Kelvin. Tesla…took such an interest in this boy…that he taught Arthur everything that he knows…about electrical engineering. Now Arthur Matthews…today…is a professional electrical engineer. But, he has had…no training…'
'Wireless energy travels through the earth and not through the air as is the general belief,' A.H. Matthews, local engineer, told the Chronicle Telegraph in commenting on an article which appeared some time ago in this paper concerning the noted inventor, Nikola Tesla. 'It is surprising in these enlightened times to see people who should know better still hanging onto the Hertz-wave theory of wireless,' said Mr. Matthews…
Mr. Matthews has been experimenting for the past 30 years with the Tesla wireless theory and has failed to find any flaws in it. In 1906, he built a machine from Tesla's 1893 patent and was successful in transporting power from the cellar of his home on St. Joavhim Street to the Cove Fields. He was able to transmit sufficient power to light lamps on the Cove Fields and used only the earth and no aerials. Later he was able to transmit power to the Laval Hills.
'The mere fact of erecting an aerial,' Mr. Matthews explained, 'does not prove that energy comes through the air. The energy is already in the earth, waiting for something to move it,' he continued and went on to state: 'Electricity – high or low frequency, is always present…the earth being a vastly superior conductor…' — Chronicle Telegraph
The following quote by Arthur Matthews from a Canadian newspaper was written many decades before PCs, the Internet and Silicon Valley:
'TV, real live pictures can be sent over the phone…Every radio station in Canada can start sending pictures with and on their voice waves right now…Fellow tax-payers go out and buy a TV set and then build yourself a picture-sender – hook it up to the telephone wire and send pictures to your friends.'
– – –
This writer is extremely honored to have been pen pals with Arthur for a few years until his death in 1986. His book, printed by Health Research, contained his address and I wrote to him. I was shocked for the man to have written back in the form of scribbled lines on index cards. We spoke on the phone once. There were even plans for me to visit him in Canada, but that never occurred. Arthur had a different perspective on Tesla than more than 95% of all other publications concerning the super-genius.
The general books and articles published on Nikola Tesla leave out his alien heritage and most of the extraordinary accomplishments by the man…who was not one of us. Matthews explained that the books, even in praise and high tribute, were written from other books and do not contain the whole story. Matthews was closely associated with Tesla all of his life.
Here are two of Arthur's letters on index cards that I cherish dearly. He speaks Tesla-blasphemy according to common knowledge. Yet, Arthur knew him and is writing the plain truth…
July 5, 1980,
Dear Mr. Yurchey,
'Thank you for your very welcome letter and interesting information. Thank you for kind remarks about Tesla. A lot of persons have wrote about him, but have used information of others. If you intend to do a true book about Tesla – the only place to obtain true information is from the patents – lectures, articles and his own life story – and the only place to find his life story is in 'The Wall of Light.' Tesla was never a dreamer…he was a real man. He believed in God – and the Bible. He married in 1890 – he had a son. And he died a very rich man.'
Arthur Matthews
March 2, 1983
Dear Doug,
'The chapter from your book came this afternoon. I have spent some time reading them and I find them good reading. Very good in fact. But before you send it to be published…be sure of your facts. Study the remarks of Tesla in his own life story before you publish the remarks on Mr. Morgan – for he and Tesla were always friends. Morgan did not remove his support and faith in Tesla. They were firm friends. Tesla had loads of money. He was never poor. He died a rich man.
It was Tesla who removed the tower on Long Island, not the U.S. government. He was not told to remove the tower. Tesla removed it at his own loss. Because it was thought it would be used against the U.S. by the Germans. (WWI) By all means do not get information from books. Get true facts from Tesla lectures, articles, patents and his own life story in 'The Wall of Light' – This is the only true story.
Yours truly,
PS: Tesla was a wise man. No one cheated him. Some did try. He got a million cash from Westinghouse in 1893 – it was invested. So think it over. Also, Tesla sold all of his patents. He died happy, and rich. Don't believe writers of old books.'
Let's examine the notes. There are 'Tesla experts' who have not heard such untraditional views on Tesla. They would be outraged. Arthur made the point that most books were written from earlier Tesla books, which misunderstood. He wrote that Tesla 'married in 1890, he had a son…and he died a very rich man.' Here is the bombshell since most accounts portray his later life in poverty; feeding pigeons on the streets of New York. They say, 'he was responsible for so much he did not get credit for, yet Tesla died penniless.' It makes a good story as we saw at the end of the 1980 Belgium film 'The Secret of Nikola Tesla,' which starred Orson Welles as J.P. Morgan. But, it is not true.
After receiving the 1980 letter, I immediately wrote back and asked Arthur, 'are you Tesla's son?' He did not answer me. He completely went around the question…so I dropped it. I felt like I was asking Clark Kent if he was Superman? Did he promise Tesla to never reveal the truth? If Arthur was Tesla's son, why the secrecy? Why a secret son, set up in a rural area of Canada?
IF it was common knowledge that inventor of the Particle Beam weapon or 'Death Ray' had a son, do the words 'Lindbergh's baby' mean anything to you? The boy could have been ransomed for a country's worth of Death Ray weapons or other such extraordinary methods of destruction. The smart thing would be to live a secret life while always protecting his son's identity. According to Arthur, even Tesla's marriage was a covert affair.
J.P. Morgan and Tesla were always friends. Morgan did not remove his funding for the 187-foot NY Wardenclyffe Power Station because of Free Energy that was unprofitable. Tesla was very rich; the Magnetic Transmitter did not depend on Morgan. Tesla changed the purpose of Wardenclyffe from a World radio-broadcast tower to a World Electrical-Power Tower.
Tesla, himself, dismantled his life's work and ultimate achievement of giving the planet Free Power and all the energy it could ever use! He realized, but was probably SHOWN (through Time), what would occur with the coming of WW1. German scientists could intensify the electro-magnetic pulse of the Transmitter and SPLIT THE EARTH IN TWO! (like a glass shatters at a certain pitch). A device to power global cities could be turned into a Doomsday Weapon! It was ultimate power at the wrong time. People have to be done with War and militaries, completely; before such wonderful technologies can exist.
Well over a hundred years later, we still cannot be on the road to utopia as long as military-governments and secret operations remain in control of our planet.
Both pictures are from 'The Wall of Light.' The painting of Matthews is so similar to the photograph of Tesla; the pose; the clothes; the face and widow's peak. Was Arthur giving us a clue that he was Tesla's son in his book?
The article you are reading is a new version of a very old article. With some Internet access these days, you can discover others that tell the story of Matthews as Tesla's son. For me, it was a revelation back in the early 1980s completely due to his personal letters. It is pleasing to have confirmation from others. Now, more people know about Arthur Matthews.
This writer got the rare privilege of speaking to Mr. Matthews on the phone once. I asked him, 'when will we have Tesla Technology?' (I had little knowledge then that these guys like Tesla and his kid actually have seen the real future). Sadly, he told me that 'it will be so far in the future that no one then would even remember or know who Tesla was.'
'I would like to emphasize that I consider myself of little importance in this story. If my name is known at all, it is due to my long friendship with Nikola Tesla and an intimate knowledge of his great work for mankind.' — Arthur Matthews
The revelations of Arthur Matthews are extraordinary. Yet, this writer believes in the man with inside information on Tesla; who co-wrote a book with Tesla; who was taught by Tesla. I also believe in the ET or Venusian aspect to Tesla because he was a brilliant source that technologically changed the course of human history!
Obviously, Tesla cared for Arthur Matthews very much. I am honored to have corresponded with his son and to share his unconventional views on Nikola Tesla.
From Matthews, I learned do not believe something because it is repeated in books. From Tesla…I learned that the one individual responsible for creating our modern, industrial age was an extraterrestrial.
A final note…David Bowie played Nikola Tesla in the film 'The Prestige.' Bowie played an alien in the film, 'The Man Who Fell to Earth.' The old reference has been applied to only one super-genius and his love for humanity; a great gift that fell from the sky; Nikola Tesla.

PS Son of Tesla?
He tracked down one relative of his and LOOK at the 2 attached photos! (He probably got from the relative).
I only viewed these pix now and then wrote back and thanked him for them.

iRobots.txt SEO (IRSEO) is a fully customizable robots.txt virtual file generator. IRSEO creates a highly optimized and secure robots.txt file straight out of the box. Users may choose to enable or disable specific user agents, directories or files using intuitive options all of which include detailed instructions.
The robots.txt file is a text file located in the root directory of a website. It's purpose is to direct user-agents (AKA bots) away from or towards specific files or directories. Inhibiting a bot from indexing specific pages will ensure your website remains keyword optimized and all indexed pages are relevant to your potential customers.
IRSEO also inhibits several WordPress system directories and files by default. Doing this ensures that the search bots do not include security sensitive pages within search results. For example, searching for "inurl:wp-content name size description" in Google will produce a list of sites with indexed and open content directories.
Note that IRSEO creates a virtual robots.txt file. This robots.txt file is displayed whenever access to the robots.txt file is requested.
- Download the plugin from
. - Extract and upload the plugin to your
directory and activate it. - Edit the plugin settings using the admin page located under
- Does iRobots.txt SEO create or modify any files?
No. The robots.txt file serverd by IRSEO is virtual only. Your site will remain unmodified once the plugin is removed.
- Where can I learn more about robots.txt?
The official robots.txt information site is http://www.robotstxt.org/. The Google robots.txt extensions are documented here.
- Why does the robots.txt file not display?
If you type http://blog-name/robots.txt into a browser and are not presented with the IRSEO virtual robots.txt file, there may be several causes:
- Another plugin is creating its own robots.txt file. In this case, it is first in best dressed. Ensure that "Add sitemap URL to the virtual robots.txt file" option is not selected in XML Sitemap Generator.
- You have a physical robots.txt file. In this case the physical file is displayed instead of the virtual file.
- Your theme is not virtual file friendly. This is unfortunately the case for the excellent Arclite theme.
- Can I edit the robots.txt file?
Yes. In the "View Robots.txt" admin setting panel, select the "Enable free form editing" option. You will now be able to directly modify the robots.txt file from within this pane.

Enter the American psyche.
A 60 Minutes/Vanity Fair poll sheds light on how Americans think and feel about eleven topics that range from Osama bin Laden to James Bond. Turns out, 24% of Americans polled have doubts that the al-Qaeda leader is actually dead, while 31% (the highest) chose the fictitious Brit as their adventure-seeking partner in crime.
Speaking of Brits, 52% of Americans have no idea who Pippa Middleton is, despite the "media obsession" over Prince William's sister-in-law and her mesmerizing backside. Though 32% thought the Duchess of Cambridge's younger sister was a "British socialite," others answered that she was a children's book heroine, fashion designer or actress for adult films.
(PHOTOS: Sister Style: Pippa Middleton's Most Fashionable Moments)
More than 60% of Americans believe that the United States should still take in the world's "huddled masses yearning to breathe free," (yes, we're actually pro-immigration), but when it comes to the world in general, 27% believe it was safer ten years ago (before 9/11). For the most part, Americans agree that the U.S. government should be able to authorize cyber warfare when necessary (56%) and that pro athletes should avoid doping, even if the drugs are FDA-approved (72%).
Only 2% of respondents associated presidential hopeful Mitt Romney with Mormonism, with higher percentages of respondents linking the religion with Utah, Joseph Smith or polygamy.
When it comes to television, the majority wants to see fewer shows on crime, singing competitions or New Jersey, but 24% cited: "I like them all."
The poll was conducted among a random sample of 1,045 adults nationwide, who were interviewed over the phone in June. Click here to answer the questions yourself.

In August 2011, California adopted a statute making it a crime for jurors to use social media and the Internet to do research or disseminate information about cases. Now, two years after the law went into effect, the state's Judicial Council has recommended that the statute be repealed.
The Judicial Council adopted the recommendation (item E on the Consent Agenda) during its Dec. 13, 2013 meeting (audio), and will advocate for the repeal during the 2014 legislative session.
The statute, 2011 Cal. Laws chap. 181 (effective Jan. 1, 2012, codified at Cal. Penal Code section 166(a)(6)), expanded the state's jury instructions admonishing jurors not to use the Internet, and provided that "willful disobedience by a juror of a court admonishment related to the prohibition on any form of communication or research about the case, including all forms of electronic or wireless communication or research" could be punished as civil or misdemeanor criminal contempt of court.
Assembly Member Felipe Fuentes, who sponsored the legislation, explained at the time that although prior law "arguably prohibits the use of electronic/wireless communication devices to improperly communicate, disseminate information or research, the fact that this kind of communication is not expressly included in current law has resulted in increased problems in courts across the county." The Judicial Council endorsed the proposal.
But now the Judicial Council reports that the possibility of criminal sanctions actually impeded courts' inquiries into improper online activity by jurors.
[B]y making electronic communication about the trial a crime, subdivision (a)(6) inadvertently impairs the ability of the court to determine if misconduct occurred. Because a prosecutor may charge the juror with a misdemeanor, questions posed by the court may implicate the juror's constitutional rights against compelled testimony and self- incrimination. The implication of the juror's constitutional rights could thwart the court's ability to conduct an informal inquiry into the juror's alleged use of electronic communications during the trial.
The Council recommends that the civil contempt sanction adopted by the law remain, since judges have the inherent authority to waive civil contempt. Thus individual judges can offer jurors immunity when doing so would further an investigation of juror misconduct and determine whether a mistrial took place.
"Courts need to have the ability to inquire into juror activities that may bear on the outcome of the trial without implicating the juror's constitutional rights associated with the possibility of criminal contempt of court sanctions," the Judicial Council report concludes.
If Cal. Penal Code section 166(a)(6) is repealed, California judges -- like their brethren elsewhere -- would still be able to seek criminal and civil contempt against jurors who violate instructions not to use the Internet during trials. But they would not be required to do so.
Meanwhile, the danger of mistrials due to jurors' use of the Internet and social media remains a growing problem, with no good solution.

Advanced Search
This form allows you to perform an advanced search. You only need to fill in one field below. This can be any field. If you select "not" as your match criteria, you must select one other field.Advanced Search returning JSON, XML, and more
Explanation of Terms, Operators, Queries, and Grouping
Here, you will find an explanation on how the syntax to the search engine works.Our site uses a query syntax like the lucene query syntax from the Apache Lucene opensource search engine. A briefer explanation of the syntax follows.
The search engine supports two types of terms, single terms and phrases.
A single term is a single word such as "test" or "hello".
A phrase is a group of words such as "duck and cover".
Field Specific queries:
If you want to restrict your search to a specific part of the metadata, you can append in front the term a Field Shortcut, such as:
will look for "Duck and Cover" only in the title of the items. For more information on Field Shortcuts, see section about Field Shortcuts Expansion
NOTE: searching in only a restricted set is better than using the default set for two reasons:
- its much faster
- the results are much more relevant
Boolean Operators:
By default, the operator is AND, which means that the query:
is exactly similar to test AND hello, which means that documents containing the term "test" AND the term "hello" will be returned.
The query:
will return documents either containing the term "test" OR the term "hello". The query:
will return documents that contain the term "test" but not the term "hello" NOTE: using the NOT operator, be sure to supply at least one term without the NOT, or search will fail (the query NOT test is not valid).
Range Queries:
range queries allow you to search for documents whose field match values in between two bounds, for example:
will return items whose download count is between 1000 and 2000. using [] will include the bounds in the search, and () will exclude the bounds from the search If you dont want to specify a bound, you can use the special keyword "null":
will search for items with more that 10000 downloads.
The search engine supports using parentheses to group clauses to form subqueries, for example:
you can also use this feature within a field:
Fuzzy Queries:
If you are not sure how to spell a word you can ask the search engine to try to figure it out for you. To do this, append a ~ after the term to apply it on, for example:
will find the words buttonwood, as well as cottonwood and buttonware. NOTE: this query involves a lot of computing, so use it wisely and expect to wait a little for results to come in!

You are more that this white head that I hold tightly as a cluster of fruit, every day, between my hands. You are like nobody since I love you. Let me spread you out among the yellow garlands. Who writes your name in letters of smoke among the stars of the south? Oh let me remember you as you were before you existed. Suddenly the wind howls and bangs my shut window. The sky is a net crammed with shadowy fish. Here all the winds will let go sooner or later, all of them. The rain takes off her clothes. The birds go by, fleeing. The wind. The wind. I can contend only against the power of men. The storm whirls dark leaves and turns loose all the boats that were moored last night to the sky. You are here. Oh you do not run away. You will answer me to the last cry. Cling to me as though you were frightened. Even so, at one time a strange shadow ran through your eyes. Now, now too, little one, you bring me honeysuckle, and even your breasts smell of it. While the sad wind goes slaughtering butterflies I love you, and my happiness bites the plum of your mouth. How you must have suffered against getting accustomed to me, my savage, solitary soul, my name that sends them all running. So many times have we seen the morning star burn, kissing our eyes, and over our heads the grey light unwind in turning fans. My words rained over you, stroking you. A long time I have loved the sunned mother-of-pearl of your body. I go so far as to think you own the universe. I will bring you happy flowers from the mountains, bluebells, dark hazels, and rustic baskets of kisses. I want to do with you what spring does with the cherry trees. |

OMB announces final guidance on inherently governmental functions
Letter aims at `better balance' between contracting out and building in-house capabilities, CPO Jeffrey Zients says.
Long-anticipated final guidance on "inherently governmental functions" is set for publication on Monday and should clarify confusion over blurred lines in agencies' understanding of which types of work should be outsourced, top officials at the Office of Management and Budget told reporters on Friday.
The final policy, said Chief Performance Officer Jeffrey Zients, "helps agencies do better at balancing contracting out with management by federal employees. The mix was out of balance and we think this protects the public interest. Given our fiscal situation today, it is important more than ever that taxpayer money be well spent."
With a few exceptions, the guidance, which takes effect Oct. 12, is similar to the draft released in March 2010, said Dan Gordon, administrator of the Office of Federal Procurement Policy. "But it is a milestone" that follows up on a memorandum of understanding about reducing waste in contracting issued by President Obama in March 2009.
The document includes lengthy lists of functions that are clearly inherently governmental and separate lists of "functions closely associated with the performance of inherently governmental functions" -- where agencies can use more discretion.
One difference in the new guidance is a provision intended to "clarify the confusing and controversial" policy on the contracting out of military security operations, Gordon said. If a function is part of combat or could evolve into combat, then contractors can't be used. "We benefited on this issue from public comments from the private sector, agencies, nonprofits and the Hill," he added.
A second departure is a provision intended to help small businesses. "It places a lower priority on in-sourcing if the function is not inherently governmental," Gordon said. "Insourcing is not a goal, but agencies need to understand that if an inherently governmental function is improperly contracted," they can lose control of the work.
The administration "is sensitive" to realities of the current budget crunch, Gordon acknowledged. "We need to demonstrate fiscal responsibility on both sides" of the contracting process, he said. "We don't want to dramatically increase [full-time equivalent] levels on the federal side, but in today's fiscal world, the solution is not massive contracting out," nor is it massive insourcing.
Zients presented the letter in the context of the administration's two-and-a-half-year-old effort to trim waste by curbing contracting "after its uncontrolled growth under the prior administration." One in six federal dollars is contracted out, and the rate, mostly in services, doubled since 2008, he said. But 2010 marked the first time in a decade that the level of contracting decreased, by $80 billion.
Examples of smarter contracting, Zients said, include "strategic sourcing," such as pooling purchases of office supplies, which can save as much as 40 percent. "Rather than buying like 100 medium-sized businesses, take advantage of the fact that the United States is the world's largest purchaser," he said.
Another means is cutting spending on management support, which quadrupled over the past 10 years, he added. "In information technology and acquisition, management support produces many wasteful and unnecessary consultants' reports that sit on a shelf." That approach will reduce expenses by 15 percent, or $7 billion in fiscal 2012, he said.
Focusing on interaction with contractors, the administration also has "strengthened suspension and debarment" processes, Zients said, stressing, however, that "contractors do valuable work and will continue to do so."
Over the past year and a half, Gordon said, the outsourcing-insourcing issue has been reviewed most thoroughly by the Defense and Homeland Security departments, a process now largely complete. Most agencies have already been working under the principles of the final guidance, he said, so its release won't prompt major shifts.
Critical functions differ by agency, Gordon said, but the letter provides "clear direction to managers responsible for policy on the closely associated functions to make sure that the agency can control it and that the work doesn't expand."
The problem, he said, though "now largely corrected," has been that some agencies, for example, would have a contractor write a statement of work and then award the contract to that same company. In managing IT functions, he added, he's heard federal managers say that "no one in-house understands the work and that they're completely dependent on the contractor. It's intolerable." The solution, he said, might be limited insourcing, adding two to three people, or simply applying more attention.
The guidance's definition of inherently governmental, as in the draft, is based on the 1998 Federal Activities Inventory Reform Act, and Zients said the letter's other changes, though small, would require adjusting the Federal Acquisition Regulation to conform.
Dozens of interest groups had been following the evolution of final guidance on what is inherently governmental. "We are pleased OFPP has retained flexibilities for agencies to determine what functions are considered closely associated with inherently governmental functions or are critical functions to agency missions and to provide for these functions in a way that best meets their needs and capabilities," said Stan Soloway, president of the industry group the Professional Services Council. "However, we are concerned that the list of closely associated functions could be misconstrued as a 'do not contract' list, even though it is not the case, nor OFPP's intent. The checklist that identifies closely associated functions must not become a barrier to contracting for work where it is appropriate to do so."
Scott Amey, general counsel of the watchdog group the Project on Government Oversight, said he is impressed with the guidance. "The policy comes clean about the government's over-reliance on contractors and improves the categories of activities and functions that shouldn't be performed by contractors," he said. "Private security in combat areas was never a good policy, and OFPP's changes will ensure that properly trained and mission-responsible government personnel conduct such work." He wonders, however, whether agencies will actually retain or insource work that his group believes should be performed by public servants.
Steve Amitay, federal legislative counsel of the National Association of Security Companies, said on Friday that absence of any mention of "building security" in the guidance "validates the continued successful use of contract security by federal agencies. Furthermore, given the decades of effective and efficient use of contract security by federal agencies, any agency that is considering insourcing security jobs should, as the policy states, be required to conduct an in-depth, comprehensive cost-analysis of such a move."

Israel Killed JFK And Has Ruled America Ever Since
The United States has had three coups if you count the first one as being Jekyll Island in November of 1910. Those first coup plotters met at Jekyll Island and secretly wrote the law that became the Federal Reserve Act of 1913. All of the bankers who met in secret were Rothschild agents. This included Paul Warburg of the Rothschild dominated Kuhn Loeb bank. Nelson Aldrich who was a Senator married into the Rockefeller family. The Rockefellers were created by the Rothschilds as were J P Morgan, the Harrimans and the Bush family. Senator Aldrich was head of the National Monetary Commission created by President Theodore Roosevelt. Roosevelt had become President after the Jews had successfully assassinated President McKinley. They previously had assassinated President Lincoln. John Wilkes Booth was Jewish. But I prefer not to count these earlier assassinations as coups. The remaining members of the Jekyll Island Six were Treasury Department employees. who did what they were told to do.
The first day of those meetings actually occurred in a private railway car on the evening of November 22, 1910. When the Jews took over America's banking and monetary system in 1913, they took over the country. Not all coups involve tanks in the streets. It was no coincidence that President Kennedy was assassinated on November 22, 1963 which was the 53rd anniversary of Israel's earlier coup. President Kennedy had dared to attempt to take America back from the Jews.
All three of America's coups involved Israel. I have defined an Israeli as anyone of Jewish descent who is loyal to Israel. There was no state of Israel in 1910 but there was an ongoing criminal enterprise which could be called Judaism Incorporated. Any educated person whose thoughts have not been contaminated by the Jews should view Israel as the enemy of all mankind.
Today I want to focus on the assassination of JFK as we are now facing the 51st anniversary of our President's murder without being allowed to conduct a criminal investigation. Voltaire said you know who has power because you are not allowed to criticize them. We could rephrase that in today's world by saying we know who owns the government by determining who has not been arrested for stealing money by the billions.
The following is from a video made by Michael Collins Piper. He has connected all the dots in the Kennedy assassination and tied them to Israel.
Mordecai Vanunu was the original whistleblower. In 1986 he told the world that Israel had nuclear weapons and published photos of the secret Dimona works in the British press. He said Prime Minister Ben Gurion ordered the assassination of JFK because the President opposed Israel's acquisition of nuclear weapons. Ben Gurion resigned in protest over JFK's Israeli policies. Vanunu also wrote a letter in 1997 saying that there was even a link between the assassination of Kennedy and Israel's launching of the 1967 war.
Michael Collins Piper wrote Final Judgement: The Missing Link in the JFK Assassination. Michael Collins Piper in this book argued that the Israelis killed Kennedy. Vanunu endorsed Piper's book.
The Oliver Stone movie JFK was the kosher version of the assassination. Piper does not dispute that Clay Shaw had connections to the CIA. But the film neglects Shaw's connections to the heart of the Israeli nuclear program. He was also on the Board of Directors of Permindex, a Swiss assassination bureau. Permindex is an Israeli front and was not run by the CIA as Oliver Stone had said. A primary shareholder in Permindex was the Banque De Credit International of Geneva, founded by Tibor Rosenbaum, an arms procurer and financier for the Mossad. That bank was used by Meyer Lansky to launder hot money. Permindex was owned by CMC of Rome, which was founded by a Hungarian Jew named George Mandel who had deep connections with Israel and the Mossad. Mandel was the first man to start rumors about Auschwitz being a death camp. The Chairman of the Board at Permindex was Louis Bloomfield, a Canadian Jew and close associate of Edgar Bronfman. He also had long standing connections with the Rothschilds dating back before WWII.
The Stern family funded Clay Shaw's defense. They can be traced back to the Purple Gang of Detroit. The Stern family owned WDSU radio and TV stations in New Orleans. Prior to JFK's assassination they ran stories on Lee Harvey Oswald denouncing him as a member the Fair Play for Cuba Committee. They did not tell the people of New Orleans that this was an FBI front group. This gave Oswald the cover of being a Leftist while spying on American liberals. The Stern family was heavily invested in the NUMEC nuclear plant in Pennsylvania, which was the source of Israel's first nuclear bomb. NUMEC also dumped nuclear waste in Pennsylvania.
Piper said Clay Shaw might have had more to do with CIA-Mossad attempts to assassinate Charles De Gaulle than he did with the assassination of President Kennedy.
Ed Asner played Guy Bannister, the private detective, in the movie JFK. Bannister was a good friend of Kent and Phoebe Courtney. Bannister and the Courtneys were active in conservative politics. But the Courtneys did frustrate the work of people on the Right that the Anti-Defamation League did not like. Joe Pesci played David Ferrie in the movie JFK. He was a pilot and a friend of Lee Harvey Oswald. Bannister, Ferrie and Oswald spied on Leftists in New Orleans. Guy Bannister also was a friend of A. I. Botnick who was the head of the New Orleans ADL office. The Courtneys, Bannister, Ferrie and Lee Harvey Oswald were actively spying on Leftists in New Orleans for the ADL and Botnick.
The producer of JFK was the Israeli spy Arnon Milchan who sold nuclear triggers to Israel. AJ Weberman, an Israeli citizen, was the first to say that District Attorney Jim Garrison had an unpublished manuscript that charged Israel was behind the assassination of President Kennedy.
John King offered Jim Garrison a judgeship to stop his investigation of Clay Shaw. King was a business partner of Bernie Cornfeld whose Investors Overseas Service was a 2.5 billion dollar fraud. It was a subsidiary of Permindex and was linked to Tibor Rosenbaum and the Mossad.
The London Jewish Chronicle denounced President Kennedy's UN delegation position that displaced Palestinians had the right to return to the land that Israel had illegally taken from them during the 1948 war. The Jewish Chronicle published this in London on November 22, 1963.
Adlai Stevenson, a former Presidential candidate, was the American UN ambassador at the time. Stevenson's son was also a Senator and opposed Israel's excesses. He was critical of Israel sinking the USS Liberty in the 1967 war, which killed 34 American sailors.
Lyndon Johnson said he wanted the USS Liberty to sink to the bottom of the Mediterranean even while the Israelis were attacking the ship. LBJ was sleeping with a former Irgun terrorist, Mathilde Krim. Her husband was one of LBJ's many Jewish advisers.
A JFK researcher once wrote that Piper was on to something in his research linking Israel to the assassination of President. But he said that we had to proceed with caution. Because to be accused of anti-Semitism is about the same as being accused of being a child molester.
Robert Kennedy was the Attorney General in 1963. He gave the American Zionist Council, the predecessor to AIPAC (American Israel Public Affairs Committee), 72 hours to register as a foreign lobby. They formed AIPAC and waited for President Kennedy to be murdered so their legal problems would go away.
Frank Sturgis was an anti-Castro operative who was caught up in the Watergate burglary. He was an Israeli mercenary during the 1948 war. Cuban Intelligence believed Sturgis was in charge of communications for one of the JFK hit teams on November 22, 1963.
Meyer Lansky was key to the establishment of both Las Vegas and the state of Israel. The casinos launder the CIA's Black Ops money along side Jewish mob money. The real crime boss of Chicago was Meyer Lansky's partner Hyman Larner. Larner was closely connected with Israel and the Shah of Iran. Lucky Luciano wrote in his biography that his old friend and partner Meyer Lansky took over the mob from him. Sam (Santo) Trafficante of Tampa and Carlos Marcello of New Orleans were both lower level local bosses who were far out ranked by Lansky.
The Bronfman family bought Texas Pacific, an oil company. The Crown family of Chicago who had been part of organized crime bought General Dynamics. The late Sir Edgar Bronfman was given 240 million US dollars a year by organized crime for the right to export heroin from Canada into the US. He was allowed to write this down on his tax returns, which legitimatized his take from the heroin trade. This allowed him to at one time buy 20% of the combined assets of DuPont-Conoco. The Bronfman family has branched out into water privatization through Vivendi, which was exploitative of the poor in Third World countries.
Lee Harvey Oswald tested negative for gunshot residue. Piper believes Oswald was in front of the Texas Schoolbook Depository when JFK was killed. There is a photo, which could be of Oswald standing in front of the building. Judyth Vary Baker, a medical researcher, worked with Oswald at the Riley Coffee Company of New Orleans, which was a CIA front run by a retired FBI agent. She was a child prodigy who developed cancer cells in mice that Oswald took to Dr. Mary Sherman at LSU to be put in vaccines for Americans. Dr. Mary Sherman died under mysterious and to date unsolved circumstances. Ed Haslam wrote a book called Dr. Mary's Monkey about this neglected part of Oswald's life. Judyth Vary Baker also wrote about her affair with Oswald.
Jack Ruby was connected to two people who were involved in smuggling nuclear triggers to Israel. One was Lawrence Meyers. Piper had corresponded with James Earl Ray. Ray's brother published a book saying that the Bronfmans and Israel had nothing to do with the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. A US intelligent agent helped put the book together.
Piper does not mention that JFK was assassinated on the 53rd anniversary of the first day of the meetings to found the Federal Reserve Bank. That meeting on November 22, 1910 could be considered the first Jewish coup. America's second Jewish coup was of course the JFK assassination. And the third occurred on 9-11-2001 when Israel took down World Trade Center Towers 1, 2 and 7 with controlled demolitions.
There have been many books written that prove JFK was not killed by a lone assassin. But Michael Collins Piper the first to connect all the dots and trace them back to Israel.

Nullam convallis non felis et imperdiet. Praesent diam mi, scelerisque in auctor quis, dictum et ex. Donec metus justo, cursus quis ornare vitae, malesuada sed libero. Nullam egestas vel ipsum finibus.
I know now that it was not the best decision to stop practicing. Yet the pain demotivated me that much, that I had enough. I preferred to go to bed late. In the morning I preferred to dawdle and to pamper my dear E. Not moving is never an alternative. This I know now. Sooner or later comes the moment where one has to start again. It's easier to keep the ball rolling than to start from a passive position.
My home practises are exercises in the right direction. After the leg behind head poses I stop and do the closing sequence. I set a timer when I do headstand. Today I was not able to hold the pose 2 min.
Yesterday I had another session with the physio therapist. She is great. She recommends exercises for the abdomen. Strong abdomen protect the back. It makes no sense to integrate the exercises with my yoga practise. So there will be an afternoon session. I know that stroday I had zero pain tolerance. After 30 min on the mat I gave up. Last night I had slept very bad. I have the feeling I was longer awake than in deep relaxing sleep status. After 2am I got up and I was some time online. This morning I was tired. Sleep deprivation lowers the pain tolerance for sure.
That I gave up after 30 min doesn't convince me.This early afternoon I'll have another session at the physio therapist. Shall she press out the pain. It's the muscles that hurt. She knows no mercy. She does what is necessary. Nevertheless the 30 min count as a practise.

Love is the union of two people,
Who strive to attain many mutual goals.
Love is accepting ones good and the bad,
Of sharing the jolly times and also the bad.
Love is taking one another just as they are,
And making them feel like a bright shining star.
Love is knowing what the other one needs,
Showing you care with kind words and deeds.
Love is supporting the other without gain,
Of sharing the grace to forgive a wrong,
To heel a slight and not carry it long.
Love is the security and earned trust,
The feeling of safe and that is a must.
love is the gentle,warm, kind embrace,
Of two hearts wanting to share common space…

"The end was near." -Voices from the Zombie War
The Zombie War came unthinkably close to eradicating humanity. Max Brooks, driven by the urgency of preserving the acid-etched first-hand experiences of the survivors from those apocalyptic years, traveled across the United States of America and throughout the world, from decimated cities that once teemed with upwards of thirty million souls to the most remote and inhospitable areas of the planet. He recorded the testimony of men, women, and sometimes children who came face-to-face with the living, or at least the undead, hell of that dreadful time. World War Z is the result. Never before have we had access to a document that so powerfully conveys the depth of fear and horror, and also the ineradicable spirit of resistance, that gripped human society through the plague years.
Ranging from the now infamous village of New Dachang in the United Federation of China, where the epidemiological trail began with the twelve-year-old Patient Zero, to the unnamed northern forests where untold numbers sought a terrible and temporary refuge in the cold, to the United States of Southern Africa, where the Redeker Plan provided hope for humanity at an unspeakable price, to the west-of-the-Rockies redoubt where the North American tide finally started to turn, this invaluable chronicle reflects the full scope and duration of the Zombie War.
Most of all, the book captures with haunting immediacy the human dimension of this epochal event. Facing the often raw and vivid nature of these personal accounts requires a degree of courage on the part of the reader, but the effort is invaluable because, as Mr. Brooks says in his introduction, "By excluding the human factor, aren't we risking the kind of personal detachment from history that may, heaven forbid, lead us one day to repeat it? And in the end, isn't the human factor the only true difference between us and the enemy we now refer to as "˜the living dead'?"
Note: Some of the numerical and factual material contained in this edition was previously published under the auspices of the United Nations Postwar Commission.

In today's edition of Commissioner Candice McQueen's Educator Update, she talks about pending legislation addressing teacher evaluation and TNReady.
Here's what McQueen has to say about the issue:
As we continue to support students and educators in the transition to TNReady, the department has proposed legislation (HB 309) that lessens the impact of state test results on students' grades and teachers' evaluations this year.
In 2015, the Tennessee Teaching Evaluation Enhancement Act created a phase-in of TNReady in evaluation to acknowledge the state's move to a new assessment that is fully aligned to Tennessee state standards with new types of test questions. Under the current law, TNReady data would be weighted at 20 percent for the 2016-17 year.
However, in the spirit of the original bill, the department's new legislation resets the phase-in of growth scores from TNReady assessments as was originally proposed in the Tennessee Teaching Evaluation Enhancement Act. Additionally, moving forward, the most recent year's growth score will be used for a teacher's entire growth component if such use results in a higher evaluation score for the teacher.
We will update you as this bill moves through the legislative process, and if signed into law, we will share detailed guidance that includes the specific options available for educators this year. As we announced last year, if a teacher's 2015-16 individual growth data ever negatively impacts his or her overall evaluation, it will be excluded. Additionally, as noted above, teachers will be able to use 2016-17 growth data as 35 percent of their evaluation if it results in a higher overall level of effectiveness.
And here's a handy graphic that describes the change:
Of course, there's a problem with all of this: There's not going to be valid data to use for TVAAS. Not this year. It's bad enough that the state is transitioning from one type of test to another. That alone would call into question the validity of any comparison used to generate a value-added score. Now, there's a gap in the data. As you might recall, there wasn't a complete TNReady test last year. So, to generate a TVAAS score, the state will have to compare 2014-15 data from the old TCAP tests to 2016-17 data from what we hope is a sound administration of TNReady.
We really need at least three years of data from the new test to make anything approaching a valid comparison. Or, we should start over building a data-set with this year as the baseline. Better yet, we could go the way of Hawaii and Oklahoma and just scrap the use of value-added scores altogether.
Even in the best of scenarios — a smooth transition from TCAP to TNReady — data validity was going to be challenge.
As I noted when the issue of testing transition first came up:
Here's what Lockwood and McCaffrey (2007) had to say in the Journal of Educational Measurement:
We find that the variation in estimated effects resulting from the different mathematics achievement measures is large relative to variation resulting from choices about model specification, and that the variation within teachers across achievement measures is larger than the variation across teachers. These results suggest that conclusions about individual teachers' performance based on value-added models can be sensitive to the ways in which student achievement is measured.These findings align with similar findings by Martineau (2006) and Schmidt et al (2005)You get different results depending on the type of question you're measuring.
The researchers tested various VAM models (including the type used in TVAAS) and found that teacher effect estimates changed significantly based on both what was being measured AND how it was measured.
And they concluded:
Our results provide a clear example that caution is needed when interpreting estimated teacher effects because there is the potential for teacher performance to depend on the skills that are measured by the achievement tests.
If you measure different skills, you get different results. That decreases (or eliminates) the reliability of those results. TNReady is measuring different skills in a different format than TCAP. It's BOTH a different type of test AND a test on different standards. Any value-added comparison between the two tests is statistically suspect, at best. In the first year, such a comparison is invalid and unreliable.
So, we're transitioning from TCAP to TNReady AND we have a gap in years of data. That's especially problematic — but, not problematic enough to keep the Department of Education from plowing ahead (and patting themselves on the back) with a scheme that validates a result sure to be invalid.

Welcome to Peyote People, my name is Kevin and together with my wife Beatriz we run a small gallery in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico that works directly with the Huichol Indians that live in San Andres Cohamiata, Jalisco. Over the last 10years we have developed very close relationships with a number of Huichol families. Unlike most who buy their art in the city, we like to actually fly up into the Sierra to observe their ceremonies and rituals and take them supplies like the carvings that they use and new glass beads with irridescent colors that we import for our artists to work with. We believe that the artist is just as valuble as the art; every piece that we sell is marked with the artist name and has a stamp that states their tribal affiliation which adheres to the 1991 Indian Arts and Crafts Act.
Huichol art abounds today in places like ebay, as well as tourist towns like Puerto Vallarta. A simple google search will bring up more web sites than there are Huichol!! The true art however is very difficult to find. It does not come from Huichol that live in the city, but rather those who actually live in the sierra, those who are involved in doing the ceremonies and rituals that make up what it means to be Huichol.
Please feel free to write us if you have any questions regarding any of the pieces in our collection or the Huichol that we work with. Peyote People has been recognized by the Huichol Traditional Government of San Andres Cohamiata for its work in the community and started a Fair Trade co-operative that promotes cultural authenticity by working with Huichol that actually live in the Sierra and are actively involved in the presvation of their cultures traditions.
