China, Russia quit dollar

St. Petersburg, Russia - China and Russia have decided to renounce the US dollar and resort to using their own currencies for bilateral trade, Premier Wen Jiabao and his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin announced late on Tuesday.

Chinese experts said the move reflected closer relations between Beijing and Moscow and is not aimed at challenging the dollar, but to protect their domestic economies.

"About trade settlement, we have decided to use our own currencies," Putin said at a joint news conference with Wen in St. Petersburg.

The two countries were accustomed to using other currencies, especially the dollar, for bilateral trade. Since the financial crisis, however, high-ranking officials on both sides began to explore other possibilities.

The yuan has now started trading against the Russian rouble in the Chinese interbank market, while the renminbi will soon be allowed to trade against the rouble in Russia, Putin said.

"That has forged an important step in bilateral trade and it is a result of the consolidated financial systems of world countries," he said.

Putin made his remarks after a meeting with Wen. They also officiated at a signing ceremony for 12 documents, including energy cooperation.

The documents covered cooperation on aviation, railroad construction, customs, protecting intellectual property, culture and a joint communiqu. Details of the documents have yet to be released.

Putin said one of the pacts between the two countries is about the purchase of two nuclear reactors from Russia by China's Tianwan nuclear power plant, the most advanced nuclear power complex in China.

Putin has called for boosting sales of natural resources - Russia's main export - to China, but price has proven to be a sticking point.

Russian Deputy Prime Minister Igor Sechin, who holds sway over Russia's energy sector, said following a meeting with Chinese representatives that Moscow and Beijing are unlikely to agree on the price of Russian gas supplies to China before the middle of next year.

Russia is looking for China to pay prices similar to those Russian gas giant Gazprom charges its European customers, but Beijing wants a discount. The two sides were about $100 per 1,000 cubic meters apart, according to Chinese officials last week.

Wen's trip follows Russian President Dmitry Medvedev's three-day visit to China in September, during which he and President Hu Jintao launched a cross-border pipeline linking the world's biggest energy producer with the largest energy consumer.

Wen said at the press conference that the partnership between Beijing and Moscow has "reached an unprecedented level" and pledged the two countries will "never become each other's enemy".

Over the past year, "our strategic cooperative partnership endured strenuous tests and reached an unprecedented level," Wen said, adding the two nations are now more confident and determined to defend their mutual interests.

"China will firmly follow the path of peaceful development and support the renaissance of Russia as a great power," he said.

"The modernization of China will not affect other countries' interests, while a solid and strong Sino-Russian relationship is in line with the fundamental interests of both countries."

Wen said Beijing is willing to boost cooperation with Moscow in Northeast Asia, Central Asia and the Asia-Pacific region, as well as in major international organizations and on mechanisms in pursuit of a "fair and reasonable new order" in international politics and the economy.

Sun Zhuangzhi, a senior researcher in Central Asian studies at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, said the new mode of trade settlement between China and Russia follows a global trend after the financial crisis exposed the faults of a dollar-dominated world financial system.

Pang Zhongying, who specializes in international politics at Renmin University of China, said the proposal is not challenging the dollar, but aimed at avoiding the risks the dollar represents.

Wen arrived in the northern Russian city on Monday evening for a regular meeting between Chinese and Russian heads of government.

He left St. Petersburg for Moscow late on Tuesday and is set to meet with Russian President Dmitry Medvedev on Wednesday.

The Relentless Invasion of Our Minds

by Zen Gardner

I can’t pound away enough about this subject, and I hope you are sounding off too. People would find it hard to believe how many types of technologies are being used on human minds today.

We all know we’re “steered” and “walled off” to some degree by influences around us, not the least of which is the media and the onslaught of its corporofascist disinformation and advertising arm.

Deeper influences include so-called modern education and the socially engineered dumbing-down of society for decades. Just look around you for how “well repeated” everything we’re told has become, with the predominance of shallow Hollywood types and the gutless sing-song intonations and political correctness in society’s language.

But there’s a lot more people need to know about electronic mind control and what it’s doing to us and our world.


1. The Sounds of Silence

Here’s one–subliminal programming carried by UHF or Ultra High Frequency signals. Some say this is the reason the government so enthusiastically pushed everyone to digital broadcasting, to implement this, and free-up the analog bandwidth for even more insidious purposes…the coming universally implanted chip.

The Department of Defense calls it Silent Sound Spread Spectrum (SSSS), and it also goes by the name of S-quad or Squad. In the private sector, the technology goes by the name of Silent Subliminal Presentation System and the technology has also been released to certain corporate vendors who have attached catchy brand names like BrainSpeak Silent Subliminals to their own SSSS-based products.

Whatever you call it, SSSS is a technology that uses subliminal programming that is carried over Ultra-High Frequency (UHF) broadcast waves, planting inaudible messages directly into the subconscious human mind.

Perfected more than twenty years ago by the Department of Defense and battlefield-tested upon unwitting Iraqi soldiers serving in the army of Saddam Hussein in the Gulf War during 1991, SSSS is a sinister weapon that may have been been developed for a specific mission: the total subjugation of the American people.

We’re talking nasty here. Would these controllers do such a thing? Are you kidding? Any tool that works is a good tool for these tools. Nature will find a way around it, but it’s something to behold how desperate these control freaks are.

Whether SSSS is coupled with the new all-digital TV signal as its means of delivery into the minds of an unsuspecting U.S. populace or not, it can be deployed by many different devices, including HAARP and GWEN towers, which would effectively blanket the entire nation at once. In fact, Judy Wall says that “there is evidence that the US Government has plans to extend the range of this technology to envelop all peoples, all countries. This can be accomplished, is being accomplished, by utilising the nearly completed HAARP project for overseas areas and the GWEN network now in place in the US. The US Government denies all this.”

But the most insidious aspect of SSSS is that it is completely undetectable by those being targeted. Because it delivers its subliminal programming directly to the human brain via the auditory sense at frequencies that humans are incapable of perceiving as sound, there is no defense against it. Everyone on the planet is equally susceptible to mind control via SSSS and there isn’t any escape from it, as the UHF waves can be transmitted over very long distances from remotely located sources and will pass through walls and other objects as if they are not there. UHF is the frequency (100mhz) that has been used for television and radio broadcasting for as long as these media have existed. SSSS is designed to utilize UHF as a carrier wave.

Even more insidious, though, is the fact that, coupled with the use of supercomputers, an individual’s unique electroencephalographic (EEG) patterns can be digitally altered and then stored for rebroadcast via digital UHF. According to Judy Wall, editor and publisher of Resonance, the newsletter of the Bioelectromagnetics Special Interest Group, these computer-enhanced EEGs “can identify and isolate the brain’s low-amplitude ‘emotion signature clusters,’ synthesize them and store them on another computer. In other words, by studying the subtle characteristic brainwave patterns that occur when a subject experiences a particular emotion, scientists have been able to identify the concomitant brainwave pattern and can now duplicate it.” These modified emotion signature clusters can then be broadcast over UHF carrier frequencies (i.e., regular TV and radio signals) directly into the brain where they can then “silently trigger the same basic emotion in another human being.” In other words, if the emotional signature cluster for, say, a feeling of hopelessness and despair is being fed directly into your brain via unseen radio waves, you will feel those emotions. The implications of this are, quite literally, mind boggling. Source


2. Another Microwave Scream Inside the Skull

The U.S. military bankrolled early development of a non-lethal microwave weapon that creates sound inside your head. But in the end, the gadget may be just as likely to wind up in shopping malls as on battlefields, as I report in New Scientist.

The project is known as MEDUSA – a contrived acronym for Mob Excess Deterrent Using Silent Audio. And it should not be confused with the Long Range Acoustic Device and similar gadgets which simply project sound. This one uses the so-called “microwave auditory effect”: a beam of microwaves is turned into sound by the interaction with your head. Nobody else can hear it unless they are in the beam as well.

The effect has long been a laboratory curiosity, with no application. But, over the years, the military has been intrigued. The idea (dubbed “the telepathic ray gun”) was mentioned in a 1998 US Army study, which turned up in a recent Freedom of Information Act document dump. Five years later, the Navy decided to put some R&D dollars into the project. Now, as I note on the New Scientist website, Dr. Lev Sadovnik of the Sierra Nevada Corporation has provided more details.

There are health risks, he notes. But the biggest issue from the microwave weapon is not the radiation. It’s the risk of brain damage from the high-intensity shock-wave created by the microwave pulse. Clearly, much more research is needed on this effect at the sort of power levels that Dr. Sadovnik is proposing. But if it does prove hazardous, that does not mean an end to weapons research in this area: a device that delivered a lethal shock-wave inside the target’s skull might make an effective death ray.

Dr. Sadovnik also makes the intriguing suggestion that, instead of being used at high power to create an intolerable noise, it might be used at low power to produce a whisper that was too quiet to perceive consciously but might be able to subconsciously influence someone. The directional beam could be used for targeted messages, such as in-store promotions. Sadovnik even suggests subliminal advertising, beaming information that is not consciously heard (a notion also spotted on the US Army’s voice-to-skull page). While the effectiveness of subliminal persuasion is dubious, I can see there might be some organizations interested in this capability. And if that doesn’t work, you could always point the thing at birds. They seem to be highly sensitive to microwave audio, so it might be used to scare flocks away from wind farms — or shoo pigeons from city streets. Source



3. HAARP and GWEN Tower Manipulation

I watch the weather. Not from conventional sites, but from real reporters who can see what’s going on. Dutchsince reports regularly on what the towers are showing him, and has incredible accuracy in telling us what weather system type is tending to come where.


And what apparently is guiding these formations is HAARP type broadcast technology emanating out of military bases and government installations around the country. After all, they’ve openly stated they want to own the weather by 2025.

What, are we stupid?



GWEN Towers


“Free” WiFi in US. Free, at what cost?

4. EMFs Blasting Everywhere

We’re being killed in slow motion. A microwave oven has warnings all over it, and if you use an EMF detector you’ll find it gives off a strong blast even when off, especially around the sides. Cell phones are now well known to cause cancer and Russia has banned their use amongst youth.

Western world? Fry away. ‘We don’t care, we dare. Precautions are for pussies. Put that gun to your head ol’ boy, you’re a tough codger.’

Conclusion

Pretty serious stuff. There’s lots more to all this, I’m only touching on the surface to get people thinking and aware. I’m no expert on any of this by any means, just aware we’re being screwed for ulterior motives…as usual.

The fundamental point is, these towers you’re seeing going up around you are not only all for cell phones! Some of these are huge metal beams emanating incredibly destructive influences around them. Here’s one I took a picture of in Austin, Texas RIGHT AMONGST ALL THE KIDS in a frequented and densely housed area off Guadelupe St. by U of T.

Tragic.

According to expert Barry Trower, cell towers should not be within a mile and a half of humans – yet they’re deliberately placed on medical buildings, within densely populated housing areas, and on schools and recreation areas.

It’s a living tragedy in slow motion. And no one notices, because no one in responsible positions are responsible to the people, just money, power, position and corporate greed.

Be aware. Campaign against towers near you and your loved ones and expose them. Investigate orgonite and other technologies and disable towers all you can.

We will win, but not by sitting idly by.

Don’t just sit there and fry.

Love, Zen

This is How We Fix The World. By HopeGirl

Sending out the call

I have been asked to come up with tangible solutions to help transition our world from the systems we have in place now to the systems we will have in place in the Golden Age. As we are all connected, despite our perceived differences, it would be foolish for me to think that I can undertake such a colossal task on my own. THIS IS AN OFFICIAL CALL OUR FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE. Humanity needs your help. This is your window of opportunity to contribute to the co-creation of our collective future. Please act now! This call is very real, very serious and incredibly important. Think of it in this way: What if the leaders or your country actually came to you with the problems we were all facing, and asked you to come up with a solution that they would actually implement? This may be hard to imagine as it has been so long since our voices have been heard and taken seriously.

In an effort to organize this, I have put together pointed specific questions that need your input. I’ve also put together a form and list of instructions to help guide you through your own thinking process, and generate clarity in the information that you will submit. I have set a deadline for submission which is two weeks from now (on September 24th.) After this deadline all submissions will be compiled into a document that will be the blueprint of our future written by the people for the people.

Please know the information you submit will be taken very seriously. The most I can say now is that, through Divine intervention and your input, your response to these questions will be presented to entities in charge of implementing these changes. Your help is needed and your response to these questions has been asked for. In addition your input will be posted here on this blog for people to see.

Please be aware that these questions are going to be hard to answer. You may have to awaken parts of yourself to find the answers. This may not be easy, but the Universe and all of humankind depends on your answers. For this reason I would suggest that you read through the questions slowly, walk away, think about them for a while, perhaps even meditate and pray on them, and wait to see what comes to you for answers. Know that the answers are there inside of you. Ask your friends and family for their ideas, spread this document far and try to get as many people as you can to submit their answers.

First a little background

In my previous post “WHILE YOU WERE ASLEEP The Story of the 2012 Revolution” I attempted to layout the background of how we arrived at the point in our history that we are at right now. If you have not yet read it, I suggest you do to help give you your own understanding of our situation. I know that the document is long, but it had to be to get the full story. It is also important that you were able to get through and read to the very end where most of the future opportunities are presented. The reason for this is because we need to be able to get into “possibility thinking”. It is through this thinking that we will be able to come up with the answers for the future of our planet. We need to remember who we all really are, where we came from and where we are going.

The Assignment

As I’ve stated, there is a tremendous amount of money that is about to be released to all of us. As wonderful as this sounds it is a difficult process to undertake. This is the problem we all need to resolve. Let me try to explain:

To simplify, the release of this money is the equivalent of everyone winning the lottery at the same time (and yes there is enough for everyone to get the full amount). What kind of effect would that have on our society? Suddenly you’re a millionaire, but so are all the people you know. So yes, while everything will be “reset” there is a very real possibility that everything will be devalued at the same time. If everyone has money, everyone might quit their job, then there will be no one to provide the goods and services that we would all spend our newly found money on.
Here is an important analogy for what we are dealing with. Our current system (regardless of how corrupt it is) is like a life support machine for our society. It pumps our blood and supplies the nutrients necessary to keep our heart beating. We’ve been hooked up to this system for so long, our society depends on its daily operation for our ongoing survival. You can’t just pull the plug, wheel in a new life support machine and hook it up. The body wouldn’t survive that sudden transfer. We need to create a detailed means of transferring us off one system and onto another without loosing one precious soul in the transition.

On one side of the pond we’ve got the history of our past, and all the associated problems with our situation in the present. On the other side of the pond we’ve got the Golden Age and wondrous dreams of our glorious future. There are plenty of great people who have given us details and an understanding of our past and present. There are also plenty of people who give us details of our Golden Age. But who’s talking about the bridge between the two? How do we get there? This, ladies and gentlemen, is our mission. We the people are going to build the bridge so that all of us can step into our Golden Age, and we are going to start with the answers that we provide through this assignment.

Collectively, we’ll create the blueprint. Each of us plays a different role. Each of us is a cog in the great living machine of consciousness that will bring us to the other side. If you have been waiting and wondering: “when is something going to happen? why doesn’t something happen?”, it may be because we have to make it happen! Awaken those parts within yourself may be asleep and open your heart to the Divine answers that reside within. Step up to the plate and take an active role in the tremendous leap of our evolution. You have been summoned. The time is now.

The Questions (these will also be outlined in the form below)

Question #1 High level question – this addresses the “big picture”:
Our main objective is to release this money without destroying our society by crashing our global economic systems. How can we do this?

You do not have to be an economist to answer this question. Think about it based on your own understanding and knowledge. If you want, you can think of this on a global scale. You can also think of this on a small scale based on your own town or community.

For example, how would you keep your local supermarket running if the owner suddenly became a millionaire? Come up with your own scenarios based on your own personal experience. Act as if you were the person in charge of implementing this change and explain step by step what you would do to create the transition.

Question #2 Low Level Question – this addresses details:
Releasing this money and rebuilding our world is going to have to involve re-defining our relationships with our current organizations and industries. How do we do this? Pick one or more areas of our society that you feel passionate about (education, medical, military, technology, spirituality etc) Propose the end result relationship/function of this particular area that you wish to achieve and then reverse engineer the steps to bring us from where we are currently to the end result.

For example, if the end result is to live a life completely free of our dependence of oil, how would we smoothly transition our current energy system from where we are now to one that is completely run on clean free energy.

Question #3 Alternative Question:
If you have followed the work of someone that has these answers, please summarize this work here as it pertains to answering these questions and provide a reference to their work. This is also a place where you can list any further thoughts or comments that you have that may not fit into the first two questions.

Guidelines

Please try to adhere to the following guidelines while submitting your ideas.

1. This is not about competition or perfection. Please just do the best you can. Perhaps you don’t have all the answers; perhaps you can only contribute a small part. That’s ok. Do what you can and leave the rest. Your heart’s intention will be “good enough” to complete this assignment.

2. Standardization. To make this mass communication as efficient as possible I have created a standardized format that I would ask you to adhere to. This format is also designed to help guide all of us as a collective as we all partake in our own thought process. I have tried to make the form as intuitive as possible to help you complete it. Please think about your answers within the context of some of the following key points:

Goal/End Result: Please provide a summary in one or two sentences that can easily be listed with several other goals and end results on the same page. Please be concise and get right to the point with your Goal or end result. For example: “Goal: To end world hunger and provide sustainable food security through the use of local community co-ops where every member of the community volunteers their time in exchange for food to feed their families.”

Explain how we can accomplish this goal through the use of contingencies and milestones. (Below) This will help you lay out the step-by-step instructions that are necessary for these plans to be implemented.

Contingencies: Any process is laid out in a series of steps and you often have to complete the first step to move on to the second step and so on… Please define your idea’s contingent relationships here. For example, if we want to build a house, first we need to pour the foundation and wait for it to dry before we can build the frame on top of the foundation. After the frame is built we can then build the walls, etc.

Milestones: Please name specific points within your process that would be progress -marking achievements. For example, once we have finished building the house, we have now achieved a place to live!

3. Assume that the Cabal has been abolished and the financial collapse has been prevented. There are powers in place now that are helping to take care of these things. Our mission here is to design our world after this has been done. The beauty of this assignment is that by providing a detailed book of solutions now, we will also help play a part in the removal of the cabal and the prevention of the financial collapse, so it’s a win-win all around!

4. Apply the lessons we have learned. I know that this assignment may be overwhelming to some, but it is partially our complacency that has helped to get us into this mess. In the past, if we didn’t want to think about solutions, someone else did. And many of these solutions were based on greed and personal ego. Now is the time to break this pattern. Get up, stand up, do something, and speak out!

5. Check your ego. It has become natural to think in terms of “what’s in this for me?” Try to think of the collective. Remember the ultimate answer lies within the context of what you can do to help humanity, and not only what you can do to help yourself.

6. Think outside the box. You would be amazed at the types of answers you can come up with when you use “lateral thinking”. For example, challenge traditional ways of viewing things, make random assumptions about things to help break yourself out of the way we’ve all been programmed to think. (It’s not the spoon that bends; it’s your mind.)

7. Please — no hate, and no complaints without solutions.

I understand that we all have strong feelings about the oppression and suffering that we have had to endure. And I understand that you will probably have to identify a problem in order to provide an answer. Complaining and people-bashing alone keeps us stagnant and we need to move forward. I will not be able to include any submissions in the final document that are purely negative and void of solutions. If you are angry (as many of us are) please use that anger and focus it on coming up with an answer to get us out of this mess.

8. Brainstorm with your friends and family. Some of us are awake, some of us are not. Everyone has a brain and a heart. You can ask simple questions without having to reveal everything all at once. In many cases you might come across something that is very common. Some people will just shut down and say, “It can’t be done! It’s impossible! Never gonna happen!” They state it as if it were fact, back it up with little or no coherent thought or justification, and brush you off. This is “contempt prior to investigation”. It is a classic conditioned response and part of the programming of the Cabal. Hang in there as we are all being reprogrammed NOW as we speak. If you feel safe, try to ask some gentle probing questions to see if you can shift their thinking just a little. If this doesn’t work, then just shower them with love and drop a hint or two in your own way to let them know that everything will be ok, and when the time comes, you’ll be able to help them. The heart remembers what the mind forgets.

9. Share your story. If you have a story that you think would be beneficial for explaining your solution and reaching the hearts of others, please have the courage to share it! If you want, you can share anonymously or under a pen name. Too much has been hidden from us for too long. We need to know about your experience. We need to walk in each other’s shoes. We need to find compassion for one another. Your story plays an important role in awakening the hearts of others, and allows us to usher in the Golden Age.

10. You are significant. You are good enough and smart enough. You are more valued than you may ever know. It does not matter your age, your level of education, your culture, your income level or your occupation. You are part of humanity and you are needed at this time.

Next Steps for HopeGirl

I will be collecting submissions as they come in and organizing them into a larger document. As I am only one person, I certainly have my work cut out for me. I am dedicated to this cause as I am answering the directive given to me to do my due diligence. I know that I will receive help in every way I might need it.

Please feel free to post some of your ideas in a summarized version in the comments section below so that others can read and be inspired while this collection is in process. Please do this of course IN ADDITION to submitting the form, as only form submissions will be included in the finished document.

Remember the deadline for submissions is on September 24th at 12pm EST. You can start submitting your ideas as soon as today. After the deadline, the document will be finalized and submitted to the parties mentioned and will also be posted on this blog for all to read. I am assuming the finalized document should take a few days to complete after the submission deadline. At this point in time, we have to assume that this is the only opportunity we will get to pull this type of information together and submit it. I do not know if there will be another chance in the future, so if at all possible please act now if you want to contribute.

Please spread this document far and wide. We need as many submissions as possible and everyone needs to know about this opportunity to contribute their ideas.

Many blessings to all of you my beloved fellow humankind. I am very excited to hear what you come up with. Good luck!
