Submitted By: David Hamm In Memory of a amazing fallen Anon Now Angel: Liv Chase #LivStrong The Beauty of Three T he truth of society’s dichotomy, is nothing more than self sodomy. In every inference I detect, All you think you protect.  I see the complicity, within your duplicity. And the closer I inspect, the less, I come to expect. A t the start, no one knows of the simplicity. Which, we can start, Synchronicity. Once we all Just Breathe in and Breathe out And in this truth never doubt. That, all in which we believe, Exists, all  we can conceive. I n our hearts we stand as one , and we will never fight alone. As one we shall always  be beyond what we can see. All we can conceive to be. The beauty of the Three   Sinéad O'Connor- Thee Parting Glass

 Written By: George Lennox Aka Puck Arks Protection from Police Tactics Protection from Electrical Weapons F or every attack, a defense. Since stun guns have found their way into common usage, people have discussed how to successfully defend oneself from them. The answer isn’t quite as complicated as it might seem. The basic premise is: you allow the electric prongs to complete their circuit before the electricity goes into your skin.  W ith the newer TASERs, at least, you can’t just allow the prongs to not penetrate into your skin because of their “shaped pulses” that somehow shock you through clothing. Further, it’s been suggested that you can’t just complete the prongs circuit, be- cause if the prongs are in you, you’ll get shocked and/or burned.  W hile we’ve found no information on DIY methods being tested, we did run across the commercial product announced early in 2008, a fabric called Thor Shield, manufactured by G2 Consulti...

  Photo Credit: Survivors Standing Strong     Written By: Hugo Omar Aghosta L et me start with a basic truth and I preface it all by saying, I am a Buddhist-trained atheist with no belief in god or an afterlife. It is here, right now, that we can make a difference. ” I n one sense all Buddhists are courageous warriors. They do fight, but not with weapons and bombs. They do kill, but not innocent men, women and children. With whom and with what do they fight? Whom do they mercilessly kill? They fight with themselves, for man is the worst enemy of man. Mind is his worst foe and best friend. Ruthlessly they kill the passions of lust, hatred and ignorance that reside in this mind by morality, concentration and wisdom.  T hose who prefer to battle with passions alone in solitude are perfectly free to do so. Bhikkhus who live in seclusion are noteworthy examples. To those contended ones, solitude is happiness. Those who seek delight in battling ...

By: Hugo Omar Aghosta Part 1 I 'm certain that the political posts get to be too much, but few are as obsessed as I am about how we got into this mess. It's really quite simple as I look back over it. Starting in 1960, Eisenhower warned of the danger of the military-industrial complex. More than a term bandied about to make memes with, the threat was real and is now our reality. The final straw was the passage of Citizens United which allowed unlimited contributions to lawmakers. Naturally, many of those donating are in the arms, banking, oil and pharmaceutical businesses. No longer a joke, "pay-to-play" is the norm, not the exception. Some might remember when bribes to Congress were illegal, now it is sanctioned and supported by law. S ince before the breakup of the Soviet Union, the CIA has been involved in chicanery in foreign countries. Deposing a "dictator," replacing him with a puppet who represented "U.S." interests...
