Once again I'm compelled to reiterate the danger to all civilization on this planet if Iran is not prevented from acquiring a nuclear weapon. I say acquire in stead of making because they are receiving help from Russia and China to mention the big ones, there are others. First, The security council has voted for sanctions but two of the 5 members, Russia and China, are blatantly ignoring them. Russia has taken an "about face" on democracy in their country and are using the sale of arms to Iran to rebuild their own war coffers. They have returned to the old school of thought regarding business. The gov is now purchasing the interest of the largest co. and by doing so inhibit free trade and competition. Both which are corner stones of a Democratic free society. They have resorted to the old practice of "quieting" those in media that don't see things the same as they do. Many have been permanently silenced and those still alive and in legitimate fear, are forced to leave or go underground."Censorship is the weapon that politicians use to destroy their enemies" JFK. Putin just returned from a trip to Iran and now Ahmadinejad is planning to reciprocate. Russia has been instrumental in helping build the nuclear power plant/uranium enrichment plant in a town ironically called Bushaire...China has been buying Oil(16%) of their total import comes from Iran. And now selling military hardware to them. Both of those are in direct violation of the security Councils Resolution banning forien trade, other than humanitarian aid. Remember both China and Russia have seats on that council? Its rumored that China just completed a large sale of "next" generation Jet fighters to Iran. Russia, China and Iran have all atleast doubled their miliary budgets in the last couple of years. It appears they are preparing for a large scale war.... who do you think will be looking down their barrels???France(and their new President Zarcosie-who is acting all cozy ?)most notably along with other EAU countries have recently got more vocal and are employing their own sanctions and should be applauded! Finally France and its new President seem to be waking up to the danger.

Senses are the physiological methods of perception, a system that consists of cell types(or group of cells) that respond to physical phenomena that relates to SIGHT, SOUND, TOUCH, SMELL or TASTES and corresponds to a defined part of our brains when signals are received and interpreted. Now everyone is familiar and clear about these senses and how they work. There is another sense that I believe is as important to our existence as those five. Its not as easy to identify or explain but it exists and its the reason why, when people question how I arrived at a specific theory or belief in something, I can explain. A couple more definitions from the dictionary that will help you understand what I am now trying to "Illuminate". Intuition- 1) The immediate apprehension of an object by the mind without the intervention of any reasoning process 2) Knowledge of conviction gained by intuition 3)power of faculty of gaining knowledge or cognition without evidence, or rational thought. Now, this next statement is very important to understanding how I arrive where I Do with forecasts and projections and predictions. Intuition is different than opinion! Intuition is gained from experiencing things and forming a "Hunch" based on all the different facts received during those experiences. While opinions are based on the experiences of others. Read that sentence again so you fully grasp it. Its similar to when I say, Looking at something or viewing it is dramatically different than observing that something. Ok now, you've heard sayings like "gut feeling" or "Gut reaction" or "sick to my stomach" those are the bodily reactions triggered by the the "Sixth" sense or Intuition. It has a scientific name called "epigastric" and is described as a "Weak" sinking anxious feeling in the stomach sometimes causing nausea. I believe this is a direct effect of the bodies natural "Fight or Flight" mechanism. When we detect something our mind immediately processes it and makes a determination about the level of danger to us. If danger is detected The body begins a physiological process of shutting down any function not absolutely necessary to escaping that danger or fighting it. So, blood flow to you stomach is shut down(no need for digestion right now) and is diverted to your extremities to aid muscle function. This causes a "GUT FEELING" Following so far? Now, this sense is possessed by all of us. But, it molds itself on the life of each individual. So, An Ashwar Indian(The Indians I Stayed with on a trip to The Amazon) have their "Sixth" sense tuned to make them more aware of their surroundings in the Rain forest. It was made evident on the daily treks into the rain forest. We would be stopped and told to look at something the guide spotted or sensed and then be astounded that we were oblivious to that which was now "Illuminated". People who live and I mean live on the streets of New York are keenly aware of their surroundings, they must or they wont survive. Race car drivers can sense what another driver is going to do, and adjusts. Cooks in a kitchen can sense when food is done or needs more of some ingredient.. and so on. This post was written to respond(not that i feel obligated, but if it will help my cause why not)Those who question why they should believe what I say and take what forecasts I make about our future without my having a "formal" degree in those subjects. Well Once again I'm going to make a statement based on MY opinion. Life is the greatest of all Teachers! I have experienced a lot in my life and i have observed life in many of its diverse forms, from putting my hand on the edge of the Polar Ice Cap(that spot has since melted), diving the Great Barrier Reef in Australia, spending time in an ecological reserve in the Amazon, retracing Darwin's steps in the Galapagos Islands, observing receding Glaciers in New Zealand, Argentina, northern Canada and Alaska, and so so much more. I have been blessed in many ways in my life. Having the ability to travel around the world and making the choice to take "The roads least traveled" has to be one of the tops on my blessing list. I have traveled extensively on every continent except Antarctica. And had, without early intention, begun to hone "MY" "Sixth" sense. And as years went on and sensing my focus on all the workings of life I was more and more in tune with that which was the focus of my observations. There is a reason why my sixth sense has been fine tuning itself and is now, to my unhappiness some times, acutely aware of what is going in our world today. Not to say I'm the only one because by far I'm not. To understand if it matters to anyone, check out "Burden or Blessing" only time will tell. Its located in "faith or fiction" I wrote it in response to a very strange dream I had a few years back.... The problems that exist today are not going to go away on their own. We will see dramatic changes(they have all ready begun)that will significantly change the way we live, and if not addressed now, will create a world that will be so foreign to what we are used that none of you will want to live to see the next day! Yes, I know that is a very dark and scary statement, undoubtedly dismissed by many if not all of you. "Things" can be done, but it will require the largest collective effort ever put forth by mankind. I now believe that my only obligation in all this is to "Illuminate" it. Its up to you to decide to believe or not and take action or not..... that's the beauty of "Free Will". Ive had many people ask me, "what can I do I'm only ONE person?" To that I say look back at the history of the world.... You'll see its always one person who is the driving force of any change, regardless of its Good or Evil. A little updated info to reinforce the urgency..... According to the most recent published issue of Science Journal reporting on health of our Oceans. Its now consensus that if radical changes don't occur, we will, not could lose 90% of Oceans edible species by 2048! 29% have all ready collapsed. That is a direct quote. I also read a recent, and very alarming, report/update showing computer models on the future status of the Polar Ice Cap.- stating we will lose all, THATS ALL, of it by mid century, that's 2050. This coincides with a horrible sinking feeling in my gut that something, I'm working feverishly to identify what, is about to happen that is going to forever change the world and not in a way we will find acceptable! I know its coming as sure as I am that the Sun will rise tomorrow! Now, for the fact that I could be wrong.... there is not 100% assurance that the Sun will rise tomorrow, it's a good bet but you can't say guaranteed. It's now or NEVER! Wake America, Wake up world!

Searing sunlight burning bright, the signal; the end of dark silent peaceful night. The children at the windows peer, parents confused; paralyzed by fear. The children want out from the walls, like jail. Anxious for release from incarceration. Bats and balls one kid with a pail. Running and jumping outside they want to play. But, because of the climate; inside they must stay. The pumps of gas are at critical low, finance, markets and economy are slow. America has dropped the torch, by allowing China to carry one. Athletes like children, look forward towards the fun, thats because they are naive to the pollution in which they'll run. Turn right, turn left which way do we go? Our choices are limited that I know. The future is uncertain, for that I'm certain. Supermarket produce is on the list, as endangered as some species, my sorrow i resist. The masses are hiding their heads in the sand, the apathy that unites them must disband. A new conscinousnesss is a must, the skeptics who number few, we can not trust. Schools are closed; education no more. Sports are over, 0 to 0 is the final score. joram 07

One of my favorite movies of all time is a little known film staring Bert Lancaster as the CEO of an oil company that wants to build a refinery on the pristine cost of Scotland outside a sleepy little village filled with wonderful characters and i mean literally characters. It also stars Peter Rigert As the company rep sent to negotiate and purchase the property from the town. He ends falling in love with the people and slowly begins to see how beautiful the coast and surrounding hillsides really is and ends up stalling for time to come up with a way to kill the deal. Burt Lancaster is an eccentric billionaire who just so happens to be humbled by only one thing and that is what eventually saves the town. The aura bore ellis or northern lights. The movie is extremely funny and worth renting. Why, am i telling you this?? I don't know.......... just kidding. I just saw a news clip about The Donald(Donald Trump) and a new venture. It just so happens that its a piece of property on the coast and you guessed it in Scotland. Matter of fact if i didn't know i would swear its the same beach and shoreline! He intends to build the worlds largest and most lavish golf course and resort. But, he has some opposition from locals who could have been taken right from characters in the film. One farmer in particular who is going to give Donald a run for his money mirrors the the main character opposing the sale. A homeles man who lives on the beach and assumes the self appointed role of beach protecter. Unfortunately, as is only too true. Fiction is fiction and money is fact. So, even if the northern light shine brighter than ever.... golfers will be the only ones enjoying them.

I will premise this post by stating, "Of all pro sports baseball is my least favorite." The Players are overpaid, The season is way to long, the reg. season games lack luster, and i cant stand to watch 30 grown men standing around spitting all night. And finally, it took steroid induced power to elevate the excitement, without it baseball would be close to dead... Now, that said, i still am a sports fan in gen and i do follow baseball to some extent. Enough to be able to make the determination that George Steinbrenner has just made a major mistake by firing Joe Torre. This man has more integrity and class than most coaches/managers from any sport. He took a high priced bunch of Egos and found a way to make them work as a team and win and win he has.12 years in row they made it to the post season. No other team can boast that record. 4 world series title in his 12yr run. Post season/playoffs are influenced a lot by luck. When your in a best of 5 series it can go either way. Look at how poorly A-Rod, the way over paid highest contract in sports history player, plays in the post season..... New York is the best and the worst of markets and takes a special manager to keep the players focused, which he did for one reason, his players respected him.... George good luck finding a manager to fill those cleats....there awfully big!
