The Largest Religion In Every State Other Than Christianity - Business Insider

The Largest Religion In Every State Other Than Christianity

The United States is a majorly Christian nation. 

But this map, first seen on Mark J Perry's Twitter, answers the burning question of what faiths come in second place in each state.

Association of Statisticians of American Religious Bodies

Based on data from Association of Statisticians of American Religious Bodies, which contributes to the religious portion of the census each decade, the map displays colors for various religions.

As you can see, the Northeast gravitates toward Judaism, while Buddhism engulfs the entire West coast. Twenty states across Middle America and the South practice Islam, making it the largest non-Christian religion in the country. But one following sticks out — Baha'i in South Carolina.

Baha'is of the United States

Baha'i communities across South Carolina.

Take a look at the spread of Baha'i communities across the Palmetto state, according to the official website of the Baha'is of the United States.  

Baha'i is the world's youngest independent religion, founded in 1817. Practitioners believe that humanity constitutes a single race which should unify into a global society. Belief in one God, as well as daily meditation and prayer, will help the human race achieve oneness. Because of these ideals, Baha'is come from a wide variety of social and ethnic backgrounds.

Here's another version of the second largest religion at the county level, found on the Washington Post.

Humanity, single race...?....many routes.

Learning Hacks That Will Maximize Your Memory - Business Insider

7 Memory Skills That Will Make You Way Smarter

Good Will Hunting

Learning ability is probably the most important skill you can have. 

Take it from Peter Brown, Henry Roediger, and Mark McDaniel, authors of "Make It Stick: The Science Of Successful Learning." 

"We need to keep learning and remembering all our lives," they write. "Getting ahead at work takes mastery of job skills and difficult colleagues ... If you're good at learning, you have an advantage in life." 

And to learn something is to be able to remember it, say the authors, two of whom are psychology professors at Washington University in St. Louis.

Unfortunately, lots of the techniques for learning that we pick up in school don't actually help with long-term recall — like cramming or highlighting. 

To get over these bad habits, we scoured "Make It Stick" for learning tips. 

But be warned: If it's difficult, it's good thing. 

"Learning is deeper and more durable when it's effortful," the authors write. "Learning that's easy is like writing in sand, here today and gone tomorrow." 

Here are the takeaways: 

Retrieval: Bring it back from memory.

When you're attempting to recall an idea, method, or technique from memory, you're retrieving. Flash cards are a great example: They force you to recall an idea from memory, unlike a technique like highlighting where you're not burning anything into your brain. The reason retrieval's so effective is that it strengthens the neural pathways associated with a given concept. 

Elaboration: Connect new ideas to what you already know.

When you try to put a new idea into your own words, you're elaborating. 

"The more you can explain about the the way your new learning relates to prior knowledge," the authors write, "the stronger your grasp of the new learning will be, and the more connections you create that will help you remember it later." 

For instance, if you're in physics class and trying to understand heat transfer, try to tie the concept into your real-life experiences, like by imagining how a warm cup of coffee disperses heat into your hands. 

Interleaving: Varying your subjects. 

When you work on a variety of things at once, you're interleaving. If you're trying to understand a subject — from the basics of economics to hitting a pitch — you're going to learn better if you mix up your examples. A sports case: Batters who do batting practice with a mix of fastballs, change ups, and curveballs hit for a higher average. The interleaving helps because when you're out there in the wild, you need to first discern what kind of problem you're facing before you can start to find a solution, like a ball coming from a pitcher's hand.

Generation: Answer before you have an answer.

When you try to give an answer before it's given to you, you're generating. "By wading into the unknown first and puzzling through it, you are far more likely to learn and remember the solution than if somebody first sat down to teach it to you," the authors write. In an academic setting, you could work finding your own answers before class starts. In a professional setting, you could supply your own ideas when you're stuck before talking with your boss. 

Reflection: Evaluate what happened.

When you take a few moments to review what happened with a project or meeting, you're reflecting. You might ask yourself a few questions: What went well? Where can you improve? What does it remind you of? Harvard Business School researchers have found reflective writing to be super powerful. Just 15 minutes of written reflection at the end of the day increased performance by 23% for one group of employees. 

Mnemonics: Use hacks to recall. 

When you're using an acronym or image to recall something, you're using a mnemonic. The hall of fame includes abbreviations — Roy G. Biv for the colors of the spectrum (Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet) — and rhyming, like "in 1492, Columbus sailed the ocean blue."

"Mnemonics are not tools for learning per se," the authors write, "but for creating mental structures that make it easier to retrieve what you have learned."

Calibration: Know what you don't know.

When you get feedback that reveals your ignorance to you, you're calibrating. "Calibration is simply the act of using an objective instrument to clear away illusions and adjust your judgment to better reflect reality." This is necessary since we all suffer from "cognitive illusions": We think we understand something when we really don't. So taking a quiz — or gathering feedback from a colleague — helps you to identify those blind spots.  

For a deeper dig into the science of learning, make sure to pick up "Make It Stick." It's an illuminating read.

DIMPLE.IO - Your own custom Android buttons! | Indiegogo

https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/dimple-io-your-own-custom-android-buttons

DIMPLE.IO - Your own custom Android buttons!

HOW TO GET A FREE DIMPLE:

1. You have to be logged in to your Indiegogo account.
2. Use any of the share buttons below the campaign video or copy and share the link in the browser address bar. If anyone contributes to our campaign by using your link, you get one point.
3. After campaign ends, we will select 50 of the top referrers and award them with one DIMPLE in a color of their choice, so if at least two of your friends contribute- you could get a free DIMPLE. If three friends contribute- definitely a sealed deal, you are getting a free DIMPLE.
4. Let's start sharing!

DIMPLE is a small sticker or protective case with user-configurable buttons that you attach to the rear side of your Android NFC-enabled gadgets. Buttons can launch apps, change settings, turn on the flashlight and much, much more. You can double the button count by assigning a long-press function.

DIMPLE STANDARD & MINI PRODUCT WORKS ONLY WITH ANDROID 4.0+ NFC-ENABLED GADGETS (EXCLUDES HTC ONE M7 & M8 and other metal devices), FOR HTC ONE COMPATIBILITY, PLEASE CHOOSE THE PROTECTIVE CASE OPTION.

(Buttons below will not work if you read this on a mobile device)

Attached in close proximity (even over a case) to your device's NFC reader, DIMPLE lets you extend the functionality to your own liking, from launching your favorite social network app, to launching sophisticated Tasker tasks or your own developed plugins through DIMPLE API.

„If the final product is half as good as it sounds, it's likely to be a big hit." CNET 

„The DIMPLE goes above and beyond the call of duty with a set of four easy-to-install buttons that can be customized to do almost anything you want." GIZMODO

„What makes the DIMPLE stand out from solutions like Pressy is that you don't have to sacrifice anything to use it." AndroidAuthority

„These days most smartphones only have buttons for the most crucial of tasks. Some of us still prefer having hardware buttons. DIMPLE aims to fill that gap." Ubergizmo

„DIMPLE.IO is a project that is likely going to make a lot of Android users very happy, because it adds four buttons to your device that you can do whatever you want with." GEEK

You define your experience with DIMPLE, from controlling what each button will do, to its  placement according to your own ergonomics. DIMPLE is designed to give you total control over its functionality and to fit your personal needs and requirements.

The "One size fits all" approach rarely truly works. We believe that everyone- from the average Joe to power users - should have the ability to customize their gadgets just the way they want them without ever picking up a drill or an axe. We approached the user experience with DIMPLE with the following principles in mind:

Customization should not be intimidating or difficult. This is why we designed DIMPLE to be quick to set up and use right out of the box. The companion app user interface is incredibly easy to understand, even though it packs a lot of advanced features. Application of DIMPLE is super easy, and you have a thingy called "training wheels" to try and feel the best location to apply the dimple. If you have ever applied a sticker without burning a house down, you will be able to apply DIMPLE. If you can use a smartphone, you can use DIMPLE.

Every human is built differently, though we still get to use the same gadgets. Heck, if you are left-handed, you probably sometimes think that the world has turned on you. No more. You can apply the DIMPLE sticker in practically unlimited positions in close proximity to the NFC antenna of your device. For most gadgets, this means all of the rear side; for tablets and phablets- just a part of the rear side. The DIMPLE offers tactile feedback- hear a "click" on every push of a button in addition to haptic feedback. Every button has a patented groove around it with a braille dimple in the middle. Your fingers will be able to distinct each button in any situation. 

Functionality means different things to different people. So we did not want to design a rigid one-solution-fits-everyone product. Instead we spent many months in the dark actually developing an application that will never be finished in a sense of constant evolution. The Beta, which will suit every need of the average user, is already online. We are now working closely with numerous partners to bring a small ecosystem of third party plugins and integrations into some of the world's coolest apps when the product ships.

Don't want to write code? Create some unique Tasker tasks and tie them to our companion app. 

Feel like coding? Welcome, please visit- dimple.io/developers

(The button above will not work on mobile devices)

 

NOTE: The software is still being worked on and a lot of functionality will be added in the coming months; for example, doubling the functionality by allowing users to define different actions on long presses, and so on. Better than promising undeliverable (and sometimes unneeded) functionality, we want you to be informed that this is our MVP (Minimum Viable Product).
Extra functions will be developed according to their overall importance based on the BETA tester and early customer feedback by employing all the resources available. This is just the beginning of the feature set offered, we have a lot of cool things up our sleeve for the near future.

Portfolio

In addition to our core team, we've assembled an incredible group of engineers, designers, and industry experts who are collaborating with us to create the best product possible. Our manufacturing partners include some of the biggest industry players, some of which are Fortune 500 companies. We have some people that speak legalese in our circles as well. Manufacturing deals with our partners have already been struck, and most of the logistics obstacles have been worked out.

We have been working on this product for the past 18 months and have gone through 12 iterations of prototypes. We feel like we are ready for the market with the current iteration. 

We have manufactured the first mass-production test batch of 250 DIMPLE Beta units. We are trying to address some assembly scaling problems and combat some unwanted adhesive defects. 

We're now focused on:

• Catching any hardware bugs in the Beta batch
• Make the assembly process scale-able
• Finding the best adhesive solution
• Trimming off some thickness

We will soon begin the process of:

• Exploring extra color options
• Getting CE certification
• Finishing the supply chain process
• Final tooling
• Material procurement
• Final (retail) packaging design
• Production
• Buying a lot of envelopes

Development of the second generation DIMPLE has already been started, and we hope to release first details in early November with a shipping date set for the 2014 holiday season.

Take a look at the project timeline below:

We have been working on DIMPLE for the past year and a half, and we've come a long way. Thus far we have covered our expenses by depleting our personal savings accounts and credit cards. We received a $15k grant from the municipality of Riga, LVA to cover some of the prototyping expenses, so there is a whole city of 0.7 million inhabitants that believes in us!

Manufacturing a tangible product on a large scale is just too much for a bootstrapped startup. The current cost to manufacture a single unit in small batches is astronomical. This is where you come in. Your support will allow us to buy components in bulk, as well as initiate tooling and mass production so we can bring DIMPLE to you and  millions of people who believe that buttons rock. Let's make our gadgets personal again; together, we can do it!

So why should you support us?

• Be the first to get one (literally)
• You believe that real buttons rock
• You never had dimples
• You want to belong to an exclusive clique 

(The button above will not work on mobile devices)

Will it work with my device?

Based on our approximations there are currently around 800 devices with which the DIMPLE will work. This sadly excludes HTC One (M7 & M8) because of its metal body. Creating a device out of metal usually requires the engineers to make some sacrifices in terms of antenna location and affects our customers' ability to position DIMPLE ergonomically on a HTC One. So, if your device runs Android 4.0 and above, is not made out of metal, and has NFC technology, you are safe to assume that DIMPLE will work with it.

No HTC One?

Designing a metal body forces engineers to get creative. The result of this creativity is that the NFC antenna is located around the camera ring. You would have to sacrifice the camera to make the DIMPLE work. No cases or covers will solve this.

Can it be reused?

Even though the adhesive used allows for easy removal, each time you remove a DIMPLE from your device's surface, the adhesive properties will deteriorate and that may compromise the longevity of the DIMPLE. You should be fine for at least 5-10 attachments and removals. After that, the DIMPLE may not stick to the surface as well as when it was new. We are exploring options to use adhesive that can be reused as many times as you want, without compromising the thinness of DIMPLE.

Where can I put it?

In close proximity to the NFC antenna of the device. For most gadgets, it means the rear side of the device. For tablets, it means a part of the rear side. 

The only gadget we have yet found to play well with DIMPLE on the front is the Sony Z2 Tablet.

The maximum range (like a really thick case) of how far you can locate the DIMPLE from the reader antenna is around 5 cm (2 in).

How about battery life?

Latest generation NFC reader chips embedded in our gadgets will consume little to no noticeable amounts of your device's battery life. Keeping NFC on should not take away more than 5 minutes of your daily battery life.

How big is it?

49 x 16 x 0.49 mm or 1.92 x 0.66 x 0.019 inches.

Can I use other NFC devices with DIMPLE on my device?

Yes.

Will it work with the screen off?

Currently, due to security concerns, this functionality is disabled in stock Android. We are working closely with the Google Android team to find a way to bring this to the next versions of the operating system. For the time being, you have to root your device and install the xposed framework.

Will it work with my case?

DIMPLE can be attached directly to your case instead of to the surface of your device. Unless the case is made out of metal, you should be fine.

How about accidental triggering?

We have engineered the buttons impossible to be pressed unintentionally. The buttons are flush with the surface of the DIMPLE.

How long will it last?

If you applied the DIMPLE carefully, the adhesive should outlast your gadget upgrade cycle. Our tests have concluded that each button can withstand about 2 million clicks, and you can reassign the functionality of around 100,000 times before the button memory wears out.

Are you sure that you can pull this off?

Our team currently consists of 4 full-time people, and each of us has previous experience working in a hardware startup with expertise ranging from electrical engineering and logistics to marketing strategies and intellectual property. We have already manufactured a small test batch of 250 DIMPLEs that should be 99% of what the final product will be. Manufacturing agreements with our partners have already been made, and we should be up and manufacturing approximately a week after our crowdfunding campaign ends and we have surveyed our backers.

How about other platforms, like Windows Mobile?

We are currently exploring the options of other platforms. Stay tuned.

Can I use it for gaming?

To some extent- yes. Depends on the games. Mostly: no. Due to the construction of this version of the DIMPLE, it cannot accept multiple button presses at the same time. You will have to wait until the Christmas 2014 to get a DIMPLE v2 which will support gaming.

Power Outside The Matrix - Marketplace-NoMoreFakeNews.com

http://marketplace.mybigcommerce.com/power-outside-the-matrix/

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

POWER OUTSIDE THE MATRIX

Copyright © 2014 by Jon Rappoport

(For the technical specifications of this digital product, click here.)

Power Outside The Matrix has been 30 years in the making, and I'm very happy to announce it is now available.

This mega-collection is all about achieving power outside The Matrix and stabilizing that power.

It features a long section called: Analyzing Information in the Age of Disinformation.

This section is filled with specific examples of my past investigations. Based on 25 years of experience, it shows you how to take apart and put together data that lead to valid conclusions.

It is far more than a logic course.

It's an advanced approach to analysis.

Establishing power outside The Matrix requires that a person be able to deal with today's flood of information, misinformation, and disinformation. I've left no stone unturned in bringing you a workable approach to analysis.

There is a further extensive section titled, A Writer's Tutorial. People have been asking me to provide this Tutorial, and here it is in spades. But it's not just for writers. It's for any creative person who wants to grasp his own power, understand it, and use it to reach out into the world.

My Tutorial exposes you to lessons that go far beyond what is normally taught in writer's seminars. In fact, several core concepts in the Tutorial contradict ordinary writer's seminars, and thus give you access to inner resources that would otherwise be ignored.

Another section of this mega-collection, titled Power Outside The Matrix and The Invention of New Reality, features creative exercises you do on a daily basis that will help you move toward the goal of power outside The Matrix. The exercises are all about increasing your energy and stability.

Access to your internal energy, in huge amounts, is necessary for a life outside The Matrix---rather than relying on the illusory energy that The Matrix seems to provide.

This is a key fact. I've developed the exercises for exactly that purpose: your energy, your dynamism, independent and self-sufficient.  

And finally, I have included a number of audio seminars that offer a wider perspective about The Matrix and what it means to live and work outside it.

Here are the particulars. These are audio presentations. 55 total hours.

* Analyzing Information in the Age of Disinformation (11.5-hours)

* Writer's Tutorial (8.5-hours)

* Power Outside The Matrix and The Invention of New Reality (6.5-hours)

Then you will receive the following audio presentations I have previously done:

* The Third Philosophy of Imagination (1-hour)

* The Infinite Imagination (3-hours)

* The Mass Projection of Events (1.5-hours)

* The Decentralization of Power (1.5-hours)

* Creating the Future (6-hours)

* Pictures of Reality (6-hours)

* The Real History of America (2-hours)

* Corporations: The New Gods (7.5-hours)

I have included an additional bonus section:

* The complete text (331 pages) of AIDS INC., the book that exposed a conspiracy of scientific fraud deep within the medical research establishment. The book has become a sought-after item, since its publication in 1988. It contains material about viruses, medical testing, and the invention of disease that is, now and in the future, vital to our understanding of phony epidemics arising in our midst (and how to analyze them). I assure you, the revelations in the book will surprise you; they cut much deeper and are more subtle than "virus made in a lab" scenarios.

* A 2-hour radio interview I did on AIDS in Dec 1987 with host Roy Tuckman on KPFK in Los Angeles, California.

* My book, The Secret Behind Secret Societies

At the core of consciousness, there are two impulses in the individual. The first is: give in, surrender. The second is: express power without limit.

The teaching of every civilization and society is: don't use your power.

When you follow the second path, when you express your power without limits, remarkable things happen.

The veil of illusion melts away.

You meet yourself on new ground.

You know what your freedom is for.

Without imposing on the freedom of others, you live the life you always wanted.

That's what Power Outside The Matrix is all about.

Jon Rappoport

2014 and counting.....

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

EXIT FROM THE MATRIX

Copyright © 2013 by Jon Rappoport

(For the technical specifications of this digital product, click here.)

This mega-collection, EXIT FROM THE MATRIX, is the realization of a goal I've been pursuing for the last 15 years.

It's intensely practical. It contains more than 50 new exercises and techniques aimed at expanding the power, range, and scope of the imagination---along with very simple instructions on how to use these exercises.

Imagination is the buried key that unlocks the door that exits from the Matrix.

This collection also contains a presentation of the vital philosophy that underpins the limitless power of the individual. This is more than theory. It's a guide to exiting from the Matrix.

From what is in EXIT FROM THE MATRIX, from the huge amount of material, I think you'll see I've made no short cuts. In fact, I've done everything possible to go the extra mile.

So let's get to the details. Here is the list of my brand new audio presentations:

* INTRODUCTION: HOW TO USE THE MATERIALS IN EXIT FROM THE MATRIX

* EXIT FROM THE MATRIX

* 50 IMAGINATION EXERCISES

* FURTHER IMAGINATION EXERCISES

* ANESTHESIA, BOREDOM, EXCITEMENT, ECSTASY

* ANCIENT TIBET AND THE UNIVERSE AS A PRODUCT OF MIND

* YOU THE INVENTOR, MINDSET, AND FREEDOM FROM "THE EXISTENCE PROGRAM"

* PARANORMAL EXPERIMENTS AND EXERCISES

* CHILDREN AND IMAGINATION

* THE CREATIVE LIFE AND THE MATRIX/IMAGINATION

* PICTURES OF REALITY AND ESCAPE VELOCITY FROM THE MATRIX

* THIS WOULD BE A VERY DIFFERENT FUTURE

* MODERN ZEN

* THE GREAT PASSIONS AND THE GREAT ANDRIODS

Then you will receive the following audio seminars I have previously done:

* Mind Control, Mind Freedom

* The Transformations

* Desire, Manifestation and Fulfillment

* Altered States, Consciousness, and Magic

* Beyond Structures

* The Mystery and Magic of Dialogue

* The Voyage of Merlin

* Modern Alchemy and Imagination

* Imagination and Spiritual Enlightenment

* Dissolving Stress

* The Paranormal Project

* Zen Painting for Everyone Now

* Past Lives, Archetypes, and Hidden Sources of Human Energy

* Expression of Self

* Imagination Exercises for a Lifetime

* Old Planet, New Planet, New Mind

* The Era of Magic Returns

* Your Power Revealed

* Universes Without End

* Relationships

* Building a Business for Success

I have included an additional bonus section:

* My book, The Secret Behind Secret Societies (pdf document)

* My book, The Ownership of All Life (pdf document)

* A long excerpt from my briefly published book, Full Power (pdf document)

* My 24 articles in the series, "Coaching the Coaches" (pdf document)

And these audio seminars:

* The Role of Medical Drugs in Human Illness

* Longevity One: The Mind-Body Connection

* Longevity Two: The Nutritional Factors

What has been called The Matrix is a series of layers. These layers compose what we call Reality. Reality is not merely the consensus people accept in their daily lives. It is also a personal and individual conception of limits. It is a perception that these limits are somehow built into existence. But this is not true.

What I've done here is remove the lid on those perceived limits. This isn't an intellectual undertaking. It's a way to open up space and step on to a new road.

That road travels to more and more creative power, joy, and fulfillment.

During that great adventure, the individual experiences what has been labeled "paranormal" and "synchronistic" and "magical." These words really don't do us justice. They only hint at what we are and what we can do.

I put this collection together because it expresses, explains, and shows, in detail, how the individual can rediscover and reclaim his/her true power.

That process, that engagement, that life is beyond solving problems. Our problems, at the core, exist only because we have "misplaced an infinity."

Everything I've done and written in the past 20 years has been aimed, one way or another, at bringing back that infinity, seeing through the layers of disguise, and moving ahead on the sunlit road we all desire.

This collection is for you, for me, for all of us.

We have, each one of us, an infinite life, lived in a world that is convinced it is bounded.

It's time we dissolved that false contradiction.

Tesla's Clever Patent Move Is Already Paying Off

Tesla may already be reaping the rewards of freeing up its patents.

Four days after CEO Elon Musk offered most of his company's patents to rivals in hopes of cultivating a bigger electric car market, Nissan and BMW are "keen on talks" to cooperate on charging networks, the Financial Times reported on Sunday.

That pretty much validates why the Silicon Valley company freed up its patents in the first place: Tesla wants its superchargers to become the industry standard.

That way, other companies will use and enlarge Tesla's existing network of 97 charging stations that currently dot a path across the continental United States, making it more and more feasible to swap fuel-burning cars for battery-electric ones, even for long-distance travel.

Here's Tesla's current network of 97 charging stations:

Think of electric cars in terms of smartphones.

Tesla -– long compared to Apple, with its sleek design, luxury prices and chargers that exclusively plug in to Apple products –- now wants to become open-source like Android. Like the micro-USB chargers that fit Android and Blackberry smartphones, all compatible cars could use Tesla's superchargers.

"It makes natural sense," Carter Driscoll, senior analyst of clean technology at MLV & Co., told The Huffington Post. "BMW and Nissan see that you have a company here that's dedicated to electric vehicles."

Alexis Georgeson, a Tesla spokeswoman, declined to comment.

BMW spokesman Kenn Sparks confirmed that executives from the German automaker met with Tesla, but declined to comment on the supercharger network. Nissan spokesman Travis Parman said it is working with "with numerous partners across the world" to develop the charging infrastructure.

"We welcome others joining in the effort as we believe universally compatible charging will further accelerate [electric vehicle] adoption," Parman said in a statement emailed to HuffPost.

BMW -- which last week released its i8, meant to compete with the Tesla Model S, in Germany -- said on Friday it had talks with Tesla on "how to further strengthen the development of electro-mobility on an international level."

Seemingly in response to the news, Tesla's stock price rallied to its highest point in months on Monday.

So, why design new chargers and invest in building a whole new infrastructure for BMW and Nissan drivers? The Tesla network already stretches from coast to coast and is expected to expand rapidly over the next year.

Here's what Tesla's network of charging stations could look like by the end of 2015:

This seems to have been Musk's plan all along.

Tesla's planned "gigafactory," due to start production in 2020, will be the biggest battery-making facility in the world. At peak production, it alone will create 500,000 lithium-ion packs a year, more than all batteries produced worldwide last year.

That's more than enough to fuel the competition, and then some.

This post has been updated to reflect that Tesla's patents were not trade secrets, and with statements from BMW and Nissan.

The Matrix Revealed, appeteaser...

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

THE MATRIX REVEALED

Copyright © 2012 by Jon Rappoport

(For the technical specifications of this digital product, click here.)

Let me start with the nuts and bolts of this product. It is enormous in scope and size. 

250 megabytes of information.

Over 1100 pages of text (pdf document).

Ten and a half hours of audio (mp3).

The 2 bonuses alone are rather extraordinary:

(Bonus 1) My complete 18-lesson course, LOGIC AND ANALYSIS, which includes the written teacher's manual and a audio to guide you. I was previously selling the course for $375. This is a new way to teach logic, the subject that has been missing from schools for decades.

(Bonus 2) The complete text (331 pages) of AIDS INC., the book that exposed a conspiracy of scientific fraud deep within the medical research establishment. The book has become a sought-after item, since its publication in 1988. It contains material about viruses, medical testing, and the invention of disease that is, now and in the future, vital to our understanding of phony epidemics arising in our midst.     I assure you, the revelations in the book will surprise you; they cut much deeper and are more subtle than "virus made in a lab" scenarios.

The heart and soul of this product are the text interviews I conducted with Matrix-insiders, who have first-hand knowledge of how the major illusions of our world are put together:

EILLIS MEDAVOY, master of PR, propaganda, and deception, who worked for key controllers in the medical and political arenas. 28 interviews, 290 pages.

RICHARD BELL, financial analyst and trader, whose profound grasp of market manipulation and economic-rigging is formidable, to say the least. 16 interviews, 132 pages.

JACK TRUE, the most creative hypnotherapist on the face of the planet. Jack's anti-Matrix understanding of the mind and how to liberate it is unparalleled. His insights are unique, staggering. 43 interviews, 320 pages.

Then there are several more interviews with brilliant analysts of the Matrix, including recent conversations. 53 pages.

The ten and a half hours of mp3 audio are my solo presentation, based on these interviews and my own research. Title: The Multi-Dimensional Planetary Chessboard—The Matrix Vs. the Un-Conditioning of the Individual.

Here is some background on the product and my own history:      

In 2001, I essentially left a career as an investigative reporter and rolled the dice on the emerging internet. I started a site called www.nomorefakenews.com

I didn't stop investigating and publishing, but my field of operation widened. My first big question was: WHO REALLY RUNS THE WORLD?

And my second was: WHOEVER THEY ARE, HOW DO THEY MANUFACTURE REALITY FOR THE POPULATION OF EARTH?

I was prepared to deal with these enormous questions, because I had contacts. These were people I had come to know well during my days as a reporter, writing for LA Weekly and other newspapers and magazines in the US and Europe—and also during a stint on radio at KPFK in Los Angeles.

These people, these contacts, were insiders.

They had deep knowledge in their fields:

PROPAGANDA; FINANCE; HYPNOTISM; MIND CONTROL; MEDICINE; INTELLIGENCE OPERATIONS...

There was a catch. They were unwilling to be cited as on-the-record sources in my articles. They knew they would suffer consequences if they went public.

Once I started my website, I did extensive research to confirm the credentials of my insiders. I wanted to make sure they were who they said they were. I wanted to verify they had worked where they said they had worked. This was a laborious process.

When I was sure, I began to interview them.

I wasn't certain where all this would go.

Gradually, I realized I was getting VERY high-level information on The Matrix. But this was the real Matrix.

As one of my sources described it:

"Imagine a factory that turns out illusions. And these illusions are woven together to make up what we think the world is."

The actual Matrix involves a number of areas: government; money; energy; the military; intelligence agencies; medicine; mega-corporations; psychology and mind control; science...

I started a members-only newsletter, and word quickly spread. Every Friday, I would email a newsletter to subscribers. Many of these newsletters were interviews with my insiders.

It was quite a job, keeping up with writing (public) daily articles for my site and also putting out the (private) newsletter. I was also collating the high-level information from my sources and making maps of the expanding territory.

I saw that I was looking at global CARTELS. As you will discover in reading this material, these cartels are not frozen organizations. They are evolving.

So now I've had some very competent assistance, and I've assembled the most important newsletter-interviews for you.

But in addition to that, I'm publishing, for the first time, interviews that never made it into those newsletters. And I'm presenting interviews from very recent days as well.

It's very instructive to talk to people who have been there on the inside. They are bright, they are informative, they convey the depth of situations they were involved with. They go beyond relaying dry facts, and in doing so, you learn how elite players play the game. You receive a rounded and three-dimensional picture of: the process of constructing The Matrix.How it's built.

In every case, each insider was relieved to be able to talk with utter frankness, with no fear that his words would be twisted or taken out of context or deleted. So you're getting the full story.

I met my first two insiders while I was writing my first book, AIDS INC., SCANDAL OF THE CENTURY, in 1987-88. The book was my initial experience in putting together a vast amount of data—which contradicted every official position on a supposedly rock-hard subject: medical science.

At the time, I didn't really understand how deep I was drilling down into a cardinal aspect of The Matrix. I only knew I was I digging up and exposing long-held delusions broadcast as facts by the Medical Cartel. These false realities went far beyond the subject of AIDS.

That first book of mine started as a pure lark. I had just published a piece in LA Weekly about certain televangelists and their support of an intentionally staged Armageddon in Israel. When the piece was published, I sat back and thought, "Where do I go from here? What could be weirder than this?"

Like other investigative reporters, I was excited by strange and bizarre stories that could blow readers' minds. I was motivated by that.

So, in 1987, I wondered what could be stranger than the Armageddon story I had just done.

Sitting in my Los Angeles studio, a thought popped into my head. "AIDS. I bet there's something about that whole thing that's pretty weird."

Little did I know...

That was my first big leap.

I had studied logic extensively in college. I had been taught by a philosophy professor who was a very generous soul and a relentless thinker. If you were an inch from accuracy, he would point it out, and he would give you the full reason and understanding that pulled you back to the straight and narrow.

Once I dove into research for AIDS INC., I was amazed at the sloppy thinking and contradiction that was posing as science.

And then I met my first two insiders.

Their basic message to me was: keep going; you're on the right track; we have a great deal more to share with you.

They weren't just talking about medical issues.

They were talking about the whole construction of reality from a number of angles.

Each of the insiders I have gotten to know over the subsequent years has a different personal story. They have all left their particular corner of The Matrix-Construction Group. Jack True, my late friend and colleague, was a different man altogether. He was never part of that Group. He was the most informed and brilliant researcher I've ever come across on the subject of the mind—the essential link that makes The Matrix work.

Jack started the ball rolling. He was instrumental in making the deal that got AIDS INC published. He introduced me to a few key figures along the way—insiders who proved invaluable.

Why did these insiders want to talk and spill secrets? Well, the process of interviewing them wasn't always easy. They could be thorny at times. But they all had seen, finally, the abyss toward which they were heading, toward which they were leading the population. And they pulled back.    

So...

This Volume is for individuals.

Because:

Beyond The Matrix is true individual power.

Despite all the illusions, it has always been there.

It waits for you.

And it IS your power.
