Peace be with you dear visitor.
This is where I'll be sharing with you some of the esoteric as well as the not-so-commonly-known exoteric knowledge that I come across.
Prince Charles has publicly admitted to being related to Dracula.
HRH Prince Charles appeared on the premiere of the upcoming TV show “Wild Carpathia.” The television
show seeks to raise awareness for the Transylvanian Forest of
Carpathia, which maintains a traditional Romanian heritage in light of
the country’s stampede to modernize.
In the television show premiere, Prince Charles confesses to having relations to Vlad the Impaler, aka Dracula.
“The genealogy shows that I am descended from Vlad the Impaler,” Prince Charles told TV host Charlie Ottley.
“So I have a bit of a stake in the country,” he added.
Vlad
the Impaler was a 15th century Romanian warlord who ruled primarily
during the Ottoman conquest of the Balkans. He was known for his cruel
fighting tactics, including impaling his enemies. Rumor has it he dipped
his bread in the blood of his victims.
His patronymic name was “Dracula,” the meaning of which is disputed
to be either “dragon,” because his father was a member of the Order of
the Dragon, or “son of the devil.”
Irish author Bram Stoker used
Vlad the Impaler as inspiration for the character of vampire Count
Dracula in his 1897 novel “Dracula.”
According to BBC News, Queen Mary is said to be related to Vlad the Impaler.
“It
is known that porphyria, an iron deficiency, which is thought to lie
behind the vampire myth, has run in the Royal Family,” added BBC News.
Prince
Charles has always advocated his love for Transylvania, once dubbing it
a “national treasure” for its untouched natural beauty and antiquity.
Transylvania,
although possessing a stagnant economy, has been regarded as a land
reminiscent of fairy tales, with sprawling forests, meadows, and
medieval cottages dotting the untainted landscape.
Prince Charles
also has a retreat property in the Transylvania town of Viscri, which is
considered to be the birthplace of Vlad the Impaler.
An analysis of the relationships between 43,000 transnational corporations has discovered that they are owned by a relatively small group of companies... consisting of mainly banks.
Revealed – the capitalist network that runs the world

AS PROTESTS against financial power sweep the world this week, science may have confirmed the protesters' worst fears. An analysis of the relationships between 43,000 transnational corporations has identified a relatively small group of companies, mainly banks, with disproportionate power over the global economy.
The study's assumptions have attracted some criticism, but complex systems analysts contacted by New Scientist
say it is a unique effort to untangle control in the global economy.
Pushing the analysis further, they say, could help to identify ways of
making global capitalism more stable.
The idea that a few bankers control a large chunk of the global economy might not seem like news to New York's Occupy Wall Street movement and protesters elsewhere (see photo).
But the study, by a trio of complex systems theorists at the Swiss
Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich, is the first to go beyond
ideology to empirically identify such a network of power. It combines
the mathematics long used to model natural systems with comprehensive
corporate data to map ownership among the world's transnational
corporations (TNCs).

"Reality is so complex, we must move away from dogma, whether it's conspiracy theories or free-market," says James Glattfelder. "Our analysis is reality-based."
Previous studies have found that a few
TNCs own large chunks of the world's economy, but they included only a
limited number of companies and omitted indirect ownerships, so could
not say how this affected the global economy - whether it made it more
or less stable, for instance.
The Zurich team can. From Orbis 2007,
a database listing 37 million companies and investors worldwide, they
pulled out all 43,060 TNCs and the share ownerships linking them. Then
they constructed a model of which companies controlled others through
shareholding networks, coupled with each company's operating revenues,
to map the structure of economic power.
The work, to be published in PloS One,
revealed a core of 1318 companies with interlocking ownerships (see
image). Each of the 1318 had ties to two or more other companies, and on
average they were connected to 20. What's more, although they
represented 20 per cent of global operating revenues, the 1318 appeared
to collectively own through their shares the majority of the world's
large blue chip and manufacturing firms - the "real" economy -
representing a further 60 per cent of global revenues.
When the team further untangled the
web of ownership, it found much of it tracked back to a "super-entity"
of 147 even more tightly knit companies - all of their ownership was
held by other members of the super-entity - that controlled 40 per cent
of the total wealth in the network. "In effect, less than 1 per cent of
the companies were able to control 40 per cent of the entire network,"
says Glattfelder. Most were financial institutions. The top 20 included
Barclays Bank, JPMorgan Chase & Co, and The Goldman Sachs Group.
John Driffill
of the University of London, a macroeconomics expert, says the value of
the analysis is not just to see if a small number of people controls
the global economy, but rather its insights into economic stability.
Concentration of power is not good or
bad in itself, says the Zurich team, but the core's tight
interconnections could be. As the world learned in 2008, such networks are unstable. "If one [company] suffers distress," says Glattfelder, "this propagates."
"It's disconcerting to see how
connected things really are," agrees George Sugihara of the Scripps
Institution of Oceanography in La Jolla, California, a complex systems
expert who has advised Deutsche Bank.
Yaneer Bar-Yam, head of the New
England Complex Systems Institute (NECSI), warns that the analysis
assumes ownership equates to control, which is not always true. Most
company shares are held by fund managers who may or may not control what
the companies they part-own actually do. The impact of this on the
system's behaviour, he says, requires more analysis.
Crucially, by identifying the
architecture of global economic power, the analysis could help make it
more stable. By finding the vulnerable aspects of the system, economists
can suggest measures to prevent future collapses spreading through the
entire economy. Glattfelder says we may need global anti-trust rules,
which now exist only at national level, to limit over-connection among
TNCs. Bar-Yam says the analysis suggests one possible solution: firms
should be taxed for excess interconnectivity to discourage this risk.
One thing won't chime with some of the
protesters' claims: the super-entity is unlikely to be the intentional
result of a conspiracy to rule the world. "Such structures are common in
nature," says Sugihara.
Newcomers to any network connect
preferentially to highly connected members. TNCs buy shares in each
other for business reasons, not for world domination. If connectedness
clusters, so does wealth, says Dan Braha of NECSI: in similar models,
money flows towards the most highly connected members. The Zurich study,
says Sugihara, "is strong evidence that simple rules governing TNCs
give rise spontaneously to highly connected groups". Or as Braha puts
it: "The Occupy Wall Street claim that 1 per cent of people have most of
the wealth reflects a logical phase of the self-organising economy."
So, the super-entity may not result
from conspiracy. The real question, says the Zurich team, is whether it
can exert concerted political power. Driffill feels 147 is too many to
sustain collusion. Braha suspects they will compete in the market but
act together on common interests. Resisting changes to the network
structure may be one such common interest.

Many of us are aware that we're all about to face an ELE (Extinction Level Event) sooner or later.
However, it must also be noted that although the event may be
classified as an 'ELE', there are chances that a
very very small minority from among us may actually be able to survive the event(s).
What do the survivors do next? How does a man with no one by his side survive
further?
Watch this exciting series titled "Apocalypse Man" which aired
on History Channel last year for techniques that may come in handy.
I recommend reading a few of my posts labelled 'Subliminals' (see http://way-cup.blogspot.com/search/label/subliminals) in order to be better equipped to understand this one.
Did you ever hear of the expression if it's to good to be true then it probably is .This is a good example here.
Wow that was nice of our Government to help people get HD TV boxes with
the vouchers they gave out..They would lose sleep at night if your TV
picture wasn't crystal clear.They care so much ,it's very important to
them.
How else could they program your mind with whatever they want.Maybe
they could play messages like .It's ok for the bankers to rape and
destroy america .Bailing out banks is a good thing.Or ,You accept GMO
food as real food.The fluoride that's put in tap water tastes delicious,
drink plenty of it.God only knows what they are playing .Maybe even,
it's time for a new world order.Here is the scary technology you can bet
they are using on us right now.
UHF Silent Subliminals
The Amazing Patented Ultra-High Frequency (UHF) “Silent” Subliminal® Affirmations process was created by aerospace engineer O.M. Lowery (US Patent #5,1159.703) is one of the most exciting advances in personal improvement in years!
Just imagine powerful subliminal messages recorded at high
frequencies that are not masked by music or any other sound but are
essentially inaudible to your conscious mind! Play them anywhere,
anytime while driving, eating, watching TV, even while you sleep.
Now you can experience the latest achievement in subliminal technology!
A Revolutionary Approach to Subliminal Technology
We we’re so impressed by this powerful, new way to record subliminal
messages, we contacted its creator, aerospace engineer O.M. Lowery, to
find out how and why his encoding method is such an important step into
21st century brain/mind technology.
Lowery
explained that he designed his patented process to overcome the
deficiencies found in many “masked” subliminals which completely bury
all voice affirmations. (The subliminals developed by WBLI are recorded
at higher decibel levels which do not completely mask our messages).
Although inaudible to the conscious mind, the Silent
Subliminal signals are powerfully perceived by the listener’s
unconscious mind.
The Silent Subliminal process records voice
affirmations on a powerful, inaudible, ultra high audio frequency
carrier (14.8 khz) in a format which is easily picked up and decoded by
the human ear. The encoded voice affirmations actually vibrate the
tympanic membrane (diaphragm) of the ear at the strongest possible, yet
totally safe, level.(more here)
Here is a good story about all of this from the PPJGazette :
Silent Sound Spread Spectrum (SSSS) & the All-Digital TV Broadcast Signal: Connection?
Ever since first hearing of it last spring, I’ve had a deepening sense
of foreboding – an unnamed dread of the upcoming shift to an all-digital television broadcast signal, scheduled to occur in February 2009. Now, I believe, that nameless dread may have a name, after all.
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.
Don't tell me what you believe. Show me what you do, then I'll know what you believe.
What do you respond to? And how do you respond? When "moved" by
something do you really move? Does your life change so as to respond to
what you were so "moved" about? Are you respons-able?....able to
respond?
What is your body, mind and spirit doing most of the time? Compare what
you say you believe to how you live. Then make the two match up.
Protest, spread truth, turn off the TV, get out of the banks, boycott
the corporate beasts, detach from stuff and don't participate in the lie
any longer.
But spread the word...and act accordingly. You'll know.
Analysis Paralysis Is Just Another Excuse
That's one thing that holds people back from doing what they know they
should do. It's really a stalling technique until the conviction of your
consciousness wears off and you can go back to your routine.
"After all, what would happen to ME if I tried to do something
about the sick state the world is in? I don't want to get in trouble,
never mind risk my reputation or losing my friends and even alienating
my own family! Heck, I might get arrested or put on some watch list! And
my job! Oh my God, if they found out I went activist and attended or
supported one of these Occupations or some other cause and started
talking openly about some of these controversial things? I could lose my
JOB!"
And die in shame and regret. Wait till your grandkids ask,"What were you doing during the takeover of the world?"
Open Up and Let It Out!
I don't care how small it is, DO SOMETHING for the Truth! Activate the
voice of conscience by starting out one step at a time. Write friends,
start a blog, occupy something, attend meetings and events, talk to
strangers when you're out. Follow the trail set before you. If and when
you do choose to occupy something and meet a few like-minded
inspirational people with real conviction, it's so encouraging and heart
warming it'll change your life forever!
Consciousness is in everyone, and like a water faucet, it don't come unless you open it up! And once you do, go with the flow!
There's a massive awakening that's been taking place for many years,
and it's now building so exponentially it's burst into this wonderful
occupation revolution.
It's a manifestation..not just of frustration, but awareness!
And the PTBs are falling all over each other trying to co-opt, mislabel
and steer this uprising or use it for some political purpose. Such
fools. Being UNconscious they'll never get it. So don't fear them. But
DO keep letting the light in which is exposing the HELL out of them! And
if you can't get out there or raise your voice to your satisfaction,
support those that do help the awakening and a cause you embrace!
There's all kinds of ways everyone can participate! Whatever you do,
don't just be a bystander...get in the current however you can...each
awakened life has a HUGE impact!
Our very lives are a testament to the Truth...let it shine!
We are the soldiers of the awakening
Our message is light and sound
We have no master, we follow no leader
Yet we are all at the head of our cause
Our mission is ascension from misery
Our promise is enlightenment
Our past is timeless, our future is present
We are keepers of evernow
We demand nothing, for we need nothing
We abhor violence, detest ignorance,
Advise radiance, enable convergence,
We think without brains, speak without tongues,
Move without bodies, and love without hearts
We are spirit without boundary
Light without fear
Sight without perception
Truth beyond doubt
We are pitch, volume, sparkle & brilliance,
Shining melody, harmonious vision
Attainment, atonement, attunement, our testaments
Unity in diversity
The reflecting pool of eternity
Infinite fraternity
Subliminal perception is a deliberate process created by communication
technicians, whereby you receive and respond to information and
instructions without being aware of it. Messages in the form of printed
words, pictures or voices presented either very rapidly or very
obscurely bypass your conscious awareness. Anything consciously
perceived can be evaluated, criticized, discussed, argued, and possibly
rejected. Anything programmed subliminally to your subconsciousness
meets no resistance. This subliminal information is stored in your brain
and capable of influencing your judgment, behavior and attitudes.
The use of subliminal techniques in print communication media has been
going on in the United States at least since the World War I period.

India backs Palestinian bid for UN membership
Indo-Asian News Service Saturday, 01 October 2011
United Nations: India came out in all out support for a
Palestinian bid for membership of the United Nations as a Security
Council committee met behind closed doors to begin considering its
application.
Underscoring New Delhi's support of the Palestinians'
bid, India's permanent representative Hardeep Singh Puri on Friday
recalled that his country was the first non-Arab state to grant
recognition of a Palestinian state when it did so in 1988.
Puri
said the committee on the admission of new states "should report to the
Security Council that the Palestinian application for membership be
recommended to the General Assembly."
The Palestinians' membership
application "is not incompatible with, nor does it exclude, direct
negotiations between the parties to resolve the final status issues," he
said.
Addressing the UN General Assembly on September 24, prime
minister Manmohan Singh had said, "India is steadfast in its support for
the Palestinian people's struggle for a sovereign, independent, viable
and united state of Palestine with East Jerusalem as its capital, living
within secure and recognized borders side by side and at peace with
Israel."
"We look forward to welcoming Palestine as an equal member of the United Nations," he said.
The
Security Council committee meeting came exactly one week after
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas made a direct plea at the UN for
membership sidestepping peace negotiating efforts that have foundered
for nearly two decades.
In order for a state to become a UN
member, its application must be recommended by the Security Council and
then approved by the General Assembly by a two-thirds vote of its 193
members.
The panel agreed to meet again next week. But analysts
say the statehood bid is bound to fail, because the United States has
threatened to use its veto power on the Security Council to block it.
