Sherry Golightly, Is there speciation going on?

Thank you for this post Sherry Golightly. Now, since two-leggeds do not have, nor  have had a government that works for the greater good of All Life, from a Bear's perspective, there may be some speciation going with the two-leggeds. 




"I don't need a government to give me morals. My parents did that. I don't need a government to dictate my faith, my conscience does that. What I need is a government that keeps the roads that my loved ones travel safe. I need a government that keeps the water my loved ones drink, the air my loved ones breath and the food my loved ones eat, safe. I need a government that ensures that the resources of the only planet in the known universe that is capable of supporting life are protected and conserved for future generations. I need a government that protects my loved ones from wanton predation by those who would steal the homes and property that we've worked for and invested in and our livelihoods from us. I need a government that is blind like Lady Justice; one that ensures that the rule of law is applied with fairness and equity between all people. I need a government that ensures that it's citizens have equality of opportunity, because they are smart enough to understand the concept of the chain being only as strong as its weakest link and that we all do better when we all do well. I need a government that will ensure that the nation that I live in is not some substandard, third world, oligarchical, theocratic, dictatorial, totalitarian, plutocratic, thug ruled state in which only those with wealth or might of arms have access to basic human rights and necessities. I need a government that ensures the nation in which I and my family live is not overrun with the desperation of poverty, disease and crime.

If, in anyone's mind those needs make me wrong, evil, a liberal, a Democrat, a socialist or a communist, I'm perfectly okay with that. In my mind, and those of most sentient, logical beings, they make me a normal human who wants the absolute best for those I care about. If you don't want these things for your loved ones, what does that say about you?"  Sherry Golightly

What ya gonna do? Wake Up time.

From a Bear's perspective I find it interesting. I got banned over the word "respect" when I used it in the sense of language being the foundation of every culture, and should the two-leggeds choose to re-learn a culture of Peace, then the language of Peace is one of Beauty. I used the word in the context that the power of language can be used to incite violence at the worst, or bring awareness. I used it in the context that when you speak it is an act of creation, and that when misusing this power, since there is the Law of Cause and Effect, there is a responsibility that comes with it. I also used it in the context of "trolls" who are "protected" and in positions of "power" who bully and harass because someone is speaking truth, and they are threatened by it.

So this evening the word "sheeple" was used, in reference to the two leggeds that continue to hold the fabric - of the failed and lethal western civilization's monetary, political, military, environmental culture and worldview together - by continued participation in it without - at the very least-, making efforts to disengage with it. "Sheeple" was also used in reference to people who continue to rely on mainstream TV and news sources, many of which are considered "liberal" at best, and right wing at worst, to inform themselves. And it was brought to our attention, that we would "turn people off" if we used that word, and they would not listen to us, it was "disrespectful". I ask if we are to candy coat the current CRISIS of destructive behavior toward our Mother Earth and All life. I ask if we are to call the dog poo on the side of the road by any other name, than what it is? I ask if we are to tell someone, "oh yeah you're really intelligent" when they are clearly asleep. Is it respecting All Life, the Mother Earth, the water, the air, all living beings, to lie about the destruction that is taking place right in front of your eyes, and there are those that still can not see? Is it really respecting someone to lie to them? I have always found that my best friends and family are ones who will tell me the truth, as painful as it may be for me to hear. I also know that when the word "sheeple" was used it was not with the intent to disrespect because too many people were laughing...and NO ONE was bullying anyone...they were talking, about issues at hand and waking up the masses. And by the way, I have been bullied and harassed.

And every First Nation's camp I have ever been too is full to the brim with jokes and laughter...laughter helps us get through the pain and grief and sorrows...and it is said that, you know when you are loved, when you are teased and joked with...it's an ego thing too, kinda like get over your self importance already, get off of your pity pot, and stand up, take responsibility for your life, relationships and inter-relationship with All Life...we are all in this crazy world together, and there are some bigger issues we need to be focusing our prayers and actions on. 

There are 350 million people in the USA alone. 8.1 % are unemployed, that is 28, 350, 000 people, and you want to tell me that they don;t know what to do with themselves? Well as a Bear I can give you all sorts of jobs, and so can the First Nations and the Occupy movement. Food lines? Start planting food. Join Food not Bombs. Homeless? Start a homeless collective...there are millions of houses and buildings that are second, third and fourth homes standing vacant that are owned by the 1%. Need alternative energy, start a collective, learn how to build it and start transitioning homes. In fact read this: http://www.lewrockwell.com/spl/50-things-to-do-now.html Start bartering your skills. Don't have any, seek out an Elder. And most importantly everybody, and I mean everybody needs to stop paying their "debts", and it has to be an "all together now" event for more than a day, it needs to be for months. Do a Montreal and stop paying student debt. Then replace all the government agencies with organizations who actually ARE educated to protect our food, our health care, our earth. And then learn what your birthrights are.

A culture, a village, a community, a nation is as strong as its "weakest" link. Yet when you think in different terms and gather all the perceived "weak"... because that is what the 1% want you to believe...that you are powerless over your own destiny, your own choices, your own Way of Life, well you have a lot of people all together. Question your thinking, question what you have been taught about the American Dream....question what I say, question everything. Learn how to educate yourself, because we would not be in this predicament if the educational system in the USA didn't become the Ivory Tower of curriculum propaganda supplied by the elite. Learn your history. Learn what Natural Law is. It is Wake up Time.

Chief Arvol Looking Horse: Unite for energy shift for healing June 21, 2012

Posted at Censored News
http://bsnorrell.blogspot.com/2012/05/chief-arvol-looking-horse-unite-for.html

Once again I am sending my voice to all Nations upon Mother Earth, those who can hear my sincerity with their hearts – - unite together at our Sacred Sites creating an energy shift of a great healing on this June 21st. We need to see and listen to the wamakas'ka (the animals) who are more than ever now showing their sacred color of white, there are so many. This color represents the direction of when physical life now goes into the spirit journey. They are trying to warn us to pay attention to our responsibilities as a Global Nation. In order to protect the remaining sacredness that is trying to survive upon Mother Earth, which includes even our own children, we now have no choice but to unify and make positive decisions together.
To honor the birthplace of World Peace and Prayer Day/Honoring Sacred Sites where it all began in 1996, we will gather at Gray Horn Butte, aka Devils Tower on June 16th. Peace Riders who made the '96 journey from Canada to Gray Horn on horse back, will join us and offer prayers as well and plant a Peace Pole reading May Peace Prevail on Earth in 4 different languages. We will do the same offering on June 17th at Medicine Wheel. On June 18th we will gather at the Grand Tetons to begin one of the many events of WPPD throughout the world. The Grand Tetons will be the beginning of a four day event to bring attention for the need to protect the last of the true wild Buffalo (bison) that exist in Yellow Stone National Park, they are in constant danger of being massacred when caught off park property.
On June 21st I will pray with thousands of People at the United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development or Rio+20 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
As part of the various gatherings and celebrations that will be held as part of the Sacred Earth Gathering in Aldeia Nova Terra during the month of June parallel to the conference, there will be a very special ceremony to celebrate World Peace and Prayer Day/Honoring Sacred Sites along with various representatives of the Brazilian indigenous tribes and spiritual leaders from different nations. The intent is to honor this day not only in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil but to also invite the participation of other WPPD activities worldwide to join though simultaneous acts of prayer and song so as to be united spiritually on this June 21st to celebrate the 2012 World Peace and Prayer Day/Honoring Sacred Sites.

No Mother Earth, Fuku, and Foods that support you

From a Bear's perspective, I wonder what the human's governments are doing. ... Supporting people protesting in the streets, is vital, but is it the only "real important" issue?. While I agree that it would be very good to have more people out there, I ask where is the "there"....and I give kudos for the Nato Actions. Yet as far as I can tell there are still no actions planned to confront and pressure a limp US government to stop the War on Mother Earth's ecosystem. Oh I forgot the military are trained with guns and depleted uranium bombs, but not clean-up...

In Albuquerque we have a "decades-old" fuel spill. LANL has stored radioactive waste in big cans for decades. Uranium Mines on Tribal lands are still not cleaned up, after decades. There are new and old oil spills that are still not cleaned up all over north and south Turtle Island. The Gulf of Mexico is is now a mix of oil and chemical sludge. There is also the plethora of other issues as equally toxic, for example GMO's, the Chemical and Pharmaceutical Industries, and the resistance to provide fuel efficient autos.....And lest we not forget, we now have Fukushima, of which we have virtually complete media black out,....with the exception of some great Anonymous videos.
 
So what else has been more important to do than cleaning all the environmental damage up? Drones? the CCMR? The Tar Sands? the XL Pipeline?...and  what is taking so long to help deal with the Fukushima melt down? The Elections?....ok so I am being a bit prickly here....The reality is this: no Mother Earth, no water, no air....no life for the human species, almost all other species, and no protests as well. While we are being warned by experts that conditions are critical, there is little media attention and little human dialogue. So, is it time as IEN, 350.org and so many other organizations on this planet are calling for: to stand up for the Rights of Mother Earth?

FUKUSHIMA ALERT

 "Calling it a global catastrophe is no exaggeration.
If political leaders understand the situation and the potential catastrophe, I find it difficult to understand why they remain silent." says "Akio Matsumura who is a renowned diplomat who has dedicated his life to building bridges between government, business, and spiritual leaders in the cause of world peace." http://akiomatsumura.com/akio 



The highly radioactive spent fuel assemblies at the Fukushima-Daiichi power plants present a clear threat to the people of Japan and the world. Reactor 4 and the nearby common spent fuel pool contain over 11,000 highly radioactive spent fuel assemblies, many of which are exposed to the open air. The cesium-137, the radioactive component contained in these assemblies, present at the site is 85 times larger than the amount released during the Chernobyl accident. Another magnitude 7.0 earthquake would jar them from their pool or stop the cooling water, which would lead to a nuclear fire and meltdown. The nuclear disaster that would result is beyond anything science has ever seen.  Calling it a global catastrophe is no exaggeration.
If political leaders understand the situation and the potential catastrophe, I find it difficult to understand why they remain silent.
The following leaves little to question:
  1. Many scientists believe that it will be impossible to remove the 1,535 fuel assemblies in the pool of Reactor 4 within two or three years.
  2. Japanese scientists give a greater than 90 percent  probability that an earthquake of at least 7.0 magnitude will occur in the next three years in the close vicinity of Fukushia-Daiichi.
  3. The crippled building of Reactor 4 will not stand through another strong earthquake.
  4. Japan and the TEPCO do not have adequate nuclear technology and experience to handle a disaster of such proportions alone.
Senator Ron Wyden of Oregon wrote a letter to Japan’s Ambassador to the United States, Mr. Ichiro Fujisaki, on April 16, 2012, discussing his fact-finding trip to the Fukushima Daiichi site.
Senator Wyden, senior member of the United States Committee on Energy and Natural Resources, mentioned that “the scope of damage to the plants and to the surrounding area was far beyond what [he] expected and the scope of the challenge to the utility owner, the government of Japan, and to the people of the region are daunting.”  He also mentioned that “TEPCO’s December 21, 2011 remediation roadmap proposes to take up to ten years to complete spent fuel removal from all of the pools on the site.  Given the compromised nature of these structures due to the events of March 11, their schedule carries extraordinary and continuing risk if further severe seismic events were to occur.”
Many of us echo Senator Wyden’s concerns.
Has the government of Japan and other world leaders considered the facts above that would lead to a global catastrophe, and do they have a clear strategy to prevent this worst case scenario?  Are there any means to shorten the period for the completion of removal spent fuel from all of the pools, in particular of Reactor 4, within two years or so? Are we able to trust such extraordinary tasks to TEPCO and the private sector?
I believe that the government of Japan should lead the way and embrace all means at its disposal in order to prevent a disaster that would affect our dozens of generations of our descendants.  In this context, I cannot help but consider the role of the military in addition to the international technical support team. They possess the technological and logistical capacity that a company such as TEPCO does not.
Deploying the Japanese self defense force (military) inside the country’s borders would be an incredibly controversial political decision, but the political fallout for the government from this step would pale in comparison to having such an immense global catastrophe occur on its watch.
For this reason, I flew to Japan from New York in April to convey my concerns to Japanese political leaders. Ambassador Mitsuhei Murata and I  met with Mr. Fujimura, Chief Cabinet Secretary, who assured us he would convey our message to Prime Minister Noda before his departure for Washington to meet with President Obama on April 30. Both leaders might have discussed the Fukushima nuclear accident issue at their private meeting, but the idea for an independent assessment team and international help for the disaster were not mentioned publicly.  I am old enough to understand the politics of the matter, but I cannot accept them. It will be an irreversible mistake that affects our population for thousands of years if they do not take action now.
If this catastrophe occurred, regardless of policy and politics, all 440 nuclear power plants throughout the world would be forced to shut down, yet our descendants no matter what will have to carry the risk of radioactive materials in the nuclear waste repository for 100,000 to 200,000 years.
This is a long amount of time to conceive of, so let me put it in context. It is said that our anscestors might have made their journey to the rest of the world from South Africa about 100,000 years ago, and crafted our first tools of the Stone Age about 20,000 years ago. We will need the same amount of time that our human species has existed for in order to safely deposit radioactive material! How come do we envision the poison to be transferred on to our descendants for so long and how will we find a way to indicate the location of the radioactive repository? Are we sure that the hundred radioactive repositories throughout the world be protected from severe seismic events for this incredible period of the time?
If this global catastrophe occurs, the best we can hope is that the memory of our disaster might be passed on to our future generations in the hope that they might invent the new technology to prevent them from another such catastrophe.

Solar Eclipse: Activation








I have also posted about  this once in every 26,000 year time on earlier blogs. If now is the time you think that it is time for humanity to put on a different movie, then through out this year there will be many opportunities for you to heighten, hone and evolve your personal and collective awareness and abilities for the greater good of all life. If you think that you are a "co-creator" of reality, then the time is now to hold the highest resonance of that which you know as peace, love, good health and harmony. Now is the time to nourish and maintain your personal practices of awareness and transcendence, now is the time to have clarity of Mind, and adept intuition. Whatever you sacred ceremony in life is, remember to compost that which no longer serves the greater good of all life, nourish and plant and protect the seeds of creation's beauty and live fully and happily. ~ Bear

Ok Folks, this is brought to you by https://www.facebook.com/dream.speaker.heart


Lightworkers around the entire world are waiting with bated breath for a star-studded, heavy-weight astronomical event: May 20 (PDT)/ May 21 (IST) when a solar eclipse occurs from 4:24 - 6:42 pm (PDT), peaking at 4:47 p.m. (PDT). 

At that moment our Earth, Moon, and Sun line up with the great central Sun, Alcyone, in the Pleiadian Star System. It takes our Sun 25,920 years to circle around this system. This marks the end of one cycle of existence and the beginning of a new one.

The Pleiadian system is where the Photon Belt is located. Alcyone (also called the Central Sun) is in the Photon Belt all the time. Our local galaxy has just moved into this belt. This Photon Belt has been outside our solar system for a long time and now it is inside our system, and intensely impacting Earth.

Photon Light vibrates at a very high frequency. It has been stimulating our Sun and effecting intense solar flares, solar storms and mass coronal ejections. On earth, this translates into many natural changes. The photon energy from the Sun also affects our bodies, altering our DNA, bumping us into a higher frequency and activating our Light Bodies.

The May 20 (PDT) solar eclipse signifies a 'reboot', not just for our entire solar system, but the Multiverse. Everything in our own galaxy will be reset, and we will begin an entirely new 25,920 year cycle.

This eclipse will intercept important energetic lines (the serpent and dragon lines) on Earth at two locations. One is Mt Shasta and the other is Mt Fuji. Those two locations will be charged up with very potent energy. Be emotionally prepared for major changes after this eclipse. Out of chaos, the new world arrives.

This will jolt you into a new awareness of your responsibility as a Spiritual Being engaged in a Human experience. You will be asked to recommit to your growth and development and to let go of anything that may be holding you back from building a new, sustainable future for all of life.

Willing to Die to protect Mother Earth

This article by Jamie Smith of tbnewswatch.com is telling of how critical things are becoming at this time of corporate greed over the health of our environment. At some point, it will be time for "occupyers" to listen to First Nations as well, instead of censoring them, ignoring them, and thinking that they are not "real" in the resistance, just because a few ignorant ones think that First Nation's Way of Life, and the "respects" to all Life and their inter-connectedness with Life is some sort of "religion". Occupy while necessary to help diminish the power and corruption that has been and still is devastating life, what do they really know in how to restore, or live in right relationship? Most occupiers are just now beginning to get to know their neighbors, to contemplate how community or village would be to live in, to plant or gather food...this is all a good start, yet there is a relationship with all life that has been maintained for thousands of years despite colonization, that the mainstream has forgotten.....http://www.tbnewswatch.com/news/209677/'I'm-willing-to-die

Solar Eclipse and Mayan Ceremony at New Buffalo

Today the Solar Eclipse will be celebrated with creating a labyrinth from 2-5PM, Potluck from 5-6PM and a "new" Mayan Ceremony, facilitated by Day Keeper Ed Griego. All of this will be hosted at the historic New Buffalo in Arroyo Hondo. New Buffalo"s history from the 1960's http://newbuffalocenter.com/History.html is notable because re-learning to live in harmony with earth and sky has been on-going despite the desire for "progress" from the US and other "western civilizations". So while we have our front line warriors taking on Nato, the G8, going to the UK to battle the Tar Sands and the Oil Boys, expect that there may be some technological jamming of the airwaves for live coverage. While technology might be able to jam computer reception in our rural regions, this does not mean we as a species can not raise the sentient vibration for the greater good of all life.

Using Obama's Executive Ordered Nightmare? : Nuke News from Jay Coglin of Nuke Watch

I am going to post Jay's email here for you. I can not impress on all of you that again we are seeing Obama's Ex. Order of March 16th in action here. In earlier posts: Stop Heinrich's Nuclear Moves and Fracking Cheney and Haliburton, I said, and I will repeat, this ordered nightmare means that if the US government decided to move all contracts, "resources" and our WATER, under the jurisdiction of the DoD, this removes public or tribal say, in my opinion, after reading the Order. Now most speculate that in order for this to take full effect without a false flag event, that the legislators will try to do it, and they are attempting to do just that. Heinrich wants to move the CCMR contracts to the DoD, but wants to get re-elected, so he is soft peddling at the moment. Shelly in Navajo Country is also soft peddling the Little Colorado Water Theft bill SB 2109. If the water thieves don't get their way? If Cheny does not get his way?
Watch out for the House Armed Services Committee's agenda pushing the levers of the Executive Order.


Nuclear Watch New Mexico has a new 5-page analysis of the relevant CMRR-Nuclear Facility sections in the House Armed Services Committee’s FY 2013 National Defense Authorization Act.

Please see the summary below. The whole report is available at
http://www.nuclearwatch.org/facts/nwd/NW-analysis-HASC-FY13-NDAA-CMRR.pdf 

Among other things HASC would move the cost of design and construction of the CMRR-Nuclear Facility and the Uranium Processing Facility to the Pentagon. The quote from self-described fiscal conservative and Tea Party caucus member 
Rep. John Culberson (R.-TX),  Chairman of the House Military Construction and Veterans Affairs Appropriations Subcommittee, is useful in arguing against that move. 

Jay

HASC Prioritizes the Unneeded CMRR-Nuclear Facility
Over Life Extension Programs and Veteran Benefits

Summary: The Obama Administration has decided to defer the CMRR-Nuclear Facility at the Los Alamos Lab for at least five years, which the House and Senate Energy and Water Development Appropriations Subcommittees have agreed to. But the House Armed Services Committee (HASC) has authorized funding for it, which can possibly undermine what the Pentagon most wants and is paying for, which is the refurbishment of existing nuclear weapons through Life Extension Programs. HASC also seeks to make an end run around the Energy and Water Subcommittees by transferring design and construction of the CMRR-NF to the Defense Department in FY 2014, which could compete with other needed military construction and threaten veteran benefits. In addition, HASC seeks to keep the CMRR-Nuclear Facility alive in the short term by authorizing the use in FY 2013 of $160 million in prior years funding, when it is not clear that any remaining prior years funding even exists. The Senate Armed Services Committee and the Energy and Water Subcommittees of both chambers should oppose these proposals and continue to provide no funding for the CMRR-Nuclear Facility.

Lifestyle Changes and a Carbon Free World...Muses about Helen Caldicott"s latest words

I have been saying for some time now, that a lot could be changed just by changing your lifestyle. Helen Caldicott seems to agree with this.
"There isn't one message, there are three. One is that we are in dire danger from global warming and that unless we pull our socks up and stop burning coal and stop driving our SUV's around doing five miles to the gallon and stop fracking and natural gas, we're doomed." ~Helen Caldicott


There is only so much that any one person can do, however collectively, if everyone just stopped shopping, not for a day, try it for a month, 6 months. Instead of buying that new car every year, drive it until it dies, or at least until it has 200+K on it. Why? Because while India and China are coming out with cars that can get up to 100mpg, our auto manufacturers are still giving us the same old chit. So boycott the auto industry.


A little overweight? Well pull up the lawn, and stop watering grass! Plant some fruit trees, and herbs and veggies. And then eat the veggies. That should shed more than 10-20 pounds. In addition to this Helen tell it like it is, a lot more "nicely" than I am though. She says that the media is NOT informing the public. And as far as I am concerned the general public depends on the media to spoon feed them information. So if the public does not get information, they stay ignorant, because they do not seek to educate themselves...about much of anything. She said that America is the most militarized country in the world. This is true folks. And you ask why there is not enough $ for education, healthcare or to transition off of fossil fuels? Think! If the military fuels all its jets, tanks and navy tankers with gasoline, think about it! Why would this government want to change the tune?


In closing Helen has written "Carbon-Free and Nuclear-Free:A Roadmap for U.S. Energy Policy

The Word "Respect"

Since all of this "occupy" media world, seems to think that this BearSense Woman, is wrong about "respect". I decided to find a few vids for you, about this word. See, seems you think that having "respect" means you have no healthy boundaries, and you can do anything and say anything, and ban people because you don't like that they tell you, you are behaving in a way that does not bring people together....This interpretation of "respect" with no healthy boundaries, is the wachichu way, with no responsibility for anything. Maybe the vids help you out.

URGENT ACTION ALERT: Stop Heinrich's Nuclear moves



I gave you warning about what Obama's Executive Order of March 16th, 2012 would mean. We are now seeing the first move by a US government Representative to use it to usurp any say the public, or First Nations have in stopping contracts that are dangerous to our Mother Earth and All Life. 
Please read this order because it gives the DoD the power to take over contracts, the water, food, and any "resource" they want...please wake up. The following has come in from the Anti Nuclear Organizations of New Mexico. Please share this far and wide.

"Rep. Martin Heinrich just voted to support an amendment to move the construction of the CMRR to the Department of Defense, despite the fact that the Dept of Energy had said it can meet its nuclear weapons mission with the delay of the CMRR project for five years.

Heinrich thinks he can get away with these votes and we as his potential constituents need to let him know we are watching him and will not support his campaign.

Please call his office now and tell them you will not support Heinrich as he campaigns for US Senate."

Stand up against your tax dollars being used to promote weapons production agenda

Once again Marilyn Hoff calls it like it is here in the "Land of Enchantment, Home of the Atomic Bomb" :
"$200,000 have been so far wrested from NM towns and counties to lobby for LANL. These compliant pay-offs lend legitimacy to an organization whose mission--creating the means to destroy life on earth--is simply evil.  Contributing to this lobbying scam influences LANL policy only by rubber-stamping it. "

Have no doubt that LANL with it's second wealthiest income in the US, want to re-instate the 6, yes Six Billion dollar construction of a new nuclear pit production plant. They are using our tax dollars to lobby our crooked government to achieve their goals under the name "Regional Coalition of LANL Communities". While no public notice of their meeting has been forthwith from the "coalition", once again our local Code Pink Women have provided us with the date, time and location for us to make our thoughts known.
Please attend:
Taos County will host the Regional Coalition, May 10, 9-11 am, at the County Chambers, 105 Albright, from 9-11 am.  By law these meetings are open to the public.

The Town of Taos recently joined the Regional Coalition of LANL Communities, portrayed as a benign organization offering neighboring towns and counties input into Los Alamos National Laboratory policies.  In truth, the coalition was formed to employ a lobbying firm, paid for by coalition members, to milk the federal government for funding for LANL. Coalition members, the governing bodies of cities, towns, and counties downstream and downwind of LANL, are bilked for annual payments proportionate to how many Lab employees live within their jurisdictions.

Los Alamos County, the coalition’s instigator, boasts the second-richest per capita income in the US.  The local governments asked to pony up for this confidence game preside over rampant poverty.  Can’t Los Alamos afford to pay its own lobbyists? 

The coalition claims to promote lab clean-up and green opportunities. But any appropriations won by its lobbyistgo to LANL, which touts clean-up and diversification to get more money,  while it almost exclusively makes more and mightier nuclear weapons. LANL has cleaned up very little of its radioactive mess, despite agreeing to a legal Consent Order to do so.  It devoted 0.64% of its 2011 budget to green energy development and 7.9% to clean-up.  LANL’s current lobbying push in Congress aims to reinstate funding for the $6 billion CMMR-NF plutonium processing facility (for making nuclear weapons).  CMRR-NF was recently postponed 5 years due to budget constraints and lack of need for more and more nuclear weapons that must never be used.

Despite its touted PR largesse, LANL’s presence in our region is not benign. It is a dangerous, highly polluting, irresponsible, for-profit, scofflaw institution that undermines the health of everyone living downwind and downstream. It perches beside the Rio Grande rift, among earthquake faults, on the unstable slopes of the Jemez Mountains, the remnants of a huge dormant volcano under which hot magma still lurks.  Earthquakes have recently shaken that region.  Last summer the enormous Las Conchas fire roared right up to the lab boundaries.  The several metric tons of flammable plutonium housed at LANL, if scattered by fire to the winds, could render northern New Mexico uninhabitable for untold millenia.

Our tax dollars now promote this organization, thanks to our elected representatives, whose contribution portrays Taos as supportive of LANL’s reckless activities.  Town of Taos’s yearly membership fee may be based on the 153 LANL employees residing in Taos County, among them the son of County Commissioner Andrew Chavez.  In 2010 Commissioner Chavez failed to recuse himself due to his familial vested interest, but instead avidly promoted and voted for the County to pony up for the LANL lobbyists.  (He is up for re-election.)  Taos County pays $3750 annually to the coalition.  What will the Town of Taos pay?  Our resident Lab employees, with wages averaging nearly $90,000/year, constitute 0.5% of the County population. 

Reversing a previous unanimous Town decision to resist this extortion, our new Town Council caved like the County. Contrast their obeisance to our local 0.5% with their unanimous vote to terminate the Community Free Box that benefitted thousands of much needier locals.  2000 signatories begged the Council to preserve the Free Box, more than voted in the last pathetic Town election. While many Taosenos struggle to feed and clothe their children, some of our local taxes now subsidize the mega-rich purveyors of profitable death and destruction.

$200,000 have been so far wrested from NM towns and counties to lobby for LANL. These compliant pay-offs lend legitimacy to an organization whose mission--creating the means to destroy life on earth--is simply evil.  Contributing to this lobbying scam influences LANL policy only by rubber-stamping it. 

In the Joint Powers Agreement signed by coalition dupes, amendment 10C allows individual members to withdraw from the coalition, although the coalition gets to continue using the withdrawing party’s legitimizing name.  Ask your County Commissioners, Town Councilors, and Mayor to withdraw from this Joint Powers Agreement, joined without consulting the public.  Remind them their most pressing public consultation will be their next elections.


Taos County will host the Regional Coalition today, May 10, 9-11 am, at the County Chambers, 105 Albright, from 9-11 am.  By law these meetings are open to the public.






ACTION ALERT: Stop Nuclear Bomb Plants





We all are effected by the Nuclear Industrial Military Complex, be it the death and dying from Uranium Mining, Nuclear Energy fall out, Plutonium Pit Production, weapons used by the military, or the toxic waste that lays in ever increasing amounts in containers around the country. Please call and make you voices heard to stop the insanity today! Thank you.
The following post from kheald@nuclearweaponsfree.org

ACTION ALERT
Stop New Nuclear Bomb Plants

Some members of Congress are currently pushing to build a huge plutonium facility for nuclear weapons at the Los Alamos National Laboratory, even though President Obama proposed postponing its construction for at least five years.
 
There is no need for the building. Existing facilities can maintain U.S. nuclear weapons without it. But on May 9, the House Armed Services Committee may vote to fund construction for next year.

Please call your representative today and ask her or him to oppose funding for this unnecessary nuclear weapons facility. You can also add your own thoughts about funding nuclear weapons. But please call before Wednesday May 9!

Call your representative through the capitol switchboard at (202) 224-3121. If you don't know who your representative is click here: www.house.gov/representatives/find/

Here is a suggested message:

"My name is ____ and I live in _____. I am calling to ask Rep. ____ to vote against any attempt to fund the new nuclear bomb plant in New Mexico."


Please call your representative today and keep their phones ringing off the hook.

We can’t let them slip this wasteful funding under the radar. Please help us stop this unnecessary bomb plant from being built.

Censoring Voice

I wrote the other day but not this specifically, about bullying, harassment, stalking, and channel owners and mods who become trolls within the twitter, channel chat rooms, and other media platforms (of which I should not say the names of) that have been set up by skilled technicians so that conversations can take place. Blogs, forums and group discussions are also available, aaannd personal pages that supposedly you can say as you deem fit?...still not sure about that. I also mentioned that the trolling behaviors may be a reason for people not coming back, or leaving.

However I pointed to the fact, that those voices that are silenced, quieter, and may need more stillness to be heard, are the ones that should be protected at all cost. For it is often these voices that have been silenced and censored for generations from mainstream media, they also may be those that are the most vulnerable. They also may have information that could be vital to your survival as a species. So if "occupy" does the same, that the government and corporate media does: censorship, discrediting, harassment... how are they any different?

Please follow me here, as the blog that I posted which was hastily taken down, and I was reprimanded for, and was told that I had offended the platform's creators and creatresses, was connected to my personal observation that the ultimate attempt to silence the Divine Feminine is by death, be it via the sacrifice of Lightning Medicine Cloud. Yet even death, would not be able to silence or squelch, her voice, her teachings, her love, because the patriarch is over. With the end of the patriarch, there will be the necessity to hear the messages and instructions by the Elders, about the personal work that will need to be done individually and collectively, should we choose not to re-create from whence we came. I surely would not like to see the murder of tens of thousands of women for practicing their Ways or speaking their truth, again.

When it came to my request to have a dialogue, the individual conveniently went to make some tea, and then moved to another room, and refused to talk to me further. So, if you don't know who the While Buffalo Calf is, then you would not be able to understand the half of what I have said....so, if you put your bullying, harassment, censorship away...I think that the patriarchal "power" that chose to censor me, might re-think their actions, because censoring me won't make her go away....she is everywhere.

Now that the original has been deleted by the "power" that be...I have this to make record before, I may have attempts to be silenced again. However, I will be leaving again those platforms, in fact you can take my page down, what can I do about the deaf, dumb, and blind, that continue to perpetuate and even condone, disrespectful behavior...if you ever want to know something, about what I have spoke here, please by all means ask, respectfully.

White Buffalo Calf Found Dead

I received this news by phone and then again from personal post. News travels fast in the Indigenous World. The news about the sacrilege against Lightning Medicine Cloud and her mother is another act of violence against our Teachings, Truth, Wisdom and Knowing, ~ our inter-relatedness with All Life ~ and this affirms another reason I was was feeling so much grief this last 4 days. They were murdered on Monday. And I admit I was wondering why feelings about stalking, and predatory behavior were pain in my heart. It is fact that we gaias know and sense when predators are among us, and stalk us, and violate our Mother Earth. And then, all these other really wonderful things started to emerge and connect today....like the Grandmothers announcing: "The Ride Home" to heal these sacrileges for ourselves and our children.

~ so I must go in another direction with this news, from deep within my
wisdomheartseedlove ~

~ because the Teachings are true, just as my Elder's said:
~ "When we pray in this Way, it is so."


For me the White Buffalo Calf, represents the affirmation of the Lakota Wisdom Teachings about White Buffalo Calf Woman, the ushering in of the Divine Feminine needed at this time, and that the age of the Wisdom Peace Teachings is in the here and Now to be embodied once again and nothing can change this or deter this, not even the murder of a Sacred Being. Because, there is the Universal Law of Cause and Effect, which has very specific atributes. I'd be happy to review it with those that may have forgotten it, as it is far beyond, the simplistic understanding most have with the word "karma"...it is deeply profound, and gives language to what we call in the First Nations as "Respects".
There is a saying that goes with a teaching: "medicines have life and protections of their own". The word "medicine" is spoken in a variety of contexts and can be a teaching, a plant, a Way of Life, a Being...etc. Since our Way of Life is interconnected with All that Is...this knowing, is also interconnected with the Law of Cause and Effect.
You can not "murder" the emergence of the Divine Feminine, by the act of taking the earthly form of Lightning Medicine Cloud and her Mother, because you can't live or be born without us.
The Elders have said you can come willingly or unwillingly, you can make it painful or a joyous celebration, this is up to you. The continued violence, is only the fear of the Wisdom you forgot. Our Wisdom-compassion will give rise to that which we will re-teach again, of the instructions for a harmonious life with All That Is. This is So.


Fracking Cheney and Haliburton: Wake Up Time


If you care in the least about our Mother Earth or at the least for your own life, I suggest that every effort by every person here on Turtle Island and abroad be taken to stop fracking before all  water is contaminated.
Fracking Cheney and Halliburton better known for their proliferation of war crimes and nuclear weapon manufacturing, are taking full advantage of " The Energy Policy Act of 2005" which is "... a broad-sweeping, 400+ page omnibus bill made famous due to the “Halliburton Loophole. This loophole, written by and for Halliburton -- the company of which then Vice President Dick Cheney was formerly the CEO -- called for shale gas corporations to receive an exemption from the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA). The SDWA mandates disclosure of the chemicals in any extractive process like fracking; if the chemicals are a ecological safety hazard, they are prohibited under the law."
So you cant be surprised that the prior "vice" President had his own personal interests in mind for his future criminal endeavors against All Life on this Mother Earth. This said, at this time this goes for all politicians and elections. The government is broken, the FDA, EPA and all the agencies work for greed and destruction. Don't give me the song and dance, about this good guy here or there within the government....how many can you count that could not have their vote bought? Be honest, now, and read Obama's Executive Order of March 16th, 2012..and then tell me what you think, yes I said think.  They are laying ground to pretend any action the government takes is with in the "law". This includes, that if the DoD "needs' a resource, they can have it, and usurp any veto, or prior contract, or any bill, act or such that does not pass the House and Senate. Think about this, very carefully.
The laws, policies, acts, bills, whatever, have not served the greater good of All Life for a loooong time. To continue to turn a blind eye, or plead ignorance at this juncture, is sheer complicity. You know how to use the computer...google "fracking" and stop shopping and TV. Now, get involved in protecting Life, and change your lifestyle Americans!



The Thirteen Grandmother's : "The Ride Home"

The Thirteen Grandmother's : "The Ride Home"

"Embracing these teachings, our earth and all Her children may begin to forgive and heal." 
I am not amazed, that after 4 days of a deep sense of personal and collective grief,  I received a post via one of the Grandmother's liaisons. It was an invitation, and announcement about the Grandmother's "The Ride Home" and to ask that we all share this message far and wide.

This is the eleventh year that the International Counsel of Indigenous Grandmothers will gather together. This year they will be in the Cheyenne homeland of Grandmother Margaret and gather for "Gratitude Brings Freedom" and ride horses from Oklahoma to Montana, to heal the wounds of relocation and loss  of life.  All of us have this opportunity to heal during this herstoric journey.

"The intention of the ride is to cleanse the blood-stained land of the Cheyenne from both sides. The wisdom of the ancestors lives deep in the soil of this nation. It is time to cultivate the seeds of the wisdom that Indigenous people died to protect. Led by Grandmother Margaret and the Cheyenne ancestors, prayer and healing ceremonies will be held at sites of sacrifice along the route. It is the wisdom of the ancestors that will be greatly honored and carried in peace in the hearts of our riders. Embracing these teachings, our earth and all Her children may begin to forgive and heal." 

Please LIKE and share their message far and wide.

Petition to Save the Sacred Headwaters of Secwepemc Territory

http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/protect-our-sacred-headwaters/?utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook&utm_campaign=button

"Currently, there is mining exploration taking place in our headwaters of the Adams River, unsurrendered Secwepemc Territory. The impacts of this mining project, if allowed to go through, will be permanent and irreversible. The proposal includes:
- Bringing big industry into untouched, ecologically sensitive areas in our glaciers, headwaters and the only Interior Temperate Rainforest in the World
- 2,000 tonne per day (700,000 tonne per year) to be mined
- Toxic tailings slimes (ponds) at Tumtum Lake and Oliver Creek basin
- Massive waste rock dumps, heavy metals and acid mine drainage contamination
- 200 person permanent mining town including sewage, electricity, roads, railroads and all the infrastructure for a small town at Tumtum Lake

We demand an immediate and permanent stop to Imperial Metals' Ruddock Creek Project in our Sacred Headwaters."

Oil Spill in the Great Bear Rain Forest

Andrew Frank posted about the Oil Spill in our Great Bear Rain Forest.
"“If this spill is as big as the pilots are reporting, then we’re looking at serious environmental impacts, including threats to our traditional shellfish harvesting areas,” says Arnold Clifton, Chief Councillor of the Gitga’at Nation. “We need an immediate and full clean-up response from the federal government ASAP.”"
“If this spill is as big as the pilots are reporting, then we’re looking at serious environmental impacts, including threats to our traditional shellfish harvesting areas,” says Arnold Clifton, Chief Councillor of the Gitga’at Nation. “We need an immediate and full clean-up response from the federal government ASAP.”

From a Bear's perspective, the human species can't keep up with all the contamination that is being unleashed into our environment...do you think that it is time for you to reconsider the validity of your lifestyles? Just maybe Tomas Bacancya was right?...he only started talking about what would happen 60 years ago...DID YOU LISTEN? Hmmmm....maybe there is a reason for Elders. 
I suggest that humans stop all "technological advances, production, and research" until you clean up the messes you have made.

Beltaine ~ May Day Poem By Jan


(( Old Deep Ones// Raven walks to me three times//then to the river//        //4/27/12 for Beltaine (April 29 and May Day)
Citizen Earth// After the prayer…))        Title as above// luis-beth-nion
Daughter of the Universe
Child of the Moon and Earth
Traveling over Ocean Waves
Deep in the Starry Night
I was a Bird with open wings
Soaring, never touching down
I drank the dew from the Moonbeams
Deep in the starry night
Like a Turtle turning ‘round
I saw the ships come from afar
Greetings of the Red Fire Star
Bright in the brilliant day
I was these jumping Dolphins there
Whale’s bellow blown before
The Sea-wolf and the wing-ed Ray
Lions; Fish ;Pearls adorned
I was the Mother of the World
My birthing gave the name to men
My creatures all so fine and fair
Deep in the dying day
The finest those, who fly and swim
And dance and play there still
Who climb and hover, o’er the Din
Deep in the Hidden Time
O’ generous, our Nurturing                                                “nurturment”                                     
And how the Rain and Waters flow
The Tides a power, for life does grow
Deep in the starry night
