A better World for The Children
So clean, so perfectly polished was the dark wooden floor as I was escorted to the office of X, that it almost took on the appearance of water beneath my feet.

How We Owe Everything To A Spark Of Pure Genius
Being a baby boomer, I go all the way back to a time when for us poor folk modern technology consisted of a kettle with a whistle to call your attention to the fact that the water had reached boiling point for making a pot of tea. In many ways, we have come an awful long way, and yet I'm not so sure about calling it progress.

I Am A Muralist
Future generations of humans will run across descriptions of the “shift” in their history books, in the logs and blogs of their ancestors and wonder what it must have been like before it happened. I can assure you that it wasn’t very nice BA (before ascension).

What You Need to Know About the Peloponnesian War
When reminiscing upon the history of ancient civilizations, it is easy to emphasize the glorious contributions to modern day society: the art, architecture, culture, theology, philosophy, politics, and technology. Ancient Greece gave modern society democracy, algebra, theater, the Archimedes Screw, stunning sculpture, and rich mythology; yet when it comes to common knowledge, civil wars and bloody battles are often overlooked in favor of the culture’s crowning achievements. Yet, much can be learned from war, especially when it involves a divided nation.

Alchemy and Healing
We are mix of ingredients. We are energy , we are matter , we are spiritual and we are natural. Knowing how to alchemize every part of who we are to the world we live in , is miraculous. Now there is a reason why most don't know how to alchemize life . Let's start with the average classroom in any preschool, elementary school, middle or high school. You will find education by way of books, laptops and Ipads. Subjects that continue to be recycled through each new class that enters every school year. There is math, english , science, history, civics etc. There are computer classes, engineering basics, AP courses and everything in between. Out of all that students are offered there is nothing that involves mixing our ingredients , ALCHEMY!

"Shaken by a Living Wind"
On the Manistee River banks, a Potawatomi tribal leader—Simon Pokagon —heard something strange as he prepared his fishing traps. It was a bright spring morning in 1850 Michigan and except for a distant rumble, all was tranquil around the water. But the sound grew louder by the moment until finally the 20-year-old fisherman put down his traps and stopped dead in waders. “An army of horses laden with sleigh bells was advancing through the deep forests towards me,” he wrote later about the experience.

FTS
Flashing red lights fill the metallic room. Click. “Shit! They got the newest locks.” shouted the masked figure. He began kicking the door and looking for “it”. Time was running out and he just kept kicking the shiny walls. Crash! He found the circuit board to release the locks, and knowing the Fathers were on their way, he started rewiring. Knock-Knock.

When Earth was Mushrooming
Long before trees overtook the land, earth was covered by giant mushrooms 24 feet tall and three feet wide, these giant spires dotted the ancient landscape. These gigantic fungi existed here on earth approximately 420-370 million years ago. Dinosaurs, on the other hand did not arrive here until around 230.5 million years ago. In other words, the mushrooms were here up to 190 million years before the dinosaurs. Don’t try to count that on your fingers and toes unless you are a gazillopede.

Prologue The year was 2037, mass chaos spread across the world as epidemics wiped out the nations. Government’s took control by dominating the human population; natural disasters spread across the land drowning the coasts and burning what was left of the land. The death rate was 2:1, bodies dropped like flies as the world turned on all living things. Doomsday had begun.
