UPDATE: This is a must watch for the latest, fullest information about border security and illegal aliens still remaining in USA. Homan is clear as a bell and does most of the talking and answering questions. Highly recommended. ABN
Ursula is pushing leftist ‘soft’ totalitarianism, wrapped in smarmy ‘morality’. What she wants is to control European minds by controlling what they can say and hear. At this juncture, as AI advances rapidly and security controls become increasingly omnipotent, we must insist on free speech, unrestricted free speech. Restricting speech based on bogus claims of ‘misinformation’ or ‘hate speech’ or whatever Ursula doesn’t like, serves only the totalitarians. With free speech on as many platforms as possible, the citizens of the West will constitute the only repository of information that can compete with AI. ABN
USA-229 is a pair of Naval Ocean Surveillance Satellites (NOSS) in control of the US Navy. Their systems are classified but their purpose is to track boats and airplanes.
The satellites were launched in 2011. BAE Systems was awarded a $50 million contract in 2010 to develop Argus-IR. Testing was spring 2012 consistent with the satellite launch having the Argus payload.
“ARGUS-IR further expands military capability by providing 24-hour, day-night reconnaissance and surveillance capabilities over a much wider area than previously possible,” said Dr. John Antoniades
“ARGUS-IR will provide at least 130 independently steerable video streams to enable real-time tracking of individual targets throughout the field of view.”
This is the real location of USA-229 on March 7th, 2014 and that bubble is the coordinates of the satellite video.
USA-229 relays to NROL-22, which beams the data to ground based computers to produce the fully interactive video.
I have posted much of Ashton’s research and have found it credible enough to keep doing that. There has been a lull in new information for many months. Now this. The ‘bubble’ is the blocked satellite imaging of the Flight MH370, which supposedly was lost in flight and never found. The ‘bubble’ proves we have had this information all along but are still concealing it. Ashton has a wild story by the horns and this looks pretty conclusive. The gist of the story is USA has time-warp technology that can disappear an entire airplane and also do much worse than that. The tech is so powerful it could be world-ending if released and used as a weapon. Further, concise background information on Ashton’s work with links to important video can be found here. ABN
The pilot of the Black Hawk helicopter that collided with the American Airlines passenger airplane did not comply with directions to change course seconds before the fatal incident, a bombshell new report has revealed.
On the night of January 29, Army Black Hawk pilot Capt. Rebecca Lobach was conducting an annual flight evaluation with her co-pilot Chief Warrant Officer 2 Andrew Loyd Eaves, who was serving as her flight instructor.
Three months on, new details published by The New York Times revealed that the pilot made more than one mistake leading to one of the worst catastrophes in aviation history.
Not only was Lobach flying her Black Hawk too high, but in the final moments before the impact, she failed to take advice and instruction from her co-pilot to switch course.
Lobach’s piloting skills were being tested during the evaluation on the fateful night, before the crew were informed that an aircraft was nearby, according to the report.
Just 15 seconds before colliding with the commercial airplane, air traffic control told Lobach and Eaves to turn left, but she did not do so.
Seconds before impact, co-pilot Eaves then turned to Lobach in the cockpit and told her that air traffic control wanted her to turn left. She still did not do so.
Punishment must fit the crime. In like manner, law must be applied to fit the situation. This is the pragmatic, real basis of all American law. Judges who violate these basic principles are either ignorant of the law or activist frauds. They should be impeached and removed from the bench, if not jailed for treason. ABN
…Perception and memory processing in the lucid dreaming state were found to be different from non-lucid REM sleep. The consciousness of existing in a dream was associated with with beta waves in the right central lobe (which controls spatial awareness and nonverbal memory) and parietal lobe (which controls the sense of touch and spatial awareness). Beta waves are a type of high-frequency electromagnetic activity in the brain involved in conscious thought processes like solving problems or making decisions. Our consciousness is dominated by beta waves when we are awake.
This might explain why there is so much cognitive control in lucid dreams. Dreamers deep in REM sleep have no sense of control over factors like thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, but those in lucid dreaming states do.
…Demirel also linked gamma waves with lucid dreaming. These are the fastest brain waves, which become visible on an EEG at times when the brain is especially alert and focusing on something. When lucid dreaming begins, gamma waves increase in the right precuneus, which is involved in self-referential thinking—thoughts about ourselves and our lives. When we are awake, we often drift into this type of thinking when our minds wander.
Maybe the most mind-bending thing about lucid dreams is that they are, according to the study, similar in the brain to the effects of psychedelic drugs such as LSD and ayahuasca. These types of psychedelic experiences are also associated with the precuneus, whose activity is modified when waking imagery is seen despite having closed eyes (something usually only experienced with psychedelics).
Lucid dreaming and lucid sleeping are important practices in the Buddhist tradition. There is a lot of literature on it and it’s worth the time learning how to do it. For dreaming, napping in a slightly awkward position can help. I spent a year or so napping at noon on a couch with one foot on a table beside the couch, the other on the arm of the couch. That was enough to keep my bodily proprioception semi-conscious so when dreams started I was already slightly lucid. Sleeping on a bus or train is another place to practice. I had an extended period of becoming lucid during deep sleep, or so it seemed to me. Consciousness has many facets and angles. The original title of this article called lucid dreaming a ‘new’ state of consciousness. It is not new at all. It has been part of the samadhi traditions for millennia. ABN
It takes many years to reach this conclusion. I have a somewhat similar background. In the early 2000s, I naively assumed the US intelligence community already knew what Jack is saying about China. Based on that, I figured our politicians and business leaders had been briefed; that they knew the score. The truth was, it took the US government and Western elite longer to figure this out than many Western individuals who had actually lived in China and learned the language. I am not blaming anyone, just pointing out that elites in the West and probably everywhere are no smarter or insightful than ordinary people. Indeed, as a group, elites often behave stupidly. They are held together by psycholinguistic codes and mutual dependency, so they all tend to think alike or form factions that do. Their deep misunderstanding of China can be seen in many other areas — their failure to form an alliance with Russia after the fall of the SU, the Ukraine War, mass third-world immigration, the covid psyop mingled with the incongruous fantasy that deep down all people are the same and all of them will treat you well if you treat them well, and so on. Intel services would do much better if they listened to were led by people who have had real-life ordinary experience in whatever area they want to understand. I am a proud conspiracy theorist, but the examples above show that much of our predicament as citizens (of any nation) is our elites are poorly informed, selfishly tied to each other, and as such stupid. Yes, they do conspire against us and cause great harm but they do that stupidly as well. ABN
Ask just about anybody, and they’ll tell you that new cars are too expensive. In the wake of tariffs shaking the auto industry and with the Trump administration pledging to kill the federal EV incentive, that situation isn’t looking to get better soon, especially for anyone wanting something battery-powered. Changing that overly spendy status quo is going to take something radical, and it’s hard to get more radical than what Slate Auto has planned.
Meet the Slate Truck, a sub-$20,000 (after federal incentives) electric vehicle that enters production next year. It only seats two yet has a bed big enough to hold a sheet of plywood. It only does 150 miles on a charge, only comes in gray, and the only way to listen to music while driving is if you bring along your phone and a Bluetooth speaker. It is the bare minimum of what a modern car can be, and yet it’s taken three years of development to get to this point.
But this is more than bargain-basement motoring. Slate is presenting its truck as minimalist design with DIY purpose, an attempt to not just go cheap but to create a new category of vehicle with a huge focus on personalization. That design also enables a low-cost approach to manufacturing that has caught the eye of major investors, reportedly including Jeff Bezos. It’s been engineered and will be manufactured in America, but is this extreme simplification too much for American consumers?
