http://www.d.umn.edu/cla/faculty/tbacig/cst3010/drugs.html The role of drugs on the popular culture of the 1960s LSD (Acid) Lysergic acid diethylamide, better known as LSD helped make the sixties what it was. The people who were questioning the system needed to find a new light to look upon things. Their solution was to explore psychedelics. The most common was LSD, a chemical discovered in 1943 by Swiss chemist Albert Hofmann. LSD let people look at things with the different angle their psychidelic trance allowed them.LSD was originally available in tablet form, but once it was declared illegal, it was mainly used in one of the following ways: reacted solid allowed to crystallize: window pane acid (4-way) liquid acid (via oral, in the eyeball, or mucous membrane entry) liquid acid put on blotter paper. (such as the famous Beavis and Butt-head acid shown). Blotter paper acid generally has 100 small dosage squares (individually called "dots") which are pre-cut or are peforated as in the Beavis and Butt-head acid. mixture with other drugs (such as dropping some onto marijuana before smoking)
Is anyone else sick of Dow’s Human Element campaign? I know I’m not the first to note the irony. Dow bought Union Carbide and now refuses to take responsibility for the cleanup and liability of a terrible chemical accident in Bhopal many years earlier.I know that it is a complex issue—legally, politically, and ethically—but Dow is a little disingenuous to claim that they care so much about humankind. If Dow were human-conscious, the problem might become simple: Union Carbide shirked on its responsibility to clean up a disastrous chemical spill; Dow bought Union Carbide; along with the benefits of owning Union Carbide come the responsibility of correcting a financial and moral wrong. Instead, Dow only points out that it didn’t own the plant when the accident occurred. But that ignores that fact that today Dow is still benefiting from Union Carbide’s escaping responsibility. I say that Dow just pay for the cleanup (which other companies are willing to help with). Maybe even pay some liability settlements to the poor people harmed by the spill and contaminated lands. Then Dow can show ads like the following with a clear conscience.

Mind Controlled Appliances & Computer Programs A recent post from James Hartman notified us about recent experiments where human thought was used to control appliances. Patrick Bailey found the location on the InterNet which gave more detail and coincidentally enough, I received a catalog in the mail describing a device which allows you to control your movements in various game programs using a biofeedback device. All of the above information is included herein for your consideration.
The Mind Switch refers to the technology that has been developed which allows a person to turn on and off an electrical appliance, such as a desk lamp or TV in 2-3 seconds without training. Proportional control, such as turning up or down the volume of a radio is also possible with the technology. This research is being carried at the University of Technology, Sydney (UTS).
BACKGROUND - General
Early in 1994 while studying the response of the brain to environmental factors Associate Professor Ashley Craig and Mr Paul McIsaac of the Department of Health Sciences at UTS, noticed an effect which appears to be common among all persons. That effect is an increase in a particular brain signal when a person closes his/her eyes for more than one second. The important question that Ashley and Paul then asked was could this effect be used to do something useful?, ie - could the control of the brain signal be used, in turn, to control something else? At this stage Ashley contacted Professor Tony Moon, the Dean of Science at UTS, to find out if anyone could help answer the technical questions and design a system that might exploit the apparent change in the signal level when a person closes his/her eyes. Professor Moon introduced Ashley to Dr Les Kirkup who is a senior lecturer in the department of Applied Physics at UTS, who has experience in developing electronics and instrumentation. It was thought he could offer important input to the project.
He was initially sceptical that signals as small as those that are present on the scalp, (where electrodes are placed to pick up brain activity) could be detected reliably and analysed sufficiently quickly to allow activation of an external device , such as a lamp or TV. The data that had been gathered on signal levels with eyes open and eyes closed showed that a significant increase occurred in the 8-13Hz part of the 'brain spectrum' commonly referred to as the 'alpha' region. Les built a det ection, discrimination and analysis system based on Ashley and Paul's data and, much to his surprise at least, the first person (Lucy) connected to the system showed the capability of operating a switch which could control an electrical appliance.
BACKGROUND - Technical
Serious work done on brain signals began with Berger in 1929 [Berger 1967]. Since that time the acquisition and analysis of brain signals, referred to as Electroencephalography (EEG) has advanced to such a state that EEG is regularly used to assist in the diagnosis of schizophrenia, epilepsy and brain tumours. [Geddes and Baker, 1989]. EEG has also been used in biofeedback studies in which subjects may learn to modify their EEG signals in response to visual representation of their EEG signals. This control usually take weeks or months to learn and is not highly reliable. The system we have developed does NOT rely on any learned skill by an individual. It simply requires a person to close his/her eyes for more than 1 second to effect sufficient change in the signals levels to allow for the reliable operation of a switch. It turns out that it has been known for many years that increase in signal level occur upon eye closure, but this is the first example (to our knowledge) of the recognition of its potential and the exploitation of the effect. The system used to detect the change in signals consists of amplifiers, filters and other signal processing elements (full details are still classified at the moment!). As there are other sources which can generate signals which can interfere with brain signals (and hence cause intermittent switching on and off of appliances) we have developed a noise suppression system which eliminates the effect of those noise sources. This feature is very important as we are currently developing the technology for disabled persons (we have a three year grant from the Motor Accident Authority of New South Wales, MAA) and reliability is a major issue. The funding from MAA has allowed us to appoint Mr Andrew Searle who has become a key figure in the technical developments regarding the Mind Switch. In addition Mr Perez Moses is developing new noise suppression techniques to be applied in this work.

PUBLICATIONS
Papers detailing our work have not appeared so far in the peer reviewed literature as we have been keen to secure funding for a patent to cover the intellectual property associated with the principles and the technology. We now have that funding. We are now in the position to submit papers to journals and it is our intention to write letters to international journals giving details of our developments.
Applications We see that the technology we have developed could be used in the following areas; As an aid to the disabled to increase their control over the environment. For entertainment purposes, for example in the development of 'mind controlled' toys such as robots, or perhaps interaction with video games. As a fundamental element of the 'house of the future' in which (perhaps) a central computer responds to variations in brain signals and allows control of, for example, a security system or telephone.
It is the first application that we are concentrating on at present and have attracted grant money to partially support a three year development program in this area.
Current Developments
We are currently at the stage of testing a system that will allow a person to switch on or off up to six items. We see this as moving towards a system that could be tested in the house of a disabled person and give them control over a number of electrically operated appliances.
We are also investigating the nature and extent of the control that a range of people are able to show. This would allow us to decide where to best place electrodes on the scalp, and what adjustments might be required to customise the system to an individual.
Future Prospects
As well as technological development aimed at reducing the time it takes a person to activate an appliance and devising an improved noise suppression system, the most exciting prospect at the moment is the possible identification of another switch in the head that operates on quite a different principle. If we can confirm this and use the 'new switch' in conjunction with the one already developed, we might be able to offer the possibility of the brain sending codes that would allow many devices to be selected quickly - watch this space!
Many people have shown interest in the work the team is doing. Recently the Federal Minister for Science and Technology, Peter McGauran, visited UTS specifically to talk to the team and experience the technology first hand.

A catalog came in the mail recently with some novel products. Chief among these was a small black box with a cable leading to a sensor module that attaches to your finger. You hook the box into your computer and it reads directed bio signals. It looks like one of those $15 Radio Shack lie detector circuits but the ad indicates there is more to it. KeelyNet does have a biology section and I am forever fascinated by interacting with machines by thought. I think such devices might be used as superb bio-feedback training techniques, especially in a game form. Here is the copy;

before his assassination I believe one of the first priorities on the list would be to produce an abundance of energy. There really are two things we must do; produce an abundance of energy, and drastically increase productivity.The magnecular water covers the energy issue. But with productivity we need to mechanize everything.
We should not have slaves making our clothing, and food. Robots and mechines should do everything.
And I mean everything. Energy and productivity are really the only issues...
the rest; politics and religion can be assessed on the grounds of whether they promote or resist energy and productivity.
Ecology and humanity are enherent aspects of energy and productivity. If you destroy either one in the process energy and productivity cannot be sustained. What we are talking about is the whole picture of future progeny and not some finite gross industrialization.
Productivity would incorporate utilizing the best soil for growing food. This means we need to STOP building on our prime soil. Further we should actively teraform earths growing wastelands into firtal land.
Following significant change as here proposed we can then consider which planets to teraform in near by systems. The moon needs to be turned into a space station

Gleason's work is funded by the U.S. Army, the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), and the National Science Foundation (NSF).
The lotus leaf was Gleason's model.
At Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), chemical engineer Karen Gleason is particularly interested in copying the lotus leaf to make waterproof clothing that is not stiff or hot like rubber coated oil cloth, but lightweight and comfortable to wear. Along with other researchers from MIT's Institute for Soldier Nanotechnologies who are working on the military uniform of the future, Gleason has spent time with soldiers in the field in rural Louisiana. During training exercises there, their uniforms quickly became soaking wet and muddy, and they asked the MIT team to work on "waterproofed everything." Since soldiers going into combat usually carry at least 75 pounds in armor and equipment, they wanted lighter loads.
Collaborating with MIT chemist Alexander Klibanov, Gleason is combining two separate nanoscale coatings to make military clothing and blankets that would repel microbes as well as water, but would look and feel like untreated fabric. To make ordinary cotton waterproof, Gleason has patented a process that she developed called hot filament chemical vapor deposition. She starts with plastic molecules in gas form. When the gas is heated by filaments, or wires, inside a metal vacuum chamber that resembles a toaster, a chemical reaction causes the gas molecules to change shape.
On fabric, this change forms waterproofing that leaves it lightweight and comfortable to wear. "The coating is very thin," Gleason explains, "so that you physically cannot feel that it's different from uncoated fabric. That's because the process allows you to coat the entire thickness of the fabric. It goes around each individual textile fiber that makes up the weave, rather than just forming a layer on the top of the surface. It keeps the open areas in the weave, so that the fabric can breath."
So far, Gleason and her team have coated cotton T-shirts, and have found that the coating lasts through laundering. They've also used their process to waterproof silk and foam, and even money: "We've actually made dollar bills waterproof."
Now Gleason is combining her waterproofing with an extremely thin anti-microbial coating developed by Klibanov.
So far, cotton treated with the combination produces far fewer bacteria than untreated cotton does. The two researchers hope to be able to use their combination coating to make soldiers' bulletproof body armor, which deteriorates when exposed to water, both waterproof and germ-free.
Most recently, Gleason's process has been described in the Journal of Fluorine Chemistry (2003) and Chemistry of Materials (2000).

Next Big Thing Is a Really Small Battery NewsFactor August 28, 2003 In a field that is so young and is moving so quickly, it's hard to see the milestones, but it has advanced from the theoretical research phase to patented techniques that will form the foundation for its growth and development. One such patent has just been issued to the University of Tulsa for batteries that are so small that 40 could be stacked across the width of a human hair. Chemistry professor Dale Teeters and two of his former chemical engineering students, Nina Korzhova and Lane Fisher, have constructed thousands of tiny batteries, each of which can deliver up to 3.5 volts. * Waterproof and Germ Proof ScienCentral August 28, 2003 What if all you needed to pack for your summer vacation was a comfortable T-shirt that kept you dry if it rained, and fought off germs, too? Nanotechnology could lead to lightweight clothing that’s waterproof and germ proof. Some nanotechnologists are working on ways to make paints, roof tiles, and other surfaces that can stay dry and clean themselves, just as the lotus leaf does. To come up with new materials with what they call the “lotus effect,” researchers are working from the molecular level up.
Nanotech to take a flying leap off the ivory tower for Chicago event
SmallTimes August 28, 2003 Organizers of a new nano conference promise to make this one stand out from the others by emphasizing business and products, rather than research and theory.

Nanophase Technologies - Nanocrystalline Bismuth Oxide PRNewswire August 28, 2003 Nanophase Technologies Corporation (Nasdaq: NANX), today announced commercial availability of bismuth oxide nanomaterials. Bismuth oxide is incorporated into specialty polymers and materials for bone implants, dental prosthetic devices, catheters, sutures and surgical instruments to make them detectable by X-rays without the toxicity or carcinogenicity associated with other heavy metals. When incorporated into other plastics, benefits such as X-ray detection of toys and objects swallowed by children, or X-ray detection of plastic firearms at airport security stations, can be achieved.
* Nanotech goes to war EETimes August 28, 2003 The creation of MIT's Institute for Soldier Nanotechnologies poses the reasonable question of whether nanotech has anything in its bag of tricks to improve the lot of the common grunt. The institute's founders and the U.S. Army, which kicked things off with a $50 million grant, clearly believe there is something to the concept of applying the smallest of small technology to the battlefield. But getting there, starting with today's tentative stabs at mining the molecular and atomic world, could turn into a torturous journey.
Shifting Molecules EETimes August 28, 2003 In recent years some promising research has suggested that the surface properties of materials can be controlled at the molecular level. The ability to control surface properties would be useful to the futuristic combat gear being developed at MIT, since it would enable the creation of fabrics that could instantly treat injuries such as broken bones or hemorrhages. The Institute for Soldier Nanotechnologies' Team 04 has already reported a breakthrough in switchable surfaces.

WCW Sponsors Art Exhibit in Chicago: Peace & Justice
YouTube members, click [here] to rate and comment on this video.
38 artists responded to a call for artists for the Peace & Justice: Artists' for Change exhibit. Most of the artists are professionals with a long list of credentials. A few of the well-known artists include print maker Tony Fitzpatrick, professor of art Joyce Owens and Jeff Zimmerman a muralist. Many of the artists teach at various Universities in the Chicago area. Bill Vose is a retired teacher from central Illinois and Betty Ann Mocek teaches at Concordia College. The subject of the show was WCW's call as well as peace, immigration, the environment and the Katrina disaster. The show evoked a lot of emotion and the pieces were thoughtful, some intellectual and some very passionate about the subject they were portraying. It will be up through October 14.
Even ordinary electrolysis can be made more efficient by using different electrolytes (additives that make the water conduct electricity better). For instance, Potassium Hydroxide works better than Sodium Hydroxide. It is also known that certain geometric structures and surface textures on the electrodes work better than others. Stan Meyer used concentric tubes with very close tolerances instead of the standard practice of parallel flat plates.
The implication is that unlimited amounts of Hydrogen fuel can be made to drive engines (like in your car) for the cost of water. Even more amazing is the fact that a special metal alloy was patented by Freedman (USA) in 1957 that spontaneously breaks water into Hydrogen and Oxygen, with no outside electrical input and without causing any chemical changes in the metal itself. This means that this special metal alloy can make Hydrogen from water for free, forever.

Interview Conducted by E. K. Caldwell (Cherokee/Shawnee, poet, lead interviewer for NEWS FROM INDIAN COUNTRY, author of BEAR, writer for New York Times Multicultural Syndication Service)
On the basis of a statement made by Julius Caesar in the first century BC, Louis Nizer offers his psychiatric diagnosis of the German people in the twentieth century AD:
Caesar wrote: "Their whole life is composed of hunting expeditions and military pursuits; from early boyhood they are zealous for toil and hardship. Those who remain longest in chastity win greatest praise among their kindred; some think that stature, some that strength and sinew are fortified thereby. Further they deem it a most disgraceful thing to have had knowledge of a woman before the twentieth year."
Psychiatrists will find in this observation fruitful material for their studies of the root causes of German sadism and of the inferiority complex which seeks to express itself through conquest and domination.
The well-known tendencies in Germany towards homosexuality became public knowledge when Hitler justified his purge of Roehm and his adherents on the ground that they had been guilty of practices of degradation which corrupted the governing circles. Hitler's and Hess' own "aestheticism," Goering's abnormal practices (as determined by a Swiss court), and the evil conduct of the Streichers and other Nazi leaders, fit well into the characteristic pattern of bestiality.
The study of psychotic behavior is still in the exploratory stages, but Caesar's report on the training begun ages ago by the German people to deny and invert normal instincts as part of the tribal custom may be a significant clue to sick German conduct. It is possible that German cruelty and blood lust is traceable to sexual inhibitions? Is there significance in the pornographic tendencies of the Germans fed by such official documents as Streicher's Stuermer?
Louis Nizer, What to do with Germany, Ziff Davis Publishing Company, Chicago and New York, 1944, pp. 18-19.
A cult of mass murder. Charlemagne's maddening refrain.
Other leaders had waged war because "from their youth up war is their passion." Plunder and the gratification of conquest were the driving force. But Charlemagne decreed an objective. It was not modest. He sought to conquer the world, a refrain which has since run through German existence with maddening and devastating persistence. He fought a war every year. His brilliant gifts were devoted to annihilating his neighbors and robbing them of their possessions. Germans followed him with fanatical devotion for the same principles which inspired them to follow the Kaiser and Hitler in our generation.
Louis Nizer, What to do with Germany, Ziff Davis Publishing Company, Chicago and New York, 1944, pp. 23-
The Germans have developed a philosophy which makes a religion of war and a cult of mass murder. They consider it their mission to subjugate all other peoples to slavery.
They exclude the doctrines of the sacredness of human life and liberty and substitute for it the ideal of war.
The unique phenomenon of Germanism is that its conspiracy against world peace is not mere gangsterism or nihilism.
It is an intellectual movement, if you please. It is supported by a philosophy carefully devised, nurtured and inculcated into every citizen.
Louis Nizer, What to do with Germany, Ziff Davis Publishing Company, Chicago and New York, 1944, p. 27.
Louis Nizer teaches that Germans are collectively responsible for the crimes of World War II because they collectively suffer from the disease of Germanism: Millions of little cogs.
There was the Kaiser before Hitler, and Bismarck before the Kaiser and Frederick the Great before Bismark — indeed, two thousand years of Germanism to account for. Under each ruler millions of Germans fought fanatically, heroically, sacrificially. Theirs was not conduct induced by compulsion.
Theirs was a will to execute a program and a readiness to die for it. The vaunted efficiency of German aggression depends on millions of little cogs acting in perfect coordination which involuntary compliance could not possibly produce.
Louis Nizer, What to do with Germany, Ziff Davis Publishing Company, Chicago and New York, 1944, p. 13.
Twice in one generation.
[N]o people can be innocent who have twice in one generation burst forth in aggression against all their neighbors, near and far. How is it that one spot on the surface of the earth, no larger than Texas, should so persistently explode and ravage the world?
And what were the toasts, the slogans, the anthems, the battle cries of this people? "Der Tag" — when Germany will rule the world. "Deutschland uber Alles". "Tomorrow we will rule the world."
Rule the world! Rule the world! No people who can thrill to such a mission are innocent victims of wicked leaders. Louis Nizer, What to do with Germany, Ziff Davis Publishing Company, Chicago and New York, 1944, p. 17.

Imagine running your car on water! That's correct, I said water.
Stanley Meyer did exactly that ! He modified his dune buggy to run on water alone using the hydrogen to run his dune buggy.
The goal of this web site is to explain the science behind Stanley Meyer?s water fuel cell. As a group we will study his theory, patents, and related information. The objective will be to replicate the water fuel cell. The completion of our work will be proof to the world of the validity of the water fuel cell.
The project section of the website will show various designs in the development stage from water fuel cell experimenters around the globe.
Have you ever thought about water as a fuel source?
The atomic make up of water makes the molecule perfect for a fuel source. The water molecule is composed of two atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen. When the water molecule is separated into its component atoms (H and O) and oxidized as fuel, the resulting energy is two and one half times more powerful than gasoline. The byproduct of the combustion is water vapor. Making water as a fuel, powerful and pollution free!
The problem has always been how to separate water economically. Traditional methods of separating the bond of the water molecule have resulted in failure. To power a car by these methods would not move the car very far. The car?s electrical system could not recharge from the process quickly enough. The result would be a quickly drained battery. For many years Stanley Meyer researched this problem and found a way around it!
There are many people, as you could well imagine, who would not like to see this technology appear in the market place.
Stanley A. Meyer died on March 27 1998 at the young age of 57. It is vital that his research and resulting technological advances are not lost, but rather that his work is continued.
Join in the creative spirit and challenge (that is not driven by greed) and help in an endeavor that will revolutionize the world. This effort will provide an efficient fuel source which is environmentally safe.
