American Film Schools

February 28th, 2009

American film schools have a rich history dating back to the 1970s, when there was little chance to get film education. The only option to gain knowledge was to go to Hollywood at a young age and work along with people in the industry. By the 1970s, many major universities began to offer classes in film technology. Over the years, many film schools have opened with numerous educational programs that provide actual industry experience along with education.
American film schools are accredited by the National Association of Schools of Art and Design (NASAD) and the National Association of Schools of Theatre (NAST). The schools are commonly departments of universities, divisions of colleges or separate schools. There are some privately owned film schools as well that are not connected to American universities. Most of the schools provide undergraduate and graduate degree programs and some have graduate programs only. Various techniques involved in movie making, including film production, film theory and screen writing are taught. Hands-on practical knowledge and intern programs are included as part of studies.
Some schools are considered top in the nation. New York Film Academy, Los Angeles Film School, USA Film School, San Francisco School of Digital Filmmaking, and FSU Film School are among them. These schools are located in prime areas of cities including New York and Los Angeles, and provide better education and have good infrastructure. But studying in these schools is quite expensive.
Founded in 1929, The University of Southern California’s School of Cinema-Television is the oldest film school in the nation. Some other good schools are the American Film Institute (AFI), California Institute of the Arts, Columbia University School of the Arts, The North Carolina School of the Arts, and the schools at New York University (NYU), University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), and University of Texas at Austin.

New York Film Schools provides detailed information on Film Schools, New York Film Schools, Top Film Schools, American Film Schools and more. New York Film Schools is affiliated with Italian Cooking Schools.

Examine a Unique Abdominal Reduction Strategy

February 28th, 2009

Are you like many other men? Finding your area around the middle is widening or forming a bee line due south. Is there too much belly for too little trousers waist? Are you understanding that the wasted, horizontal TV time, eating chips and boozing has finally caught up with you, and you are featuring love handles? Have you lost your 6 pack abs(http://6-pack-abs.biz)? You’re certainly not alone and there is great news for you.

If you desire definition in your abs you should start some ab exercises (http://ab-exercises.org). It does not matter if you are a man or a woman, you can benefit from a stronger back. When you beef up one you strengthen the other. There are simplified exercises to get rid of the spare tire, such as sit ups and crunches.

With a focus on the lower back try lying down on your tummy. Do the leg swim motion by lightly kicking with knees and feet off the flooring. Do repetitions of 15 seconds action, resting 30 seconds.

It is likely a great idea to cut the sodium in your diet. It is accepted to link salt and sodium rich foods with heart troubles and risk of stroke. Sodium also results in water retention which can make a large belly look even worse. Don’t add extra salt to foods and stay away from processed foods. Drinking water can also aid in losing the big tummy. Water not only serves to keep the body hydrated, it also helps your body to metabolize stored fat into energy and reduces your appetite.

You may look at reducing your alcohol consumption as well. Im positive that youre just as disappointed as I was to find that alcohol doesnt serve the same purpose as water in spite of the fact that they are both liquids. Alcohol contains a lot of empty calories which for men tend to get deposited around the middle area creating love handles. You do not need to cut alcohol out altogether, just keep a tally of how much you booze and adjust as needed; same method as cutting back your food consumption.

E-Learning: Effective Employee Training

February 27th, 2009

Training is essential to any employee and provides not only a benefit to them but also to the company in increased productivity and employee job satisfaction. The high costs of travel combined with increasing strained budgets have meant that training can sometimes be the first thing to be cut when focusing on the bottom line. Companies are turning to a more cost-effective solution through online education and e-learning.

Training an employee is essential for any business, whether it be a fast food establishment or a multi-million dollar software company. One of the most effective ways to train employees is to let them get education at their own pace through e-learning training programs. Not only does this eliminate costly travel expenses but it also allows the employee to take the training on their own schedule as they are available. If an employee cannot finish the online education is one sitting they can easily come back to where they left off next time. Furthermore, if there is a question or a concept the employee does not understand the e-learning system lets them review and go over materials as often as they desire.

One of the foremost designers of e-learning software is Gary Blum Designs. They have developed online education systems for a number of major companies including Charles Schwab, Cygent and Sybase. If your company does not have an internal training department then hiring an outside contractor such as Gary Blum Designs can be the best solution for getting quality e-learning materials delivered right to your employees.

Most online education includes quiz and performance evaluation software at the end of the course. This information can be stored for use by management to see training weak-spots in the company or judge individual performance. Many times employees can re-take missed quizzes or evaluations and never be asked the same question twice thanks to the technology behind the e-learning application.

Elizabeth Bathory - Fact and Fiction

February 26th, 2009

Elizabeth Bathory is often looked upon as one of the true sources of the vampire legends and stories about her abound. Although there is some debate as to whether she bathed in the blood of virgins or simply covered herself in it, there is little doubt that she used it to help try to keep herself young and powerful. Fact and fiction are difficult to differentiate in her tale, but if you combine the known facts with the commonly believed but less verified stories of her, it makes for interesting, if bloody, reading.

Elizabeth Bathory was born into a powerful family in Hungary in 1560. Her parents were George and Anna Bathroy and belonged to one of the oldest, wealthiest aristorcratic families in Hungary. She had a cousin who became Prime Minister and her Uncle, Stephan Bathory, became the King of Poland reigning between 1575 - 1586. No doubt in part caused by inbreeding between many of the noble families, the Bathory family had more than its fair share of strange and often demented family members. These included and Uncle who was knows as an ardent Satanist and an Aunt, Klara, who was openly bisexual (at a time when it was far from ‘acceptable’) and Klara always had a house fully of very willing ‘guests’ including frequent visits by Elizabeth.

Elizabeth Bathory’s introduction to torture and sadism started early in her life with the first recorded incident being when she witnessed the death of a visiting gypsy accused of selling his children. Penalties for such a crime could be harsh, so after a night of torture in which his screams were heard throughout the castle, he was taken at dawn for his gruesome execution. This involved being sown into the belly of a freshly killed horse and left to die slowly and painfully with the procedure being witnessed by Elizabeth. Needless to say this made a lasting impression on Elizabeth and reinforced her already strongly held belief that lives of those under her were cheap.

As was often the custom at the time, Elizabeth was married early at the age of just 15. by an arranged marriage to Ferenc Nadasdy who became known as ‘The Black Knight of Hungary’. After the marriage they moved to one of the largest of their many properties, the mountain fortress of Castle Csejthe overlooking the village of Csejthe in north-western Hungary. Despite his background, Ferenc was poorly educated and spent much of his time fighting and warring, leaving Elizabeth very much to her own devices.

At the time it was common to beat the servants of a household for small infringements, sometimes severely. However, Elizabeth soon took this to new heights and by her early 20’s had become very inventive in ways to torture and punish her servants, savouring their screams and pleas for mercy. Her more inventive punishments included the use of heated pins inserted into the face, lips, limbs and fingernails as well as the removal of pieces of sensitive flesh with glowing pincers. When a more severe ‘punishment’ was called for the offending girl would often be dragged naked into the snow to be doused with iced water until she froze to death.

Elizabeth’s husband was far from innocent with regard to the tortures. Although he didn’t quite share Elizabeth’s fondness for screams and blood he often took a part in the tortures on the return from his campaigns. Indeed he was a great source of ideas for new tortures and punishments that Elizabeth could use, having learnt them on his brutal campaigns. One of her favourite punishments at this time would be to sew the lips together of any servant who spoke at the wrong time.

Ferenc Nadasdy’s died in 1604, said to have been murdered by a Harlot in Bucharest, so all of his property and responsibilities passed on to Elizabeth. Without her husband to restrain her even a little Elizabeth’s tortures and excesses became even more extreme. Hailed throughout Hungary in her early years as a great beauty she soon became obsessed with her age and looks. Rumour has it that when an unfortunate servant girl managed to catch a knot in Elizabeth’s hair whilst brushing it, Elizabeth hit the girl so hard that blood splashed on her the back of her hand. As she wiped the blood off, she imagined that the skin touched by the blood had regained the smooth complexion for which it had once been famous, thus restoring her youth. Turning to her friends and accomplices in her torture games, known as Anna Darvulia, Helena Jo and Dorothea Szentes (Dorka), they assured between them that indeed the blood of young women, especially virgins, could be on ready supply to help restore her youth and looks.

From that day on Elizabeth Bathory’s excesses grew and so did the number of girls tortured and killed. One of her favourite games was said to be to place the victim in a spherical cage too small to stand up in. The torture cage would hang by chains from the ceiling so that it could be easily swung. The inside of the cage was covered in spikes and the swinging motion would cause the victim to thrown around the cage, tearing the flesh and puncturing body as it scraped against the spikes. Elizabeth was then said to have stood underneath and covered herself in blood as it cascaded from the victims body.

It wasn’t long before the source of peasant girls started to dry up and after the death of her friend (and probable lover) Anna Darvulia, she turned to minor nobility for her sport and sadistic games. This combined with the body disposal becoming increasingly careless meant the authorities had no choice but to act shortly after. For mainly political reasons Elizabeth escaped death and instead was walled up in her room in the castle, with just a small hole for light and another for food. Of her friends and accomplices - Helena Jo and Dorothea Szentes had their fingers ripped off with red hot pincers before they were thrown alive into fires. The others were beheaded and their corpses burnt on the same fires.

Elizabeth was said to have lasted for several years, sealed in her room, before being found dead one day by a guard in 1614. The more supersticious believe that her death was the result of being deprived of virgins blood that gave her youth for so many years, obviously you’re free to make up your own mind on that issue. During her reign of terror 650 girls and women were reported to have been tortured and killed.

Why Hamlet still disturbs us?

February 25th, 2009

Many students face different and sometimes difficult tasks during their period of study. Some of them have to research new trends and gain new knowledge on different subjects, some of them should analyze new texts and new theories but almost every student studies to do this by analyzing some well-known, old and universally accepted theories or facts.

For those students who are enrolled at Humanities, Hamlet essay. represents one of the most common and popular writing assignments. Yet, despite the fact that this tragedy is several centuries old and has already become one of the most popular works in the literature, students nevertheless are baffled and sometimes perplexed by this assignment. Let us examine how it should be written. I would like to start with some obvious fact- you should read Hamlet before you start working on your essay. Do not succumb to the common mistakes of many students who compose their essays, based on the critical works of others. Undoubtedly there is a plethora of comments on this work as well as published critical analysis. However, your tutor would like to see your understanding of this work. You should impartially evaluate the character of Hamlet, his inclinations, motives and his thoughts. Try to answer several questions- why for instance the death of the farther has not been avenged immediately? What prompted Hamlet to delay it? What guided Hamlet? Many commentators hold the opinion that Hamlet was guided by some indecision or procrastination, or juts he was of high moral principles. However, there is a large group of critics who are inclined to contend that Hamlet’s deeds should be explained by external factors rather than internal psychological ones. According to this point of view Hamlet gave Claudius benefit of doubt and wanted to make sure that charges brought against him by ghost were true. What is your point of view and your contention on the theories mentioned? Why? Undoubtedly analysis of Hamlet, his thoughts and his deeds is one of the most common topics that can be assigned by your tutor. However, you may be assigned with various topics, ranging from similarities and differences between the heroes of the drama, relationship between four sons and four women, and other topics. In order to complete this type of an essay, one should read some critical work on Hamlet, yet only after you have read the book, you might borrow some ideas but only when you indicate the source. Needles, to say that this is imperative to indicate the sources when quoting; otherwise you may be accused of plagiarism. Despite the fact that Hamlet essay is a unique type of an essay, some other types of the writing assignments, such as political scien ce essay has many features in common with it. However, I would like to single out some peculiar points of this type of assignment: 1)One should choose an interesting topic. One should not treat this advice lightly, unfortunately too many students have succumbed to popular trend- choosing topics they are not really interested in, as the result they complicate the process of the writing of the paper by researching and investigating the event or personality that does nut interest them. 2)Once you have chosen it, you should be able to show the reader the reason of your choice, why are you interested in the events, problems, personalities mentioned. Why in your opinion it is vital to study it? Whatever the topic of your assignment is and whatever problem you are investigating, one should not confine oneself to theoretical studies in political science. Remember, you should be creative and imaginative in order to write this type of an assignment. And certainly, you should be persuasive. It is very important to enlist evidence to back up your assertions and facts to support your contentions. In order to do this, one can study the guide on persuasive essay, which techniques might help you in composing and designing other types of the essays. Let me give you just one final advice-whatever type of the essay you are assigned with, and whatever topic you have chosen-read essay guides before you start working on your assignment.

MindBlow and Mind Below

February 23rd, 2009

MindBlow and Mind Below

Human mind is numberless wonder of whole universe. This is the most fertile field of world. More you sow much you reap out of it.
The usage of this part of human body needs accurate and precise approach. The tool to sharpen the upper part of human body is only through education. The education can change the life of human being. This had been proven by scientific development of our world. Thus in most advanced and developed society, every possible care is taken in education sector applications.
Are we in India caring for this vital aspect of human being? This story is a little effort to discuss the national education with special reference to one of the leading and progressive state named Haryana.
According to 2001 census the population of largest democracy of the world was 1027015247. The managing of this huge population is a specialized job. To do this it required extra accuracy and farsightedness approach. Education is among first thrust, which need to be carefully managed, because it is directly linked to development of nation.
In 2002 India had 199144199 students starting from class 1 to higher education level. It means 19.3% of population was of student community.
Government and NGO’s are working hard to expand the area of education in the country, but their efforts are not yielding up to mark satisfaction.
In India in 2002 there were 113883060 students in primary school level. In middle school level numbers of students were 44828235. That means 69% of primary school students’ left their studies before or after fifth class. The facts and figures are similar in every year.
In same year (2002) there were 44828235 it mans 55% of student in middle school level whereas the number of high school students 20053986 who gave up their school bags after eight class. Continue to this process 48% of students left their studies from high school level to secondary level.
But here in last I am very surprised to see that after 10+2 level study gives up cases has drastically come down to 5%. This statistics clearly indicate that if student reaches primary level his or her probability of leaving school is 61%. If students cross first barrier (primary level) and reach to middle school then his percentage of leaving come down to 55%. Further after 10th standard to secondary levels this percentage further come down to 48%. Finally if he / she get passed 10+2 exam, the percentage to achieve higher education / professional education is 95%, which is very high as comparative to primary and middle level. These facts and figures clearly indicate that primary to middle classes are studies leaving prone classes.
Are these studies leaving the prone classes targeted by our education planners? . Answer is clearly no. This is very evident from following statistics.
In primary school level student / teacher ratio in India is 59:1, for middle class it was 31:1, whereas in 10+2 level it was 17:1 in 2002.In comparison to above after 10+2 level education there are 272 universities, 8737 colleges (general), 838 technology/ engineering college, 725 medical college, 846 teacher training colleges, 5462 polytechnic and it is and 1175 teacher training schools. This type planning will show its effects on society because knowledge level of population will be of high contrast. This will lead to fragmentation of that society which is already fragmented in the name of religion, caste and creeds. In this situation, the Education will work reversibly. This can be averted by making middle level focused education policy.
So emphasis of our education policy should be on study leaving prone classes.i.e.5th to 8th classes. The environment and education should be planned in such manner that student of these classes does not leave their studies in want of school are money. If the quantum of the students increases in 10+2 level then there will be more and more talents available for higher studies. This will not only enhance the level of knowledge among all sections of society in equilibrium but also give up maximum opportunities to maximum. This will show results in quality of higher study level. In which 50% of education budgets are invested. Take the case of Haryana in education. This small state has done commendable work as compare to other states of India. But due to non-practical approach of education planning, as in national education policy results are not up to the mark. Student teacher ratio in primary level was 39:1 as compare to national student teacher ratio 59:1 in 2002.
For middle classes this ratio in state was 33:1 in contrast to national average 31:1. Here one point is to mention this state was created on 1st nov.1966. The above student teacher ratio for the corresponding year was 43:1 and 30:1 for primary and middle classes respectively. Education budget at the creation of state in 1966 was merely 277.2 Lac rupees. Which reached 138429.51 Lac was invested which was 55.7% of total money allocated to education.
Thus after this statistics of one of the pioneer states of India one can guess situations in UP, Bihar, Orrisa and rest of other states of country.
To make mind blowing and not blowing quantum of the student is directly linked to excellence in education. Money and personals are here only precise planning is required.
Will our education planners ever do this and when? Answer to these questions lies in dark room. Who will open the doors of this dark room is to be seen yet.

Lance Rants on the False Number of Homeless in America Being Reported

February 19th, 2009

The World Media is claiming that there are 14-million homeless in America. That is absolutely absurd. In fact that is Bull. There are only 500,000 homeless, 1/3 by choice, 50% by drug and alcohol abuse, the rest will recover on their own. You do not have a friggin clue what you are talking about. Additionally we take care of our homeless. It is less that 1/6 of 1% of our population.

The World Media is purporting this as real, like so many other slanderous accusations against this great nation. Dear World Media; you are a liar. Sorry? Would you prefer; you have created yet another falsehood on in the world media to further promote your mass media hysteria agenda, too bad it is a lie; But is that the best you can do? Lie in order to slander America? Utterly ridiculous and such lack of integrity too. But with 300 million people in the US, if we did have 14 million or even 24 million that would still be less than the average in the World. And it would only be slightly above those first world nations we talk about so much. So take your falsifying butts and stick that story up your arse.

Next up the World media purports that 80 million have no health care. Not even close, the number is less than half that, but let me remind you slanderous media whores that The United States has the cleanest environment in the free world. Personally I have not been to doctor in 20 years and I am perfectly fine, healthy and good. When you live at this level of standard of living and quality of life in the Greatest Nation in the History of Mankind, you just do not need that level of healthcare.

You lying media scoundrels are whores and cannot tell the truth to save your rear ends. Many of you are maniac depressants, and alcoholics; not to mention; anti-globalist, anti-Capitalism, Anti-free enterpise and anti-US. You simply make stuff up as you go and copy the rest from other eco-terrorists and Green Peace recruits. Stop lying about America. That’s what I think and these rants have been brought to you by Lance.

An Interview on History and Educational Media

February 19th, 2009

1. Can you briefly summarize why you think history is a weapon of war against people?

Briefly?, not really, except to say Sun Tzu wasn’t the first to notice that propaganda was the first and most important part of conquest. Caesars won more through secret deals and blackmailing the likes of Herod and the Sanhedrin than they ever did through force of arms. We saw how guerillas work against a conqueror in Vietnam and even in Iraq at the present. I have written about fifty books. The framework for a new history that is based on forensics and science or artifacts rather than priestly power-mongers is now available.

2. But surely there are many who have written a truer history since the end of the Dark Ages?

Yes, but the destruction of libraries and the records of supposed beliefs in things like the Flat Earth or Kelts being ‘barbarians’ is still a part of current scholarship because people quote Caesar’s Journals that were actually written by Hirtius or other propaganda as if these reports are actual fair reportage to some extent as they say that is all we have. Michael Parenti and others like Howard Zinn of Harvard who have often been drummed out of Universities do tell a little of what I consider is true history. There has been some earlier authors quoted in the works of Herodotus and others once considered fiction but now being supported by actual artifacts.

3. What about when war is not going on? We still get the same history don’t we?

I love how Joseph Campbell described the SPIN which occurred at the start of WWII in his address called ‘Permanent Human Values’ to the women he taught at Sarah Lawrence University. It ended up getting him branded as a Nazi by some truly sadistic government mouthpieces in the media. In any event we have always been preparing for or engaged in war as I see it.

4. I recall having read that address, it was magnificent and should be required reading for everyone and covered before every movement of government towards more conflict. But surely you aren’t saying that all history is a lie, are you? Campbell didn’t go that far.

No, of course not. There are always lots of facts presented along with dates and data that can boggle the mind of a good statistician. Mark Twain knew a lot about ‘lies, damn lies and statistics’ though.

5. Yes, and we recently saw how the standard operating procedure of passing the buck or Hide the Ball worked on the cover-up of the real reason we invaded Iraq and all that weapons of mass destruction - didn’t we? But let’s get into the Great Pyramid which you write volumes about. You make the point that the ‘fit’ of the rocks or blocks can’t be explained by the scholars who say Egyptians built it as some sort of make-work program now that the slaves fiction has been thoroughly disproven due to artifacts. In fact you have built a rather intricate charge of a conspiracy to destroy and lie about these things to the point of blaming WGBH and the video called ‘This Old Pyramid’. Can you substantiate these charges for my listeners?

I do, but it isn’t done in a sound byte. Let me say this though. I saw a letter from David Suzuki of ‘The Nature of Things’ in response to formal factual presentations from Davidovits and Morris about how they used modern equipment with forklift trucks and hardened steel tools to make that puny Pyramid which they didn’t even have the guts to admit shifted in the sand. He noted he had not been given the footage or facts that showed these things. And when it comes to Hawass and his trotting out weird alien theories or theorists as if that proves he is open to alternatives - THAT is pure SPIN!

6. I found the part where Archaeology Magazine was printing articles saying the Sphinx and Pyramids were mere imitations of natural landforms a little bizarre. But that poured in place theory of Davidovits which you support doesn’t explain the ‘fit’ of the sarcophagus or the obelisks found in their quarries.

I support that as just one of the technologies they used and you are right it cannot explain a 1/150th inch tolerance in the lidless sarcophagus that never had any human remains in it. In fact no Giza Pyramid had any funerary purpose and no remains of humans have been found in them. The American Research Center in Egypt did use AMS accelerators to date biologics found inside the Pyramid in some places. These biologics like straw showed the Great Pyramid is 450 years older than the Step Pyramid which Egyptology says was built before the Great Pyramid.

7. Ok, I guess we can’t cover all the other possible technologies that you and the likes of Christopher Dunn have shown could have been used. You really do have a passionate stance on the matter of Hawass and the likes of Cayce the Masonic agent and his Foundation which paid to educate Hawass and Lehner though.

I surely do have issues with liars and the Bible Narrative which ultimately justifies Manifest Destiny and blames G-d or attributes things to aliens when man is responsible for all these things. National Geographic and other Egyptologists outside that cabal have provided me with lots of good reading and I share these perspectives with my readers.

8. But you carry on about Kelts and Phoenicians to the point that it is almost impossible to imagine they really were all over the earth with the Red-headed League of Megalith Builders making the hundreds of Pyramids. And some of the uses of the Earth Energy Grid they are built to enhance which are located or aligned with; are really TOO fantastic to accept for someone who has not studied all the sources you quote.

I know that, believe me. There are no simple or true black and white answers that you can answer tests with in order to get a better grade. There are lots of good questions and I think those questions lead to us challenging the current leadership about why we aren’t using free energy or Tesla Technology and many other things don’t you? As to Plato and the Atlantis fiction I now have genetics to support this real history. It shows white man was in the Americas as soon as he arrived in Europe and he may even have come to Northwest Europe from the Americas; before he arrived in Central Europe and Iberia or Spain. That was 30,000 years ago just shortly after the first white men (Kelts of the Caucasus) arrived in Casiberia.

9. Yes, I do see the corporate entities and names or other linguistic proofs of older scholars are soundly backed by genetics and the forensics like the cocaine from Peru in Egyptian mummies. But I am sure most people will have a hard time swallowing that their teachers have been so disingenuous.

My first wife and lifelong significant other is a teacher-leader and activist of some standing. I totally understand the difficulties they face. Kaoru Yamamoto does a good exposé on the testing industry and the lack of teaching thinking or a Joy of Learning in the Kuiper’s Social Science Encyclopedia or other articles he has written. Alfred North Whitehead gave an address at Harvard in about the same time Campbell was talking in New York to the ladies of Sarah Lawrence. He makes a good case for the kind of real education that should have been occurring as do many others since him. How can a teacher pierce the veils of propaganda and all the lies as well as baby-sit kids whose parents were never taught to teach in the first place? Is there anything more important to the future of humanity than breaking this Cycle of Violence where parents are allowed to train more deviates and dump all the same issues from generation to generation, as the system grinds down all individuality and aborts the soul?

10. Hey, I am the interviewer. I see what you mean but getting back to my question - why should we believe your history rather than the one we have been taught?

I ask people to consider the facts and do their own research or checking. I have the quotes from the sciences and data in the archaeological record which supports cell diffusion history - don’t I? Most reviews from readers certainly suggest that Diverse Druids was a major impact on their view of history.

11. You say that the builders of the Great Pyramid or ‘arch-tectons’ as the Septuagint calls the family of Jesus are still connected or part of what forces really govern us today. Yet you also seem very amenable to the true teaching of Jesus. Do you really think the Merovingians and Stuart or Hesse/Battenbergs are related to the Rothschilds?

It is funny how people have no difficulty with connecting the Hapsburgs with the De Medicis and Borgia but the Rothschilds are supposed to be different and were merely good financial types. Yes, I am certain the Rothschilds were passed the whole spy network and monopoly through the adopted son of the De Medicis that goes by the name St. Germain. This monopoly that the Templars once had, included secrets of esoterics and trade in the era of Solomon or Joseph of Arimathaea and probably before Melchizedek.

12. You must get a lot of people calling you a conspiracy theorist. Your assertions leads to a person having to think their whole history has been a mere puppet show and all the wars were arranged to de-populate and keep people busy rather than finding out what really is going on.

It is highly complex and yet well-orchestrated. The last 150 years have actually been worse than any other time in history when it comes to wars and what the noted journal The Economist says is ‘inhumane bureaucracy’, which they call ‘a Napoleonic legacy’. His ‘vision’ and reason for going to the Great Pyramid should be made into a movie.

13. But he never told people what he saw and you are just speculating, aren’t you?

Yes, but he was terrified and there are others who have been similarly impacted by some constructs they saw. If you read my book Hitler vs. Frabato and ‘The Charm of Making’ I think you might agree my insight or speculation has some validity.
