  1. Regarding the idea that the NSA stories might be part of a larger, deeper story…. The Snowden leaks do seem really well planned and his conversations are well thought out. It’s as if he has 3 people behind him helping him with international law, helping him write, helping him shape each day’s story that comes out in the Guardian. Maybe he’s the front man for somebody or some group that wants this stuff leaked. Or maybe he’s just brilliant on his own. So far, he has seemed one day ahead of the US media’s commentary, he seems to have little fear and he’s very nimble.

    Something I haven’t seen any commentary about is the fact that the Carlyle Group owns Booz-Allen. Doesn’t all this spying and data gathering give the Carlyle Group the ultimate insider information for whatever big deals they’re trying to do?? What do you think about this?

  2. Pondering the real estate discussion. My spouse and I, plan to downsize to No Mortgage but not just yet. I took a look at real estate tax costs to guess about inflation in the next 10 years. I learned these facts about our recent past as property owners. I compared 2005 to 2013.
    Property value increased 32%, property tax increased 20% (school tax has maintained 50-59% of our property tax in Texas), and my salary increased almost 40%. Somewhere around 2006-2008 my salary was around a living wage but inflation is erroding that.

    What does the real estate expert think the national norm will be in a few years regarding any forseen changes for property owners to pay more of the taxing district debt load payments, Texas uses a sales tax, no income tax, and districts pop up over time to tax more with less direct stakeholder input.

    Wondering about the meaning of this. Today MoveOn.org just sent out an official VOTE opinion poll to its members. The polling question, “Should MoveOn” support or oppose congressional authorization to use military force in Syria?

    This appears significant – that this organization, which largely helped to put the current president in office, is having this poll before casting their weight.

  4. Hi Catherine,
    I watched the documentary Moon Rising that you mentioned in one of your posts and noticed you posted some youtube material on a subject touched on in the film; space elevators. Then you posted some material on space elevators that I think needs a counter perspective. I believe Wall Thornhill and folks working on the Electric Universe Theory have addressed this topic in one of their Space News shorts that points to evidence of the presence of upper atmospheric lightning that indicates the existence of an electrical circuit between the sun and the earth. This would turn a space elevator into basically a giant lightning rod. Pretty compelling stuff.

    They also offer compelling alternative theories to the big bang, black holes, redshift, the sun, comets, and unexplainable cosmological phenomena. Excellent and approachable content with explanations that even a dummy like me can understand.

    Their documentaries have changed the way I look at the the world, the universe, history, and science in general. It’s complementary to the work of Rupert Sheldrake, Adam Trombly, Nick Begich, Judy Wood, Cliff Carnicom, Lynn McTaggart, William Tiller and others regarding the invisible energetic relationships surrounding us. I wonder if you could have one of your alt-science experts or someone in the Solari network could take a closer look at and vet what the EU scientists are working on and maybe bring Wal Thornhill onto a future Solari report.

    Best regards

  5. Are you familiar with Mae Brussell? In 1963 she was a housewife with 5 kids. She had serious questions about the JFK assassination, so she bought the entire Warren Commission Report when it came out. She came up with her own index, and began cross listing it with other material. She wound up having a radio show in the 70’s and 80’s. Most of the shows are on youtube. She talked quite a bit about what Richard Farrell and others and talking about now. Even back then she was talking about nazis in the government, ufo’s, Vatican politics, other assassinations, and so forth. She passed away in 1987.

    She seems to have discovered the ‘breakaway civilization’ long before anyone else. Her old shows remind me of some of your current ones. Please take a look at her material.
