Maya @ 20:12 Dr Hameroff on Consciousness
Thanks Maya. That stuff is waaaaaaaaaay over my head. I watched some of it but found I was struggling for comprehension so chose not to fall down a rabbit hole I might get lost in and not find my way back out of. Congrats to you if you can understand that one. Nice visiting with you today. :o) Silverngold

The Film on Vaccines Robert De Niro Won’t Let His Audience See. Good Rant shows the harm done by suppression.
Breaking…
by Jon Rappoport
March 27, 2016
(To read about Jon’s mega-collection, Power Outside The Matrix, click here.)
Robert De Niro, who has a child with autism, was going to personally introduce the film, Vaxxed, to the audience at his Tribeca Film Festival in New York.
He thought the film was important. It makes a case for a connection between vaccines and autism.
Then, an uproar ensued, pressure was brought to bear, and De Niro decided to cancel the screening at his festival.
Hello, goodbye.
One of the angles used to pressure him? People might agree with the film’s content and decide not vaccinate their children, or they might decide to space the vaccines out over a longer period of time. This horrible act might endanger lives. It might kill children.
Therefore, don’t let people see the film. Don’t let them be contaminated. Don’t let them make up their own minds. Don’t let them have access to information. You see, the parents themselves are children wandering in the wilderness, with no ability to analyze information. They must defer to the experts. They mustn’t listen to other voices. They mustn’t be permitted to think.
Free speech? Never, ever heard of it.
You see, this is Science. Only certain people know what science says or means. They are the chosen few in the palace. They decide for the rest of us. They are the little gods and the censors.
I don’t know about you, but I’m sick and tired of this bullshit.
On big screens all over the country, you can put up movies depicting people being torn limb from limb, drowning in their own blood, you can put up movies with panting soft-porn money shots, you can put up movies that blow up half the world; but you can’t show a movie that questions the effects of vaccines.
That’s show biz, where the stars are co-opted on a daily basis, and if they move off the dime, they’re attacked in the press.
But so what?
Listen, Robert, you could have shown the film, and you could have laid on a live presentation afterwards, with speakers delivering both sides of the issue right there in the theater. You could have stood up and said you weren’t going to be bulldozed. You could have said Film itself is based on the sanctity of free speech and there was no way you were going to sacrifice that principle. You could have drawn a line in the sand. You could have parlayed your reputation and awards in the industry to make a point. You could have explained who pressured you and why. You could have refused to let the moment pass. You could have broken the back of censorship, and you could have enlisted the aid of a few of your famous friends, right up on stage, to back you up. You could have turned the whole thing around, because after all, you were just preparing to show a film. That’s what you were doing. With enough force behind your words (you know how to do that, don’t you?), you could have exposed the whole insane sham of Don’t Show a Film. You could have said, “This is not the Censored Tribeca Film Festival. That’s not the name of this event and it never will be.” You could have blown the doors apart. You could have gone live and done in public, for once, what you do on the screen. You could have hit the censors in their snake eyes and put them away. You could have gone on The View and Fallon and Kimmel and Oprah and made your case against the people who want to shut down free speech. And you know you could have scored a victory.
But you didn’t do that. You backed down.
It’s not too late. You can still fire up your courage and your outrage and show the film. It’s your festival. You’re the boss.
Do you realize the size of the rock you’re standing on? Do you know what the First Amendment really means?
So what if you’re shy in public. So what if you need a script?
I’ll give you a script. I’ll give you one. It’ll melt the spines of those arrogant cowards who want the public to obey and keep their mouths shut and submit to wall-to-wall surveillance and march all the way to their graves without a whimper in the land of the free and the home of the brave.
silverngold @ 19:47 Oh-oh! Now you pushed the “Consciousness” button!
My EEG friend and I have debated and studied that for a lifetime! One of the most outstanding concepts I have ever learned comes from an anaesthesiologist MD named Stuart Hameroff. He wondered what happened to ‘consciousness’ under anaesthesia and why it sometimes did not work on some people. Thus proceeded a life-long rabbit-hole of ‘quantum consciousness’ that borders into the metaphysical.
Dig into “Stuart Hameroff” if you want to learn more. You can start here:
Dr. Stuart Hameroff: Consciousness is More than Computation!
Warning!: This is a deep rabbit-hole that will challenge your world view.
Left handed here
After much fuss with my father, ended up writing lefty. Broke my wrist in third grade and switched to right. Stayed there writing . Now ambi but prefer left hand for most work.
While You Were Sleeping
For thousands of years, we’ve regarded sleep as nothing more than an annihilation of consciousness. But there is one compelling fact that has always stood in the way of that view.
Everything in your waking life is determined by your sleeping habits, from your learning ability to your eating habits to your health. This is a fascinating study.
Maya 13:43 LEFT Handedness
I resemble some of your comments, but certainly not all. My childhood was the early ’40’s. Father in the navy, mother working in a munitions factory in California. My sister (two years older to the day) and I living with our grandparents in Piedmont Oklahoma . At age 2 my grandparents decided I needed to become right handed, so they tied my left hand behind me for a few days so I would “learn” to use my right hand to eat and do other things. Instead of giving in to this “training” I just quit eating, climbed into bed and refused to do anything. I can still remember them forcing liquids down my throat but I was not about to eat on my own, no matter how good they tried to make it, so they finally gave up and figured I’d just have to remain a “retarded child”. By age 4 my sis and I were back living with our mom and new step dad in California and at age 5 I started kindergarten where my teacher again tried to change me to right handed, much to my embarrassment. Fortunately my mom learned of it and told the teacher to NEVER attempt that again, and she didn’t. But it did create a stigma which made me very insecure as I was then the object of ridicule by the class bullies, so I withdrew into myself and was not a good student.
Fortunately my new step dad became a State Park Ranger and was assigned to a campground at Lake Tahoe where I literally had a fresh start (thanks to my mom and new teacher). My teacher learned that I was a small part Cherokee Indian and used that to make me believe that I could do anything and everything better than others; excel in studies, excel in sports, etc. Also at that time I learned to love nature and have done so my entire life, having a care for all of Mother Natures wonders but little care for mans creations.
Ambidextrous? Yes in some things like baseball and golf, but probably because these sports required special equipment to be left handed, so since I wanted to play I played right handed.
But I owe it all to having such a wonderful and encouraging teacher (and mother) who made me believe I could do it. So I grew up believing I could and always tried my best to be the best, in sports, in studies, in music, in business, and later as a husband and father.
IQ?, well maybe not quite to the Mensa status. In climbing the corporate ladder I had to undergo several psychological evaluations and they always came up IQ= low superior, FWIW. LOL!!! I am blessed (cursed?) with a wife that tests over 140, and one daughter over 160 and the other very close to my IQ and an extremely talented and beautiful artist and dancer…….. but none of them are left handed and all border on being ambidextrous.
The successes I’ve had, and they have been many, I feel I owe to those who encouraged me along the way, and my favorite sayings are “Anything works if you do”, and “The harder I work, the luckier I get”.
Unfortunately, because of all the above I also seem to “see” things others can’t, don’t, or won’t, so these last few years I have also adopted “what is seen cannot be unseen”, and it appears that one sure pisses off a lot of people. LOL!!! All The Best From Silverngold
My boss got me a huge pin-button of this Skip Morrow cartoon
I wore it proudly at work for weeks!
Aguila @ 15:05
Ouch! Yeah, that was the biggest trauma growing up Left-handed. One learns to fold the wrist around above the penmanship… otherwise your hand smears what you have just written. But the biggest pain was those damn right-armed chair-desks used in so many colleges and schools that you slide into from the left (open) side. There is no arm support on the left side, so you have to learn to write with an upside-down wrist and floating arm with no elbow support. It is tiring.
But even I smile when I see another lefty writing… it looks odd even to me! 🙂
Hire the Left-Handed
It’s fun to watch them write! 
Maya @ 13:53 Thanks for the pic
That looks like the time share condo we stayed in the last time we were in Kauai . :o)
I have a couple comments on your 13:43 post, but later. First I must run some errands.

This is what a hundred grand gets you in Hawaii… 🙂
Left Handedness
I’m a ‘lefty’ also. I remember learning to write the alphabet at home from my mom before first grade. I was trying it with both hands. I remember asking mom which hand I should use, and she told me to use which ever one feels best. I settled on my left hand. (Mom was progressive and ‘allowing’ back in 1950.) I eat left, but I bat and golf (poorly) right-handed, so there is an element of ambidexterity there. I have met many native Japanese who were ‘changed’ at childhood, forced to write right-handed. (Japanese society is ‘homogenized’ by strict training. They have a saying that ‘the nail that sticks out gets hammered flat’ to explain this. Many of these ‘forced change’ people have trouble with dyslexia also) But in the mostly Asian and very ‘allowing’ culture of Aloha I found in Hawaii, I have met more left-handed people than I have experienced anywhere else.
A childhood schoolmate that I still keep in frequent touch with became interested in consciousness and the brain. He became a skilled EEG (brainwave) tech that tells the brain surgeons where to operate. We have shared many stories and observations over a lifetime. They have discovered that lefties and ambidextrous people have a larger bundle of nerves connecting the left and right hemispheres of the brain. Typically the mechanical, motor drive functions are concentrated in one side, and the subconscious or dreaming side of the brain is the other side. People who are ‘left’ are typically more prone to ambidextrous because the two halves of the brain are able to better communicate between the halves. The result is that the ‘dreaming’ side is able to translate things into motor-skill functions on the mechanical side of the brain. We are better able to use both halves of the brain more effectively. This results in our being able to score higher on IQ and intelligence tests. Einstein was left-handed.
The most extreme person I ever met was a fellow tech & engineer type who had a problem with identity theft… someone forged his checks. So he changed his signature on his bank records. He would write his name in script… backwards. You could hold the check up to a mirror and read the perfect script of his name. The stunning part was that he could do this with EITHER hand… it made no difference to him. He was also extremely dyslexic and had to carefully manage that, because left-right symmetry was the same to him. I remember him wiring a complex terminal block of 25 wires that were color-coded, but he wired it from right-to-left instead of the other way. Perfect color order… just completely backwards… and he didn’t realize it until I pointed it out to him. Humorously he just shrugged and asked “what’s the difference?” I had to swat him and make him do it over! He’s still a good friend, living in another country now, and we keep in touch. He is one of the most interesting ‘brains’ I have known in a lifetime.
I have long known that I think and perceive things differently than most people. It used to frustrate me that people could not see or understand what was completely obvious to me. I was never told my IQ scores in school. But a self-test that I tried (and sloppily, by my own estimate) revealed to me that I have a low-genius level IQ. But I have never considered myself arrogantly ‘superior’ to others…. I felt I was just ‘different’.

I just don’t know what to believe anymore; your source may be correct…on the other hand, my source may be correct. So to be safe, a good supply of guns and ammo is the best bet.
Maya @ 12:50 Hiya Maya
I agree with what you said and have also seen the photo in question with close to that explanation. I also don’t believe the picture they showed a couple times with tic tac toe being played in the sky…(lol) …..but I do believe the overall content to be very close to the truth, especially since there has been MASSIVE efforts to disguise, discredit, and destroy the credibility of anyone and everyone who tries to expose what is being done. Thanks for voicing your views, and all the Best from ……Silverngold
PS: When are you gonna post those pictures of your little grass shack??
Being left handed I found this to be interesting trivia.
Makes me wonder how many “lefties” are in the goldbug community. Anybody care to disclose this?? If there is a high number, maybe that is why we march to our own drum?? I’ll start it with Silverngold. Any others??
Which Presidents Were Left Handed?
Determining which presidents were left handed is a difficult task because during the 18th and 19th century, left handedness was considered a disability. Parents and teachers fought to eradicate any signs of left handedness in their children and students, and the “condition” rarely lasted beyond childhood.
Therefore, if any presidents were left handed before the 20th century, we may never know because they may have been forced to give up their natural instincts at a young age. Examining the presidents that were left handed reveals interesting connections between being a leftie and becoming president.
Left Handed Presidents
Although determining which presidents were left handed before the 20th century is a difficult, if not impossible, task.
James Garfield
There are reasons to suggest that James Garfield was lefthanded. Popular stories have it that he was able to write Latin with his right hand and Greek with his left hand at the same time.
Therefore, as far as records are able to tell, James Garfield was the first left handed president of the United States. Unfortunately, in addition to being one of the minority of left handed presidents, Garfield was also one of the four presidents who was assassinated.
Herbert Hoover
The next proof that we have of a left handed president was Herbert Hoover, who served from 1929-1933. Most known for his efforts to relieve the country of the problems of the Great Depression, Hoover, in fact, failed in attempts to aid the United States and wound up losing the 1932 election as a result.
Gerald Ford
Serving from 1974 to 1977, Ford was the first person to serve as both vice president and president, but to not be elected into either of those positions. He became vice president under the terms of the 25th Amendment to the Constitution and then become president when Richard Nixon resigned.
George H.W. Bush
The elder Bush is perhaps best remembered for his foreign policy during his time in office. He oversaw military activity in both Panama and the Persian Gulf, and he saw both the collapse of the Soviet Union and the Berlin Wall. Bush is also the last president to have been a veteran of World War II.
Bill Clinton
Defeating Bush in the 1992 election, some may think that Clinton will only be thought of for the infamous sex scandal or his impeachment that was eventually acquitted. However, when Clinton left office in 2001, he received an approval rating of 66%, which was the highest rating of any president since World War II.
Barack Obama
Currently serving the United States is yet another leftie, Barack Obama. During his time as president, he has signed both the American Recovery and Reinstatement Act and the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. He was named the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize laureate on October 8, 2009.
Presidents Who Were Ambidextrous
At least three presidents have been given the title of “ambidextrous,” meaning they can use both hands to write. Therefore, James Garfield is one of them. The other two are Harry S. Truman and Ronald Reagan. Reagan, in fact, was reported to be totally left handed; however, he was forced at an early age to switch, quite possibly because of the old beliefs that left handedness was a disability.
Notable Trends
Notice anything unusual about the above list? While tracing the left handedness of presidents past the 20th century is rather difficult, in the recent years an overwhelming number of the country’s leaders have been lefties.
Of the country’s last 14 presidents, seven have been either left handed or ambidextrous, making for 50%. Estimates for the number of right handed people in the world range from 75% to 90%. In either case, the number of presidents who were lefties does not match those statistics.
According to geneticist Amar Klar, Ph.D., at the National Cancer Institute who studied the issue, many Nobel Prize winners, artists, and writers are left handed, thereby indicating that lefties may indeed have a broader ability of thought. He also states that people who are either ambidextrous or left-handed are generally able to engage in more intense and complicated thought.

silverngold @ 10:42
Now I’m not saying Chemtrail spraying isn’t real… personally, from looking at the criss-crossed trails in the sky that defy normal flight path patterns I believe there IS something nefarious going on… BUT…
That freeze-frame of the video showing those tanks and hoses in the cabin of a passenger jet is a red herring. I had seen that some time back, and it was eventually exposed (I don’t have a reference) as a Boeing certification flight testing where they load the tanks with water to simulate the weight of a passenger loaded cabin floor. Then they pump the water around in various configurations to simulate loading the cabin all to one side, or the other side, and front-to-back loading configurations while in-flight to test the extreme limits of cabin loading on the flight stability of the aircraft. And with occam’s razor, THAT explanation makes much more sense than assuming those tanks are loaded with spray chemicals! If they were going to spray large volumes into the atmosphere they would likely install one or more large tanks, or use the wing fuel bladders to carry the stuff.
Large passenger jets have fuel spray nozzles at the wingtips for emergency use to dump fuel before landing, to reduce weight. I saw this personally years ago after taking off from Honolulu in a 747 that experienced an engine problem. The pilot announced that we would have to return to the airport to land, but first we were going to ‘dump fuel’ to reduce the landing weight of the fully laden 747 fuel tanks. We went out over the ocean and he told us there would be fuel spraying from the wingtips, but not to worry. We still had three good engines, and after half an hour of flying and spraying fuel over the ocean we returned and landed OK. If someone wanted to spray chemtrails, this would be the most likely scenario of loading the outermost wing tanks with the stuff (reserving one inner tank for flight fuel) and use the existing nozzles and valves to spray the stuff into the atmosphere.
Just my AI filters at work. 🙂

silver rider @ 6:09 Truth or Fiction
My question is: Is Truth or Fiction…..truth…..or fiction?? Makes one wonder. They state how the firearms companies have been going down hill and that is why they are consolidating, and yet all we hear is how firearm sales are skyrocketing and have never been so good. then they throw in some BULLSHIT about the Sandy Hook shootings (that never happened) and lawsuits against a gun manufacturer because their gun was involved??? Something does not compute!! Sounds more like a disinformation fiction by the Obama administration to me!! Just Saying!
God I hope so!
Could There Be A Coup In Turkey?
Submitted by Michael Rubin, orignially published at American Enterprise Institute
The situation in Turkey is bad and getting worse. It’s not just the deterioration in security amidst a wave of terrorism. Public debt might be stable, but private debt is out-of-control, the tourism sector is in free-fall, and the decline in the currency has impacted every citizen’s buying power. There is a broad sense, election results notwithstanding, that President Recep Tayyip Erdogan is out-of-control. He is imprisoning opponents, seizing newspapers left and right, and building palaces at the rate of a mad sultan or aspiring caliph. In recent weeks, he has once again threatened to dissolve the constitutional court. Corruption is rife. His son Bilal reportedly fled Italy on a forged Saudi diplomatic passport as the Italian police closed in on him in an alleged money laundering scandal. His outbursts are raising eyebrows both in Turkey and abroad. Even members of his ruling party whisper about his increasing paranoia which, according to some Turkish officials, has gotten so bad that he seeks to install anti-aircraft missiles at his palace to prevent airborne men-in-black from targeting him in a snatch-and-grab operation.
