Quoting: Seer777 Do you have any memories of how she treated me? Why should I allow her to continue here? I am aware of that. That is why I made this thread. The point is, I was directly targeted by her and for years. I wasn't the only one either. Muse has a 'track record' many here know of. I recall, as we all been through much. Why should you allow her, because she is part of the " working together". Hopefully, we all work together? Wasn't she awful to you too at times? Do you think she is suddenly different than she was? I asked you out of respect and our friendship, it is your thread and your choice. I won't ban her but if I get a whiff of 'old Muse' she's out. The abuse cycle is very real. So is the tendency to 'return to abusers'. Keep that in mind. You are my friend and I care about you, Wf. Difficulties strengthen the Mind as labor does the body... ~Seneca |

One of those spoke of in the Binder Material. 90% of the students that go through the Behavioral Science Units at Quantico are intuitive. That was my psychometric career testing. I did not go. I did not want to work for a company that would, one day, get involved with turning the field of behavioral science statistics into a tool to manipulate human consciousness. I saw. That was thirty years ago. I saw while sitting in front of a mainframe computer when they were black backgrounds with green. I saw how the null hypothesis could be manipulated. I saw how this could alter human consciousness as a means of control. I saw then before it ever happened. Before it went online. I saw. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 69463594 This is my track record.

Fancypantz User ID: 71884387 United States 03/30/2016 02:09 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Speaking of alien dna, lol Quoting: Fancypantz [link to www.archaeology.org] In a new genetic study of 2,500 people from around the world, biologists from the University of Michigan and Tufts University have found nineteen new pieces of DNA left in the genetic code by viruses that infected human ancestors hundreds of thousands of years ago. According to a University of Michigan press release, the team even found one stretch of DNA in about 50 of the people studied that contains the full genetic code for an entire virus, which might give scientists the tools to study an ancient viral epidemic. “These are remnants of ancient events that have not been fixed in the population as a whole, but rather happened in the ancestors of some people alive today,” said University of Michigan geneticist Jeffrey Kidd. To read more about ancient genetic studies, go to “Denisovan DNA.” Interesting tundra biome came up last night. Denisovan is genome of a person who lived in Siberian cave. Tundra biomes are 20% of earth. [link to en.wikipedia.org (secure)] In physical geography, tundra is a type of biome where the tree growth is hindered by low temperatures and short growing seasons. The term tundra comes through Russian (tûndra) from the Kildin Sami word tūndâr "uplands", "treeless mountain tract".[1] There are three types of tundra: arctic tundra,[2] alpine tundra,[2] and Antarctic tundra.[3] In tundra, the vegetation is composed of dwarf shrubs, sedges and grasses, mosses, and lichens. Scattered trees grow in some tundra regions. The ecotone (or ecological boundary region) between the tundra and the forest is known as the tree line or timberline. I think they say the arctic tundra is the youngest biome. This came up and is a possibility, splash saltation, lol [link to www.thunderbolts.info] The Yukon [link to en.wikipedia.org (secure)] At 5,959 m (19,551 ft), Yukon's Mount Logan, in Kluane National Park and Reserve, is the highest mountain in Canada and the second-highest on the North American continent (after Denali in the U.S. state of Alaska). Most of Yukon has a Subarctic climate, characterized by long cold winters and brief warm summers. The Arctic Ocean coast has a tundra climate. Long before the arrival of Europeans, central and southern Yukon was populated by First Nations people, and the area escaped glaciation. Sites of archeological significance in Yukon hold some of the earliest evidence of the presence of human occupation in North America.[8] The sites safeguard the history of the first people and the earliest First Nations of the Yukon.[8] The volcanic eruption of Mount Churchill in approximately 800 AD in the U.S. state of Alaska blanketed southern Yukon with a layer of ash which can still be seen along the Klondike Highway and forms part of the oral tradition of First Nations peoples in Yukon and further south in Canada. Coastal and inland First Nations had extensive trading networks. Can i just do a shameless bump from a few days ago |

Shaktipat can be transmitted with a sacred word or mantra, or by a look, thought or touch – the last usually to the ajna chakra or third eye of the recipient. Saktipat is considered an act of grace (anugraha) on the part of the guru or the divine. It cannot be imposed by force, nor can a receiver make it happen.
