The body of a missing SIU student named Pravin Varughese has been discovered in the woods not far from the Southern Illinois University campus in Carbondale, Illinois. A new update on this tragic story reveals that police authorities do not suspect that foul play is involved in his death, and that he may have frozen to death, as evidenced by the freezing conditions outside this week and Varughese found only wearing light clothes. In addition, his body's location site has also been made public this morning: the 1400 block of Carbondale's own East Main Street. Web Pro News provides the update to this recent find this Wednesday, Feb. 19, 2014, and the devastation it has left in its wake for the school community and Varughese's loved ones.
For those who knew Pravin Varughese, the sadness in finding the body of the missing SIU student is too difficult to describe. According to the new report, many people were still hoping that the 19-year-old Varughese was only missing and not dead, even though the young man had not been to any of his classes or spotted on campus in over a week.
While anyone familiar with Carbondale knows it is a rather large and sprawling area, literally hundreds of people — family, friends, and students — joined in the recent search for Pravin Varughese, covering much of Southern Illinois University campus and beyond in the hopes of finding him. The now grieving family had even offered a $15,000 reward for any people willing or able to provide clues that might lead to the discovery of the missing SIU student.
Tragically, the 19-year-old male was discovered dead this Tuesday morning in a heavily wooded area, not far from the 1400 block of East Main Street in Carbondale. Updates on his finding reveal that there was no visible evidence of foul play to his cold body, leading officials to believe he had frozen to death in the woods.
Wrote one devastated family member on the Facebook page made for the missing young man once his body was found:
"On behalf of our family, we wanted to thank you all for your kind words, endless support and prayers for Pravin. Authorities have confirmed this morning that they have found his body. We ask that you continue to keep Pravin's parents and sisters in your prayers as we go through this difficult time and mourn the loss of a beloved son, brother, grandson, nephew, cousin & friend."
The precise cause of death surrounding the missing SIU student has not been confirmed by the local county's medical examiner's office. However, police authorities are fairly certain that the cause was freezing to death — exposure to the frigid temperatures and cold winds outside. One of the last witnesses to see Pravin Varughese before he vanished said he only was wearing light clothing and failed to have a winter jacket on. It is believed that he got lost in the woods overnight last week, and the freezing conditions took their toll.
Foul play is not suspected in this case, though the updated report also announces that a full autopsy and toxicology report is already underway for Varughese. It is expected that the body's examination will yield a certain cause of death by either Wednesday or Thursday at the latest.
Writes one grieving friend on Twitter:
"This brings me to tears. Please keep Pravin and his loved ones in your prayers. #PrayforPravin"

Tony Scott, the British director of high-octane movies including Top Gun and Beverly Hills Cop 2 has died after jumping from a bridge in Los Angeles.
The Los Angeles County coroner's office is investigating his death as a possible suicide. Witnesses reported seeing a man jump from the Vincent Thomas Bridge spanning San Pedro and Terminal Island in Los Angeles Harbour at around 12.35pm. His body was found by police divers four hours later. A list of contact details was found in his car and a suicide note was found at the director's office.
The brother of the equally famous director Ridley was born in North Shields and could reasonably claim to be the best action movie director of all time with fast paced and stylish thrillers like Crimson Tide, Enemy of the State, True Romance and Man on Fire on his CV alongside the hugely successful Top Gun. Hollywood rumours suggested he was in talks with Tom Cruise to make another Top Gun movie in recent months. He had recently produced brother Ridley's sci fi blockbuster Prometheus and he'd just wrapped filming on Out of the Furnace, starring Christian Bale, which is due to be released next year.
Scott was married to Donna Scott and the couple had twin boys, Frank and Max.

Aug 5, 2012
By Tom Weber
CARBONDALE, IL - Saluki senior defensive end Eze Obiora didn't think very much of football when he was growing up in Manchester, England. He had played rugby since the age of nine and didn't watch his first football game on TV until he was a junior in high school.
"I started watching American football and I thought, what are they doing in the huddle?" he laughed. "I wondered what they were saying -- are they giving each other a pep talk or something?"
One day Obiora's dad, Edward, suggested his son try playing football in the United States as a way to earn a college scholarship. His dad had friends in Indiana, so Obiora applied to Purdue and Notre Dame with the intention of walking on to the football team.
After settling on Purdue, Obiora arrived in West Lafayette, Ind., in the fall of 2008. He didn't know anybody, and it was obvious to the Purdue coaches that he knew little about football, either. At 6-foot-3 and 240 pounds, he had a remarkable combination of size, power and speed. Those skills were of little use, though, without even a basic understanding of the sport.
Obiora wanted to be a running back, but the coaches made him an outside linebacker. He soon discovered there were few similarities between rugby and football.
"In football, every step you take is analyzed," he said. "Football is more scientific."
He described his freshman year as discouraging, saying "there were times when it was almost over, and I thought I would go home without a scholarship."
Finances became his primary concern. Purdue had no plans to offer him a scholarship, and his parents were having financial difficulty back home.
"My parents didn't have money to pay for my school fees, and I didn't have a scholarship, and then I was on academic probation," Obiora explained. "I didn't know what to do. I didn't have anything. I didn't even have money for a ride to leave Purdue."
During his redshirt freshman year, Obiora played middle linebacker at Dupage. Then he was moved to defensive end as a sophomore, where things started to click. His elite speed -- he runs a 4.7 40 -- wreaked havoc on offenses. Obiora recorded a whopping 14 sacks his sophomore year and was named All-Conference.
"I would pass rush on every play because I didn't know what the heck I was doing," he admitted. "Eventually, I calmed down and started to learn."
His raw ability caught the eye of Southern's coaching staff, which offered him a scholarship in 2011. He played in every game last year, and while he flashed big-play ability, his stats (16 tackles, 2.5 tackles for loss, one sack) were modest.
"I don't think I really did anything last year -- I was humbled," he said. "I thought I was the big guy on campus because I had gotten a scholarship. I had come from nothing."
Part of his lack of production was due to playing behind established veteran Chance Coda. Also, Obiora was a 4-3 end at Dupage, and SIU's 3-4 system is more complex.
Last spring, Obiora seized the starting defensive end job, though, and he expects to put up big numbers as a senior.
"My philosophy on the field is to have no mercy," he said. "It's not a game to me."
He's also studied the history of Saluki Football and wants to reverse the fortunes of a program that has missed the playoffs the last two years.
"The school has been in a slump for a little while," he said. "We want to take Southern back to the days when they won trophies. We want to be considered like the people who made a change."
Obiora, who was born in Nigeria and hopes to live in the U.S. after he graduates, marvels at how far he's come in the past four years.
"I just believe that God has helped me through everything," he said.

The programme in four African nations aims to enable their armies to combat terrorists, The New York Times reports.
13:01, UK, Tuesday 27 May 2014
The US is training anti-terrorism commandos in African countries to bolster their fight against al Qaeda associates, The New York Times has reported.
According to the newspaper, the secretive programme targets units in Libya, Niger, Mauritania and Mali.
The programme, launched last year, involves members of elite US groups such as the Army's Green Berets and Delta Force.
The report comes on the eve of what is expected to be a major foreign policy speech by President Barack Obama on Wednesday at the Military Academy at West Point.
The training programme aims to help the four states develop the capability of fighting al Qaeda affiliates and other terrorist groups on their soil.
But it has already encountered some problems, the report said.
For example in Libya, which has been marred by chaos since the 2011 overthrow of Muammar Gaddafi, an initial effort had to be suspended after equipment was stolen.
US trainers must also carefully screen prospective trainees to aver the risk of shifting allegiances.
The countries selected have battled insurgents.
In Mali, al Qaeda's North African arm AQIM seized power in the north in 2012, and thousands of French troops intervened last year to prevent the Islamists from extending their reach further south.
American forces have trained armies in the past, such as in Afghanistan.
The US is also co-operating with Nigeria in efforts to rescue more than 200 schoolgirls who have been kidnapped by the Islamist group Boko Haram.
Nigeria has claimed that the military knows where the schoolgirls are, but has ruled out using force to rescue them.

Current Projects Include:
More about the LCP
The Lutheran Church in the Philippines (LCP) is one of the oldest partner churches of the LCMS and ELCA. It has 92 churches, many mission stations, 28 ordained pastors and a large number of lay leaders. LCMS World Mission works with the LCP to share the Gospel message through educational seminars for local pastors and expanded church planting efforts. Your support is needed to fund these projects as well as general administrative costs to continue work in the country, facilitate ministries, and provide for research and planning of additional ministry opportunities.
Currently, the LCP is seeking to build capacity so that it will be able to respond to and engage the mission opportunities before them, and therefore be able to reach its Ablaze! goals of planting 100 new congregations and training hundreds of lay evangelists by the 500th anniversary of the Reformation in 2017.

JaimaLeal-Anya & Karriem Ali
"The Physician and the Ex-Priest"
When minds collide for over 5 hours they end up on BTO! So we have Jaime and Karriem here to share their wonderful conversations with you. With a twist they share their ideas on religion, spirituality, ancient wisdom, science, and medicine. It's fun and with a light heart and they have a lot in common. The funny part is that Jaime wasn't a priest and Karriem wasn't a physician! They weren't?? ...Just settle in, pour a glass of wine and listen. Turns out that religion and medicine have the same dogma. The ancient wisdom that Ramtha explains about God is in you and God is your observer. The prime experimenter and experiencer of reality. Nature is a great teacher when you have a mind that is equal to nature. The similarities of doctors and priests, and the concept of the central dogma of molecular biology about DNA. Social hierarchy and accepting someone's point of view. An important moment in the trial of Jesus and what is the truth? Dogma becomes personal truth and closed minded. The things we accept as truth when we really don't know. There are a lot of assumptions and very little experience. Spirituality is really being aware. Ramtha's teaching in the field of 2003. We invite our beautiful audience to share with us your thoughts and questions blooming our there, and let us know if you want more of these special conversations.
Here is the video they spoke of: RSA Animate - The Divided Brain from a lecture by Iain McGilchrist. Produced by Abi Stephenson, RSA.

"Little Father"
Excited that the Ramtha book in English comes on March 22nd, then about another important book "The Elixir of Love" the seven faces of love from the first seal to a Master. And we learn how he became the editor of Ramtha's books for JZK Publishing in 2000 which he did for over 10 years. How he made the books readable from numerous teachings, and the words come alive. Work that has brought him such joy and knowledge, a delightful story! The seven words of inspiration from the Ram which he reads from the new book, 'The Mind Gladiators of The Future'. He is now working on the 2nd book, about the subconscious mind, being masters of time, and conquering our emotions. "We have to transcend our personal tragedy and blindness by waking up." The spiral of evolution and unfolding like nature. The Masters' key of focus and manifesting. The sacred chamber, and the state of mind we need to be able to be timeless, changing timelines, and remembering the future. Ram says, "What can be done backwards in consciousness can be done forward in consciousness, you are the Gods, the creators of reality." So how can we remember the future? It's outside of what we have been, we want to change and become something new. And what Ramtha said about the mastery of the Beast.
February 19th, 2013
"Ramtha: The Mind Gladiators of the Future"
That is the title of the Ramtha's book in Spanish and now in English, and the title Jaime gave to this collection of Ramtha's teachings in book form, is "The North Star Ram". Jaime is excited because today he sent the English version of the book to print! Today's question is really a riddle that Ramtha presents to us about manifestation, and why we don't manifest what we want. "The present has been the recycling of the past over and over and it's boring and we want something different, we want something new." So why does it seem we don't manifest what we want? Jaime talks about this and how science backs up Ramtha's teachings, Ramtha's riddle, and the key is focus to find the God you are. Have you contemplated something new recently? Our level of acceptance and it's hierarchy of what is easy and what is hard to manifest, and the effect of religion on people. And how to get rid of our little grid, all this is in Ramtha's book. The golden hour review of the day and how we get our power back, or not; where we barely make it. We have a history in our past that needs to turn into wisdom. Jaime reads some excerpts of the book. Manifesting the path to God, it's the middle path outside of polarity. It's about being the observer and creating from the Void: "No thing materially All things potentially"

"The Garden of Fantastic Realism"
Ramtha The Mind Gladiators Of The Future - The Unusual Story of How to Master Time, Conquer One's Self, and Reach Immortality. This is the English version of the Spanish book under 'Hun Nal Ye Publishing', created last year by Jaime, he describes the name and its beautiful meaning. What Jaime loves about 2013, "It's like open skies, an open ocean, for us to plant whatever we want to see in it and remember we choose what to create. So create a wonderful 2013! 2012 was an extraordinary year for change". Jaime gives a preview of the book and what a great time for us to understand timelines and how we create them, and what it takes to become a Master. The book will be accessible to all, it's more than a book, it is an experience. The English version will hopefully be sent to print by the end of this month. This will help us with our journey, and there will be more to come. "It is my extreme pleasure to be able to dedicate my life to this work." He talks about the Renascence and the similar era we are in now. The courage during the inquisition, the concept of immortality, the immortal gene, telomeres, it's not a myth, it is real. It's about humans waking up, and what Ramtha's teachings may be leading us to.
July 10th, 2012
"The Book of Revelations"
Jaime continues on the Book of the Dead and the 'ominous' Book of Revelations of St. John the Divine. We have fire and brimstone, hell and heaven, the elect, the ones to be saved and the ones to be destroyed by fire, visions that have created quite an amazing culture! The rapture and all the people will be judged. When Jaime was a kid 2000 was the year for the final judgment where all this was to happen, but 2000 came and went. Now we find that many prophecies about 2012 came from the Book of Revelations. Did John the Divine really mean the final judgment in the way Christianity and Hollywood portrays it, or is it something else entirely? "We all want change and the message is changing." Jaime explores the elements of the Book of Revelations, the vision of John, number 666, what is the judgment about, seven angels seven Seals? Connections in recurring themes are explored, the Book of Life and revealing what the secret scrolls contain. We find the very interesting correlations with the seven angels and the seven seals. The greatest times for Gnostics when it was in fashion, and how Gnosticism is perceived today. Even though Christians wouldn't agree, Jaime points out how this book is about reincarnation! "We can understand that simply thanks to Ramtha." The first sentence of Genesis describes God as creator and the method for creating reality with the brain. So is it really about all these prophecies or about personal change and opening of all seven Seals? "We better hurry up and start owning those demons revealing them to ourselves, not for others, and nor to judge one another!"
June 7th, 2012
"The Book of the Dead"
Ancient wisdom and what 2012 is about for us, we are all on this journey together. The search for answers and what a difference it makes to find Ramtha's school. The Egyptian Book of the Dead and what is the meaning of the final judgement really, that many Christians believe is the rapture? All of this superstition built on the these ancient texts, maybe the meanings of these things are very different from that. For Jaime it is fascinating to have a more complete vision from ancient history and up to today. How things may change if a Christian right is elected. The original Book of the Dead was not a book, it was in hieroglyphs, peasants could understand the pictures. This visual was later robbed from them starting with Jehovah. Weighing the heart against a feather, the judgment in the afterlife, and the tool of imagination for the spirit. The legacy of Christianity, pleasing God or burn in hell. The freedom of nature and knowing we are part of it, all of it, space and galaxies are nature, the spirit is wild and free. There is so much to share on this that there will be part 2 on the Book of Revelations next time.
May 8th, 2012
"Our Mirrors & Synchronicity; What are They Telling Us?"
Jaime shares his profound contemplations on the journey of the Great Work and begins with the veils coming down in 2012, our words come back to us and we see its reflection. "2012 is the year of initiation where we get to eat our words!" The school is about life and living it through experience, and seeing that reflection in the mirror. That is the topic today, the mirror effect that we get everywhere we go, we can't escape ourselves. The beauty of nature and the harsh attack on her, there's always hope, there's always life. Nature has to be the best reflection we have. The cathedrals built in the middle ages mimicked nature. Synchronicities are magic when they happen, and his recent interview with a leading psychologist on synchronic events for SC magazine. What are we seeing in all these reflections and what are they saying to us? Part of the ancient wisdom of all time is that the world is illusion, why do they say that? Is there really only one electron doing everything everywhere? Who is this one electron? And other mind-set provoking subjects. Waking up to the observer, the divine quality! That is what Jaime's book is all about on "The Secret of the Spanish Mystics" who knew about the observer and could levitate and bio-locate. Now how did they do that! What is the journey of finally lifting your head up above your doom and gloom, victimization, your lack... what is the journey of waking up? Synchronicities are not from the past, they are gifts from our spirit, divine intervention that came from our future. Seeing it at the moment they occur, that is the fun adventure!
November 29th, 2011
"Time Line Shifts and The Great Work"
Fascinating ideas, contemplations, and more we've been learning lately from Ramtha. The disciplines are our proof and how they can be applied in a myriad of ways. Experiencing the knowledge inspirers us until we become like a little child in a candy store! That's when the Great Work gets really exciting, when we self invite ourselves to be part of the magical experiences. How do we know when have shifted to another time line? The council of 12 and why Ramtha invited himself to be the 13th member-wonderful story! We are part of a large scale evolution, we are here for a reason. An example of doubt before the manifestation. You don't go head to head with your past to change it, you simply change, let the past go and be something new. More on creating your day, presence during the day, the golden hour, the mirror and the observer. Judging ourselves is being a victim, the key is the observer as it has no judgement, seeing ourselves as an outsider and the use of red wine with contemplation. His very lucid dream and heeding the warning, "the slightest observation that we apply has huge changes in our time lines." Next his most extraordinary interview with a top NASA Solar Astrophysicist in Super Consciousness magazine with his intriguing concept of the Sun's atmosphere and news on when the solar maximum is expected to peak (some may not like to hear this part) it's not in Dec 2012! Jaime says "This new knowledge changes everything and effects everyone!" Did 2012 have a time line shift? "We are going into real magic here, real extraordinary adventures!" Looking at recorded historical legends and now in our modern age of science. Last, his contemplations on the amazing potentials these things are offering us. So maybe enjoy a glass of wine while you listen to this hour!
October 13th, 2011
"The Secret of the Spanish Mystics"
...and the Creative Power of the Word" which completes the title of Jaime's first book. How he became so intrigued with the terrible times of the inquisition. An environment of great knowledge, yet those who had that knowledge feared for their lives. Among others of that time 500 years ago the centerpiece of Jaime's research is focused on Fray Luis de Leon who wrote a book during his 5 years in prison, a time of intense torture, and coding it so it would not be destroyed. Those people knew the language, the words of power, they knew that what we speak makes the divine manifest in the "I AM" world! Today the coded language is science which supports the message and the message is the same, we are divine because we are human and learning the art of waking up! This brought Jaime to the question, "Who is going to teach me Walking on water 101?" Then came Ramtha and the White book. Turns out the message is still the same, well true ancient knowledge isn't fickle it is constant, plus this time it comes with a very detailed road map from Ramtha. Saints allow a new vision to come in, it's for those who can hear, truth is immortal. The names of Christ and pruning your own tree, it's the alchemy for the metal of humanity, conquering the human's mixed feelings, and learning why words are so important. "Speak like a Christ and you are creating what you say." And the Song of Songs explained.
January 5th, 2010
"When Some Kind of Wonderful is on a Roll!"
Or shall we say a roller coaster! That is how it's been for Jaime since he was invited to speak along with many others (including George Green) at the Ecuador Conference last year. The response to his talk was receptive and exciting, and being the final speaker, Jaime was thrilled to be able to weave all the other talks on various subjects into his talk of RSE, its knowledge & disciplines that brings the knowledge into our reality. He so enjoyed having that outlet to express what he has learned, that he focused on more of that ...however it was to be. Then JZ invited him to become an RSE teacher for South America, something totally unexpected! The magic continues as he attends his first teacher's meeting with Ramtha, awesome, who told them all they had to master the cards before 2010 to remain teachers, and Jaime had three days to prepare to go to Columbia to teach his first event, great stories. Any spare time was devoted to focusing on the cards in airplanes, airports, everywhere! "Ramtha wants people doing the Work and living it, not just learning philosophy, and telling all who ask that they also can do it. I didn't understand the gravity of this until teaching in Columbia." Then his awesome experience demonstrating seeing the cards at RSE with 1000 people watching, and all that existed for him was his focus on those cards. We end with a question Ramtha asked Jaime to answer... this hour you will be enchanted by Jaime's adventures, his pure humility, and his ability to beautifully convey from the core of his being the truth he now knows.

~~~ The Knowledge in this series is Stunning and Timeless! ~~~
August 15th, 2006 (Part 1)
"Where, What is the Source"
This series is Jaime's personal journey and experience as a student of Ramtha. Questions about the nature of the divine and who we are led him to search for the source of what he read in theology and philosophy to learn, if possible, whether the original meaning survived. He had found many loose ends and also clues in ancient writings and cultures and tells of taking a week off his study time for his finals to attend a Beginning Retreat at Ramtha's school. It was just what he was looking for, a complete system of thought that answered questions he had yet to formulate. He shares his personal experience of the traditional belief in a transcendental God outside ourselves and its consequences in contrast with learning we are divine beings ourselves. We start with the book of Genesis, the beginning of the traditional story of creation and God's involvement in it, and discover an exciting and unexpected twist in the light of Ramtha's teachings and story of creation.
August 16th, 2006 (Part 2)
"Who is this God I Believe In"
On his search for sources, clues were revealed, "...little candles that light the way," as Jaime attempted to reconcile his picture of God. "I wanted to find out who is this God I believe in" ...it isn't found in a book somewhere, it comes from the journey. To understand the first sentence in the book of Genesis we must take a 2500-year quest and find out how we have defined who we are since that time. From the deciphering of dying languages, the Mayan codex not readable until recently, the Hebrew term used for God, the encoded ancient language of the Sumerians indicating chaos in the void created everything, we begin to see a strong resemblance to Ramtha's story and emerging cracks in current-day beliefs. We never see a single God in the original source of the story of creation, we see many, and they are portrayed as acting like humans! The importance of recognizing that religious texts stand in contrast to purely historical records, sends us on our way to discovering a possible hidden message between the lines. An exciting journey of discovery!
August 17th, 2006 (Part 3)
"The Hidden Message"
An in-depth look at that first sentence of Genesis, "In the beginning God created the Heavens and the Earth." What were these texts really saying? What were the sources? In Sumerian texts there is no mention of this all powerful entity, but a vast ocean, or the deep, the void, with an element of chaos causing the creation to emerge as in Ramtha's story. So what was the mind of the writers and editors of these ancient texts? Did they actually have the understanding of creation that Ramtha has been teaching for decades to the world? The monotheistic concept, which excludes us from divine nature, is beginning to crack... and break apart. It has caused so many wars and still has not answered the great questions satisfactorily.
September 18th, 2006 (Part 4)
"Exploring the Identity of Moses"
The historical figure who influenced modern culture, is a beacon of religion, and plays a key role in western civilization contributing a huge amount to social and cultural laws of behavior. The French Revolution was a very interesting time in our history --religion and state split, and a new definition of who we are emerged, good thing as religion was crippling science... it was a pivotal point in our 2,500 year journey of discovery. We move forward through time from gaining human rights to beginning to understand quantum physics. Now you don't need faith or church, it's pure science that we have the ability to know the divine without an intermediary. Religious traditions are taken as fact yet archeologists in hot pursuit of Moses never found any evidence of him other than the bible. Egyptians never even reported a Hebrew group or slaves... the story of Moses was by tradition passed on orally for 1,000 years before it was actually written down. Archeology is off the time line with the story, could Moses be more than one person?
September 19th, 2006 (Part 5)
"When Truth Became Abstract Thought"
Religious stories have a purpose and are not necessarily based on historical fact. Is there a figure who might fit Moses? Or more than one? Examine who was who in our history based on archeological findings uncovers some amazing clues. From pharaohs, to bloodlines, to a ritual involving and arch on the Nile we find people and events that if we only read the bible we would never know about. We have complete confusion of people in the Bible, the story of Moses is an elaboration more than actual history. Every piece of historical evidence appears to greatly correlate with what Ramtha has always taught from the beginning, including how Jehovah took the place of our God. The Biblical command, "you shall not worship any other... or make images" broadly coincides with the loss of the pictographic content of language, affecting the way we communicate and use our brain. Only through Ramtha's contribution to science in understanding how the brain really works do we appreciate the full significance of the historical evolution of written language.
September 20th, 2006 (Part 6)
"Our Path to Un-enlightenment"
It's not that Moses didn't exist. The historical Moses is, simply, not the same as the Moses remembered in the Bible. The clue as to who Jehovah was; women were equals in Egypt, the opposite of what we see in the middle east today; The ending of the pure dynastic blood in Egypt marks the ending of an era and the emergence of a new one where women are no longer equal. Where Moses really came from, the Biblical name for God, and the invention of the name Jehovah by the Masoretes. Ramtha gives us clues about Jehovah, the God who created his own chosen people, and about his sister Diana. Who might the Greek Diana be in Sumerian records and the Goddesses of Nature and Fertility, the Mother Goddess and puritanism. How a monotheistic view of reality is no longer suitable and the significance of Ramtha's insistence that we are divine beings ourselves.
August 3rd, 2004What was the significance of texts from 2,000 years ago and as far back as the Sumerians? Jaime's long work and passion for ancient languages and finding the real meaning at the source, reveals for all of us the truth of ancient texts and how have we reshaped them over time. His search for answers to life's basic questions, why are we here? what is our purpose? Led to a journey of mystery, esotericism, and ultimately finding Ramtha, discovered that "Know Thyself" meant "Conquer Yourself."

Pandora Robertson would like you to lie back on her couch, relax and share your dreams. The only thing is — she's a playwright, not a psychoanalyst, and our culture has replaced Freud's couch with Facebook.
That's roughly the idea behind Robertson's new play, 13 Most American Dreams, which runs May 17 through June 2 at Cleveland Public Theatre. Inspired by a conversation with a Freudian psychoanalyst, Robertson's work uses the stage to explore the individual's search for meaning and technology's role in that journey.
"I'm hoping the piece will ask a lot of questions, as opposed to giving answers," she says.
Robertson aims to capture who we are as Americans by analyzing everyday anxieties, aspirations and quirks as they are expressed in sleeping dreams, daydreams and the iconic American dream.
"This performance isolates the aspect of not only who the actors are, but who we are as a community," Robertson says. "It's an extremely powerful thing. Our dreams really affect what we accomplish in life and what our attitudes are."
And yet, she says, dreams cannot be discussed without referencing how social media and the Internet affect our thoughts and our individuality. By constantly sharing our thoughts and aspirations online, we are becoming a collective digital subconscious.
"As soon as we put our thoughts or dreams [online], we're checking to see how many 'liked' it or how many comments it got," Robertson says. "We're getting this immediate feedback."
For that reason, audience participation is key, says Robertson. So she created the Dream Line (1-888-999-9553), where callers can listen to dreams recorded by others or record their own. Several dreams will be featured as sound bites during the play.
"I really feel there is so much potential in each one of us," Robertson says. "Dreams may be that ticket into the gold mine we have just beneath our skulls."

Mark Ronson
London, England
"Just look at somebody like Quincy Jones, who was playing with Duke Ellington when he was 13, but then also took two years out of his life when he was in his 30s to go study music theory with this amazing French woman that studied with Stravinsky. So, I think that's the problem today with a lot of producers and musicians, because in the ProTools era, you can do everything. If you can play mediocre-ally you can get by, because you can just play two bars and loop it up."
- Mark Ronson
His sister Samantha might be more famous for her past relationship with Lindsay Lohan, but Mark Ronson is actually worthy of your attention. Though best known as a celebrity DJ, Mark Ronson has recently managed to establish himself as a respected music producer, thanks to his work with such artists as Christina Aguilera, Macy Gray and Amy Winehouse. He's also stepped out as an artist in his own right thanks to his two albums, Here Comes the Fuzz and Version, with the latter garnering the burgeoning superstar a BRIT Award for Best British Male Solo Artist.
Mark Ronson BiographyMark Daniel Ronson was born on September 4, 1975, in London, England. He spent the first eight years of his life residing in London along with his two sisters, Charlotte and Samantha. When his parents divorced, he moved to New York City with his mother and sisters.His mother eventually went on to marry Foreigner founding member Mick Jones. We're guessing that's where his interest in music began.
After attending New York's prestigious Collegiate School, Mark Ronson tried his hand at the post-secondary landscape by attending both Vasser College and New York University, yet it was his interest in music that eventually came to dominate his day-to-day life. By 1993, Mark Ronson had established himself as an up-and-coming DJ within New York's club scene and was making around $50 per gig.
mark ronson signs with elektra recordsIt only took a few years before Mark Ronson had become one of the city's most sought-after DJs. It didn't hurt that he also appeared in a commercial for Tommy Hilfiger Jeans. His work as a DJ eventually got him noticed by British singer Nikka Costa, and he played an instrumental role in the behind-the-scenes creation of her song "Everybody Got Their Something." Mark Ronson's reputation as a reliable and consistently innovative musician inevitably resulted in a contract with Elektra Records, and he spent the early part of this century working on his first album.
Entitled Here Comes the Fuzz, Mark Ronson's 2003 debut proved that the celebrity DJ had serious street cred. He played the majority of instruments on its 13 tracks and managed to elicit appearances by such well-known musicians as Rivers Cuomo, Jack White and Nate Dogg. The album wasn't exactly a huge seller, but it did expand Mark Ronson's notoriety beyond New York City and eventually proved instrumental in the creation of his own label, Allido Records, just a year later.

Fans already know that country singer Chris Young exudes sexiness and this year, he's decided to play right into their hands with sexy valentines. On February 7, Chris Young's website began offering Valentine's Day e-cards in three designs.
Chris Young is prominently featured on each card. The three selections include Chris Young wearing a slight grin with the caption "I love who I am with you," a smiling Chris with the caption "Every day with you is happy," and a sultry-eyed Chris Young with a message for singles that says, "Hey girl, wanna be single together?" The valentine cards are Chris Young's contribution to Singles Awareness Week.
With lyrics like "Walkin' through the front door, seein' your black dress hit the floor, honey there sure ain't nothing like you lovin' me all night long, and all I can think about is gettin' you home" and "No one gets me like you when you kiss me, girl you rock me harder than some downtown band," Chris Young already had the ladies swooning and his band members giving him grief. His Valentine's Day e-cards are just going to stir the embers, but according to Chris Young, that's okay.
My band likes to give me a hard time about the sexy, bachelor stuff," confesses Chris. "These e-cards are a fun way to give back to my fans, but I'm sure the guys will be giving me some flak next week when we're back on the road.
Chris Young's Valentine's Day cards will be available on his site through February 14.

(Ivanhoe Newswire) - Researchers at Columbia University have found that purified components of ginger may have properties that help asthma patients breathe more easily.
To conduct their study, the researchers mixed the β-agonist isoproterenol with three separate components of ginger: 6-gingerol, 8-gingerol or 6-shogaol. Contracted tissue samples were exposed to each of these three mixtures, as well as unadulterated isoproterenol, and the relaxation responses were recorded and compared.
Researchers found that tissues treated with the combination of purified ginger components and isoproterenol exhibited significantly greater relaxation than those treated only with isoproterenol; of the three ginger components, 6-shogaol appeared most effective in increasing the relaxing effects of the β-agonist.

Randolph County Board of Education Brings Back 'Invisible Man'
"Invisible Man" will reappear again in North Carolina.
North Carolina's Randolph County Board of Education, which had voted 5-2 on Sept. 16 to pull Ralph Ellison's 1952 literary classic, tonight voted to restore the novel to its high school library shelves. According to the Asheboro, North Carolina Courier-Tribune, tonight's vote was 6-1. The decision to remove the book had drawn national attention.
Stephen Gainey, Superintendent, Randolph County School System, told Speakeasy in an emailed statement "In response to our board's action tonight, we will return the book entitled Invisible Man to our schools' libraries and focus our attention on our top priority which is providing a sound educational experience for all of the students in the Randolph County School System."
"Invisible Man" had initially been pulled after a complaint from the mother of a Randleman High School student who had been opposed to the novel's language and sexual content.
Acclaimed novelist Ishmael Reed wrote in an essay on Speakeasy before the board's reversal that "Censoring a work of such literary achievement sets a bad precedent."
Reed added that "'Invisible Man' remains a classic if only because it shows the ongoing conflict between the committed independent artist and institutions that desire to corral their creativity, including the state, a story that is as old as Sophocles and as new as Pussy Riot."

The moon has now entered the air sign of Libra, which is a Cardinal Air sign ruled by Venus. This cardinal moon will set off the upcoming cardinal Grand cross, and a lot of chaos and explosiveness is in the air.
The news stories continue to reflect the upheaval and chaos in the cosmos: pro- Russian insurgents occupying at least ten cities in the Ukraine;the tragic, massive fires in Chile; school stabbings in Pennsylvania. These are just a few examples of the extreme stories that pervade the news these days.
We all need to be cautious right now. Be very careful with candles, electronics, driving, etc. Obviously, you should always be careful; but, this is a time of unpredictable accidents and acts of nature -- such as volcanoes, tornadoes, and tsunamis.
There is a Total Lunar Eclipse on April 15th, 2014 at 25 degrees of Libra, which occurs at 3:42 AM EDT. Libra is the sign of partnerships. Lunar Eclipses are Libran in nature, in that they tend to be very relationship oriented. A lot of relationships are getting tested now. Lunar eclipses often reveal hidden information or show situations in a completely different light.
Keep in mind that as we are in the middle of eclipse season, there is also an upcoming Cardinal Grand Cross. Eclipses bring life changing events. Pair that energy with the Grand cross, which feels like four planets arguing in the sky, and there is serious stress and pressure on all of us.
This Grand square at 13 degrees of Cardinal signs begins on the day of the eclipse these three planets forming a T-Square in the sky:Uranus, the planet of rebellion, in the sign of Aries; Pluto, the planet of power, in the sign of Capricorn; and Jupiter, the planet of expansion, in the sign of Cancer.
These three planets could cause major changes in governments, large corporations, and in our own lives. People with planets at 11 to 15 degrees of Cardinal signs will feel it the most. The Cardinal signs are Aries, Cancer, Libra, and Capricorn.
Mars, the planet of war, joins the scene on April 20th, 2014 and becomes the trigger to the Grand Cross; the moon will also be in Capricorn adding to the intensity of all of this. Major changes are happening in April and May of 2014 which will affect us for years to come.
This cardinal energy also forces us to take action in our lives to generate change -- to break from the old. With this being eclipse time, these changes could last for years to come. Try to use this energy to forge positive changes and breakthroughs in your thoughts, intentions, and actions.
We are building up to a time of release. The energy is intense, as I have been stating repeatedly. Do not make any rash decisions around relationships; but, there will inevitably be a lot of breakups in the following six weeks.
Toxic partnerships and situations will end, people will leave jobs suddenly, heads of companies could get replaced, and unexpected news and events will occur. Good luck and ground yourself for the upcoming Eclipse. Carry black tourmaline and purple amethyst for protection.
Just gonna have to be a different man
Time may change me
But I can't trace time" -- David Bowie

Google to Go 'In-Depth,' Kill Cookies, Solve Death
Carol Kopp
The company is working on a better ad system and improved search results. Oh, and it's going to find a way for us to live forever.
Making the cover of
magazine used to be one of the great hallmarks of success for an individual or a company, and it's still no mean feat. Though, most companies would not be thrilled at being described, like
(NASDAQ:GOOG) is this week in its
cover story, as "one of the most
successful, ubiquitous and increasingly strange
companies on the planet."
Then again, Google corporate types may not mind the description, and co-founder and CEO Larry Page may be quite pleased.
It's not just the wearable computer called Google Glass that
finds strange, or the "smart balloons" that beam Internet signals to remote locations, or the driverless cars steering themselves down the highways of California, Florida, and Nevada.
declares, Google is trying to solve death itself.
Well, yes, apparently it is. But it's not trying to solve death by, say, the end of the current fiscal quarter, or even in the next few quarters.
In a rare interview with
, Google's Page suggested that its investment in a company called Calico, announced this week, may not result in any progress for 10 or 20 years. He calls this and Google projects like it, the "moon shots" -- that is, big ideas that can change the world, but not tomorrow.
And that is what is so very strange about Google. Public companies just don't think 10 or 20 years in the future these days. Or, if they do, they don't talk about it out loud, because it makes shareholders nervous.
So, before getting into how Google is going to help us all live forever, or at least for much longer, take a look at a couple of projects the company is working on that could pay off a lot sooner:
Google is working to replace the "tracking cookie," that familiar but odious component of the Web experience, with something less objectionable on privacy grounds, without breaking the economic system that supports the Internet.
It has enhanced its search results by adding "in-depth articles" to its results, in order to flesh out timely matches with greater context.
Killing Cookies
Google is considering ways to replace the third-party or tracking cookie as the basic piece of information that marketers use to target individuals based on their Web-browsing activity.
Google's attempt to lead on this issue,
first reported by USAToday.com
, will be controversial in itself.
It isn't going to be easy to replace a system that underpins the now-$120 billion digital advertising business, but it could be argued that it has got to be done, and soon.
For one thing, marketers are getting better at interpreting and responding to the information they have gathered on users' interests and habits. But the more effective they get, the creepier they are. Advertisers do not aim to creep out their most-likely potential customers, so the industry itself is at least considering alternatives to the cookie.
Other industry players have responded to consumers' concerns. The latest version of
(NASDAQ:MSFT) Internet Explorer browser has a default setting of "Do Not Track," and
(NASDAQ:AAPL) does not permit third-party cookies in its Safari browser.
Worst of all, mobile apps do not support third-party cookies. So, their days are numbered.
Among the alternatives Google reportedly is considering is an anonymous identifier, or AdID, a system already in use by Apple.
According to USAToday.com, Google will start "reaching out" to industry, consumer, and government groups to get their reaction in the coming weeks and months.
Early indications are that the advertising industry will be wary of a change that could make Google the keeper of knowledge that is now in their own hands. In
the words of AdAge
, this system could take Google "from being the biggest card player at the table to owning the casino."
Exploring "In-Depth"
Google is, after all, supposed to be a search engine company, so it's a relief to learn that it's still working on that.
It's also good to get an explanation for those "in-depth articles" links that have begun popping up in some search results.
It seems that Google conducted a study late last year that concluded that about 10% of the queries conducted on its search engine were not satisfactory. That is, the user required more information, different information, or at least more context, than its algorithm had turned up.
The result is "in-depth articles," a selection of related long-form articles that might be months or even years old, but that includes the context that is otherwise missing.
an article co-authored
by data scientist Peter J. Meyers, Forbes.com's Denis Pinsky explains the new section, well, in-depth.
Curing Death
But about that cure for death…
The new company, called Calico and funded in part by Google, is dedicated to tackling the issues of aging-related disease, with the goal of extending the human life span.
In a blog post
announcing the company
, Page says he believes the company can improve millions of lives by bringing what he calls "moon shot thinking" to health care and biotechnology.
The company will be led by Arthur D. Levinson, a biochemist by training who is the chairman and former CEO of Genentech as well as the chairman of Apple. He also was on Google's board until 2009, when he resigned to resolve a regulatory probe into the overlapping directors at Google and Apple.
Wired.com thinks Calico
is, for Google, "an odd move." What happened, it asks, to the promise Page made just two years ago to put more focus in core ventures?
cover story might have an interesting answer to that question. Medicine is becoming an information science, it notes, as vast amounts of data are increasingly used to customize treatment. And Google, the article notes, "is very, very good with large data sets."
But if that's not persuasive, consider this: Google has about $54 billion in cash. If it can use a chunk of that to extend all of our lives, or just to cure Larry Page's midlife crisis (he's 40), what could it hurt?

Inns are as different and idiosyncratic as their intrepid owners, and often reflect years of growth and inspiration. We believe that, like people, each inn has a unique essence--a soul. It is the search for that soul, and the illumination of it through photography, that makes our experience with inns so rewarding and enriching. In these images, we hope to express the souls of a few of the many inns with which we have worked, and which have touched our souls over the years.

nail polish || satchel || dress || hat || shoes
Tea dresses are a great shape for my pear-shaped figure. Wide hips are balanced by the detail in the top half (Peter Pan collars and short sleeves are my best friends) and the daisy print of this frock is so pretty. I've been seeing a swathe of 'ugly chunky white shoes' both online and on the streets of London, but I'd like to think these are pretty comfy and err on the not-so-hideous side. A red satchel and fedora seem fitting, and I'm loving Essie's spring nail polish colours at the moment.
