Island Retreat to Lover's Paradise
Duration: Full Day
Boasting a year-round tropical climate and unique geology, the Seychelles host some of the most beautiful and rare flora and fauna in the world. With over 100 granitic and coral islands to choose from, this romantic, paradise location also offers a wealth of secluded beaches to escape to, surrounded by crystalline turquoise waters, lush palms, unique granite rock formations and coral reefs abundant in tropical marine life. This unforgettable excursion will whisk you away to one of the Seychelles' most beautiful, unspoilt and fascinating granitic islands, where you will discover all these treasures and more. Aride is a lover's paradise just waiting to be explored.
Being a nature reserve, leased and managed by the Island Conservation Society of Seychelles, the uninhabited Aride Island is every nature lover's dream location. Offering dramatic landscapes of lush woodland and hills, and soaring granite cliffs, the island attracts some of the most spectacular wildlife in the Seychelles, including the world's largest concentration of lizards and particularly frigate birds. Home to one of the most important sea bird nesting sites in the Indian Ocean, Aride is a vital sanctuary and breeding site for over a million birds.
Eighteen species of native birds breed here, including five which are found only in the Seychelles. Brown Noddies, Roseate Terns, the Seychelles Fody, Seychelles Blue Pigeon and the Seychelles Sunbird can all be spotted here, as well as the world's largest population of Seychelles Warbler, the endangered Seychelles Magpie-Robin and several pairs of Red-tailed Tropicbirds, which only breed on Aride Island. Other species include the world's only hilltop colony of Sooty Terns, the world's largest colonies of Lesser Noddies and Audubon's Shearwaters and what is believed to be the world's largest colony of White-tailed Tropicbirds. You can enjoy breathtaking views of these fascinating bird colonies from vantage points in the granite cliffs and hilltops. Watching the frigate birds soaring past you at eye level is a memorable experience not to be missed.
This tour will also introduce you to some of Aride's exotic, lush flora. The island boasts one of the Seychelles' rarest indigenous species, which does not grow naturally anywhere else in the world − Wright's Gardenia. With its unique white and spotted, trumpet-shaped, scented flowers, it is one of most beautiful plants in the Seychelles.
Stroll down the scenic hillside paths to one of the islands' most beautiful beaches, where you can enjoy a sumptuous BBQ lunch, surrounded by soft white sands, crystalline blue sea and hundreds of birds soaring overhead. After lunch, you will get the chance to snorkel in the alluring waters and explore the wildlife in Aride's magnificent underwater world, which hosts an abundance of tropical marine life. The island is protected by a coral reef, and 200m of its surrounding waters are part of the Aride Island nature reserve. Over 400 fish species inhabit these local waters, including many reef fish, Napoleon Wrasse, Barracuda Flying Fish and Whale Sharks. You may even be lucky enough to spot Green and Hawksbill Turtles, which regularly nest on the island's tranquil beaches. If you are looking for natural wonders, rare wildlife and paradise beaches during your holiday in the Seychelles, Aride has it all.

Why Business Apps Fail?
Total Articles: 304
In the last few years, we have witnessed a sudden boom in the demand of smart phones, tablets and iPads etc. This has increased the demand of mobile apps and forced app developing companies to rethink about their strategies to meet the augmented demand of the apps. Businesses have added more burdens on the app developing companies, by demanding customized apps to suit their business requirements. Often app developers have to be quite innovative while designing and developing such apps. Irrespective of app developers delivering best apps, it is often seen that the business owners fail to utilize them and causing their downfall. Through this write up, I will throw some light on the top reasons behind the failure of a business app.
1. Poor budgeting – Poor budgeting is the biggest factor behind a number of app failures. Business owners failed to identify the priorities to invest in them. As a business owner you should choose, what is of utmost important. This factor becomes even more important you are a small business owner and have a limited budget. In this case, go for customized apps that include only the most essential features that you feel are fit to be included in a business app.
2. Premature monetization policy – After mulling over the budget, next point to think is how this project will earn more revenue. You should have a clear strategy for using your app in benefit of the business and setting a monetization policy would help you with this. If your budget is limited then, go for monetization policy even smartly.
3. Unspecified target – Another very important reason behind business app's failure is the unspecified target audience. Select the audience you are going to target through the app before you go for it. By informing app development company about the target audience, you give them the option to use their creativity and skills to develop an app that suits your requirement. While selecting the target audience, you should observe their needs and analyze whether, your app would be capable of fulfilling their expectations.
4. Not identifying the competitors – Many business apps experienced failure because business owners overlooked their competitors. On the contrary, a business owner should gather as much information as possible about its competitors and what they have been doing of late. This would help them in getting an app, which is better than a competitor's app and is capable of delivering everything that a consumer could ask for.
5. Mid way alterations – There are cases, when updating or altering an app caused its failure. Updating an app is important. All right! However, it often irritates the existing users who have become used to with the previous version of the app. Therefore, business owners should plan an update or alteration very carefully and include new features in such a way that they do not upset the existing users.
6. Customer feedback – For any app to thrive successfully, it is important that it becomes what the customers want it to be. Customer feedback is important in this regard and most apps fail because the owners ignore valuable customer feedback. Through customer feedback, you get to know the changes customers anticipate in your app and this could help you in planning the next update.
7. Insufficient relevancy and functionality – Creating an irrelevant app is like making people stand in a desert and eat delicious hot chillies. If your app is unable to solve the problems faced by your customers then it is equal to not having an app.
Apart from this, business owners should make sure that they update their app developer with all the information that could help them in creating relevant and simple app. Remember that even a small piece of information could be a decisive change-maker especially, when it comes to developing an app for a business.

County pitches meals tax to legislators
By Tom Lappas, Citizen Editor 11/15/12
Henrico County officials made their pitch for a 4-percent meals tax to the county's General Assembly delegation last week, telling the group that the proposed tax was their last resort to create revenue and close an $18-million shortfall in next year's budget before raising real estate taxes, cutting services or laying off employees.
Henrico lacks the authority to implement such a tax on its own, so officials want the General Assembly to grant it that authority, with the provision that the county's Board of Supervisors must unanimously support it.
A total of 204 other Virginia localities already have meals taxes, including 45 other counties – four of which were specifically granted the right to implement the tax by the General Assembly.
"We have evaluated all the alternatives, and this has the very least consequence," County Manager Virgil Hazelett told the nine delegates and senators who attended. "People will object – some people – but they will not object to police officers, to teachers [and other county services]."
Hazelett and Finance Director Brandon Hinton presented an impassioned argument to the Assembly delegation, recounting how in just their past three fiscal years, they have trimmed nearly $97 million from their total budget and eliminated or frozen 721 vacant government and school positions in an attempt to compensate for $84 million in lost revenue from declining real estate taxes and state funding.
The county also has refunded $317 million in debt through bond refinancing since 2009 and has weathered the storm without cutting services, laying off any employees or raising taxes, Hazelett said.
But a significant jump in the amount localities must pay into the Virginia Retirement System on behalf of employees looms large on the horizon, as do road maintenance and construction needs in Henrico that total $418 million but have no current funding source.
County officials have pointed to the fact that Henrico is the only state locality that maintains its own secondary road system but lacks the authority to collect a meals tax. (Arlington, the only other county that maintains its own roads, was granted the right to implement such a tax in 1990.) Locally, Richmond imposes a 6 percent meals tax, Ashland a 5 percent tax and Louisa County a 4 percent tax.
Henrico officials estimate that about 40 percent of all prepared meals purchased in the county are bought by non-Henrico residents, which would lessen the impact of such a tax on county residents. And unlike a real estate tax increase, residents would be free to avoid a meals tax by not dining out or by limiting their dining excursions, Board chairman Dick Glover said.
"A meals tax is not something we'd impose on them that they can't dodge if they want to," Glover said.
A 4-percent meals tax would generate between $18 million and $20 million annually, Hazelett estimated. He and board members told the Assembly delegation that they likely would not designate that money for any one particular use but rather apply it as needed.
Delegate Jimmie Massie wondered aloud whether it would be difficult to convince other members of the General Assembly to support a tax increase for just one locality.
Deputy County Manager John Vithoulkas, who will assume Hazelett's position in mid-January, suggested that the delegation could take another route by supporting the passage of language that would authorize all counties that maintain their own road systems to have the same taxing authorities as cities. (Cities inherently have the right to implement meals, cigarette and admissions taxes.)
Henrico could enact a meals tax if a majority of voters supported the idea in a referendum, but they seem leery of trying that route again after voters defeated it in 2005 by 153 votes.
Varina District Supervisor Tyrone Nelson told the delegation that without the Assembly's approval of the issue, Henrico's would not survive unscathed.
"If you can't support a meals tax, then our issues are not going to go away," he said. "This is a last resort. A tax is going to come up or we will have to cut services or lay people off. We don't do that in Henrico, and we don't want to do this, but this is where we are. We need your help."

I believe it was through Cosmic Trigger that I became aware of James Shelby Downard (maybe), although Downard might have first popped up on my radar via Adam Parfrey's seminal anthology Apocalypse Culture (1987), which I probably read around the same time I first sunk my teeth into Cosmic Trigger in the late 1980s, and which did a similar number to my head.
During the period RAW was experiencing all of his Sirius synchronicities, a Fortean researcher named William Grimstad sent him an audio cassette series entitled Sirius Rising, a recording with James Shelby Downing that "…set forth the most absurd, the most incredible, the most ridiculous Illuminati theory of them all…[that] the Illuminati were preparing Earth, in an occult manner, for extraterrestrial contact…. The only trouble is that, after the weird data we have already surveyed [in Cosmic Trigger], the Grimstad-Downard theory may not sound totally unbelievable to us…."
At the time, Downard was an obscure and little known figure outside the small circle of Fortean/Conspiracy researchers who gravitated around him that included Bill Grimstad, Michael Anthony Hoffman II and Charles Saunders.
Due in some measure to Downard's influence, Grimstad (under the non-de-plume of Jim Brandon) authored the Fortean classics Weird America (1978) and The Rebirth of Pan (1983). In the "Dallas, Texas" section of Weird America, Brandon presented the theory that JFK was a "ceremonial king-who-must-die" killed by modern age alchemists following an ancient druidic tradition, a hypothesis arrived at by a "certain body of opinion, undoubtedly the farthest out brain wave of assassinology yet." No direct mention was made, at this time, as to the theory's originator: James Shelby Downard.
It was through "King Kill 33°: Masonic Symbolism in the Assassination of John F. Kennedy" (featured in Apocalypse Culture) that Downard first came to the attention of conspiratologists and over time rose to the status of a mythic figure who traveled across the country in his famous airstream trailer investigating Fortean mysteries and battling Freemasonic adversaries at every turn, his trusty Colt 45 always at his side.Due to my own interests in Downardiana, I penned the 2008 mini bio James Shelby Downard's Mystical War in which I listed a bibliography of his known works:
As for unpublished works, Michael Hoffman informed me several years ago that Downard's "…niece, Robbie Smith, had in her possession at his death, Mr. Downard's locked suitcase files which neither Mr. Grimstad, this writer or Charles Saunders had ever seen. She told me about some of the contents. I was desperate to buy them but could not meet her price. She admitted to destroying some of his materials after his death! I found her difficult. God willing, she has preserved something and someone will be able to purchase these from her one day. If it's all lost, it's a tragedy."
This news that the last remnants of Downard's literary legacy might have knowingly or unknowingly been tossed into a dumpster was certainly a disappointing prospect, which is what would have happened to the Discordian Archives had not Dr. Bob Newport intervened and rescued them from Greyfaced oblivion.
In the intro to The Carnivals of Life and Death, Adam Parfrey noted that Downard died before he could write the second part of his biography and so the general consensus seemed to be that we'd probably never see any further Downardian writings—that is, until NOW…
During the course of writing James Shelby Downard's Mystical War, I corresponded not only with Michael Hoffman, but also Bill Grimstad, and stayed in touch with Bill over the last decade. At the end of 2015, Grimstad informed me that he'd come into possession of what appeared to be Part 2 of Downard's biography(!) and inquired if I was interested in publishing the material. Hell, yes, I responded.
The caveat, though, was that the manuscript was in microfiche format (circa 1980s) and would need to be converted into tiffs. I agreed to split the costs for this process, and then afterwards began sorting through the material, which in itself proved a somewhat daunting task due to the fact that it consisted of a staggering 799 pages, a combination of biographical material as well as Downard hashing out his central themes and theories in a manner that only he could do.
Phase two of the project entailed converting the manuscript to PDF and getting it into proper chronological order, but this as well was somewhat challenging and was making my head hurt a bit; it seemed the only way to review it and make sure I had all the pages in correct order was to print out the beast, maybe a few pages at a time. After printing out a dozen or so pages, I realized that about 2/3rds of my black ink cartridge had been sucked dry due to the black margins on the pages that were a by-product of the microfiche conversion. A visit to FedEx-Kinko's and $150 later, I had a printed version in my hot little hands, which was a lot less expensive than sinking several hundred dollars into black ink cartridges. (Yes, I realize this is a first world problem!)
The plan from there was to OCR the beast and just edit as I go. Unfortunately, the first test OCR revealed that each page would take more time correcting the OCR errors than it would take to just retype the whole enchilada fresh—which is exactly what I'm doing now, a few pages here and a few pages there—in between other projects I'm currently working on.
If there are any volunteers out there who would like to assist me in the typing drudgery, say 50 pages at a pop, drop me a line and this will allow you a sneak peak at a portion of Downard's missing magnum opus—not to mention a gratis copy after it's published!
To be continued…
Born Roger Watlington in Knoxville, Tennessee on May 11, 1941, he later changed his name to Roger Lovin which would prove apropos in terms of the footloose and fancy free lifestyle he later adopted.
In the early 1960s, Lovin managed a French Quarter coffee house called The Gryphon, which doubled as a bohemian art gallery and hangout for French Quarter beatniks. In this regard, a curious news article appeared in the Oct 12, 1964 The Times-Picayune about a smoke bomb attack at The Gryphon that caused minor damage and one injury.
It's unknown if the bombing was in any way directed at Lovin, although that wouldn't come as a surprise as he was always a somewhat controversial character fond of ruffling the feathers of the squares. However, I suspect this incident may have had something to do with the bohemian clientele that frequented The Gryphon and a certain conservative element in New Orleans that was probably none too thrilled about it. As noted in the news article, a similar smoke bomb attack went down at the Quorum Coffee House (also known as The Quorum Club), another establishment with deep Discordian ties. A Wikipedia entry describes The Quorum as "a coffee house in New Orleans, known as a model for multicultural exchanges in the politically and racially charged atmosphere of the 1960s. It became a frequent target of segregationist harassment in New Orleans after it opened to persons from all racial backgrounds in 1963. In 1964, police raided The Quorum and arrested 73 people on charges such as 'playing guitars out of tune.'"
Although The Quorum was a multicultural beatnik mecca, Kerry Thornley returned to New Orleans in the summer of 1964 and delivered a decidedly un-beatnik type lecture there on Ayn Rand and Objectivism—but that was typical Thornley: an iconoclast who reveled in tweaking people's sensibilities on either side of the cultural or political spectrum. It's also important to note that Kerry's last meeting with the notorious Gary Kirstein (aka Brother-in-law who supposedly lured him into the JFK assassination) took place on the back patio of The Quorum (cast in creepy shadows) following Kerry's lecture there that night.
Another Early Discordian, Barbara Reid (the main witness against Kerry in the Jim Garrison fiasco), became known as a "den mother" to a group of hippie kids that hung out at The Quorum, so the Discordian connections ran deep and weird. Apparently, there's a film documentary about The Quorum called, appropriately enough (yes, you guessed it), The Quorum, which speaks to the influence this coffee house had on French Quarter culture. The website for The Quorum film describes how it was started in 1963 "by an idealistic group of individuals most of whom had met at the Ryder, an earlier, short-lived, racially integrated coffee house on Rampart Street in the New Orleans French Quarter. When the Ryder was shut down by city officials on the pretext of needing the space to construct a hotel, approximately twelve of the former Ryder patrons banded together to establish a similar sort of establishment with a similar purpose…."
As it so happens, the defunct Ryder coffee house (mentioned above) became of interest to Jim Garrison during his JFK assassination investigation as a supposed meeting place where Thornley had met with Lee Harvey Oswald and other suspected diabolical doings went down, which I previously covered in this post. But I digress…
The Quorum and Gryphon smoke bombings occurred during the same period Jim Garrison rolled out a campaign to "clean up" the French Quarter, and the specific targets of this campaign were strip clubs and establishments catering to the homosexual community. This is not to suggest that Garrison was in any way responsible for the smoke bomb caper, but what these events spoke to was the tension and unrest brewing across the cultural landscape, particularly in the French Quarter which had always been a fertile breeding ground for freaks and free spirits to flourish.This period is covered in Plot Or Politics?: The Garrison Case and Its Cast (1967), authored by award winning New Orleans States-Item reporters Rosemary James and Jack Wardlaw, who covered the Garrison investigation from its very beginnings. Plot Or Politics? also covers, albeit briefly, the rise of Garrison's political career and provides an intimate snapshot of what was brewing behind the scenes with the Garrison investigation before it became a thing. Plot Or Politics? is also of interest because it devotes a couple pages to none other than Kerry Thornley regarding his interactions with Oswald in the Marines. This section on Thornley is noteworthy because it appeared several months before Garrison painted a target on Thornley's back.
In regards to Garrison's campaign against "vice," pages 21 and 22 of Plot Or Politics? informs the reader that:
Almost as soon as he took office, Garrison took aim at the city's sin strip—"The Street", Bourbon Street. Former New Orleans newsman Bill Stuckey recalls:
"Shortly after he became district attorney in 1962, [Garrison] launched a crackdown on homosexuals in New Orleans, raiding 'gay bars' frequently, arresting 'gay kids' on the streets of the French Quarter. After one such arrest, the New Orleans States-Item sent me to the police station to see what the formal charges were. There, on paper, probably was one of the strangest charges in U.S. legal history: 'Being a homosexual in an establishment with a liquor license.' The drive died down after several weeks. One benefit of it may have been the creation of a body of homosexual informants for the district attorney's office—informants possibly involved in his Kennedy plot investigation."
It probably appears like I'm once again digressing, but I wanted to lay out the cultural landscape of the period—a culture in which Lovin was knee deep—and the conditions that precipitated the crackdown on the homosexual community, all of which might have attributed to the coffee house smoke bombings, and a cultural sea change which was only then just beginning to make waves…
When Greg Hill and Kerry Thornley moved away from the French Quarter in the mid-60s, they left the New Orleans branch of the Discordian Society in the capably chaotic hands of Mr. Lovin, whom Thornley described in the Illuminet Press intro of Principia Discordia as "a dashing, talented and handsome con artist who was too shallow to settle into any one thing. But for years and years after he read the Principia, under his Discordian name of Fang the Unwashed, he consistently and with unswerving devotion to the task excommunicated every new person any of the rest of us initiated into the Discordian Society."
Kerry wasn't just lightly tossing around the assertion that Lovin excommunicated new Discordian initiates, as revealed in this December 2, 1964 letter from Greg Hill (aka Malaclypse the Younger) to pilgrims Judy Gates and Bob Yeager.
The Early Discordians become infamous for these types of humorous letters, and one of the funniest I've come across was composed by Lovin dated December 17, 1964, addressed to Greg Hill (who appears to have been staying with Bob Newport in Chicago at the time):
All Hail Discordia!!!!!?!!!!!!!
To: MALACLYPSE (THE YOUNGER), K.C.: OMNIPOTENT POLYFATHER OF VIRGINITY IN GOLD AND HIGH PRIEST OF THE HERETIC FRINGE AND PROTESTANT PERSAUSION
FROM: FANG (THE UNWASHED), W.K.C.: LIBERATOR OF THE THIRD EYE, PROTECTOR of the WESTERN WORLD, EXALTED LAMA of the NEW ORLEANS CABAL, and L.L.L.L.L.L. (Lovin's Licentiously Liberated Lightning Lechers)
Hail Eris,
Concerning thy recent epistle of Excommunication: Screw Thee. Thou wilt understand, of course, that it isn't the humble Fang; but FANG, W.K.C.: L.T.E., P.W.W., E.L.N.O.C., and L.L.L.L.L.L. and wilt therefore realize that naught of a personal nature is meant… dig?
Wouldst do me the favor of communicating Lord Omar's current whereabouts to me in the swiftest mode. This One is plagued with constant uncertainties and apprehensions due to an extreme dearth of information concerning That One. I fear me ever that the Foul Forces of Light and Reason have fallen upon him unaware and smotten (wow!) Him severely about the shoulders and intellect. Thou wouldst earn thyself everlasting gratitude and a mention in the evening maledictions by such an action. Also; if you don't, I'll kill you.
As to the progress of the New Orleans Cabal: The first Temple of Eris in New Orleans was formally defecated on Nov. 3, 1964, at 519 Decatur St. (which, oddly enough, is also my home address.) It occupied a converted broom closet. Admittedly, that is rather humble quarters for such a large and far-flung organization; but in the short space of one month we have more than doubled our area. This noble word was accomplished chiefly through the untiring efforts of our noble leader, FANG, W.K.C.: L.T.E., P.W.W., E.L.N.O.C., and L.L.L.L.L.L. and his noble assistant, Charles Noble. They single-handedly (one hand, three hooks) formed K.R.U.D. (Kollectors of Revenue Under Duress) and saw to the raising of funds. Our membership already includes two beatniks, one wasp, a hunchbrain, and a genuine, card carrying square who has 2.7 kids and a wife with a cloth coat. Therefore, be of good cheer. Today New Orleans, tomorrow the Catacombs – with some scattered showers in the evening.
As I am naturally curious about what sort of person would spend his time on such drivel as this, kindly send me some data about yourself. Send also a copy of HYMN. Barring the feasibility of a picture, send a piece of fingernail and some hair…..
In closing, let me say: MARY CHRISTMAS, SAVIOR MONEY!!!
(signed) FANG
As the beatniks morphed into hippies, Lovin went right along for the ride. On December 9, 1966, he hosted a "psychedelic happening" billed as an "LSD trip without LSD" that certainly sounded Discordian in nature, as documented in the December 10, 1966 States Time Advocate news article below.
On October 16, 1968, Lovin appeared on TV program called Hotseat revealing "The Truth About Hippies." It was around this time that he started the first underground newspaper in New Orleans, The Word (later to be known as The Ungarbled Word.) While all of this was going on, Lovin became a suspect of sorts in the Garrison investigation, all of which will be discussed in more detail than you can possibly imagine in future installment of this series!
The essay includes references to my books and this website:
"Through his blog, Historia Discordia, Gorightly continues to transform Discordianism's material culture into a historical narrative of its past. Thanks to the participatory nature of the Internet, Gorightly's narrative concerning Discordianism's historical development has attracted a number of online collaborators. While the intermingling of older Discordians with new converts is not, ostensibly, the primary purpose of the blog, it is inseparable from the archive's aim of creating a serialized history of Discordianism…"
As Greer notes, this website would not be possible without online collaboration, and so thanks to everyone who has assisted along the way, most particularly Groucho Gandhi, K.S.P., who maintains and is the brains behind the site.

The method to this madness included mixing fact with fiction so that you were never quite sure how many of the Illuminati references in Illuminatus! were based on "real" sources, such as a quote from a radical Chicago newspaper, The Roger Spark (July 1969), which stated that Adam Weishaupt had murdered George Washington and served in his place for his two terms as President. This article also promoted the theory that Mayor Richard Daley was "…one of the top agents of the infamous and long legendary Bavarian Illuminati."
Robert Anton Wilson and Robert Shea , it so happens, helped publish The Roger Spark during the period the two worked at Playboy in the late 1960s. The article in question, "DALEY LINKED WITH ILLUMINATI," contains a mix of fact vs. fiction (do we sense a theme here?) with no actual byline; it's simply credited to The Spark, but in reality it was RAW/Shea who were responsible for the piece, so in essence they were quoting themselves in Illuminatus! (ala The Spark), another example of OM-styled Guerrilla Ontology. Grab the full issue in PDF here.
Elsewhere in Illuminatus! an article titled "THE MOST SINISTER, EVIL, SUBVERSIVE CONSPIRACY IN THE WORLD" by Sandra Glass (TeenSet Magazine, March 1969) is referenced concerning an investigation into the mysterious Ancient Illuminated Seers of Bavaria (A.I.S.B.). This article was ominously prefaced with an editor's note: "Before her recent death, Miss Glass was an expert on subversive affairs." The source—for many of the revelations in the article—came allegedly from an anarchist named Simon Moon, who would later turn up as a character in Illuminatus! This article, like the one from The Roger Spark, was surreptitiously written by RAW and Shea, and much of its content would later appear in Illuminatus!
According to the TeenSet article, Adam Weishaupt founded the A.I.S.B. in Ingolstadt on May 1st, 1776, and their slogan—or secret password—was "Ewige Blumenkraft" which translated to "Flower Power Forever." At first glance, this motto seemingly refers to May Day, the date the A.I.S.B. officially came into existence. However—as revealed in Illuminatus!—the complete version of the motto was "Ewige Blumenkraft und ewige Schlangenkraft," which translates to "eternal flower power and eternal serpent power" and apparently suggests that the fertility rites of spring are connected to the kundalini force—or serpent power—which itself relates to the practice of Tantrism, or sex magic. And that, in essence, is the True Secret of the Illuminati: Sex Magic.
The TeenSet article intimated that during the 1968 Democratic Convention, when Senator Abraham Ribicoff criticized police violence against anti-war demonstrators, Mayor Daley responded with an animated retort, and "…his lips were forming the words that by this time have become frighteningly familiar: 'Ewige Blumenkraft!'"
The article further asserted that, "…the Ancient Illuminated Seers of Bavaria has infiltrated, allied itself with or taken over all TV networks and wire services, the Federal Reserve System, the John Dillinger Died For You Society, the Chicago Tribune, the Discordian Society, the Communist Party (USA), the Paratheo-Anametamystikhood of Eris Esoteric (P.O.E.E.), Hell's Angels, the Sophisticated Sisters of Blessed Saints Claustrophilia and Theophobia, the Mafia, the Black Lotus Society, the Lawrence Talbot Memorial Society and enough additional organizations to fill a book the size of the Manhattan telephone directory (yellow pages)."

Fresh off the publication of Illuminatus!, the interview included RAW's musings on conspiracy theories, space migration, life extension, the Eight Circuit Model and Aleister Crowley.
In response, Mae Brussell—the Matron Saint of Conspiracy Theorists—fired off the following letter challenging RAW's contention that Tim Leary's stint in prison was anything but difficult, and in actuality (or at least in Mae's reality tunnel) Leary had been coddled by the Feds (and fed steak!) and that his time in lock-up was actually a cake-walk.
Mae further employed the cake metaphor to explain how the likes of Leary, RAW and John Lilly were in cahoots with the CIA to corrupt the youth of America!
White sugar is a drug in cake icing used to induce us to consume white flour. Sugar is, literally, a reward for eating the cake. Lilly, [Bucky] Fuller, Wilson, and Leary are the white sugar frosting that sweeps people into happy time, scooping them up into a dream world so they will avoid the reality of a good diet of sound action. Leary, Wilson and their likes are used by the CIA Intelligence Community to sugar sweet the yellow brick road to Oz, while the means to enslave mankind are being manufactured under our noses…
In response to Mae's missive, RAW came clean about his role in this diabolical brainwashing plot, confessing that he'd been a "high Official of the Central Intelligence Agency since July 23, 1973" and, further agreeing with Mae's theory on the "white sugar" allegations, agreed that:
Dr. Leary didn't merely have a high time at that great pleasure resort, Folsom Prison, as Mae has discovered; he had a great time in all the 29 prisons he visited during the last six years, although actually most of the time he was living (with a private harem) in the Taj Mahal, only appearing at the prisons often enough to keep alive the myth that he was a political prisoner…
One might conclude that Mae's theory re: RAW and Leary as dastardly members of this "white sugar mafia" was, in essence, a metaphor to suggest that they'd been used by intelligence agency handlers to soft peddle psychedelics and space migration and all the other heady stuff they were entertaining at the time.
In this vein, I remember hearing one of Mae's tape recorded radio shows (from the early 1980s) where she claimed that Leary, RAW and other unnamed "spychiatrists" were part of a mind control squadron that went around brainwashing important people. For instance, Mae claimed that this Leary-RAW MK-ULTRA tag team showed up at Larry Flynt's mansion (during the period that Flynt was attempting to expose the Kennedy assassination) and effectively messed with Flynt's mind and influenced him to drop his one million dollar reward to expose the assassination. Afterwards, Flynt became increasingly erratic, like showing up for his trial dressed only in a diaper made out of an American flag, and a number of other publicity stunts that gave the impression he'd gone off his nut.
(If anyone has a copy or knows which episode from the Worldwatchers Archive of this specific Mae Brussell tape please contact your humble chronicler here at HD hindquarters so I know I just didn't imagine hearing it.)
Given these peculiar insights, one wonders if Mae, at some point, hadn't been exposed to the rantings of Kerry Thornley, as it was during this period (late-70s/early-80s) that Kerry's schizophrenia kicked into high gear and he was making similar claims that both RAW and Leary were working as his handlers, covertly visiting him in Atlanta to do whatever it is that diabolical mind control handlers do. It makes perfect sense that Thornley may have contacted Mae in this regard, as during this period he was firing off letters left and right to whoever would listen to his JFK Assassination revelations, and his suspicions that he'd been MK-ULRTA'ed.
Case in point: A 1975 "affidavit" in which Kerry talked about a "team" of handlers he met in Atlanta, one of whom "bore an uncanny intellectual and psychological resemblance to an anarchist writer friend of mine [RAW] who lives in California…"
In RAW's intro to The Prankster and the Conspiracy, he wrote:
I remember my last phone conversation with Kerry, during which he announced that just a week earlier I had come to Atlanta, argued with him about my alleged CIA connections, spiked his drink with LSD, and brainwashed him again. I told him that I had not left San Francisco in months, and that if he had a bad acid trip the previous week then somebody else gave him the acid, not me. I insisted on this as persuasively as I could.
Finally, Kerry relented—a bit. "Well, maybe you believe that", he said. "But that means your bosses have been fucking with your head and implanting false memories in you too!"
"How do you argue that you haven't had your head altered? "Look," I said, I'll put my wife Arlen on. She'll tell you I haven't left here in months."
"That won't prove anything," he said with the calm certitude of a Gran Master announcing checkmate. "They probably fixed her head too."
I don't remember the rest of the conversation. I felt lost in an Escher painting…
A 1976 letter from Kerry (to Greg Hill) claimed that both Leary and RAW visited him that year, and he went on to write that, "I am literally surrounded by the intelligence community, but after the first three attempts to murder me things seem to have cooled down and most of the spies now appear to be on my side…"
During this period, RAW and Leary wrote on article (June 1976 issue of Oui) entitled "Brainwashing: How To Fold, Spindle and Mutilate the Human Mind in Five Easy Steps" which may have further fueled the fire in the minds of some that RAW and Leary were taking names and washing brains!

At the point when our bodies process the protein we eat, the procedure creates waste products. In the kidneys, millions of tiny blood vessels act as filters since they have even tinier holes in them. As blood flows through these vessels, little molecules such as waste items may press through the gaps. These waste items turn out to be a part of the urine. Helpful substances such as protein and red blood cells are too enormous to go through the gaps in the filter and stay in the blood.
Diabetes and kidneys: Diabetes can harm the kidneys. Abnormal amount of glucose make the kidneys filter a lot of blood. After a couple of years, they begin to spill and helpful protein is thereby lost in urine. Having low protein levels in the urine is called micro albuminuria.
Medication: When kidney disease is analyzed on time, during micro albuminuria, a few medications may keep kidney disease from getting worse. Having elevated levels of protein in the urine is called macro albuminuria. When kidney disease is looked up some other time during macro albuminuria, end-stage renal disease (ESRD) usually follows.
Causes: Strain on the organs may cause the kidneys to lose their filtering capacity. Waste items then begin to develop in the blood. Finally, the kidneys start to fail. This failure, ESRD, is intense. A patient with ESRD needs a kidney transplant or a blood filtration by a machine (dialysis).
Other complications: Individuals with diabetes will probably have other kidney-related issues such as bladder infections and nerve damages in the bladder.
Preventing complications: Not everybody with diabetes goes through a kidney disease. Elements that can impact kidney disease improvement include genetics, blood sugar control and blood pressure. The more a person keeps diabetes and blood pressure under control, the lower the chances of getting a kidney disease.
Keeping your glucose levels high can counteract diabetic kidney problems. Research has demonstrated that blood glucose control diminishes the danger of micro albuminuria by 33%. For individuals who suffer from micro albuminuria have now a reduced danger of advancing to macro albuminuria. Different studies have recommended that blood glucose control can reverse micro albuminuria.
Treatment: Essential treatments for kidney infection include control of blood glucose and blood pressure. Blood pressure dramatically affects the rate at which the condition progresses. Indeed, even a gentle increase in blood pressure can rapidly aggravate a kidney infection. Four approaches to bring down your blood pressure are:
- Shedding pounds
- Eating less salt
- Maintaining a strategic distance from liquor and tobacco
- Exercising regularly
A low-protein diet can decrease the amount of lost protein in the urine and increase the protein levels in the blood. Never begin a low-protein diet without talking to a physician.

My wife age 62 is suffering from urine leakage problem. Uterus and gall bladder has been removed. Frequent urge to urinate. Please suggest remedy.
Many persons report to doctors complaining about weakness, backache, loss of energy and other vague symptoms attributing these all to the loss of calcium and sometime semen with urine. How do they get to this conclusion? They may have noticed 'white discharge (particularly in morning sample) in urine, they leak few drops of white discharge while talking to women (talking over phone included) or thinking about them, their neighborhood 'test wala' (lab technician) report their urine containing a few calcium carbonate crystals (anyways its almost always same test wala or 'medical wala' (medical store owner) who orders their urinalysis in first instance), they suffer (as per them) from frequent night emissions associated with wet dreams or without wet dreams and so on (list is exhaustive).
This is precipitated and perpetuated by commonly held belief about extreme preciousness of semen in sub-continental cultures including ours. This is based on an old hindu belief that it takes forty drops of blood to create a drop of bone marrow and forty drops of bone marrow to create a drop of sperm (wikipedia). These persons usually spend good amount of resources for treatment of 'calcium or semen loss' without much success.
This is actually a neuro-asthenic syndrome first described by professor (dr) narendra wig as 'dhat syndrome'.
Females also suffer from an equivalent syndrome characterized by excessive vaginal discharge or leucorrhea, which is again considered a" precicious fluid.
Reassurance and proper education is the mainstay of treatment. Many times counseling, anti-anxiety and anti-depressant medications are needed.

We adults know best, right?
Relevant offers
When I first heard the term, "helicopter parent", I assumed it was a criticism of laid-back parents who just buzz in and buzz out of their children's lives. Drop in and drop out, fairly ineffectively.
OPINION: Or perhaps, and this is particularly pertinent this week, they just let things drift along until they have to make like a rescue helicopter.
This is what I did when I arrived home to find the off-colour, golden-haired teenager in the grip of a fever, burning up in the hottest room in the house imagining she was shivering under a double layer of duvets.
I panicked quietly.
Windows open, cold flannel on the forehead, panadol, fan on, water, another cold flannel and more water.
Followed by out of the bed, a back rub, a change of sheets and restoration of calm.
But I was surprised to read deeper about this "helicopter parent" phenomenon and find that it is quite another quality of choppers involved.
It is about their ability to hover.
Given that the term "helicopter parent" was first used in America, even before my children were born, I feel a little shame-faced about my ignorance.
Clearly, I have not been paying sufficient attention to the musings of the experts, who could have better informed my make-it-up-as-you-go approach to raising children.
But, on the other hand, it could be that I have been wise to keep parenting manuals and parenting advice at a distance, and hope that my instincts and a sprinkling of common sense will be enough to help my children grow up reasonably untraumatised.
However, I felt obliged to do some research about the helicopter issue.
I took an on-line quiz that told me I was doing fine and had found a healthy balance somewhere between over-protecting my kids, and leaving them to their own devices.
I could do better, though, the results suggested most politely.
I could nudge the offspring a little less gently in the direction of developing their own independence.
The answers I gave invited such an interpretation.
But anyway, having established that I am not a helicopter parent, for reasons that are the opposite of what I had assumed, I can now mock.
My interest was alerted by a recent clutch of articles about how over-involved parents are organising their grown-up children's tertiary education and daily schedules.
The children of such parents, surprise, surprise, are more likely to be depressed and less satisfied with their lives than those whose parents had a party to celebrate when they left home.
The syndrome includes, but is not limited to, behaviours such as choosing study courses, micro-managing study regimes, contacting tutors, providing daily advice on household chores ("Just bring your laundry round at the weekend, dear") and generally checking up on the offspring all the time.
It is a natural progression for parents who started planning their children's careers before they even started school, making sure they went to the right schools, had the "best" teachers, had individualised learning programmes and did their homework every night; and blamed the teachers, quite loudly and personally, when the offspring failed to flourish.
Technology has made the offences easier to commit, the cellphone obviously a much more effective umbilical cord than anything that was previously available. (That was not an original thought either).
I can see how it would be possible to fall into any or all of these bad habits.
Of course parents worry about the kids.
It is a fundamental part of the job description.
We also feel guilty when we abandon the kids to figure things out for themselves and things come unstuck.
Perhaps I should not have allowed my daughter to become so ill before interfering.
Firstly, I let her come to a family celebration even though she had confessed to being a little bit sick, with a cough for emphasis, when she should have stayed indoors.
I let her stay on without me, outnumbered by probation officers who said they would look after her.
All weekend I let her carry on with her theory that an illness ignored was an illness overcome, until I ended up having conversations with a laptop.
I am not making this up.
She lost her voice so comprehensively, she became dependent on a voice device she found on the internet somewhere, that spoke to me in disembodied American.
"May I have some ice cream please?" "Thank you mother."
"Ha ha," I typed in.
"Hunga," it replied.
Eventually she grew tired of the effort required and slumped into bed.
Would it have made any difference if she'd rolled over and given in to being sick earlier?
Well, I don't know.
Parents don't always know best and perhaps it's best to admit it sooner rather than later, and leave the kids to figure things out for themselves.

Great Mexican restaurant in Northwest Tennessee. Owned and operated by two Mexican brothers and their families. Ice cold draft beer, great bar, wonderful Margaritas. But the food is terrific. I highly recommend the fajitas, taco salads, and even the del mar (seafood) menu is great. Wonderful service, generous portions. The families also own and operate La Canasta next to the campus of the University of Tennessee at Martin. It's great too, but is more of a lunch place. You can't go wrong either place. Better than any Mexican restaurant in Memphis or Nashville, that's for sure!
