Requirements for Breeding in and outside of Germany.
There has been some heated discussion recently (late 2005) about clubs in the UK, USA, and Australasia adhering to the rules of the SV, the perpetual extending of the SV's "deadlines" to conform to world Standards, and allied topics. A Körung classification is required for registrable breeding in Germany, and it has always been encouraged for other members of the WUSV. If I may, I'd like to offer (my translation of) the rules as they pertain to a couple of the key arguments or statements in the current exchanges; I am sure these will clarify the matter in the minds of some of the people who've been in the middle of the discussion:
A busy (vocally, but not otherwise active in dogs) e-mailer from Australasia, who has incidentally ignored my translations of the Zuchtordnung (breeders' rules) and other SV documents, has made some more erroneous statements lately. One was, "in Germany, a GSD can be bred… doesn't NEED to undergo a Körung…" That is not true. As you will read below, in excerpts from my translations (found on several websites), GSDs there need a qualifying result in a breed survey in order for their offspring to be registered as purebred GSDs. And in order to get that, they need a tattoo, DNA, working title, AD, and approved hips ("a"-stamp or equivalent). Normal elbows will be added soon.
That same Internet contributor of arguments said, "…in Australia, Britain, N. America and New Zealand it needs neither SchH nor a Breed Survey classification before being bred". That is true to the extent that he means "…in order to get listed with the major dog registry of that particular country". Unfortunately, the SV/WUSV plays footsies with such entities as the AKC and other non-FCI members instead of favoring those clubs that adhere to the SV's own rules and standards, such as USCA. (See my website article on "Different Dog Organizations" such as found on www.SiriusDog.com and other places.) To honestly claim the name of German Shepherd Dog, such requirements really should be met.
That Kiwi also quoted "a long-standing member of the SV… who has been in our breed for more than 40 years", saying, "her beliefs are the same as mine as to what the SV requires for litter registration." Unfortunately, the lady he quoted did not have the rules handy and would not be talking with an SV official for another month. He (or they) were mistaken in those ideas, as a reading of the rules in either language easily shows. By saying, "The best I, as a non-speaker of German, have been able to do in the absence of anyone telling me where the SV's own litter-registration regulations are available is to refer to the USCA web-site". Although I seldom use Google, I'm sure that a brief search in the right locations would easily have turned up my English-language rules (USCA does not carry them, to their loss). If any website manager still cannot find them, and would like to carry my translations of the Standard, breed survey, breeding, and IPO/SchH rules, you can e-mail me at email@example.com and I'll be happy to send them for your site.
The man also says, "except for the USofA), the bite-work aspect of DogSport is severely frowned on by politicians and kennel controls". He should not have excepted the U.S., because Americans have a really enormous headache with local and State dog laws being written by non-dog-owning politicians. In the U.S., there are a multitude of anti-dog, breed-specific laws that overwhelm the dog owner associations that have to use their own money to fight those unconstitutional and false-fable-based laws one at a time. The AKC (what he might call a "kennel control", I'm guessing) has been anti-dogsport since the mid-1980s at least, and only recently has allowed some clubs to practice schutzhund without being thrown out of the AKC (small loss though that would be!), as long as they do it nearly out of sight.
SV Rules for breeders and registration (Fred Lanting translation):
3.2 Tattooers
For the purpose of identification, the puppies are tattooed in the club's district. Tattooing them is a requirement for registration in the "studbook" (official SV records of GSDs, also known as "breed book").
4. Breed Value and Breeding Requirements
4.1 Breed Value
4.1.1 Dogs Admitted to the Gene Pool
To be allowed breeding rights in the SV system, all dogs must be entered in the studbook, and possess on the date of mating a training degree such as SchH 1-3, IP 1-3, HGH, or an equivalent acknowledged training degree, obtained under an SV judge [that applies to German-resident dogs]. The SchH or IP title must include a score of at least 80 points in phase C (protection). In addition, at an SV conformation show or breed survey they must have the breed evaluation of at least "Good", and have both the "a" stamp for hips and a DNA archives number marked in the Ahnentafel. The DNA record is essential for dogs born after July 1, 1999. For dogs bred in foreign countries, which are to be bred in Germany, the DNA information is required regardless of their whelping dates. Two classes of breeding animals are hereby distinguished.
4.1.2 Dogs "Suitable" (Allowed) for Breeding
Dogs suitable for breeding are those that get classification 2 (Körklasse-2) at an SV breed survey.
4.1.3 Dogs "Recommended" for Breeding
Dogs recommended for breeding are those that get classification 1 (Kkl-1) at an SV breed survey.
4.1.4 Dogs Not Qualified or Suitable for Breeding (not allowed to breed — to have registrable offspring)
- not meeting the requirements under 4.1.1 to 4.1.3
- dogs from the working dog records of the SV (a classification of working dogs not necessarily purebred or breedworthy but that are actively in service)
- dogs with the following defects:
- poor/weak in character, biting and nervous dogs
- known "severe HD"
- unilateral and bilateral cryptorchids
- incorrect ear and/or tail faults
- any deformities
- tooth faults as follows:
- are missing:
- 1 premolar-3 and 1 further tooth
- or 1 fang
- or 1 premolar-4
- or 1 molar-1
- or 1 molar-2
- or any 3 or more teeth.
(The absence of the molar-3 is of no consequence if such dogs have the original presence of the tooth proven and confirmed on the Ahnentafel.)
- considerable pigment faults, also blues
- long-coats, with or without noticeable undercoat
- tooth (bite) faults: more than 2 mm overshot*; undershot
- over- and/or undersize by more than 1 cm: Males 66 cm / bitches 61 cm max. (Kkl-2 is possible if over 65/60 cm but not over the maximum.)
- bitches that have given birth three times with Caesarean (C-section)
- the pectineus muscle having been cut
- Surgical operations on a dog for the purpose of correction or for acquisition and/or improvement of a breed survey (examples: ears, tail, teeth, testicles) will result in a breeding prohibition and legal proceedings against the owners.
The breeding value of dogs described under 4.1.4 listed dog is considerably limited. They are not to be used, therefore, for breeding. Should there be any progeny from these dogs, they are ineligible for entry in the studbook of the SV. The owners of these dogs are informed by registered letter about the decision, regarding the uselessness to the breed, immediately upon being known to the breed book office. Objection to the decision is possible 14 days after delivery, at the latest. If there is an objection, the studbook manager decides in the first instance, and in case of further objection, the SV president or the Chief Breed Warden makes the definite, final decision.
Under 4.1.5, there is this statement: "Inbreeding closer than 2-3 or 3-2 (including with siblings of those dogs) is not allowed. (Linebred 2-3 is the maximum.)"
And, this additional was published by the SV in the SID Issue #1, Jan. 2001 as
- "Der Zuchtausschuss informiert" (Fred's excerpts and editing/revising of original translation by Susanne Stramm; Note: IPO rules replaced slightly different SchH rules):
9. Only animals that are strong, healthy and not genetically defective, and that are representative of the breed may be used in breeding. They must also be in accordance with the breed regulations. Admissible are all dogs that are registered in the SV breed book who, when they are bred to, have a title in accordance with the Trial regulations (SchH/IPO 1-3, passed with a minimum of 80 points in C, or HGH or an equivalent), have received a show rating of G (minimum) at an SV show, have the "a" stamp and have a DNA registration number. In addition, the HD breed value may not be above 100 (the average of the two dogs' HD ZW). Dogs that have been bred in a foreign country must also have proof of a "DNA tested" stamp, and must show promise to be good for the breed with respect to temperament.
10. When used for breeding, males must be (on the day of the breeding) 2 years old. Females must have completed their 20th month (when first used for breeding).
And on January 1, 2002, this became effective:
"Furthermore, dogs born after 1 July, 1999 must have a DNA verification (proven ancestry). Dogs that have been bred in a foreign country and are to be used in breeding in Germany must also have the DNA verification regardless of the date of birth. Blood samples will no longer be required — a cheek swab, as is done in the U.S., will be acceptable. This can be done at the time of tattooing, for example."
The above may be reprinted. Please remember to give proper credit for the translation by SV Auslander judge and author of The Total German Shepherd Dog, Fred Lanting, www.MrGSD.com
Part of the recent Internet discussion that I referred to earlier quoted from a speech made by a former SV officer and chief körmeister, Helmut Buss, on the occasion of his judging in England early in 2005. Some of those observations may be pertinent to this article's main thrust of breeding requirements.
Buss said, "…emphasis is being placed on the German Shepherd as a 'sport' dog, where the owners involved are not interested in breed type so long as the dog works to a high standard. This cannot be the right attitude." He is quite right. There is far too much linebreeding in both the working-lines and the hochzuchtlinie ("high-lines" or "showdogs"). Otherwise brilliant Helmut Raiser shot himself in the political foot when he intimated that we should crossbreed Malinois into the GSD family to improve high-scoring performance. But we definitely should be mixing the better-working show dogs into the BSP-competition bloodlines, and the better-structured working-line dogs into the show-dog bloodlines. Judges and körmeisters also should be tougher on which showdogs get the "pronounced" description at the courage tests.
"Of the highest placed males [in 2004], 44% of them were Ursus sons or grandsons, and this is unhealthy for the gene pool." Indeed! That is why the use of such dogs as Ando Altenbergerland, Orbit Tronje, Timo Berrekasten, and their offspring should be encouraged by placings in the show rings as well as in verbal recommendations and breed warnings by judges.
Buss also said, "many people are not able to do schutzdienst and some do not want a schutzhund dog." Quite true. They should be allowed to own a dog that is listed as a GSD, but if it does not conform to the breeding requirements, its breed name should not be inherited by any offspring. There are many "pet homes" for longcoats, as there are for non-titled, non-breeding GSDs.
"DNA tests must be done", he said. I'm sure he felt a pang in his heart when he said that, because his magnificent and valuable-to-the-breed Hoss Lärchenhain failed to get a VA because DNA had showed his ancestry to be not what it had been represented to be on paper. He also said, "The Sieger Show must be seen to be judged honestly, as Germany is becoming a laughing-stock". That also must have been hard for him to say, because he had been accused of violating that principle himself at the 1999 Sieger Show, following which he got kicked out of his jobs as chief judge of females and körmeister. When I ran into him again at the 2005 show, he immediately brought up the fact that I had reported on his fall and the charges made, and seemed to blame me for his falling out of favor with the SV (which happened well before I had said anything about the reported scandal).
As David Payne in the UK says (I slightly edited his comments), "I would strongly advise that all SV members who live in Australia… write to Wolfgang Henke, president of the SV & WUSV. Send an email to his attention at: email@example.com and ask very simply and briefly, "How does the SV view the situation in Australia, with particular regard to the GSDCA/ANKC negative attitude and behaviour towards Schutzhund?" To that I would add a recommendation that people in other countries also put the pressure on the SV to stop dilly-dallying — to crack down on such organizations as the GSDCA/AKC, the GSDC of Canada/CKC, as well as the UK's Kennel Club and GSD clubs in Britain, which have been sidestepping the so-called requirements for too many years already.
The SV-WUSV has also been far too reticent to protect the name and nature of the breed. What they should have done a long time ago (and it's not too late) is to take over the registration of all German Shepherd Dogs, possibly even as far as supporting legal moves to deny using the name or any international recognition to any dogs not fitting into the Standard description and breeding regulations. If that is too big a chunk of meat to swallow, they could at least deny recognition to the GSDCAmerica and GSDCCanada. Since AKC will never bow the knee (nor will CKC or The Kennel Club of the UK curtsey), the WUSV should pressure FCI to exclude GSDs from recognition as AKC (etc.) breeds, and recognize the GSD only if registered with the WUSV. The efforts of the SV to persuade such independent countries' dog registries (such as the above-mentioned) to adhere to a unified Standard of anatomy and performance has failed, and will always fail, unless some stronger measures are taken.
So, when you write to the SV, express your thoughts on separate (non-AKC/CKC/ANKC/KC/etc.) status for clubs that are willing and eager to conform to the world standards. Tell Herr Henke that there should be full recognition/registration of purebred GSDs who meet the WUSV standards regardless of whether or not they have affiliation with those non-compliant national registries.

Mayan timekeeper Carlos Barrios said in 2012 that we are no longer in the Fourth World but not yet in the Fifth World. Blavatsky (Theosophy) first wrote about the root races in 1888. That is 125 years, in contrast to several hundred years. She wrote that the Vedas were delivered in India about 5,000 years ago because the largest number of fifth round souls who worked in synthesis had incarnated there. We are still a fourth round race because the majority incarnate on the planet are fourth round minds. The fifth root race, which expands in seven subraces, is still getting rooted.
Adults were showing signs of fifth round evolution in the 19th century, because the energy that is activating evolved characteristics affects everybody. Some minds deal with it more adeptly than others do.
PMH Atwater;
PLEASE do NOT paint Monsanto, Ortho, Bayer, etc. as benevolent alterers of human DNA for the purpose of species advancement!
These companies are altering our food crops WITHOUT our knowledge, WITHOUT our consent, and for their own selfish reasons (i.e. PROFIT)!
You are WAY OFF BASE in suggesting that these alterations to plant DNA can only be good/beneficial to the human race (and other species as well)! As far as anyone knows, these Big Agriculture companies have done little to no research as to the long-term effects of how their "Franken-plants" may affect those who consume them, nor have they cared to share their results if they have researched - and that, in my book, is CRIMINAL. We are NOT their Guinea Pigs, to be used and disposed of at whim!
I keep hearing about these "new children" who can link minds for a group purpose, ie., Atwater's statement, "They think as a collective; they work as a collective." Paraphrasing Atwater, she states... There seems to be something like a hive-mind process being injected into the human race.
OK, as neat as this might sound for environmental reasons, I'm thinking HIVE-MINDEDNESS sounds like it will usurp our FREE-WILL as individuals. We will no longer BE individuals any longer... people will be like ants or bees.
I wonder WHO is orchestrating this "hive-mindedness" and WHY? Who are the hive's controllers?
If this is really happening, I'm thinking the Grays, Reptiod, (Tall Whites?) etc., are getting close to "mission accomplished!" Have all the genetic experimentations, all the egg and sperm collections from abductions been about these OTHER entities engineering our NEW CHILDREN?
Please tell me, WHY do people like Atwater think this is so wonderful? I think this is PROPAGAND to bend minds to accept "hive-mentality."
It is our human EMOTIONS that make us so unique and marvelous... ie., our capacity to LOVE, our JOY, our HUMOR, our individual WIT, our ability to feel COMPASSION, SORROW or LOSS. These are rich and valuable textures in human existence. According to many "experiencers," humans are envied for these qualities.
While it is true that our capacity for anger, fear and other negative emotions exist, I have always felt that IT IS THE CONTRAST between basking in the light of GOD vs being lost in the dark, that we learn... that our soul grows and expands exponentially.
As humans, are we now supposed to agree to and accept the exchange of our rich and colorful emotional-body for a lop-sided intellectual body? Does anyone REALLY THINK THIS IS GOOD?
Is it really an evolutionary advancement to exchange our human hearts and emotions for a questionably problematic advance in IQ? Really? Look at all the GENIUS scientists who have engineered WMDs, frakenfood, chem-trails, mind-control!
Haven't you heard of children with Autism, Aspergers... totally rejecting emotional connections to parents and people in general. Is this a "leap forward?" I don't think so!
I appologize for the length of this, but I've waited a long time to object to the notion of "hive-mind" benefits, and I think this is the right place to make such objections
I agree with you 100 percent No apology needed. It all sounds like mind control the "hive mentality" is dangerous. It reminds me of Star Trek's the "Borg" to simulate and control us like mindless drones. The companies she mentioned to give incentives photo classes etc., are just another way to control our actives (give us a hobby they approve) Thos lady is nothing more than a mouth peace for the new world order
You do realize that individuality is more or less an illusion. We are all connected to whatever Consciousness springs forth from (GOD, The Universe, ETC.) and on a quantum level everything is one. The whole notion of I is what is causing most of the problems on this planet today. Greed and selfishness runs the world controlled by people who believe in the I above all else when in fact there is no I.
From a different angle we have the inefficiency of verbal communication. Linking minds and being able to bypass the arduous job of trying to communicate advanced ideas using crude vocalizations has to happen to move mankind to the next level not to mention the problems of different languages and all of the problems that come along with them.
In terms of the sad cases of Autism and ADD and other problems as mentioned by Phyllis Duran above "Some minds deal with it more adeptly than others do." The minds that cant adapt and grow are weeded out as most of these advanced cases will probably never reproduce.
masonfomoco the "Borg" are a completely "Human" invention. Did you ever think that this idea was injected into the Consciousness of Humanity just to have the effect of making people fear a perfectly natural progression?
I hope that what PMH Atwater was trying to convey is that the presently incarnating wave of humanity is in communication with higher spiritual forces and with each other in ways that the NSA cannot track or comprehend. If so they could be acting, not in lockstep, but in cooperation to deflect humanity from its suicidal stampede toward the cliffs.
Amen to that, Brock.
While yes, we ARE all connected, it's the *illusion* of separation that's such a gift to us here in this solid universe. I hope that that's not too much in jeopardy, as it creates a wealth of illusory experiences for us.
And the Grays (and others?) have expressed the idea that their lack of emotion is a hinderance, so let us hope that we maintain them as well, although tempered (sic) by intellect and wisdom.
Ms Atwater's advice about raising children echoes any reasonable parents' ideas.
She makes a lot of generalizations with an authoritative voice so I expect her book provides support for these facts although I don't think she could verify her statements about what is coming in the future. Yes, history repeats itself.
Each generation is an improvement on the last. This is called evolution.
What makes this researcher "distinguished?"
Listening to this lady left me slightly irritated, mostly at myself, for spending an hour on this.
I was disagreeing with her stance in the past on this issue re the children, and this interview solidifies our differences.
I have a much different opinion on how she interprets a lof of the stats she comes up with. The "balance" that is allegedly at work that keep the 1/3 ratios intact, imo, is simply nature dividing out what is actually a massive dysfunction in humanity, and trying to manage it.
The increased intelligence is no different from how savants have been seen in the past. That increased intelligence in one area, such as math, does not suddenly make that person more evolved. It could...I am open to that...but it more likely defines a serious dysfunction that does not uplift humanity, but is rather one of its challenges that we need to help them with. We can appreciate the "gifts" they have, but what good are these "gifts" to the rest of humanity when the person has no interpersonal skills with which to adequately share and spread this gift with.
It is how the masses are affected that defines the spiritual evolution; where is this current spiritual evolution with a huge influx of autistic and ADHD kids that are out of control in their behavior and unable to interface with the rest of humanity?
The past fifteen year stats match up almost perfectly with the influx of EMF pollution and GMO taking over our food supply. The kids are not "sensitive" to these things. It is my opinion they are living examples of VICTIMS of these things. What she is interpreting as a spiritual evolution, I see as a clearly defined spiritual stunting and retardation.
Are we all now going to benefit from kids who lack empathy (aspergers, I personally know one such kid), are so scatterbrained you can barely have a meaningful conversation for five seconds without them desperately needing some other form of stimuli, or those kids that can't even comprehend what a social interaction is to begin with via autism?
These are not growths. These are very...VERY...serious problems.
And God, suggesting the current political system can somehow help due to the jobs they can't work in, the service, etc, is WAY off where I'm at with the spiritual pursuit. There will be no spiritual evolution of any sort via government involvement. And this "collective" stuff is even more evidence of how wrong this problem is with our children. Communistic-type ideals, based on the leaders we have today in all areas of political ideology (corruption on all fronts) is absolutely not going in the right direction. Every single member of our current Congress needs to be booted out, and a great many of them need to be put up on criminal charges and jailed. They are the anti-spiritual growth mechanism for humanity that we are challenged with and have a responsibility to overcome. They most certainly are NOT our partners in ascension.
My heart and intuition scream at me that my insights are the correct ones. Let's not put what is actually a serious handicap and dysfunction on some sort of spiritual platform, when it is actually a clear sign and symptom of something that may actually be destroying humanity.
Who makes this woo-woo stuff up? This woman presents this as if it is scientific fact. It really drives me nuts.
Couldn't even make it half way through.
Atwater has put together bits and pieces of information that have been stretched way out of context. In "The Fourth Turning" William Strauss and Neil Howe argue that a four-generation cycle plays out continually in history. One can access any point in the historical timeline and find the four-generation sequence, with each generation spanning twenty years. This is simple cross-generational interchange that has no relationship with any generation being especially gifted as Atwater asserts. A 20-year cycle in the Mayan Tzolkin, the Human calendar, has a 20-year cycle that parallels this principle. A major cultural shift began in the late 19th century that is completely independent of the 20-year generational cycle. Blavatsky wrote about the root races as well as a grand cycle that began in 1897-98 involving all of humankind. The grand cycle is not limited to children. Blavatsky's prediction for the 20th century (after 1898) was remarkably accurate. Some young children are truly extraordinary, but some older people are too. Edgar Cayce talked about Atlanteans reincarnating in the 20th century, which was a major turning point as Blavatsky said it would be. The rise of disorders in children is remarkable, including children being born with deleted chromosomes because of heavy drug and alcohol use by their parents. Emphysema was virtually unheard of before 1940, but increased with higher levels of of nuclear and environmental contaminants. Autism and other learning disabilities almost certainly more directly result from environmental conditions rather than special qualities of Indigo, Crystal and especially gifted children.
maybe its not that the kids are getting smarter -- its the adults that are getting smart enough to notice the smart kids. I found as a primary school teacher that most children are rather brilliant until they go to school and find out that they (alledgedly) are not because they dont jump thru the appropriate hoops at the appropriate time.
On the other hand - - - If, indeed, there has been a actual leap in intelligence -- its odd that the surge in numbers has coincided with the technological ability to successfully impregnate a woman w/either sperm or eggs and sperm from another. This, to me, is the real reason for the power behind the anti-abortion movement. The NWO does not want anyone messing w/their eugenics program.
I find all the propaganda about the "new" children being the end all and be all of our world misleading and quite purposeful. Perhaps Atwater's world is designed in such a way that she meets a lot of the manipulated children who are heavily programmed and have had their brains rewired and their souls enslaved at a young age (welcome to the NWO), but this is a sad thing -- not something to be applauded. Most humans are quite amazing (brilliant and talented) when our cultural programming and self-doubts are removed (as they can be when we are drugged and hypnotized by experts). Its very sad that, for the most part, only the enemies of humanity understand this.
It's definitely about the NWO, but we're not looking in the right places for roots of the NWO to turn around its influence. Seeds of the NWO were sowed when the Lord restrained humans by confounding their language and scattering them at the Tower of Babel, which I estimate was 10,000 years ago at the end of glacial floods. The Christians got the timeline wrong because they used lifespans of Adam's descendants to count. It was just plain silly, but that's what happens when people are confounded.
The Earth was moving away from a mysterious energy center and mental virtue was declining 10,000 years ago, according to Hindu sages. We began moving closer to the center again in 499 CE and entered a significant curve in 1899. Mental virtue has increased, but human languages and civilization are so scattered and conflicted now that gathering resources for important change is wasted in things like closing down American embassies in the week this interview was posted. In order to liberate resources for survival, we must understand the craziness of confounded languages and conflicting fragments of scattered civilization.
The first step is to understand how humanity was restrained, and that the agenda has been managed through religion and economics for 10,000 years to emerge as the NWO in 1899, as if it is something new. It's an old, old agenda to restrain and manage humanity for the benefit of the elite classes the old gods hybridized to rule common humans. The Greeks and Romans had lists of aristocrats with one human and one divine parents. They even told us their names. They are the same old faces with new names, and their job is to secure the planet for the gods who bred them.
The good news is that the characteristics that made the aristocrats good rulers over other humans are the exact qualities that are their undoing. They're stuck in a holding pattern and can't get out of it to deal with changing conditions. The bad news is that the collateral damage from their management programs promises to be severe. Start with HAARP and GMO, which control the atmosphere and food supply.
I as per other forum contributors found this last Dreamland's subject matter- particularly irritating. Given that portions of the mental health profession believe there is such a significant overlap between the symptomology of Autism spectrum disorders and Post traumatic stress disorder, that essentially PTSD is seen as acquired Autism- where exactly does that place veterans of war and victims/ survivors of sex crime?
Following the same rationale of the subject matter herewith presented-are the aforementioned "lucky" or something? Should we blow up some other country - say Canada given it would be cheaper than some where in the middle east, to help spread the gift of traumatic illness to all those young and no so young service people that missed out at birth?
Though an interesting observation that laterally extends from the conception of Autism and trauma as interrelated is that both render large numbers of people rather dysfunctional, disabled or both. Not to mention how difficult Autism can make life for family or the effect of the Gulf war vet gone nuts with an armalite at your local gas station. That is with reference to the hypotheses, some variants of which are detailed in other posts, about "powers that be"- whatever their nature and constitution, imposing a dumbing down on society for purposes of control.
Considering Graham Hancock/ Robert Duval's "The Master Game" (2011) in which it is detailed the interrelated mass human suffering caused over millennia by the Catholic Church which probably caused freemasonry among other secret societies to become characterised as they have by today- how many brilliant thinkers, how much of recorded history ( i.e.- records of Atlantis burned along with the great library of Alexandria) and social progress was both destroyed and retarded in development. By a large centralised organisation claiming to represent (an alleged) god.
I got the impression the authors while not specifically stating it, were presenting a scenario of world history in which various wide reaching organisations were being played off as pawns against each other to seemingly prolong the dark ages. So the question that many of these perceptions engenders it is often suggested is some group terrestrial or other running the world by social manipulation for its' own ends.
It is not hard to see where some top down concepts of NWO using chemicals, starting wars and generating human suffering could be perceived as part of maintaining control.
In particular, conditions like autism spectrum disorders and traumatic disorders would seem to be an effective way of controlling large numbers of the population. Well causing such persons enough problems of their own to cause any for other people as well as the financial and social cost of mass disability.
A few wars every so often, bit of organochlorine here and some roundup there. Touch of Alien abduction and pinches of Church child abuse.
After all, individuals like Franklin Roosevelt demonstrate you can still be pretty dangerous even when physically destroyed by polio and wheelchair bound - he still managed to get rid of a couple of Empires. Seems you have to get at the human mind to impose real control.
lots of comments on this one!!! everyone should see a documentary called "Generation Rx" about drugging our poor kids due to adhd. I found it on Canadian Netflix. happy hunting.
I found everything she has to say in these interviews very plausible and positive. As someone born in the mid 50's I too see the new generations of children, especially ones that came out of the 1960's cultural revolutions, to be so smart, loving and creative. Each generation is allowing their children to express their innate potentials a lot more than their parents allowed them. And each new generation is loving their children more, stifling them less.
It's very exciting and hopeful.
Also us human can have both the ability to be deeply individualistic at times and engage in group mind at other times. It doesn't have to be just one way or the other. What wonderful abilities to work/play with!!
I couldn't even finish this interview. The woman annoyed me for some reason. And she does not seem to back up her statements with facts. Like someone said earlier - maybe she does in her book. Every time she laughed I thought she sounded a bit unhinged.
I'm confused by your middle paragraph. Perhaps I have misunderstood the point you're making.
Many, perhaps most, involved in the prolife movement would happily see IVF and other assisted reproduction technologies banned along with abortion. To the most conservative within the prolife movement, even the use of the husband's sperm in artificial insemination is a violation of natural law. Moreover, women/couples who resort to those technologies are going to be very unlikely to resort to abortion. The powers-that-be have little need for concern that those much-wanted
pregnancies, manipulated or not, will be ended intentionally.
The use of donor sperm in artificial insemination (which in its simplest form does not even necessitate a medical practitioner) in humans dates back to the 1880's. Does the eugenics program you refer to go back that far? (I am posing the question seriously, not sarcastically.) Ova transfer is of course much more recent.
If children are being manipulated/rewired/programmed, it is (IMO) through means more ubiquitous than assisted reproduction.
I completely agree with Garfie. This corporate behavior is not only criminal, in my opinion, it is psychopathic. The people of this country must make our voices heard to restore whatever we may of the pristine world we deserve. It is time to withdraw our energies from this heartless nightmare of reality and dream a new life of Unity and respect for ALL life.

Emergency medical services (EMS) workers provide pre-hospital emergency medical care. Their duties create an inherent risk for on-the-job injuries and illnesses. Research shows that EMS workers have high rates of fatal injuries and nonfatal injuries and illnesses.
Who are EMS workers?
Vital to disaster response, EMS workers include: first responders, emergency medical technicians (EMT), paramedics, and others whose titles may not always suggest their EMS duties. For example, firefighters and nurses may provide pre-hospital emergency care as part of their routine job duties.
The 2011 National EMS Assessment reported a total of 826,000 licensed and credentialed EMS professionals in the United States. This estimate includes paid and volunteer EMS workers. The 2015 Current Population Survey estimate for full-time employed EMTs and paramedics was 241,600.
What job hazards do EMS workers face?
EMS workers face many potential job hazards, including:
- Lifting patients and equipment
- Treating patients with infectious illnesses
- Handling hazardous chemical and body substances
- Participating in the emergency transport of patients in ground and air vehicles
How is NIOSH working to prevent EMS injuries and illnesses?
Collaborating with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, Office of Emergency Medical Services, NIOSH uses the occupational supplement to the National Electronic Injury Surveillance System ( NEISS-Work ) to collect data on nonfatal injuries and illnesses among EMS workers.
In 2014, there were an estimated 21,300 injuries and illnesses among EMS workers that were treated in U.S. hospital emergency departments. The most recent injury and illness data are described in the data section of this topic page.
There are a number of other coordinated efforts by various Federal agencies to improve occupational safety and health for EMS workers. Information on some of these efforts is available at www.ems.gov.

UnitedHealth Group Inc.'s third-quarter net income edged slightly lower as medical costs climbed and some health care use picked up, but the insurer's revenue grew and it raised its 2011 earnings forecast.
The Minnetonka, Minn., managed care company's medical claims paid rose 7 percent to $18.41 billion compared to last year's quarter, mainly due to price increases. UnitedHealth also said Tuesday it saw a "modest increase" in utilization trends for doctor's offices and outpatient care.
UnitedHealth and other insurers have turned in strong performances over the past few quarters in part because health care use has grown at a slower rate than they expected when they set premiums. Analysts say utilization growth tends to slow after a recession, as consumers pull back on their health care spending.
Insurers have said they expect use trends to return to normal levels later this year. Utilization typically picks up in the second half of the year after people pay off their deductibles and seek care before the deductibles renew in the new year.
But Leerink Swann analyst Jason Gurda said in a Tuesday morning research note he was "somewhat perplexed" by the insurer's report of an increase in doctor's office utilization because data points suggest a year-over-year decline in use.
UnitedHealth, the largest U.S. health insurer based on revenue, reported net income of $1.27 billion, or $1.17 per share, in the three months that ended Sept. 30. That compares with $1.28 billion, or $1.14 per share, in the same quarter last year, when the company had more shares outstanding. Revenue rose 7 percent to $25.28 billion.
Analysts forecast earnings of $1.12 per share on $25.41 billion in revenue.
The insurer said Tuesday that it now expects 2011 earnings to range between $4.40 and $4.45 per share on more than $101 billion in revenue. That compares with its previous forecast for earnings of $4.15 to $4.25 per share on $101 billion in revenue.
Analysts expect 2011 earnings of $4.39 per share on $101.5 billion in revenue.
UnitedHealth shares dropped 60 cents, or 1.3 percent, to $46 in premarket trading.
Revenue from UnitedHealth's largest segment, UnitedHealthcare, grew 6 percent to $23.64 billion, as the company's medical enrollment rose 5 percent to 34.4 million people compared to last year's quarter. UnitedHealthcare includes commercial coverage like employer-sponsored group insurance and government-funded Medicare and Medicaid business.
A 4 percent gain in commercial enrollment helped that segment's performance. Commercial insurance generally offers higher profit margins for insurers than government business.
UnitedHealth's Optum businesses, which focus on health services information and technology, recorded a 22 percent jump in revenue to $7.22 billion.
UnitedHealth is the first managed care company to report earnings each quarter and many analysts see it as a bellwether for the group. WellPoint Inc. reports third-quarter results Oct. 26, and Aetna Inc. follows the next day. Humana Inc. reports its earnings Oct. 31, and Cigna Corp. announces results Nov. 3.
Goldman Sachs analyst Matthew Borsch said in a research note UnitedHealth's performance bodes well for the sector, although he believes strong results are already broadly expected.

Lunch Matters launches in Lone Tree
Breakfast, as most of us know, is ballyhooed as the most important meal of the day, but for Abby Aronsohn, an alum of Cook Street School of Culinary Arts, lunch matters most -- and Lunch Matters just happens to be the name of her new fast-casual soup-and-sandwich cafe that recently opened in Lone Tree, at 9064 Forsstrom Drive, just south of Park Meadows Shopping Center.
"This is my rebellion against bad sandwiches -- a return to the real, fresh food that lunch can and should be," explains Aronsohn. "Knowing how many of us eat on the run or at our desks," she adds, "a Lunch Matters sandwich is made with care, well-proportioned and evenly distributed to deliver deliciousness in each bite, with little mess."
Everything, she says, in made in-house, and her menu, divided into "Classic Matters" -- traditional sandwiches heaped with classic ingredients -- and "More Matters," which Aronsohn describes as sandwiches "amped up with a gourmet twist," are sided with coleslaw, potato salad or chips.
Lunch Matters is open Monday through Friday from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. for walk-in customers and pick-up orders; Aronsohn notes, too, that delivery service is forthcoming. For more info, call 720-328-8691.

Cameron Park resident Ken Pimlott, 45, was appointed director of the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection by Gov. Jerry Brown on July 12.
As the new director, Chief Pimlott will be in charge of most of the operational aspects of Cal Fire. Among numerous other duties he will represent the department on national committees, address different fire policies at the federal level and work with the Legislature on budget issues that affect the department.
Pimlott enters into this position with more than 26 years of fire protection service, having worked with Cal Fire for 23 years. He began his career as a seasonal fire fighter in the Tulare Unit in 1987 and eventually rose up to many different ranks within the department.
He worked in executive management at the assistant deputy director level and also served as the deputy director of fire protection. He was later appointed as acting director in November 2010 until reaching his current position of Cal Fire director.
"I feel honored to serve the administration — to not only work for the governor, but to work for the people of California," said Pimlott during a phone interview Friday. "Public service is very rewarding."
Aside from working in the fire protection field for several years, Pimlott also received an Associate of Arts degree in Fire Technology from American River College, and a Bachelor's degree in Forest Resource Management from Humboldt State University. His education and experience have helped shape many goals for his new appointment.
"A very high priority goal is to continue to improve and better our cooperative relationship with local government and our federal partners," said Pimlott when asked what he hoped to achieve during his appointment. "Another goal is to provide the most efficient, streamlined delivery of our resource management program, particularly the forest practice program, so that we ensure compliance with all of the forest practice rules and laws."
Pimlott looks forward to serving the public and providing the best management and operation of Cal Fire as possible.
"I am extremely excited to step into this new role," said Pimlott. "I look forward to the future and to all of the opportunities that are presented."

Ratings for Dr. Janja Viltuznik
Dr. Viltuznik is not only very knowledgeable in her field, she is also a doctor who cares about her patients and their well being. I would highly recommend her to anyone and I continue to see she as needed.
Staff is terrible. It is impossible to get a same day appointment so must resort to Urgent Care. Even cancer symptoms were not considered important enough and received a "can you call back tomorrow" on two successive calls which delayed a diagnosis for nearly 3 months! Dr V herself seems competent and caring, but her inaccessability is a deal breaker. The way the office is run is ultimately the responsibility of the doctor.
I LOVE Dr. V. She is amazing. My whole family goes to her. I don't ever feel dumb asking her a question. Her response is always upbeat and knowledgeable. Dina in the back, is always so sweet and caring as well. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone.
Dr. V is the sweetest most caring MD I've ever encountered and I work in a hospital myself. She is always sympathetic and allows you to ask questions without making you feel dumb. She is very prompt and knowledgeable, and when it comes to referrals she will send you to someone she knows and trusts herself & her own family's care with. I can't say enough good things about her, she's just a genuinely great person & doctor.
Let me tell you about how AMAZING Dr. V is: she is thoughtful, caring, smart, prepared, knowledgeable, well-trained, patient, well-connected; the best doctor you could ask for. I don't wait long for the appts, she offers to come in early or stay late to see her patients and she gives you her undivided 110% attention when she is with you. Plus, she is a wonderful friend. FIVE STARS FOR THIS WONDERFUL GOD-SEND!!
I have used Dr. Viltuznik for five years now, and I have been very happy with her treatment of me on professional and personal levels. She has referred me out of her office for testing when necessary, and always listens to my issues.

Curry Spice May Fight Alzheimer's
Tue Jan 4, 2005 11:58 PM ET
By Amy Norton
NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - The pigment that gives curry spice its yellow hue may also be able to break up the "plaques" that mark the brains of Alzheimer's disease patients, early research suggests.
Scientists found that curcumin, a component of the yellow curry spice turmeric, was able to reduce deposits of beta-amyloid proteins in the brains of elderly lab mice that ate curcumin as part of their diets.
In addition, when the researchers added low doses of curcumin to human beta-amyloid proteins in a test tube, the compound kept the proteins from aggregating and blocked the formation of the amyloid fibers that make up Alzheimer's plaques.
Accumulation of beta-amyloid proteins in the brain is one of the hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease.
The new findings suggest that curcumin could be capable of both treating Alzheimer's and lowering a person's risk of developing the disease, said study co-author Dr. Gregory M. Cole of the University of California Los Angeles and the Greater Los Angeles Veterans Affairs Healthcare System.
Cole and his colleagues have gotten funding to begin a small trial in humans suffering from Alzheimer's disease.
"The big question is how high are the doses we need to fight Alzheimer's and are they really safe in elderly patients?" he told Reuters Health.
The current findings, published online recently by the Journal of Biological Chemistry, add to the body of research pointing to curcumin's medicinal value. Long used as part of traditional Indian medicine, curcumin is now under study as a potential cancer therapy, and animal research has suggested the compound might serve as a treatment for multiple sclerosis and cystic fibrosis.
Interest in curcumin as an Alzheimer's therapy grew after studies found low rates of the disease among elderly adults in India, where curry spice is a dietary staple.
Curcumin is structurally similar to a stain known as Congo red, which is used by pathologists to identify amyloid protein in autopsied brain tissue in order to confirm a diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease after a patient's death.
Curcumin can also stain amyloid deposits, Cole said, but it has the additional ability, when eaten or injected, to cross into a living animal's brain and bind to amyloid deposits.
What's more, he explained, curcumin is an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent, and it appears to counter the oxidative damage and inflammation that arises in response to amyloid accumulation.
"It attacks both the amyloid and the response to amyloid," Cole said.
Because oxidative damage and inflammation mark a number of diseases of aging - such as arthritis and the buildup of plaques in the heart's arteries - Cole said he and his colleagues hope that curcumin eventually proves useful for a range of age-related conditions.

It was bad enough to have no palpable adversary to grapple with: it was worse to have no specific charge.
If I am not to know the specific charge against him, I will not assume cognizance of the case.
He had already been arrested and discharged, there being no specific charge brought against him.
The specific charge was that he had refused to give alcohol to one of his patients who was supposed to need it.
M. Galpin is our enemy; but we can make no specific charge against him.
If I had done wrong, let them accuse me—give me a specific charge and due notice of trial, and let me prepare for my defence.
Indeed, that specific charge could hardly be urged, because no proof was forthcoming.
The specific charge was that he had fraudulently obtained valuable city land in the heart of the city without paying for it.
Of what are these Italians accused, that is what is the present specific charge against them?
The specific charge was that of "treason in levying war against the United States."

Georgia's players got out of scheduled conditioning work Tuesday thanks to reserve offensive guard Chester Adams.
"The highlight of practice was if Cheese would stand up and sing, 'Chestnuts roasting on an open fire,' in front of team, no one would have to run conditioning," Coach Mark Richt said. "He did a great job."
Tight end Martrez Milner is practicing in a green jersey due to a shoulder injury. Defensive tackle Ray Gant is practicing with a club cast over his right hand due to broken knuckles. He likely will have to wear it during the Sugar Bowl.
LOTTERY WINNER: Former player Albert Hollis, who left the team due to a knee injury but still works as a student coach, is the big winner in the Bulldogs' travel reimbursement sweepstakes. Hollis will be paid for the round trip mileage from his home in Sacramento, Calif., to the Sugar Bowl site in Atlanta. He will receive a check for more than $2,500.
FRESH FACES: Asher Allen made his first impression on Georgia's practice field Tuesday morning. The early enrollee was working with the scout team on kickoff returns when he split the Bulldogs' varsity defense for a long return.
"How about that return man?" Coach Mark Richt yelled. Allen and wide receiver Kris Durham of Calhoun High School are part of the Bulldogs' 2006 signing class but have enrolled in school early and are participating in practice this week. Allen was recruited to Georgia as a cornerback but played plenty of offense at Tucker High School and could become a weapon in the return game.
"I feel comfortable with the ball in my hand, guarding somebody, whatever," he said after his return. "I just love football really."
Asher and Durham will only be able to practice until the team moves its practices to Atlanta, site of the Sugar Bowl. Still, both have been glad to come out and get a taste of college football.
"Now I kind of know what to expect and how to work," Durham said. "This is so much different that I'm glad I did this. I kind of got my feet wet. Now, I'll know what to expect this spring."

NRI businessman Ravi Rishi has been summoned by the CBI for interrogations related to alleged irregularities in the supply of all terrain Tatra trucks. The Tatra trucks, that comes from UK based Vectra group was supplied to the Indian Army via BEML. A case is likely to be registered soon. The Tatra trucks deal came under scrutiny following the allegations levelled by General VK Singh, stating that he was offered a bribe of Rs 14 crore bribe so that a file related to procurement of trucks could be cleared.
British national Rishi, on his part had accused the army chief for delaying the deal for 1500 trucks signed with his company for vested interests. Maintaining that there was nothing illegal about the deal signed by his company, Rishi stated that General Singh had an inclination towards giving over the deal to another enterprise named Ural.
The reference to CBI, directing a probe has been sought by the Defence Ministry. Based on the reference, the agency plans to register two cases: pertaining to the deal and pertaining to the bribe. Director of CBI, AP Singh has stated that a case must be registered, with a thorough investigation to proceed. However, CBI is waiting for Gen VK Singh to register a complaint before embarking on the probe.
BEML chief VRS Natarajan does not agree with the suspected interest of lobbyists in the placement of Tatra trucks. He said, "In last 26 years, from 1986 onwards, BEML assembled manufactured, supplied 7,000 Tatra trucks. All of them have been done on single nomination basis, single inquiry basis. This type of equipment nobody in world makes, because of its superior technological features. When I am the single vendor and there is no competition, there is no influence required."
Earlier Army Chief VK Singh alleged that Lt General Tejinder Singh, retired army officer had made an "offering a bribe of Rs 14 crore" on behalf of Vectra Group, the largest shareholder of the syndicate Tatra Holding. However, the Vectra Group has denied the allegation and says that the accusation is a cause of concern and anguish.
"We categorically state that Lt Gen Tejinder Singh has never been contacted for any purpose by Tatra and Tatra/Vectra Group does not have any business or any relation with him," said a statement by the company.

TransCanada Corp (NYSE:TRP), is currently on the verge of making one of the largest investments ever in the US--a CAD7.6 billion extension of its Keystone Pipeline System.
Keystone XL would dramatically increase the flow of Canadian tar sands output to US Gulf Coast refineries. That's made it immediately controversial, with the environmental lobby in the US claiming the pipeline would encourage more tar sands development--thus increasing global warming from carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, as well as emissions of scores of other pollutants.
The battle has pitted two key constituencies of President Obama against each other: environmental advocates, who see a focal point for their long war on oil, and labor unions, who see the opportunity for jobs. As a result the administration has basically delayed making a decision on the overall project -- which needs approval at the highest levels of government because it crosses national boundaries -- until after the November election.
That, however, hasn't stopped TransCanada from moving ahead on another segment of Keystone XL, an expansion of capacity from the currently bottlenecked energy hub at Cushing, Oklahoma, to the Gulf Coast refineries.
That's a CAD2.3 billion chunk of the overall expansion project, which the company expects to get up and running by mid- to late 2013.
Like all energy infrastructure companies TransCanada at its core is an invest-to-grow story. Every time it finances, contracts out and finally builds a pipeline, for example, the cash flow boosts profits, which triggers dividend growth and, eventually, a higher share price.
I've said many times that we'll know there's a top in the North American energy infrastructure market when companies start building in anticipation of higher demand rather than pre-contracting before starting to work. That definitely hasn't happened yet for this industry. Until it does we can look forward to companies making more investment that flows right on through to earnings.
The only drawback of buying pipeline companies now is price. TransCanada, however, was never really caught up in the buying wave, mainly because of investor trepidation about Keystone. The upshot is it's still a fairly cheap growth stock. Moreover, even if the rest of Keystone never gets built, management has targeted some CAD50 billion in potential energy infrastructure projects, including CAD12 billion in the works for startup by 2015.
That includes a restart of the Bruce Power nuclear plant in Ontario, a project so massive it can potentially generate up to 25 percent of the province's electricity needs. The largest nuclear plant in North America, Bruce is already under long-term contract with the provincial power authority and is on track for startup by the second half of this year.
Once it does, the cash will immediately start flowing to TransCanada's bottom line, providing fodder for more dividend growth as well as further investment in growth. That's the fuel for a superior income investing opportunity in this low-risk company.
Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours.

(Reuters) - A Russian court reduced former oil tycoon Mikhail Khodorkovsky's jail sentence for embezzlement by two years on Thursday, clearing the way for one of President Vladimir Putin's fiercest critics to walk free in October 2014.
Khodorkovsky, once Russia's richest man, is serving a 13-year sentence near the Arctic circle on charges of multi-million dollar tax evasion and money laundering, a punishment seen by Putin's critics as a politically-motivated act of revenge.
One of the young tycoons who built fortunes after the Soviet Union's 1991 collapse, Khodorkovsky, now 49, had appeared to defy calls by the president for rich businessmen, or oligarchs, to stay out of politics.
After his arrest, in 2003, his Yukos oil company was broken up and sold off, mainly into state hands.
Once freed, some believe he could unite Russia's fragmented opposition to pose a serious challenge to Putin, though he has played down such speculation.
Putin once dismissed Khodorkovsky's case by saying thieves must sit in jail. But asked about the ruling on Thursday, he said he bore no grudge against him, saying he had not played any role in the court's decision.
"As for Mikhail Borisovich (Khodorkovsky), there was no personal persecution ... This is a purely an economic crime. The court took its decision," Putin told his annual news conference.
"As regards my opinion that a thief must sit in jail, who is against that? Should he walk the streets?," he said.
Putin said Khodorkovsky's sentence was reduced as a result of a liberalization of Russia's criminal laws.
Under the ruling, his business partner Platon Lebedev would also be released early, in July 2014.
The two men's jailing during Putin's first spell as president from 2000 until 2008 was widely criticized abroad.
Kremlin critics regard the two men as political prisoners - a charge the Russian government denies.
Some Putin critics have drawn comparisons between Khodorkovsky's case and criminal charges filed against Alexei Navalny, the most prominent leader of large street protests against Putin's nearly 13-year rule.
Investigators charged the anti-corruption blogger and his younger brother Oleg on Thursday with being involved in a scheme to cheat a mail transport company out of 55 million roubles ($1.79 million).
Navalny, 36, already faces up to 10 years in jail if found guilty of separate earlier charges of theft from a state timber company.
He denies any wrongdoing and says the accusations are intended to persuade him to stop his opposition activities.
Civil rights activists said the new charges against Navalny outweighed the news about Khodorkovsky and were a reminder of how far Putin has been ready to go to crack down on dissent since he began a third Kremlin term in May.
"This is typical Kremlin good-cop, bad-cop tactics that fully reflects Vladimir Putin's ways," human rights activist Lev Ponomaryov told Reuters.
Opposition leaders have said in the past that the Kremlin would allow Khodorkovsky's release only when it was certain he was no longer a political threat to Putin.
Putin says the judiciary is independent, but Khodorkovsky's imprisonment was interpreted by the former KGB spy's opponents as a warning to wealthy tycoons to stay out of politics. It was also seen as the beginning of a Kremlin drive to increase state control over lucrative oil investments.
Defence lawyers for Khodorkovsky and Lebedev had argued for their sentences to be cut, saying the two men were charged twice with the same crime when they were convicted in a second trial in December 2010.
But defense lawyer Yuri Shmidt said the court had based its decision solely on the retroactive entry into force of changes in Russia's criminal law.
Pouring cold water on the ruling, Shmidt said he would not believe it until Khodorkovsky was released.
"Maybe yet another case against him will appear or something else will happen - until the day he leaves the penal colony it's too early to say," Shmidt said.
Lebedev and Khodorkovsky have waged court battles for years against their sentences, in Russia and at the European Court of Human Rights. They have repeatedly hoped to secure early release but their hopes have been dashed on previous occasions.
"This should not be seen as an act of humanitarianism or mercy from the authorities," Pavel Chikov, head of the human rights organization Agora, told Reuters.

A group of 30 leading music executives, talent agents and entertainment lawyers gathered in late April for lunch in the downstairs conference room at the law offices of Ziffren Brittenham in Century City. Together, the group represents the likes of Lady Gaga, Celine Dion, Aerosmith, Jennifer Lopez and Justin Timberlake — to name a few.
Organized by the nascent group Creative Community for Peace (CCFP), a nonprofit seeking to counter artist boycotts of Israel, the meeting would include an educational PowerPoint presentation and an informal discussion with Los Angeles' Consul General of Israel David Siegel.
Cueing up the first slide, adorned with photos of famous musicians — Carlos Santana, Roger Waters, Elvis Costello and the alternative rock band the Pixies — David Renzer, the former chairman and CEO of Universal Music Publishing Group, asked, "What do these artists have in common?"
The room remained quiet. Renzer clicked to the next slide, displaying photos of jazz singer Cassandra Wilson, alt rocker Cat Power and U.K.-based electronic artist Joker.
Then, in his most equanimous voice, Renzer offered the big reveal: "They've all boycotted Israel," he said. "They've all canceled their tours to Israel."
Among the music industry executives, producers, lawyers and agents, few were aware that Israel faced an international campaign to create a cultural boycott of the country.
Renzer described the boycott, divestment and sanctions movement (BDS) as a loose collection of self-described "pro-Palestinian" activists who use every means — from sophisticated websites to tables on college quads — to spread a pro-boycott message.
He showed videos of BDS in action, including one of the BBC cutting off its live broadcast of the Israel Philharmonic's performance at Royal Albert Hall last fall, after pro-boycott demonstrators disrupted the concert.
"This is an example of the stuff that gets put in front of artists," Renzer said, adding that in April, Oscar-winner Emma Thompson joined three dozen other actors, directors and writers in protesting the inclusion of Tel Aviv theater troupe Habima in a Shakespeare festival at London's Globe Theatre. Not only musicians are targeted, Renzer said. "This is about culture."
"Well, where's our music video? Where's the counter-publicity?" griped an angry Gary Stiffelman, a partner at Ziffren Brittenham, who has represented Eminem, Britney Spears and Michael Jackson. "Don't the Jews still control the media?"
Everybody chuckled.
"It just shocks me that this ragtag group is doing a better job at the PR battle than Israel," Stiffelman said. "There should be a global campaign! I don't see it. I don't see counter-PR happening on YouTube."
Talk turned to producing a pro-Israel promotional video; then, inevitably, questions followed about who might pay for it.
"We need to make Israel cool," Atar Dekel, cultural attache for the Israeli Consulate, concluded.
CCFP is the first group led by industry insiders to try to counter negative messaging about Israel targeted toward the artistic community.
At a time when Israel's image as a vibrant, democratic society is constantly threatened, the presence of world-class entertainers, many of whom have large, impressionable audiences, can help make life there seem, and feel, more normal. These days, however, luring mostly liberal-minded artists to a country whose reputation is often defined by its detractors can be a challenge.
CCFP was created to demonstrate to artists that Israel is a decent place, and that whatever their opinion of Israeli national policy, the boycott and divestment efforts unfairly punish the Israeli public.
But while some high-profile musicians have succumbed to pressure to cancel their Israel tours, many prominent artists are still performing there, including Lady Gaga, Elton John, Rihanna, Paul McCartney and Leonard Cohen. This summer, 46 musical acts are scheduled, including Madonna, who will debut her world tour in Tel Aviv, as well as Rufus Wainwright, Herbie Hancock and Lenny Kravitz. For the classical palate, the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra will perform; for spectacle, Cirque du Soleil.
But elsewhere, there may be trouble ahead. CCFP is already monitoring a situation arising with the Red Hot Chili Peppers, scheduled to perform in Israel in September, who have become the subject of an intense Internet campaign to cancel.
CCFP germinated in the summer of 2010 on a master class trip to Israel organized by the Jewish Federation of Greater Los Angeles. It was just weeks after the Gaza flotilla raid prompted an international uproar, and soon musicians such as Elvis Costello and the Pixies began to cancel. Renzer and his friend Steve Schnur, worldwide head of music for Electronic Arts video games, got to talking about what they could do.
Schnur had just come from an Elton John concert at Tel Aviv's Ramat Gan stadium.
"Elton walked on stage and said, 'They're not gonna stop me from coming here, baby,' " Schnur recalled. "I was on the verge of tears, because someone was speaking up when all others were protesting. And the press was turning [the flotilla incident] into a forum for significant misinformation, and people have a tendency to believe what they read."
Renzer and Schnur held an informal meeting, which also included Ran Geffen-Lifshitz, CEO of Media Men Group, a music publishing company based in Tel Aviv, and Doug Frank, former president of music operations for Warner Bros. Pictures. They decided they could use their connections to reach out to artists who were planning to perform in Israel.
"The initial mission was: Make sure no one else cancels," Renzer said during an interview with CCFP co-founder Schnur last fall. "We saw the boycott movement was getting some wins," he continued, referring to the initial spate of cancellations, which also included spoken word artist and poet Gil Scott-Heron.
Costello, the most prominent artist to cancel, publicly vacillated at first, but ultimately did not want to get caught in a political tug-of-war, according to a post on his blog.
While some might see CCFP's raison d'etre as fear-mongering, Geffen-Lifshitz sees it as prudent. "If you boycott Israel in art, the next thing is boycotting Israeli manufactured goods, then a boycott of Israel as a tourist destination. Then a boycott of anything that has anything to do with Israel. We have to nip this in the bud."
But the point, really, is that music goes beyond politics. It is personal, emotional and can cut across language barriers, boundaries and borders, and spread messages of openness and peace.
"People who live in Israel are music fans and have a right to hear the music they love," Schnur said.
"Musicians that play there don't have to agree with the current or previous policies of the Israeli government — but they can go there and speak toward it or against it. Where else in the Middle East can an artist do that?"

AUSTRALIA and Guns N' Roses have always had ears for each other. The original band dipped its lid to the Angels and Rose Tattoo. For hard-rock fans here, Appetite For Destruction retains more than a touch of touchstone prestige.
In Melbourne, the band has an interesting track record. Plenty of people remember the infamous 1993 Calder Park Raceway show, a rock'n'roll swindle that left scores dangerously dehydrated and just as many marooned. The less said about a 2007 junket the better.
In 1988, they came with a first album spreading like wildfire. I was a green 16. School had broken up. On a balmy Friday, I left Mornington to find the Melbourne Entertainment Centre. I sported yellow Billabong shorts, a white, floppy T-shirt and my good cricket runners.
Everybody else had armed in black.
The glass panels at the entertainment centre trapped the daylight-saving sun. Keyed-up faces multiplied and milled; kissing tickets, slapping high-fives. A Def Leppard T-shirt was flung into a tree, where it hung like a sleeping bat. All at once, we were coursing in. The frisking gave me a buzz - I was dangerous.
In the lair, currents of energy circulated. The stage was a dark altar. My side-on perch was so close it felt voyeuristic.
Down on the floor, a lanky kid in a top hat and shades was perched on the back of his seat, surveying his domain, beaming at his brethren, nodding slowly and continuously; a clown-prince sage. When he raised his arms in a V and all of us to a body began cheering him, he did not exactly shun the attention.
The lights went down. AC/DC's Back in Black burst from the PA and the floor went berserk. The lights came up. Up went a rolling wounded howl heard from the moon.
Each time the lights went down we roared. Each time they came up we bayed.
In swinging searchlights the group hustled and menaced onto the stage. From the floor came a noise so animal raw and ardent, I gaped there, instead.
The first song disoriented everybody. On the LP, You're Crazy was a banshee riding a tempest. Now we were getting it strummed, on lazy-looking acoustics. I tried singing along but the singer, the guy who called himself W. Axl Rose, would only elongate and desecrate each line. Others around me had the same lack of rhythm, the same disoriented body-language.
At song's end, he surveyed an uninspired crowd and said, in jarring, oaken timbre, ''I cannot hear shit up here''.
It was the coldest thing I had heard anybody say to an assemblage. We waited for him to say something conciliatory. His guitarists avoided looking at him, as if they didn't wish to further upset him, or show any glimpse of dissent.
The next 40 minutes were a blur: kick drum pulsing ahead of time; singer disappearing off-stage for oxygen: primordial-looking guitarist Slash in torn skin-tight black Levis and nothing more, throwing back his mass of black spirals, spitting into the airflow of the biggest fan I had ever seen.
They were like a pirate ship in a savage storm, fighting to maintain course, utterly without course, led by a seething, sinewy captain in a tangle of emotional threads. One minute they fell apart. The next they'd give you gooseflesh. Guitars snarled in sync one verse, and the next they were on separate stages. Slash soared like a Pegasus, and then bombed like a lead balloon.
At the heavy heart of an old Bob Dylan song called Knocking on Heaven's Door, every light in the house came up and 7000 faces lit up. Bass and drums settled into gentle, improvised interlude, as the house lights caressed off and on. The singer looked, in those minutes, humbled by his station. ''F--k off … will you look at that?'' - one foot on the monitor, as if we were all sailing into a sunset.
The rest of the time he gave the impression he'd been done an injustice; storming around in his horse-riding pants. He wasn't happy with the local opening act, either - Kings of the Sun singer Jeffrey Hoad, a towering Queenslander, had mooned the crowd for fun. Rose, incensed that a piece of his publicity might be purloined, barked about ''asshole wannabes takin' off their panties''. Minutes later, leaving to thunderous ovation, his face whipped around in acerbic mock-shock as he bent and flashed his stark shiny-with-sweat arse.
In the open air we milled and flowed. Boisterous packs devised plans. Two kids going their separate ways gripped thumbs, American style. ''Later.'' I made a mental note to start saying it to my friends.
That night feels like a turbo-boost in our appetite for American mannerisms and markings - for its sounds and ways.
Not that the town had no homespun heroes. Johnny Farnham's fans had left The National Tennis Centre like innumerable teddy bears leaving a picnic. Alan Border's men had won at the MCG and satiated fans made perfunctory noises with green and yellow plastic trumpets. I fell in and out with all three camps on my way to Flinders Street.
■ Guns N' Roses play Sidney Myer Music Bowl, March 16-17.

Obama Says He Prays for Humility in Washington
The annual National Prayer Breakfast bills itself as a celebration of faith and togetherness. Unfortunately, President Barack Obama noted, that spirit doesn't last much past the coffee.
During his speech at the breakfast Thursday morning at the Washington Hilton, where he spoke before community and religious leaders as well as some lawmakers, the president lamented the current tone in Washington.
"I do worry sometimes that as soon as we leave the prayer breakfast, everything we've been talking about the whole time at the prayer breakfast seems to be forgotten. On the same dayof the prayer breakfast," Obama said, and paused as the attendees laughed. "I mean, you'd like to think the shelf life wasn't so short. I go back to the Oval Office and I start watching the cable news networks, and it's like we didn't pray."
Obama used his speech to call for the country's most powerful lawmakers, including himself, to conduct themselves with humility to God, and for all citizens and lawmakers to strive to find common ground. Obama noted fights over the deficit, taxes and education.
"This morning I want to summon the resolve that comes from our common faith," Obama said, speaking of the country at large.

Muted - Poem by RazonAnny Justin
I won't cry
Lest tears erode the glaze off my gleaming Face
How could I betray my pain
Let them see the Mammoth of my losses
I dare not tell them
Of my Big Chicken-hearted Brothers
Who could broker War on the Tables of Power
But they say nothing
So I ask, 'Who am I to say anything'?
Muted, will I always be.
If I am frequently stirred
Not by lulling melodies of the Avian
But claps of Hammer, clatter of Scissors
The intrusions of Nomad Cobblers and Tailors
Perusing deep into my Ancestral Reserves
Undisturbed, Unafraid, Untouchables
Unaware of the Abattiors of Jos
Or the Minefields of Madalla
Where Doras' dismembered Cadaver lay Unmourned
Forever Muted, though she had tons to say.
Even when u burn my Cross; call me Infidel
I won't dare stutter
Am not even Christ-like
Least, not by your Immaculate standards
I was only born in the same NIGER- AREA
Not Niger- Delta; a strong believe in equity
Yet, if my Wails are inconsequential
And a Compromise with me, denied
Then I shall be almost content
And very Muted will I always be.
Or what would you have me say?
When you have fattened from my Oily Teats
Like a chubby-kid, on my Bossom you now shit
Every debt of favour need repay
Maybe these are your Amortizations
So I'll forget the Proverbialization
Placing my bets on our Diverse Cultures
If being different makes me Inferior
You desrve preference for being Superior
So Muted, will I always be.
I will not growl
And let them Know my Blood is a Gorrilas'
Boiling in the Bellows of Retribution
Or let them see my Hackles
Lest they misplace my subdued Anger for Fear
I will overcome these
Shattering Explosions just like before
Recall; the travails of my Limb-less Uncle
Stumps- product of crude amputations
Seared by heat from merciless Sharia- Blades.
I will Endure through
I will Drum harder
Haggling on the price of Reason
Struggling to keep our Intellect non- Auction
Inspired; the Blood of Martyrs
Puzzled; your Petulance and lack of Compunction
Yet if asked, Why?
The Smiles in the Face of Adversity
I will mumble dope-ishly
That I am a Nigerian who has Nothing to Say.

Great ship with excellent staff: Carnival Splendor Cruise Review by Christopher Giles
Overall Member Rating
Great ship with excellent staff
Destination: Mexican Riviera
Embarkation: Los Angeles
Our room itself was well appointed and very clean with a balcony to use. The entertainment staff were very good and the shows in the evening were excellent and very professional. You need to be fond of food on a cruise we found out as there can be food found some where on board 24hrs a day!. The main food area were the buffets during the day and two main restaurants in the evening. My most criticism was that the food was never hot!! although very well cooked. The weather going was good and also very good in the resorts but on the way back it was cold and a little rough so they had to put the cover over the main deck area. This did spoil the trip a little as we could not get out on deck to sunbathe but that is out of their hands.
Drink prices were not cheap More and most of the treatments in the spa were quite expensive. If you want a treatment wait until the day you want it as they do have specials at a discounted rate!!
Our maid was fantastic and even after only 1 day she was calling us by our first names.
Overall a great experience but cruising is not for us as we found it a little restricted esspecially if you have no sun. Less

Cabin review: SS1112 Cloud 9 Spa Suite
Great room on deck 11 Spa use free if you have a room on this deck. The maid was excellent and very friendly and even after only 1 day she was using our first names. Balcony was small and really only was used coming into ports. Good TV service on board and you can make telephone calls home from your room at a reasonable rate. Very comfortable beds and we had a large double which we also had a turn-down service every night coupled with a different towel animal to admire!. The room also had a safe but at no time did we feel that their would be anything to worry about.Read All Cloud 9 Spa Suite (SS) Reviews >>

Over the last semester, the focus of my Capstone Project in Innovation in Engineering Design, was the creation of a new body armor system focusing on weight reduction and flexibility. Compared to body armor systems currently available, my body armor system allows a greater level of maneuverability while increasing the level of effectiveness at protecting the user of the system. Although testing has not yet begun, it is a design that is very promising, as it will not only be a more flexible system but it will be lighter, as well.
