Chapter 9 – The Vatican Rules the World | Michael Toups The Vatican Rules the World: The Rothschild Connection For anyone not to believe that this 2,000 year old body with vast holdings in gold, art, real estate, multinational corporations and most importantly, knowledge, is not the most powerful institution in the world, cannot be thinking straight. The following article sheds light on the power of the Vatican, and the influential rankings of the Rothschild family and the Windsor queen. You should be aware that the current head of the Rothschild dynasty is Baron David Rene James de Rothschild. Ironically coined by the Romans, the phrase “All roads lead to Rome”. They are and were all funded, controlled and implemented by the ruling Rothschild elite via the Vatican. The Pope and the Vatican, not wanting to appear to get there hands dirty with money, they hired the House of Rothschild, to handle their finances, who in turn hired the Rockerfellers to take over the Americas, and so it goes on and on. All Roads Lead to Rothschild Knights of Malta
40 maps that explain outer space by Joseph Stromberg on March 9, 2015 Space is uniquely difficult for us to wrap our heads around. It's bigger, by many orders of magnitude, than anything we ever experience firsthand, and involves processes that unfold over the course of billions of years. One thing that can help you visualize space is maps and graphics like these — images that capture the diversity, the strangeness, and, above all, the vastness of the universe around us. Our home: the solar systemThis is the solar system, our familiar cluster of one star, eight planets, an asteroid belt, and a whole lot of moons, comets, and tiny bits of debris. Earth The United States, at nightWe've launched thousands of satellites to learn about a place most people don’t consider "space": Earth. Space history The moon The moon is smaller than you realizePerhaps because it's so close to us — and consequently so large in the night sky — our moon is perhaps the main exception to the rule that everything in space is bigger than you think.
How to write a beautiful condolence card to someone who has lost a child How to write a beautiful condolence card to someone who has lost a child or young adult. I wish I didn’t have so much experience on this subject. As I wrote in the Condolences story posted on the site in November 2012, our family received hundreds—maybe a thousand—cards and letters after our 24 year old son, Jimmy, was struck and killed by an automobile walking home in the early morning after a party in the summer of 2008. Why is this so hard? What can you possibly say or write to someone who has lost a child when you are dragged into your own nightmare just by thinking about it? I completely get how hard it is to write something. Some Don’ts Don’t send an email or post on a Facebook wall. “What can I write in a condolence card or letter?” You are now probably saying “With all these don’ts, it’s safer to just get one of those Hallmark cards with the pre-printed message and sign it” OK, one more —don’t do that. Examples of some effective and powerful condolence cards and letters P.S.
Where the Five-Day Workweek Came From “Seven days,” wrote Witold Rybczynski in the August 1991 issue of The Atlantic, “is not natural because no natural phenomenon occurs every seven days.” The year marks one revolution of the Earth around the sun. Months, supposedly, mark the time between full moons. The seven-day week, however, is completely man-made. If it’s man-made, can’t man unmake it? For all the talk of how freeing it’d be to shave a day or two off the five-day workweek, little attention has been paid to where the weekly calendar came from. The roots of the seven-day week can be traced back about 4,000 years, to Babylon. The earliest recorded use of the word “weekend,” Rybczynski notes, occurred in 1879 in an English magazine called Notes and Queries: In Staffordshire, if a person leaves home at the end of his week’s work on the Saturday afternoon to spend the evening of Saturday and the following Sunday with friends at a distance, he is said to be spending his week-end at So-and-so.

To illustrate this, consider that patent applications in the U.S. have increased by 6x (from 100k to 600k annually) and, worldwide, start-ups have increased from 10 million to almost 100 million per year. That means new technologies and new competitors are hitting the market at an unprecedented rate. Although uncertainty is accelerating, it isn’t affecting all industries the same way. That’s because there are two primary types of uncertainty — demand uncertainty (will customers buy your product?) Demand uncertainty arises from the unknowns associated with solving any problem, such as hidden customer preferences. Technological uncertainty results from unknowns regarding the technologies that might emerge or be combined to create a new solution. Consider the 2×2 matrix below. The table below ranks industries into the top 10 and bottom 10.
Test Your Sense of Pitch | NIDCD Have you ever wondered how a musician can pick out a single wrong note in a complex piece of music? Has anyone told you that you are tone-deaf or have a tin ear? These all relate to a sense of pitch—roughly speaking, the highness or lowness of a sound. It's what distinguishes a soprano from a bass singer and gives each piano key a distinct identity. Our ability to distinguish pitch is not fully understood, but we do know that it involves some processing by the brain after a sound is perceived. Research shows that 2 to 5 percent of the U.S. population has problems with pitch perception. Want to test your own sense of pitch? No personal information about you will be collected while you take the test; scoring will be handled by your browser via JavaScript. You must be 16 or older to take this test.

Hundreds of mental health experts issue rallying call against austerity | Society Austerity cuts are having a “profoundly disturbing” impact on people’s psychological wellbeing and the emotional state of the nation, hundreds of counsellors, psychotherapists and mental health experts have said in a letter to the Guardian. They said an “intimidatory disciplinary regime” facing benefits claimants would be made worse by further “unacceptable” proposals outlined in the budget. These amounted to state “get to work” therapy and were both damaging and professionally unethical, they said. Increasing inequality and poverty, families being moved out of their homes and new systems determining benefit levels were part of “a wider reality of a society thrown completely off balance by the emotional toxicity of neoliberal thinking”, according to more than 400 signatories to the letter. The consequences were “most visible in the therapist’s consulting room”. Labour first introduced work capability assessments but the coalition introduced a much more stringent regime.
