Star Trek prophecy fulfilled, centuries early

Thanks to the Secret Sun for alerting us to the news that — as anticipated by the interesting, if boring, Star Trek: The Motion Picture — Voyager 2 is still speaking.

Only this time, the craft is speaking to us Terrans, and in a strange language, which the craft acquired “out there.”

“Alien expert Hartwig Hausdorf said:’It seems almost as if someone had reprogrammed or hijacked the probe – thus perhaps we do not yet know the whole truth.’”

Gulf oil spill a sucker punch to lazy science reporters

The takeaway: Too many science journalists lack skepticism, and balls. — MB

Science reporters and bloggers are guilty of overstating the ability of microbes, nanobots and other technologies to prevent and to lap-up oil spills.

As a result, TV and Web viewers are being lulled into thinking there’s a fix for everything, including BP’s latest pooch-screw.

Here is the underlying problem: Rather than treating scientists and technologists as potential liars — as we are trained to do with pols, for example — we science journos typically treat our subjects with reverence.

To the science writer, I say, the next time any company puts a hard hat on you, and gives you the nickel tour of its facilities, wipe that look of astonishment off your face, and remember to ask, “Will this work?” “Is it safe?” “Where’s the documentation?” and “What if…?”

There’s a stunning slide show, meanwhile, over at Boston.com. Here’s a snip from the text accompanying the images, via PuppetGov:

“While tracking the volume of the continued flow of oil is difficult, an estimated 5,000 barrels of oil possibly much more continues to pour into the gulf every day. While visible damage to shorelines has been minimal to date as the oil has spread slowly, the scene remains, in the words of President Obama, a ‘potentially unprecedented environmental disaster.’”

Rodriguez making Latino "Birth of a Nation," Alex Jones says

A typically hoarse, but not-too-hotheaded Alex Jones is waving the script to Roberto Rodriguez’s upcoming Mexican vs. white American violent thriller, “Machete,” saying it might spark racial warfare throughout the country this fall.

The trailer for “Machete” suggests the film is a vengeance story, in which whites are portrayed as the bad guys, and a parody of the blaxploitation films of the 1970s.

Jones calls the film “a psyop, straight out of hell,” crafted to put Whites and Hispanics at each others’ throats.

Ronald Reagan: Occultist

I wonder if it means you’ve drunk the conspiracist’s Kool-Aid when you say to someone, abruptly, and for no apparent reason, “I’m not a Freemason.”

That’s what I said to a colleague at Emmanuel College, Friday, when I was blabbing about how, when working with someone, “I need to know if he’s on the level.”

Perhaps my self-consciousness was provoked by this bit about “the Great Communicator,” excerpted below (via Christopher Knowles). The piece, by occult historian Mitch Horowitz got me thinking about how our use of the language reveals our beliefs, and programming.

“At a 1957 commencement address at his alma mater Eureka College, Reagan, then a corporate spokesman for GE, sought to inspire students with this leaf from occult history. ‘This is a land of destiny,’ Reagan said, ‘and our forefathers found their way here by some Divine system of selective service gathered here to fulfill a mission to advance man a further step in his climb from the swamps.’”

You can listen to a wonderful interview with Horowitz, by Occult of Personality host, Greg Kaminsky, here.

Singularity watch: US Airmen to serve in parallel universe

The US Air Force, which already owns 12 regions in the virtual world, Second Life, now plans to give each new recruit a duplicate copy of himself to manage for the rest of his career.

The Airman in the first run of a proposed, permanent shift by the US military into virtual reality, will be assigned to a base that matches the one he has outside of Linden Lab’s servers, almost exactly.

The Airman’s avatar, meanwhile, will have a face that crinkles with age. His avatar will also rack up kills, and receive medals, in parallel with his real world rewards.

From a story about the proposal:

“This would take place in simulated worlds that mirror the service’s actual facilities. ‘Everyone who comes into the Air Force will be given an avatar, and that avatar travels with them, grows with them, changes appearance with them,’ said Larry Clemons, of the Air Education and Training Command. ‘It will provide them a history of where they’ve been and a notion of where they’re going.’”

The experiment also reiterates the US military’s commitment to mastering virtual reality — after most people are unable to distinguish between their first and second lives.

That’s what will happen in the Singularity, a forthcoming period of advanced technological development, in which genetics, nanotechnology and robotics converge, and humans achieve immortality.

The Singularity has been explored and described by Ray Kurzweil and others in the transhuman movement.

And only two years ago, the US Army attempted to define what it might mean to be a leader in the Singularity.

Seen a djinn? There's a pill for that

Psychiatrists are enlisting holy men to keep the fantastic at bay. — MB

When a 30-year-old Muslim factory worker in Holland complained to his doctors about “a white figure in the basement who asked him ‘What are you doing here?’” a Dutch psychiatrist pinned the visions on obsessive-compulsive disorder, and prescribed cognitive behavioral therapy and an SSRI — the Gold Standard treatment for OCD.

“But because the patient believed he was being taunted by a djinn (loosely speaking, a mischievous spirit), his doctor enlisted the patient’s imam to disabuse him of that notion.”

The patient, as this report (below) shows in 2009, refused to cooperate.

But a door between psychiatry and religion appears to be opening:

We recommend to ask individuals with an Islamic background specifically whether djinns might be involved, especially in cases of mental problems and unexplained symptoms, and to seek the cooperation of a qualified imam or traditional healer for treatment purposes.

I wonder, then, whether science or religion will prevail, when holy men and healers prescribe their own remedies for the demon-haunted.

Is a “false flag” eco-attack somewhere in the offing? — MB

The scientist who popularized the theory that the Earth is a single organism this week told the UK Guardian humans are too stupid to understand the threat of global warming.

He also said that only a very dramatic event — such as catastrophic flooding, which would surely take thousands of lives — may be necessary to get people’s attention:

“He thinks only a catastrophic event would now persuade humanity to take the threat of climate change seriously enough, such as the collapse of a giant glacier in Antarctica, such as the Pine Island glacier, which would immediately push up sea level.

‘That would be the sort of event that would change public opinion,” he said. “Or a return of the dust bowl in the mid-west.’”

Quelle horreur: CIA dosed, terrorized French town with LSD

Imagine what hundreds of Frenchmen went through in 1951, when they were reported to have eaten bread contaminated with ergot.

Several died in the incident, which unfolded over several days.

Now, imagine how their families are feeling today, now that a reporter has reveals that the CIA was behind the whole thing. Rather than being sickened by bread contaminated with the hallucinogenic fungus, it appears the CIA somehow introduced LSD into one town’s food supply:

“H P Albarelli Jr., an investigative journalist, claims the outbreak resulted from a covert experiment directed by the CIA and the US Army’s top-secret Special Operations Division (SOD) at Fort Detrick, Maryland.

The scientists who produced both alternative explanations, he writes, worked for the Swiss-based Sandoz Pharmaceutical Company, which was then secretly supplying both the Army and CIA with LSD.”

Scientists: Vaccines provide "herd immunity"

By using “herd,” the scientific community belies its insensitivity, if not its outright contempt, for the rest of humanity.

Dose the kids, protect the “herd.” That’s the language hardhearted epidemiologists are using to describe how vaccinations work to protect human populations:

“An unusual study done in 49 remote Hutterite farming colonies in western Canada has provided the surest proof yet that giving flu shots to schoolchildren protects a whole community from the disease. Although previous studies have demonstrated what scientists call ‘herd immunity,’ none have been so incontrovertible, because they were done in less isolated places with more sources of flu passing through.

Stanhope to English, Irish, herd: "Go to hell."

Credit Canadian conspiracy historian Alan Watt, for noting how scientists use the word, “herd,” in a way that fails to jibe with any citation in popular dictionaries.

The scientists are, however, using the same, precise language of that obnoxious prig, the 4th Earl of Chesterfield,  Philip Dormer Stanhope (click the excerpt below, for the full text):
