Gia's Gift - By Jackinthegreen23



How can something so beneficial be illegal. More to the point as Bill Hicks said 'how can you make a plant against the law that's like saying God made a mistake'. I've seen, heard and read so much that it is impossible to think the people that make this crazy legislation do not know that this plant is a potential answer to many of the Earth's problems and many health problems.
Five fantastic Facts about Cannabis:
  1. Nobody has ever overdosed, period, ever not one never, do you get the picture.
  2. As a medicine Cannabis can ease many illnesses and disorders for arthritis to Multiple Sclerosis to migraines and period pains(Queen Victoria took a medicine containing Cannabis for exactly that, she reportedly had a bit of a coke habit but i cant confirm that)
  3. Hemp can displace cotton which is usually grown with massive amounts of chemicals harmful to people and the environment. 50% of all the world's pesticides are sprayed on cotton.
  4. Hemp can displace wood fibre and save forests for watershed, wildlife habitat, recreation and oxygen
  5. At a volume level of 81%, hemp oil is the richest known source of polyunsaturated essential fatty acids (the "good" fats). It's quite high in some essential amino acids, including gamma linoleic acid (GLA), a very rare nutrient also found in mother's milk
I could fill out an entire blog with facts like that but what I'll do is when I come across more 'outlandish or zany' facts I'll post them here.

Disinfo's 2012-Sceince or Supperstition Review(yes its a bit late)

Well, This is a late one in and thank god I'm my only editor. If i had been under anytime constraints or even if I had to stay abreast of things as they came out on release or went to press I would be doomed. I am pathologically lazy. I know this is not a character affirming trait and I know how annoying it is to people around me especially the ones like my GF who incessantly tell me such.
Anyway back to film and its contents. Its really one of those pieces of film not intended to make you any the wiser. Just to give you as many conflicting interpretations of what could would and should be happening depending on your reality tunnel.

To me it would be easy to dismiss the whole 2012 thing as lunacy if it where not for three things converging on that date. The solar maximum is predicted for 2012 by science that new body of magick that's all respectable now its grown up from alchemy. That really is something portentous in its own right. As we live in a world warming as i type this due to mankind's effects on the planet(or so we are told, i really dunno who to believe on that one) this will make weather intense as more energy as thrown into our biosphere and there is the possibility of rolling blackouts due to Electromagnetic Pulses. If the flares aren't powerful enough for blackouts they'll easily wipe out un-hardened satellites. This according to the afore mentioned documentary film.
The second is the convergence of the new technology. I have heard many scholars say that information will start doubling around the year 2012, with possibly even the fabled singularity where AI takes of exponentially increasing its intelligence. Alan Moore has said "around the year 2015 information will be doubling every couple of minutes I can't imagine the culture that would exist after an explosion of information like that. Culture may move from its liquid state to boiling point and turn straight to steam" in the Mind scape of Alan Moore. Hes got a lot of things right in his predictive fiction most notably surveillance UK in the V for Vendetta strip.
Last but not least and most of the documentary film hinges on this. The Mayan Calender finishing its long count with a presumed deluge. Many great floods. There numerous indigenous American predictions that the 2012 date will be a time of tribulation, i hesitate to us that word but with the flash fire brush wars and the toxic shock that seems to be hitting mankind right now. I hope ol' Saint McKenna was right and we are producing antibody's like the Hippies and Ravers. 'Right now we are six billion people standing on each others shoulders trying to make our selfs happy by kicking each others teeth in, where's that at?'He was right. Lets hope if anything 2012 is a chance to change that.
I must say its a good watch.

The Problem and the Owl

The great creator god had a problem. He took it to the Animals to see if they had a solution. 'I have a problem' the Creator said 'I have a secret to keep from mankind until they are ready for it. I don't know where to hide it'. The secret is they do not know how powerful they are, they do not know that they create they're own reality. The power of this secret is too much for them just now.' The creator sat down glumly.
The buffalo came up and said 'Give me the secret and I will trample it into the plains where it will take them many years to find'
'No' Creator said 'They'll look for it in the plains soon enough'
'The Salmon said 'I'll take it to the bottom of the Great Lakes'
The Creator was unmoved from his Glumness 'They'll look for it at the bottom of lakes soon enough'
The Mole came and said he would take it to the centre of the earth.
'They'll look there too' The glumness now seemed to envelope the creator like a garment.
The Eagle squawked 'This is no good. I shall fly it to them moon, they'll never get there'
The creator smiled at the Eagle but said no, they'll look theyre too'
Silence reigned for a moment till the Owl spoke. The Owl held the creator in its gaze and said 'Put it inside them, they'll never look there'
The creator said 'Done!!' and smiled intently
