Positive Changes That Are Occurring

[Carlos_Silva]

In a Lisbon neighbourhood 200 people removed 7 recently installed parking meters because “the meters were installed without talking with the residents”. This was done with the support of the “more local” government (in Europe you can have another tier of government which is more local than municipal).

While they are being accused of vandalism, they guarantee they will return the undamaged parking meters to city hall and expect to get a signed receipt for them

[Jeff]

Carlos, thanks for that very clear example of decentralization as key to the downfall of the statistically-insignficant few who for this moment still control the many through subterfuge.

And this is just parking meters .

It appears that we’re going to escape the parasitic rule of these miscreants progressively and organically, vs. in some big event of some kind. They’re just going to slink out of town and disappear, as con artists and grifters do, once they’ve been found out.

It’s April, 2017, and Nature is booming and burgeoning to a level not seen in my lifetime. Since that statement directly refutes our State Religion, which holds that " Poor Mother Gaia is Dying, Crushed by the Virus-Like Burden of Mankind ", I’ve appended multiple recent examples below to support it.

In response to this great resurgence of life, what we euphemistically call " secret agents " are engaged in ongoing animal-killing operations on behalf of the barely-closeted Death worshippers they work for.

The words " mystery ", " baffled " and " puzzled " are memes, used, among numerous similar variants, whenever anyone in the wholly-controlled-and-coopted Political, Academic, Scientific and Media establishments wants to lie about, well, basically anything. One of those variants is " unsure ".

That’s why a story below on a record number of humpback whale deaths in Hawaii this season says " biologists aren’t sure what’s behind the increase in deaths ."

And why the story on the most sea otters ever in history says " No one knows for sure why shark bites have become the chief source of mortality for California sea otters ."

They are, of course, falling all over themselves to avoid saying “there’s a shark population boom, just like there’s an otter population boom, and a sea urchin population boom.”

The story about the most numbers of manatees ever in history plays the " warm " card twice, first by saying " this year’s 15 observers were helped by warm, sunny weather and good visibility ", and “ The relatively high counts we have seen for the past three years underscore the importance of warm water habitat to manatees in Florida ,” said Gil McRae, head of the state’s Fish and Wildlife Research Institute.

In the first case, " warm " is a deliberate addition: what, did cold drive previous manatee counters in Florida off of their search missions? In the second, " the importance of warm water habitat " is technically correct, but a careful ruse. In that there’s no “cold water habitat” for manatees, they’re semi-tropical. “The importance of a healthy habitat” would be the honest sentence. Here, the quoted expert, a picked man from a bloodline Illuminist family, gymnastically inserts the word " warm ", just as in the first example.

As a bonus, that same lying charlatan, whom you are supposed to trust as a Wildlife Expert, hedges by using " relatively high counts of the last three years " to describe the biggest counts in history. I thank him, however, for the “three years” data point, which maps against the three years recorded thus far by this thread.

You’ll notice that they gave you the numbers on the manatees, but carefully avoiding printing year-to-year percentage increases, as doing so would be more impactful, and go seriously off-message re: Poor Mother Gaia dying, and all. So I had to do the math. 2015 to 2016 saw a 3% increase. 2016 to 2017 saw a 6% increase.

Can you see how the positive change is increasing in speed and magnitude?

Can you see how the Media reporting the positive change is wholly-controlled-and-coopted?

The reporter says this year’s record is a " far cry " from the 1,267 seen in 1991. That sounds like queasy, negative spin to me. What’s for certain is that they again carefully avoided saying “numbers have increased 422% from 1991 to 2017.”

To preserve current programming levels, affirm that warmer and warmer water is baking more and more manatees.

I’d also note that the low-point Manatee number occurred at the exact same time as when crime was peaking to its highest level, ever. And right around the same time that storm steering and augmentation technology was reaching its greatest effectiveness. I believe its all connected to the overall level of Death energy in the environment, the level of what Wilhelm Reich called “Dead Orgone Radiation”.

In the article about the most-ever Turkeys in history in New Hampshire, we’re told that " The semi-drought conditions of spring/summer 2016 contributed to an above average hatch ." I’m not a Zoologist, Naturalist or Ornithologist. But drought is not a helpful influence upon any life forms that I know of. It seems to be yet another plausible-deniability excuse put forward to avoid drawing attention to the burgeoning health of the larger environment.

Their tactics are simple, repetitive, and uncreative. What they are fighting against is increasing in speed, power and scope.

What, precisely, do you think is going to happen to these people, and when?

Please consider sending them highest love energy as you read this. And, if you haven’t already done so, also please consider distributing simple, inexpensive Orgonite devices where you live and work today, or sponsoring a gifter, perhaps even through a vehicle such as this forum.

September 19, 2016 - California sea otter population reaches record high number

In a historic rebound, California sea otters, the frolicking ocean ambassadors of Monterey Bay and Big Sur, have reached their highest population level since 1982, when federal and state officials first began keeping track.

A growth in the amount of sea urchins, one of the otters’ favorite foods, seems to be the leading reason why otter numbers along the California coast have grown to 3,272 this year, up 11 percent since 2013, experts said as they released the latest survey Monday.

No one knows for sure why shark bites have become the chief source of mortality for California sea otters. But one theory is that the Marine Mammal Protection Act of 1972 banned the killing of elephant seals and sea lions, both of which are food sources for white sharks. The populations of those animals soared, particularly off Año Nuevo and Piedras Blancas near Hearst Castle. With more food, the sharks may have expanded in number also, or they may have changed their range.

January 18th, 2017 (Mahealani Richardson). HONOLULU – Wildlife officials are investigating a record number of humpback whale deaths in Hawaii this season.

Six humpback whale carcasses have washed up onto Hawaii shores since November. That’s double the number typically found in a season , which runs from November to May. In winter, humpback whales travel from Alaska to breed and give birth in Hawaii waters.

Biologists aren’t sure what’s behind the increase in deaths.

February 17, 2017 - Florida survey spots record number of manatees

There’s some good news out of Florida: For the third straight year, spotters counted more than 6,000 manatees navigating Florida’s waters.

An aerial survey ending earlier this month had a preliminary total of 6,620 creatures, compared to 6,250 in 2016 and 6,063 the year before. That’s a far cry from the estimated 1,267 manatees seen in 1991.

The manatees, of course, have to be seen to be counted and their exact numbers are unknown. But this year’s 15 observers were helped by warm, sunny weather and good visibility, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conversation Commission said Monday.

“ The relatively high counts we have seen for the past three years underscore the importance of warm water habitat to manatees in Florida,” said Gil McRae, head of the state’s Fish and Wildlife Research Institute.

March 15, 2017 - New Hampshire - Turkey Hunt Forecast

The summer 2016 Public Internet Brood Survey yielded a record number of 2,926 turkey brood observations throughout the state. During August statewide, the average was 2.97 poults per hen.

The statewide turkey population for New Hampshire is estimated to be approximately 40,000 turkeys. The carrying capacity has probably been reached.

There could be a record harvest for the upcoming May 2017 Spring Gobbler Season of May 3 (Wednesday) through May 31 (Wednesday). The semi-drought conditions of spring/summer 2016 contributed to an above average hatch , and winter 2017 was relatively easy.

The world is transforming rapidly to the better, right before our eyes. Since that statement is diametrically opposed to most of what we hear and read, I’ve appended a recent example below to support it.

It’s from Connecticut, from two days ago, and it’s headlined “State to close section of Montville prison due to declining number of inmates, lower crime rate.”

Prisons closing for lack of prisoners, here, and over in Europe. All over the globe, at the same time.

“According to officials the state’s total inmate population is approximately 14,560, down from an all-time high in 2008 of 19,894 inmates.” You’ll notice that they hedged in that they gave you the numbers, but carefully avoided printing the percentages, as doing so would have been more impactful. So I had to do the math. It’s a 37% drop in nine years.

The fair-seeming, two-faced, nattily-suited folks in charge, who are not your friends, as they profess, are really pissed about it. Which is why the Fight Club talking head quoted in the article says “ The closing of infrastructure is a good indication that fewer people are returning to prison .” A 37% drop in the prison population in under ten years is not an indication - however good - that " fewer people are returning to prison ." It’s not an indication, it’s proof that there’s a huge drop in crime. Can you see how he carefully phrased it to avoid saying what I did, because doing so would create a shock of positive change in the minds of the readers?

Why, please, this emphasis on returning to prison, vs. first-time-offenders? That’s a significant, strange spin, don’t you think? Then he goes on to put forth general, non-specific, broad-brush plausible deniability excuses to explain the drop, and carefully neglects to mention the larger trend of dropping crime across the globe: " The reduction in the offender population not only speaks to successful criminal justice reforms, but also represents the dedicated work of the men and women of the Department of Correction .”

What successful reforms, pray, my lying friend? What specific work by those allowedly fine men and women? Why the broad-brushing?

The crime rate is dropping at a very significant rate in every nation on Earth. And in every nation on Earth, the reportage surrounding the topic follows the same pattern, uses the same tired techniques and methods, as documented in this heavily-repetitive thread for over three years, now.

It’s clear that the lines are diverging, not converging. Humanity’s path is forward, up, and to freedom, and the miscreants who for this moment still rule us by subterfuge are going down, and backward, and away, to their ruin.

You know how people say " I can’t unsee that "? Well, we don’t “unlearn”, either. It’s why you don’t go to a magic show a second time - once you learn the misdirection tricks, it’s no longer entertaining, you are no longer credulous . Which is why I think these guys are at the end of their road.

Like magicians, con artists also use misdirection, in their case to disadvantage other people - after first, crucially, gaining their confidence . They’re so completely amoral and insane that they take pleasure in it, and refer to it as a " game ". A Confidence Game.

But people are getting wise to the game, I think.

April 5, 2017 - Connecticut - State to close section of Montville prison due to declining number of inmates, lower crime rate

HARTFORD – The state announced Wednesday that it will close the Radgowski Annex Building at the Corrigan-Radgowski Correctional Center in Montville.

Gov. Dan Malloy made the announcement at the facility. He said the state will save about $3 million a year with the closing. The annex houses up to 254 inmates. It was opened in 1957, and closed between 1991 and 1997. The facility confined both pretrial and sentenced offenders, and serves Superior Courts in Danielson, New London, Norwich, and Windham.

The closure was made possible by a declining prison population and drop in the crime rate in the state.

“As crime in Connecticut has dropped to its lowest level in two generations and the prison population has subsequently declined to its lowest level in 23 years, we’ve been able to create efficiencies by closing outdated prisons and portions of facilities, and reallocating these resources toward efforts that will further enhance public safety initiatives and keep our neighborhoods even safer,” Governor Malloy said. “Violent, high-risk inmates are serving more of their original sentences than ever before. We are making real progress and in the process, improving lives and bettering our communities.”

“The closing of infrastructure is a good indication that fewer people are returning to prison,” DOC Commissioner Scott Semple said. “The reduction in the offender population not only speaks to successful criminal justice reforms, but also represents the dedicated work of the men and women of the Department of Correction.”

According to the FBI, reported crime in Connecticut is now at its lowest level since 1967. Statewide arrests, jail admissions and recidivism are at historic lows as well. For example, the total number of prisoners returned to prison within one year of release for those released in 2014 was 900 lower than for those released in 2011.

According to officials the state’s total inmate population is approximately 14,560, down from an all-time high in 2008 of 19,894 inmates.

The DOC has closed part or all of six of correctional facilities since 2010.

Thanks Jeff, I agree world-wide decentralization is something that’s happening at a grassroots level and it’s refreshing to accompany this thread and become more aware of it !

Here are some pictures of a greening desert in Arizona which Don asked me to post. The mixture of cactus and juicy green vegetation looks amazing.

Carol and I started reversing the American/Mexican desert in 2001, starting in Death Valley, which was the driest spot on the continent. It turned green before the rest of the lower desert did, though the high desert in Nevada had started to blossom by then.

I know I repeat these things from time to time but when signs of progress, like these photos, show up I think it’s useful to put them into fair context. Nobody else but orgonite flingers are claiming these results and nobody is ridiculing us for it.

The area in the photos is where I spent five successive winters learning to fly two kinds of aircraft and during the first of those winters (2010) when I started training to fly weight shift trikes, the only atypical greening I saw were small succulent (non-desert) plants growing in the shade of large shrubs and small, desert trees. The Happy Valley airfield where I was getting the training was still dry as a bone. Three years later, when I learned paramotoring (the lovely lady in the 4-wheeler is Deanna Lucky, who is the girlfriend of my instructor, world champion Ryan Shaw of paradrenalin.com) enough non-desert plants had begun to grow in the practice area that it had become a challenge to launch the paraglider wings without getting snagged on the plants.

The following winter, when I was getting more advanced paramotor training there, those green plants had become taller and closer together. That’s the winter when Carol and I conceived a successful strategy to do aerial gifting in Southern Arizona and SE California (following up on Dr Reich’s 1954 success, there), which produced record rainfall in the ‘California Sahara’ almost immediately.

I posted photos of that campaign, showing tall green grass growing around saguaro cacti. The Saguaro only grow in the driest, lower desert in Southern Arizona and the adjacent territory in Mexico. Carlos kindly agreed to post these current photos for me and I asked him to put it in Jeff’s exemplary Positive Changes thread. The NSA @$$warts are currently making it impossible for me to post photos, here. Since I’ve always been blocked from freely sharing photos online I’ve had to get better at ‘using my words’ to describe what we’ve done .

~Don

[Jeff]

Carlos, Don, thanks for that jaw-dropping addition. I’m 53 years old, and have never seen the desert look like that in my life.

I’d ask the readership to note that Don’s employing a tactic that I learned from him:

" I know I repeat these things from time to time but when signs of progress, like these photos, show up I think it’s useful to put them into fair context. Nobody else but orgonite flingers are claiming these results and nobody is ridiculing us for it ."

The keys there being “repeat these things”, and “nobody else is claiming it and nobody is ridiculing us for it.”

Re: " nobody else is claiming these results ", I’d have to note that the establishment press has been firm that " increased Carbon Dioxide in the atmosphere " and " global warming " and, more vaguely " climate change " are causing the great increase in rainfall around the globe. Time, increasing discernment and greater scientific inquiry around the subject will prove out, over time, which thesis is correct.

The folks in charge are way, way back on their heels, and have only had the measure of success that they’ve had to date because of lies, misdirection and subterfuge. If you go to any “truthteller” website favored by the search engines, you can find stories on all manner of strange things, but, if you type the word “Orgonite” into their search box, you will get few - or even more tellingly, zero - hits. They’re trying to hold back awareness of the subject by not talking about it at all - not to praise, not to damn.That exposes them terribly, because Don, and I, and others, are " repeating these things ", talking about the subject. Crazy, self-deluded insane people or empowered forward-thinkers, time will tell!

So, thus, when these subjects hit larger awareness, and the “truthtellers” favored by the search engines who have been silent on them were to attempt to spread disinformation in regard to them, we can say in reply “we’ve been rebutting the position you just tabled for about twenty years, now, and you’ve been silent about it for the whole time. Why?”

If someone came to awareness on the subject of Orgonite’s role in desert greening in 2017, and you then showed them a post on the subject mapping to what they’re come to awareness on from, say, 2007, that’s going to have a profound effect upon them, and put anyone who wasn’t speaking up in 2007 at a dreadful, titanic disadvantage.

In cycling, sometimes a single rider or a small group of riders will “break away” from the peloton, the pack. Sometimes, the pack can work together to catch the breakaway. Others, not so! It’s one of the things that makes road cycling so exciting to watch.

Here, the metaphorical pack has waited too long, and the breakaway has succeeded. They’ve made a crucial mistake in their tactics. Actually, to continue the metaphor, they knew they were beat as soon as the breakaway took off - they knew that the riders in the breakaway were too fast, too strong.

And that doesn’t mean we’re smarter than them, it means we’re righter than them.

Think about it - if they say “that’s a bunch of hogwash”, on the front page of the New York Times, suddenly, it’s a dialogue. And it’s over.

If they say “Orgonite has broken the great artificial drought, is greening the deserts!” on the front page of the New York Times, it’s “hey, like we’ve been saying! Where’ve you guys been?” They’re going to look really bad, either way.

And they’re going to lose, either way.

April 7, 2017 - KFC to stop using chickens raised with human antibiotics

NEW YORK (AP) — KFC said Friday that it will stop serving chickens raised with certain antibiotics.

The fried chicken chain said the change will be completed by the end of next year at its more than 4,000 restaurants in the U.S.

KFC said is working with 2,000 farms around the country to stop using antibiotics that are used by humans. Antibiotics specific to animals may still be used to treat diseases in the chickens, KFC said.

Meat producers give animals antibiotics to make them grow faster and prevent illness, a practice that has become a public health issue. Officials have said that it can lead to germs becoming resistant to drugs, making antibiotics no longer effective in treating some illnesses in humans.

KFC’s rivals have already announced plans to curb their use of chickens raised with antibiotics. Chick-fil-A has said that by 2019 it will only serve chicken that has never been given any antibiotics. And McDonald’s Corp. has stopped using chickens raised with antibiotics important to human medicine for its McNuggets and chicken sandwiches.

KFC, owned by Louisville, Kentucky-based Yum Brands Inc., said it is also in the process of removing artificial colors and flavors from certain menu items by the end of 2018.

April 3, 2017 - New York City crime drops to record levels in first quarter of 2017 , despite jump in subway incidents

Despite a jump in subway crime, the city recorded its safest first quarter in at least a generation, with record lows in serious crime including murders and shootings, police said Monday.

Through the first three months of the year, the crime rate is down 5% compared to the same time frame last year.

Murders were down 10% , with 61 slayings this year compared to 68 last year, police said.

And there were 42 fewer shootings this year, a drop of 22%

There was also a sharp drop in homicides at housing projects — five this year compared to 13 last year, a 62% decrease , police said.

But crime in the subways is up 6% , mostly due to a double-digit surge in felony assaults.

Dermot Shea, the chief of Crime Control Strategies, said the mostly good news is no surprise to police brass.

“Last year, we said that we believed crime could go lower,” Shea said at press conference on Randalls Island. “We are now witnessing the effects of our sustained focus on the recividist population within New York City as
our strategies take hold.”

CompStat, introduced in 1994, analyzes and maps crime patterns to hold NYPD commanders responsible for their districts.

Police have been focusing mostly on the repeat offenders who drive a majority of the violent crime in the city.

At the same time, the NYPD remade its approach to New Yorkers, working off a neighborhood policing model designed to improve relationships and lean on residents for the information and cooperation police need to solve crimes.

But Police Commissioner James O’Neill, on the heels of Tuesday’s terror attack in Russia, said the concern remains that proposed budget cuts by President Trump could dramatically cut the federal funds the NYPD relies onto prevent terrorism in the city.

Mayor de Blasio said the city will fight any funding dip that hurts the city.

“Maybe he’s been away from New York a little too long if he thinks we are not going to fight it,” the mayor said of Trump. “We need to protect our city.”

It’s April, 2017, and the Great Artificial Drought has been broken by the slow, steady, widespread and ever-increasing distribution of simple, inexpensive Orgonite devices in the vicinity of the weather warfare infrastructure that many still mistakenly presume only carries cell phone traffic and weather radar data.

I’ve appended a story below from two days ago from Massachusetts to support that assertion. It’s headlined “Record Rainfall for the First Week of April.”

A graphic accompanies the story, showing the last five records:

April 1 to April 7

1957 - 3.21 inches

1987 - 3.29 inches (2.5% larger than the previous record - ed)

2016 - 3.31 inches (.6% above the previous record)

1973 - 3.59 inches (8.4% above the previous record)

2017 - 3.84 inches (6.9% above the previous record)

You can see that last year and this year are number one and number three, all time.

" The average rainfall for the entire month of April is 4.36″. So, we are about a half inch shy of the normal rainfall for the entire month! There have been some benefits to all the rain. The drought is gone in Rhode Island! "

The successful demonization of rain, the great bringer of life, is one of the master-strokes of programming in our culture. " Some benefits." You know, like burgeoning wildlife, record crops…

April 8, 2017 - Massachusetts - Record Rainfall for the First Week of April

It’s no secret that we’ve been a little on the soggy side as of late. We’ve had several big rain storms recently, all with an inch or more of rainfall, and rivers have been running high. In fact, minor flooding occurred on both the Pawcatuck and Pawtuxet Rivers during the past few days. We’ve all heard of April showers, but this has been ridiculous!

Well, we’ve broken a record for rainfall for this first week of April. During the time period of April 1 through April 7, we have gotten 3.84″ of rain, which broke the old record for that time period by a quarter inch. Records have been kept for April in Providence since 1905.

Region-wide, we’ve received 2 to 4.5″ of rain, the most over Southeastern Massachusetts.

Comparing that rainfall to what is ‘normal’ or average for the first week of April, and we find that we are 2 to 3″ above average, and Plymouth County is 3 to 4″ above average.

The average rainfall for the entire month of April is 4.36″. So, we are about a half inch shy of the normal rainfall for the entire month! There have been some benefits to all the rain. The drought is gone in Rhode Island!

Looking ahead, the upcoming week should be fairly dry (and warmer). There could be a few showers in the area on Wednesday and Thursday night, but not the deluges we had during the first 7 days of April!

[Jeff]

It’s April, 2017, and the Great Artificial Drought has been broken by the slow, steady, widespread and ever-increasing distribution of simple, inexpensive Orgonite devices in the vicinity of the weather warfare infrastructure that many still mistakenly presume only carries cell phone traffic and weather radar data.

I’ve appended a story below from two weeks or so ago from South Carolina to support that assertion. It’s headlined " Rain record set at GSP ."

The new record is “3.9” of rain, shattering the old 24-hour rain record of 1.79” set back in 1942.”

I’ll give the author of the story for accurately saying the new record " shattered " the old, but must note that they carefully hedged by withholding the percentage, as printing it would have been much more impactful, as such records are usually broken by tiny margins. So I had to do the math. It’s 118% larger than the previous record.

The folks doing the artificial drought creation are still hedging, still hopeful: " 2016 started off on a similar surplus and drought conditions settled in later in the year, so it’s important to remember that one rain event does not mean a drought is not possible later in the year ."

Thanks for the drought-prayer, guys. But the game’s gotten badly away from them, don’t you think? Actually, I believe the game is over. They just lost California, in spectacular fashion. The Death-energy-based weather warfare system can concentrate and project that energy, which Wilhelm Reich called “Dead Orgone Radiation”, or DOR, but it can’t keep the battle up on so many open fronts, most especially as the general level of what Reich called “Positive Orgone Radiation”, or POR, continues to rise in the wider environment.

The system goes back to ancient times, starting with stone “Ba’al pillars” up in the high places (at key points on the Earth grid), then moving on to capacitor-steepled churches (at key points on the Energy grid), and moving forward to modern times, with infrastructure certainly at key points on the Earth grid, but mostly everywhere they can possibly put them. Big, electrified clusters of them up where the Ba’al pillars were.

The fair-seeming, two-faced, sociopathic, genetically-related folks who are for this moment still in charge of things on this globe have worshipped the Sky god, the “Lord of the Air” all the way back to Babylon, and before. That’s why it says “Air” on your fancy shoes, why there was a Chevy Bel Air, “B’el Air”, “Ba’al” “Air”.

I believe it will become clear over time that “modern technology”, first telegraph, then radio, then television, etc., were and are a careful, calculated arms race, but on the Etheric plane, which establishment science has assured you does not exist, at all.

Fortunately, only a minuscule portion of the Earth’s inhabitants needed to get wise to that Confidence Game, and simple, inexpensive Orgonite devices are transforming the Death energy carried by that aforementioned malefic system into life energy, Chi, prana, Positive Orgone Radiation, call it what you will.

If you haven’t done so already, please consider distributing simple, inexpensive Orgonite devices where you live and work today, or sponsor a gifter near you, perhaps even through a vehicle such as this forum.

March 21, 2017 - Greenville, South Carolina - Rain record set at GSP

March 21st, 2017 brought a variety of weather – a hot afternoon with near record highs, record rainfall, and widespread large hail. Thunderstorms blossomed rapidly by mid-afternoon as the “cap” broke – the “cap” is a layer of warm air off the surface that prevents thunderstorms from developing.

The thunderstorms were very slow-moving once they formed, so heavy rain was clearly an imminent concern. The atmosphere was set up similar to a summer-type day – it was hot in the afternoon and the overall wind profile was weak, suggesting storms would be slow to move overall.

A thunderstorm complex evolved over the GSP Airport and accordingly dropped 3.9” of rain, shattering the old 24-hour rain record of 1.79” set back in 1942. It rained for a total of 6 hours at the airport, but 2.6” of the 3.9” of rain fell in just one hour! In this setup, the ground simply cannot “keep up” in most cases, and flash flooding usually can occur.

The total average precipitation for March at GSP is 4.52”, so approximately 86 to 87 percent of that total fell in just one day. This puts GSP at a 2.81” surplus for the month of March and a 0.74” surplus for the year. Less than 60 miles away, Asheville only registered 0.55” of rain on the same day and is still in a substantial year-to-date (YTD) deficit of -3.93”.

2016 started off on a similar surplus and drought conditions settled in later in the year, so it’s important to remember that one rain event does not mean a drought is not possible later in the year

[Jeff]

It’s April, 2017, and the Great Artificial Drought has been broken by the slow, steady, widespread and ever-increasing distribution of simple, inexpensive Orgonite devices in the vicinity of the weather warfare infrastructure that many still mistakenly presume only carries cell phone traffic and weather radar data.

I’ve appended a story below, from four days ago to support that assertion. In it, you will see all sorts of gymnastics being undertaken to downplay and defray the breaking of the Great Artificial Drought in California.

Here comes the Black magic spell: " The statewide precipitation values given by NCEI “represent area weighted average of values observed at weather stations across the state ,”

That’s like the slicing, dicing and fabricating they do with other climate data. They put that claptrap first. But don’t take my word for it. Fortunately, this follows that immediately:

"But Jan Null, a meteorologist with Golden Gate Weather Services, places little value in the statewide rankings because they take into account “a lot of areas that do not contribute to our water supply.”

Jan Null gets it. I get it. I think you get it. The folks in charge are lying to you about basically everything, including rainfall in Northern California.

But do you think hedging protectively via controlled Scientific, Academic and Media complexes is having any real impact on the great positive transformation that’s under way?

Do you think it helps their cause, from a tactical perspective, in any way?

I don’t. But that’s scientific proof it’s the best they’ve got.

If you are so inclined, and haven’t already done so, please consider distributing simple, inexpensive Orgonite devices where you live and work today, or sponsor a gifter, perhaps even through a vehicle such as this forum.

This is our time.

April 6, 2017 - California storms: This rainy season now ranks 2nd all time in 122 years of records

California’s current rainy season can no longer lay claim to being No. 1.

After relatively modest rainfall in March, this season now ranks as the second wettest in 122 years of record-keeping, according to data released Thursday by federal scientists.

Between October 2016 and March 2017, California averaged 30.75 inches of precipitation, the second-highest average since such records began being kept in 1895, according to the National Centers for Environmental Information, part of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

The new No. 1 is the old No. 1, 1982-83 (34.38 inches average), when a series of powerful and deadly El Nino storms brought high wind, heavy rain and heavy snowfall across all of California. The storms that year resulted in widespread flooding and mudslides to coastal mountain ranges, causing 36 deaths, according to the Western Regional Climate Center.

The statewide precipitation values given by NCEI “represent area weighted average of values observed at weather stations across the state,” according to Nina Oakley, a California Climate Specialist with the Western Regional Climate Center, part of NOAA.

This season was the wettest through the end of February, fueled largely by a conveyor belt of “Pineapple Express” storms that inundated much of the state with rain and snow. The water year (October through September) record for California is 1982-83, which totaled an average of 40.41 inches of rain, according to the NCEI data.

But Jan Null, a meteorologist with Golden Gate Weather Services, places little value in the statewide rankings because they take into account “a lot of areas that do not contribute to our water supply.”

Instead, Null said the most important factors for California rainfall are three watersheds along the Sierra Nevada that account for three-quarters of the state’s water supply. The eight-station Northern Sierra Nevada index, a mix of rain gauges near major Northern California reservoirs, currently stands at 83.48 inches of rain, about 5 inches shy of the all-time record set in 1982-3.

The five-station Central Sierra index and the six-station Southern Sierra index have also received more than 150 percent of their normal averages, and all three could finish this season with record numbers, Null said.

“This is certainly a significantly wet year,” Null said. “In terms of snowpack, it’s only the sixth highest. There are so many different metrics to look at. I think the best ones are the Sierra multi-station indexes. That’s what ends up in the reservoirs.”

The Bay Area and Sierra Nevada were expecting a series of storms beginning Thursday night that should deliver widespread rain, snow and high wind, according to the National Weather Service.

Meteorologist Anna Schneider of the National Weather Service said the upcoming storms forecast to hit through this weekend could be the last big rainmaker events of the season in the Bay Area.

‘It would be unusual to see any more potential rainfall,” Schneider said.

Driving California’s precipitation totals this year was a parade of “Pineapple Express” storms, a type of “atmospheric river” that gets its name from the plume of moisture coming from Hawaii into California. Pineapple Express storms can be 250 miles wide, 1,000 miles long and carry 20 times as much water as the Mississippi River at its terminus with the Gulf of Mexico.

The record precipitation has allowed California to pull out of a five-year drought. In March 2016, just 5 percent of California was classified as free from drought. As of April 4, 2017, 91 percent of the state was no longer in drought condition, according to federal scientists.

For years, the National Weather Service reported data for the rainfall season, which runs from July through September. A few years ago, at the request of the state’s Department of Water Resources, the weather service began reporting data for the water year, which runs from October through September, according to Bob Benjamin, a meteorologist with the weather service.

“In most cases, the difference is three dry months,” Benjamin said. “You won’t see significant differences. A few hundredths of an inch here or there.”

“Orders had been issued for the march toward Blois. It was a clear, sharp, beautiful morning. As our showy great company trotted out in column, riding two and two, Joan and the Duke of Alençon in the lead, D’Aulon and the big standard-bearer next, and so on, we made a handsome spectacle, as you may well imagine; and as we plowed through the cheering crowds, with Joan bowing her plumed head to left and right and the sun glinting from her silver mail, the spectators realized that the curtain was rolling up before their eyes upon the first act of a prodigious drama, and their rising hopes were expressed in an enthusiasm that increased with each moment, until at last one seemed to even physically feel the concussion of the huzzas as well as hear them. Far down the street we heard the softened strains of wind-blown music, and saw a cloud of lancers moving, the sun glowing with a subdued light upon the massed armor, but striking bright upon the soaring lance-heads—a vaguely luminous nebula, so to speak, with a constellation twinkling above it—and that was our guard of honor. It joined us, the procession was complete, the first war-march of Joan of Arc was begun, the curtain was up.”

Mark Twain, from " Personal Recollections of Joan of Arc "

Some compatriots on this forum helped me out in chat this weekend (again), and I’d again like to publicly thank them from the bottom of my heart (also again).

Etheric assaults upon myself are continuous, but working with Dooney quickly got me to a place where I am the master of them. My wife, however, is an easy target, and so the Psy Corps folks, who have names, and addresses, and put their pants on one leg at a time like the rest of us, mess with her head, and heart, to try to get to the Hard Target, me. And so the chat focused on clearing her etheric space, and things have been a lot better between she and I, since.

I’m mentioning it not only to say thanks to my beloved friends, but also because I believe that “as above, so below” is at play, here in this realm. We know that, at the macro level, great, epochal positive changes are underway at every level of our reality, and we know that those changes are increasing in speed and magnitude.

And, at the micro level, I’m making positive progress in my own life - and that despite concerted, furious, malefic opposition. I have a great job interview in a week. I’ve been riding a lot - on the undamaged bike they deployed the wetworker to kill me on - and am fitter than I’ve been in a long time. I’m happy, healthy, and optimistic. I’m enjoying my writing, this creative, well-intentioned effort. The Skylark’s running beautiful .

When I was young, I wasn’t optimistic, because I could clearly see things getting worse in the world around me, every year of my life. Three years ago was big. Boom , Nature changed, all the bad juju kind of got shocked off its critical path. You can read all about it in this thread. My point is I’m really optimistic right now. And you are stoked, if I, Jeff, am optimistic. You see, I’ve always strived to be a positive person, but also always a clear-eyed, rational realist. There were lots of very rational reasons to not be optimistic in 1982, or 1991. But, wow, the last three years! Suddenly it’s raining normally again, since it started getting un-normal, when I was in High School, oh, 30 years ago? Boom .

The Bad Guys have literally everything they’ve got focused on destroying this movement, and yet the players within it are stepping forward, moving forward. Christine’s out of jail. Is she cowed, broken, quitting the effort? No! She’s right back at it. I wept with joy when I read her post this morning.

Going back through Don’s writings and listing out the failed murder attempts on Carol and himself would be a valuable exercise and a compelling read. I think there might be a post somewhere…point is, I don’t recall Don or Carol having slowed their forward progress, either.

Isn’t this all proof the folks who are still for this moment in charge of things on this globe just a Paper Tiger? A stupid con artist behind a curtain, showing a scary movie and yelling to try to frighten and control the naive?

In the chat, we laughed about how the Bad Guys are so scared of just one gifter, heading off with just one van and a bunch of simple, inexpensive Orgonite devices. My rejoinder was “and there’s a bunch of guys, and a bunch of vans.”

If you made it all the way to this Obscure Internet Forum, and are reading this, and yet are still on the fence, I’d ask you to consider the mighty impact just one person can make, here in this situation. If you haven’t already done so, I would urge you to consider distributing simple, inexpensive Orgonite devices where you live and work today, or sponsoring a gifter, perhaps even through a vehicle such as this forum.

April 10, 2017 - Consumer interest in the organic label continues to grow.

The organic industry says U.S. sales of its products jumped 11 percent last year alone , to more than $39 billion, despite tight domestic supplies of organic ingredients. And the number of U.S. organic operations has grown by 250 percent since the government started certifying organic products in 2002, according to new Agriculture Department data released Wednesday.

The industry estimates that organics now make up almost 5 percent of total food sales in the United States. But much of the growth is also in nonfood items like textiles and personal care items. The Organic Trade Association says those nonfood sales jumped almost 14 percent last year and totaled more than $3 billion.

The industry has been rapidly growing since the United States put strict rules in place for organic labeling 13 years ago — some critics say growing too much , as food giants like General Mills and Kellogg have entered the organic game and many small organic food companies have grown into large businesses.

Laura Batcha, head of the trade association, says that growth has helped the industry move beyond a niche market.

“The only way to create change is for there to be widespread adoption,” Batcha said.

Organic foods generally are grown with fewer chemicals and artificial ingredients and are produced according to a strict set of government standards. Foods cannot be labeled organic unless their production adheres to those rules, and those extra steps mean prices for organic products are generally higher.

USDA said the number of organic operations grew 5 percent last year and Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack announced it will create a new database so consumers can track companies’ organic certifications.

“The more diverse type of operations and the more growing market sectors we have in American agriculture, the better off our country’s rural economy will be,” Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack said in a statement.

Despite its success, the industry is facing some major challenges, including struggles to source enough organic ingredients. Much of the shortage is in organic milk and eggs, due to low inventories of organic corn and soybeans that feed cattle and poultry. The industry says there have also been some shortages of fruits and vegetables, which make up the largest sector of the organic market, due to difficulties finding land suitable for organic farming.

Some of the supply issues trace back to cultural issues in highly agricultural areas, where farmers see organic as an enemy that is disparaging the quality of their conventional product. Growing organics also means you can’t use as many chemicals like herbicides, which many farmers have grown used to.

The industry is also fighting confusion in the marketplace, with many food packages touting “natural” ingredients — a term the industry believes consumers confuse with organic. To combat that, organic producers are pursuing an industry-funded Agriculture Department “checkoff” campaign — think the milk industry’s “Got Milk?” ads — to promote itself and make those distinctions.

The Organic Trade Association data released Wednesday show sales growth in all areas of the country. But the strongest sales remain in the Northeast and on the West Coast, and 73 percent of organic buyers are white. Just 16 percent of those who buy organic are Hispanic and 14 percent are black.

The trade group says sales among minorities have jumped sharply, and note the breakdown closely resembles the demographics of the United States.

"Our survey shows organic has turned a corner," said OTA’s Batcha.

It’s April, 2017, and Nature is booming and burgeoning to a level not seen in my lifetime.

Since that statement directly refutes our State Religion, which holds that " Poor Mother Gaia is Dying, Crushed by the Virus-Like Burden of Mankind ", I’ve appended a recent example below to support it.

It’s from the State of Mississippi, and it’s headlined “State record gar caught at Sardis”. In it we learn that " Henson’s fish was big, 48-pounds, 1-ounce big and easily bested the standing state record of 40-pounds. "

“Easily bested”? “Big”? It beat the old record by almost ten pounds! That’s blatant hedging.

You may have noticed that they provided the numbers, but carefully omitted the percentage of the new record over the old, as printing it would be much more impactful, and go seriously off-message re: Poor Mother Gaia dying, and all. So I had to do the math. It’s 20% above the previous record. Such records are usually broken by tiny margins.

Later in the article, they had to move more toward center, and accurately said that the new record “shattered” the longnose gar “unlimited line class” record.

They let you know it was “by a whopping 34-pounds!”, but carefully omitted the percentage of the new record over the old, as printing it would be much more impactful, and go seriously off-message re: Poor Mother Gaia dying, and all. So I had to do the math. It’s 566% above the previous record. Such records are usually broken by tiny margins.

There’s a growing body of data in this thread of game records far beyond any seen in history, since we’ve been keeping records. And that data cross-references against another set, also in this thread, comprised of record seasonal crop totals, and even more crucially, record yields per acre. Keep your focus - most in history, ever.

The Poor Mother Gaia confidence game is collapsing, has collapsed. We’re three years into this, now. Do you think the programming refuting the reality I’m documenting will hold forever? I don’t. I think it’s a spell, a Black magic spell, and I’m refuting and breaking it here.

In Hawaii, the phrase “what you have given to me, I return to you” was used to send evil spells back to their creators. The dark magic only works if you accept it, or don’t refuse it. If you reject it, the Black Kahuna’s cannot refuse it, have to take it back upon themselves, to their ruin.

You can say it to them right now, as you read this. “What you have given to me, I return to you.”

Great, epochal positive changes are underway at every level of our reality. And those changes are increasing in speed and magnitude.

February 4, 2017 - Mississippi - State record gar caught at Sardis

JACKSON – On Saturday, Sept. 10, Mississippi angler Don Henson of Southaven went fishing at the Sardis Lake spillway and set a new state record.

Hoping to catch a monster catfish, Henson drifted a shad through the current. After fishing about 10 minutes, he noticed his float had disappeared and he was fast into a large fish.

“I just knew I had the biggest catfish at the end of my line,” said Henson. “We fought and fought and after about 15 minutes I had the fish at the edge!”

Rather than a giant catfish, Henson found himself hooked to a huge longnose gar. A passerby suggested that the big fish was possibly a state record and advised Henson to contact the MDWFP Fisheries Bureau.

Henson’s fish was big , 48-pounds, 1-ounce big and easily bested the standing state record of 40-pounds. The state record was formally announced Jan. 23, 2017.

A quick scan through the Fresh Water Fishing Hall of Fame and Museum list of official world and USA state fresh water angling records showed that Henson’s fish also shattered the standing longnose gar “unlimited line class” record by a whopping 34-pounds!

Henson recently received his World Record Fish certificate from the Fresh Water Fishing Hall of Fame.

The title of the article that follows is certainly positive enough: “World’s top cocoa grower is headed for a record harvest.”

You’ll notice that the headline carefully uses " World’s top cocoa grower " to hedge, instead of the more accurate " Ivory Coast “. It demeans the nation in a wonderfully colonial way, and makes the whole subject more vague and general. It also prods your subconscious to say " oh, the world’s TOP grower, I expect such large harvests from them .”

However cheerful that headline might be, the depth of the negativity in the article’s opening sentence is pretty stunning: " The scores of giant potholes that scar the roads from commercial capital Abidjan to Daloa in the heart of Ivory Coast’s cocoa belt have become deep, muddy puddles, filled by heavy tropical showers ."

It’s like a Haiku whose goal is complete evil.

You can see how they took special care to use the word " showers " instead of “rainfall” or “rains”. Because they’re hedging, and " showers " is softer, implies they are only-occasional - versus throughout the fine growing season, as in actuality.

They deepen it with the second sentence:

" While drivers making the tortuous journey from the Atlantic coast into the hot interior have reason to curse the wet weather, for farmers in the world’s largest cocoa producer the rains mean the prospect of another record crop ."

Just to level-set, you’re reading a story about back-to-back record crops, with “plentiful rainfall” and “beautiful weather” being the drivers.

The great artificial drought has been broken: “At Goudougo, there’s so much moisture in the soil of the plantations farmed by the 417 members of Baro’s cooperative that even daytime temperatures above 30 degrees Celsius haven’t dried out the ground. Trees are full of flowers and small pods, a sign that there may still be a lot to harvest at the end part of the mid crop, the smaller of two annual harvests that takes place between April and September.”

Can you see how it’s a " sign " there " may " still be a lot to harvest? Always hedging, defraying. They provide the numbers of the last record, and this new one, but carefully avoid printing the percentage, as doing so would be more impactful, and go seriously off-message re: Poor Mother Gaia dying, and all. So I had to do the math. It’s an 11% increase.

The article provides absolutely no mention of record harvests of all sorts, all over the globe, of course. And puts forth the tireless " increase in planted areas " canard:

" Production has also expanded in recent years as farmers moved into forested areas ." By what percentage, precisely, has production expanded, please? To be clear, I’m suggesting that the increase in planted area, while actual, is a minor factor in the overall phenomenon of the record harvest. And that the omission of any percentage in increase in planted area in the article suggests that my theory is correct.

Here’s how it would be written honestly and straightforwardly: “Last year planted areas increased X percent, leading to a Y percent total increase in production.”

" Moved into forested areas " is supposed to make you vaguely uneasy, and cast the farmers in a rapacious light. But in case you missed that queasy, smearing allusion, they give it to you straight up right afterward: " It’s an area on the edge of the cocoa heartland, where farmers have deforested the Marahoue national park to produce more beans ."

Actually, late in the article, they broadly allude to the fact that Nature is booming and burgeoning to a level not seen in my lifetime, but of course don’t state that fact outright: “ The price for cocoa beans in the world market has come down since late 2016 due to a large oversupply of beans, ”

No mention of what’s driving the plentiful rainfall, which is curious, don’t you think? I personally think it’s being driven by the slow, steady, widespread and ever-increasing distribution of simple, inexpensive Orgonite devices in the vicinity of the weather warfare infrastructure that many still mistakenly presume only carries cell phone traffic and weather radar data. While the establishment press often states that " global warming " or " increased carbon dioxide in the atmosphere " or " climate change " are driving the increased rainfall.

You will have to use your personal discernment to come to your own conclusions on the matter.

In the meantime, revel in the great news, that Nature is booming and burgeoning to a level not seen in our lifetimes:

April 4, 2017 - World’s top cocoa grower is headed for a record harvest

The scores of giant potholes that scar the roads from commercial capital Abidjan to Daloa in the heart of Ivory Coast’s cocoa belt have become deep, muddy puddles , filled by heavy tropical showers .

While drivers making the tortuous journey from the Atlantic coast into the hot interior have reason to curse the wet weather, for farmers in the world’s largest cocoa producer the rains mean the prospect of another record crop.

“We’ve got beneficial rains this season,” said Abdoulaye Baro, head of the Coopago cocoa cooperative in the town of Goudougo. “There’s lots of cocoa. This year it’s really good.”

The West African country’s crop will reach 2 million metric tons for the first time, according to a Bloomberg survey of six traders and exporters, breaking the previous record of 1.8 million tons set in 2014-15. In addition to lots of rain, the damaging dry winds that blow in from the Sahara desert were relatively weak this year. And it’s not just the right weather — growers have responded to years of high prices by planting trees that are now starting to produce beans.

While the country’s 800,000 smallholder cocoa farmers will have more beans than ever to sell to the commodity houses that supply the global confectionery industry, the bumper harvest risks tipping an already weak market into a full-blown slump. That’s a grave risk for the Ivorian economy, where cocoa is the biggest export earner.

This year’s worldwide surplus is expected to be more than 300,000 tons globally and a wave of defaults by buyers in the Ivory Coast have already helped send cocoa futures traded in London tumbling by about 30 percent since reaching a six-year high in July. The most-active cocoa contract was little changed at 1,688 pounds ($2,098) a ton on Tuesday.

“The price for cocoa beans in the world market has come down since late 2016 due to a large oversupply of beans, ” said Filip Buggenhout, managing director of cocoa at Cargill Cocoa & Chocolate, a unit of the world’s largest agricultural trader. “What you are seeing here is the market dictating price, cocoa farmers in Ivory Coast recently received the highest incomes in recent history.”

At Goudougo, there’s so much moisture in the soil of the plantations farmed by the 417 members of Baro’s cooperative that even daytime temperatures above 30 degrees Celsius haven’t dried out the ground. Trees are full of flowers and small pods, a sign that there may still be a lot to harvest at the end part of the mid crop, the smaller of two annual harvests that takes place between April and September.

Production has also expanded in recent years as farmers moved into forested areas. In the village of Banfla, kilometers of cocoa plantations lie near the Sassandra river that runs through the western half of the country. It’s an area on the edge of the cocoa heartland, where farmers have deforested the Marahoue national park to produce more beans . The recent run of high prices, coupled with the deterioration of soil in more traditional cocoa areas, have spread growing to even more remote parts of the country, especially in the nation’s far west.

To be sure, not all areas of Ivory Coast have had favorable rains. At the Coop Socags in Soubre, flowers and small pods that would be harvested during the mid-crop are scarce. While there’s quite a bit of cocoa being fermented and dried, few large pods are left on the trees. The eastern part of Ivory Coast has also been drier, with rainfall at 50 percent to 75 percent of normal, according to MDA Weather Services.

The weakening global cocoa market may also have an impact.

Production may fail to reach 2 million tons as a cut of 36 percent to the price paid to farmers for the mid-crop will reduce incentive for farmers to pick every single pod on trees and also lower farm husbandry and the use of fertilizers, Cocoanect said in a report Wednesday.

“In addition, more cocoa will flow to neighboring countries, especially Ghana,” which has said it will keep prices stable, said the Rotterdam-based trader. “We might also see cocoa being withheld towards the end of the season if it looks likely that we could see a rise again in farm gate prices for the 2017-18 season.”

At the town of Meagui, in the country’s southwest, flowers are back on trees and farmers say rains have been good and production for the mid-crop is promising. Wet weather will help them harvest bigger beans for this crop — about 120 beans per kilogram compared with 150 to 180 last year.

“This year, rains have favored crops and the small harvest will be more like the main one in terms of quality and bean size,” said Kone Tiegbato, director of the USCM COOP-CA, a union of cooperatives at Meagui.

While it’s too early to forecast production for next season, analysts believe the market has entered a period of structural surpluses. Tropical Research Services, which advises several hedge funds, expects excess supply of more than 300,000 tons this season and the next.

For Ivory Coast, new trees coming into production will help keep output buoyant in the absence of severe weather events. After four years of rising prices, many farmers are also replanting new varieties, which can reach production in 18 months instead of the regular five years.

“Production is forecast at 1.9 million tons but it’s not excluded that Ivory Coast reaches 2 million tons,” Jean-Marc Anga, executive director at the International Cocoa Organization, said in an interview in Abidjan. “We usually issue quite conservative figures.”

Boosts appreciated, I’m under a pretty heavy assault right now. I’m job searching, and everything that was hot has gone cold. Feels like a spell, a dome of negative energy. I’m boosting them, sending it back to them, and asking for assistance, here.

Still feeling like I’m winning, we’re winning, here.

It’s March, 2017, and Nature is booming and burgeoning to a level not seen in my lifetime. Since that statement directly refutes our State Religion, which holds that " Poor Mother Gaia is Dying, Crushed by the Virus-like Burden of Mankind ", I’ve appended a recent story from Oklahoma, below, to support it.

" Evidence of Oklahoma’s bumper crop of big bucks was in no short supply at the Wildlife Department’s first March Rack Madness event held March 6 ."

A bumper crop of big bucks, hm, things seem to be going O.K. with Mother Gaia in OK. I crack myself up.

The story features a biggest-ever rack, from last season, which was 7% larger than the previous record holder, from 1973. I think that it’s data like this, which we’re seeing again and again, which is going to break the game open on Death energy’s role in life and general vitality within the larger environment.

The story correctly says that the old record ’ was smashed — and in a big way ."

They wrote that because such records are usually broken by tiny margins.

When you see animals bigger than they’ve ever been, in all history, and crop yields higher than they’ve ever been, in all history, you’re seeing greater vitality in Nature.

Why is that vitality on the increase, right now? Why was it low, before? Why is there a general blackout on the topic in the media?

March 16, 2017 - Muskogee, OK - Several records set at March Rack Madness

Records are made to be broken, so the saying goes. This record was smashed — and in a big way.

Evidence of Oklahoma’s bumper crop of big bucks was in no short supply at the Wildlife Department’s first March Rack Madness event held March 6.

Attendees presented more than two dozen deer antler sets (and one pronghorn) for certified measurers to examine and render an official number.

The highlight of the event was a public scoring session of the potential record mule deer harvested this past season in Cimarron County by Ron Jones of Pryor.

Observers ringed a table to watch during the hour-long process as a panel of Wildlife Department scorers carefully worked through the measurements.

“OK, are you all ready for the news?” asked Wade Free, assistant director of operations for the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation, as soon as the numbers had been double-checked. “Mr. Jones’ non-typical mule deer nets 226 4/8-inches, which is the new state (Cy Curtis) record.”

Jones said he was ecstatic that his muley now tops the non-typical list of trophy mule deer in Oklahoma’s Cy Curtis Awards Program, which recognizes hunters who harvest trophy game animals. His rack obliterated the previous top ranked non-typical muley by 11 4/8, a record held by Chris Hensley of Mooreland for a harvest he made 43 years ago.

The words " mystery ", " baffled " and " puzzled " are memes, used, among numerous similar variants, whenever anyone in the wholly-controlled-and-coopted Political, Academic, Scientific and Media establishments wants to lie about, well, basically anything. One of those variants is " unknown ".

That’s why a story below, headlined "‘ Extreme drop’ in 2017 Portland gang crime “, has a subhead which says " Cause for drop unknown .”

It tells that there have been 10 acts of gang violence this year, versus 25 for the same period a year previously. That’s a 60% drop. You’ll notice how, formulaically, they gave you the numbers, but carefully omitted the percentage, as including it would have been more impactful. So I had to do the math.

You can also see in the story how, formulaically, they don’t note how this local event maps against dropping crime rates across the globe.

The officer quoted in the article " said police haven’t been able to identify a single cause to the sudden drop in violence.
He said he’s never seen a month where there was just one known act of gang violence. Livingston has been with the GET for 7 years.
“It may have to do with the weather,” Livingston said. “But it’s only a guess .”

What weather? I thought last year was the hottest year in the history of planet Earth, and this one’s even hotter?

The quoted talking head and the reporter are both bravely sticking to the Party Line, because you gotta go along to get along, and the first rule of Fight Club is that you don’t talk about Fight Club.

If you read this thread for two days, or a week, you know about historically-low crime levels, across the globe. Here, a police supervisor, who knew they were going to be quoted in this story, blissfully unaware of larger crime trends? A mainstream press reporter, in a major regional story on dropping crime, also blissfully unaware of same?

We’re very close to the goal line, now, because with your reporter saying " unknown " in the subhead, and your quoted stooge saying " maybe it’s the weather… " is not going to put off the people asking questions .

“Boss, there’s a buncha people downstairs, and they’re asking questions .”

" Confidence games ", or " Cons " have a lifespan. Con artists used to keep a packed bag under their bed, ready to flee town at midnight, if the rubes “got wise” to the con.

People are getting wise to the con.

March 2, 2017 - ‘Extreme drop’ in 2017 Portland gang crime

Cause for drop unknown

ORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) – It’s a number police and community members are celebrating.

For the month of February, there was only 1 new case assigned to the Portland Police Bureau’s Gang Enforcement Team (GET). The shooting happened February 2 near SE 122nd Avenue and Stark Street and involved people shooting at each other from two different vehicles. Six casings were recovered from the scene.

Portland Police Sgt. Don Livingston, a GET supervisor, said police haven’t been able to identify a single cause to the sudden drop in violence.

He said he’s never seen a month where there was just one known act of gang violence . Livingston has been with the GET for 7 years.

“It may have to do with the weather,” Livingston said. “But it’s only a guess.”

To date, the bureau has investigated 10 acts of gang violence for 2017, which is down from 25 acts of violence during the same time period in 2016.

“We are extremely low,” Livingston said.

When shootings drop, like they did during February, detectives with GET are able to work on cases that remain unsolved.

“We have a lot of unsolved cases right now,” Livingston said. Most of those unsolved crimes come from 2015 and 2016.

In an email, Tom Peavey, the policy manager for the Office of Youth Violence Prevention said, “lives are being saved, lives are being restored.”

Livingston said while the bureau is “happy” with the recent drop in gang violence, they are very aware that history shows come spring break, gang violence usually increases.

A 10-day December mission dubbed “Operation Safe Holidays,” helped target some of the most “active” gang individuals, according to Livingston.

Police arrested a total of 42 people for a variety of crimes and seized nine firearms.

“Many of the people arrested were specifically identified as people involved in recent gun, gang and/or violent crime incidents,” police spokesperson Sgt. Pete Simpson said.

Livingston also credits gang outreach workers, the DA’s Office and parole and probation officers for their efforts in helping keep the city safe.

In all of 2016, police investigated 82 gang-related shootings, in which 29 people were shot and one person was killed. A total of 748 casings were recovered.

Police and community members became increasingly alarmed in early 2015 when they noticed a surge of gang violence. Police will remember 2015 as a historic year for gang violence in the city. The bureau responded to 185 shootings.

According to bureau records, 73 people were shot during acts of gang violence in 2015 and 15 people killed. A total of 1,186 casings were recovered.

On Wednesday, a man in his 20s was shot in the area of Southeast 129th and East Burnside Street. Detectives assigned to GET are now investigating the case.

It’s March, 2017, and crime levels are as low as they’ve been in my lifetime. In fact, in many cases, they’re as low as they’ve been since they started keeping records.

Since those factual statements go against the general rhetoric deployed in politics and the media, I’ve appended multiple recent examples below to support them.

One current news story, below, tells us that " L.A. Police See Drop in Latino Reports of Crime Amid Deportation Fears ".

While another story, from just five days prior, tells us " Immigrants, regardless of their legal status, commit crimes at lower rates than do native-born citizens. Since 1990, violent crime rates have dropped by half, while the number of immigrants doubled, and the number of undocumented immigrants tripled, the report says. It cites a University of Buffalo study that examined crime in 200 metro areas with varying immigrant population sizes. Researchers found that cities with larger immigrant communities saw much greater declines in homicides than did cities with smaller immigrant populations ."

Crime dropping since 1990, and the immigrants more law abiding, not less, along the way from then to now. But they confuse the issue, in that, while immigrant populations increased, we’d need a granular analysis of immigrants as a total percentage of population, and non-immigrants as total percentage of populations.

For someone who actually KNOWS statistics, it would be simple enough to document crimes committed, and the immigration status of those committing them, and then figuring out the percentage of legal vs. illegal as percentage of total population, to see just who is more law-abiding.

Whatever the case, the " deportation fears " canard is a micro-level plausible-deniability excuse, put forward to keep your eyes off the larger pattern we’re discussing and documenting here.

In New Haven, CT, two months ago, we saw that " Half as many New Haveners get shot each year as they did a decade ago, and community policing deserves much of the credit, officials declared Thursday… " No mention of citizenship status here!

But, rather, just another micro-level plausible-deniability excuse, put forward to keep your eyes off the larger patter we’re discussing and documenting here.

We learn that " Homicides dropped from 15 to 13 from the year before. Robberies with firearms dropped 27 percent, overall robberies 17 percent, aggravated assaults 2.8 percent ."

So, how come they did the math on all the statistics, except homicide? That was a very careful omission. It’s a 13% drop!

This thread is now in its fourth year. Tracking great, epochal positive changes during those years. Here’s a data point for you:

" The city saw an average of 126 shootings a year from 2003-2012; for the last four years the number has remained in the 60s. Over the past five years (a high point used as a benchmark), the number of annual homicides dropped 61 percent, robberies 48.4 percent, burglaries 40.8 percent, and aggravated assaults 29.1 percent ."

Another recent story below is headlined " Seattle saw drop in crime from 2016, report says. " While that’s factually, correct, crime did drop, you have to dig way, way down in the article, to where they buried this: " Across the board, crime in the observed categories was reduced by 14 percent since the same period of time last year, going from 8,878 total crimes to 7,643 ", to learn the magnitude of the drop.

So the honest headline would read “Seattle saw 14% drop in crime from 2016”, and instead you got a hedging headline, " Seattle saw drop in crime from 2016" , and they buried the statistic. Oh, and no mention of immigrants.

That same story goes on to say " Seattle saw just two cases of homicide between January and mid-March this year, a marginal decrease from the six cases it saw last year ."

Marginal: when something is minimal or barely enough

Going from six down to two is a sixty six percent drop. Which the reporter writing the article described as " marginal ". Would you describe a 66% drop, to the lowest levels ever seen in history, as " marginal ", or " minimal "?

One of the most cheering nuggets in these very-cheering stories is this one, from New Haven, CT:

" According to a case study carried out by the Center for Government Excellence, the department had been using stat programs by the time O’Toole was sworn in as the Chief of SPD in June 2013. They were called “Crime Review” and “Crime Capsule.” But O’Toole saw that crime and operations data was seldom utilized, so she requested that the crime data center compile monthly reports on property crimes by precinct. This yielded clear results, showing that the “numbers told a different story than the anecdotal remarks. ”

Here we’ve seen a new, female(!) police chief was sworn in in 2013, right when the great positive changes we’re discussing got underway. She made them use the statistical software they had, but inexplicably weren’t using. And it stopped the department’s ability to lie about stuff. I said it very aggressively, just there, while the article says it very softly, " This yielded clear results, showing that the “numbers told a different story than the anecdotal remarks .”

So great positive changes are underway, even within the very police department’s we’re discussing . Everything’s changing, everyone’s changing, for the better.

Well, most folks are, anyway. The tactics I’ve arduously outlined in this post are no different than those documented previously in posts on the same subject. They are the same, formulaic tactics, used in every city in every nation on Earth, by members of the wholly-controlled-and-coopted Political, Academic and Scientific establishments who know that they need to go along to get along, and that the first rule of Fight Club is that you don’t talk about Fight Club.

The tactics and the players aren’t changing, one iota, but the world they inhabit is changing, epochally, for the better.

Just what do you think is going to happen to those players, and their tired tactics, and when do you think it’s going to happen?

I think they’re going to be voted out, kicked, out, replaced by new, more honest police chiefs, who are going to implement the software programs the previous chief inexplicably wasn’t using.

January 12, 2017 - New Haven, CT - Crime Drop Heralded

Half as many New Haveners get shot each year as they did a decade ago , and community policing deserves much of the credit, officials declared Thursday with the release of 2016 year-end crime statistics.

They released the statistics at a press conference held on the third floor of police headquarters. at 1 Union Ave.

Homicides dropped from 15 to 13 from the year before. Robberies with firearms dropped 27 percent, overall robberies 17 percent, aggravated assaults 2.8 percent.

Shootings actually inched up from 63 to 67, and shots fired leaped from 105 to 160. But, the police said, the latter statistics may reflect a tripling in the capacity of the computerized ShotSpotter system that tracks shots fired (including those fired by cops at the range).

And the number of shootings has steadily declined in town over the past 13 years: The city saw an average of 126 shootings a year from 2003-2012; f or the last four years the number has remained in the 60s.

Over the past five years (a high point used as a benchmark), the number of annual homicides dropped 61 percent, robberies 48.4 percent, burglaries 40.8 percent, and aggravated assaults 29.1 percent.

March 16, 2017 - Higher Immigration May Have Aided Crime Drop, Study Says

Immigrants, regardless of their legal status, commit crimes at lower rates than do native-born citizens , reports The Sentencing Project in a summary of research on the subject. The advocacy group says that higher levels of immigration in recent decades “may have contributed to the historic drop in crime rates,” and that police chiefs believe that intensifying immigration enforcement undermines public safety. The group notes that immigrants are under-represented in U.S. prisons.

Since 1990, violent crime rates have dropped by half, while the number of immigrants doubled, and the number of undocumented immigrants tripled, the report says. It cites a University of Buffalo study that examined crime in 200 metro areas with varying immigrant population sizes. Researchers found that cities with larger immigrant communities saw much greater declines in homicides than did cities with smaller immigrant populations.

March 18, 2017 - Seattle saw drop in crime from 2016, report says

Crime is down in Seattle across most reported categories, according to a Seattle Police Department report released Wednesday.

The most recent SeaStat report compares crime data from 2016 and 2017 that occurred in Seattle between January 1 and March 15. These include everything from vehicle theft and arson to homicide and aggravated assault, among other crimes committed against both person and property.

The SeaStat report is a collection of data that helps the department allocate its resources and more effectively combat serious crime.

The report shows that crime fell in all categories but two: domestic violence and arson. Across the board, crime in the observed categories was reduced by 14 percent since the same period of time last year , going from 8,878 total crimes to 7,643.

Seattle saw just two cases of homicide between January and mid-March this year, a marginal decrease from the six cases it saw last year.

According to a case study carried out by the Center for Government Excellence, the department had been using stat programs by the time O’Toole was sworn in as the Chief of SPD in June 2013. They were called “Crime Review” and “Crime Capsule.” But O’Toole saw that crime and operations data was seldom utilized , so she requested that the crime data center compile monthly reports on property crimes by precinct. This yielded clear results, showing that the “numbers told a different story than the anecdotal remarks.”

March 21, 2017 - L.A. Police See Drop in Latino Reports of Crime Amid Deportation Fears

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Latinos in Los Angeles are lodging fewer reports of rape and spousal abuse to police so far this year amid heightened concerns among immigrants that contact with law enforcement could lead to deportation, police Chief Charlie Beck said on Tuesday.

Beck cited 41 fewer reports of rape - down 25 percent - and 118 fewer domestic violence complaints - a 10 percent drop - among the city’s Hispanic residents since January, compared with the same period of 2016.

[Jeff]

Check out how, in the first story below, last year’s lone homicide in Elk Grove, CA was committed by an off-duty corrections officer . Fatal DUI. Classic.

In the second example, " Did Florida’s stand your ground law reduce violent crime? ", you’ll see a Fight Club talking head trying to say that a single law in a single state drove down violent crime rates - within a larger environment of dropping crime rates. These guys are nothing if not aggressive. To their credit, the authors of the article shred the feeble, micro-level plausible-deniability excuse, put forth to keep the readers eyes off the larger picture we’re documenting and discussing here.

In the third example, from Arlington, MA, the headline cheering uses the actual percentage, and is written correctly: " Police report 19% drop in serious crimes in 2016. "

The phenomenon of drastically dropping crime rates is real, it’s ongoing. What’s driving it? What’s causing this general level of betterment within societies around the globe?

I am demonstrating over time that the media organs of this nation and every other are consistently putting forth illogical, irrational plausible-deniability excuses for this great societal change, and that they further generally refuse to connect local instances of that societal change with the larger pattern I just mentioned.

I think that the dropping crime rate is an outgrowth of the undoing of what the people who rule us sometimes refer to as their " Great Work of Ages ". They’ve been building and expanding a Death-energy network on this globe all the back to Babylon, and before - coopting the Earth’s energy grid, injecting Death energy into that grid at key places and times with horrific animal and human sacrifices.

Within this context you can see the crucial role played by the teaching " there’s no such thing as the Ether. "

The slow, steady, widespread and ever-increasing distribution of simple, inexpensive orgonite devices is transforming that grid back to its natural state, and we’re seeing a return to life and vitality around the globe.

That rising tide is lifting all the boats. As the population rises in health, vitality and discernment, the cover stories that the folks who clandestinely built the Death energy network used will unravel, the con will break down, and collapse, like cons do.

Con artists are not omniscient, nor are they omnipotent. People “get wise” to con artists. People are “getting wise.”

We can very easily live in a time, a world where we don’t let such people take advantage of us, falsely gain our " confidence ."

March 1, 2017 - Elk Grove, CA - EG crime rate dropped in ‘16

In comparing violent crime data from last year to 2015 - assaults dropped from 751 to 706 cases, robberies fell from 105 to 96 cases, and homicides were even at one case last year and one case in 2015.

Noblett said that based on preliminary data, Elk Grove’s property crimes dropped by 24 percent and violent crimes fell by 6.4 percent last year.

Last year’s lone homicide was a fatal DUI collision on Laguna Boulevard that resulted in the arrest of an off-duty corrections officer who pleaded guilty this January.

March 16, 2017 - Did Florida’s stand your ground law reduce violent crime?

Data from the FBI’s Uniform Crime Reporting statistics shows that from 2005 to 2015, the violent crime rate in Florida decreased by a cumulative 34.9 percent overall.

The bigger problem is Baxley’s assertion that the “stand your ground” law led to a demonstrable reduction on violent crime. (He confirmed through an aide that that was his point.)

In reality, violent crime in the United States has decreased since the 1990s, except for an uptick in the past two years that has come nowhere near erasing the previous quarter century of declines.

Given that, it’s hard to separate the downward trend in violent crime in Florida from the decline on the national level, which was also mirrored in many individual states.

"I would posit that it has had little or no effect on any decrease," added Charles Rose, a Stetson University law professor.

Baxley did not offer any evidence that showed “stand your-ground” had a demonstrable impact on crime.

March 19, 2017 - Arlington, MA - Police report 19% drop in serious crimes in 2016

The Arlington Police Department saw a 19-percent drop in serious crimes from 2016 compared to the previous year, Police Chief Frederick Ryan has announced.

The decline came in Part 1 crimes, a category designated by the FBI to be the most serious crimes affecting a community. They include murder/manslaughter, rape, robbery, aggravated assault, burglary, larceny, arson and motor vehicle theft.

In 2016, there were a total of 370 such crimes reported in Arlington, compared to 457 reported in 2015, a March 2 news release from John Guilfoil said.

A closer look at the data show a decrease in four of the eight categories listed, and one category remained unchanged from 2015 to 2016.

Arlington had 42 reported burglaries in 2016, exactly half as many as 2015. Sixteen motor vehicles were reported stolen, whereas 28 were stolen in 2015. Larcenies were also down, with 270 in 2016 compared to over 300 last year.

There were no murders in Arlington in 2015 or 2016.

Three arson fires were reported in 2016, compared to zero in 2015.

“While noting that there is always more work to do, I am very proud of the work done by our officers and community partners,” Ryan said in a statement. "We have seen a consistent decrease in crime in our community over the past three years. As we become more sophisticated about making data-driven decisions in the deployment of our valuable resources we are beginning to realize the fruits of our hard work.

“There was of course no way of knowing whether you were being watched at any given moment. How often, or on what system, the Thought Police plugged in on any individual wire was guesswork. It was even conceivable that they watched everybody all the time. But at any rate they could plug in your wire whenever they wanted to. You had to live—did live, from habit that became instinct—in the assumption that every sound you made was overheard, and, except in darkness, every movement scrutinized.”

George Orwell, from "1984"

It’s March, 2017, and crime levels are dropping precipitously all over the globe. They’ve actually been dropping since the early 1990’s.

Since those simple truths are tirelessly rebutted by the wholly-controlled-and-coopted Media organs of every city of every nation on Earth, that’s not how many people see it today. So I appended three more current examples below to support my assertions. They’re similar to the also-current examples I posted yesterday, and the day before.

At this moment in history, many people also don’t “see”, grasp or accept that many responses recorded on internet forums are made by paid agents of the folks in charge. With " trolls " used as the meme word to hide them behind, implying it’s “one bad-apple” citizens, spoiling the barrel.

If I used the term " secret agent ", while completely accurate, it would be too loaded with programming to be of effective use.

One of the stories below, from Massachusetts, is headlined " Cambridge says crime at 55-year low ."

They’re referring to Cambridge University. Wherein the word " says " hedges on its face. It’s grade-schooly…‘reports’ would be more neutral.

In that story, they tell us first that violent crime dropped 7%, then that property crimes decreased 8%, and finally that violent crime last year was down 75% from 1990 - the most violent year in city records. That tiered positioning of percentages is not accidental, but rather very careful. They positioned the largest and most impactful percentage last , as it was the best hedging they could muster in the situation. It’s formulaic, part of a formula .

Down below the story, in comments, the first comment: " More fake news from the People’s Republic! " That little comment getting 19 ‘likes.’

I’m guessing a large majority of the populace, if polled, would pick “private citizen”, versus “paid government agent” on a multiple choice test, if asked who had posted it.

" Fake news " is a big, big buzz-meme right now. “I’m so confused, I don’t know WHAT to think!” That’s the goal. So an agent , a spook, a stooge, watching that forum among many others as part of their literal job, got the first comment. Then a bunch of their paid-agent peers chimed in with the ‘likes’. Some subset of those ‘likes’ are also from credulous-citizen rubes who bit on the baited hook, I’m guessing it’s a small number.

The next comment, the second comment:

" how do residents FEEL about crime? That is more important. I think if you ask around people in Cambridge BELIEVE that crime is on the rise. I think they FEEL less safe. If not then why does everyone lock their doors nowadays? They sure didn’t 55 years ago.People are terrified. This liberal city is a disaster. Total disaster. "

Cranky negativist, or paid agent, you make the call! That got a dozen ‘likes’, by the way.

First comment, second comment, owning the discourse, the literal ‘thought police’. Read up on the “Delphi Protocols” if you want to know more about the science of these matters.

However, sum-total, waving their hands and saying " it’s not happening! " isn’t very effective, wouldn’t you agree? But it’s the best they’ve got, I’m afraid.

It’s a process: denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance. How do you think the people using such tactics to hold back the anger feel, right about now? I think they are shitting bricks, are terrified, because the confidence game they’ve run so successfully for so long is just about over for them.

Such games only work for so long. It’s why the story " The Emperor’s New Clothes " has found a place in the psyche of our culture.

It just struck me as I wrote that - there was just one person speaking up, right? And yet it changed everything, then EVERYONE could see.

In the future, children will read in textbooks " hard as it is for us to imagine now, the people lived in a Police State, but didn’t consciously realize it, or admit it to themselves. It took tireless programming over generations to get that mental state in place ."

The world that this crafty, hidden, literally blood-drinking cabal currently owns and is managing is changing, quickly and drastically, for the better. While they are not. What do you think is going to happen to them, going forward?

Occult means ‘hidden’. Hidden in plain sight, in this case.

February 15, 2017 - Florida - Marco Island experiences lowest crime rate since 2000

The City of Marco Island is currently experiencing its lowest crime rate in 17 years, according to a Marco Island Police Department (MIPD) news release.

The MIPD investigated 96 crimes in 2016, the lowest number of crimes reported on the island since the department’s inception in 2000, according to the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s (FBI) Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) program.

According to the news release, violent crimes on the island decreased 83.5 percent from 2015 to 2016 ; specifically, aggravated assaults decreased 87.5 percent and simple assaults decreased 24 percent.

February 28, 2017 - New York - Mayor: Rochester has lowest crime rate in 30 years

Mayor Lovely Warren praised the men and women of the Rochester Police Department on Tuesday for their work to reduce violent crime and make the city safer. The comments came as she and Police Chief Michael Ciminelli released a detailed report of crime statistics for 2016.

The report concluded that serious crime declined in Rochester in 2016 and the city had its lowest crime rate in 30 years.

The number of shooting victims fell from 228 to 184, a 19 percent reduction from 2015 and 9 percent below the five-year average . It’s the lowest total in five years.

March 2, 2017 - Massachusetts - Cambridge says crime at 55-year low

The Cambridge Police Department today released statistics that showed another drop in crime rates in 2016 - to the lowest point since 1961.

According to CPD, 271 violent crimes were reported in Cambridge last year, a 7% drop from 2015. Property crimes decreased 8%, the department says.

Violent crime last year was down 75% from 1990 - the most violent year in city records.

“This last was for the disposal of waste paper. Similar slits existed in thousands or tens of thousands throughout the building, not only in every room but at short intervals in every corridor. For some reason they were nicknamed memory holes. When one knew that any document was due for destruction, or even when one saw a scrap of waste paper lying about, it was an automatic action to lift the flap of the nearest memory hole and drop it in, whereupon it would be whirled away on a current of warm air to the enormous furnaces which were hidden somewhere in the recesses of the building.”

George Orwell, from "1984"

Think I’m trenchant? Wait until you get a load of Jim Corbett, below, riffing on McDonald’s.

However, he is a dupe at best and a disinformation artist at worst, because here’s his thesis on the continuing decline of McDonald’s:

" On the depressing front, there is a simple reason for the across-the-board slowdown in fast food sales in recent years (despite the predictable attempts to overcomplicate the problem in clickbait-y listicle format). For once, the Wall Street Journal gets it right: It’s the economy, stupid. What greater rebuke to the easily-disprovable economic “recovery” nonsense of the Obama years could be possible than pointing out the simple fact that people are too worried about their economic future to splurge on a $5 value meal ?"

No mention of changing world-views, people understanding that food is medicine. Just another feeble prop for the Fight Club party line, and no mention of the great tide of positive change that is sweeping them away.

If McDonald’s woes are being driven by " the economy, stupid ", and " people are too worried about their economic future to splurge on a $5 value meal ", as the rogue attests, how does a 2016 Harris Poll failing to rank McDonald’s among the top seven burger chains in America factor in, there?

Privately held In-and-Out, Five Guys, and Culver’s claimed the top three spots in that order. Placed in those medal-winning positions by people who were and are obviously not too worried about their economic futures to splurge on a $5 meal at those privately-held restaurants.

If that’s true, then why is the article that information is from headlined " America Loves These 2 Burger Chains More Than McDonald’s ", with a subhead that reads " Why do Americans prefer Wendy’s and Sonic over McDonald’s? "

You can see that they memory-holed the privately-held businesses, the ones owning the lineup, crowding the medal stand. That’s because you live in the Fascist States of Uhmericuh, and I’ve just scientifically proven it, here and now.

That hand-wringing subhead, " Why do Americans prefer Wendy’s and Sonic over McDonald’s? ", tee’s you up for them to tell you What To Think, and finishes with the meme of the question mark, which is a stylized crook of Osiris. The folks in charge are lying to you about basically everything, including the question mark, which is why the Oxford English Dictionary says " Rather fittingly, the origins of the question mark are clouded in myth and mystery. "

They said that because the words " mystery ", " baffled " and " puzzled " are memes, used, among numerous similar variants, whenever anyone in the wholly-controlled-and-coopted Political, Academic, Scientific and Media establishments wants to lie about, well, basically anything.

Disinformation must contain kernels of actual truth to work, which is why the Disinformation Artist named Jim Corbett buried this way, way at the bottom of his article:

“People are fed up with fast food. And although some, concerned with cost, are turning to eating at home as the cheaper option, others are more concerned with what’s in their food, where it’s sourced from, how it’s being prepared and who is being paid for it. Who wants instant, nutritionless, food-like substitute rolled up in plastic and slapped down on a tray by surly, overworked servers (or, increasingly, robots) anyway?”

So he leads with " it’s the economy, stupid ", pounds that irrational, illogical message, then retreats with some truth and reason at the very, very end, where you’ve already snoozed off, so he looks more even-handed, looks less like the two-faced shill that he actually is.

The impact was in the stuff up front, which is why the headline is so important, why the first paragraph or two is so important.

January 23, 2015 - McDonald’s sales plunge. CEO calls results ‘disappointing’

The fast food giant reported a 10% drop in quarterly sales and earnings per share on Thursday.

May 19, 2016 - McDonald’s 2016 Revenues To Decline YoY Despite Improvement

June 16, 2016 - America Loves These 2 Burger Chains More Than McDonald’s

Why do Americans prefer Wendy’s and Sonic over McDonald’s?

In a recent Harris Poll, which ranks domestic brands based on familiarity, quality, and customer service, McDonald’s failed to rank among the top seven burger chains in America . Privately held In-and-Out, Five Guys, and Culver’s claimed the top three spots in that order. Only two publicly traded companies – Wendy’s (NASDAQ: WEN) at number four and Sonic (NASDAQ: SONC) at number five – made the list. To make matters worse, Harris states that it reviewed McDonald’s during the study, but that it ranked below the category average.

January 10, 2017 - The Continuing Decline of McDonald’s

Jim Corbett

Long-time Corbett Reporteers might recall my 2015 video, “Celebrate! McDonald’s is Dying!” where I detailed the many, many woes the fast “food” giant was dealing with at the time, including:

The first quarterly loss in the firm’s 38 years as a publicly traded company ($343.8 million).

Its first full-year loss ($186 million) in Japan in 11 years.

A 58 cent per share drop on the back of a global comparable sales drop of 3.3%.

Since then, McCancer’s has been undergoing a sweeping “restructuring” that has seen many layers of lipstick slapped on their factory-farmed pig. This restructuring includes not only cosmetic changes (“All-day breakfasts and new value menus for everyone!”) but behind-the-scenes efforts to trim $500 million from the company’s operating expenses, including buyouts and layoffs at company headquarters and the re-franchising of 4,000 corporate “restaurants.”

The global giant’s influential PR machine has used sleight-of-hand and other tricks to make this restructuring look like a smash success. They used their cheerleaders at the Wall Street Journal to hype “stronger-than-expected” profit and sales figures and their boosters at US News & World Report to hype some highly-selective earnings comparisons suggesting that this “turnaround” is, to use the WSJ’s phrase, “sustainable.”

But one doesn’t have to scratch too hard to reveal the rusty reality beneath this PR paint job.

McPinkslime’s might have “beat expectations” for sales and profits, but beating diminished expectations is hardly a sign of booming business. Just look at the nuts and bolts of the Q3 2016 earnings report: Year-on-year revenue is down 2.9% and net income is down 2.6%. And keep in mind, those numbers are in comparison to the already-terrible 2015 figures.

And that “re-franchising” operation? It cost $130 million in pre-tax charges.

But don’t worry, everyone, they “beat expectations!” Pay no attention to the hemorrhaging corporation behind the curtain!

And now the latest sign of McDonteat’s global retreat (via Corbett Report member “BuddhaForce”): “McDonald’s gives up control of its China business in $2 billion deal.”

The story is fascinating enough in its own right, what with McDonteats throwing in the corporate towel on the largest and fastest-growing consumer market in the world. But the devil is, as always, in the details. Who is purchasing the majority stake in the company’s mainland operations? None other than The Carlyle Group and CITIC Group.

The Carlyle Group’s name will likely ring a bell as one of the largest swamp pits “private equity firms” in the world, and one with its fingers in many a pie, including, of course, 9/11.

CITIC Group, meanwhile, will be familiar to The Corbett Report faithful as a key player in “China and the New World Order,” a Chinese state-owned investment company that helped serve as the Rockefeller-Kissinger nexus between the Deng Xiaoping-era “capitalist roaders” and their western finance oligarch recolonizers.

That these two cesspools are converging on the giant turd of American fast food is fitting enough. The McDonaldization of China is proceeding apace, and the usual crew are there to profit from it.

But as to what this story says about the continuing decline of the once-mighty golden arches, there are two main takeaways to the story, one depressing and one positive.

On the depressing front, there is a simple reason for the across-the-board slowdown in fast food sales in recent years (despite the predictable attempts to overcomplicate the problem in clickbait-y listicle format). For once, the Wall Street Journal gets it right: It’s the economy, stupid. What greater rebuke to the easily-disprovable economic “recovery” nonsense of the Obama years could be possible than pointing out the simple fact that people are too worried about their economic future to splurge on a $5 value meal?

But on a positive note, we can take McFatfood’s woes as a sign that, try as they might with their considerable propaganda resources, the corporate chieftains can’t put their egg McMuffin back together again. People are fed up with fast food. And although some, concerned with cost, are turning to eating at home as the cheaper option, others are more concerned with what’s in their food, where it’s sourced from, how it’s being prepared and who is being paid for it. Who wants instant, nutritionless, food-like substitute rolled up in plastic and slapped down on a tray by surly, overworked servers (or, increasingly, robots) anyway?

For those interested in how they can take part in the real food revolution that will render the McFastfood economy obsolete, may I humbly offer this podcast on guerrilla gardening? Bon appétit!

You don’t keel over the instant you eat a weaponized cheeseburger, in the same way that taking a cell phone call while eating that burger won’t kill you right away, either.

But slowly, steadily, people are realizing that, down over time, what you eat has a very large impact on your health.

Did I mention I love weaponized cheeseburgers? Actually, that’s unclear - rather, I love cheeseburgers so much I’ll even eat ones that I know have been weaponized.

The “there’s absolutely no difference between organic food and food grown using pesticides” argument betrays those putting it forward. I could see running with “the difference is very negligible” or “the cost/benefit’s just not there”, those would be more honest. But they reach too far.

They reach too far because they’re desperate. The growth of organic food is another losing battle for the barely-closeted Death worshippers who for the moment still run things on this globe, and it’s a big one. Have you noticed they’re losing all the battles, these days?

The folks in charge are really pissed about it. Which is why an article below says " That’s good news for an industry that was hit hard by the economic downturn but now seems to be returning to rude health as more shoppers say organic food is worth paying the premium for. "

Where " seems " and " say " hedge bitterly. And " returning to rude health "?

That’s technically correct, in that “rude health"is " British, old-fashioned - strong and healthy We hope to find you in rude health when we arrive .”

But you KNOW that rude has an extremely negative connotation. And I’d guess no one alive in the U.S. has ever heard someone say " in rude health ". It’s an obvious, noxious, gymnastic spin to the negative.

At this moment in time, demand exceeds supply for organic food. When I was growing up, farming wasn’t cool, everyone was leaving farming, we watched films of combines cruising on gigantic fields out in the great plains, somewhere, that was farming. Our houses in Eastern Pennsylvania were built on the corn farms of the old-folk corn farmers who were dying or retiring, whose kids didn’t take up the trade. It was already taboo to go into the “Vo-Tech” program, and take up a trade. To say one was going to take up farming would have been insane.

Now, a single generation later, there’s a farm market at the food of my street here in Pittsburgh every weekend, it’s really vibrant. There’s a big bus, set up with freezers full of fresh meats. Guy’s got T-shirts that say “Farming is King.” My home town’s got a farm market every weekend, too, also vibrant.

The world, humanity, can transform in any direction, and has, down over time. Further, throughout history, the machinations of a hidden, malevolent few have clandestinely directed the progress of humanity, in directions not good for humanity, or Nature.

And as we awaken, we’re going to return to the life we left behind, slowly, steadily, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16. No one believes me.

Horse and buggy transportation will come back into being, first just a few signal examples, way out in rural areas. Oh, wait, we’re already there, the Amish never stopped. But then it’s going to become some off-the-front non-Amish family. And then in a few in each town.

Then, at some point, people are going to figure out that the communities who have moved “the farthest into the past” are the best ones, the places where you would most want to live. No power boats in the water, sorry, row or raise a sail.

Young adults will again take up trades, feeling the greatness of having a job someone can’t take away, the greatness of doing things yourself, here, now, where you live.

Technology-free zones, with technology in specific, shielded buildings, loaded with Orgonite. Wires shielded, no spewing wifi through the air, sorry. It may be that technology withers away like, oh, I don’t know, foot binding. Want to write something? Get a piece of paper and write. That sort of thing.

I realize that I’m suggesting a return to horse and buggy in a time when many or most in the populace cannot conceive of driving a non-weaponized car. You know, talks to you, yells at you, has a big screen that tells you where to go?

I recently suggested taking my 1965 Buick on a three hour drive, and a (female) friend of mine got wide eyed, terror-stricken, just at the lack of an air conditioner . Oh, yeah, in the future, there will be no more air conditioning. Or I should say “it will fall out of general favor.”

The great news is that the larger environment is already transforming in a significant way with just a decade or two of relatively small-scale distribution of simple, inexpensive Orgonite devices in the general vicinity of the weather warfare infrastructure that manly still mistakenly presume only carries cell phone traffic and weather radar data.

I think we’re in the middle of this great transition and many or most aren’t consciously aware of it.

If you haven’t already done so, please consider distributing Orgonite where you live and work today, or sponsoring a gifter, perhaps even through this forum.

May 19, 2016 - U.S. organic sales post new record of $43.3 billion in 2015

Largest dollar gain ever for the booming organic sector even with supply challenges, says OTA survey

The booming U.S. organic industry posted new records in 2015, with total organic product sales hitting a new benchmark of $43.3 billion, up a robust 11 percent from the previous year’s record level and far outstripping the overall food market’s growth rate of 3 percent, according to the Organic Trade Association’s 2016 Organic Industry Survey.

The industry saw its largest annual dollar gain ever in 2015, adding $4.2 billion in sales, up from the $3.9 billion in new sales recorded in 2014. Of the $43.3 billion in total organic sales, $39.7 billion were organic food sales, up 11 percent from the previous year, and non-food organic products accounted for $3.6 billion, up 13 percent. Nearly 5 percent of all the food sold in the U.S. in 2015 was organic.

2015 was a year of significant growth for the industry despite the continued struggle to meet the seemingly unquenchable consumer demand for organic . Supply issues persisted to dominate the industry, as organic production in the U.S. lagged behind consumption. In response, the organic industry came together in creative and proactive ways to address the supply challenge, to improve and develop infrastructure, and to advocate for policy to advance the sector.

Retailers say demand is at its highest for a decade with popularity spreading from fruit and vegetables to other groceries

Demand for organic food is at its highest for more than a decade, according to major retailers.

That’s good news for an industry that was hit hard by the economic downturn but now seems to be returning to rude health as more shoppers say organic food is worth paying the premium for. This week the Soil Association will release its annual report on the state of the organic food market, which is expected to show that it has grown for the fourth consecutive year.

Meanwhile, Tesco says that organic sales in its stores have risen by 15% in the past year . And the home delivery service Ocado, which stocks more than 3,000 organic products, said sales increased 16% last yea r.

Waitrose also said the sector was thriving. “We were the first supermarket to sell organic products in the 1980s and shoppers are as enthusiastic as ever,” a spokeswoman said. “Our latest figures show year-on-year growth of around 5%.”
