Alan Abbadessa – Synchromysticism & The Sync Book
via: Red Ice Radio
October 23, 2011
Writer and animator Alan Abbadessa-Green said when he tried to tell his mom about conspiracies, she looked at him like he was crazy. When he tried to tell her about synchronicity, she looked at him like he was crazy for not seeing it sooner. Alan just finished editing a book called, The Sync Book. It features a compilation of 26 bloggers, writers and artists who share their experiences and perspectives on the strange universe in which we live, focusing mostly from the viewpoint of synchromysticism. In this interview, we’ll explore themes from the book and talk about things such as symbolism, our entangled universe, messages from beyond, cosmic consciousness and piercing the veil. Are we pawns in a grander scheme designed by the universe or are we ourselves taking part in creation? Alan also discusses the difference between predictive programming and magic and popular consciousness as a self fulfilling prophecy.
BPA Leads to Fertility Defect in Offspring

Bishphenol a (BPA), the headline-topping chemical commonly found in plastics, cans, and food packaging has been tied to yet another negative condition — adversely affecting male genital development and subsequently targeting fertility rates.
If you have been following the latest BPA research, then it should be no surprise to you that BPA has been repeatedly linked to diabetes, breast cancer (with over 130 total studies), hyperactivity and depression, and countless other conditions.
BPA alters Anogenital distance, heavily tied to fertility in men
The study, which involved the World Health Organization Collaborating Center for Research in Human Reproduction, examined the effect of BPA on Anogenital distance (AGD).
AGD is the distance between the genitalia and the anus, and is biologically very important. AGD has been linked to fertility in males, making the affect of BPA on the male reproductive system quite significant.
Linked to both semen volume and sperm count, men with an abnormally short AGD (lower than the median around 52 mm (2 in) have seven times the chance of being sub-fertile as compared to those with a longer AGD.
This is particularly startling due to the fact that BPA has been found in 90% of babies’ cord blood.
Researchers examined 153 boys, 56 with parental occupational exposure during pregnancy and 97 without. After factoring in the weight and age of the boys using regular linear regression, the study found that parental occupational exposure to BPA during pregnancy was associated with shortened AGD in male offspring. What this means is that those who were exposed to high levels of BPA during pregnancy were found to birth offspring with AGD defects. But what about those who do not deal with BPA exposure through their occupation?
Outside of directly working with BPA-containing items, there are many other venues of BPA exposure that could be affecting your health:
- 95% of paper money contains BPA
- 18 out of 20 of the most popular food cans are laced with BPA
- Dental fillings and sealants
- Many canned products specifically marketed to children
- B Vitamins During Pregnancy & Nursing Protect Against Colon Cancer in Offspring
- The BPA Solution | How to Naturally Reverse the Effects
- Popular Plastic Chemical BPA Linked to Wheezing in Children
- This Common Chemical Linked to Allergies and Asthma
- Toxic Hormone-Mimicking BPA Now Linked to Diabetes

Assad: challenge Syria at your peril
Syria’s president, Bashar al-Assad, has warned that Western action against his country would cause an “earthquake” that would “burn the whole region”.

In his first interview with a Western journalist since Syria‘s
seven-month uprising began, President Assad told The Sunday Telegraph that intervention against his regime could cause “another Afghanistan”.
Western countries “are going to ratchet up the pressure, definitely,” he said. “But Syria is different in every respect from Egypt, Tunisia, Yemen. The history is different. The politics is different.
“Syria is the hub now in this region. It is the fault line, and if you play with the ground you will cause an earthquake … Do you want to see another Afghanistan, or tens of Afghanistans?
“Any problem in Syria will burn the whole region. If the plan is to divide Syria, that is to divide the whole region.”
Thousands of anti-government demonstrators took to the streets in two Syrian cities on Friday to demand the imposition of a Libyan-style no-fly zone over the country. According to the United Nations, at least 3,000 civilians, including 187 children, have been killed during protests against the regime.
Thousands more have been imprisoned. The government says 1,200 members of the security forces have also died.
Cellphone Towers EMR Damaging Biological Systems of Birds, Insects, Humans

The electromagnetic radiation (EMR) emitted from mobile towers is so powerful that it affects the biological systems of birds, insects, and even humans. The study, released by the environment ministry, called for the protection of flora and fauna by law.
‘The review of existing literature shows that the EMRs are interfering with the biological systems in more ways than one and there had already been some warning bells sounded in the case on bees and birds, which probably heralds the seriousness of this issue and indicates the vulnerability of other species as well,’ the study found.
In September of 2010, the ministry established a 10-member committee under Bombay Natural History Society (BNHS) with director Asad Rahmani to study the impact of cellphone towers on birds and bees. The group of experts reviewed 919 studies performed in India and abroad regarding the effects of cellphone towers on birds, insects, animals, wildlife, and humans.
Syrians rally in support of Assad

More than one million Syrians have rallied in the capital, Damascus, in support of President Bashar al-Assad and his reform program.
Waving Syrian flags and pictures of Assad, hundreds of thousands of government supporters converged in a main square in the capital on Wednesday to show the level of support that the Syrian president enjoys.
”The army and people with you, Bashar al-Assad” and “Syria is our country and Assad our president,” read some banners held by demonstrators.
Demonstrators also condemned foreign interference in their county’s internal affairs and called for national unity.

The One Percent: Gigantic Government + Gigantic Corporations = Massive Wealth Inequality In America
The Economic Collapse
October 26, 2011
Today, there are protests all over America that are targeting “the one percent” and all of the wealth and power that they have accumulated. Unfortunately, many of the solutions that these protesters are advocating simply will not work and will not lead to less wealth inequality. To understand this, you have to understand how we got to this point. Over the past several decades, our federal government has exploded in size and our large corporations have exploded in size. In fact, we have seen this pattern happen pretty much all over the world. Governments and corporations all over the globe are getting much bigger. Whenever you have very, very large concentrations of money and power like that, it is going to lead to massive wealth inequality. The Occupy Wall Street protesters would like to frame this debate as “socialism vs. capitalism”, but the truth is that wherever you find big government you will almost always find big corporations, and wherever you find big corporations you will almost always find big government. Sure, they spar once in a while, but the reality is that big government and big corporations work in tandem most of the time. Sometimes big government has the upper hand and sometimes big corporations have the upper hand, but they are both collectivist institutions. Wherever you find collectivism in the world, you will find an elite that receives most of the benefits while the rest of the population suffers. In the United States today, our gigantic government is thriving and our gigantic corporations are thriving and the middle class is rapidly shrinking. The solution to this is not to replace one form of collectivism with another form of collectivism. Rather, what we need is to go back to what our founding fathers intended. They were extremely suspicious of large concentrations of wealth and power, and they intended for us to live in a capitalist system where individuals and small businesses had the freedom to compete and thrive.
Canada Declares BPA Toxic. Is the U.S. Next?

Bryan Walsh writing for the Ecocentric Blog at Time Magazine:
It’s used almost everywhere. It’s in almost all of us. It does weird things to rodents and it may be doing weird things to us—but it’s tough to be certain. Bisphenol-A (BPA) has become a litmus test for how people view environmental health and the risks of common household chemicals—as I wrote in a long story for TIME earlier this year. The chemical has countless industrial uses, most often in the epoxy liner of cans and in plastic bottles. But BPA is also an endocrine disruptor, meaning that it has the capacity to mess with our hormones and potentially impact health—especially in developing fetuses—even at relatively low doses. (Because they can mimic hormones—which cause enormous changes in our bodies even at relatively low amounts—the dose-response relationship used to evaluate traditional toxins like lead may not work with BPA.)
