James was 4 years old, sitting on his dad’s lap, when he said something no child should be able to say.

His father had just hugged him. “You are such a good son.” And the boy looked up and answered: “That’s why I picked you. I knew you would be good parents.”

Cute thing for a kid to say. So his dad played along and asked where he found them.

“A big pink hotel in Hawaii.”
“What were we doing when you picked us?”
“You were having dinner on the beach at night.”

His father went pale. Five years earlier, before James was even conceived, he and his wife had celebrated their wedding anniversary at the Royal Hawaiian, a coral pink hotel in Honolulu. They had dinner on the beach. At night. They had never once spoken about that trip in front of James.

And that was just the beginning.

Because at 2 years old, James had started waking up screaming the same words: “Airplane crash, on fire. Little man can’t get out.” He told his parents he had been an American pilot, that his plane was shot down by the Japanese.

Then the details got specific. He named the carrier he flew from: the USS Natoma Bay. He named a fellow pilot on the ship: Jack Larson. He named the man who died: James McCready Huston Jr.

His father, a skeptic by nature, started digging to prove it wasn’t real. Every name checked out. James M. Huston Jr. was a real World War II pilot who really flew from the Natoma Bay, was really shot down by the Japanese, and really died.

Then James repeated a private nickname Huston had used only for his sister. Huston’s surviving family confirmed it.

These weren’t a toddler’s bad dreams...

獣医の世界では半世紀前から常識だ。脊髄を損傷し、四肢が完全に麻痺した犬や馬にDMSOを点滴すると、彼らは再び立ち上がり歩き出す。ところが、同じ怪我を負った人間には「もう手の施しようがありません」と宣告される。この埋めがたい落差こそが、今回掘り起こす「忘れられた医療」の核心だ。

DMSOは、細胞の骨格とも言える「微小管」の再構築を劇的に促進する。神経細胞はこの骨格が壊れると再生できないが、DMSOはその組み立てに必要なタンパク質濃度を10分の1近くまで下げ、傷ついた神経回路の再接続を後押しする。さらに幹細胞を神経細胞へと分化させる作用も持ち、失われた組織そのものを補う可能性を秘めている。

1970年代、スタンリー・ジェイコブ博士らは、脊髄損傷から数時間以内にDMSOを点滴された患者が歩行を取り戻した事例を報告した。うち一人は受傷から9時間後という「手遅れ」のタイミングだったにもかかわらず、である。

慢性の腰痛や坐骨神経痛、椎間板ヘルニアに対しても、DMSOの効能は軽視できない。ロシアでの偽薬対照試験では、DMSOゲルを1日2回塗った患者群の痛みの指標が10点満点中7.46点から2.58点へと大幅に改善し、筋肉の緊張や脊椎の可動域でも偽薬群を明らかに上回った。

私のもとには、何十年も背部痛に苦しみ、複数の手術にも失敗した読者から「DMSOで人生が変わった」という声が数百件寄せられている。ある男性は、12.5mmも飛び出していた椎間板が数ヶ月の塗布で3〜4mmに縮小し、メスを入れずに済んだという。

話はここで終わらない。本当に問うべきは、獣医が当たり前に使う治療法を、なぜ人間の医療だけが無視し続けるのか、という構造的な問題だ。

答えの一端は、DMSOが安価で特許を取れない物質である点に潜む。莫大な利益を生む新薬の市場を侵食する可能性があるため、大規模な人間での臨床試験には莫大な資金が必要なのに、誰もその費用を出そうとしないのだ。FDA（米国食品医薬品局）による規制の壁も厚く、動物では「奇跡的」とされる回復のデータが積み上がっても、人間への応用は半世紀近く棚上げされたままだ。

飼い主にとって家族同然の犬が交通事故で麻痺した時、獣医は迷わずDMSOの点滴を選ぶ。その事実を知りながら、自分の親が転倒して脊髄を損傷した場合に同じ選択肢を与えられないとしたら、それは科学の問題ではなく、もはや医療制度の倫理的な不作為と言わざるを得ない。

JERSEY JAILED THE MAN WHO TRIED TO SAVE ITS CHILDREN

Stuart Syvret @StuartSyvret was Jersey's Health Minister. In 2007 he started asking uncomfortable questions about what was happening to children in the island's care homes. He said he was sacked for whistleblowing. Jersey said he was sacked for his behaviour.

That's the kind of framing you get when the institution decides the story.

Syvret had been collecting his own evidence since 2006. In May 2008 he made a formal complaint to police claiming senior civil servants had perverted the course of justice by covering up abuse in care homes.

So what happened to him? His house was raided. His computers and papers were taken. He was hit with a superinjunction, a secret gag order that was later exposed by UK Parliament, and imprisoned three times in connection with his efforts to expose what he described as horrific crimes across the island.

The Independent Jersey Care Inquiry eventually confirmed that children in care on the island endured 553 offences between 1947 and 2004. Most occurred at the notorious Haut de la Garenne children's home. The inquiry concluded that survivors were left with devastating and life-long consequences.

A constant theme in the inquiry report was the "Jersey Way" - a culture of ignoring and downplaying uncomfortable issues, which allowed abuse to continue without full investigation.

One UK judge called Syvret "a thorn in the side of the Jersey establishment." A Liberal Democrat MP accused Jersey's judiciary of misusing the Data Protection Act to silence critics.

Syvret eventually left Jersey fearing for his life, having received death threats for years. He ended up in an undisclosed location in the United States.

His conclusion, years later: the obstructions to the original police investigation were "astonishing." And those who blew the whistle paid the price while the system stayed intact.

Think about that. The man who raised the alarm about child abuse on a British Crown Dependency got jailed, gagged, and exiled.

If this case matters to you, share it. These children deserved better than this.

Please sign this petition to end the addition of the synthetic drug folic acid to our flour.

It's being added with the claim it might prevent ~200 neural tube defects.

The trial that claim is based on resulted in 9 dead babies per 'saved' child.

Frida Kahlo à son mari Diego :

"Je ne te demande pas de m’embrasser,
je ne te demande pas de t’excuser quand je pense que tu as eu tort,
je ne te demanderai même pas de me prendre dans tes bras quand j’en ai le plus besoin.
Je ne te demande pas de me dire que je suis belle, même si ce n’est pas vrai,
ni de m’écrire quoi que ce soit de tendre.
Je ne te demanderai même pas de m’appeler
pour me raconter ta journée,
ni de me dire que je te manque.
Je ne te demanderai pas de me remercier pour tout ce que je fais pour toi,
ni de t’inquiéter pour moi quand mon moral est au plus bas.
Et bien sûr, je ne te demanderai pas de soutenir mes choix,
ni même de m’écouter quand j’ai mille histoires à te raconter.
Je ne te demanderai rien.
Pas même d’être à mes côtés pour toujours.
Parce que si je dois te le demander… alors je n’en veux plus".

A magnificent post, about a culture advanced in the art of self control, though it may go deeper than frosty influences, because there are monastic communities in warmer climes who practise similar principles.

[Ankor Inclán @ankorinclan]

En el verano de 1963, una estudiante de doctorado de Harvard llegó en avión a Chantrey Inlet, en los Territorios del Noroeste de Canadá, para estudiar a los chamanes de los Utku, un pequeño grupo inuit que vivía en la desembocadura del río Back. Cuando el avión despegó y desapareció, descubrió que los Utku ya no practicaban el chamanismo.

Jean Briggs se quedó de todas formas.

Durante diecisiete meses vivió como hija adoptiva de la familia Utku, compartiendo el iglú en invierno y la tienda en verano, sin calefacción moderna, sin carreteras, con temperaturas que bajaban de los cuarenta grados bajo cero. Y lo que observó en ese tiempo cambiaría la forma en que la psicología y la antropología entienden las emociones humanas.

Los adultos Utku casi nunca mostraban ira.

No era represión. Era algo más elaborado. Briggs documentó que la ira se consideraba entre los Utku una señal de inmadurez, algo que pertenecía a los niños pequeños y a los animales, no a los adultos. El autocontrol emocional era, en esa cultura, la marca de una persona desarrollada. La palabra que usaban para describir a alguien con ese control era ihuma, que podría traducirse como razón, mente, o conciencia.

Lo que resultó más revelador fue cómo transmitían eso a sus hijos.

No con castigos. No con sermones. A través del juego, la dramatización y la enseñanza indirecta. Briggs documentó escenas donde las madres provocaban deliberadamente las emociones de sus hijos pequeños para después mostrarles, con calma, las consecuencias de esas emociones sobre los demás. Una madre golpeaba suavemente a su hijo, el hijo respondía, y la madre fingía dolor. No como castigo, sino como espejo.

Hay un detalle que el texto original ignoraba y que hace la historia aún más rica: la propia Briggs reconoció en su libro que ella misma tenía dificultades para controlar sus emociones. Un día, en un momento de frustración, respondió de forma cortante a un miembro de la familia. La reacción de los Utku fue tratarla con la misma gentileza y preocupación con que trataban a un niño que todavía estaba aprendiendo.

Esa experiencia personal se convirtió en el núcleo del libro.

Never in Anger: Portrait of an Eskimo Family se publicó en 1970 por Harvard University Press y se convirtió en una obra de referencia en etnografía y antropología psicológica. Briggs siguió trabajando con comunidades inuit hasta el final de su vida. Murió el 27 de julio de 2016 en Nueva Hampshire, a los 87 años.

Lo que documentó no era una técnica de crianza. Era una filosofía entera sobre qué significa ser adulto: alguien que ha aprendido que las emociones existen, que pueden ser intensas, y que responder con calma no es negarlas, sino dominarlas.

EARTH’S FREQUENCY LOOKS UNHINGED TODAY⚡️

Yesterday’s disturbance didn’t disappear.

It stayed.

Hour after hour, Earth’s frequency field continued showing signs of intense activity as the Schumann Resonance remained lit up through much of the day.

What stands out isn’t a single spike.

It’s how long the disturbance managed to hold its ground.

Nearly 24 hours later, the field was still showing signs of unusual activity.

Meanwhile, reports continue pouring in of:

• unusually loud ringing in the ears
• restless sleep
• vivid dreams
• pressure headaches
• unusual fatigue
• waking up feeling different than normal

Whether connected or not…

a lot of people seem to be noticing the same things at the same time.

Anyone else noticing anything unusual today?

If you’re in Kinsale today, come along to the launch of this amazing book “Well Being” by Charlotte Emily Rose. It’s an astonishing work about uncovering and activating ancient wells in Eire which is already affecting consciousness across the whole planet.

I’ve spent 4 days filming Charlottes adventures which I will release as a video on YouTube soon. It’s an extraordinary story that will inspire many to look deeper into the significance of water, the source of all life on Earth.
