“Hearing the news of Forbie’s passing was, to me, deeply saddening. Even at the age of 90, it seemed like a shock to have Forbie pass away. He was active, he was everywhere, he was larger than life.”

The best exercise for the brain you’ve probably never seen.
According to Michael J. Lavery’s book “Whole Brain Power”, using a 4-pound sledge hammer to bounce a golf ball up and down dramatically amplifies both your neurological and physical demands
Massive Central Nervous System (CNS) Activation
The sheer weight of a 4-lb sledge forces the CNS to fire at a much higher intensity.
To keep a lively golf ball bouncing on a heavy, rigid piece of steel, your brain has to send incredibly powerful, rapid-fire signals to your muscles.
This level of resistance forces maximum motor unit recruitment, teaching your nervous system to fire more efficiently under tension.
Elite Grip and Forearm Strength
Lavery heavily emphasizes the link between hand/grip strength and brain health, viewing the hands as the direct external extension of the central nervous system.
Bouncing a ball requires a loose, reactive wrist to absorb and redirect impact, but holding a 4-lb hammer requires immense isometric grip strength.
Managing that weight leverages extreme stress onto the forearms, wrists, and fingers, building dense, functional grip strength that standard lifting rarely touches.
Accelerated Neuroplasticity via Forced Focus
With a light hammer, you can cheat the movement or rely on casual reflexes.
With a 4-lb sledge, there is zero room for error.
The high penalty for a missed bounce (the heavy hammer dropping or completely throwing off your rhythm) forces the brain into a state of hyper-vigilance and deep cognitive focus.
This intense concentration triggers a higher release of acetylcholine and dopamine, the exact neurotransmitters required to stimulate neuroplasticity and forge new neural pathways.
Overcoming Hemispheric Dominance (Ambidexterity)
When you transition the 4-lb sledge to your non-dominant hand, the challenge scales exponentially.
Because the non-dominant hemisphere of your brain isn't used to managing that much weight combined with fine motor precision, the drill forces rapid communication across the corpus callosum (the bridge connecting the left and right sides of the brain).
It quickly exposes and corrects deep-seated muscular and neurological imbalances between your two sides.
Cortical Mapping and Joint Stability
Holding a heavy weight at the end of a lever arm requires all the stabilizing micro-muscles in your wrist, elbow, and shoulder rotator cuff to fire simultaneously.
This builds incredible joint integrity while expanding your brain’s "cortical map"—its internal blueprint of where your body is in space (proprioception).
Benefits:
- Maximum Central Nervous System Recruitment
- Dense Grip and Forearm Strength
- Forced Cognitive Focus & Neuroplasticity
- Rapid Dual-Hemisphere Brain Activation
- Enhanced Proprioception & Joint Integrity
- Growth Hormone (GH) and Testosterone
- “ Fountain of Youth" Endorphins
- Dopamine and Acetylcholine
- Insulin Sensitivity and Blood Sugar Regulation
Carney’s daughter Sasha wrote that she had her breasts removed at Yale.
Last year her father vowed to keep federal funding for puberty blockers and transgender surgeries.
Puberty blockers are given to girls in early puberty (ages 8–13).
.@drphil asked me whether I feel worried about releasing my new book “Killed to Order” after 20 years of research.
The truth is I have spent decades studying the Chinese Communist Party, and I am very aware of what it is capable of and how it treats people it sees as threats.
I do understand there are risks involved in speaking out.
But I also cannot ignore what this research has revealed about the treatment of prisoners of conscience and this broader murder-for-organs industry that has been documented over many years.
There are people who have dedicated their lives to uncovering what is happening and this book brings together that work in one place.
I feel a responsibility to make this information accessible even if it comes with personal risk.

COMPLETE OBLITERATION
Media INSULTED Pierre Poilievre eduction.
They got DESTROYED with FACTS that make Mark Carneys Harvard eduction look like he went to Kindergarten Class.
MSM Learned TODAY
Watch Mark Carney raise his finger to silence a reporter.
Asked about serious concerns over immigration system integrity and investigations.
“Are you doing anything to fix this?”
In 1998, Warren Buffett explained how to never lose money. MUST BOOKMARK🔖
The lecture was 1 hour 24 minutes long.
The company built on those ideas is now worth $1 trillion.
This is the closest thing to a cheat code that exists.
I'm sharing my latest viral find with you - watch even 5 minutes and your trading mindset will shift forever.
Share it. You'll thank yourself later.
Charlie Munger’s 1998 Harvard speech is the ultimate cheat code for life.
He compressed 74 years of billionaire wisdom into just 30 minutes.
Most people spend 4 years in college and learn less than what’s in this video.

I will share my prepared comment here: “I have reported for The Bureau a story based on a tape recording provided to me by a courageous Canadian from mainland China. This person shared a recording in which Senator Yuen Pau Woo was speaking to a group that included Premier David Eby’s community outreach advisor, David Ding, also known as Ding Guo. (https://t.co/LxBbOBtT7a)
The Canadian from China indicated to me that the discussion should be of interest to CSIS and myself, as a leading investigative journalist on China United Front networks. I reviewed the tape and also shared it with sinologist and former Canadian diplomat Charles Burton. I asked Dr. Burton whether Senator Woo’s comments to this group led by Ding Guo caused concern, because Woo evidently promised to provide overt support to members of United Front Work groups in Canada. The comments were obviously concerning in my view, given that the United Front is a concern to CSIS and the CIA as an entity of China’s covert interference and diaspora repression in North America.
I also asked Dr. Burton whether Woo’s comments should call into question his standing at the Hogue Commission, where he purported to be a voice against anti-Asian sentiment. Dr. Burton agreed, commenting:
“Senator Woo's briefing to Canada Committee 100 Society effectively enables the legitimacy of agencies of the Chinese Communist Party in our country,” Burton said. “This does call into question Senator Woo's intervener status in the Inquiry.”
So yes, I do see Sen. Woo’s new purported community group as an extension of his support for Beijing’s United Front system in Canada, and that goes for Victor Oh as well. And I think both of these men should be of concern to the U.S. government, which is asking Ottawa to cooperate to counteract the coercive acts of the CCP in North America."

New report + today’s briefing to the Canadian Parliament by China Studies Fellow @CherylYuuu: Jamestown mapped how 2,000+ CCP linked united front organizations are operating in democratic states, shaping domestic politics and subverting Western democracies.

WASHINGTON/OTTAWA – A groundbreaking study has mapped 2,294 organizations with proven links to the Chinese Communist Party's "united front" influence apparatus across the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Germany—with Canada exhibiting nearly five times the per-capita penetration rate of the U.S. and the highest density of CCP-linked organizations among all four democracies.
For those unaware.
This was a meeting of basically all the media producers in Canada.
It was held Jan 29 in Ottawa.
Mark Carney was the keynote speaker.
They pledged their loyalty and protection to Carney.
I've never seen anything so corrupt covering the media in over 20 years.
