CARL JUNG’S RED BOOK
‘…16 years of the psychoanalyst’s dive into his own unconscious mind, a challenge to what he considered Sigmund Frued’s–his former mentor’s–isolated world view. Far from a simple narrative, The Red Book is Jung’s voyage of discovery into his deepest self.

“The voyage began at age 11. “On my way to school,” Jung recalled in 1959, “I stepped out of a mist and I knew I am. I am what I am. And then I thought, ‘But what have I been before?’ And then I found that I had been in a mist, not knowing to differentiate myself from things; I was just one thing among many things.” ” READ MORE HERE

WATER ON THE MOON?
Water had already been found on the moon but the NASA scientists had hoped they could find significant deposits in the permanently shadowed regions of craters, in this case, a crater called Cabeus.

If this water is billions of years old, it could contain information about the formation of the solar system. And if it is widespread, it could be used to… READ THE REST HERE

AWESOME PHOTOS
I love black and white photgraphy because it can be so dramatic and call forth a deeper sense of the Mystery. Each shot in this set is worth a good long pause and careful regard–each one is almost epic in nature. The lone lioness atop a rock formation with the enormous swath of empty plains behind her, a thunderstorm crossing the distant mountains…the tremendous dust and morning mists accompanying a huge herd of buffalo crossing a river…and way more–are a weekend’s worth of gazing in themselves.

ICEBERGS ON THEIR WAY!
In the past day or so at least four icebergs have been spotted off the east and west coasts of the island, ranging in size from 50 metres up to an estimated 2km in length. Like Southern New Zealand isn’t cold enough! READ MORE HERE

CANADA HALTING FLU VACCINE
I love this–at last, people are getting smart! This study suggests that people vaccinated against seasonal flu are actually twice as likely to catch swine flu.

But plans vary across the provinces of Canada. Last month, British Columbia announced it is suspending seasonal flu shots for anyone under 65 years old, joining Quebec, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Ontario and Nova Scotia in halting the immunizations. READ THE WHOLE THING HERE

IS YOUR CELL PHONE REALLY KILLING YOU?
By Camilla Rees, Founder of www.Electromagnetichealth.org

Just prior to the recent Senate hearings on cell phone safety, Chaired by Senator Tom Harkin, the Environmental Working Group (EWG) released a new database for consumers ranking over 1,000 cell phones by the Specific Absorption Rate, known as the SAR value. The SAR value is a measure of the power of the cell phone and its potential for heating tissues.

The SAR value has been available for some time through the FCC’s own databases but has never before been made available in one central, easily accessible source in the United States. Nor is the SAR value listed on box packaging of cell phones at the point of sale for comparison purposes.

All that has changed….READ MORE HERE

Mercola adds:
Many, many biological effects occur at non-heating levels of exposure, including leakage in the Blood Brain Barrier and neuron death at only 0.012 W/kg (compared to the FCC exposure limit for this form of radiation of1.6 W/kg). The blood brain barrier leakage has been shown to continue as long as 50 days after exposure.

THE EARTH TAKES OVER
Global warming has been blamed for the alarming loss of ice shelves in Antarctica, but a new study says newly-exposed areas of sea are now soaking up some of the carbon gas that causes the problem. READ THE REST HERE

BABIES CRY IN MOTHER TONGUE
Just days after birth, German and French infants’ wails mimicked the patterns of their native languages. Researchers believe they started to pick up on the melodies in the third trimester.
By Karen Kaplan

They may not be old enough to talk, but babies less than a week old know how to cry in their native language. READ MORE HERE

DON’T DRINK PROCESSED OJ
Dr. Mercola
Many popular orange juice brands have to be chemically altered using ethyl butyrate — a compound that’s added to perfume as well as orange juice — in order to make it taste and smell like oranges!

Further, many commercial orange juices are contaminated with mold from damaged fruit that is processed. So if you drink commercial orange juice regularly you will be exposed to these mold toxins. You know you are buying a heavily processed juice if….READ THE REST HERE

bees-ANGRECNO HONEYBEES, NO FOOD!
Dr. Mercola
Recent experiments have found that worker bees fail to return to their hives when their navigation skills are interfered by the mobile microwaves. Cell phones were placed near beehives. These hives collapsed totally in 5 to 10 days, with the worker bees failing to return to their homes.

A full one-third of the U.S. food supply depends on pollination from bees. Apple orchards, for instance, require one colony of bees per acre to be adequately pollinated. The California almond crop alone requires 1.3 million colonies of bees, and bees actually add an estimated $15 billion in value to crops like these.

So if bee colonies continue to be wiped out in unprecedented numbers, major food shortages could result, adding to the current food crisis.

In an average year, beekeepers expect to incur losses of between 5 and 10 percent. But in 2007, U.S. beekeepers surveyed by the USDA Agricultural Research Service reported a total loss of about 36 percent of their bee colonies, up from 13.5 percent the year before. MORE HERE

WHERE DID THE NAME FRISBEE COME FROM?
A new book called Anonyponymous: The Forgotten People Behind Everyday Words, written by John Bemelmans Marciano.

Some of the people who donated their names to history did it by accident.
“There was a woman named Mary Frisbie who made pies in Connecticut,” Marciano tells Renee Montagne. “Students would throw around her pie plates after they had finished her pies, and kind of like you would say, ‘Incoming!’ they would say, ‘Frisbie!’ just to give people the heads-up that there was something spinning and flying coming at their head.”

Etienne de Silhouette was a French finance minister whose taxes “turned people into a shadow of themselves.” Luigi Galvani was an Italian physicist who discovered that muscles can be forced to move when administered an electric shock. Jules Leotard was a French acrobat who invented the skintight one-piece athletic outfit. READ MORE HERE
