  1. Putin the Gangster. But Why Now?

    not quite. those do not nukes and do not cause disturbance near European borders. Because its at this point in time Russia decided to take a side. You see, there are 2 antagonists globally. The west and the arab midlle east. The west wants cheap hydrocarbons and security for Israel. The arabs want the opposite. The antagonism led to regime changes all over the ME, which takes time. By supporting Assad now Russia cast it lot with the ME, thus timing its own reformatting now.

    Well they sure try;) Sheep;) You see its a topsy-turvy world, Wolves in sheep's clothing, Sheep in wolves clothing...its not that simple out there.

    Unfinished sentences... The market is not the society. The market owners want the market to expand. At this juncture it can do so only at the expense of the society. In fact the market is only a tool for pumping the wealth from the society to the owners.
  4. Whatever happened in Cologne never never happened

    Absolutely, but its not only that. The entire pension scarcity scare was a total fabrication aimed at social/ethnic re-engineering.
  5. Interview questions

    There are 2 of them. One is an ancient Chinese art of gaining eternal youth and enlightenment, as a timeless secret for a chosen few. The other one is a modern western fantasy of a health practice, marketed to everybody by youngish charlatans.

    well he deserves that $15.00 for trying.
  7. Hun, Po, Ming, An and Hua Jing

    He might have been that whatever that is. As to why the secrets never leave the family see here http://thedaobums.com/topic/39346-misconceptions-of-qigong-neidan-alchemy/?p=647602 Well you see, first, in traditional paradigm Hun or Po never function alone while a person is alive. "the Hun mind is needed to be trained so it can co-exist with Po mind' is wrong since coexisting is what they do without any training. While neidan does speak about mixing Hun and Po it has a totally diff implication from coexisting. Second, as opposed to a parlor trick with a candle, real fajin looks like this he can not demonstrate that, otherwise he would. Finally, this is vicariously embarrassing I love a tall mystical yarn too, there is nothing wrong with fantasies per se.
  8. Hun, Po, Ming, An and Hua Jing

    Its all pure fantasy of his own invention with some chinese words that he does not understand thrown in.
  9. Light Phenomenon -- advice? ideas?

    The light is an indicator, it shows that the tank is full, thats all. This does not mean that you need to do something the very second the light appears, or wait till it appears again. It means that now you can proceed into the second stage, with the light on or off. However, you are saying that your light is irregular in shape and color, meaning it is not mature. You may want to keep doing what you are doing till the light is a solid block of neon white. As to the next step, this is the key paragraph

    Hmm, feel threatened. When they do that does it mean there was a real danger or they were just stupid to begin with?

    Or maybe an enslavement tool wielded by the hostile elite?
  12. Light Phenomenon -- advice? ideas?

    Sure thing. Alchemy is defined as a union of xing and ming (whatever those are). For them to join they have to be at their fullest state. Further, one has to make xing full first. The first visual light experience is an indication of xing being full. The OP reports the light being "jittery left-hand semi-circle, flashing about 7 times per second in rainbow colors. " This means that xing is not quite mature yet. It first happened to me when after a couple of weeks of dedicated training i walked into a dark room and before i could flip the lights on, i saw a block of white light right before my eyes, i had to shake my head to convince myself in my normalcy;). There were no smartphones back then but if you wanna see the closest thing to this light u may wanna download a flash light app on your smartphone and turn it on in in dark room. The fullness of ming is indicated by a golden light, but this time it is not a visual experience.

    The Hero of Cologne: How a 7ft tall hotel doorman and ex-kickboxing champ saved two women from the New Year's sex mob Hotel doorman Ivan Jurcevic, 44, is being hailed as the 'hero of Cologne' He took on 'sex mob' of men responsible for the New Year's Eve attacks The seven foot tall, 130kg kick boxer has won five world championships Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3395967/The-Hero-Cologne-7ft-tall-hotel-doorman-ex-kickboxing-champ-saved-two-women-New-Year-s-sex-mob.html#ixzz3xDRgXSqf Follow us: @MailOnline on Twitter | DailyMail on Facebook He shifted to the right. Speaking to MailOnline, Mr Jurcevic said: 'There were four of them, young men in their 20s, speaking Arabic. They told me not to interfere, that the girls were "theirs". 'The girls looked like they worked in a bank, they were wearing jeans and coats, nothing provocative, they were really frightened. I told them to stand behind me.' 'Then the loudest member of the gang came at me with a bottle so I kicked him in the chest and sent him flying. Another came at me so I slapped him across the face and he went over as well. 'The leader drew his finger across his throat and told me he would be back to kill me. I stood my ground and they went on their way.' Thats just appalling. How dared he!

    Absolutely. If you are a tourist;). Otherwise its a guiding light.

    No i dont. The minimum wage is effectively a tax on the rich and the middle class, to transfer some of their cash to the working poor. The bet is that by stimulating consumption by the poor it will lift all boats. I think it will work.
  17. Whatever happened in Cologne never never happened

    A number of reasons: First, he starts with uncertainty and jumps to certainty: Might=is=fuzzy Second, he is concerned with disadvantages to the blacks at the exclusion of considerations for the society as a whole He does not attempt to refute this argument. Third, if the absence of minimum rate will improve the employment of blacks, then it will lead to the replacement of whites with blacks. Would not that be racist towards the whites? He leaves that consideration out. Fourth, his examples of racism by minimum wage are inapplicable: If cheap labor is brought into a US state from another US state, the former state has a right to protect its citizens. Although the said labor happens to be black, there is nothing racist about that. And finally he concludes with this epitome of fuzziness: "discrimination against employment of low-skilled labor "? What is that? Is it a bad thing? " effects of minimum wages: .... lowering of the cost of racial discrimination." Minimum wages lower the cost of racial discrimination? What's a 'cost of racial discrimination'? Is it a good thing? In one word: fuzzy.

    hehe) i see you are quoting Wiliams. https://www.lewrockwell.com/2016/01/walter-e-williams/bunch-liars-minimum-wage/ i am actually a fan of his, but he is a fuzzy thinker on this one. The Senate Budget Committee’s blog says, “Top Economists Are Backing Sen. Bernie Sanders on Establishing a $15 an Hour Minimum Wage.” It lists the names of 210 economists who call for increasing the federal minimum wage. The petition starts off, “We, the undersigned professional economists, favor an increase in the federal minimum wage to $15 an hour as of 2020.” The petition ends with this: “In short, raising the federal minimum to $15 an hour by 2020 will be an effective means of improving living standards for low-wage workers and their families and will help stabilize the economy. The costs to other groups in society will be modest and readily absorbed.”
  19. Whatever happened in Cologne never never happened

    I donno. To me its obvious that demographics is the key. 2 or 3 centuries of prosperous white rule have distorted the demographics: the prosperity made whites to stop procreating while th same prosperity created a black urban boom. As an inevitable consequence he former were overran by the latter. Simple.
  20. Whatever happened in Cologne never never happened

    Then the minimum wage has nothing to do with the employer's choice. /Black, low skilled and youth / has nothing to do with minimum wage. An employer who does not like such employees would not hire them at any wage. Sorry, Karl. Does not compute.
  21. Whatever happened in Cologne never never happened

    A minimum rate is color-blind. This does not make sense.
