History has seen waves of protests contribute to ending the Vietnam War. How would you, if necessary, to keep events the streets in cities like New York, London and Paris?

Later, young people should go out and then give up street demonstrations in appearance only. The West has not seen such waves of protests since the 1960s.

Curious?

Lysergic acid, a hallucinogen, were extracted Sandoz Laboratories in Switzerland in 1938 by experimenting with a fungus that affects rye, food grains.

Sandoz entered Production of LSD in Switzerland in 1947, shortly after World War 2. The pharmaceutical manufacturer was owned by SG Warburg, a financial firm linked the U.S. Federal Reserve founder Paul Warburg ("Warburg" was an alias by the Venetian merchant family of Abraham del Banco noted.)

When large batch production of psychotropic drugs began, far in the United States Paul Warburg, an intelligence received from high-level directions to begin research on the effects of LSD on people. The program, code-named MK-ULTRA, was released two decades later in a report to Congress.

However, the effects have long been known to the experimenters. A quantity as small as the weight of 1 / 10 of a grain of sand produces hallucination.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has LSD on a list of restricted drugs. At the same time influential think-tank men like Aldous Huxley were advocating the use of LSD. Their strange voices prevailed.

ATF – a contrast

Troopers of the ATF (Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives) was signed in to address the Davidians celebrated by the Attorney General of President Bill Clinton, Janet Reno and classmate.

Soldiers cast ATF incendiary gas canisters into the building wood the Branch Davidians. The little-known group is said to have been broken by U.S. intelligence Assemblies of God (the group was one of many used as a common driver for behavioral studies by the agency.) incendiary gas, Janet Reno, has triggered an inferno and more lips sealing "David khoresht" all adults and children in the building of Texas died as well. Other control groups such that all the subjects had died of Peoples Temple and Heaven's Gate (Paul Wilshire and several sources on the Internet suggests khoresht David was one of the lures which the intelligence agency used to bifurcate the group)

Recovery ..

Now if you look at the Net, you Note that a "mysterious other troopers kept the FDA away from rock concerts for young people when men were distribution contract packages of LSD (The Woodstock festival came in August 1969). This included the distribution of the Beatles in concert.

A developer who found the Beatles future independence, Brian Epstein (He ran a record store) was converted into a paid manager of EMI (or electrical and mechanical instruments, an axial British defense contractor). The musicians were then given the name "The Beatles", a pun replace their commercial origin, trivial name "Quarrymen".

Artists playing by ear was to reproduce music Rock 'n Roll imported from the United States (where he had evolved from Black America Boogie-Woogie). For artists, poets, and the shadow-wrote such songs as "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" ("LSD"). Musicologist drew on classical music (for example, Tchaikovsky, Borodin) and EMI helped with the issue of funding Parlaphone record label and finally the reception of new material broadcast times. This combination suddenly pushed British and American national hearings rising from three-chord music.

Irish rebel John Lennon was not appeased with the fame and fortune happened (to a command performance for the queen, he asked those jewels to rattle.) A sense of fair play was next to the West to Asia.

EMI manager Epstein was withdrawn by his death in his apartment in London at the age of 32 and the Beatles were broken. Lennon then crucifixion. Bullet holes entered his left side according to the autopsy report today on the net and were fired from a service door (Alleged plot-writer Robert Rosen and the "New York Times asserted in 1980 that" aggressors "Chapman shot Lennon straight.)

New Stuff – unlimited 'I'

In the aftermath of the artificial stall subculture, two questions were raised:

(1) The South remained heavy division. Developing nations that elites guarding suspected North out manufacturing in the South with an argument that would be small-scale industries employ more people. At the same time, India, China and East Asia Eastern Tiger economies were seen the development of modern manufacturing. And anti-industrialization fable began to falter. University consciousness – in both South and North – have seen through the scheme "Small is Beautiful" (such as Western protectionist EF Schumacher and Dudley Seers.)

(2) After the peak of protest rallies of the 1960s, the drug culture newly induced seen young people not only drop out rallies and take the hippie lifestyle. Some have chosen to become yuppies (young ascension of young people.) They took the office should give them a BMW, if they sang along. So in both modes, yuppie and hippie, a true commitment to social institutions and the company began to fade. Anglo-American innovation tapered off. Yet, how do you still control the world?

A new story was necessary to keep control levers with dynastial bold and beautiful from the world.

The new substance has been administered "free to choose." The fable was injected into the media by Nobel laureate Milton Friedman in 1976.

Its result, a cult of Unlimited "I", was precipitated in distant countries of the West such as Sri Lanka. News agencies in the West (eg Reuters) and television (CNN) would outmuscle journalists local television news presenters. Later, the IMF / World Bank anchored the unlimited "I" using "reforms" who dismantled or put to sleep Central Bank and other controls.

From Sri Lanka to the United States, Limitless "I" was transform (logically) unlimited "Obligation" for millions of households. Behind the pace suited Industry advertising ("your right to choose"), it was the work of Milton Friedman to ensure that the financial fat cats win. He compiled part of this program in 1964 for Barry Goldwater, Las Vegas casino mafia assets, to enter the skin of the slain President Kennedy.

After that President Reagan entered the White House with Milton Friedman won the position at the end of 1976 to advise the economy to counter the advisor Kennedy JK Galbraith. Private financial obtained their free meals, you and I – Obligations unlimited. Then, the Anglo-American banks – the big cats tested – Hiding the private gains, banks, knowing they could certainly ask the taxpayer for capital missing.

Now – During the astronaut

Astronaut Leonov was on the list of five people abroad that Arthur C Clarke called when Sri Lanka has decided to celebrate the 90th anniversary Clarke. A stranger of the Nobel Committee, Clarke has created the concepts of artificial satellite in Earth orbit and the Internet that help the everyday world.

Sri Lanka Foreign Ministry had chosen me, your narrator, to serve as a translator astronaut Leonov. The three days that I used helped me to learn from the experience of the person who now heads the Russian Space Academy. Our relation-ship accident leads to trust a lot, talk openly with me. When I finally saw him off at the airport, he left me with the words "I must leave now, or our conversation will never end. "

Leonov has proven to be an amateur spicy food. The hotel with a veranda overlooking the ocean also lobster and crab galore.

One morning, I ask this question for him, "What is the most important quality in a man?"

Leonov thought briefly and said: "The ability to fight with oneself. "

I understood. Remove the self has been taught by sages including those of the sub-continent spoke Leonov.

Let me introduce the counterpoint.

World should revolve around me!

I was sitting on the self-same sea front porch with a second guest Clarke. This was a scientist working for a PhD NASA. I told him asked too that the most important quality in a man was.

The researcher said: "The self-respect. "He was willing do, but that ethic has been canceled in the direction of "The obsession with self" for the "me generation" of the Year 1970.

"Self-respect" must be understood in the context of the prospects for extending the time Reagan friend Margaret's arm Thatcher too. She said, "There is no such thing as society – there are only individuals and families. "

A song People said without sarcasm evident, "I think the world should revolve around me!" Have crooks like Bernard Madoff need more incentive?

Earlier, Sony had no further than the use BetaMax and Walkman for names at the launch of new products. Pimping later commercial self-adulation mentioned MyYahoo, WindowsMe, iMac, iPod and iPhone. A jewelry store in the UK calls itself "me me". With everyone drifted into doing his own thing, I get suspicious of the agenda of my neighbor. What follows naturally when my neighbor claims to fame and gives everyone blame for the ills of the street. I GETTA DA FAME – U GETTA DA BLAME.

Our ability to share useful information is broken down. To overcome the dullness of mind I turn to television. It recycles a washing machine my mind.

An empty loneliness? Videos provide me with air brushed little gods with whom to mingle Ego.

New "Cold War"

Neighborhood cat? My iPhone takes my place, up and away to MySpace on the Internet where I can overcome the loneliness of life in neighborhoods and office where a dividend of U.S. post-Soviet arms race has come. The dividend arrived in the form of a new "cold war" of each race against the other.

As for the war of each against-the-Other, it was proposed by Thomas Hobbes pamphleteer. He suggested that the population could be managed easier by the sovereign, if the company was atomized to the individual.

Hobbes method was found dangerous and was rejected by British statesmen in the 17th century. These statesmen were correct, its introduction into the 20th century triggered the atomization of society. In the UK, therefore, innovation is tapered off and the country has increased external debt that is greater than the debt per U.S. citizen.

Some researchers have cleverly managed to study aspects of the question. Jean M. and W. Twenga Keith Campbell put their research in a book entitled "Me! Me! Me! Narcissism Epidemic U.S.. "A brief excerpt follows below.

People are trying to create a "personal brand" (also called "Self-branding"), self-packaging as a product to sell. Advertisements for financial services claim that the retreat will help you return to Children and pursue your dreams. High school students beat up classmates and then look for the attention of their violence by posting videos YouTube beatings.

Although these seem like a random collection of current trends, they are all rooted in one quart underlying in American psychology: the relentless rise of narcissism in our culture. Not only are more narcissistic than ever, but not narcissistic people are seduced by the growing importance of material wealth, physical appearance, the cult of celebrity, and attention seeking. Standards have changed sucking people into the vortex otherwise humble granite countertops, cheated out MySpace pages, and plastic surgery. A dance popular repeats words "money, success, fame, glamor" several times, saying that all other values ​​have been "either discredited or destroyed. "

The United States is currently suffering an epidemic of narcissism … In data from 37,000 college students, the narcissistic personality traits increased as fast as obesity from the 1980s to today, with the passage particularly pronounced for women.

The rise of narcissism is the acceleration, with scores rising faster in the 2000s than in previous decades. In 2006, 1 in 4 students agree with most items on a standard measure of narcissistic traits.

Mere cunning

"Narcissism celebrities: Thinking bad for children" is a report tabled today in the journal U.S. by Sharon Jayson.

She interviews behavior expert and physician Drew Pinsky and S. Mark Young, a social scientist, in their book "The effect mirror. How Celebrity Narcissism seduced America "

She cites: "It can be especially dangerous for young people who see celebrities as role models. "

Q: Let's start with the title. What do you "Mirror effect" and why you say it's a problem?

A: I worked with celebrities many years. I have treated many cases of chemical dependency and other. They have deep childhood trauma. This is not something to do with their work or life they lead. They happen to be people driven to seek fame as a way to be felt more … We take someone who needs to be a god and that makes it a god.

Now, to go from observations of the United States, the effect young God comes as a corollary of unlimited choice. For biting into this apple makes the victim try to say "No" the obligation. In the family, children subjected to the programming on television often say "No" to the orientation by an elder (Managers provided the Madonna video "Papa Do not preach!) In addition to the desk, bequeathed this aggression, the Cold War and vacuum the house too.

Experience morning.

I was in a state bank that serves the public in Sri Lanka.

I spoke with an employee bank, with nearly 20 years of experience.

I asked him two tall, slim women clerks in banks, an Indian wearing a sari and the other wearing a dress pants and a Muslim headscarf, "Which of the two women is more intelligent?"

He said: "There not much difference. You see, young people rely on simple trick and will not be responsible. "

I had to call the post office. This was also a government institution, I decided to ask the postmaster to gray hair. His response was instantaneous: "Young people are irresponsible."

What a dramatic change between the two generations!

Reflections the old friendship

Later, at midnight the day before Christmas 2009, I came to hear a televised the mass of a Catholic cathedral in the north of Colombo.

A teenage boy recited a prayer in Tamil and monitoring to perfection in Sinhala. A short sermon Sinhalese was then delivered by a senior priest and this was followed by a sermon in Tamil because the neighborhood has a significant Tamil population. Yet, prayer and the answer soon arose in Sinhala. Then came singing in Tamil. Now, it is intriguing that the nation stumbled war in 1983, five years after the use of unlimited choice as a principle of the nation.

Looking at the world, the principle of unlimited choice leads U.S. foreign trade in a huge dependence on imports. To pay the bill to finance these imports, the U.S. chose to depend on China and other economies that arrive in the United States for the purchase of treasury bills and commercial paper. With the U.S. in recession transfer of these funds are now being elsewhere.

China turns its foreign exchange earnings to the improvement of access to infrastructure China's economy. This includes the development of a port complex in southern Sri Lanka and onshore pipelines for oil and natural gas in Asia Central China. Today the world is waiting for China that has preserved the tradition to keep his ego under control, the principle that the astronaut Leonov said.

An English friend asked me a few days ago, "What do we do?"

In numbing Sometimes we have to sort of a fortress.

I said, "old wine, old shoes and old friends."
