Professor Les Iversen delivers the Inaugural President’s Public Lecture during the BPS Winter Meeting, London 2010.
Prof. Iversen is the current chairman of the Advisory Council on the Misuse of Drugs and a founder council member of the British Medicinal Cannabis Register. He is also the author of many publications and books on cannabis. He is famous for his article in The Times headlined “Cannabis. Why It’s Safe” and for saying that cannabis is “one of the safer recreational drugs”.
He walks a courageous and tricky tightrope between science and his ACMD role. He is the government’s chief drug adviser so at least we know they are getting good advice even if they don’t act on it.
Why does water vaporized into the sky form clouds instead of just spreading out evenly in space? Where does lightning come from in a storm? How does Jello hold so much water inside without it leaking out? How does the water bug walk on water? One must watch this video of Dr.Gerald Pollack famous lecture Water, Energy, and Life: Fresh Views From the Water’s Edge to get the answers to these questions.
Dr. Pollack, professor of bioengineering, recently received the highest honor that the University of Washington at Seattle in the United States could confer on its own staff for his work with water. He demonstrates enough hard experimental science about water to redefine our understanding of health and medicine as well as the interaction between water and the subtle realms of energy, light, color and life. “It turns out that liquid crystalline water and sunlight are practically all we need for energy and life. Just add sunlight for energy and life,” writes Dr. Mae-Wan Ho.
The initial discovery that Pollack and his colleague Zheng Jian-ming reported in 2003 was that water forms a massive “exclusion zone” (EZ) next to the surface of hydrophilic (water-loving) gels. The EZ is so named because it excludes solutes, i.e., substances dissolved in the water. By putting into the water solutes large enough to be seen under the microscope, or even with the naked eye, the EZ shows up as a region completely clear of the solute. Thus, when a suspension of microspheres 0.5 to 2 mm in diameter is put into a chamber with the gel, a clear zone free of microspheres soon develops next to the gel and typically ends up hundreds of microns thick. Once it is formed, this EZ is stable, if undisturbed, for days or weeks.
Water Inside the Cell Very Different from Ordinary Water
Dr. Mae-Wan Ho asserts that, “Water associated with the cell—cell water—is not like regular water in bulk. Instead, the water molecules are aligned in ordered layers over a matrix of extended proteins in the “protoplasm.” The multiple layers of water molecules are aligned over protein surfaces where they play an important role not only in helping amino acids find their contact partners, but also in how the whole chains of proteins fold up. It seems that highly charged amino acids don’t like to be in direct contact, and such contacts are unstable, whereas the contact is stabilized if mediated by water. Water not only induces protein folding and binding, but also actively participates via long-range water-mediated contacts. Adding water may improve protein docking, protein and drug design strategies, and contribute to understanding the important role played by water in the function of proteins.”
One of the most significant things Dr. Pollack says is that we are not 70 percent water but, rather, 99 percent. There is only one other thing that we have more of in terms of our physical existence on earth and that is the empty space between and underlying matter. When we consider that we are 99 percent water it becomes exceedingly more important that we understand the mysteries of water, which Pollack helps us to understand.
My Waters of Life book gives birth to the principle of water-based medicines that are going to make a lot more sense than oil/chemical-based pharmaceuticals that disturb the 99 percent of our self that is water. Dr. Konstantin Korotkov writes, “Testing of medications on their properties to change the condition of distilled water revealed strong differences even for one and the same drug produced by different companies. There are drugs which practically do not change the structure of water as well as others which totally destroy it.”
“If you want to understand what happens in any system—be it biological, or physical, or chemical, or oceanographic, or atmospheric, or whatever—it doesn’t matter, anything involving water, you really have to know the behavior of this special kind of gel-like water, which dominates,” says Pollack.
Contemporary medicine will have to get a grip on itself and recognize that water is the most basic medicine and that the quality of the water consumed is crucial. Pollack gives us two important perceptions about water that cannot be denied without denying experimental science. The first is that water has an ability to organize itself into structured patterns that are electrically polarized and secondly this process is affected by radiant energy along a broad band of frequencies.
It is water that holds the secret to biological existence down to the point of being responsible in great part for memory in the brain. This makes sense since the brain is mostly water and the proteins in it cannot be separated from the water molecules that surround and get structured by brain tissues. There are many interesting implications to the work of Pollack.
Subtle Energies Matter
Dr. Ho says, “The usual denial that very weak electromagnetic fields have any effect is based on the argument that the energies in these fields are ‘below the thermal threshold’ of random motions of molecules, which will certainly swamp out the signals. But coherently vibrating molecules, far from swamping out the weak signals, will sum up their response to the weak signal, and hence result in a substantial effect. To use another analogy that engineers understand, the organism is like an exquisitely tuned receiver (and emitter) for EMFs over the widest possible range of frequencies. By half-accident, we found that all living organisms—especially those that are most actively moving around—look like a dynamic liquid crystal display in all the colors of the rainbow.”
Dr. Alexander Solodilov from the Academician of the Russian Academy of Natural Sciences subjected water to super weak magnetic field impulses. These fields are tens of thousands of times weaker than the Earth’s natural magnetic field. "To our surprise and to the surprise of the scientists with whom we were working, we discovered that water retains traces of our influence upon it for a phenomenal period of time. Water is a universal agent that brings the unified plan of the Creation to every living thing on the planet. It is absolute and it is unequivocal. Water not only fulfills the role of a universal solvent, not only does it include everything there is on Earth, to the very highest layers of the atmosphere – it penetrates every organism on a cellular level, from within and it reads information."
“The three phases of water that everybody knows about in the textbook just don’t do it. In fact, it’s a 100-year-old idea that there’s a fourth phase of water. This is not an original idea. Though the concept of a liquid crystalline, or gel-like, phase of water has been around for some time, the generally accepted view is that this kind of water is only two or three molecular layers thick. And what we found in our experiments is that it’s not two or three layers, but two or three million layers. In other words, it’s the dominant feature,” Pollack said.
“Turns out that the thickness depends on the pH,” Pollack said. “If you increase the pH, we found that this region gets thicker. It also gets thicker with time. So if you wait long enough, and if you have the right conditions, and maybe enough light beating down on it, you could conceivably get a very thick layer.
Dr. Pollack has handed us another secret to sodium bicarbonate (simple baking soda) and why it is the excellent medicine that it is. We already know that part of its affect is to raise CO2 levels in the blood, which not only changes the blood’s zeta potential in a positive way but also raises oxygen transport and oxygen concentration.
I call sodium bicarbonate the Rich Man’s Poor Man’s Cancer Treatment in my book Sodium Bicarbonate, A Full Medical Review because bicarbonate does wonders for people suffering from cancer as it does for people with diabetes, kidney and heart disease. Bicarbonate-laden water, whether sourced from Himalayan Mountains or from your own pure water made at home, is one of life’s most basic elixirs; one that surpasses anything pharmaceutical companies can muster.
Daily News @ http://RevolutionNews.US — MLK assassinated by US government: King family civil trial 1999 decision. Why didn't you know this?
Martin Luther King's family and his attorney, William F. Pepper, won a civil trial that found US government agencies guilty in the wrongful death of Martin Luther King. The 1999 trial, King Family versus Jowers and Other Unknown Co-Conspirators, is the only trial ever conducted on the assassination of Dr. King. The King family's attempts for a criminal trial were denied, as suspect James Ray's recant of what he claimed was a false confession was denied. The overwhelming evidence of government complicity introduced and agreed as comprehensively valid by the jury includes the 111th Military Intelligence Group were sent to Dr. King's location and that the usual police protection was pulled away just before the assassination. Military Intelligence set-up alleged photographers on a roof of a fire station with a clear view to Dr. King's balcony. 20th Special Forces Group had an 8-man sniper team at the assassination location on that day. Memphis police ordered the scene where multiple witnesses reported as the source of shooting cut down of their bushes that would have hid a sniper team. Along with sanitizing a crime scene, police abandoned investigative procedure to interview witnesses who lived by the scene of the shooting.
Veteran weather modification expert Ben Livingston is a former Navy Physicist who briefed President Lyndon B. Johnson on the effectiveness of weather control back in the 1960's during the Vietnam era, when he was involved in cloud seeding programs that worked to slow down the advance of Vietnamese and Korean troops. Livingston asserts that asserts that hurricane control was a national priority of the government more than 40 years ago and that the technology was fully operational to control the weather at the time.
In this exclusive interview for Prison Planet.tv subscribers, Livingston explains how for decades the US government has had the power to both lessen and increase the severity of adverse weather for their own purposes.
Dr. Livingston was assigned in 1966 from the Naval weapons research Laboratory to a marine fighter squadron in Vietnam. Instead of guns, the aircraft under Livingston's control were fitted with cloud seeding equipment. "My mission was to find clouds and seed them for maximum precipitation value" he stated. Dr. Livingston presents evidence from the Stanford research Institute, who were brought into Project Storm Fury (a weather control program) in the late sixties as a third party, which stated conclusively that knowledge of how to stop hurricanes had been uncovered and that they would be directly liable should a hurricane hit and cause extensive damage and loss of life. Four decades later and Livingston exposes how the devastation caused by Hurricane Katrina could have been greatly minimized but was allowed to fully impact Gulf states for political reasons.
Having personally flown on 265 missions into the eyes of hurricanes, Livingston remarks that he was "disgusted" by the failure to lessen the impact of Katrina. Livingston's revelations that weather control has been a decades long program in which the US government has been deeply involved are particularly alarming given the abundant modern-day evidence of how chemtrails are being used to warp our environment in a secret geoengineering plot that threatens a myriad of unknown human health and ecological consequences.
