12 -1 Pema Chodron, "When Pain is the Doorway" Part 1 of 2
Awakening in the Most Difficult Circumstances'
What if the full sense of our aliveness were only to be found amidst our most challenging times and difficult experiences? In pain and crisis, teaches Pema Chödrön, there lies a hidden doorway to freedom that appears to us only when we're sure that there is no way out.
In these intimate audio learning sessions, Pema Chödrön helps us distinguish the triggers or external events that we blame for our suffering from the deeper habitual patterns that feed our anger, fear, or sadness. From this understanding, we learn how to free ourselves from our propensity to suffer through the transformative awareness of impermanence-the dynamic and ever-shifting nature of both joy and suffering, self and selflessness-and the absolute and eternal flow from which all of it arises.
What is causing my pain? What will happen if I simply lean in, keep company with it, hold it with tenderness? Moment by moment, Pema supports and encourages listeners to bring an openhearted sense of curiosity and welcoming to our apparently impossible situations or unbearable relationships-to discover the deeper freedom available just beneath the surface.
For those experiencing emotional crisis, 'When Pain Is the Doorway' provides expert guidance to help us stop, stay present, and enter into a more welcoming, spacious place of being that is our true home.

FTV 010 - Pauline Kael
"We have been turned into emotional and aesthetic imbeciles when we hear ourselves humming the sickly, goody-goody songs." ~Pauline Kael (1919 - 2001), reviewing 'The Sound of Music'
Born in 1919 in California, renowned film critic and columnist Pauline Kael began her illustrious career by writing movie reviews for the now-defunct Cinema Guild Theatre in San Francisco. By the 1950's, Kael had taken her reviews to the airwaves of KPFA in Berkeley, where, engrossed in the new and unique spirit of community radio, she honed and developed her invigorating style of film critique. Kael's reviews were meticulously detailed and incredibly opinionated, and lent themselves well to a new kind of audience that appreciated the eclectic mix of programming generated at KPFA, the first community-funded radio station in the world. She developed a passionate following for her reviews- not only for her opinions, but also because of the wonderful sociological examinations woven throughout her work.
Pauline Kael went on from KPFA to write several books and contribute to many publications, but as a writer is probably best known for her stint at The New Yorker, where she was given plenty room to breathe and be herself. Twenty five years after beginning her long and prolific career at The New Yorker, she retired in 1991. Pauline Kael died at her home in Massachusetts in 2001.
Today, Pauline Kael is widely considered one of the best film critics to have ever taken up a pen (or microphone!). Kael delivered her best work when both challenging and entertaining her listeners and readers.

2-3:30 Richard Gerber MD, "Exploring Vibrational Medicine" #2 of 3
'A New Era in Healing Has Already Started''
Can meditation and prayer affect the healing process? How do acupuncture, homeopathy, and healing touch work? Is it possible that the energy in our bodies is connected to the unlimited energy of the universe itself?
Over 20 years ago, when physician Richard Gerber began to investigate the new frontiers of healing, he met with skepticism. Today his groundbreaking views on alternative healing systems have entered the corridors of our major hospitals and research centers. On 'Exploring Vibrational Medicine,' Dr. Gerber builds on his pioneering work with a wealth of new and rare insights into the most promising energetic healing therapies.
Through study after fascinating study, you will hear about new findings on unique frequencies emitted by the human body; compelling evidence that proves we are composed of pure energy; how chakra points and acupuncture meridians draw energy from outside systems; and much more.
Complete with guided imagery exercises, 'Exploring Vibrational Medicine' is a revolutionary work about the oldest and newest discovery in medical science-the power of the body to heal itself naturally.

12-1 Dave Emory, "For the Record #1007 - Alfa Males, Part 4: 9/11, the Underground Reich and the Russia-Gate Psy-Op"
In this broadcast, we present elements fundamental to an understanding of the Russia-Gate psy-op-elements which heavily overlap the 9/11 attacks in particular.
In several programs, we have noted Felix Sater's work on behalf of both CIA and FBI.
Sater has been a very important U.S. intelligence operative, with many of his principal efforts involving fields of endeavor directly related to Al-Qaeda, Osama bin Laden and the 9/11 attacks. The article below highlights those efforts, especially some which place his work directly in the milieu of the Operation Green Quest raids, which were effectively covered up by Robert Mueller when he headed the FBI.
" . . . . Sater reported back to intelligence agencies on the results of coalition bombings, kills on the battlefield, the financial networks behind the 9/11bombers and other al-Qaeda members worldwide, and even the identity of a New Mexico company believed to be laundering terror funds in the US. . . ."
Next, we revisit information from FTR #530 concerning the relationship between 9/11 hijack ringleader Mohamed Atta and the Carl Duisberg Gesellschaft, a joint U.S. German fellowship program that sponsored Atta's entry to, and stay in, Germany. (For more about Atta and the CDS, see-among other programs-FTR#'s 477, 523.)
It is interesting, and probably significant that the mysterious German couple who brought Atta into Germany under the auspices of the CDS came to meet him through their friend, Mohamed's father. In FTR#523, we examined the senior Atta's apparent supervision of the hijackers in Florida. He was apparently the leader of the group, a fact covered up by the FBI. In FTR#519, we looked at the senior Atta's endorsement of the London subway attacks.
Notice the strange circumstances under which the faceless German couple came to sponsor Atta. Does this make sense? Note, also, that the identity of the German couple who sponsored Atta was kept secret by the Chicago Tribune. WHY?!
In 2011, the Carl Duisberg Society merged with the Association for International Practical Training (AIPT) and became Cultural Vistas. One of the CDS's subsidiary elements in the early years of this century-the Alfa Fellowship Program-is now a subsidiary of Cultural Vistas.
In January 2011, Cultural Vistas was formed after a nonprofit merger between two longstanding exchange organizations: the Association for International Practical Training (AIPT) and CDS International.
Alfa Fellowship Program
Robert Bosch Foundation Fellowship Program
Congress-Bundestag Youth Exchange
The Carl Duisberg Society (CDS International in the above Wikipedia entry), which shepherded Atta into the U.S. is described in an entry on a website that also featured the Alfa Fellowship, sponsored by the Alfa conglomerate: " . . . . In the 1920's, Carl Duisberg, General Director of Bayer AG in Germany, envisioned sending German students to the United States on work-study programs. Duisberg was convinced that international practical training was critical to the growth of German industry. Many of the returning trainees later rose to prominent positions at AEG, Bayer, Bosch, Daimler Benz, and Siemens, bringing with them new methods for mass production, new ideas, and new business practices. Following World War II, alumni from the first exchanges founded the Carl Duisberg Gesellschaft (CDG) in 1949 to help engineers, businessmen and farmers gain international work experience necessary for the rebuilding of Germany . . . ."
The Alfa Fellowship was on the website of the CDS. Now, it is a subsidiary of the Cultural Vistas non-profit, resulting from the merged CDS entity.
"ALFA FELLOWSHIP PROGRAM"; Page on the Carl Duisberg Society web site (as of 2006).
"ALFA FELLOWSHIP PROGRAM: Nearly fifteen years after the fall of the Soviet Union, Cold War-era policies and concepts continue to affect U.S. relations with Russia. . . . The Alfa Fellowship Program is designed to address this problem . . . ."
Crown Resources and other Crown entities are part of the Alfa Group, one of whose outgrowths is the CDS subsidiary program, the Alfa Fellowship. Note that Marc Rich, whose pardon was investigated by former FBI director James Comey, dealt with Crown Alfa, although an effort to sell his commodities deal to the company failed. " . . . . A deal to sell the Swiss-based commodities operation of former U.S. fugitive financier Marc Rich to Russia-owned energy trading group Crown Resources is off. . . . Crown is owned by the Alfa Group conglomerate. . . ."
One of the principal figures in the Crown/Alfa network is Dr. Norbert Seeger, about whom we will more below.
" . . . 30. Dr. Norbert Seeger; Rechtanswalt, Vaduz [Liechtenstein]-Information includes: Knowledge of facts pertaining to role of Crown Finance Foundation and other Crown entities in money laundering and tax evasion activities. . . ." (From the legal documents in a lawsuit-"Rule 26 Initial Disclosures; UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT; SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK; NOREX PETROLEUM LIMITED No. 02 Civ. 1499 (LTS)(KNF); Plaintiff v. ACCESS INDUSTRIES, INC.; Et. Al. Defendants; PLAINTIFF'S RULE 26(a)(1) INITIAL DISCLOSURES; 1. INDIVIDUALS LIKELY TO HAVE DISCOVERABLE INFORMATION THAT MAY BE USED TO SUPPORT NOREX'S CLAIMS . . . . A. Individuals Associated With Plaintiff"; p. 8. . . ."
A critical element of discussion here concerns the tiny principality of Liechtenstein-a small European country of 32,000 people, whose principal industry is money laundering. As we will see, Liechtenstein figures significantly in the events in and around 9/11. In 2001, Prince Hans Adam became (for all intents and purposes) the only absolute monarch in Europe. This gambit was accomplished through a popular referendum, effected under the auspices of a front group-the Progressive Citizens Party.
The referendum ceded to the Prince virtually all real power. In particular, he had the ability to completely control the judicial system, thereby controlling all legal investigations in the country-a particularly interesting and important power in the very important year of 2001! This assumption of absolute power put Hans Adam in the position of being able to block or neutralize any legal investigation into any of the financial shenanigans that transpired in Liechtenstein, including 9/11-related activities!
The Bank Al-Taqwa was incorporated in Liechtenstein!
The head of Liechtenstein's Progressive Citizens Party is Norbert Seeger-a principal figure in Alfa's Crown Resources subsidiary!!
Information about the Al Taqwa/Asat Trust links with the royal family of Liechtenstein is set forth as follows: " . . . . One company in the Al Taqwa galaxy that was designated by the United States and the U.N. as a terrorist-related entity is a Liechtenstein entity called Asat Trust. . . . The records also shed light on the involvement of one member of the royal family of Liechtenstein in Asat Trust. According to the documents, deceased Prince Emanuel von und zu Liechtenstein became a board member of Asat Trust in May 1970 and stayed until November 1990, when he was replaced by Martin Wachter, the trust's current director. Florian Krenkel, a spokesman for the royal family, said Prince Emmanuel had died in 1987 and that he was a distant cousin from ruling Prince Hans Adam II. . . .
". . . There also appears to be some links between Asat Trust and a bank owned by the Liechtenstein royal family. Several Asat Trust documents feature on their letterheads 'Bank in Liechtenstein AG' beneath 'Asat Trust.' The royal family bank has changed its name and is now called LGT bank. . . ."
Delving into the nature of the royal family of Liechtenstein, the program closes with discussion of the closeness between Hans-Adam II's clan and the Hapsburg dynasty that ruled the Austro-Hungarian Empire until the end of World War I.

3-3:30 The Bioneers - Revolution from the Heart of Nature
'Backlash Moment: Converging at the Crossroads of Identity and Justice'
When Donald Trump rode a wave of white anxiety into the White House, it was part of a backlash to the Obama presidency, one that revealed an increasingly explicit white nationalism and revived an overtly exclusionary agenda: roll back rights and protections for people of color, immigrants, Muslims, women, and gay and transgender people. Then came the backlash to the backlash: a rapidly spreading awakening that all these peoples, movements and struggles are actually connected in one story. Visionary law professor and change-maker Kimberlé Crenshaw shows that it's only at the crossroads of our many identities that will we will find a story big enough to embrace the diversity and complexity of our globalized 21st century world.
