Chips Ahoy!!! - The boiling frog in the pot phenomenon applies to the gradual implementation of implanting microchips in humans. Eventually it will become mandatory upon pain of death for refusal.

Micro Management" has taken on a whole new meaning, yes? The recent increase in news reports about abducted children, more oft than not found heaven-bound, sadly to say, is only going to continue. The mass hysteria generated by the removal of the chicks from the hens follows the pecking order of this new feeding frenzy found to be induced by the ever increasing granules of terror doled out by the farmer, who continues to fatten his poultry for butchering.
We continue to witness a large sector of delusional mindsets, insomuch as our society has been sold on the theory that the costs TO freedom outweigh the costs FOR freedom. That the events of 9/11 remain the catalyst - if not catapult - for swift and sudden changes in both attitudes and approaches is inarguable.
Consider, for example, the following:

A Chip ID That's Only Skin-Deep - Biotech Firm plans to sell implantable devices that can store a variety of data about you. [Home Edition] DAVID STREITFELD, TIMES STAFF WRITER; The Los Angeles Times; Dec 19, 2001; Record edition; pg. A.1
Brief text excerpt:
A Florida company is poised to become the first to sell microchips designed to be implanted into human beings, an achievement that opens the door to new systems of medical monitoring and ID screening.
Implantable chips have long been discussed by technologists and denounced by those who object on religious grounds or fear their use by a totalitarian state. But the company that did the test, Applied Digital Solutions of Palm Beach, said the specter of terrorism is shifting attitudes. The direct union of man and computer is no longer dismissed out of hand."

The title says it all. Creation of fear is in itself the creation of security. How so? We are shown a most frightening image, and immediately provided with a solution to remedy its effects upon our senses. The cause promulgates the cure. Simply put, the creation of fear gives rise to the necessity for security. I should think in mathematical terms, the equation would resemble:
Cause + Effect = Change
or
Fear over Security = Control
There is no question that the elitists are continuing their pogrom of our fundamental freedoms, rights and liberties, in their ever-continuing quest for a New World Order. Their plans include the creation of individual fears for our children, by placing the boogyman on every street corner and increasing 10-fold the number of abductions....well, let me just say that you will undoubtedly be seeing print ads (if not TV commercials) from Applied Digital Solutions (among others) pedaling something akin to the "Child Away Recovery Emitter", or "C.A.R.E." Perhaps it won't be that corny, but nonetheless, it's a'coming, folks.
Heck, it's been around for quite some time already where pets are concerned. Take a moment to review the following:

"Hand-held microchip scanner will read and recognize both the Home Again and the Avid brand microchips. It will also recognize the existence of other types of microchips, however, will not read them. ..."

Other types of -chips???? Just how many different chips are they coming up with? At any rate, if that wasn't enough for you, then here's another one for your reading enjoyment:

Detroit considers requiring microchip implants for dogs August 28, 1998 http://www.freep.com/tech/qchip28.htm
"In Detroit, it may soon get harder for Fido to keep his anonymity when he gets picked up by dog catchers.
The city's health department is working on an ordinance that would make it mandatory for residents to have microchips implanted in their dogs that would provide information on the pet and its owner when scanned.
The department's animal control unit already has been implanting microchips in dogs that it gives out for adoption. The chip, which is covered with a protective coating and is not discernible to the human eye, is placed beneath the skin on the dog's neck. With a scanner that is about the size of a wand, animal control officers would be able to obtain such information as the dog's name, its owner, its attack record and whether it has been picked up before."

Take particular note of the part that reads "....AND ITS OWNER" [emphasis added-ds].
Another scare tactic that continues to be on the front lines of the psy-op marketing stratagem is the promise of saving lives. Heck, we all want to live forever, don't we? For example:

Implanted Microscopic Chip
"The implanted microscopic brain chip110 performs two functions. First, it links the individual to the IIC, creating a seamless interface between the user and the information resources (in-time collection data and archival databases). In essence, the chip relays the processed information from the IIC to the user. Second, the chip creates a computer-generated mental visualization based upon the user's request. The visualization encompasses the individual and allows the user to place himself into the selected battlespace. "

A new kind of fish 'n' chips: Microchips to aid tracking of salmon By Lisa Heyamoto - Seattle Times staff reporter http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/134303417_salmon06m.html

Have Biochip Will Travel Part Man, Part Computer Microchip implant will record neurological signals By Donnalee Moulton http://www.mnsi.net/~mousepad/Articles/01Nov06_00FinPost.htm
"Dr. Kevin Warwick is already making plans for next summer, but soaking up too much sun and rum punch is not part of them. He will be too busy trying to revolutionize medicine.
The director of cybernetics at the University of Reading in England intends to have a microchip implanted in his arm next year. That chip will be linked directly to a computer outside his body and internally to his central nervous system. "It will be a two-way process. The computer will store signals and later send [those] same signals," Dr. Warwick says."

The Battle of our Life Time
What an Age we live in my dear brothers and sisters? Corporations and Business on anything. Everything is for sale...all displayed to see and pick. Bodies in all shapes and forms posing for the fateful glance, Souls bare open with their small and ...pitiful dramas of our everyday existence all out there to attract like hungry mouths waiting for the higher biter. We kept nothing sacred nothing pure all are for sale to the crematories of death and all that beautiful and real was ...given for a trifle an itchy bitsy illusion, a flickering moment of pleasure.
For how long we will give in to the seductive eyes and the call of the vanities of the world? How many times we will have to pick ourselves up from the dirt?
As our liberties are taken one after the other and soon it will be that we will have nothing to give and nothing to share except our own soul… are we going to sell that too?
Are we fear pain and isolation? Is it that we will go hungry? Our children will die, or cast out from a society that doesn’t give a dime for the Good, the beautiful or the True?
Should we really be afraid?
Think about it. When you have the Universal order on your site how it is possible to lose any battle you give?
And it is time for battle my dear friends a battle for Peace on Earth my dear brothers and sisters. There is no way that we can lose this battle we cannot afford to lose the only opportunity we have to build a new future for all living beings on earth.
It should be clear by now that We are not the rulers of this world but instead we have a contract of symbiosis with all beings …the occupants of this great sphere we call our home our mother EARTH.
We have to stand up and be counted as the time and the calling is now. Lets pick up a field and start fighting discord and disease in all levels. We will not give in and we will never give up.
This Planet depended on beings with Good Will, you and me and what we contribute in this battle is of a great importance.
Rise against mindless Death and Destruction, say Yes to Life and the Harmony of All Beings.
Thank you.

Autodidactic Hall of Fame - Self-educated People Who've Made a Difference
Millions of people pay a king's ransom for college tuition to learn what is free for the taking when motivated by a compelling desire to learn. In the movie Good Will Hunting, Will (played by Matt Damon) chides an arrogant Ivy League student for paying a fortune for an education that would be free but for the price of a library card. Although this is absolutely valid, very few people believe it. Instead they are convinced the knowledge they could acquire on their own is secondary to paying a lot of money to an institution which will attest that they have, even if they cheated their way through the process.
Credentialism has existed for centuries in one form or another as groups with an information or knowledge advantage have tried to maintain their position of superiority with everything from guilds and associations to secret societies and esoteric languages. And even though teachers and educators have noble intentions, their position in our economy, by design is dependent upon a psychology of the scarcity of knowledge.
Whole categories of attributes from self-help to self-directed inquiry have been coined to disguise and set apart individual learning as an aberration so as not to displace the hierarchical power of educators. And yet, throughout history self-educated men and women from all walks of life and social stations have risen to the occasion of the challenges facing them. In so doing, they have set new standards for learning, which without question have raised the bar of achievement for their respective societies. But only in the latter half of the twentieth-century has the insidious notion that one must have the blessing of an institution to function in society been generally accepted without protest.
We need colleges and universities just as we need teachers and people who are enthusiastic about sharing their knowledge with others. But the idea that the only learning respectable enough for economic compensation comes from institutions, which treat it as a scarce resource, is patently absurd.

In so doing, they have set new standards for learning, which without question have raised the bar of achievement for their respective societies. But only in the latter half of the twentieth-century has the insidious notion that one must have the blessing of an institution to function in society been generally accepted without protest.
We need colleges and universities just as we need teachers and people who are enthusiastic about sharing their knowledge with others. But the idea that the only learning respectable enough for economic compensation comes from institutions, which treat it as a scarce resource, is patently absurd.
