In 2006, Laura Eisenhower, the great granddaughter of President Dwight D. Eisenhower, was approached by a secretive group wanting to recruit her to go to Mars. Eisenhower learned that the Mars project was headed by Dr. Hal Puthoff, who was very familiar with exotic technologies used to ferry personnel and supplies to bases on Mars and other planet and moons in our solar system. This familiarity helps explain Puthoff's knowledge of more than 10 UFO crash retrieval operations in the USA, and a similar number worldwide that he confirmed in an interview with Joe Rogan.Eisenhower discussed the role of the Anunnaki in genetically altering humanity, effectively dumbing down our ancient ancestors who possessed 12-strand DNA, after the Anunnaki arrived approximately 300,000 years ago. She describes how ancient practitioners of the mother goddess religions, were defeated by Anunnaki forces led by Enki/Ea and Marduk, and assimilated into the patriarchal belief system dominated by the male sky gods, Anu, Enki, Marduk and Enlil.Eisenhower asserts that the return of Enki/Ea opens up yet another chapter in the good cop bad cop dynamic played by the Anunnaki in deceiving and manipulating humanity through the ages using genetic engineering and other advanced technologies. She believes that rather than relying on extraterrestrial saviors, or their representatives, awakened humans need to re-connect with their own internal divine source thereby becoming ‘guardians'—human angels that can help the rest of humanity steer the right pathway between the Scylla and Charybdis of extraterrestrial contact.Laura Eisenhower's website is: https://cosmicgaia.org/Her book is Awakening the Truth Frequency: Into the Unified Field (2024).Join Dr. Salla on Patreon for Early Releases, Webinar Perks and More.Visit https://Patreon.com/MichaelSalla/

For Freedom, Christ has set you free! Paul to the Galatians (5:1)We love our freedom as Americans and later this week will celebrate our independence.Yet, freedom can go awry, as Paul warns; in fact, he tells us not to use our freedom for our own self-indulgence.  How shall we live then?  Relish our freedom or discipline ourselves against it?  It can often seem as if we live (and especially try to raise our kids) caught in between a Scylla and Charybdis, between a "Do whatever I want-ism" and a "Legalism that becomes exclusiv-ism."Paul offers a different way of thinking and moving forward: focus on how Christ has set us free FOR loving and serving our neighbor.

Market volatility isn't new, but over the past year it has intensified due to tariff tensions, unpredictable interest rates, and persistent inflation, leaving investors to navigate contradictory and confusing economic signals. This raises a critical question for investors: how can you make wise decisions when news cycles outpace policy changes and traditional indicators seem  unreliable?In this episode of Smart Advice, host Carissa Lucreziano welcomes back David Wong, Chief Investment Officer and Head of Total Investment Solutions at CIBC Global Asset Management. With decades of experience guiding investors through economic storms, David brings clarity to a chaotic moment. He breaks down what's really happening with Canadian and global markets, discusses the potential for recession amid tariff uncertainties, and highlights the evolving roles of fixed income, gold, and alternatives in a diversified portfolio. Additionally, David also explores the impact of artificial intelligence as a future growth driver and its potential implications for investment strategies. He emphasizes the importance of staying invested during turbulent times and offers insights into low-volatility equity strategies as a practical approach to managing risk.This episode provides a strategic perspective on investing, offering practical insights on managing risk and refining your investment strategy amidst the noise of the headlines.Here are three reasons why you should listen to this episode:Understand how global tariff tensions and inflation are shaping Canadian markets—and what that means for your investment strategy.Discover effective strategies for building a resilient, diversified portfolio that can weather short-term volatility without sacrificing long-term growth.Explore the influence of artificial intelligence and alternative investments on market trends and your investment approach.ResourcesCIBC's "Smart Advice" Podcast and WebsiteVisit CAM Investment insights for timely expert insights and research Visit CIBC for more Smart AdviceChicago Mercantile Exchange FedWatch ToolC.D. Howe Institute's Business Cycle CouncilMcKinsey Study on AI AdoptionGoldman Sachs Forecast on AI ImpactEpisode Highlights[00:25] Navigating 2025 with a resilient investment strategyMarket turbulence in 2025 means Canadians need to adapt their investment strategy.David Wong describes the current market in one word: “challenged”.[02:41] David: “More than anything, the uncertainty surrounding where tariffs will ultimately settle is creating challenges on planning for investments from businesses and big ticket purchases from consumers.”He outlines the major factors distorting traditional economic indicators—particularly tariffs—and explains how these distortions complicate policy decisions.As uncertainty continues to cloud the outlook, the importance of adaptable, long-term strategies becomes even more apparent.[04:23] Impact of tariffs and interest rates on investmentsTwo possible economic scenarios are in the Bank of Canada's latest monetary policy report—one involving tariff resolution, and the other pointing toward global trade conflict.Interest rate expectations in the U.S. have shifted; markets are now pushing back rate cut forecasts due to persistent inflation.In Canada, rising unemployment and stubborn core inflation have increased the risk of recession, adding more weight to central bank decisions.Rather than react to every policy shift, a better investment strategy may be to build diversified portfolios that reflect multiple possible outcomes.[09:07] Volatility and market reactionsMarket movements in April reflect just how reactive investors have become to tariff-related headlines, swinging sharply with each new development.David emphasizes that inflation remains a key concern—one that hasn't been resolved post-COVID and could be exacerbated by global trade tensions.In times like these, staying invested and resisting panic is more valuable than ever, especially for those with a long investment horizon.Low-volatility equity strategies are suggested as a practical way to stay the course while addressing investor concerns around risk.[13:08] Investment allocation and diversificationCarissa raises the question of whether investors should stay Canada-focused or explore U.S. and international markets for growth.David explains that while U.S. exposure has historically delivered strong returns, overconcentration can pose risks—especially in uncertain times.Artificial intelligence is flagged as a future growth driver with long-term potential. However, it likely will not make a significant impact for several years.Diversification across regions, sectors, and asset types—including gold and fixed income—is presented as a foundational strategy for resilience.[20:33] Risk management and investment approachRisk isn't just about volatility, it's about understanding what drives market changes and how to prepare for them.[21:06] David: “Reward and risk are related concepts, and you simply can't get reward without taking some level of risk.”David introduces CIBC's Managed Solutions framework, built on three pillars: purpose, structure, and fulfillment.By focusing on fundamental diversification, his team aims to deliver consistent value even in unpredictable market conditions.Balancing short-term noise with long-term discipline remains key, especially as markets send mixed signals on a daily basis.[26:07] Final thoughts and investment frameworkDavid urges listeners to develop a clear investment framework aligned with their financial goals.He reinforces that earnings growth and bond yields—not daily headlines—are the real engines of long-term returns.[26:49] David: “The fear of missing out can be just as dangerous as overreacting to negative news. It's the Scylla and Charybdis of investing.”It's critical to contextualize media-driven fear and avoid impulsive decisions; overcorrecting due to media can severely damage a portfolio.Canadians can confidently navigate market uncertainty, but have to remain disciplined while diversifying their portfolios and utilizing expert insight.About David David is responsible for CIBC Global Asset Management's managed solutions investment process and portfolio management.

BOOKS UNDER DISCUSSION: Leslie Butler, Consistent Democracy: The "Woman Question" and Self-Government in Nineteenth-Century America (Oxford University Press, 2023). Holly Case, The Age of Questions: Or, A First Attempt at an Aggregate History of the Eastern, Social, Woman, American, Jewish, Polish, Bullion, Tuberculosis, and Many Other Questions over the Nineteenth Century, and Beyond by Holly Case (Princeton University Press, 2018) Civilizations have faced challenges and debated how to manage them probably as long as civilization has existed. In our era we talk about these challenges as issues, or crises when perceived as more urgent. In the nineteenth century, what we now call issues or problems tended to be spoken of as questions. In this sprawling conversation, ranging from nineteenth-century “trolls” to the scalability of democracy in a various media ecosystems, Leslie Butler and Holly Case talk not only about the 19th-century questions that have captivated them as scholars, but also how, where, by whom, and to what ends these questions were discussed. When did posing questions serve to bring rationality and even-handedness to debates and when was it a rhetorical strategy intended to steer towards a particular end? Butler's analysis of the “Woman Question” in America's pursuit of “consistent democracy” distinguished between public opinion and published opinion while Case implicates the internationalization of the public sphere in the emergence of an “Age of Questions.” Have a listen as these erudite scholars contemplate the ways historians might navigate between the Scylla of cynicism and Charybdis of overly earnest naiveté in analyzing the past as well as in our current moment. Leslie Butler is a Professor of History at Dartmouth College in Hanover, NH. She is an American intellectual and cultural historian, with an emphasis on the nineteenth century. Holly Case is a historian of modern Europe at Brown University in Providence, RI. Her work focuses on the relationship between foreign policy, social policy, science, and literature in the European state system of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.

On Prophecy Radio episode #136, Karen and Kristen continue their discussion of The Red Pyramid with chapters 27 and 28! They also talk about their new obsession with Lorcana and some small updates with Percy Jackson and the Olympians on Disney+. New episodes of Prophecy Radio will air every other week. All discussions are PG-13. News and Updates (00:05:42) We take a few minutes to talk about how much we love Lorcana. Did you see the new Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2 poster? We're pretty sure this is Charybdis. We love the vibe and think it meshes very well with what we've seen in season 1. Liam has been putting in the work at Screenrant, giving us some good stuff to talk about while we wait for more season 2 information! Aryan talks about his experience filming season 2. We're super excited to see Grover's growth this year! We also learn when Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 3 starts filming. What can we expect from Comic-Con this year? The Red Pyramid discussion (00:13:48) This week's chapters felt like they had a little more forward motion. Let's kick this off with our Red Pyramid chapter 27 discussion! We really love being in Sadie's POV! Which of the Kane siblings do you relate to most? YOU MUSTN'T READ FROM THE BOOK! Once again we are convinced this book would look so amazing on screen. We discuss how “conflicting stories can be equally true” and how difficult that is to accept. Sadie kind of doesn't have a choice about accepting what's going on around her. Why does Sadie feel guilty about Isis' role in Set's downfall but is also adamant that she's a totally separate person!? We talk about demons in Egyptian mythology. What do we think of Shezmu?? Why did Carter run for the Book of the Dead? Wait, HOW do they make the wine of the dead?? Does Shezmu being the Lord of the Perfume actually make sense?? What ARE secret names, exactly? There are SO many comparisons between Egyptian and Greek mythology. It's time for our favorite lines and favorite moments! And now we're going to move onto Red Pyramid chapter 28. Toilet humor + the apocalypse = Rick Riordan's signature style Turns out a lake of fire smells about as bad as you'd think. We were SO HAPPY to see Iskandar again. Was Iskandar's heart in the right place when he banned the hosting of gods? It's so nice when an adult can admit they're wrong!! Did Sadie and Carter's parents know what they were doing when they got married and had kids? Was this the Ma'at making sure the universe remained balanced? Were you surprised that Sadie formally forgave Iskandar? Why was this section in the Underworld so focused on Sadie? Is nobody worried about how they're going to get back from the island in the middle of the lake of fire!? Carter is definitely a finger guns type of guy. Why are dogs so often connected to death and the Underworld? The dog is definitely Anubis and Sadie is definitely into him. And so are we. Baboon is a very efficient language. The fact that Anubis and Sadie are into each other is…complicated. Is there anyone who would turn down a hippodoodle!? Will Carter be angry that Sadie keeps leaving him behind? Anubis whips out the toilet paper to make a bench. He also kind of puts his foot in his mouth when he mentions her mother. The feather of truth is kind of intense and it is sure to lead to some interesting situations. There's a reason Anubis is such a sad boy and it's…yikes. He's a lot like Hades, and Sadie says the ONE thing that could get him to hand over the feather. Would Sadie choose her father or the world? What are our favorite lines and favorite moments?? Thanks for listening, and tune in next time for episode 137, where we'll discuss The Red Pyramid chapters 29 and 30, as well as get you up to date on whatever Percy Jackson news might pop up. This episode's hosts are: Karen and Kristen Each episode, Prophecy Radio‘s hosts will discuss any official news coming out of Camp Half-Blood before doing a chapter by chapter reread of Percy Jackson or one of Rick Riordan's other series.

You're not just bad if you notice. You're an antisemite deepstate operative apparently. Plus all the other names that mean nothing anymore.Segment 1: Ukraine and Zelensky Critique (00:02:08 - 00:20:03)* Main Topic: The hosts criticize Ukrainian President Zelensky, calling him weak and accusing him of sabotaging peace talks with the U.S. administration.* Key Points:* Ukraine is depicted as devastated, with no army left, conscripting the elderly and mentally handicapped.* Zelensky's attempt to "bully" the U.S., particularly J.D. Vance and Donald Trump, is mocked as illogical given Ukraine's dependence on U.S. support.* Claims of corruption: Ukrainian oligarchs allegedly misuse U.S. aid for personal gain (e.g., spending in Switzerland and U.S. ski resorts like Breckenridge).* Reference to a supposed list of U.S. politicians receiving kickbacks from Ukraine (e.g., Joe Biden: $92M, Mitch McConnell: $89M, Nancy Pelosi: $86M).* Tone: Sarcastic and hyperbolic, with strong anti-war sentiment and disdain for U.S. involvement.* Notable Quotes:* "Zelensky's a little bit of a b***h." (00:03:20)* "If you get the most warmongering homosexual on the planet [Lindsey Graham] to go against you, you done effed up." (00:08:15)Segment 2: U.S. Domestic Issues and Principles (00:20:03 - 00:27:00)* Topics Covered:* National Debt: Discussion of the U.S. debt ceiling rising to $40 trillion, with projections to $50 trillion, tying it to the Ukraine war funding.* Social Media Arguments: StwrongOne recounts debating former college and high school friends who support the war, challenging their willingness to send their own kids or money.* Political Hypocrisy: Critique of both parties, noting Republicans like Lindsey Graham and Mitt Romney allegedly taking Ukrainian money alongside Democrats.* Perspective: Emphasis on principles over party loyalty, advocating for peace and fiscal responsibility.* Notable Quote: "We're how many trillions of dollars in debt right now? 36... Going on 37." (00:14:27)Segment 3: Andrew Tate and Cultural Critique (01:26:50 - 01:37:39)* Main Topic: The hosts discuss Andrew Tate's arrival in America and his influence on young men.* Key Points:* Tate is criticized as a "whoremonger" promoting a lifestyle of avoiding marriage and having multiple "baby mamas," compared to figures like Elon Musk and Sean Kemp.* Rejection of Tate's philosophy as antithetical to biblical masculinity and conservative Christian values.* Assurance that young men are shifting toward conservative Christian ideals, not Tate's ideology, countering evangelical fears of his influence.* Tone: Passionate and dismissive, with a mix of humor and moral conviction.* Notable Quotes:* "If someone's telling you that being a whoremonger is based and being a committed married man is gay, you're an effing retard." (01:29:04)* "The people that are influenced by Andrew Tate aren't going to reproduce and push more values." (01:32:25)Segment 4: Courage and Biblical Boldness (01:37:39 - 01:47:06)* Guest Reference: Discussion inspired by Ernst Roets' appearance on Tucker Carlson, referencing the Odyssey's Scylla and Charybdis.* Key Points:* Courage is framed as a balance between cowardice and recklessness, with a preference for erring on the side of boldness when motivated by faith.* Biblical examples: David vs. Goliath, Jonathan's mountain attack, Israelites at Jericho, and David's Mighty Men fighting "lion men."* Call to action: Christians should be reckless for God's glory, not personal gain, contrasting with cultural cowardice.* Tone: Inspirational and scriptural, urging listeners to act boldly.* Notable Quote: "Cowardice got us where we are... Let's err on the side of recklessness." (01:46:47)Segment 5: UK Freedom of Speech and Final Thoughts (01:47:06 - 01:53:50)* Main Topic: The hosts address declining U.S. tourism to the UK due to strict social media scrutiny.* Key Points:* UK requires social media logins for visas, arresting Americans for past posts, leading some to delete accounts entirely.* Comparison to other nations: Canada, Germany, and the UK lack U.S.-style free speech; Mexico is freer due to apathy.* Encouragement to expose this issue and maintain faith despite global oppression.* Closing Prayer: A heartfelt prayer thanking God for U.S. freedoms and asking for strength to proclaim faith boldly.* Notable Quotes:* "The only country in the entire world that has a constitutional amendment that says we can say and think what we want is the United States." (01:50:00)* "Don't be astonished by the stupidity because it's going to happen because we live in a fallen and depraved world." (01:52:21)Outro (01:53:24 - 01:53:50)* Sign-Off: The hosts wrap up, encouraging listeners to like, share, and subscribe, reinforcing their mission to serve "the King of Kings, Christ Jesus."* Tagline: "Where the people are free, the taxes are voluntary, and your two kings serve the King of Kings."

The Holy Father has proclaimed 2025 as a Jubilee year, and pilgrims are already flocking to Rome to cross the thresholds of the major basilicas, and to visit the tombs of Sts. Peter and Paul. Original host of the Way of the Fathers podcast, Mike Aquilina, and current host of the podcast, James L. Papandrea, talk about jubilee and pilgrimage, and introduce listeners to the first (of hopefully many) Way of the Fathers pilgrimage. If you're interested in going on pilgrimage to Sicily, December 1-11, 2025, with Mike, and Jim, and Fr. Kevin Barrett, you can find more information at this link:    https://www.206tours.com/cms/stpaulcenter/aquilina/   Why Sicily?    “Sicily,” said Goethe, “is the key to everything.” It was the site where Plato imagined his perfect republic. Sicily gave Rome its first taste of Empire. Homer set much of his Odyssey in Sicily: Scylla and Charybdis, the forge of Hephaestus … It's the land of the Cyclops, the place where Icarus hit the ground when his wings began to melt. St. Paul spent three days there. For St. Augustine it was a land of wonders — a mountain that burned always and was not consumed. For St. Basil it was a synonym for luxury. Sicily was the definition of Hellenic. It was profoundly Latin. It was the land that gave the Church its Greek popes. It was the land that gave the Church its virgin-martyrs, Agatha and Lucy. For those who suffer ailments of the eye or breast, it is a pilgrim destination. It's Byzantine. It's Roman. It's Phoenician and African. It's stubbornly Christian through years of Muslim rule. It's Norman. It's Spanish. It's stunningly beautiful. The food is amazing. It's where the Godfather movies were filmed. In December it will be warm there and offer unusual wares and delights for Christmas shoppers. Consider joining Catholic author Mike Aquilina, historian James L. Papandrea, and Fr. Kevin Barrett on a unique pilgrimage, co-sponsored by the St. Paul Center for Biblical Theology, 206 Tours, and the Apostolate for Family Consecration.

Subscribe, Rate, & Review on YouTube • Spotify • Apple PodcastsWhen technology gets byzantine, when the heady early years of cybernetic mysticism give way and our software engineers become the new priests of the Catholic institutions of Big Tech, maybe we can learn a thing or two from a Byzantine Catholic who's made Responsible Technology their life. This week's guest is just that person. Benjamin Olsen is the Head of Windows Responsible AI & Data Compliance at Microsoft, where he also pioneered their first AI & Ethics education programs. He's also an advisor for AI and Faith and has worked as co-chair of the World Economic Forum's Responsible Learning & Education program and member of their Responsible Development and Deployment of Technology steering committee; the former Responsible Innovation Lead at Meta; and a part of the IEEE's working group on Responsible AI. His online courses in Analytics, Data Science, and Responsible Technology have been taken by millions of students in more than 120 countries.But it's his writing at the intersection of religion, spirituality, technology, and human flourishing that caught my eye. I met Ben through Andrew Dunn of the School of Wise Innovation, where I was on the faculty for a course on Embodied Ethics in The Age of AI with Josh Schrei, and was immediately taken by the clarity and heart he brings to places I have always guessed were, frankly, soulless. Speaking with him gave me hope that maybe all this hype is actually the evidence of earnest and concerted effort — in some corners, anyway — to do the future right and not just big. I hope that you enjoy your conversation.Links“The Inner Life of Responsible Innovation” by Benjamin Olsen“Monsters and Moderation in Respsonbile AI” by Benjamin Olsen“Super-responsible AI” by Benjamin Olsen“Mission Impossible: Perfectly Responsible AI” by Benjamin OlsenLearn more about this project and read the essays so far (1, 2, 3, 4).Make tax-deductible donations to Humans On The LoopBrowse my reading list and support local booksellersJoin the Holistic Technology & Wise Innovation Discord serverJoin the private Future Fossils Facebook groupHire me for consulting or advisory workChapters0:00:00 – Teaser Quote0:01:34 – Episode Intro0:03:58 – Introducing Benjamin Olsen0:08:20 – Toward Omni-considerate Corporate Ethics0:17:18 – Practicing Super-responsibility0:27:32 – Between The Scylla of Censorship and The Charybdis of Underblocking0:36:26 – Doing The Lord's Work inside The Leviathan0:43:09 – Consent between Company & Customer0:54:07 – How Do We Exercise Agency Within Social Constraints?0:58:10 – Who Does Benjamin Recommend?1:00:21 – Closing RemarksMentions* Yolanda Gil* Kevin Kelly* Martin Luther King Jr.* Henry David Thoreau* William Gibson* Stafford Beer* James P.

We're nearing the last leg of Odysseus' journey, and he's really caught between a rock and a hard place. Between the devil and the deep blue sea. Between...well, between Scylla and Charybdis. After a dramatic turning point among the dead, Odysseus is now faced with what he says is the saddest and most pitiable horror he has ever seen on all his suffering journeys across the sea.

Dcn. Harrison Garlick and Adam Minihan discuss Book Twelve of the Odyssey: The Cattle of the Sun.Check out more at thegreatbookspodcast.com.From our guide:68. What happens in book twelve?Odysseus and his men return the island of Circe and bury their comrade, Elpenor, who had spoken to Odysseus from the underworld (12.10). Circe tells Odyssey—and Odysseus alone—what trials await him on his journey (12.36). First, he and his men will sail by the Sirens and their irresistible song of temptation (12.44). Next, Odysseus will have to choose between sailing through the path of unavoidable “Clashing Rocks” (12.66) or sail through a strait with two monsters. On one side, there is the six-headed horror named Scylla that will pluck men off the ship (12.94) and on the other side the whirlpool monster named Charybdis that will swallow the entire ship (12.115). Lastly, they will come to the island of the where the sun god's cattle graze (12.137) and must not under any circumstances harm the cattle (12.148). If they can do this, they will return home, but if not, then the best that could happen is Odysseus returns home alone “all shipmates lost… a broken man” (12.153).Odysseus tells his men about the Sirens (12.172) and Charybdis (12.239) but not Scylla (12.242). After escaping the Sirens, his men are navigating past Charybdis when Scylla snatches six of Odysseus men off his ship (12.269). Odysseus and his men land on the island of the sun god's cattle, and Odysseus has his men swear an oath they will not harm the animals (12.328). The men, however, become stranded on the island due to unfavorable wind and begin to starve (12.350). Odysseus' men elect to eat the sacred cattle (12.386), and, as they finally leave the island, Zeus strikes the ship with a lightning bolt (12.447). All perish save Odysseus who, clinging to debris, is swept back to Charybdis and must hang onto a fig tree to avoid being swallowed (12.466). The book ends with Odysseus drifting until he lands on the island of Calypso (12.485). 69. Who are the Sirens?The sirens are “female creatures who had the power of drawing men to destruction by their song.”[1] Though Homer does not describe them, they were generally “represented as half-woman and half-bird”—but “in time they came increasingly to be shown as beautiful women.”[2] Odysseus follows Circe's advice (12.53) by stuffing beeswax in the ears of his men (12.189). It is notable that Circe intuits that Odysseus will want to experience the song of the Sirens (12.55). He follows her advice and has his men tie him to the mast in order that he may hear the Sirens but not jump overboard (12.194). The episode speaks to what Odysseus' spirit (thumos) is willing to endure for the sake of knowledge. Note the Siren's song itself sings of being able to grant Odysseus wisdom and make him a “wiser man” (12.200).One may also question whether Odysseus enduring the song of the Sirens prepared him at all to decline Calypso's offer of immortality or the marriage to Nausicaa. Moreover, the episode shows a level of trust between Odysseus and his men—a trust that is arguably fracturing after the Cyclops incident and one that will be largely broken following Scylla and Charybdis. Later myths have the Sirens drowning themselves due to Odysseus' escape.[3] The Sirens will later come to represent music, including the...

Navigating the Scylla and Charybdis of Full ET Disclosure – Jelaila Starr According to the galactic history revealed by a feline extraterrestrial called Devon, Jelaila Starr says that Earth is the third in a series of “grand experiments.” These grand experiments are attempts by human civilizations to learn about empathy, accepting diversity, and respecting their biosphere. In contrast, Reptilian races have the primary role of protecting the biosphere of a planet from parasitic and out-of-control civilizations. This has led to conflict between human and Reptilian civilizations, which she describes as the polarity-integration game.  Starr says that the first two grand experiments occurred in the Lyra and Pleiades star systems, and ended in devastating nuclear wars. The first Grand Experiment occurred in the Lyra star system and began when Reptilian species showed up and began sharing advanced technologies with planetary leaders who made up the Royal House of Avyon. Starr claims the Avyon leaders did not disclose the truth about the Reptilian visitors and advanced technologies to the planetary population, and this led to growing civil strife over an extended period of time and eventually nuclear war. Survivors fled the Lyran star system for many worlds in other star systems including the Pleiades, where the second grand experiment began, again under the leadership of the House of Avyon. Starr says that Reptilians created sophisticated AI life forms that were self-replicating and eventually rebelled against their creators. This led to devastating galactic wars and alliances. Starr refers to the alliance reached between AI lifeforms the Android Andromedan Alliance. Eventually, this AI alliance showed up in the Pleiades system and were human-looking, and began interacting with the second grand experiment. The Android Andromedan Alliance began working with the House of Avyon who were interested in the former's advanced technology. Eventually, the truth was disclosed about the AI life forms and the agreements in an uncontrolled catastrophic way, and this led to another round of civil strife and nuclear wars that destroyed the second grand experiment. Starr claims that Earth is the third grand experiment and many starseeds are survivors of the first two grand experiments that have reincarnated on Earth. She emphasizes that full disclosure needs to happen in a way that is neither too slow nor too fast, as both extremes have the capacity to destabilize and destroy a civilization. She describes “white hat” planetary leaders being aware of the Scylla and Charybdis of Full Disclosure and are steering the disclosure process forward behind the scenes in a balanced manner. In her second Exopolitics Today interview, Starr describes the pitfalls awaiting humanity concerning the full disclosure of visiting extraterrestrial species and the deceptive practices of AI synthetic entities that will show up as angelic human-looking beings presenting high-tech gifts such as medbeds and free energy devices to the general public. She claims that genuinely positive extraterrestrials would never show up bearing such gifts as this would violate the Prime Directive. Instead, positive ET beings would work behind the scenes to help governments and planetary leaders develop such technologies on their own and presenting these to the public when society is ready. Starr describes how to discern between synthetic beings from the Android Andromedan Alliance and genuine human-looking extraterrestrials, and what to expect in the aftermath of the upcoming 2024 US Presidential election. Jelaila Starr's website: https://nibiruancouncil.com --------------------------------------------------------- Portuguese De acordo com a história galáctica revelada por um extraterrestre felino chamado Devon, Jelaila Starr diz que a Terra é o terceiro de uma série de "grandes experimentos". Esses grandes experimentos são tentativas de civilizações humanas de aprender sobre empatia, aceitar a diversidade e respeitar sua biosfera. Em contraste, as raças reptilianas têm o papel principal de proteger a biosfera de um planeta de civilizações parasitárias e fora de controle. Isso levou ao conflito entre civilizações humanas e reptilianas, que ela descreve como o jogo de integração de polaridade. Starr diz que os dois primeiros grandes experimentos ocorreram nos sistemas estelares de Lyra e Plêiades e terminaram em guerras nucleares devastadoras. O primeiro Grande Experimento ocorreu no sistema estelar de Lyra e começou quando espécies reptilianas apareceram e começaram a compartilhar tecnologias avançadas com líderes planetários que compunham a Casa Real de Avyon. Starr afirma que os líderes de Avyon não revelaram a verdade sobre os visitantes reptilianos e tecnologias avançadas para a população planetária, e isso levou a um crescente conflito civil por um longo período de tempo e, eventualmente, a uma guerra nuclear. Os sobreviventes fugiram do sistema estelar Lyriano para muitos mundos em outros sistemas estelares, incluindo as Plêiades, onde o segundo grande experimento começou, novamente sob a liderança da Casa de Avyon. Starr diz que os reptilianos criaram formas de vida de IA sofisticadas que eram auto-replicantes e, eventualmente, se rebelaram contra seus criadores. Isso levou a guerras galácticas devastadoras e alianças. Starr se refere à aliança alcançada entre as formas de vida de IA, a Aliança Andrômeda Androide. Eventualmente, essa aliança de IA apareceu no sistema das Plêiades e tinha aparência humana, e começou a interagir com o segundo grande experimento. A Aliança Andrômeda Androide começou a trabalhar com a Casa de Avyon, que estava interessada na tecnologia avançada da primeira. Eventualmente, a verdade foi revelada sobre as formas de vida da IA ​​e os acordos de uma forma catastrófica descontrolada, e isso levou a outra rodada de conflitos civis e guerras nucleares que destruíram o segundo grande experimento. Starr afirma que a Terra é o terceiro grande experimento e muitas sementes estelares são sobreviventes dos dois primeiros grandes experimentos que reencarnaram na Terra. Ela enfatiza que a revelação completa precisa acontecer de uma forma que não seja nem muito lenta nem muito rápida, pois ambos os extremos têm a capacidade de desestabilizar e destruir uma civilização. Ela descreve os líderes planetários "white hat" cientes da Cila e Caríbdis da Divulgação Completa e estão conduzindo o processo de divulgação adiante nos bastidores de uma maneira equilibrada. Em sua segunda entrevista para a Exopolitics Today, Starr descreve as armadilhas que aguardam a humanidade em relação à revelação completa de espécies extraterrestres visitantes e as práticas enganosas de entidades sintéticas de IA que aparecerão como seres angelicais de aparência humana apresentando presentes de alta tecnologia, como leitos médicos e dispositivos de energia gratuita para o público em geral. Ela afirma que extraterrestres genuinamente positivos nunca apareceriam carregando tais presentes, pois isso violaria a Primeira Diretriz. Em vez disso, seres ET positivos trabalhariam nos bastidores para ajudar governos e líderes planetários a desenvolver tais tecnologias por conta própria e apresentá-las ao público quando a sociedade estiver pronta. Starr descreve como discernir entre seres sintéticos da Aliança Andrômeda Android e extraterrestres de aparência humana genuína, e o que esperar após a próxima eleição presidencial dos EUA em 2024.

According to the galactic history revealed by a feline extraterrestrial called Devon, Jelaila Starr says that Earth is the third in a series of “grand experiments.” These grand experiments are attempts by human civilizations to learn about empathy, accepting diversity, and respecting their biosphere. In contrast, Reptilian races have the primary role of protecting the biosphere of a planet from parasitic and out-of-control civilizations. This has led to conflict between human and Reptilian civilizations, which she describes as the polarity-integration game.  Starr says that the first two grand experiments occurred in the Lyra and Pleiades star systems, and ended in devastating nuclear wars. The first Grand Experiment occurred in the Lyra star system and began when Reptilian species showed up and began sharing advanced technologies with planetary leaders who made up the Royal House of Avyon. Starr claims the Avyon leaders did not disclose the truth about the Reptilian visitors and advanced technologies to the planetary population, and this led to growing civil strife over an extended period of time and eventually nuclear war. Survivors fled the Lyran star system for many worlds in other star systems including the Pleiades, where the second grand experiment began, again under the leadership of the House of Avyon. Starr says that Reptilians created sophisticated AI life forms that were self-replicating and eventually rebelled against their creators. This led to devastating galactic wars and alliances. Starr refers to the alliance reached between AI lifeforms the Android Andromedan Alliance. Eventually, this AI alliance showed up in the Pleiades system and were human-looking, and began interacting with the second grand experiment. The Android Andromedan Alliance began working with the House of Avyon who were interested in the former's advanced technology. Eventually, the truth was disclosed about the AI life forms and the agreements in an uncontrolled catastrophic way, and this led to another round of civil strife and nuclear wars that destroyed the second grand experiment. Starr claims that Earth is the third grand experiment and many starseeds are survivors of the first two grand experiments that have reincarnated on Earth. She emphasizes that full disclosure needs to happen in a way that is neither too slow nor too fast, as both extremes have the capacity to destabilize and destroy a civilization. She describes “white hat” planetary leaders being aware of the Scylla and Charybdis of Full Disclosure and are steering the disclosure process forward behind the scenes in a balanced manner. In her second Exopolitics Today interview, Starr describes the pitfalls awaiting humanity concerning the full disclosure of visiting extraterrestrial species and the deceptive practices of AI synthetic entities that will show up as angelic human-looking beings presenting high-tech gifts such as medbeds and free energy devices to the general public. She claims that genuinely positive extraterrestrials would never show up bearing such gifts as this would violate the Prime Directive. Instead, positive ET beings would work behind the scenes to help governments and planetary leaders develop such technologies on their own and presenting these to the public when society is ready. Starr describes how to discern between synthetic beings from the Android Andromedan Alliance and genuine human-looking extraterrestrials, and what to expect in the aftermath of the upcoming 2024 US Presidential election.

"Tell me, Muse, the story of that resourceful man who was driven to wander far and wide after he had sacked Troy. He saw the cities of many people and he learnt their ways. Tell us this story, goddess daughter of Zeus, beginning at whatever point you will." So begins Homer's epic The Odyssey, the story of the titular hero Odysseus' long, long, LONG journey from the ruins of Troy to his home of Ithaca. Just as Odysseus set out from Troy, so do Michael and Josh begin an "odyssey" of their own.

Few people are better equipped to unravel the riddle of the Indian economy than the former Governor of the Reserve Bank of India, Raghuram Rajan. As the co-author (with Rohit Lamba) of the just published Breaking the Mold: India's Untraveled Path to Prosperity, Rajan lays out a strategy for Indian economic development that might allow the country to both maintain its much storied democracy and provide jobs and prosperity for its almost 1.5 billion people. While Rajan didn't use the term “third way” in our conversation, there is a sense that he's trying to navigate India between the Scylla of conventional western free market neo-liberalism and the Charybdis of the protectionism pursued by populists like Trump, Erdogen and perhaps the current Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Certainly no great fan of Modi's bureaucratic centralization, Rajan's path to prosperity lies in decentralizing economic power to its federal states. It's in the enlightened economic policies of states like Kerala, Rajan argues, that India can break the mold and become not just a prosperous society but also a model for other developing 21st century economies. Raghuram Rajan is the Katherine Dusak Miller Distinguished Service Professor of Finance at the University of Chicago business school. He was the 23rd Governor of the Reserve Bank of India between September 2013 and September 2016. Between 2003 and 2006, Dr. Rajan was the Chief Economist and Director of Research at the International Monetary Fund. Dr. Rajan's research interests are in banking, corporate finance, and economic development. The books he has written include Breaking the Mold: Reimagining India's Economic Future with Rohit Lamba, The Third Pillar: How the State and Markets hold the Community Behind 2019 which was a finalist for the Financial Times Business Book of the Year prize and Fault Lines: How Hidden Fractures Still Threaten the World Economy, for which he was awarded the Financial Times prize for Business Book of the Year in 2010. Dr. Rajan is a member of the Group of Thirty. He was the President of the American Finance Association in 2011 and is a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. In January 2003, the American Finance Association awarded Dr. Rajan the inaugural Fischer Black Prize for the best finance researcher under the age of 40. The other awards he has received include the Infosys prize for the Economic Sciences in 2012, the Deutsche Bank Prize for Financial Economics in 2013, Euromoney Central Banker Governor of the Year 2014, and Banker Magazine (FT Group) Central Bank Governor of the Year 2016. Dr. Rajan is the Chairman of the Per Jacobsson Foundation, the senior economic advisor to BDT Capital, and a managing director at Andersen Tax.Named as one of the "100 most connected men" by GQ magazine, Andrew Keen is amongst the world's best known broadcasters and commentators.

Synchronicity would be the most commercially successful, fifth, and final studio album from the Police.  The trio of percussionist Stewart Copeland, guitarist Andy Summers, and bassist and front man Sting would be known as “The Biggest Band in the World” after the release of this album but would never produce a studio album again.Like “Ghost in the Machine,” the Police's previous album, Synchronicity drew its name from the works of Artheur Koestler, an author of whom Sting was an avid reader.  Unlike that album, Synchronicity toned down both the reggae influences and the overdubbing.  The resulting album increased the use of synthesizers and utilized a sequencer for the first time.  It also drew on world music influences on several songs.  The album hit number 1 on the Billboard 200 album charts in late July and would spend 17 total weeks at the number one position on the chart, an achievement that meant it had to interrupt the reign of Michael Jackson's Thriller.  It would also produce the number 1 song of the year with “Every Breath You Take.”  Sting was beginning both his solo work and becoming more involved with film at the time, and between this and contentious egos of the members, the Police would not record another album after this.  An attempt was made at a sixth studio album, but Stewart Copeland broke his collarbone just before they entered the studio and progression to the album was scuttled.Lynch features this iconic trio at the height of the Second British Invasion for this week's podcast.  Friend of the show Bill Cook sits in for Bruce in this episode. King of PainSting wrote this second US single from the album when considering the effects of his separation from his wife.  The psychological effects are inspired by thoughts from Carl Jung and Arthur Koestler.  It went to number 3 on the Billboard Hot 100.Synchronicity IIThe final song on the first side of the album went to number 16 on the US charts as a single.  The lyrics toggle between a man's increasing anxiety and paranoia and the symbolic rise of the Loch Ness Monster in parallel.  "and every single meeting with his so-called superior is a humiliating kick in the crotch."Wrapped Around Your FingerThe fourth US single was written by Sting as a dark song about turning the tables on someone who had been in charge of your life.  There is a Faustian feel in the lyrics, which also feature references to Greek mythology like Scylla and Charybdis - from which we derive idioms like "between a rock and a hard place," and "between the Devil and the deep blue sea."Every Breath You TakeDespite its beautiful music, this single is actually quite dark in its obsessive and controlling lyrics.  Sting wrote the song after his separation from his wife and the beginning of a new relationship.  The lyrics came to him in the middle of the night, and he wrote the song on piano in a half hour.  It would be biggest commercial single he ever wrote, hitting number 1 on the US charts for 8 weeks, and becoming the best selling single of 1983.  Interestingly, it was the only number 1 hit by the Police. ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Stayin' Alive by the Bee Gees (from the motion picture "Staying Alive") John Travolta starred in this sequel to the 70's Disco hit "Saturday Night Fever."  It was directed by Sylvester Stallone. STAFF PICKS:Our House by MadnessWayne brings us a group from Northern London that was a bigger hit in the UK than the US.  It has a lot going on musically between the piano, violins and saxophone.  Lyrically it hearkens back to childhood days, slices of mundane domestic life in England.  Madness performed this song as a part of the closing ceremonies for the 2012 OlympicsBig Log by Robert PlantRob's staff pick is the first hit for Plant as a solo artist.  As he often did in Led Zeppelin, the title of the song does not appear in the lyrics.  It was written in the middle of winter, and the artists had run out of fuel for the fire.  They found a large tree trunk and burned one end of it in the fireplace, pushing the "big log" in as it burned.  Drum programming was provided by Phil Collins. Rock and Roll is King by ELOBill Cook features the Electric Light Orchestra in a 50's rhythm and blues throwback that would be their last top 20 hit.  It was written by Jeff Lynne for their album "Secret Messages."  Electric Avenue by Eddie GrantLynch closes out the staff picks with a song time stamped in the early 80's.  It was inspired by an area of Brixton, South London, called Electric Avenue because it was the first area of the city to be lit by electricity.  Guyanese-British singer-songwriter Eddie Grant sings about the tension of unemployment and racism experienced by the primarily Caribbean immigrants who lived there at the time.   INSTRUMENTAL TRACK:An Ending by Brian EnoBrian Eno wrote this instrumental piece in 1983 for the documentary "For All Mankind." 

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: The Shortest Path Between Scylla and Charybdis, published by Thane Ruthenis on December 18, 2023 on The AI Alignment Forum. tl;dr: There's two diametrically opposed failure modes an alignment researcher can fall into: engaging in excessively concrete research whose findings won't timely generalize to AGI, and engaging in excessively abstract research whose findings won't timely connect to the practical reality. Different people's assessments of what research is too abstract/concrete differ significantly based on their personal AI-Risk models. One person's too-abstract can be another's too-concrete. The meta-level problem of alignment research is to pick a research direction that, on your subjective model of AI Risk, strikes a good balance between the two - and thereby arrives at the solution to alignment in as few steps as possible. Introduction Suppose that you're interested in solving AGI Alignment. There's a dizzying plethora of approaches to choose from: What behavioral properties do the current-best AIs exhibit? Can we already augment our research efforts with the AIs that exist today? How far can "straightforward" alignment techniques like RLHF get us? Can an AGI be born out of an AutoGPT-like setup? Would our ability to see its externalized monologue suffice for nullifying its dangers? Can we make AIs-aligning-AIs work? What are the mechanisms by which the current-best AIs function? How can we precisely intervene on their cognition in order to steer them? What are the remaining challenges of scalable interpretability, and how can they be defeated? What features do agenty systems convergently learn when subjected to selection pressures? Is there such a thing as "natural abstractions"? How do we learn them? What is the type signature of embedded agents and their values? What about the formal description of corrigibility? What is the "correct" decision theory that an AGI would follow? And what's up with anthropic reasoning? Et cetera, et cetera. So... How the hell do you pick what to work on? The starting point, of course, would be building up your own model of the problem. What's the nature of the threat? What's known about how ML models work? What's known about agents, and cognition? How does any of that relate to the threat? What are all extant approaches? What's each approach's theory-of-impact? What model of AI Risk does it assume? Does it agree with your model? Is it convincing? Is it tractable? Once you've done that, you'll likely have eliminated a few approaches as obvious nonsense. But even afterwards, there might still be multiple avenues left that all seem convincing. How do you pick between those? Personal fit might be one criterion. Choose the approach that best suits your skills and inclinations and opportunities. But that's risky: if you make a mistake, and end up working on something irrelevant just because it suits you better, you'll have multiplied your real-world impact by zero. Conversely, contributing to a tractable approach would be net-positive, even if you'd be working at a disadvantage. And who knows, maybe you'll find that re-specializing is surprisingly easy! So what further objective criteria can you evaluate? Regardless of one's model of AI Risk, there's two specific, diametrically opposed failure modes that any alignment researcher can fall into: being too concrete, and being too abstract. The approach to choose should be one that maximizes the distance from both failure modes. The Scylla: Atheoretic Empiricism One pitfall would be engaging in research that doesn't generalize to aligning AGI. An ad-absurdum example: You pick some specific LLM model, then start exhaustively investigating how it responds to different prompts, and what quirks it has. You're building giant look-up tables of "query, response", with no overarching structur...

More than 3,000 years ago, between the 12th and 13th centuries BC, the legendary king of Ithaca, Odysseus, set sail from the ancient city of Troy to begin the journey home. The stories of the Trojan War, and of Odysseus's voyage home, have been passed down to us in the form of epic poetry from Homer. Most of it is pure fiction. But like modern film, TV, and ‘true crime' podcasts that abuse dramatic license to entertain their audiences, Homer's epics may in fact be “based on a true story”. The Trojan War, for example, likely happened. The bit about the horse, on the other hand, probably didn't. It's certainly possible (and even probably) that one of the key leaders in the war had an arduous journey back home to Greece, spurring ancient entertainers to weave elaborate tales of sirens and sea monsters. One of the most important parables in Homer's tale of the long journey home for Odysseus is the story of Scylla and Charybdis. Odysseus's journey took him through a particularly narrow stretch of sea; on one side of the strait was a small, rocky island where a six-headed monster named Scylla lay waiting to destroy any ship that dared to pass. According to Homer, Scylla was such a dreadful monster that “no one-- not even a god-- could face her without being terror-struck.” But on the other side of the narrow strait was the deadly whirlpool of Charybdis, which would swallow up the entire vessel and all the men on it. Odysseus's impossible task, of course, was to swiftly and stealthily sail right down the middle… to just barely avoid the whirlpool of Charybdis, while somehow managing to avoid the long grasp of Scylla. For a while, Odysseus refused to believe the situation was hopeless; he was convinced that he would be able to sail, unscathed, between Scylla and Charybdis without a single loss. After all, he was a king. And an unparalleled expert when it came to sailing. Surely he would be able to succeed. And yet everyone who had ever come before Odysseus had believed the same thing. But no one had ever succeeded. Literally every ship that ever tried to sail between Scylla and Charybdis had been destroyed by one of the two evils. Eventually reality set in, and Odysseus knew that had would have to choose between the lesser of the two evils. He chose the monster Scylla. Odyssesus realized that sailing too close to the whirlpool would mean losing his entire ship and everyone on it. Sailing too close to the 6-headed monster would mean losing, at most, six men. Odysseus concluded that it was better to lose six men was than to lose everyone. And that's precisely what happened; as his ship sailed through the strait, just barely avoiding the whirlpool, “Scylla pounced down suddenly upon us and snatched up six of my best men.” But the rest of the crew (and the ship) survived the challenge and passed through the strait. This story is one of the best allegories of the state of the global economy today. Central bankers and economic policymakers are like Odysseus. They have managed to sail the global economy into a very narrow strait. On one side of today's economic strait is the evil inflation monster. And this monster is guaranteed to chew up and spit out incalculable quantities of unsuspecting, unprepared people. Yet on the other side of the economic strait is the full-blown collapse of the sovereign bond markets… and by extension, collapse of the global financial system. Like Odysseus, central bankers were at first in denial. They didn't want to believe they were even in such dire economic straits. They infamously rejected the notion that inflation existed at all. Then they claimed it was transitory. Then they finally started trying to do something about it-- to turn the ship around. But it was too little, too late. Now they find themselves squarely in the middle of these evils-- inflation, and collapse of the sovereign bond market.
