The next big event has been announced and is being readied as you read this. See www.hbikairos.com
Kairos is an ancient Greek word meaning the right or opportune moment (the supreme moment). The ancient Greeks had two words for time, chronos and kairos. While the former refers to chronological or sequential time, the latter signifies a time in between, a moment of undetermined period of time in which something special happens.
I just finished reading “The Alexandria Project” (1983) by Stephen Schwartz.
It’s a great read about how archeology research was assisted by psychics.
My favorite quote:
“… the statements that psychics basically cannot exist, based on what we understand of the universe, and that therefore there must be some other explanation, really have reached a point where they say more about the critics than the research they are critisizing.”
On November 28th, after an investigation The New York Times published an article about how an internet seller used threats and intimidation to generate negative comments on the internet about him and raise his Google ranking. This is also a story about how we are evolving into the information age. The information age will have profound affects on spirituality around the world.
On December 1, Google took notice and changed the way they rank websites so negative reviews wouldn’t raise someone’s profile.

We were horrified to read about Ms. Rodriguez’s dreadful experience. Even though our initial analysis pointed to this being an edge case and not a widespread problem in our search results, we immediately convened a team that looked carefully at the issue. That team developed an initial algorithmic solution, implemented it, and the solution is already live. I am here to tell you that being bad is, and hopefully will always be, bad for business in Google’s search results.
And now on December 7th, the authorities are taking notice and the abusive seller was arrested.

Finally the study is released that begins to change the minds of science:
According to today’s conventional scientific wisdom, time flows strictly forward — from the past to the future through the present. We can remember the past, and we can predict the future based on the past (albeit imperfectly) — but we can’t perceive the future.
But if the recent data from the lab of Prof. Daryl Bem at Cornell University is correct, conventional scientific wisdom may need some corrections on this particular point.
In a research paper titled Feeling the Future, recently accepted for publication in the prestigious Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, Bem presents some rather compelling empirical evidence that in some cases — and with weak but highly statistically significant accuracy – many human beings can directly perceive the future. Not just predict it based on the past.
A pre-publication copy of Bem’s paper is available on his website, and it should appear on the journal’s website shortly. The article is already attracting considerable attention, including a piece in Psychology Today. Also, Bem reports that he has already received hundreds of requests for “replication packages” — documentation and software allowing others to repeat the experiments he did. If you want to try to replicate the work yourself, replication packages for some of the experiments are already available at http://dbem.ws/psistuff .

One thing that stuck out for me in the article was that most of the objects to precognition had to due with the physics of time without serious considerations of other phenomenon. A better explanation (and the reason that the results only showed 51-53.1% success rate) is that the experimentee is tapping the Gaia mind, the Gaia mind is using it’s vast computing power to calculate the probably outcome. It is a measure of the randomness of the computer to be random and a measure of the person to tap that collective predictive power.
