?Secret Swami? (Late) Sai Baba: Vast Millions In Hoard Found Hidden In His
2011-06-18 01:27:00 Yesterday, I blogged on an email we received from an Indian correspondent long known to us, and included a number of links to the last 24 hours or so of Indian press reportage of the huge stash of money and valuables secreted in Sathya Sai Baba's palatial private quarters. See: Sathya Sai Baba?s Residence Unlocked. Vast Treasury Uncovered. In the last two days, the Indian media has just tapped a treasury of potent news to shake up and down in its headlines. Of course, making up for lost time in factual reportage on Sathya Sai Baba is out of the question; for it has an extremely poor record of almost all sections in publishing critically on Sathya Sai Baba. But now - not least at a time when many Sai Baba devotees are starting to speak out and ask accountability and transparency questions - the Indian media can hardly fail to report properly on matters such as the huge treasure hoard just opened up, many unanswered questions about the circumstances of Sai Baba's illness and death...

Millions of Americans are still waiting for assistance from Congress.

Sathya Sai Baba Birthday, 2009. Where have all the ?millions? Gone?
2009-11-28 11:53:00 Robert Priddy has written of the highly exaggerated crowd numbers attending Puttaparthi occasions, such as Sathya Sai Baba's birthday celebrations. Of his and my dear friend, the late celebrated Indian newspaper Editor, V.K. Narasimhan and some others, Priddy, former co-founder and leader of the Norwegian Sathya Sai Organization, writes: "The estimated numbers of persons during each of these celebrations was doubtless much in excess of the actual numbers. Figures of from 1 to 3 million have been suggested for the various birthdays!Sathya Sai Baba stated to several persons (Robert and Rita Bruce, V.K. Narasimhan and others) that 3 million were present, which was a total impossibility. V.K.N. told me several times that Sathya Sai Baba regularly multiplied numbers of actual visitors by 10!" -------------------------------------------------------------------- Express News Service.

The WHO will instead now refer to the Smithfield's Swine Flu Virus as H1N1 influenza A.

An Easy Way to Raise the IQ's of 100's of Millions
2008-11-30 05:51:00 Get rid of iodine deficiency. Amazingly, even moderate iodine deficiency causes IQ declines of 10-15 pts if it's in a pregnant woman or an infant. It looks like Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, India, Ethiopia, Sudan, Guinea, Senegal and Sierra Leone all have moderate to severe deficiency.It would be interesting to see a better rundown of the severity of the deficiency in each place so we could figure out how much collective IQ could go up with iodine supplementation. In India, 500 million (50% of the population) get too little iodine, 54 million have goiter (severe deficiency) and 2 million are cretins due to extreme deficiency.Yet another failure of Indian capitalism to provide for the very basics in human needs in India, and one more reason I support the Maoist revolutionaries in that country.Many other nations have mild deficiencies. I don't know what a mild deficiency does to your IQ, if anything. 16% of the world's population has goiters, which are apparently...
