In the 1940s, the physician and natural scientist Dr. Wilhelm Reich claimed discovery of a new form of energy which charged up living organisms and also existed in the open atmosphere and in high vacuum. Reich's laboratory and clinical findings indicated this new energy, which he called the orgone, could be photographed and measured, and had powerful life-positive biological effects. Reich trained other scientists and physicians in his findings, and together they set about applying the inexpensive orgone treatment methods - using a device called the orgone energy accumulator - against various illness, including cancer, with remarkably good results. His published findings shocked the scientific world of his day, however, ultimately leading to numerous smear articles in the popular press, and trumped-up charges by a power-drunk Food and Drug Administration. The FDA "investigation" lead to a court trial of much greater significance than the better-known "Scopes Monkey Trial." Ignoring Reich's evidence and declaring "the orgone energy does not exist," US Courts ordered all his books on the orgone subject to be burned, and banned from further circulation. Reich was also thrown into prison, where he died. His work was nearly forgotten except by a small group of supporters. In this Handbook, former university professor Dr. James DeMeo examines Reich's evidence and reports on his own observations and laboratory experiments, which have repeatedly confirmed the reality of the orgone phenomenon. DeMeo also surveys the observations and experiments of others, including controlled cancer mice experiments, double-blind university studies, and clinical reports from physicians working in private clinics where use of Reich's controversial orgone energy accumulator proceeds today. This Handbook also gives a warning about low-level atomic and electromagnetic radiations, as from nuclear power plants, power-line fields and cell-phones, along with advice on measurement and protection against such toxic energy. Also discussed is the subject of healing waters, or Living Waters from natural hot springs, a form of energy medicine which once was widely used in North America before the rise of the authoritarian MD-hospital system and the powerful federal bureaucracy of the FDA. Dr. DeMeo also gives detailed construction plans for people to build their own orgone energy blankets and accumulators, which are inexpensive and simple to construct, though requiring specific direction as to their materials and environments. This is the Third Revised and Expanded 2010 Edition of the Orgone Accumulator Handbook, nearly 100 pages larger than prior editions and carrying a Foreword by Dr. Eva Reich (the daughter of Dr. Wilhelm Reich), along with many photos, diagrams and charts. It is updated to address new issues about the best materials for orgone accumulator and blanket construction. An Appendix is also included, identifying the similarities of Reich's orgone energy to the cosmic ether and "dark matter" of modern physics. A section is also included providing New Evidence on the Persecution of Reich, along with an extended bibliography, index and many weblinks for added information. It has many new photos and materials extracted from Dr. DeMeo's publications verifying the reality of the orgone energy, and is a "must have" for all those interested in the issue of life-energy, subtle-energy or energy-medicine research. This is an excellent introduction to a major scientific discovery, organized for the educated layperson but with sufficient detail and citations to stimulate the curiosity of the open-minded physician and scientist.

This compendium of 30 different research articles, by an international group of 18 different scientists and scholars, validates and expands upon the subject of Wilhelm Reich's amazing discoveries and related concepts.

Dynastic marriages mattered in early modern Europe: the creation of alliances and the outbreak of wars were tied to continental dynastic politics. Dynastic marriages mattered in early modern Europe. The creation of alliances and the outbreak of wars were tied to continental dynastic politics. This book combines cultural definitions of politics with a wider exploration of institutional, military, diplomatic and economic concerns with a view to providing a more comprehensive understanding of dynastic marriage negotiations. It covers a period from the signing of the Treaty of London in 1604 until afterthe Anglo-French and Anglo-Spanish peace treaties (1629-30). Stuart Marriage Diplomacy explores how the search for a bride for Princes Henry and Charles started a long process of protracted consultations between the key players of Europe: Spain, Italy, France, Rome, Brussels and the United Provinces. It shows the interconnections between these courts, thus advancing a 'continental turn' in the analysis of Stuart politics in the early seventeenth century, and considers how reason of state was often considered as more crucial than religion or economic concerns in the outcome of the Stuart-Habsburg and Stuart-Bourbon marriage negotiations. It also reveals the extent to which the interactions between Europe and non-European actors in both the Atlantic and the East contributed to a redefinition of European identity. It will engage not only scholars and students of early modern Europe but, more generally,those interested in the history of European courts and royalty.

Ancient humans were peaceful - modern violence is avoidable. That's the basic message contained in "Saharasia," a controversial "marriage of heresies" over 10 years in the making. It will change forever your way of looking at the world, your home culture, and current events. Saharasia constitutes a revolutionary new discovery on a geographic pattern to global human behavior as deeply embedded within the scientific literature of anthropology, history and archaeology. It covers issues and events which typically are ignored in the "politically correct" academic environment, even though it was produced within that same environment. Saharasia presents the first cross-cultural, anthropological, archaeological and historical survey of human family and social institutions, tracing human violence back in time to specific times and places of first-origin. Saharasia also presents an additional controversy, given the factual identity of the violence-prone Saharasian region to be the homeland of the Islamo-fascist terror brigades. Saharasia has at several times in human history been the region from which massive armies marched out to conquer those moister regions lying at its periphery: into Europe, China, India and sub-Saharan Africa. These would be the early Indo-Aryan, Kurgan and Battle-Axe warriors, the Scythians and Huns, the Mongols, Turks, and Arab-Muslims, all of whom formed gigantic empires encompassing desert Saharasia and parts of its moister borderlands. While the analysis contained in this book starts around 12,000 BC and ends at around 1900 AD, the suggestion is clear, that the modern problem of global terrorism also springs forth from basic Saharasian-warrior roots. If you really want to know why so much of the world is in such a miserable condition, and to fully understand the current "march to war" within Islamic nations, this book will provide answers. One of the largest and most ambitious scientific and systematic, cross-cultural evaluations of human behavior ever undertaken. Originally a doctoral dissertation undertaken by the author at the University of Kansas, now supplemented with new chapters, and with hundreds of maps and illustrations. "Saharasia" is scarsely known to the wider public, given the controversial conclusions which precipitated from its development. But its findings, made as early as 1980, have been validated repeatedly by subsequent scientific discovery, and by world events. The new edition contains all-new Appendix documentation: "Update on Saharasia"reviewing archaeological evidence suggestive of an ancient period of generally peaceful human social conditions, world-wide.

Prohibido y Quemado por la FDA "La Energia Organica no Existe" declaro un juez de la Corte Federal de Estados Unidos en 1954 basandose en las calumnias de periodistas y de la FDA, ordenando la destruccion de todas las publicaciones que tuvieran la palabra prohibida "orgon." El Dr. Reich fue enviado posteriormente a prision, donde murio. Esto fue un escandalo peor que el juicio "Scopes Monkey Trial" y aun asi los hechos acerca del Dr. Reich continuan siendo ocultados y tergiversados. En este libro, el cientifico naturalista James DeMeo, que fue profesor universitario, extrae, de sus extensas investigaciones personales y experimentos, los hechos mas relevantes acerca de los descubrimientos de Reich, enfocandolos especialmente en el controvertido Acumulador de Energia Orgonica, que es una forma genuina de Medicina Energetica usada en todo el mundo. Aqui el lector aprendera como construir y usar de manera segura las mantas orgonicas y los acumuladores, con detalles de las Aguas Vivas cargadas de orgon procedentes de los manantiales de agua termales y de los balnearios de aguas con propiedades curativas, y muchos otros temas relacionados. Aprendera a concentrar y trabajar con la azul y luminiscente energia (vital) orgonica usando materiales simples y facilmente asequibles, y que la atmosfera constituye una fuente de suministro inagotable. Este libro incluye muchas fotos y diagramas, un articulo de investigacion como apendice, bibliografia, un indice y referencias web.

From the "Introduction" European Emperors, Kings, Kaisers and Tsars, and their Churches, forbade contraception, women's equality and divorce. Baptismal Certificates and class barriers dictated who could legally marry, attend school or the university, advance socially, and who could not. World War I finally swept them from power, but their dictates frequently remained as law, in a turbulent era of struggle for freedom and democracy, versus resurgent fascism and slavery. Hodann's History contains a clear discussion of these historical developments within the sexual reform and women's rights movements of Weimar Germany and Europe generally, in the early decades of the 1900s. The parallel advance of scientific knowledge on human sexuality is also detailed. Unlike many contemporary works on these subjects, History of Modern Morals is authored by a physician who lived the struggle, was a leader in it, got arrested by the Nazis for it, and intimately worked with other professionals who also had personally suffered for their work in the same social-sexual reform movement. His writings are therefore filled with a strong passion and vitality, and with many personal observations, anecdotes, and clarifying information not found elsewhere. Hodann's History is also unique in that he frequently and positively discusses the work of his contemporary and associate, Wilhelm Reich. This is especially important given their life-positive emphasis upon love and emotion in sexuality, and their distinction between natural-healthy heterosexual genitality versus neurotic and unhealthy sexual expressions. In the modern era of "politically correct" moral equivalence, this essential consideration has been diminished or erased from public discussion.

From the "Introduction" Dr. Wilhelm Reich is the man whom nearly everyone loves to hate. No other figure in 20th Century science and medicine could be named who has been so badly maligned in popular media, scientific and medical circles, or so shabbily mistreated by power-drunk federal agencies and arrogant judges. Publicly denounced and slandered in both Europe and America by Nazis, Communists and psychoanalysts, placed on both Hitler's and Stalin's death lists but narrowly escaping to the USA, subjected to new public slanders and attacks by American journalists and psychiatrists who deliberately lied and provoked an "investigation" by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), imprisoned by American courts which ignored his legal writs and pleas about prosecutorial and FDA fraud, denied appeals all the way up to the US Supreme Court, which rubber-stamped the FDA's demands for the banning and burning of his scientific books and research journals, and finally dying alone in prison - who was this man, Wilhelm Reich, and why today, some 50 years after his death, does he continue to stir up such emotional antipathy? It is a literal 80-Years' War of continuing misrepresentation, slander and defamation. Who were and are Reich's attackers? And what stands behind their obsession to utterly rid the world of him, and of his work? What are the facts regarding Reich's social-sexual theories and his experimental work on the orgone energy, or life-energy? Natural scientist and former professor James DeMeo takes on the book-burners, exposing with clarity and documentation their many slanderous fabrications, half-truths and lies of omission. In so doing, he also summarizes the lesser-known facts about Reich's important clinical and life-energetic experimental findings, now verified by scientists and physicians in Europe, the Americas and other nations, which hold great promise for the future.

This is a work of historical significance, an experimental study reproducing parts of the late Dr. Wilhelm Reich's controversial atmospheric research, specifically the technique of Cosmic Orgone Engineering ("cloudbusting"). This study took place in the late 1970s at the University of Kansas, Geography-Meteorology Department, as part of the author's graduate-level research, showing changes in cloud cover and rainfall across the state of Kansas as the apparatus was operated. Reich's original findings had been dismissed as "impossible" by the scientific community of his day, stirring up such outrage that his writings were literally "banned and burned" by Federal bureaucrats, who also threw Reich into prison on fabricated charges, where he died in 1957. This particular study was the first university-level investigation into the most extreme of Reich's claims - of an atmospheric energy which could be affected by his cloudbuster invention to bring rains over widespread areas, even during droughts or in deserts. The study verified Reich's claims. This republication of that original study also includes a major separate work as an Appendix, "Evidence for the Existence of a Principle of Atmospheric Continuity," which makes the argument for a renewed examination of the old cosmic-ether of space, as a parallel concept to Reich's orgone energy discovery. It also reviews similar inexplicable long-distance energetic phenomenon in the natural world which require a similar mechanism, such as solar-terrestrial phenomenon.

In this book we focus on the problem of semantically accessing distributed information concerning e-service management and Information System interoperability. Specifically, we describe AESM (Adaptive E-Service Manager), a platform based on both Intelligent Agent technology and XML whose goal is to adapt service delivery to both exigencies of users who are benefiting from the services and the technical features of the devices they are exploiting. AESM analyzes both user- and device- related information and, then, is capable of both selecting and suitably presenting the most relevant information contents for the user. We then illustrate XIKE (XML Intensional Knowledge Extractor). This system proposes a suitable formalism for describing the contents of an XML Schema and exploits suitable graph-matching algorithms for detecting a wide range of interschema properties (i.e., synonymies, homonymies, hyponimies, overlappings and sub-schema similarities) existing between two (or more) XML Schemas. XIKE exploits interschema properties for carrying out both the integration and the clustering of involved XML Schemas.

For over ten years John P. De Meo kept small index sized paper cards called pit cards in his trading jacket pocket as he worked on the trading floor. When he heard a quote worth noting he wrote it down. Top Squawk New York Trading Floor Quotes is a collection of the best of those quotes that are appropriate to print.

Das Handbuch nimmt eine Standortbestimmung gegenwartiger Seelsorge im Krankenhaus vor. Dargestellt werden Zielsetzungen, Konzepte und Arbeitsweisen der Seelsorge in der medizinisch-oekonomischen Institution Krankenhaus - aus Sicht von praktizierenden Seelsorgerinnen, Supervisoren, in der Aus- und Fortbildung Tatigen ebenso wie Forschenden und Lehrenden aus Theologie, zentralen Bezugswissenschaften sowie aus Leitungs- und Tragerperspektive. Es bietet sowohl einen UEberblick eber Praxis und Theorie aktueller Krankenhausseelsorge als auch vertiefte Einblicke in konkrete Kontexte und Situationen.Das Buch schliesst dabei an das Konzept der vorherigen Auflagen von Michael Klessmann an: Es geht um die Bedeutung der Seelsorge fer Patienten und Patientinnen, fer deren Bewaltigung von Krankheit, Leiden und Sterben, aber auch um ihre Bedeutung fer das Personal des Krankenhauses und die Institution insgesamt. Schwerpunkte bilden dabei exemplarische Arbeitsfelder auf der einen sowie Krankenhausseelsorge als kirchliches Handeln auf der anderen Seite. Das Buch nimmt aktuelle Entwicklungen und Veranderungen in Kirche und Gesellschaft, Gesundheitswesen und Gesundheitswissenschaften, Praktischer Theologie sowie Seelsorgetheorie auf. Traugott Roser bietet damit all jenen Klarung und Orientierung, die sich das erste Mal mit den Eigenheiten seelsorgerlicher Praxis in klinischen Einrichtungen befassen, ebenso wie denjenigen, die mitten in der beruflichen Praxis stehen, und nicht zuletzt Verantwortliche in Kirche und Gesundheitswesen.
