5 Karya Ikonik Nokia untuk Industri Ponsel Dunia
Nokia
Nokia, nama yang pasti tak asing lagi di kalangan pengguna ponsel. Perusahaan asal Finlandia ini adalah salah satu pelopor telepon seluler yang mempopulerkan perangkat tersebut hingga ke seluruh penjuru dunia, tak terkecuali Indonesia.
Microsoft yang baru membeli Nokia turut memboyong sejarah panjang perusahaan tersebut, yang bermula pada 1865 sebagai pabrik kertas dan sempat mendominasi pasaran ponsel selama 14 tahun sebelum akhirnya tumbang di era smartphone.
Tentu, selama kiprahnya di bisnis mobile, tak cuma sekali dua Nokia memberikan kontribusi dan mengubah arah tren ponsel. Nah, berikut ini beberapa "sumbangan" perusahaan tersebut untuk dunia ponsel, sebagaimana dirangkum oleh Cnet.

Tentu, selama kiprahnya di bisnis mobile, tak cuma sekali dua Nokia memberikan kontribusi dan mengubah arah tren ponsel. Nah, berikut ini beberapa "sumbangan" perusahaan tersebut untuk dunia ponsel, sebagaimana dirangkum oleh Cnet.
Nokia 1011
1. Nokia 1011.
Pertama kali diperkenalkan pada 10 November 1992, ponsel ini terlihat lebih mirip telepon rumah ketimbang perangkat portabel yang bisa dibawa ke mana-mana.
Nokia 1011 adalah ponsel GSM (Global System for Mobile communications) pertama yang diproduksi massal, sehingga membantu penyebaran teknologi seluler itu menjadi yang paling banyak dipakai di dunia.

Nokia 3210
2. Ponsel murah meriah.
"Handphone sejuta umat", label ini kerap digunakan untuk menyebut model-model seperti Nokia 3210 dan 5110 yang sangat populer di awal abad ke-21, terutama di kalangan pengguna muda karena relatif terjangkau dan memiliki cover warna-warni yang bisa diganti.
Model-model ini membantu perluasan pasar Nokia dan meningkatkan awareness terhadap merek tersebut. Nama Nokia pun identik dengan ponsel.

3. Desain unik dan menarik.
Tak seperti kini, dulu, ponsel Nokia memiliki bentuk yang beraneka ragam. Perusahaan ini tak takut-takut menjalankan pola pikir "out of the box" dan menelurkan sejumlah rancangan ikonik di dunia ponsel.
Contohnya, Nokia 8110 yang memiliki bentuk melengkung dan faktor bentuk slider yang membuatnya terlihat keren ketika meluncur pada 1998.
Ponsel ini pun menjadi bintang di film pertama trilogi "The Matrix" yang dirilis pada tahun yang sama. Pada masa-masa setelah itu, Nokia terus berinovasi. Rancangan-rancangannya termasuk ponsel berbentuk persegi, dengan keyboard QWERTY, bahkan yang mirip lipstick seperti Nokia 7280 dan 7380.

4. Mempelopori teknologi.
Nokia memperkenalkan banyak fitur teknologi yang kini umum dipakai di ponsel-ponsel modern. Browser mobile, misalnya, pertama kali diusung oleh Nokia 7110. Nokia 5510 memperkenalkan pemutar musik di ponsel, sementara Nokia 6310 membawa teknologi koneksi Bluetooth.
Nokia juga memiliki peranan penting dalam perkembangan game di ponsel. Masih ingat dengan permainan Snake yang sangat populer itu?
Meski telah ada sejak tahun 70-an, Snake baru benar-benar meledak setelah Nokia memaketkan permainan sederhana tersebut sebagai fitur standar di produk-produk buatannya, mulai dengan 6110 pada 1997.

Nokia N95
5. Smartphone.
Ponsel dengan fungsi dasar atau feature phone adalah produk andalan Nokia selama satu dekade terakhir, tapi bukan berarti perusahaan ini tidak memiliki jajaran ponsel pintar alias smartphone.
Bahkan, dengan sistem operasi Symbian, Nokia boleh dikatakan merupakan salah satu pelopor smartphone yang berani menggunakan OS pihak ketiga dan mempu menjalankan aplikasi-aplikasi.
Model-model smartphone Symbian Nokia termasuk dari seri E dan seri N, berpuncak pada N95 yang diperkenalkan pada 2007. Sayang, model-model smartphone Nokia tak terlalu populer.
Pada tahun yang sama dengan kemunculan N95, Apple meluncurkan sebuah handset yang bakal mengubah dunia ponsel selamanya. Setahun setelah itu, Google terjun dengan sistem operasi Android.
Nokia dan Symbian pun tak bisa bertahan. Kemudian, setelah itu datanglah Microsoft yang menawarkan "bantuan" dan kini berubah menjadi pemilik Nokia.
Sebelum diakuisisi, Nokia sempat menelurkan sejumlah model ponsel Windows Phone seperti Lumia 925 dan 1020. Apa inovasi berikutnya yang akan diperkenalkan Nokia di masa depan? Kelanjutan cerita perusahaan ini akan menarik untuk diperhatikan.

Nokia Resmi Tak Buat Ponsel Lagi
Nokia
Hari Jumat, 25 April 2014, Microsoft resmi merampungkan pembelian atas unit bisnis ponsel dan layanan Nokia dalam perjanjian akuisisi bernilai 7,2 miliar dollar AS.
Pertama kali diumumkan pada September 2013 proses akuisisi sempat terhambat masalah regulasi sehingga tidak dapat diselesaikan lebih awal sebelum akhirnya disetujui oleh agensi pemerintahan di seluruh dunia.
"Hari ini kami menyambut bisnis perangkat keras dan layanan Nokia ke Keluarga kami. Kemampuan mobile dan aset yang mereka bawa akan melanjutkan transformasi kami," ujar CEO Microsoft Satya Nadella yang dikutip oleh BBC.
Dua unit bisnis Nokia tersebut dinamai ulang menjadi Microsoft Mobile Oy dan dioperasikan sebagai anak perusahaan terpisah. "Oy" merupakan kata dalam bahasa Finlandia (Osakeyhtiö) yang merujuk pada sebuah perusahaan yang sahamnya tidak dimiliki publik, seperti "Ltd" alias "Limited" dalam Bahasa Inggris.
Rampungnya proses akuisisi itu menandai berakhirnya kiprah Nokia sebagai produsen telepon genggam setelah sebelumnya sempat mendominasi pasar selama lebih dari satu dekade.
Masih belum diketahui apakah Microsoft akan tetap mempertahankan brand Nokia dan Lumia pada ponsel yang diproduksi setelah proses akuisisi. Pihak Microsoft mengatakan bahwa keputusan soal itu akan dibuat di kemudian hari.
Nokia sendiri akan melanjutkan hidup sebagai perusahaan yang berkonsentrasi di tiga area bisnis: insfrastruktur networking (NSN), layanan peta (HERE maps) serta Advanced Technologies (pengembangan dan lisensi teknologi).
Jadi pabrikan besar
The Verge mencatat bahwa Microsoft turut memboyong karyawan Nokia sebanyak 25.000 orang, lebih sedikit dari angka 32.000 yang dicanangkan sebelumnya.
Produsen Windows itu sekaligus menjelma jadi raksasa pabrikan ponsel (melalui unit bisnis Nokia yang dibeli) dengan angka pengkapalan tahunan mencapai lebih dari 250 juta handset, terbanyak kedua setelah Samsung.
Dari jumlah tersebut, hanya 30 juta ponsel yang berbasis Windows Phone (Lumia) bikinan Microsoft. Sisanya merupakan feature phone seri Asha dan Android Nokia X. Microsoft kini harus memikirkan manajemen semua perangkat yang tidak menjalankan Windows Phone itu.
Di sisi lain, pembelian Microsoft atas Nokia membuat perusahaan tersebut berubah menjadi pabrikan hardware paling dominan di ranah bisnis handset Windows Phone, platform yang dibuatnya sendiri.
Lini seri smartphone Lumia milik Nokia sejauh ini menguasai 90 persen pangsa pasar handset Windows Phone. Microsoft pun ditempatkan dalam posisi yang canggung, di mana perusahaan tersebut tengah berusaha memperluas adopsi Windows Phone di kalangan produsen ponsel lain, namun kini juga sekaligus bersaing langsung dengan mereka.

Algorithm Is First to Identify Faces Better Than Humans Can, April 23, 2014
Source: discovermagazine.com
By Carl Engelking
Let’s face it, from trivia to teaching, computers are doing things we thought were uniquely human — and doing them better. Now, facial recognition, a skill humans once dominated, has a new champion. Computer scientists have developed a facial recognition algorithm that, for the first time, outperforms humans’ own abilities.
Facial recognition systems are already better than humans at comparing two images to determine if they are the same person, but only when variables like lighting, pose and expression are controlled. When you shake things up, humans still correctly identify faces with over 97 percent accuracy; before now no other algorithm had come close that mark. However, scientists’ new algorithm, called GaussianFace, performed the feat with an accuracy of 98.52 percent.
Training the Champ
The new algorithm condenses each face it “sees” into a small image to position the eyes, nose, and corners of the mouth in consistent locations. Then, it further divides the image into small, overlapping squares and mathematically charts each square’s unique characteristics, allowing it to compare two images.
Scientists trained the algorithm to look for correct facial features by setting it loose on four massive datasets of face images. Once training was complete, it was time for the main event: Labeled Faces in the Wild (LFW).
LFW is a dataset of 13,000 face images, and is considered the gauntlet for face recognition algorithms. It challenges programs to determine whether a pair of pictures is the same person or different people. However, each photo switches up angles, lighting, makeup and expressions to really test an algorithm’s proficiency.
The GaussianFace algorithm emerged from the test a champion, beating humans’ 97.35 percent average performance on LFW. The algorithm could someday be used in myriad applications including security, image retrieval, and biometric credentials for our computers and mobile devices. The scientists published their findings earlier this month in the online journal arXiv.

Scalar Energy and Controlling the Weather With Lasers, April 23, 2014

Geoenginneering, HAARP, scalar energy, chemtrails, weather warfare, storm manipulation, cloud-seeding, weather weaponization, solar obscuration, climate change...
These are all terms well familiar to those who have done research into the very real issue of weather modification. Not so for the general public.
But now the mainstream is slowly acclimating people to the idea of this type of ’new’ technology, even though research shows this has been going on for decades. It’s what they’re NOT revealing that is the dangerous part.

Scientists think they can control weather with lasers
From: CBSNews
For many Americans who wished they could change the weather -- whether it be in the Northeast during this past winter or in drought-stricken California -- researchers may have found a way to aim a high-energy laser beam into clouds to make it rain or trigger lightning.
The existence of condensation, storms and lightning are all due to the presence of large amounts of static electricity in the clouds. Researchers from the University of Central Florida and the University of Arizona say that a laser beam could activate those large amounts of static electricity and create storms on demand.
By surrounding a beam with another beam that will act as an energy reservoir, the central beam will be sustained for greater distances than previously possible. The secondary beam will refuel and help to prevent the dissipation of the primary beam, which would break down quickly on its own.
Although lasers can already travel great distances, it behaves differently than usual, collapsing inward on itself when a laser beam becomes intense enough, according to Matthew Mills, a graduate student at the UFC Center for Research and Education in Optics and Lasers.
"The collapse becomes so intense that electrons in the air’s oxygen and nitrogen are ripped off creating plasma -- basically a soup of electrons," Mills explained in a statement.
Afterwards, the plasma tries to spread the beam back out -- causing an internal struggle between collapsing and spreading -- what’s known as "filamentation." This process in turn creates a light string that lasts only until the beam disperses.
"Because a filament creates excited electrons in its wake as it moves, it artificially seeds the conditions necessary for rain and lightning to occur," Mills explained.
Previous work done by other researchers have led to some type of "electrical event" in clouds -- raising an added risk of a lightning strike when seeding clouds with lasers, according to the researchers.
"What would be nice is to have a sneaky way which allows us to produce an arbitrary long ’filament extension cable.’ It turns out that if you wrap a large, low intensity, doughnut-like ’dress’ beam around the filament and slowly move it inward, you can provide this arbitrary extension," Mills said in a statement.
"Since we have control over the length of a filament with our method, one could seed the conditions needed for a rainstorm from afar. Ultimately, you could artificially control the rain and lightning over a large expanse with such ideas."

Reversing Sinus Cancer - An Unsolicited Testimonial
When I was 19 years old, during the mid-eighties, I had a very uncommon kind of ‘chemical accident’. At the time, like many curious young people of my generation, I experimented occasionally with sniffing amphetamine. The sniffing of chemicals such as legal highs, cocaine and alike, has rapidly exploded in popularity since my day, and so I suspect there is a proportional and unfortunate increase in the number of sinus cancer patients, which does make this article all the more poignant and timely.
Before the notorious addiction to amphetamine had a chance to establish itself (which was often surprisingly rapid in most cases) I had already fallen victim to a horribly adulterated product. One day I went to buy some amphetamine powder and assumed I had received what I had asked for, while actually what I had bought was some kind of powdered bleach, which I only later realised after sniffing the vile concoction into my sinus cavity. A product undoubtedly more suitable for washing clothes or unblocking drains than sniffing into ones sinus cavity. And yes it did hurt.
I didn’t rush to a hospital as I never wished to admit I had just sniffed a pile of bleach into my head. Perhaps in hindsight this was a mistake. Although to this day I’m not convinced there is a lot anyone could have done for me at the A&E department to reverse the damage I had already just done. It’s clear to me now I had already burnt a hole in the inside of my head, seriously damaged the membrane inside my sinus cavity and destroyed valuable defences between myself and the outside world. The membrane in the sinus cavity is notoriously thin, being only one cell thick, which of course is precisely why this is the preferred route to take chemical drugs and achieve an instant high. Nevertheless, I rather naively prayed there would be no long term damage.
Within about 7 years of this accident, at the age of 26 I came down with all the full-blown unmistakable symptoms of sinus cancer. A tragic result I also partly attribute to my continued smoking habit after the ‘bleach incident’ itself.
One hundred years ago the number of people developing cancer was about 1 in 80 people. Now it is closer to 1 in 2. The reason for this is very straight forward, and has been directly attributed to the irresponsible use of chemicals put directly into our air, water and food by big corporations. Meaning very simply if we use chemicals irresponsibly our chances of attracting cancer rise in direct proportion to this miss use. And my story is certainly no exception to this testimony, in fact directly reaffirming its validity.
For a short while I thought I had got away with it. I almost managed to forget about the dreaded ‘bleach incident’ for a short time, although looking back I was never ‘quite right’ since that fateful day.
However continued cigarette smoking appeared to very gradually aggravate the original burn injury in my sinus membrane. For the first time in my life I started to get sick, tired, and lack energy, and could never figure out why. For a 23 year old man this simply did not make any sense, no one could explain what was wrong. Not even myself. It was many years ago since ‘the bleach incident’ by this time and it took me a long time to 2 and 2 together.
At around 26 years old I woke up one day with a huge persistent blockage in my left sinus cavity, accompanied by a further deterioration in my health, both mental and physical. I first tried blowing my nose to relieve the blockage, but it simply would not shift. In fact repeated blowing only made the blockage rapidly larger, more inflamed and even more irritating. It was a vicious circle of the worst nature imaginable. Words can hardly capture or convey what misery the onset of this disease brings with it. A Catch-22 situation where everything one tries to do only appears to make the situation worse, and quickly options become fewer and further between. Panic can quickly set in and even more irrational strategies employed, as the aggravating symptoms rapidly send the victim into a psychotic spiral of frustration.
I later learned that animals can also be affected by sinus cancer. For example sniffer dogs have notoriously high rates of contracting the disease (or indeed any animal that has sniffed up too many dirt/pollutants into the sinus cavity) is more prone to catching this disease, albeit fairly uncommonly in the wild. However, the results are consistently highly disturbing. Usually the animal quickly descends into a state of full-blown panic and frustration, while trying to remove the persistent blockage to the nasal cavity and rapidly loses all control. Staggering backwards, shaking its head from side to side - puffing and blowing frantically - banging its head into trees or whatever is in its path for up to a week before it eventually dies from exhaustion.
At the onset of my nasal cancer symptoms I booked my first appointment to see my GP who referred me to an ENT specialist and told me the next available appointment was in 6 months. For 6 months I waited, already very ill. When finally the day came for my appointment I presented with all the typical full blown symptoms of sinus cancer. However, the ENT specialist was completely unable to recognise these symptoms even though they were clearly explained, plainly severe and blatantly obvious. He ran a few very simple tests, staring into ear with his gadget, peering up my nose, then told me I was apparently fine and that I should go home. It all seemed very brief and sudden, that I should have waited for 6 months for such a fast appraisal of such a serious condition.
I made another appointment, again for a few months later. I was even more determined to get some kind of serious tests done and find some tangible and conclusive answer to my awful problems, yet I had the same lack lustre unprofessional response as my first appointment. A few basic tests, a quick look up my nose, and sent home with a few bottles of chemicals this time, nasal sprays that I should try 3 times a day.
A few months later I went back and told the ENT doctor the sprays are no good, they are making me worse. He just shrugged and said ‘well try these instead’ we have lots of different sprays. A few months later I went back and complained again that the nasal sprays are not working, and again explained they’re making my symptoms worse. To this day I’m still utterly dumbfounded by the totally unprofessional and cowboy like attempts at treating someone so ill from so called ‘medical specialists’.
Perhaps somewhere in my mind I began to realise there was no easy answer to my problems and quietly sensed that there was nothing any traditional doctors can do to help. Somewhat ironically I later discovered that the totally incompetent nature of the ENT specialists I had visited was to be a mixed blessing, and very possibly saved my life. For I now realise very clearly that if the ENT specialist had recognised the blatantly obvious symptoms of sinus cancer when I first presented them, and given me a proper scan, like an MRI or a simple probe with an endoscope into my nasal cavity (which would have taken only 2 minutes) they would have found a whole heap of problems straight away. This would most likely have involved the standard responses and remedial proposals including surgery, radiation treatment, followed by chemotherapy. Treatments I honestly don’t believe I would of survived.
How did 2 different ENT specialists fail to notice the most obvious symptoms of sinus cancer when they were repeatedly staring them right in the face? The most likely answer was that the disease is so rare (even rarer in the younger generation) that the possibility was not even considered. Such a young person with sinus cancer at 26 years old is after all practically unheard of. They certainly didn’t seem to know anything at all about the disease otherwise I assume they would have recognised at least one of the symptoms. A fact I find bewildering looking back, but a stroke of fate that I was later to realise could well be the reason I am still alive.
I knew in the back of my mind it was serious, but to be told by a traditional doctor ‘’you have cancer’’ may also have resulted in a sudden drop in my moral and all the consequent anguish, which may well have sent me into yet more panic and irrational thought patterns, on top of the ones I already had.
Ultimately I was left alone to struggle with the disease on my own for the next 20 years, while I had no idea, at least at the beginning, what it even was. You can’t imagine how ludicrous a situation! Walking around with this crippling illness, badly affecting the left half of my head, for a reason no one even knew. If people spoke to me, they would have to talk to the right half. The left half was ‘out of order’. People struggled to communicate with me as I constantly distracted by the constant irritation. I could focus on what people were saying to me for short periods, as I became increasingly isolated. I couldn’t understand other people and they couldn’t understand me. A thick barrier between me and the outside world appeared and seemed impossible to budge. I was labelled a freak, an outcast, a hypochondriac, and a loon.
My whole life slowly fell apart, I could never sleep properly, constantly irritable, always sick and tired, my marriage fell apart, my job went with it, everything seemed to be sliding down the drain for a reason no one even knew. My teeth suddenly started to loosen around large areas of my mouth while bad abscesses and ulcers appeared that simply would not go away. I lost many teeth all in a short space of time, while the worst affected area was in the top left hand corner (right below the position of my suspected tumour). By way of an introduction, sinus cancer appeared to punch out half of my teeth out.
I had teeth flying out in all directions, multiple abscesses, and yet still no one knew why. Twenty years later I can now only eat using the few remaining teeth I have left on the right side of my mouth, and therefore very grateful for my blender! I later discovered that disastrous dental decay, loosening of the teeth and persistent ulcers are all common features of nasal cancers. Yet another huge symptom my doctor (and dentist) had failed to spot.
The symptoms were multiple, complex and often severe, but did seem to ‘come and go’. On several occasions, during bad days, thoughts of suicide crossed my mind. In spite of this I tried to stay positive, and for 20 years I kept telling everyone ‘I’m getting better’ when in reality I was still the same. Like running on a conveyer belt I wasn’t actually getting anywhere but at least I didn’t seem to be moving backwards. I also think it was important to both believe and tell people I was ‘getting better’ as it certainly helped me to stay more positive, even if it simply wasn’t true.
The worst symptoms included:
* Constant thirst
* Constant drooling discharge from my left ear
* Terrible allergy to air born pollutants, dust etc (that was not there before the cancer arrived - no previous history of allergies)
* Gradual decay of my top jawbone (has left me without teeth and unable to eat on the left side of my mouth, now stuck with this for the rest of my life)
* Rapid loosening of all teeth, persistent ulcers/abscesses
* Inability to speak, articulate words, swallow or breath properly
* Constant inability to sleep due to constant irritation
* Associated illness/perpetual exhaustion due to lack of sleep
* Terrible allergy to air born pollutants, dust etc (that was not there before the cancer arrived - no previous history of allergies)
* Gradual decay of my top jawbone (has left me without teeth and unable to eat on the left side of my mouth, now stuck with this for the rest of my life)
* Rapid loosening of all teeth, persistent ulcers/abscesses
* Inability to speak, articulate words, swallow or breath properly
* Constant inability to sleep due to constant irritation
* Associated illness/perpetual exhaustion due to lack of sleep
The consistent lack of sleep and consequent exhaustion were a perpetual struggle to deal with. The constant irritation around the sinus cavity seemed to increase when lying down to the point where I quickly became scared of trying to sleep, as it was so predictably and consistently unsuccessful. I actually wanted to sleep standing up! I quickly realised that when our sleeping cycle is destroyed, so is our life. Very rapidly I found myself simply perpetually sick and tired.
I also noticed very early on I seemed to be incredibly thirsty, all the time. Of course at the time I never understood why, yet perpetually found myself drinking a lot of water. Only recently later it has come to my attention that the reason I was so thirsty, for so long, was actually very simple and straight forward: my body was trying to dilute excess acid to try and alleviate the toxic build up that would help the cancer to metastasise and spread.
I often felt a temporary and much appreciated relief from my symptoms after drinking a lot of water, although this was always fairly short lived. So desperate was I to get rid of my symptoms I occasionally found myself drinking even ridiculous amounts of water. Later I realised that excessive water consumption may quickly become a very dangerous situation if not accompanied with the appropriate salt intake. As flushing excess acidity from the body takes with it valuable salt, and of course if salt levels become dangerously low, death may quickly ensue. So avoiding chemotherapy/radiation/surgery and attempting to treat my own cancer had its own perilous risks that could easily have turned tragic at any time.
The plus side to spending 20 years drinking so much water for so long has been an unexpectedly youthful looking skin at the age of 47 year old. The result of more than 2 decades battling cancer from home has left me looking at least 15 years younger than I actually am! This fact alone makes me, somewhat ironically, living proof of the validity of all the assertions regarding acid/alkaline blood in the prevention of diseases such as cancer.
During the early years of my ailment I also noticed a highly noticeable alteration in my symptoms in relation to consuming different food products. People who are sick are naturally more fragile, and more sensitive to different foods and drinks. Indeed anyone who has been seriously ill should be able to relate to this sentiment. For example I noticed very early on Vitamin C and drinking orange juice helped me feel better for a few minutes. The relief didn’t last long, but it was very noticeable. Although I later discovered the sugar content in orange juice is very high, at least I was on the right track. Similarly eating chocolate bars and junk food made me noticeably lack lustre, almost straight away. Albeit hard to understand, my body was trying to showi me what to eat, and what not to eat. I kept listening to my body. Although the signals were often overwhelmingly confusing, I kept trying to decipher and distil the useful pieces of information that helped even fractionally with my symptoms.
Gradually I managed to reduce my smoking habit, improve my diet and kept battling the persistent symptoms. I should confess that smoking at this stage was an incredibly stupid thing to do, even in small amounts and realise this disease could well have beaten far more quickly if I had gained more control over this issue at an earlier stage. Indeed, as it turned out, my smoking almost cost me my life.
However, I wasn’t getting better, but at least I wasn’t getting worse. Several more times I tried going to the GP only to be met with flat refusals of help. One GP even got very upset with my presence in his surgery and started shouting at me ‘I’ve had cancer you know, now please leave’. Little did he know he was already talking to a cancer patient! And this was the typically pathetic nature of my visits to see traditional doctors during the course of my illness. I quickly decided to give up going, after all what was the point?
I wasn’t well enough to keep up with normal healthy people, but I could just about get by on my own. So I decided to stick to life at my own pace and suffer the consequent isolation. I quickly learned healthy people don’t have time for sick people, or the patience. At times this really frustrated me to an extreme, on other occasions I could fully understand why they felt so annoyed having to slow down for me. Perhaps the worst part of it all was that I wasn’t able to ‘keep up’ with healthy people, or even able to be there for a partner/hold down a girlfriend.
Around 2011, at the age of 43, I finally had a break through. I was surfing the internet and looked up ‘symptoms of sinus cancer’ (I think it was from the Cancer Research UK website). BOOM! Oh my god. Every single unique and dreadful symptom I had suffered from for the past 20 years was on that list, all carefully and accurately explained. I searched further lists, again, identical symptoms to my own. For the first time in over 20 years, finally, at last, there was a sensible and rational explanation to my terrible health issue. The penny finally dropped, this was way more than just a coincidence.
I am in fact grateful to Cancer Research UK (though not for any other reason I hasten to add) for providing the public with this vital information concerning the accurate and detailed symptoms of different types of cancer. The numerous traditional doctors I had seen clearly had no clue of what these symptoms are, not even specialists.
After recently talking and liaising with many other cancer patients in my local area (and from around the world) over the past year, the exact same stories regarding lack of professional care available from GP’s/traditional doctors/specialists kept re-surfacing. In fact every single cancer patient I have spoken to has reiterated precisely the same sentiments regarding their experiences with traditional doctors.
>> My GP failed to notice (or in most cases even listen) to the nature of my symptoms,
>> Result? The patient was left to walk around for months (or years) with worsening condition/symptoms,
>> Result? Patient had to return to the GP, on multiple occasions, as the frustration grew worse and the cancer was left to spread,
>> Result? The cancer was finally diagnosed at a very late stage, only after sustained and repeated episodes of desperate pleading with the GP
>> Result? Patient has to undergo drastic treatments, major (usually multiple) surgeries, radiation, and high-dose chemotherapy and usually dies very prematurely due to the ridiculously late detection of their symptoms, and brutal nature of the treatments.
How many times have I heard this? I’ve lost count.
I therefore began to research alternative cancer cures on the internet. And found the website “cancertutor.com” from where I began thousands of hours of research. Like so many cancer patients that have just realised ‘I have cancer’, I began frantically trawling through countless websites and endless reams of information to the point where my head felt it was about to explode. I sympathised with anyone and everyone stuck in the internet maize of alternative cancer treatments until the early hours trying to sort the lies from the truth. I saw how easily panic can set in, how a wrong path can be easily taken, and how easy fortunes can change in an instant.
I immediately began compiling my own list of cheap, quick natural anti-cancer treatments I had gleaned from my online research that I can summarise in the following short list:
*The Budwig Protocol. Cottage cheese and Flax seed oil beaten together using a hand-held blender) to add to any meal. It tastes nice and all seemed to be carefully researched by Dr. Joanna Budwig herself during the 1950’s. Dr. Budwig studied blood and noticed that her recommendation helped to remove lactic acid build-up, which showed up as a yellow colour commonly found in the blood of cancer sufferers, resulting in improved health and positive effects halting tumour growth.
*Apricot kernels /Vitamin B17/laetrile, one of the most popular anti-cancer treatments on the web for which scientific research was conducted in the 1940’s then allegedly buried by pharmaceutical companies.
* MSM. A naturally derived mineral from plants and vegetables initially showed reduced cancer rates in lab studies on mice bombarded with carcinogenic compounds, now the web is saturated with scientific studies supporting its anti-tumour potentials.
* Extra Virgin Coconut OiI. Contain ‘phytosterols’ known anti-cancer compounds.
*Sodium Bicarbonate protocol. A simple theory, cancer cell goes to eat the sugar, and gets alkalised with bicarbonate. Many people contest to the effectiveness of this protocol however I only tried it for a limited period so cannot comment.
* Sea Kelp. Recommended for the high Iodine content needed to support the thyroid gland (however, disappointingly new pollutants entering our oceans have pushed this option into jeopardy)
* Fresh Turmeric Root (a fascinating substance with a long and ancient history in treating all manner of illnesses including cancer)
* Ginger and Galangal Root (both shown to have anti-cancer effects in vitro and in vivo)
* Ginseng tincture (a number of studies appear to suggest that Asian Ginseng can slow down or even halt the progression of tumours, although their validity is still not confirmed, its long history as a medicine suggests there is most likely some truth to these assertions)
*Indian spices: Clove/Cumin/Cardamom/ Black Onion Seed (often called Black Cumin or Nigella Sativa) this Ancient Egyptian anti-cancer ‘super-spice’ has proven anti-cancer properties. Scientists have discovered a black seed component known as Thymoquinone. A study at the Texas A&M University showed “Thymoquinone inhibits tumor angiogenesis and tumor growth”. The Brazilian Journal of medical and Biological Research published a study in June 2007 on the anti-tumor properties of black seed extracts noted “the study showed that there was a clear reduction in the growth of cancer cells in mice that were treated with black seed extracts (up to 95%)”
*Sour Sop/Noni Juice (3 PubMed peer-reviewed scientific articles confirm anti-cancer properties)
* Urine Therapy. Although a distinct lack of any robust scientific evidence of any anti-cancer potential I note there is a recent surge in anti-cancer testimonials appearing online reporting extraordinary success in treating numerous different types of cancer, as well as a host of other ailments. Perhaps most importantly, the occasional drink of one’s own urine reminds us more clearly what we have been drinking or eating, highlighting if we have been consuming something bad and if there should be any adjustment made! Personally I have been consuming between 1 and 2 cups a day.
* Adding a pinch of Sodium Bicarbonate to the filtered water I was drinking to create my own rudimentary alkaline water.
* Colloidal Silver. Noting that silver atoms vibrate at a specific frequency that is highly destructive to pathogens, as reputedly scientists have watched over 600 different viruses and bacteria killed in vitro by silver ion particles. Its use as an anti-cancer treatment may also have some value, so I also included this product in my protocol, made at home with 3 x 9 volt batteries and pure silver rods. (Consuming about half cup during a week).
All of the above items I gradually incorporated into my diet, as one by one I sought to place each new candidate on the above list into a meal/drink/smoothie/juicing preparation. I also found the information provided by the group ‘Eden Prescription’ on the web to be extremely useful with their highly informative explanations of all the anti-cancer compounds contained in so many different everyday foods and urge any cancer patient to look into their work.
After more than a year researching the web I came across the Youtube video entitled ‘The Importance of Juicing’. I was intrigued and captivated by the simplicity of the acid/alkaline hypothesis. And it fitted perfectly with what I had already discovered. Chlorophyll in the leaves of green plants absorb sunlight, the electrons of the chlorophyll atoms become more excited, so logically we eat/drink foods for the electron-rich content which we may turn into energy. It made perfect sense, green juice is liquid sunlight! So I immediately gave it a try.
I quickly found a cheap plastic juicer for £30 and started experimenting. And low and behold, began to notice I felt much better immediately. My body kept telling me “Woah! This works, I’m feeling better” so I carried straight on with it and never looked back.
After wearing out the plastic juicer I opted to buy a manual metal version, I found the BL-30 which I still use religiously to this day. It took me a while to develop the right technique to using it. It’s designed as a wheatgrass juicer to handle tough fibrous products and does take some getting used to. I found softer less fibrous veggies like spinach need to be mixed with kale or something more fibrous like wheatgrass to achieve a more satisfactory rinse, or the residue is still a bit damp. Once I had that bit worked out it was plain sailing all the way.
A bit of shoulder effort and some pushing is needed to draw a pint of juice (so be warned!) with the BL-30, meaning that this type of juicer is certainly not suitable for very sick patients (or the weak armed amongst us) but it has been perfect my needs. And it can be cleaned in 2 minutes flat. Further bonuses of a metal manual juicer are: it’s indestructible, will last a lifetime AND will go travelling and camping in the green fields where there’s no electricity. I had found the new love of my life!
The recipe I have stuck to for best results, with the occasional addition/variation:
One pint of juice first thing every morning including the following organic ingredients:
>> Kale/Spinach/Broccoli/Hemp leaves/Wheatgrass/Celery/Cucumber/One whole lemon including peel/Fresh Ginger Root/Fresh Turmeric Root (available from most Asian Thai food stores)
I usually drink some powdered greens in the evening: 2 table spoons of wheatgrass/barley grass powder shaken up with apple juice.
Due to my lack of teeth I also pursued the blending option, and formulated my own ‘green meal smoothie’ using a traditional blender and as many of the following organic ingredients as I can find:
>> One handful of Spinach/Sage/Peppermint shoots/Parsley/Fresh chopped coconut/One Ripened Banana/Soaked Hemp Seeds/Pumpkin Seeds/Almonds/Piece of Lemon plus Peel/Slice of Ginger and Turmeric/Goji Berries/Crushed Cinnamon bark (put through a coffee blender)/Fresh Aloe Vera/Fresh Pomegranate/ Sea Salt
The number of possible variations to the above recipes are of course practically infinite, yet I found this to be a useful starting point of reference, and hope it may be of benefit and inspiration to others.
Around 2 years ago I heard about another doctor, Dr. Robert Melamede PhD who was talking about treating cancer with cannabinoids often in conjunction with a chap from Canada called Rick Simpson. I tuned into several radio shows where both men discussed the different types of cancers they had successfully treated using cannabis oil. Reporting on the many miraculous success stories from both callers and past case histories I was very interested to hear how the reversal of so many stubborn cancers (deemed wholly untreatable by traditional medicine) were all apparently being sent into remission.
Quoting Dr. Melamede ‘’there are over 800 peer-reviewed scientific studies published since the 1970’s that all confirm the positive effects of cannabinoids in halting and reducing the size of tumour growth…if anyone can be bothered to read them.’’
Not long after hearing about Dr. Melamede I was chatting to a friend locally who suggested I call into a radio show he was hosting to talk with Rick Simpson directly live on air. To my great surprise I found myself hosting about 6 full shows with Rick, each 2 hours long and picked up a lot of useful information along the way. It was a great education, and must admit I found the man wholly inspiring together with his constant stream of success stories and good humour. For a long suffering cancer patient like me this was sweet music to my ears!
Around this same period I tuned into another Dr. Robert O.Young lecture and heard the magic words ‘don’t smoke it, eat it’. I hasten to add that although I only smoked occasionally, it was still enough to off-set my various other treatment plans and impede my success. I was beginning to the light. Which neatly coincided with the end of my problems, for it was not long after this I realised giving up smoking is ‘easy’ (or at least it was for me) if cannabis is eaten in the evening. It cured my cravings to smoke and gifted me a good night’s sleep, which marked the end of my problems. I also followed Dr. Young's pH Miracle Lifestyle and gradually eliminated acidic foods from my diet, such as meat/sugar/alcohol/wheat/coffee etc. The rest of the ride was all downhill after this moment of realisation. I later heard many other stories of addiction cures using cannabis oil, including many cocaine and heroin addicts also finding relief and an easier route out of their destructive lifelong habits, after eating cannabis.
Many debates have raged online for years now regarding the safety of the various different solvents when making cannabis oil, so I quit the idea of making oil fairly early on and decided to take the ancient path. Using a small amount of organic goat’s milk to cook up the crushed/powdered dried flowers in a coffee blender, quickly and effectively extracting the oil in the milk and drinking it, providing the same ‘Rick Simpson Oil’ minus any potentially dangerous contaminants. And personally I have never noticed any difference in the healing potential of the plant from extracting the oil this way, yet remarkably few people, even mention this method as a possible alternative. Although in the treatment of skin cancers carefully extracted cannabis oil does appear to be a highly useful treatment, assuming the causes of body acidity are also addressed.
I later learned cannabis oil will not ‘automatically’ heal all known cancers on its own like many people assume. Like most things in life, it works best in combination with other things. For example, I know someone who recently died from leukaemia, very young, while taking the recommended dosage of cannabis oil. It later transpired he was awfully over-weight, was eating large amounts of acidic foods, while smoking copious amounts, at the same time as ingesting the cannabis oil. Result? He died. I relate this very sad story to hopefully prevent another similarly tragic outcome.
For me the cannabis therapy (used shortly before bed) was not only important because I had not slept properly in 20 years, it also taught me how to smile again and lifted my spirits considerably, after so long feeling sick and depressed, this was a huge blessing. All cancer patients can easily become depressed I discovered, and that depression, of course can be very detrimental to recovery. Incidentally I found juicing greens highly effective for lifting my spirits during the day light hours, and the cannabis milk effective for the evening. For the first time in ages I was smiling all day and all night, and my symptoms were disappearing with each passing hour.
I did however run into some quite unexpected obstacles. Secrecy of course, living in our often hostile world, is of the utmost importance of course if trying to consume/locate cannabis in an illegal market place. I noticed that when people saw me happy, they often became insanely jealous, argumentative, and did whatever they could to try and drag me back down again, occasionally quite viciously. The result was I had to mostly close myself from the outside world for my own safety, realising the battle to cure cancer involves fending off friends, police, very jealous third parties (who may have lost a close relative to chemotherapy) and a host of other parasitic elements all scratching at my front door. In light of this it became much easier to see why people opt for chemotherapy, radiation and surgery!
Incidentally juicing the cannabis plant (whole flower heads and leaves) is also a great idea, as long as the plant has not been allowed to sit near too much pollution and absorb too many traffic fumes, as hemp notoriously absorbs toxins from our atmosphere and actively turns them into compounds less dangerous to our health and the environment.
My thoughts have recently returned to this picture I was shown about 15 years ago by a random stranger. She was waving this picture in front of me, very excitedly, clearly showing the ancient Indian deity, Lord Shiva and kept referring to this ‘green liquid’ he was holding. It really didn’t mean a lot to me at the time. I believe the picture was the one below, which I found many years later on the web. Yet now I ask myself have we known about the cure to cancer and the principles of alkalisation for over 5000 years? And why are we still being told there is no cure to our diseases?
At the beginning of this testimony to the benefits of natural products to treat cancer, I highlighted the unusually close similarity of my own story to that of the human race as a whole: namely the irresponsible use of chemicals and the consequently direct proportional rise in cancer rates. There is also a strong argument that lies within this testimonial for the legalisation of all drugs. Illegal drugs and a distinct lack of education, encourage dealers to actively contaminate relatively safe clean products which may easily end up in the hands of an unsuspecting youngster, resulting in predictably disastrous consequences.
Now that so many corporations are rapidly polluting our natural environment we find ourselves entering a similarly disastrous ‘giant chemical accident’ situation to my own experience. I therefore hope we can take heed of the lessons in my testimony so they can be used on a grander scale to help the entire human race. To prevent far larger catastrophes that may soon affect the entire world population. Indeed I would like to see all the natural anti-cancer strategies further evolved, combined, and improved to create increased benefits for all members of the human race, so I can rest in the knowledge that my own struggle has certainly not been in vain.
One Love.
Eat What You Grew and Grow What You Eat!
REASONS TO GROW YOUR OWN ORGANIC ALKALINE FOOD
.
GET THE NUTRITION YOU NEED & ENJOY TASTIER FOOD!
.
Many studies have shown that organically grown food has more minerals and nutrients that we need than food grown with synthetic pesticides. There’s a good reason why many chefs use organic foods in their recipes—they taste better. Organic farming starts with the nourishment of the soil, which eventually leads to the nourishment of the plant and, ultimately our bodies.
.
KEEP CHEMICALS OFF YOUR PLATE
.
Many pesticides approved for use by the EPA were registered long before extensive research linking these chemicals to cancer and other diseases had been established. Now the EPA considers 60 percent of all herbicides, 90 percent of all fungicides and 30 percent of all insecticides carcinogenic. A 1987 National Academy of Sciences report estimated that pesticides might cause an extra 4 million cancer cases among Americans. If you are growing your own food, you have control over what does, or doesn’t, go into it. The bottom line is that pesticides are poisons designed to kill living organisms and can also harm humans. In addition to cancer, pesticides are implicated in birth defects, nerve damage and genetic mutations.
.
SAVE MONEY
.
Growing your own food can help cut the cost of the grocery bill. Instead of spending hundreds of dollars and month at the grocery store on foods that don’t really nourish you, spend time in the garden, outside, exercising, learning to grow your own food.
.
PROTECT FUTURE GENERATIONS
.
The average child receives four times more exposure than an adult to at least eight widely used cancer-causing pesticides in food. Food choices you make now will impact your child’s future health.

Paul Burley discusses his book Stonehenge: As Above, So Below – Unveiling the Spirit Path on Salisbury Plain which identifies the original design and purpose of the Stonehenge ritual landscape.
Stonehenge remains one of the most profound mysteries on Earth. We know almost nothing about the people who built it, how they did so, or why. As with the pyramids of Egypt, it seems impossible that Stonehenge could have been constructed using the primitive tools and methods prevalent at the time. Theories about its purpose have ranged from an astronomical observatory to a scared ceremonial, burial or even sacrificial site. What seems clear, however, is that ancient civilizations the world over possessed an innate understanding of the relationship between the cycles of life, death and rebirth, and those of the wider cosmos. The belief that life is everywhere and in all things and that all things are interconnected was fundamental to their worldview. It is vital to keep this in mind when contemplating the enigma that is Stonehenge.
Stonehenge: As Above, So Below will change your understanding of the people who built the first and largest monument and many other mid-Neolithic structures that remain vital to the functioning of this sacred landscape. You will discover that the Stonehenge landscape is the oldest and best preserved example of astronomically-related sacred symbolism ever constructed. It is a major breakthrough unveiling a new paradigm for how Stonehenge was used over five thousand years ago, and how we should view it today.

Tom Campbell Supports Dr. Rupert Sheldrake's 10 Dogmas of Science, April 22, 2014

Tom Campbell, physicist, and author of My Big TOE, responds to Dr Rupert Sheldrake's 10 dogmas of science from Dr Sheldrake's book The Science Delusion (Science Set Free in the US), and discusses the one concept that shakes up materialist worldview scientists the most - Consciousness.
Materialist worldview scientists have taken small steps for man for the past 100 years and now need to understand (fittingly from a NASA physicist) that the next "giant leap for mankind" in science is Consciousness.
Note: MBT theory scientifically derives a supreme being, what Tom calls the Larger Consciousness System, and what some may call God.

Eggs - One of the Top Ten So-Called Foods to NEVER EAT!
For many making the transition to a plant-based alkaline lifestyle, cheese and eggs can be the hardest things to give up. In fact, a love for eggs and cheese in particular is often cited as one of the reasons people go vegetarian as opposed to vegan. It seems meat is easy to give up for some, while many can’t let go of the dirty dairy stuffs. Recently, a Huffington Post blogger posted on “5 Smart Reasons to Eat Eggs,” with mention of the high protein content of the food, a possible reduced risk of cancer, and more. I am here to tell you, this advice isn’t so great for you – or for the animals involved in the egg industry. Here are eight reasons to NOT Eat Eggs:
1) Many studies show egg consumption actually increases the risk of certain types of cancers, including colorectal and bladder cancers. Check this out: “A case-control study done in Argentina found that people consuming approximately 1 1/2 eggs per week had nearly 5 times the colorectal cancer risk compared with individuals consuming less than 11 eggs per year. And, the World Health Organization analyzed data from 34 countries and determined that egg consumption was significantly and positively correlated with mortality from colon and rectal cancers in both men and women. Moderate egg consumption also tripled the risk of developing bladder cancer as determined by a case-control study of 130 newly diagnosed bladder cancer patients published in the journal International Urology and Nephrology.” In other words, don’t risk it! There are so many healthy alternatives that it’s silly to risk your health with acidic eggs and dairy.
2) When it comes to U.S. egg farms, 90 percent of the country’s 280 million egg-laying hens are crammed into tiny cages so small that they can’t move, let along flap their wings. As the Human Society writes, “the science proves what common sense already told us: that animals confined in such an extreme way endure constant suffering.” And this also means potentially disgusting results on those eggs – hens in these conditions become sick, with open wounds and fecal matter dispersed all over their bodies quite often. Do you really want to contribute to this situation?
3) One word: cholesterol. Eggs are extremely high in cholesterol – about 186 mg per large egg – and diets high in cholesterol is an indication of high acidic levels in the blood and tissues. High cholesterol is the body's response to buffer the high levels of toxins or acids that can lead to heart problems. As PCRM explains, “every day, nearly 2,600 Americans die of some type of cardiovascular disease, an average of one death every 34 seconds, and 7.1 million Americans have had a heart attack during their lifetimes.” Do you really need eggs in your diet, knowing you can help cut this acid killer from your life just by eliminating your intake or eggs (among other animal proteins)?
4) For athletic fuel, plant-based alkalizing protein is the way to go. The Huffington Post article states, “Keep in mind that you don’t have to limit egg consumption to breakfast. Make hard-boiled eggs ahead of time and keep them on hand for snacks — eggs are a great fuel source before a run.” Check out these awesome athletes who will show you that don’t need animal protein to fuel a workout. And there are plenty of cleaner, plant-based alkaline foods that can fuel your protein needs to choose from, such as avocado, broccoli and hemp. Why grab an egg, which can actually hurt you and also contributes to animal suffering?
5) Not a big fan of food chemical or acid poisoning? Then stay away from eggs and diary. PCRM explains that eggs can be a host for contamination: “Porous and fragile shells and crowded egg farms allow eggs to become the perfect host for salmonella, the leading cause of food poisoning in the United States.” Add this to the conditions described in reason #2 above, and you’ve got yourself one big cesspool of potential illness.
6) According to the Department of Agriculture a single egg contains over 38,500,000 pathological bacteria and yeast that can lead to sickness and disease. The ingestion of one single egg will acticalte the immune system or white blood cells to clean up the bloody mess - no pun intended.
7) So what is the purpose of an egg? The biological purpose of an egg once fertilized is to make a chick NOT to eat! You must know that the release of an egg is part of the chickens period!
8) The body runs on electrons NOT protein, carbohydrates or fats. When you crack, cook and then eat an egg all you do is activate every force in the human body to protect itself from just being poisoned with acids, bacteria and yeast.
