The Defcon’s ONe…
Bill Hicks must be one of the smartest people who have ever lived.
Or at least the first combined social activist and self proclaimed prophet to successfully disguise himself as a stand up comedian.
Anyway, if your feeling down, depressed with life, humanity and the state of the world at large? You need to listen to this:
(And for the sake of love, and all that is true, remember this:
Don’t feel bad, Don’t be afraid, Ever!.. Because.. It’s just a ride…)
(Ok not the be (too) paranoid but this movie clip always disappears from youtube or for some odd reason won’t play…)
Now, if you ever plan to have children, or recently had?
This nursery rime would be a good thing to sing at bedtime.
And then when they are old enough, bring on Bill Hicks! 
Row, row, row your boat,
Gently down the stream.
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily,
Life is but a dream.
Now, I’ll bet you find yourself asking, “What is a connectome?”
A connectome is a comprehensive map of the neural connections in the brain of a given species.
In it’s ultimate form, it’s every single connection of every single neuron in the entire brain.
In the human brain this is a complexity that is simply mind boggling!
According to various estimates, the human cerebral cortex (aka “The Gray Matter”) consists of at least 10^10 neurons with the entire brain at about 10^11. These neurons are then linked together by between 10^15 and 10^14 synaptic connections.
In comparison, the observable universe contains about 3 to 7 × 10^22 stars. (1 Billion = 10^9), and the entire human genome contains only about 25.000 genes!
Now if every synaptic connection could be represented by a single byte (which it can’t), it would take somewhere between 100 Terabytes and 1 Petabyte of data to store the connectome of the human brain.
The video link below gives a good visual understanding of the structure of the human brain. Zooming in from macro to micro structure, covering the low level function of single neurons and their intertwined activity through neuronal connections (synapses).
Regarding the state of present and future research in connectomics, Professor Sebastian Seung explains it all passionately in the TED|VID below.
He also puts forth the proposition that: “I Am My Connectome” and continues to speculates on the possibility of “Man’s Resurrection ”. Or to put it a little more precisely, wether the connectomes of the people, who have chosen to been frozen in liquid nitrogen after their death, still remains intact?
(The real question of interest, to me however, is still when we’ll se the dawn of the ever elusive NPU’s? )

And the greatest lies…
The Official Explanation for 9/11, their “Excuse” for the “War On Terror”, Is completely bogus.
The “War On Terror” itself is a complete media fabrication through manipulation of the media by the people in power.
It’s a fabricated mental delusion, a “Zeitgeist”. And it’s meant to be sustained, not “won”.
The only question left is why?
John F. Kennedy knew what the deal was. If you listen carefully to what he’s actually saying in the beginning of the two videos below, you’ll know why he had to be assassinated. (From his address to ANPA (1961))
(The very word “secrecy” is repugnant in a free and open society; and we are as a people inherently and historically opposed to secret societies, to secret oaths and to secret proceedings. We decided long ago that the dangers of excessive and unwarranted concealment of pertinent facts far outweighed the dangers which are cited to justify it. Even today, there is little value in opposing the threat of a closed society by imitating its arbitrary restrictions. Even today, there is little value in insuring the survival of our nation if our traditions do not survive with it. And there is very grave danger that an announced need for increased security will be seized upon by those anxious to expand its meaning to the very limits of official censorship and concealment. That I do not intend to permit to the extent that it is in my control. And no official of my Administration, whether his rank is high or low, civilian or military, should interpret my words here tonight as an excuse to censor the news, to stifle dissent, to cover up our mistakes or to withhold from the press and the public the facts they deserve to know.)
