Alexander Shulgin Alexander "Sasha" Theodore Shulgin[2] (born June 17, 1925) is an American medicinal chemist, biochemist, pharmacologist, psychopharmacologist, and author. Shulgin is credited with introducing MDMA ("ecstasy") to psychologists in the late 1970s for psychopharmaceutical use. He discovered, synthesized, and personally bioassayed over 230 psychoactive compounds, and evaluated them for their psychedelic and/or entactogenic potential. Due in part to Shulgin's extensive work in the field of psychedelic research and the rational drug design of psychedelic drugs, he has since been dubbed the "godfather of psychedelics".[3] Life and career[edit] Shulgin was born in Berkeley, California to Theodore Stevens Shulgin (1893–1978)[4] and Henrietta D. Shulgin began studying organic chemistry as a Harvard University scholarship student at the age of 16. In the Navy, Shulgin was given a glass of orange juice by a military nurse prior to surgery. In late 1966, Shulgin left Dow to pursue his own interests.
Eight-circuit model of consciousness The eight-circuit model of consciousness is a theory proposed by Timothy Leary and expanded on by Robert Anton Wilson and Antero Alli. The model describes eight circuits of information (eight "brains") that operate within the human nervous system. Each circuit is concerned with a different sphere of activity. Leary, Alli and Wilson have written about the model in depth and how each circuit operates, both in the lives of individual people and in societies. The term "circuits" came from the first wave of cybernetics research and development in the United States in the 1970s. The eight circuits[edit] 1. This circuit is concerned with nourishment, physical safety, comfort and survival, suckling, cuddling etc. This circuit is activated in adults by opioids such as morphine and heroin. A positive imprint sets up a basic attitude of trust. This circuit is said to have appeared in the earliest evolution of the invertebrate brain and corresponds to the reptilian brain of triune brain theory. 2. 3.
Starweaver's Gems from Earth and Sky Platonic philosophy holds that mind precedes matter, and that the universe is created through emanations from the Divine Mind. Neoplatonists developed these ideas further, using the tetraktys of Pythagoras, a geometrical figure consisting of ten points arranged in the pattern of an equilateral triangle. At the top of the triangle is the monad, the pure state of unity that represents the Divine Mind. The base of the triangle consists of four points that stand for the four elements of the material world. Creation proceeds downward through two intermediate levels of emanation: a dyad of complementary principles and a triad of spiritual essences. The description given here is a personal elaboration of these ideas for use with the tarot, based on the tetraktys spread from A Renaissance Tarot by Brian Williams. The cards should be laid out, one row at a time, going from top to bottom and right to left. Tetrad: The Material World From right to left, the positions are Triad: The Spiritual Forces
Tom Wolfe Thomas Kennerly "Tom" Wolfe, Jr. (born March 2, 1931)[1] is an American author and journalist, best known for his association and influence over the New Journalism literary movement in which literary techniques are used in objective, even-handed journalism. Beginning his career as a reporter he soon became one of the most culturally significant figures of the sixties after the publication of books such as The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test, a highly experimental account of Ken Kesey and the Merry Pranksters, and his collections of articles and essays, Radical Chic & Mau-Mauing the Flak Catchers and The Kandy-Kolored Tangerine-Flake Streamline Baby. He is also known, in recent years, for his spats and public disputes with other writers, including John Updike, Norman Mailer, and John Irving. Early life and education[edit] Wolfe was born in Richmond, Virginia, the son of Louise (née Agnew), a landscape designer, and Thomas Kennerly Wolfe, Sr., an agronomist.[2][3] Non-fiction books[edit]
Psychopharmacology An arrangement of psychoactive drugs The field of psychopharmacology studies a wide range of substances with various types of psychoactive properties, focusing primarily on the chemical interactions with the brain. Psychoactive drugs interact with particular target sites or receptors found in the nervous system to induce widespread changes in physiological or psychological functions. The specific interaction between drugs and their receptors is referred to as "drug action", and the widespread changes in physiological or psychological function is referred to as "drug effect". These drugs may originate from natural sources such as plants and animals, or from artificial sources such as chemical synthesis in the laboratory.

Erik Erikson Although Erikson lacked even a bachelor's degree, he served as a professor at prominent institutions such as Harvard and Yale. Early life[edit] Erikson's mother, Karla Abrahamsen, came from a prominent Jewish family in Copenhagen. Following Erik's birth, Karla trained to be a nurse and moved to Karlsruhe. At Das Humanistisch Gymnasium his main interests were art, history and languages, but he lacked interest in school and graduated without academic distinction.[5] After graduation, instead of attending medical school, as his stepfather had desired, he attended art school in Munich, but soon dropped out. Uncertain about his vocation and his fit in society, Erikson began a lengthy period of roaming about Germany and Italy as a wandering artist with his childhood friend Peter Blos and others. Psychoanalytic experience and training[edit] Simultaneously he studied the Montessori method of education, which focused on child development and sexual stages.[6] North America[edit] Bibliography[edit]

tomhayden.com - Peace Exchange Bulletin DMT For The Masses - Extraction Tek Questions [Archive] As to solvents, like I said, Shellie gives a purer product (light yellow) and nice crystals if evaporated slowly. But toluene, which gives a darker product, is far superior in effect. I would use Acacia obtusifolia bark cos it gives a high yield of 3-4g per kilo of bark. 1: Acquire and remove bark from stumps in strips. 2: Acid extraction of bark. 3: Remove bark and boil down. 4: Basify acid extract 5: Solvent extraction. 6. Evaporate. - 1) In a 10L steel pot mix 5L of water and 750ml of “Apple Cider Vinegar. - Apple cider vinegar because it doesn’t concentrate when you reduce the fluid volume. 2) Then add as much bark as the water will cover, and boil for 2hrs with the lid on. 2hrs seems to be long enough to get all the alkaloids out of the bark. 3) Remove the bark and with lid off simmer the acid extraction down to 1L. 4) Let cool and pour into a 2L juice bottle. 5) Measure out 500ml of water and add 4 flat teaspoons of sodium hydroxide. 7) Then add 100ml of either Shellie or toluene.
America’s Broadband Crisis | Wireless for America This country has been challenged to make broadband available to 98 percent of Americans. It’s a challenge to lay the foundation for education, innovation and equal opportunity in the 21st century. Unfortunately, recent research shows that our country ranks No. 15 in broadband penetration. We rank No. 26 in broadband speed, behind countries such as South Korea and even Romania. The situation is especially dire in rural America, which has essentially become an “emerging market” for broadband. Rural communities often lack the most basic fiber optic connectivity, which puts them at a disadvantage when it comes to attracting new businesses, creating jobs, and gaining access to education. The Shrinking Spectrum With hundreds of millions of Americans using smartphones, tablets, and other devices to access the Internet, wireless spectrum is nearly at capacity. The result? A Restrictive Duopoly American Ingenuity and Our Broadband Future

The Last Outlaw: Pun Plamondon‘s Radical Odyssey These days, it’s common for musicians, rappers and would-be tough guys to pose as “outlaws” in hopes of dazzling the public. But in the revolutionary ‘60s, Pun Plamondon was the real deal. A native son of Traverse City, Pun was on the FBI’s “10 Most Wanted” list, living on the run in Algiers and the American underground on charges of bombing a CIA office in Ann Arbor. As Minister of Defense for the radical White Panther Party, Plamondon risked life in prison for his freewheeling hippie lifestyle, not to mention a political platform that touted a life of rock & roll, drugs, and sex in the streets. Every parent’s nightmare, he was a folk hero to thousands of dissaffected youth throughout the Midwest who rallied to the music and radical standard of the MC5 rock band. “It’s the old Jesse James syndrome,” he says during a phone interview from his home in southern Michigan. THE WHITE PANTHERS It was a tempestuous time. Did Pun bring down Richard Nixon?
Rick Strassman Clinical research in Psychoactives[edit] Strassman's studies aimed to investigate the effects of N,N-dimethyltryptamine (DMT), a powerful entheogen, or psychedelic, that he hypothesizes is produced by the human brain in the pineal gland. DMT is found naturally in various natural sources, and is related to human neurotransmitters such as serotonin and melatonin. There is speculation involving the role DMT may play in the dream state. However, Strassman has not provided much of the explanation for the mechanism's mysterious qualities by which this synthesis could produce levels of DMT that would lead to such effects. Others in the field of neurochemistry have not accepted this explanation of DMT's role in this function due to the absence of supporting evidence (i.e. a plausible synthesis mechanism or direct evidence that DMT is found in higher concentration in the body under these circumstances).
