Occupy the Media

There was a recent Occupy placard held aloft by a protester that caught my eye: "The Revolution Will Not Be Televised" it said. And I thought, that's captured one of the key problems in our world today. There is so much corporate ownership of the media that it seems pretty inevitable that they would be pretty firmly on the side of the status quo.

This is not to denigrate the efforts of responsible and courageous journalists the world over, of course, who are fighting to expose the corruption of the systems where they live, but in most cases, our media only report news that favors those in power.

It's high time we held our media to some higher standards than just giving us what they think we want. They have a responsibility, after all, to defend the people's interests, and we are remiss in not demanding that of them.

So ... occupy the media is what we say. And what we'll explore on our Thinking with Somebody Else's Head program today.

The Wisdom Inside Us

One of the things that gives me solace when looking at all the really horrible manipulation and cruelty of our modern day society is that the perpetrators of these evil deeds will have their comeuppance.

How all that works is the subject of our show today. Through near death experiences, everyday guilt feelings and spiritual teachings, we can see that our lives have a purpose, and that purpose cannot be fulfilled unless we're prepared to live from a commitment to goodness, truth and beauty. And in our inverted world of flexible morals where good is relative and evil depends on the circumstances that's a challenge.

But evil is still evil and good is still good, and it all plays out inside us every time we do something. For that matter, there is much inside us that we don't have contact with as much as we should, and I hope our program today will fix that a little.

The Wisdom Inside Us, today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head.

Standing Up for Truth

One of the most relevant themes we're focused on here in Brazil these days is the exploding movement for freedom reverberating around the world. Martin Luther King stated that freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed.

Isn't it this demand that is echoing through all these diverse societies these days? And the oppressors, to echo King's language, are not giving up easily, as is being witnessed by Occupy activists everywhere.

Dr. King, though, I don't think really understood why it has always been that way. What causes the oppressor to cling so tenaciously to power is not well understood or broadcast, and needs to be. Norberto Keppe's science of Analytical Trilogy does that.

But the other side of the coin is that to be a fighter against the barbed wired of oppression takes some cojones. And it is this courage that must be summoned from deep inside us if we're to vanquish injustice once and for all.

Liberation from Socio-Economic Power

As I watch the gathering force of the #Occupy and Liberation of the People movements worldwide, I've been considering the impact of power in human life. Lincold talked about how you could test a man's character by giving him power, and we can all use that to slag the visible power brokers that stalk the halls of power. These are the front men and women, the mouthpieces for the New World Order.

But I have been reflecting on how to bring the light to bear on the power behind the throne - for this is certainly the most urgent need.

Eisenhower warned us about the acquisition of unwarranted influence by the military-industrial complex back in the '50s, and this was prescient. But many other of the more ethical front men in history have warned us about a scarier and more dangerous power - financial control by the private banks.

In fact, Rothschild, perhaps the biggest financial manipulator of them all, once clarified it for us: "Give me control of a nation's money and I care not who makes its laws," he said. Chilling stuff for any who understand Norberto Keppe's analysis of the pathology of power.

Pathway to a New Society

We have some essential consciousness on our program today about what's necessary to create a true society. Something idealists have strived to create for centuries, with little success.

Orwell was rather skeptical about the human creature. "No advance in wealth, no softening of manners, no reform or revolution has ever brought human equality a millimeter nearer," he stated. And there are 2 points to say about that. One is that he is suggesting something about the inner struggle of man. We're born for happiness, but reject it at every turn. This is an issue of human psychology, which we discuss frequently on our show.

But there is a perverse power structure in control, too, which dominates us because the sickest people are there. This is a sociopathological view, and an understanding of both these aspects can be had through Norberto Keppe's science of psycho-socio pathology called Analytical Trilogy.

This is the essential scientific underpinning that the Occupy movements need to have urgently if they're to be successful in effecting change. And yet, it's a scientific viewpoint that's been denied humanity because the powerful haven't liked what Keppe explores in his books. Especially in his Liberation of the People, the first study of the psycho-social pathology of people with power, psychotics who are impeding human development and destroying society. If we don't stop them immediately, we will witness the rapid demise of civilization.

This is what we'll get into today on our program.

Analytical Trilogy and #Occupy Wall St.

Fresh from the march in support of #Occupy Wall St. that occurred down here in São Paulo on Oct. 15, 2011, I have some things to add to the movement. There are protests happening in many cities in North America and Europe, and of course, the Arab Spring continues. Even totally censored China has activists plying the social networks to build support for their causes.

So, things are changing. And all this is welcome. We human beings that make up the 99%, and even some in the 1%, are waking up to the very disagreeable social situation and saying, "Hey wait a minute. This sucks!"

But I'm struck as I follow all this that now more than ever we need an orientation that goes beyond party politics and personal agendas and really gets us to the root causes of this mess. And then lays out a game plan for how to change things. Once and for all.

I have been living and broadcasting and teaching from the International Society of Analytical Trilogy for 10 years now, and become conscious every day of how the science Norberto Keppe has elaborated can help us in this struggle for our freedom. And I'd like to apply that science to the #Occupy Wall St. movement today on our program.

Analytical Trilogy and #Occupy Wall St., today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head.

Science for Revolutionaries

We are living in interesting times. Perhaps revolutionary times. The Arab Spring, Occupy Wall St., the scheduled Oct. 15 global protests. Is it possible we the people are waking from our long hibernation? Are we really saying "enough is enough" collectively?

This can give us hope as we analyze facts like 46% or our tax dollars here in Brazil going to pay interest on bank loans when this developing country's infrastructure needs are so great. This can help us to resonate with the fight of the 99% against the 1%, that powerful statistic from Michael Moore's documentary critique of capitalism.

But we should be cautiously wary as well because we have ample experience of how the naivete of popular protest can lead to an illusion of change while the power remains untouched. This is perhaps most urgent here: we need a clear vision of what's gone wrong at the roots if we're to fix it. We'd like to offer something in that spirit today.

Nothing gives us this vision as well as Norberto Keppe's science of Analytical Trilogy. It's an amazing science for revolutionaries, and we'll explore that today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head.

Consciousness for a Conscious Planet

A conscious planet ... wow, is that ever needed right now. I know many people are feeling that something's just not right in our world today, but don't know how to characterize this general malaise they feel any more than that. Our program is trying to address that ... indeed, Dr. Norberto Keppe's science of Analytical Trilogy has been shedding the light on what's gone so wrong for over 50 years now. Either we're slow learners, or we've really been avoiding the consciousness he brings.

So, no more avoiding. Understanding how humanity painted itself so tightly into this corner is here in our program today, along with some hope for a way out. Or at the very least, how to cope with the difficulties and offer a hand out to those in more serious need.

First in our program today, Susan Berkley with some thoughts on modern Judaism here shortly after the Jewish New Year, along with some thoughts on the Occupy Wall Street protest movement. Then Claudia Bernhardt Pacheco with her perspectives from a lifetime career as a psychoanalyst on what's gone so wrong, and how to fix it.

A Call to a Life of Goodness, Truth and Beauty

On our program originating from the International Society of Analytical Trilogy in São Paulo, Brazil, we dig in every week to offer you our analysis of the world we live in. And especially we look at how we've gotten so off track - particularly over the past century.

This is not always comfortable consciousness we bring. It's a little harrowing to hear about the pit we've dug ourselves into. But we are hardly the first to shine the light on the decadence all around us. In 1917, three young Portuguese shepherds were visited over the course of 6 months by an apparition of the Blessed Virgin Mary. She, also, did not bring comforting news. What she did bring was a clear vision of what was going on in the world and what was required of us if we wanted to survive it.

And I think we would do well to heed her advice to humble ourselves and change our ways. And trust that goodness will triumph. We'll explore all of this today on our program. A Call to a Life of Goodness, Truth and Beauty, today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head.

Consciousness to Transform Society

I showed Charles Ferguson’s Inside Job documentary to some friends on the weekend. And watched their heads nod knowingly. These are pretty astute analysts down here of the social situation. They’re students and teachers with me of Dr. Norberto Keppe’s scientific studies into the psycho-social causes of our life-threatening problems on the planet. They were not surprised at the facts really, but they were very impressed at how Ferguson put all the complexity into a coherent package. This is well done.

Down here in Brazil, we receive the TNT channel in our cable TV package, and I’m flabbergasted at how many times the Harry Potter or Jason Bourne blockbusters are run. They repeat constantly. I think Inside Job should be on that kind of rotation.

But I also think Dr. Keppe’s TV shows should get more airing, too. Not sure if you even knew about his TV shows, but we have a number of excerpts on our site for you to see really remarkable new media. With considerable philosophical, theological and scientific teeth. Because in all the brilliance displayed in Inside Job, I still think it suffers from a lack of understanding of the science of psycho-socio pathology that Keppe brings. I feel most social activism falls into this trap actually. And this is the science we expose in our show. We’ll do that again today.

Illuminating the Causes of the Economic Meltdown

The crisis has been blamed on mortgage malpractice, on poor or non-existent regulation, on greed for banking bonuses that causes risky lending to be conducted. And it seems clear that all of this is implicated in the current economic meltdown being led by the U.S. Regulators want to blame Wall St., Wall St. wants to blame the regulators, apologists for the Bilderbergers, Council on Foreign Relations and the Trilateral Commission even point to the Baby Boomers as the cause.

And all of this just muddies the waters.

You listen to the pundits and the debaters and the talk show blowhards and cable TV comedians and end up believing in whichever espouses the economic or political philosophy you already adhere to. And nothing changes. You just wind up feeling that you don't really know anything, no matter how informed you are.

Well, to begin with, there's been a systematic effort over many decades to eliminate the regulations put in place in the 1930s to stop the kind of financial sector gluttony and greed that got us in trouble in 1929, and is repeating itself again now. This is not being understood. We get almost no historical context to explain what's going on ... and so we don't solve the fundamental causes of the problems.

We'll try to shed some light on the causes today on our program, with a panel discussion with a number of Americans linked to Norberto Keppe's science of Analytical Trilogy so we can try to understand, once and for all, what's really going on. And what we can do about it.

Lessons from Norway

We are a program about thinking, of course, but also a program about acting, about contributing to a better society. It's our contention at the International Society of Analytical Trilogy in Brazil that if we understand the benefits of good action, we would all be more inclined toward it.

But perhaps we've forgotten that tenet of society, that do unto others creed that earlier generations grew up with. I'm not sure when it happened exactly, but somewhere along the way, being good got a bad rap. It became cool to not care, to look after number one only. Maybe we threw the goodness baby out with the bath water when we were marching for revolution in the '60s and trying to undo everything our forefathers had erected, but in doing that, we tuned out on some good stuff, too ... not just the insanity of war.

It's fundamental to our society to do good. But it's also essential to our sanity. And with the horror of Norway reverberating throughout Europe and the world, it's timely to remember that we have contributed to this very destructive world in more concrete ways than we maybe wish to consider. We'll look at that today on our program.

Waking up the the Cause of Crisis

We live in a world dominated by the pathology of power. And we’re totally ingenuous about that. But ignorance of corruption is no excuse, and our silent acquiescence is a form of condoning it.

Norberto Keppe’s work of Analytical Trilogy has made enormous strides in giving us the tools to analyze the powerful behind the creation of the most unjust society in history – today’s – and that’s why his work has been so attacked by media and political figures alike. But the work is still there, albeit out of the mainstream, and available to help you understand the world we live in, and how we’ve gotten so off track.

We’ll explore the genesis of Keppe’s study into sociopathology and offer a searing critique of the media that keeps us asleep today on Thinking with Somebody Else’s Head.

Living a Life of Value

The poet, William Ross Wallace, but it well: "Every man dies, but not every man really lives," he said. And that should give us pause here in our hectic, commercialized and materialistic world.

Are we really living? And what does that mean anyway?

A couple of questions there that don’t have easy answers. Which is maybe why we avoid them so arduously by distracting ourselves with happy hours and blockbusters and diverse entertainments. There is so much energy spent on just surviving that I’d like to step back from today to consider life in a deeper way. Living a Life of Value, today on Thinking with Somebody Else’s Head.

Decay in the Land of Plenty

We are living in the best of times for social activism. Norberto Keppe’s science of Analytical Trilogy contains priceless perspectives on any number of important themes for all concerned citizens. And knowing this puts us in a much better position to work for change. Without his science, we end up just criticizing, or worse, replacing corrupt systems and people with even worse situations because we didn’t understand more deeply what was going on – as happened with the French Revolution where the nobility was replaced by the even worse financial/economic power structure.

As Keppe writes, “Our task today is to disinvert the position of humanity, which is now at the service of the individual interests of a few thousand people, meaning that the rest of us cannot work for our own benefit. We’ve organized a senseless social system within which we’re all forced to live. From the time we’re born, we are confined in an inhuman social framework that increases our psychological tension to the extreme.”

With the perspectives brought by Analytical Trilogy, it is now possible once and for all to put a stop to the powerful and begin living in harmony with what we are in essence.

Today, we’ll look at all of that by considering the decay that lurks in the land of plenty.

Eliminating Faith and Truth: The Failure of Psychological Science

“Our earth is degenerate in these latter days. Bribery and corruption are common and there are signs the world is speedily coming to an end.” The latest doomsday prognostication from the Mayans? Not exactly. A statement allegedly lifted from an Assyrian tablet dated 2800 B.C.

It’s clear mankind has been on the wrong path for some time, but what specifically are the steps we’ve taken off the straight and narrow? At least some of the blame can be laid at the feet of Freud and Marx and other schools of psychology. Professor Karl Jaspers, arguably humanity’s greatest psychological scientist, said that some psychologies and sociologies have performed perversions in society and exerted devastating power.

Let’s look at how these ideas have helped us corrupt our planet and ourselves. Eliminating Faith and Truth: the Failure of Psychological Science, today on Thinking with Somebody Else’s Head.

Corruption: It's Not Just Out There Anymore

Corruption. Some government official with his hand out or a doctor accepting an all expenses paid fishing trip in exchange for promoting new pharmaceuticals, or a baseball player betting on his own team. It’s part of doing business in some countries, and whispers of it are always present wherever big events, like the Olympics and the World Cup, are held.

But corruption is not reserved only for corporate boardrooms or secret meetings of the world’s power brokers – although it’s certainly in abundance there. It’s also inside all of us who corrupt ourselves without knowing how, or why. We’ll look at corruption in all its forms today, on Thinking with Somebody Else’s Head.

Liberation of the People: Going Beyond Materialism, Power and Media Manipulation

It was Jefferson who first realized the necessity of a free press in America. “Media is the best instrument for enlightening the mind of man, and improving him as a rational, moral and social being,” he said eloquently. Prominent journalist, Bill Moyers, has suggested that there’s nothing more important for a democracy than ensuring an independent and free media.

The loss of this, then, is of great concern to any who seek to live in freedom. Media has become at best a kind of sideshow and at worst, completely irrelevant, because it doesn’t tell us what’s going on. We’ll look at that and consider the implications of this for the liberation of the people, today on Thinking with Somebody Else’s Head.

Romance, Ideals and Transcendence: Living a Meaningful Life

We have become inured to the huge levels of injustice and corruption perpetrated by our political/economic system today, and this needs to change. The current disturbing levels of apathy appear to be the reason for the success of Stéphane Hessel's Cry Out! - a French publishing phenomenon. This 13-page pamphlet encourages youth to recapture the French spirit of resistance by rejecting the "insolent, selfish" power of money and markets and by defending the social "values of modern democracy."

Norberto Keppe's, Liberation of the People, written the the mid 1980s, offered a call to all idealists, all who believe in goodness, truth and beauty, to unite so a new society could be built, the Kingdom of Man on Earth. Keppe foreshadowed Hessel's admonitions, and he goes deeper, too, explaining how we got so off track and offering concrete solutions to fix things. We explore how that's more than idealism and actually approaches true romance, today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head.

Sex, Lies and Real Deadly Sins

The feeding frenzy arising from the charges against Dominique Strauss-Kahn stimulate analysis. How we in the public rise up in collective indignation at suggestions of sexual impropriety while hardly looking up from our breakfast cereal at revelations of the lies that pushed us to war! Not to diminish the charges in any way, but there's more going on here than first glance would tell us. Deeper explanations are needed ... and fast.

Especially when we consider Strauss-Kahn's prominent role in criticizing the global financial system while moving to reduce the importance of the dollar in IMF negotiations. How to look at this terrible situation with consciousness, humility and even wisdom? We'll conduct an Analytical Trilogy psycho-socio analysis of the DSK affair, and consider what real malfeasance goes on around us all the time unnoticed and even supported.

The Science of Transcendence

What is the true nature of man? Is it good, beautiful and true? Or a mix of those elements with corruption and evil?

That question strikes deep to the issue philosophers have struggled to answer for centuries. Today, we are very fortunate to have some conclusions on the subject, originating from Norberto Keppe's school of Analytical Trilogy.

And the conclusions reached at Keppe's scientific society allow us to look with new eyes on transcendence, psychic phenomena, death and human meaning. All of which we'll do on our program today.

Truth and Reconciliation, Analytical Trilogy Style

Bin Laden's death. A major victory by the good guys over the bad guys? Or an inverted celebration based on a false sense of unity? We make a strong argument for the latter this week on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head. You see, when the celebration fades away, the real problems will appear again. The economy, the growing gap between the poor and the extremely rich, the scandalous profits made by pharmaceutical companies that poison us with unnecessary medicines, the millions in drug cartel money laundered by the U.S. banking system ... those are the real dangers facing America, not some obscure Al Qaeda terrorist network hiding in the mountains of Afghanistan.

And these real problems we're not addressing. There are enormous dangers of using outside scapegoats to mask our deep societal problems, and we'll explore all that on this week's program with Claudia Bernhardt Pacheco.

Rekindling a Social Conscience

You might not know firsthand the social conscience displayed by the artists of the ‘60s, and the social and civil rights activists from the ‘50s. But it was a powerful thing.

There was a real spirit of change moving back then, and the answer did seem to be blowing in the wind. The spirit wavered there bravely for a time, but then got lost in the drugs and greed and the “me” generation.

And always, the spectre of the pathology of power was there, attacking the protesters on campus sit ins and submitting a generation of idealistic youth to the horror of Vietnam and the mindless menace of violence and nuclear obliteration.

What happened to our activism, and can it be recuperated? Through the science of Analytical Trilogy elaborated by Norberto Keppe, let’s try to rekindle a social conscience today on Thinking with Somebody Else’s Head.

The Evil Man Does: Going Behind the Curtains of Power

It is extremely important to perceive that the established powers have been organized to control the will of the people, paralyzing their capacity to act. In fact, there is ample evidence that the socio-economic power in charge today holds back the development of humankind.

But most critics (and there are many, including many excellent ones) can’t connect the dots to give us a complete analysis of it because they’re lacking the understanding of the science of psycho-socio pathology. Which is exactly what we bring every week on Thinking with Somebody Else’s Head.

In spite of being attacked relentlessly by the powerful because the powerful know that if his work gets into the world, they lose their hold on power, Norberto Keppe has been resolute in his condemnation of the pathology of power. We’ll go deeply behind the curtains of power to expose all that on today’s show.

Depression and Society

Here’s a wild thought: it’s our socio-economic structure that is causing most of our distress and misery today. We’ll even go a little further: it leading us into mental and physical illness. After all, human beings cannot live in balance if society is out of balance.

The dynamics between the individual’s internal problems and the resultant social difficulties has rarely been studied … and never with the clarity and vision we’ll introduce today. Stress as a consequence of social sickness, led by the most unbalanced individuals in our society today – our leaders – and what we need to do to improve it.

Society on the Couch

Drug dealers, prostitutes, terrorists, assassins. These are all aspects of society we have to deal with in our modern world. But not only in the external population. No, there are many of those personalities in power today. And they use the police and military to squash dissent in all of the myriad and horrible ways we’ve seen in the 20th century.

Let’s bring the precise lens of psycho-socio pathology brought by Norberto Keppe’s science of Analytical Trilogy to the subject today.

Analytical Trilogy - Going Beyond Pseudo Solutions

The Tsunami and nuclear crisis in Japan, the rising up in the Arab world, Haiti, the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, another war … this is all showing much more than human tragedy and environmental devastation. What it’s showing us is that our way of behaving on the planet, even our lauded scientific philosophy itself, has led us not to the promised land of abundance and happiness, but to the brink of disaster. We are seeing the inevitable results of an inverted worldview.

This is much discussed and understood in the science of Analytical Trilogy – but discussed far less than it should be in the world at large.

Modern Science in Crisis

Any critique of modern science hits up against a formidable wall of skepticism and blind loyalty to the dogma that characterizes the scientific world view today.

That won’t stop us from attempting the task, however.

Because something changed in science. Although scientists today are generally against any idea of a transcendental reality, it wasn’t always like that. For centuries, the greatest geniuses considered the ultimate creative force of God fundamental to understanding of anything.

And then, it all changed. Let’s explore that change, and show how modern scientific dogma has led us to a blind alley that we won’t be able to escape from without reuniting science with theology and philosophy – which is exactly what Norberto Keppe’s Analytical Trilogy does.

Within this critique will also be some fundamental knowledge about the human psyche and its contribution to our problems, and the hopeful possibilities emerging from the Keppe Motor.

Women - and Men - on the Couch: A Trilogical Analysis of Relationships

Knowing what’s going on inside the heads of human beings is obligatory for everybody, whether we’re speaking about life in general or about any profession you might have.

And why is this so fundamental? Because there are so many twists and turns in human relationships, in work, in all professions, in life, that if you don’t understand what’s going on between people’s ears, you will never be able to truly succeed in your life.

And knowing what’s going on in women’s psychopathology has seldom been well analyzed, and our society suffers as a result. We’ll dive deeply into what’s going on in women’s heads today with one of the foremost experts on women and their role in society’s destruction, Dr. Claudia Bernhardt Pacheco.

Living in a Universe of Spirits - Analytical Trilogy's Scientific Theology

There is a deep thirst inside us all for understanding of the most important part of the being – the metaphysical aspect. It is exactly this that differentiates us from animals, and if we do not consider our spiritual aspect, we are actually mutilating our understanding of ourselves.

But how to make heads or tails of spirituality, buried as it sometimes is under so many layers of dogma and fable? By looking at the universe of the spirits scientifically, which we’ll do today on Thinking with Somebody Else’s Head.

The Persecution of Truth: the Attacks Against Norberto Keppe

Norberto Keppe was well established in the U.S. in the 1980s. And his science of Analytical Trilogy was having a big effect – which the powerful didn’t like all that much.

Meaning that Keppe and his team of researchers were attacked relentlessly – especially when it became clear that Keppe was touching a sensitive nerve and making a lot of people conscious of the pathology of power and how it was leading America to ruin. Didn’t get Keppe too many invites to State Department soirees back then. And this was extremely unfortunate. If we had listened to Keppe back then – if we’d been given the chance to listen to him – things would be very different in America today.

How the Mind Influences Nature

Science has become tragically compartmentalized. A bacteriologist has little knowledge of what an endocrinologist does, much less does a paleontologist understand anything of molecular chemistry. And although all of it may be Greek to us, there is a synthesis in science that comes from disinverting the basis of the scientific disciplines.

Norberto Keppe’s work of Analytical Trilogy has accomplished that Herculean feat, and we are the lucky beneficiaries. Science that makes sense today on Thinking with Somebody Else’s Head, and along the way, a consideration of good and evil, what’s happening in the Arab world, and how our minds influence nature – beautifully explained as always by Dr. Claudia Bernhardt Pacheco and Richard Lloyd Jones.

The Modern Relevance of a Spiritual Life

Dec. 21, 2010

Spirituality. It’s what we should be in touch with this holiday season. But it seems we’re farther and farther away. In our predominantly materialistic/sensorial world, is it even relevant to be spiritual? We think yes. Never more so. Listen in now to Richard’s conversation with Dr. Claudia Pacheco.

The Will, Freedom and True Reality

Dec. 7, 2010

Dr. Claudia Bernhardt Pacheco joins us today for a profound exploration of the nature of life, how far we’ve strayed from it and what that distance means for human intelligence and culture. A poetic discussion that finds time along the way to consider the inverted human will, airport security gone mad, and how the Japanese are using Mozart to ripen bananas.

The Modern Relevance of God – an Analytical Trilogy Perspective

December 22, 2010
The Great Spirit. Jahweh. Jehovah. The Almighty. God. Whatever name He goes by, He’s been honoured and worshipped by the greatest human beings in history. Only in our modern times have we systematically acted to remove the Creator of the universe – and of ourselves – from our human institutions. At great damage to ourselves.

Today on Thinking with Somebody Else’s Head, our Christmas show, the Modern Relevance of God.

Well, it’s a beautiful topic today because it speaks to something deep in all of us – even if we don’t acknowledge it. The sense of meaning we all look for and have such difficulties finding in our modern philosophy. God is largely out of the picture in human affairs today, and we’ve removed Him at great expense to our collective well being.

The modern scientists and thinkers have elaborated theories that try to explain existence and all the magnificence and immensity of the universe in materialistic ways, as not needing the “Immovable Mover”, as Aristotle called Him. And the pathological powerful who often held the reins of the churches have contributed to the modern day aversion to God as well. After all, who wants to consider a God who is intoned from high places as the bringer of pestilence and war and famine.

Those things have nothing to do with God but blaming Him for them marks an enormous projection into God of what we do. I am not talking about that vision of God at all, but of the infinitely beautiful and loving creator of all of this – and it’s this One we would like to talk about in our program today.

Just let me say one more thing before we begin. Buried in the release of all those diplomatic cables recently on the WikiLeaks site is some clear admissions from the U.S. Military and CIA that they are engaging in a series of actions designed to increase apathy among the world’s population so that leaders can ignore voters and a very nefarious agenda can be implemented.

I think this is linked with our loss of hope, and that means it’s all linked to our loss of contact with true spirituality and God. So here at Christmastime 2010, let’s consider the modern relevance of God. After you’ve listened, if you have comments, I’d love to hear them: rich@richjonesvoice.com

Dr. Claudia Bernhardt Pacheco from Norberto Keppe’s International Society of Analytical Trilogy joins me. Keppe’s science allows us a deep perspective on all the important issues of human existence. And this one today is perhaps the most important.

Drugs, Mind Control and the Medicine of the Soul

A therapeutic show today on how to understand our distorted society – never more evident than after the shootings in Tucson – and how it’s led by the pathological economic power structure, especially looking at how they promote and use drugs in nefarious ways. Therapeutic because of the vital consciousness of this corruption brought by social scientist, Norberto Keppe. His perspective of what a true society would be is energizing. Plus a look at the medicine of the soul as well with Dr. Roberto Giraldo. Enjoy.

Where our Health Really Comes From

Sartre proposed that hell was the other people, and maybe we took that too much to heart. So we build walls to keep out the Mexicans, we stone the "terrible" married women who sleep around, we blame everyone but ourselves for our troubles.

And perhaps one of the most pernicious areas dominated by the "problem comes from outside" mentality is health.

Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, Where our Health Really Comes From.

Every couple of days I receive a great e-newsletter from Dr. Mercola. It's chock full of great information - too much for me to keep up with, frankly. But there's lots of good stuff in there about how GM foods are taking over, the dangers of artificial sweeteners and fluoride and even vaccines. It's invaluable stuff.

It struck me, however, how materialistic it is, and so limited because of this. So many details about nutrition, like simple secrets to better digestive health, the things men can do to tweak their prostate health, amazing tonics and teas and supplements. Oh, were it that easy, right? It seems we are addicted to looking for solutions outside.

My father, who's 86 now, has a health food store in his bedroom. Exotic things like shark cartilage, Komodo bearded dragon dusting powder, leucistic sugar gliders. Man's search for healing medicinal tonics is centuries old. This desperate drive to find our health answers outside has been exploited by many snake-oil salesmen among others - including the first Rockefellers. The father of J.D., J.D. being the oil robber baron everyone knows about, was well known for bottling a strange concoction and travelling all over America palming off bottled raw petroleum as a magical elixir he assured the gullible would cure everything from gas to cancer. His son, the very same J.D., was suitably impressed by this - especially when he realized it cost only $2.00 a barrel to concoct the elixir from crude petroleum, and that barrel would produce 1000 - 6 oz. bottles of the stuff. He labelled it Nujol, and sold it as a cure for constipation back in the 1920s.

We're so desperate to find the origins of our illnesses that we'll spend a fortune looking for magic from outside. This fear of things outside reached its zenith in the 20th century with Darwin's theory. If we're all animals, it must be a jungle out there, so eat or be eaten my friend. And look at all the disastrous collateral damage of that inverted view.

Louis Pasteur kicked into action at the end of the 19th century with th etheory that disease would originate from germs formed outside - and this took off because of the huge support of the burgeoning pharmaceutical industry that would make billions selling medicines to kill those offending germs outside. And we'd forget all about the amazing work of Antoine Bechamp, Pasteur's contemporary and a far superior scientist to Louis, who arrived at exactly opposite conclusions from his rival.

This battle is a fascinating one, actually, that we'll dive into a little today with Dr. Claudia Bernhardt Pacheco, a world-renowned author, psychoanalyst, and pioneer in psychosomatic medicine from Dr. Keppe's International Society of Analytical Trilogy.

Power and the Loss of Ideals

How many times have we seen it? You're best friends with someone at work when suddenly they get promoted. After this move upstairs, they don't want to know you. They become aloof and unapproachable - almost like they've become somebody else. What's actually happening is that the new power has liberated the pathology that always existed. They've started the very self-destructive process of selling out.

Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, Power and the Loss of Ideals.

"Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely," was how Lord Acton supposedly put it back in the 19th century. But like Shakespeare's famous "To be or not to be," most have never heard what the insightful Lord Acton said next. It was, "Great men are almost always bad men."

Of course, this last would depend on how you define great men. If you limit that definition to men or women of material accomplishments only, perhaps. But it's difficult to ascribe the word "bad" to those of a more altruistic and benevolent nature. Gandhi, Mozart, Puccine, Da Vinci, Mother Theresa, Jesus - it would be difficult to accuse them of evil.

But there appears to be something that happens to those who are linked too much to power. And this is something Dr. Norberto Keppe has explored substantially in his writing - particularly in his book, Liberation of the People: the Pathology of Power, where Keppe turns his keen psychoanalytic mind on what goes on in power situations. He goes so far as to say, "The well balanced individual is not interested in having power. Only those who are extremely sick become attached to positions of power and command so as to counterbalance their psychological shortcomings."

In this sense, Keppe is going a huge step beyond the usual, "Oh, he's crazy," which is normally how we denominate those in power who do ridiculous things. Keppe is analyzing this psychologically, and is therefore providing a scientific view that goes well beyond the typical ideological divisions that govern whether we see a political or business move as positive or negative. And he points to this pathology of power as being the fundamental factor in our inverted and disturbed social life as well. In his book, Sociopathology, he puts it this way: "The core of sociopathology is the desire for power. Any individual who has unlimited power inevitably creates serious disorder because he is able to give free rein to all of his psychopathology."

This really moves the debate to an area more linked to reason and analysis, rather than just the usual emotional venting that occurs when talking about societal leadership.

This is leading edge psychological work that Keppe is developing here. We put up some interesting stuff about the pathology of power on our site at www.healingthroughconsciousness.com. Check it out and let me know what you think. rich@richjonesvoice.com

Dr. Claudia Bernhardt Pacheco from Keppe's International Society of Analytical Trilogy is here today to continue our discussion on power - particularly as linked to the loss of idealism and romanticism.

Diagnosing the Sickness of Power

Their idea is that they're indispensable. Most of us think the same thing. There's a general belief that without those in power, we'd have no one to protect us or look after our needs.

But past citizens had a wiser view. They knew that those in power could be dangerous if not controlled.

Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, Diagnosing the Sickness of Power.

In a love sonnet, Shakespeare praised those that have power to hurt and yet will do none. And oh, wouldn't it be fine to encounter that some day in a political figure. But more and more it seems they fail us again and again, and, like the football team down 28 - 0 at the half needs to re-consider its game plan, so, too, do we need to look with fresh eyes at power and the powerful.Thankfully, there's a vast body of literature and analysis of all things human that accomplishes that much-needed perspective. And that's the remarkable science of Analytical Trilogy developed by a noteworthy Brazilian scientist named Norberto Keppe.

When I first came across Keppe's exploration of the pathology of power in his book, Liberation of the People, I was in my early '40s and locked into my career and feathering my nest, as most of us think of doing. But something in that book spoke deep to my dormant idealism and re-kindled the spark that lies inside all of us.

I think it was that part right at the beginning where Keppe states, "We want to summon all of you who have a practical nature, all who possess idealism and dynamism, all who believe in goodness, truth and beauty, to unite so that a new world can be built, a new society: the true Kingdom of Man on earth."

Wow. Gives me a rush even today. So 9 years ago, I packed all my stuff into a storage locker in Toronto and schlepped it on down here to Brazil to discover for myself the cause of all the depth charges going off inside me every time I read Keppe's work.

I'd like to share a little bit of that with you today, and if it lights your fire, invite you to get in contact with me so we can explore what we can do together to bring this idealism to more people, and through resonance with these like-minded people, contribute towards this Kingdom of Man on earth.

Dr. Claudia Bernhardt Pacheco is uniquely qualified to talk about the pathology of power. She lived through considerable attacks from the powerful in North America and Europe, not to mention Brazil, who didn't like what she and Keppe were publishing and teaching. She's here with me today.

The Marriage of Theology and Science

Oil and water. Cats and sweaters. Neckties and table fans. Some things just aren't made to go together. Like being given plastic cutlery at a Brazilian barbecue restaurant, they're incongruous and difficult to reconcile. Some more profound examples could include faith and doubt, humility and self-confidence. And what about God and science?

Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, the Marriage of Theology and Science.

This is a prickly subject. I'm aware of that. But I feel I would be doing a dis-service to you who listen faithfully to this program if I didn't address the subject. Because there are fundamental questions to raise that can only be addressed if we wade into these uncertain waters.

What is the origin of life and the universe? What is the purpose of life? These are the questions that perhaps should occupy our dinner conversations with dear friends much more than they do. Especially in recent years. And in large part, I think this is because science has split from theology and philosophy over the past 500 years or so - culminating in our 20th Century position that there's no way to marry science and theology. Science has become a strictly materialistic pursuit perfectly represented in Einstein's famous formula - the most famous of the 20th Century - that E=mc2. No material, no energy is the inevitable conclusion of this equation, making Einstein's proposal one of the most materialistic theories in the history of science.

And it's also difficult to distill spirituality from the Quantum Physics camp. Parallel realities. Alternate universes. Unlimited realities awaiting your choice to come into being. How to make sense of that in any practical way? I watched What the Bleep do we Know a couple of times and, I must confess, couldn't make head or tails of it.

The Architect's speech from Matrix Reloaded is a classic example of how confused we've become by this separation of science and theology. Critics call it "profound" but "confusing". And it is that. Listen:

"The first matrix was perfect ... flawless, sublime. A triumph equaled only by its monumental failure."

What does that mean? No, we need a better starting point than this. A starting place that can be found in the work of Norberto Keppe. His Analytical Trilogy is a re-synthesis of science with philosophy and theology that has been missing. Keppe considers philosophy to be the mother of science and theology the grandmother, and it's very illuminating to look at reality through Analytical Trilogy eyes.

Let's do that today ... try to bring the incredible wisdom from 5000 years of theological and philosophical study back into science. Or at least, start the process of understanding that. Keppe's books will fill out the knowledge. If you're interested in more, write me at rich@richjonesvoice.com.

One of the discoveries here at the International Society of Analytical Trilogy is the application of Keppe's disinverson of metaphysics to result in the Keppe Motor, and we'll start our conversation there with Dr. Claudia Bernhardt Pacheco.

How do you see the Keppe Motor's importance, Claudia, in this consideration of bringing theology back into science?

HAARP and Mind Control

It was conducted in the shadows, far from any scrutiny. It began in the '50s and was apparently stopped in the '70s. But CIA veterans say the research continues.

You may find it hard to believe, and the whole field is dismissed as being the province of paranoid conspiracy theories, but mind control is going on.

Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, HAARP and Mind Control, part 2 in our series with Nick Begich on the HAARP technology.

You'll hear Dr. Begich make reference to MK-Ultra in this program. This was a super-secret and illegal CIA human research program run by the Office of Scientific Intelligence. This program used many drugs to manipulate individual mental states and alter brain function. It's a little difficult to get total information about it since then-CIA director, Richard Helms, ordered all the MK-Ultra files destroyed back in 1973. What were they trying to hide, do you think? That offence should be a prison sentence, shouldn't it? According to sworn testimony in front of the U.S. Congress' Church Committee in 1975, these mind control experiments were conducted without any knowledge or consent of the subjects.

There's no other way to put it ... this was a crime against humanity of the 1st degree. Of course, the U.S. hasn't been the only country traipsing through this mucky terrain, but it is perhaps the biggest democracy involved, and that should give us some pause. You'll hear a little bit more about this in our program today, but I would recommend that you research it a little more. It's pretty horrific stuff, but essential to know about. MK-Ultra is the illegal CIA program you're looking for.

And in the middle of this sickness, where the sickest people control our political and economic structures, comes Norberto Keppe's Analytical Trilogy, with its beautifully conceived science that gives us a way to understand these crazy things we see around us. His clear view of human psychopathology is extremely well articulated in all of his many books, and his explorations of how we the people have given power to these unbalanced powerful people in charge is food for thought. We have to wake up, and fast, and start giving more value to those inner aspects of our essential structure - goodness, truth, beauty, dignity, ethics. Right now, we're all pretty lost in this inverted worldview that puts money above work and aggression above conciliation and dialogue. And technology at the service of whatever perverted idea the men and women in the shadows want to dream up. Which is the subject of our program today.

Email me if I can help you with any more information at all about any of our topics on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head.

Playing the Haarp

They've been put forward as the causes of all manner of mayhem in modern folklore and even Radio and TV shows and movies. The Shadow People that have been summoned from the beyond through black magic practices and that terrorize us while we conduct our daily lives.

It's too much for our program to delve into the supernatural occurrences of the Shadow People ... but the real life men in the shadows? Let's go.

Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, Part I of Playing the Haarp - an investigation into one of the U.S. government's Black Budget projects that has very dire ramifications for humanity and planet Earth.

The Black Budget. What is that? Michael E. Salla from the Center for Global Peace at American University in Washington, D.C., says,

"The CIA has the unique legal ability among all US government departments and agencies to generate funds through appropriations of other federal government agencies and other sources 'without regard to any provisions of law' and without regard to the intent behind Congressional appropriations. Every year, billions of dollars of Congressional appropriations are diverted from their Congressionally sanctioned purposes to the CIA and Department of Defense-based intelligence agencies without knowledge of the public and with the collusion of Congressional leaders. The covert world of ‘black programs’ acts with virtual impunity, overseen and regulated by itself, funding itself through secret slush funds, and is free of the limitations that come from Congressional oversight, proper auditing procedures and public scrutiny."

He goes on to say that the CIA black budget is annually in the vicinity of 1.1 trillion dollars – pretty high considering that the DoD budget for 2010 is something like 664 billion dollars.

Now, these are figures - statistics - and one thing we should know about stats is that they can be used in any way you want to use them. But one thing is clear - there are gobs of dollars floating around that appear to be outside any Congressional oversight. And that should make us pause. Because that money is being used by men and women in the shadows to do all sorts of stuff - and I don't have much confidence that these enormous sums are in the hands of people with good intentions or even competence. If the disaster of BP's Gulf of Mexico oil spill is anything to go by, any illusions of corporate or government competence should be dashed forever.

Brazilian psychoanalyst and social scientist, Norberto Keppe, has written about this extensively over the past 50 years, and today more than ever we'd be wise to take heed of what he says.

But let me warn you ... what he says is not for the faint of heart. Let me also stress, however, that Keppe follows scientific principles in his analysis. He's the world's foremost expert on the human psyche, his conclusions arrived at after 50 years of research and clinicial experience. He has seen the attitutes he describes in his over 30 books in action.

In his 17th book, Liberation of the People, written prophetically 24 years ago, Keppe provides an incisive analysis of the pathology of power. This book tells it like it is. Listen:

"Generally speaking, the adminstrators of power must be endowed with consdierable aggressiveness and above all must be Machiavellian, people who go to any extreme to make greater and greater profit. Peole with no compassion whatsoever. This is the mentality of those who lead the world."

Is it possible to have peace on Earth with such aggression? Keppe's inevitable conclusions whos us the inverted psyche we all have, and how those in powere have more serious imbalance and sickness. So his book is a must read for any who are still laboring under the impression that those in power have good intentions for we the people. They don't, and they keep many of their projects and processes in the shadows.

Keppe's book is available to all. rich@richjonesvoice.com if you're interested in how to get a copy. Keppe's had to publish independently. The powerful who control the media and publishing industry don't want his landmark discoveries getting out through traditional means.

One of the very dangerous projects being kept in the shadows is the HAARP program, and today my colleague, Susan Berkley, begins a 2-part series into this scary and secret program.

The Relevance of God in our Modern Society

A listener asked me recently, "Why is it necessary to speak of God." Then she went on, "We have to see this God or whatever it is in relation to all that is valid and workable in science."

I agree. Because whatever you call Him - God, energy, the Great Spirit - the world is poorer by excluding Him.

Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, The Relevance of God in our Modern Society.

And as I launch into this program, I am fully aware of the heat this will cause in some circles. One of the distinguishing aspects of our modern society is the almost certain guarantee that if you talk openly about the need to introduce God into human affairs, you are sure to raise howls of protest and derision in many circles. God, it seems, is considered at best old fashioned and quaint, as if talking about Him suggests you're a child who needs the comfort of fairy-tale proverbs about miracles and salvation to help you sleep at night, and at worst like you are a dangerous Bible thumping lunatic spouting Biblical scripture in answer to any dilemma and leading any who follow into a mind-controlling cult.

I feel this keenly whenever I enter into this subject here on the program. I'm a modern Canadian, after all ... a baby-booming WASP raised with the requisite Darwinian scientific education. I remember wll how I felt when listening to the religuous people who came knowcking on my door on Saturday morning.

I do believe we have been fed a very distorted story about God, and that we are very out of touch with a meaningful understanding of God and the nature of Man and the universe. To the point where we now have knee-jerk reactions when we face this issuethat have nothing to do with reason. My colleague, Sofie Bergqvist, talked in a previous podcast, Liberating Ourselves From our Free Will, about this when she told a sotry about an immigrant student in her Swedish high school who innocently stated in Biology class that she didn't hold to Darwin's theory and instead believed that God had created the world and all in it. Sofie's classmates were predictably cruel in meting out their justice for this heresy. They simply shunned the girl. No one talked to her, no one invited her to parties, no one had anything to do with her.

It's not difficult for me to see the same thing happening in my native Canada. Ad we are countries, Canada and Sweden, who consider ourselves paragons of tolerance. But let me tell you, my dear, northern, first-world, modern compatriots - that primitive shunning and ex-communication would never happen in Brazil.

Another of my colleagues, a Brazilian, was conducting a Portuguese class for a group of foreigners trying to learn the language when the subject of belief came up. One of the students started to speak about his belief in God and how he thought it was important for the human being to have contact with this spirituality. A fellow student - from France - rose up in protest and started the standard put-down that I don't need to describe.

"Whoa, hold on a minute," my colleague said firmly. "You're in Brazil now. Here, we don't attack others for their beliefs or lack of belief. We're not like you in the first world. Here, we respect a person's right to have his beliefs, even if they're different from ours."

Dead silence from the French woman. Message received.

When I came to Brazil 9 years ago, I remember teaching an English class where one of the students began to speak about his faith, and I said, "You mean, you can talk about these things here?!" The students laughed good-naturedly. Another ignorant foreigner lost in political correctness and censorship.

The good news today is, my dear listener, that we can begin again to consider a scientific view of God through the remarkable work of Brazilian psychoanalyst and social scientist, Dr. Norberto Keppe, whose science of Analytical Trilogy is a re-union of science with philosophy and, can you believe it, theology to give us a vast, deep and comprehensive view of the human being and the society in which he lives. Keppe's work is a vital contribution to the intellectual treasure of human civilization.

And if you'd like to know more beyond this podcast, there are many resources on our Trilogy portal. And please communicate with me directly so I can keep you posted about any news from our International Society of Analytical Trilogy ... rich@richjonesvoice.com

Waking the Sleeping Tiger

The term's been trotted out by sound bite trained military commanders trying to come up with a fitting image for describing the enemy. Like the Japanese admiral who reflected after Pearl Harbor, "Perhaps we've just awakened a sleeping tiger."

It's always used to point to a condition of potential that waits, dozing in the wings, for its hour upon the stage.

But in today's desperate world, we need the sleeping tiger to get its butt into gear.

Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, Waking the Sleeping Tiger.

This program, I hope, will be a clarion call to all who have a spark still burning in the embers of their idealism. As there was for me when I read Norberto Keppe's seminal book for idealists the world over, Liberation of the People: the Pathology of Power. This book was a beacon for me because of its scientific analysis of our inverted social structure which has led us so far from anything remotely resembling a just situation. This book is a searing critique that manages to give us hope even while it's pointing out the sickness and destruction that has come at our hands. Because Keppe's book speaks to a deeper level in us than just revolutionary fervor like that "off with their heads" blood lust that perverted ideals behind the French Revolution.

Keppe speaks to universal values like tolerance and dignity while shining an unwavering critical eye on the causes of our current desperate impasse, while continuing to suggest reasonable and rational solutions to our dilemma which we could put into practice immediately to great effect.

He also has some extremely important things to say about the pathology of power, and how power is controlled by the sickest individuals on the planet - something that's never been understood well because of our admiration for the rich and famous that stems from our Inversion and envy, which he outlines in this book, and because the powerful manipulate everything in secret so that everything goes to their favor and not the favor of the vast majority of human beings.

We quite simply don't get the full story in our media and halls of education and so remain ignorant of this nefarious situation. This, of course, is what I'm trying to address through this program. And what Norberto Keppe has been trying to address for decades through his books and TV and radio programs.

Our program today will be a wake up call - we hope - for any of you with dreams for a just society still burning, however dimly, beneath your breast. Keppe's science of Analytical Trilogy offers real hope for a way back from the abyss.

I'd like to make Keppe's monumental book, Liberation of the People, available to you free of charge. I'll only ask you to help with mailing costs. We'll foot the rest. I think if enough people can get up to speed with Keppe's ideas in this book, really start to resonate with them, we're not too late to effect real change on this planet.

Email me if you'd like a free copy of Liberation of the People. And one other thing ... our psychosocial forum May 13 - 15, 2010 here in São Paulo will be another good thing for you to know about. Check out the site.

Today, psychosocial therapist, Gilbert Gambucci, joins me to try to wake up the sleeping tiger.

The Prison of Victimhood

It is enticing to follow its seductive lure. "It's not your fault. You couldn't help it. There was nothing you could do." These are the beguiling voices we hear.

Victims drive the ratings on daytime TV, after all. Blaming, finger pointing, laying on the guilt - so common, so righteous, so ... convenient.

And so wrong.

Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, freeing ourselves from the Prison of Victimhood.

Now you who are regular listeners to Thinking with Somebody Else's Head will already have a good idea which side of this theme we're goint to come down on, don't you? Our program, based as it is on the cutting edge psychological research coming out of the Brazilian school of Analytical Trilogy, could do nothing other than focus the discussion inward. Because that's where the trail inevitably leads.

Norberto Keppe, the scientist behind the profound work coming out of Analytical Trilogy these days - and it is formidable indeed, in the areas of education and medicine and economics and physics - Keppe puts forward the idea that we have contact with all the magnificence and glory of Creation through our inner selves, that beautiful atmosphere of universal knowledge and wisdom that resides within each one of us. Plato called it the world of infused knowledge, meaning intelligence and savvy that we are born with. In Keppe's language, these universal knowings within would be divine concepts inside the human mind.

And this opens the door to a staggering thought given all the modern science that points in the opposite direction, and that is that we are not creatures who are evolving to greater intelligence and knowledge at all, but we are instead creations with all possible understanding already infused in us. And coming to re-discover that is an inner journey.

There is already evidence of the presence of this native intelligence and sense of ethics from our very beginning as babies in excellent research coming out of the Infant Cognitive Center at Yale and University of California at Berkley professor, Alison Gopnik's studies into the Philosophical Baby, and they've reached fascinating conclusions about the rich and intelligent inner life of babies from the beginning.

All of this to say that it's by treading the inner path that we really come to know reality, not through our external machinations. Not to say we don't gain substantial wisdom from our experiences - of course we do - but I mean that it's through this outer contact that we come to know ourselves, that self that already exists and is not simply a product of our outer experience.

Which is what Socrates was contending 2500 years ago.

So victimhood, that state of being shaped and fashioned by our outer traumas, can be re-considered, which is exactly what we'll do today. Helena Mellander, a frequent contributor to Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, is a Swedish journalist who's been having quite an impact with her new blog in Swedish written with our colleague, educator Sofie Bergqvist. Helena wrote about this recently to interesting discussion from the Swedish community.
