#Dartmoor in #springtime. The landscape of Dartmoor is quite varied although it is geologically a #granite intrusion into the Earth's crust it has been shaped by weathering, erosion and human intervention, such as #agriculture and #forestry. Here we see a #river #valley in the background and a #TreeStump in the foreground. The weather was as benign as can be expected there as you can tell by the blue #sky and light clouds.

George W. Hunt, “How The Press Lied About The #Murder of #Ilya #Zhitomirskiy”:

This story caught my eye. Please read the headlines in this article about “ #Diaspora” #founder Mr. #IlyaZhitomirsky.

The headline mentions a “suicide note”, Therefore one is led to believe that there was a suicide note. Actually,

"always knew this , shame only very few use this tool he gave us "

Ilya did not write a suicide note: Ilya was killed by suffocation (lack of oxygen) according to the San Francisco Coroner. He did NOT commit suicide; he was smothered to death. Murdered by “unknown parties”

as the S.F. may now finally say.

I believe his murder was instigated by the #billionaires and venture capitalists of #Silicon #Valley who may have perceived that the “Diaspora” software could destroy their long-term target plan to create an international social site monopoly. They could lose trillions of dollars if Ilya’s advanced privacy and security social site interfered with their sociopath lusts for #money, power and “1984”.

A solution to their problem (if these people were actually involved: I’m only surmising) was to make a generous offer first and , if declined, kill Ilya Zhitomirsky. A massive #media #cover-up was pre-arranged with little or no mention of murder. The press did a good job. No mention of “possible murder” with the exception of the police who said the Coroner would determine if it was a murder or a suicide. Out of 45 press releases I reviewed, no mention of a “possible murder” was posed. Hmm.
A skim-reader might read the words “suicide note” in the headlines and leave an impression that if Ilya left a suicide note he therefore committed suicide. The journalist who wrote the story certainly knew that there was no suicide note, yet he implied that there was a suicide note in the headline he chose. How strange. Do journalists get paid on the side for planting such disinformation?

There was NO suicide note– but it did say“suicide note” in the headlines, didn’t it ?

If one takes the time to read the full article the only reference to a suicide note was this silly reference to another person and contriving an opportunity to bring “suicide note” into the headline. Now we can see where the clever journalist created an opportunity to lead the readers astray.

Inna Zhitomirskaya, mother of Ilya:

I strongly believe that if Ilya did not start this [Diaspora] project and stayed in school, he would be well and alive today.

Thanks Ivan

Playing with the Waves

Pacific Ocean

"The gently winding trail, slightly more than two miles in each direction, passes through several micro-environments, including meadows, low mountains, stands of redwoods and eucalyptus, a lagoon, a beach and cove and, at the endpoint, the world's largest ocean.

In the spring and summer, wildflowers abound on the trail, and deer, frogs, various birds and other wildlife can often be sighted. The trail is open to pedestrians and bicyclists.

The first half-mile or so of the trail is paved, giving way to a dirt path. The trail in the distance, though, is a different, much steeper trail. Soon after the pavement turns to dirt, low mountains rise into view. Wildflowers can be seen on both sides of the trail.

The trail passes through meadows after the halfway mark. Along the way, one can see several patches of horsetails, one of the oldest, fundamentally unchanged plants in the world. Named because of their resemblance to horses' tails, they have been around for over 300 million years, and are related to no other plants.

Nearing the end of the trail, the lagoon comes into view, with the Pacific Ocean beyond."
