10 Cara Tingkatkan Daya Ingat

VisionNet – Sebenarnya otak tidak pernah kehilangan daya ingat. Otak dapat merekam segala sesuatu seperti halnya komputer. Meskipun, masalah kehilangan daya ingat bisa terjadi karena kita tidak mempraktekan untuk mengingat informasi sehingga memori yang kita miliki bisa hilang.
Otak seperti bagian tubuh yang lain membutuhkan latihan fisik dan mental bersama-sama dengan nutrisi khusus untuk meningkatkan kekuatan daya ingat. Berikut 10 hal yang bisa dilakukan untuk menjaga daya ingat tetap baik:
Kedelai
Menurut Prof. Sandra File dari Guy’s Hospital, London, kedelai mengandung isoflavones yang dapat bertindak sebagai reseptor estrogen dalam otak manusia, terutama dalam hippocampus sebagai area penting untuk memori sehingga bentuk hubungan saraf baru lebih siap.
Zat besi
Penelitian di Kings College, London dan Universitas Rochester New York menunjukkan bahwa penurunan konsumsi zat besi dapat memiliki dampak detrimental pada tingkat IQ dan fungsi kognitif karena jat besi memainkan peranan penting dalam merubah signal dalam otak.
Kopi
Kopi dapat meningkatkan penampilan mental dan memori karena kopi dapat merangsang banyak daerah dalam otak yang dapat mengatur tetap terjaga, rangsangan, mood dan konsentrasi. Penelitian di Universitas Arizona ditemukan bahwa orang dewasa yang minum kopi sebelum test memori menunjukkan perkembangan yang signifikan dibanding mereka yang minum kopi tanpa kafein.
Latihan Mental
Penelitian menunjukkan bahwa rangsangan mental dapat menjaga otak sehat dan meningkatkan kekuatan daya ingat. Orang yang memiliki daya ingat bagus cenderung memiliki berbagai keinginan dan dapat mengatasi tantangan latihan mental. Latihan mental dapat menggunakan teknik seperti puzzle, teka-teki dan minat pada bidang sosial dan budaya.
Latihan fisik
Setengah jam melakukan latihan fisik sebanyak tiga kali dalam seminggu cukup berdampak pada peningkatan kekuatan otak. Olah raga dapat memperbaiki kemampuan jantung untuk memompa darah lebih efektif.
Mengunyah permen karet
Para peneliti Jepang menemukan bahwa aktifitas dalam hippocampus mengalami peningkaan saat orang sedang mengunyah permen karet. Tetapi Dr. Andrew Scholey dari Universitas Nothumbria mengatakan bahwa mengunyah permen karet dapat meningkatkan denyut jantung sehingga memperbaiki oksigen yang dikirim ke otak dan meningkatkan kekuatan kognitif.
Ginkgo biloba
Ginkgo biloba digunakan sebagai obat penguat daya ingat selam beribu-ribu tahun yang lalu. Menurut Dr. George Lewith ginkgo dapat memperbaiki sirkulasi darah ke otak dengan membesarkan pembuluh darah sehingga meningkatkan suplai oksigen.
Minyak ikan
Minyak ikan banyak mengandung asam lemak omega 3 yang merupakan komponen penting dari membran sel otak dan dapat memperbaiki kekuatan daya ingat.
Rosemary dan sage
Minyak dari tumbuhan ini dapat merangsang memori, memperkuat kejernihan dan kesadaran dan membantu menyembuhkan kecapaian mental.
Vitamin B
Vitamin B berfungsi mengirimkan oksigen ke otak dan memberikan perlindungan terhadap kerusakan bebas. Vitamin B mempertajam dan meningkatkan daya ingat.
Niacin atau B3 sangat baik untuk memperkuat otak, sementara B6 penting untuk memproduksi neurotransmitter terutama untuk meningkatkan mood. B12 baik untuk kesehatan otak secara keseluruhan. Vitamain B juga dibutuhkan untuk membantu tubuh membentuk acetylcholine, suatu bahan kimia otak yang dibutuhkan untuk daya ingat.
Penyakit Lupa & Rahasia Menguatkan Daya Ingat
Hal-hal yang bisa menyebabkan penyakit lupa:
- Makan kepala ikan
- Organ dalam binatang seperti hati. Limpa, jantung, perut dan yang sejsenisnya kecuali atas nasihat dokter untuk keperluan kesehatan.
- Makan Makanan yang tercemar oleh semut karena semut dipercaya mengandungi sejenis kimia yang menyebabkan daya ingatan menjadi lemah.
- Jangan makan berlebihan
- Jangan minum air antara suapan makan. Maksudnya, jangan minum
sebelum anda selesai makan.
Selain dari itu, hindari benturan yang kuat pada kepala. Benturan di kepala yang kuat dan terlalu sering akan mengakibatkan kadar sejenis bahan kimia yang disebut dopamin akan berkurang di dalam sel-sel otak. Lalu mengakibatkan daya ingat yang lemah.
Rahasia Menguatkan Daya Ingat
Untuk menguatkan daya ingat,dengan rahmat dan kasih sayang Allah SWT, kita dikurniakan makanan yang baik dan dapat menguatkan sistem saraf kita. Diantara jenis makanan yang bisa meningkatkan fungsi ingatan adalah:
- Buah anggur hitam
- Madu lebah
- Susu
- Air zam zam
- Kismis
- Jus wortel & madu
- Kurma
- Ikan tuna
- Tempe
Itu hanyalah sebagian dari makanan yang bisa meningkatkan daya ingatan manusia.
Selain dari itu, oksigen juga amat penting untuk merangsang otak supaya senantiasa cekatan dan cerdas. Satu teknik mengawali pernafasan yang amat baik diamalkan adalah dengan menarik nafas sebanyak 7 hitungan, kemudian tahan nafas sebanyak 14 hitungan. Lakukan terus hal ini terutama ketika sedang letih.

The Eagles - Hotel California

On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of colitas, rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
I had to stop for the night
There she stood in the doorway;
I heard the mission bell
And I was thinking to myself,
'this could be heaven or this could be hell'
Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way
There were voices down the corridor,
I thought I heard them say...

Welcome to the hotel california
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the hotel california
Any time of year, you can find it here

Her mind is tiffany-twisted, she got the mercedes bends
She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys, that she calls friends
How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat.
Some dance to remember, some dance to forget

So I called up the captain,
'please bring me my wine'
He said, 'we haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixty nine'
And still those voices are calling from far away,
Wake you up in the middle of the night
Just to hear them say...

Welcome to the hotel california
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely face
They livin' it up at the hotel california
What a nice surprise, bring your alibis

Mirrors on the ceiling,
The pink champagne on ice
And she said 'we are all just prisoners here, of our own device'
And in the master's chambers,
They gathered for the feast
The stab it with their steely knives,
But they just can't kill the beast

Last thing I remember, I was
Running for the door
I had to find the passage back
To the place I was before
'relax,' said the night man,
We are programmed to receive.
You can checkout any time you like,
But you can never leave!

Bin Laden & The 911 Illusion: Secret Societies & Masterminds












Part III
(Excerpted from Chapter 20: Big Oil & Their Bankers…)
The Secret Handshake
The Eight Families banking cartel and their Four Horsemen progeny find Islamic fundamentalism quite compatible with the global monopoly capitalism from which they derive their immense wealth. Both ideologies advocate centralized control, intolerance of opposition, rule by decree and a return to feudalistic rule by monarchy. They share common enemies in nationalism and socialism, which seek to redistribute ill-gotten wealth and power.
Throughout history the "Illuminati bankers" have created Islamist provocateurs to terrorize popular nationalist movements that aimed to wrest control over their nations from the bankers’ IMF/World Bank program of global domination. The most recent examples of this are playing out in both Libya and Syria. But this is an ancient alliance.
The Knights Templar worked with the Muslim Brotherhood Assassins to carry out Crusade-era plots against Saracen Muslim nationalists. The founder of the Assassins was Hasan bin Sabah, who shares names with the Kuwaiti ruling Hashemite clan. The latter had been employed by the British to repel the Turks from the oil-rich Persian Gulf region by the end of the 18th Century.
After WWII CIA Director Allen Dulles- cousin of the Rockefellers- cut a deal with the Muslim Brotherhood-Benoist-Mechin- whose power center lies within the Wahhabist House of Saud. The deal was cut in Lausanne, Switzerland. (1)
The Eight Families and their surrogate intelligence agencies backed Islamic fundamentalists during the CIA overthrow of the leftist Sukarno government in Indonesia in 1964. [2]

When the Shah of Iran was deposed, the CIA and British intelligence provided fundamentalist Ayatollah Khomeini with a list of leftist Tudeh Party leaders whom they wished exterminated.

In Afghanistan, the CIA launched its biggest covert operation since Vietnam, a $3.8 billion campaign which backed Gulbuddin Hekmatyar’s Hezbi-i Isbmi acid-throwing extremists in their proxy war against a succession of socialist governments in Kabul. These Frankensteins were then deployed throughout Central Asia and the Balkans to terrorize governments unfriendly to Four Horsemen and Eight Families hegemony.
Israeli Mossad used the fundamentalist Hamas as a fifth column against the nationalistic Palestinian President Yasser Arafat and has funded Egyptian Islamic Jihad along with fundamentalists in Jordan. [3]

Former Egyptian President Anwar Sadat- a staunch banker ally- encouraged Islamists in his country as a counterbalance to pro-Nasser leftist groups.

CIA-backed Islamists in Somalia tore that country apart for Big Oil. The House of Saud finances most of these efforts.
In 1996, according to the London Observer, British MI6 used al Qaeda operatives in Libya in an attempt to assassinate nationalist President Mohamar Qaddafi.
Osama bin Laden supervised the building of CIA terrorist training camps at Khost and held accounts at BCCI. He did so as an emissary of the Muslim Brotherhood House of Saud, once stating, “To counter these atheist Russians, the Saudis chose me as their representative in Afghanistan. I set up my first camp where these volunteers were trained by Pakistani and American officers. The weapons were supplied by the Americans, the money by the Saudis.”[4]
Is it any wonder that 15 of the 19 hijackers on 911 were Saudi? Or that 24 members of the bin Laden family were allowed to fly on private jets to a “secret assembly point in Texas” shortly after 911, when all other air traffic in the US was grounded, so that the family could evacuate to Saudi Arabia. Raytheon even provided a jet which carried Saudi royals from Tampa to Lexington, KY. No Saudis were held for questioning by the FBI. On the evening of 911, Saudi Prince Bandar- House of Saud point man in funding CIA covert operations for decades- stood smoking a cigar on the White House balcony alongside President Bush. [5]
Agha Khan is the spiritual leader of the Muslim Brotherhood, whose modern-day tentacles include the House of Saud, Hamas, Egyptian Islamic Jihad, the Shi’ite Ismaili sect, Louis Farrakhan’s Muslim Brotherhood and al Qaeda. The House of Saud serves as financier to all of these neo-Crusaders.
The Eight Families emerged from a tangle of secret societies- Freemasons, Knights Templar, Teutonic Knights, Rosicrucians, Cabalist Order of Melchizidek, Knights of Malta and Knights of St. John’s Jerusalem. These groups also descend from the Sumerian and Egyptian Brotherhood of the Snake, later carrying out the political machinations of the Genoese banking families who funded the expansion of the Roman Empire and who now control the City of London.
The fortunes of the Muslim Brotherhood House of Saud became intertwined with those of the "Illuminati Bankers" when ARAMCO discovered oil in the Kingdom in 1938. From this moment forward the old Crusader pals reunited, working together to control the world using oil as their centerpiece. While the House of Saud represents the Muslim Brotherhood, the Saudi branch of Freemasonry is concentrated among ARAMCO executives and the SAMA “White Father” bankers. Other Gulf State Hashemite rulers were cut into the Illuminati/Muslim Brotherhood global petro-hegemony scheme in 1981 with the formation of the GCC.
In late November 2002 Newsweek reporter Michael Isakoff broke a story revealing that Princess Haifa- wife of Saudi Ambassador Prince Bandar- had written checks to two Saudi intermediaries, who delivered the proceeds to two of the alleged 911 hijackers. Within days of the revelations, the two Saudis were allowed to leave the US before a credible investigation of the money trail had even gotten under way. Senator Joseph Lieberman (D-CT) accused the Bush Administration of protecting the House of Saud by blocking a meaningful investigation into Saudi involvement in 911. Leaders of a Joint Congressional Task Force investigating 911 accused both the FBI and CIA of withholding classified documents from their probe.
It was Bandar who twenty years earlier had personally donated $20 million to the Nicaraguan contras. Were his wife and the other wealthy Saudis with whom the al Qaeda money trail was intertwined, simply playing the same paymaster role the Saudis have played for the CIA for decades?
The Masterminds
Ex-Naval Intelligence officer William Cooper- author of Behold a Pale Horse- did a radio talk show in Phoenix in October 2001. Cooper lost both his legs when he was run off the road after exposing various elements of Illuminati plans for a New World Order. Now he suggested CIA and Israeli Mossad involvement in 911, naming Mossad operative Josie Hadas as the handler of the Arab patsies involved in the hijackings. Internet and cable feeds from the broadcast were immediately cut. A few days later Cooper was gunned down at 1:00 AM in his home by Maricopa County deputies. [7]
While Bush propagandists hammered home the “Arab terrorist” thesis, serving up photos of 911 “hijackers” within hours and conveniently “finding” Mohamed Atta's passport in the WTC rubble, several US agencies were quietly tracking down leads concerning Mossad spy rings active in the US on and since 911.
Israelis were detained in Detroit, Albuquerque and an unnamed West Coast city. A Ryder truck full of Israelis was caught casing Whidbey Island Naval Station in Washington. According to a May 13, 2002 Fox News report, the truck tested positive for TNT and RDX military-grade explosives. US intelligence also investigated a mysterious ring of “Israeli art students” who had infiltrated US law enforcement facilities and military bases over the past two years.
In early 2002 a group of Israelis was stopped in a Philadelphia suburb in a truck containing surveillance footage of the Sears Tower in Chicago. On 911 a group of five Israelis were detained in Hoboken, NJ for suspicious behavior. [8] The Jewish weeklyForward fingered them as Mossad agents. ABC News reported in June 2002 that a woman with an apartment near ground zero witnessed several Israelis in a white van videotaping the planes as they hit the WTC and celebrating the event.
Der Spiegel reported that a group of Mossad agents had rented an apartment near the one used by alleged 911 hijackers Mohammed Atta and Marwan al-Shehhi in Hollywood, FL just prior to 911. The Israelis conducted round-the-clock surveillance on the flight schools where Atta and al-Shehhi trained and neglected to inform US intelligence of their presence or of their activities.
Was Osama bin Laden working for Mossad or the CIA- as University of Ottawa Economics Professor Michel Chossudovsky has stated? According to John Trochmann of the Militia of Montana, bin Laden carried a “CIA-issue RC 58 Harris satellite phone” and his family was a primary backer of the CIA’s Iridium satellite tracking consortium. Did elements of the CIA and Mossad deploy 19 modern-day mind-controlled Assassins, of which 15 just happened to be from the Muslim Brotherhood Kingdom of Saudi Arabia- whose point man in funding the Afghan mujahadeen, which constitute the core of al Qaeda, was CIA agent Osama bin Laden?
What did 911 fall guy Zaccarias Mousaui mean when he told the judge at his July 25, 2002 arraignment that he was not involved in 911, but that the US government had another person in custody who was involved and that “the government knew all about 911 plans” before the tragedy took place? Why did the CIA refuse to hand over a key al Qaeda operative to the Mousaui prosecution? What don’t they want him to tell the court?
When Osama bin Laden died is irrelevant. What matters is that he died. Dead men don’t talk.
Did the CIA- using its Carlyle Group channel headed by ex-CIA Director George Bush- hatch this brutal attack to further insert US forces into Central Asia to protect the Four Horsemen Caspian Sea black goldmine, giving Israeli butchers another pretext in their occupation of Palestinian lands and promoting a new Clash of Civilizations WWIII Crusade against pesky nationalist Muslims- beginning with an invasion of oil-rich Iraq? What of the timing of the bin Laden family investments via Carlyle? Was Osama really the black sheep of the bin Laden family?
According to the French newspaper Le Figaro, the CIA met with Osama bin Laden on numerous occasions in the months before 911. In July 2001 bin Laden underwent kidney treatment at the American Hospital in Dubai, where he was visited frequently by a CIA agent. He was also visited regularly by his Saudi extended family, who apparently had not disowned Osama as Western media had us believe.
According to the Washington Post, Qazi Hussein Ahmed- leader of the Pakistan-based Jamiaat-i-Islami, which helped create the Taliban- visited CIA at Langley in July 2001. Why, the Village Voice queried, was Taliban leader Mullah Mohammed Omar’s emissary to Washington Rahmattulah Hashami rebuffed by the Bush State Department when he promised in summer 2001 to hold onto bin Laden until the CIA could apprehend him? Why, Vanity Fair asked, had the CIA turned down an earlier offer from Sudan?
Newsweek wondered why top-ranking Pentagon officials suddenly canceled flight plans for September 10th? The Wall Street Journal questioned the timing of Saudi Defense Minister Prince Sultan’s canceling of a mid-September trip to Japan and wondered why Saudi Intelligence Prince Turki al-Faisal - who was especially cozy with the Taliban and who met with Osama bin Laden regularly- suddenly resigned his post of 25 years on August 31, 2001?
While Unocal adviser and Afghan President Hamid Karzai huddled with Unocal official and Bush Afghan envoy Zalmay Khalilzad, US Ambassador to Pakistan Wendy Chamberlain busied herself meeting with Pakistan’s Oil Minister Usman Aminuddin and her Saudi counterparts to plan the new Turkmenistan-Indian Ocean trans-Afghan pipeline. In 2005 Unocal was bought by Chevron Texaco, assuring Four Horsemen control over the recently completed pipeline.
On November 28, 2001 the Bush White House quietly celebrated the official opening of the Caspian Pipeline Consortium pipeline- the Four Horsemen-owned, Bechtel-built, Mossad-guarded pipeline through Turkey to the Black Sea. Bush stated, “The CPC project also advances my Administration’s energy policy by developing a network of pipelines that includes Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan, Baku-Supsa and Baku-Novorossiysk.”
Bush’s closest confidant at the White House was said to be Condaleeza Rice, who sat on Chevron’s board before becoming a Stanford University expert on Central Asia and Kazakhstan. Did Bush bring Rice on board knowing US troops would soon headed to Central Asia? Was it mere coincidence that Uzbekistan- which Trilateral Commission founder and BP Amoco board member Brzezinski identified as the key country in his global chess game- was suddenly receiving US bases? Why did US military exercises begin in the region months before 911?
The Guardian of London reported that US Army Rangers were training in Afghan neighbor Kyrgyzstan in the summer of 2001. There were Montana media reports of Uzbek and Tajik troops training in Alaska and Montana prior to 911. In early September 2001 the British deployed thousands of troops to Oman under the guise of Operation Swift Sword, while the US sent 17,000 troops to Egypt, ostensibly to take part in Operation Bright Star. Were these forward troops deployed in anticipation of wars in Afghanistan and Iraq?
A July 2001 meeting in Berlin attended by former US Ambassador to Pakistan Tom Simmons, former Assistant Secretary of State for South Asian Affairs Karl Inderfurth and former State Department South Asian expert Lee Coldren included Russian and Pakistani intelligence officials. The US delegation informed their Pakistani and Russian counterparts of US plans to bomb Afghanistan come October 2001. [9]
Canadian Vision Television discussed the US Central Asian agenda on its January 28, 2002 program Insight Media File, which suggested CIA involvement in the 911 attacks. US Naval Intelligence Officer Lt. Delmart Vreeland had alerted Canadian authorities to the possibility of terror attacks on the US and Canada. Vreeland was en route to Russia and China to retrieve documents relating to Russian and Chinese responses to the US missile defense program.
Vreeland was detained by Canadian authorities and jailed. His 8-11-01 prison letter specifically mentions the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, the White House, the Sears Tower, the Royal Bank of Canada and the Ottawa Parliament as possible terrorist targets in the “days ahead”. His letter said the plan was to, “Let one happen. Stop the rest.” The letter was admitted as evidence for the defense by a Canadian court. The US Defense Department has confirmed Vreeland’s rank. [10]
Despite Vreeland’s warning and those of numerous governments around the world, on 911 the Air Force National Guard was ordered to stand down from standard procedure of intercepting any plane that strays from its designed flight path, much less jumbo jets flying towards the World Trade Center and Pentagon. While much political hay was made by Bush cronies about last-ditch failed attempts to scramble fighters to shoot down the planes, the fact is that fighters should have automatically intercepted those planes.
Someone in the Executive Branch had to have ordered those planes to stand down. Even when token jets were scrambled, they flew from Otis Air National Guard Base in Falmouth, MA and Langley Air Base in Hampton, VA. Meanwhile two combat-ready squadrons- the 121st Fighter Squadron of the 113th Fighter Wing and the 321st Marine Fighter Attack Squadron- sat grounded at Andrews Air Force Base, a mere fifteen miles from the Pentagon.
According to an August 22, 2002 AP story a “top US intelligence agency was planning an exercise last September 11th in which an errant aircraft would crash into one of its buildings”. The Washington Post reported on September 16, 2001 that American Flight 77, which allegedly crashed into the Pentagon, was piloted by Charles Burlingame, whose previous job was as F-4 fighter pilot for the US Navy. In this capacity Burlingame drafted an emergency response plan to the crashing of a plane into the Pentagon. The morning Burlingame’s plane apparently did just that, Pentagon medic Matt Rosenberg was studying Burlingame’s draft in Corridor 8 of the building.
Dick Cheney would have been in charge of the planned 911 “exercise”, since on May 8, 2001 he was named to head the Office of Domestic Preparedness (ODP), which would identify US vulnerabilities to domestic terrorism. Cheney’s ODP was running four different exercises on 911: Operation Northern Guardian, Operation Vigilant Guardian, Operation Vigilant Warrior and Operation Northern Vigilance.
The latter removed most fighter jets from the East Coast and sent them to Canada and Alaska. The first two simulated hijackings of commercial airliners in the Northeast. The third may have been the strike component. NORAD was briefed to expect these exercises. That morning their radars showed twenty-two hijacked planes. [11] They didn't know which ones were hijacked and which ones were part of the “exercise”.
On September 10, 2001 members of the House and Senate Intelligence Committees leaked a memo alleged lead hijacker Mohammed Atta sent to the man US intelligence deems the mastermind of 911- Khalid Sheikh Mohammad. The memo used language which one would associate with a military exercise, stating that “the match is about to begin. Tomorrow is ‘zero hour’.” Cheney was outraged that the memo was leaked and ordered the FBI to investigate members of the Congressional committees. All information regarding Khalid Sheikh Mohammad remains classified.
The End of the American Empire
There has been a well-founded notion since America’s inception that the European Rothschild-led Illuminati bankers have sought to bring America to its knees, overturn the American Revolution and return it to the fold of the Crown of England- whose power is derived from oligarchical remnants of the Roman Empire
This medieval rollback could be easily accomplished through the mere withdrawal of Eight Families funding of America’s $14 trillion debt, which has mostly accrued owing to the US military’s role as mercenary praetorian guard of the Illuminati global empire. Coupled with a devastating US military defeat, America could be brought to its knees.
On August 15, 1871 Sovereign Grand Commander of the Ancient & Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry General Albert Pike wrote a letter to Italian P-1 33rd Degree Grand Commander and Mafia founder Guiseppe Mazzini. In the letter Pike talked of a Brotherhood plan for three World Wars. The first, he said, would destroy czarist Russia and create a Communist “bogeyman” which the bankers could employ to justify their foreign interventions around the world. The second, Pike said, would be used to create Israel, which would become a mercenary force for the international bankers, protecting oil interests for Rothschild and Rockefeller combines.
The Third World War, stated Pike’s letter, would pit Arabs against Zionists, and would culminate in a New World Order completely controlled by the international bankers and their secret societies. Pike described the events that would unfold as pretext for WWIII, “We must provoke a social cataclysm which in all its horror...everywhere, the citizens obliged to defend themselves against the world minority of revolutionaries...will receive the true light through...the pure doctrine of Lucifer, brought finally out into public view.”[12]
A group of commercial airline pilots, many of them Vietnam veterans, met in the aftermath of 911 to discuss the logistical aspects of the tragedy. They concluded overwhelmingly that the three Arabs who supposedly flew the jumbo jets into the WTC and the Pentagon could absolutely not have done so with the limited flight simulator experience they received at US flight schools. The group found it odd that the transponders on the planes had all been turned off, since this would serve no purpose if the Arabs were in control of the planes. The group came to believe that the planes’ flight paths were programmed by AWAC surveillance planes flying off the Atlantic coast.
This fly by wire technology has existed for decades and is employed on drone CIA Predator spy planes. During WWII the US used the technology to fly unmanned drones into Japanese tunnels in the Pacific to destroy arms caches. The openings of these tunnels were only 20-30 feet in diameter. Modern fly by wire systems such as Global Hawk, Home Run Tech and Black Star are much more advanced.
The commercial pilots said this accounts for the transponders being turned off, since this is necessary to hand over manual control of an aircraft to computerized AWACS, which then fly the plane by remote control. This would also account for the pinpoint accuracy of the attacks, which had to have been calibrated using engineering specifications to have brought down the WTC towers, in tandem with pre-set explosives attached to the elevator shafts.
In this scenario, long-time CIA Islamist Assassins were put up to hijacking the planes by their Mossad handlers for deniability and anti-Arab propaganda purposes. The hijackers would have known nothing of the plans to crash the planes into the Pentagon and Twin Towers. This was where the AWACS took control of the operation. To this day there has been no evidence presented that the Arabs were actually in the cockpits of those jets.
The only countries- other than the US- who possess this remote electronic capability are Israel, Russia, China and the UK. Did Israeli Mossad and British MI6 perpetrate 911 as part of an ongoing counter-revolutionary master plan to bring down the US? Did the orders come from Buckingham Palace?
Could a new global financial/military alliance- organized by the Eight Families- be emerging? Were Deutsche Bank and Standard Chartered paymasters for this alliance? Deutsche Bank founder Dr. Hermann Josef Abs was a leading banker to the Nazis and remained the bank’s Honorary Chairman until his 1994 death. [13] When Deutsche Bank bought Banker’s Trust ownership of the Four Horsemen shifted to the Bohn Warburg combine that financed Hitler. Deutsche Bank quickly became the world’s largest bank.
The launch of the euro a few months later represented a serious challenge to the US dollar as world reserve currency. In 2002 the dollar began to weaken dramatically. In August 2002 Russia and China conducted another round of joint military exercises, just as Bush was beating the drums of war over Iraq. France increasingly backed Russian and Chinese positions in the UN Security Council. As the US veered left and voted in President Barack Obama, a majority of European countries began voting in far-right presidents.
Did the Illuminati bankers bait the US into a Central Asian ring of fire surrounded by China, Russia and India- who recently formed the G-3 coalition as counterweight to US global hegemony”?
In June 2001 a female Russian doctor stated in a Pravda column that the US would be subject to a massive terrorist attack in late August 2001. She was then asked what she believed was coming next. She suggested selling dollars and buying Russian rubles, saying that the secret group behind 911 was the most powerful force in the world, worth over $300 trillion. She said this group would soon “strike America in the back” while it was down and that the next shoe to drop would be the decimation of the US economy, which she predicted would begin in 2002. [14] The NASDAQ crash, a plummeting dollar and a massive housing bust proved her right again. This “secret group” could only be the Illuminati Rothschild-led Eight Families.
Cecil Rhodes- the Rothschild protégé who laid the foundations for the creation of the Business Roundtable in the early 20th century- wrote his last will and testament in 1877. Rhodes’ will was implemented through the establishment of the Royal Institute for International Affairs in London. Its sister group in the US is the Council on Foreign Relations. Rhodes founded the Standard Chartered Bank, whose UAE Dubai branch allegedly supplied the 911 hijackers with the funds needed to carry out the attack.
Rhodes last will and testament aspired, “to establish a trust, to and for the establishment and promotion and development of a secret society, the true aim and object whereof shall be the extension of British rule throughout the world...and the ultimate recovery of the United States of America as an integral part of the British Empire.”[15]

Find Out What Your Customers Want and Expect...Before Your Competitors Do





p>by Patricia Fripp
Satisfy your customers... or someone else will. Your prospects and customers can give you important feedback, both directly and indirectly. After addressing a group of sales contest winners in Hawaii, I was on the shuttle bus headed for the airport. My usual custom is to ask questions, so I said to the driver, "I bet your passengers tell you what they really think about their stays at these fancy resorts because they know you don't work for any of them."
"Oh, yes," he replied. "In fact, once a month, the general manager of the hotel where you stayed comes to the depot with a big box of donuts and has coffee with the drivers. While we eat his donuts, we tell him everything we've overheard about his hotel -- and about his competitors' hotels." That is what I call Box-of-Donuts consulting. The hotel manager could have paid large fees to a research firm that would phone 1,000 guests and ask what they liked and didn't like. But that information couldn't possibly be as up-to-date or as honest as these drivers' feedback, nor would it give him valuable information about his competition.
Do you get, keep, and deserve your customers by finding out what they really want from you? The most frequently overlooked low- tech method is to talk to someone who talks to your customers and has no vested interest in their opinions. But this doesn't mean you don't also interview them formally.
The Ritz-Carlton Hotels, famous for customer service, do regular formal surveys with cards in the rooms and mailings. Someone asked their past president, Horst Schulze, "Why don't you offer a 'frequent guest' program?" (Such programs are a major investment of organizational time and philosophical strategy.) Schulze replied, "We don't because only two percent of our customers have asked for them. What our customers do want is to have a bowl of fresh fruit in the room when they check in." So that's what the Ritz- Carlton Hotels provide. When you know what people really want, it is rarely difficult or expensive to make them feel special. Schulze was doing exactly right.
My friend David Garfinkel, author of The Money-Making Copywriting Course, says there are five important answers you need to get from your customers, directly or indirectly:
1. What do you like about buying from us?
2. Why did you buy from us in the first place?
3. What problems did you have before you bought from us?
4. How did we help you solve those problems?
5. How are things better for you now?
"That last answer," says David, "is very important. It's what a positive result looks like to a real customer, and it's going to look the same to your other customers and prospects when you tell them about it."
Start some creative brainstorming. Consider who else might know what your customers are thinking. Is there some comfortable and ethical way you can talk with these people? One-on-one questioning? Maybe invite a group for a breakfast? Think about who in your business knows what your customers want. Is there a service that can provide you with an effective, economical market sample?
Finding out what your customers want may seem obvious, but too often it's overlooked. After my morning program for a Fortune 100 company, I found the attendees were spending the afternoon seated at round tables, brainstorming the topic, "How can we give our customers better service?" Very innocently, I asked my client, "Oh, and where are the customers you've invited to sit in with your salespeople?" There weren't any. (This was like doing a survey of what hospital patients want by asking the doctors.)
Research your competition so you know what they're offering, then research your prospects' wants and needs so you can do more for them as customers than your competition. For example, a Federal Express executive, Gurn Freeman, told me how, early in his career, he decided he wanted to go into the moving business. First, he opened the Yellow Pages and saw 128 movers listed. He phoned the first twenty-five and made an appointment for someone to come and talk to him, saying he was moving to Phoenix. At the end of every interview, he took notes on what they had done right, how they could have done better, and anything they did wrong. Next, he put together his own sales strategy.
Gurn quickly became a top mover's representative. "My secret was to do something none of those other reps had done for me. If I had an appointment with someone who was moving to Phoenix, I would call the Phoenix Chamber of Commerce and get all their free information and brochures for my prospective customer. I made it obvious that I had done my research before the sales appointment so I deserved their business. And I nearly always got it."
Of course, you will come up with great ideas for serving your customers, but there is nothing like asking them what they need, want, and appreciate. (The Ritz-Carlton Hotels changed the style of their room locks three times in eleven years to address the changing preferences and security concerns of their guests.) Asking shows your customers how important they are to you. It's how you satisfy them and keep them from going elsewhere.
Why should you try so hard to find out what your customers really want? Because your best customers are also the hottest prospects for your competitors. Satisfy them before someone else does! If other salespeople win over one of your loyal customers by offering more ideas and more service, maybe they have more right to the business than you do.
When you lose a customer, you lose two ways:
1. You don't get their money.
2. Your competitors do.
If you're not quite sure, isn't it a good idea to go to your customers and say, "Tell me in your own words what I have done for you?"

How to Develop a 4P Marketing Strategy - Who Will Your Customers Be?



Article Source: http://EzineArticles.com/6026441

The 4P Marketing Strategy
If you've developed a new product or you've come across an exciting new product that you think you could sell successfully don't rush into things before you've decided who your customers will be. Use the 4P Marketing Strategy to help develop a comprehensive product launch plan, an important part of which will be identifying your best target customers.
This 4p Marketing Strategy tells us that before we start marketing and selling our products we must have investigated four areas:
1. Product, so that we know what product we are going to sell
2. Place, so that we know where we are going to find our customers
3. Promotion, so that we know what our market offering will be
4. Price, so that we sell at a price which is acceptable to our customers and profitable
The answers to these questions are not always as obvious as one would think which is why I decided to write a series of articles to help B2B companies use the 4P Marketing Strategy properly. I have used it to help me launch new products for many years now. It's simple to understand and use and works very well in practice.
In this article I intend to focus on the second "P" - "Where are you going to find your customers?", but we need to expand the scope of this question a little bit to put some more flesh on the bones of our strategy.
To do this I intend to cover:
- Where will you find your customers?
- Why will they want to buy your product?
- Who's going to sell your product?
Where Will You Find Your Customers?
Once you have decided on your product you must have a clear idea about who your customers are going to be. They might not be in the same group of people as your existing customers.
You need to carry out some basic research to answer this question, so take off your "sales hat" and put on your "consultant's hat". Start your research by drawing up a list of your most profitable current customers. Phone them up and tell them about the product you're thinking of selling, also tell them why you think they might want to consider buying it. You'll need to be a bit presumptive and direct here because you're not intending to sell your product at this stage (i.e. don't bombard them with lots of sales questions).
If you get positive responses to your questions and people start to ask about the price this is a good sign that you might be able to sell your new product to existing customers.
On the other hand you might be told "We don't have a need for products like that" or "We already buy products like that from someone else" or "We might be interested in the product but it's not my area of responsibility".
If you get a lot of answers like the first one it indicates that you will probably need to look for a new market sector in which to sell your product. The consequence of this is that the cost of taking the product to market will be higher. You'll need to take this into account when calculating likely product profitability.
Answers like the second one are not necessarily bad news. Get as much information as you can about who they are currently buying from. If it's a direct competitor of yours evaluate the products he/she is selling by doing a little more research. If your product is much better than the one your customers are currently buying this is good news, although you'll have to become adept at explaining why your product is better.
If you are told that you 'll have to talk to someone else in another area about your product ask for an introduction. Call the new contact on the 'phone and go through the same questions again. If you get positive answers this is good news, and you can start building your list of sales prospects. However, there are going to be some additional costs involved building up relationships with new buyers. These costs need to be taken into account.
Why Will They Want to Buy Your Product?
When you are carrying out your research to find out who might buy your product make sure you ask potential customers how they think your product might help their company.
You will probably already have ideas of your own about this, but the research work you carry out will provide you with much better information that you can use when you set about listing the features and benefits that will enable you to sell your product successfully.
Who's Going to Sell Your Product?
This may sound like an obvious question, especially if you have always sold your own products direct to customers before. But now could be a good time to consider the alternatives to direct selling.
These could be:
- Selling on-line
- Telephone Selling
- Partner sales
Selling On-line
Depending upon the type of product you're thinking of taking on, ask yourself whether it provides you with an opportunity to sell on-line through the internet rather than face to face.
You will need to assess a number of factors when you do this, and I can't cover all of them in this article. However, I do want to make one important observation. If you're going to launch a new product and you don't currently do much business on-line this could be an excellent opportunity to try out an on-line strategy. Selling on-line will enable you to communicate directly and immediately with more customers at a lower cost than is possible with direct selling. If this approach works well with your new product you could consider selling some or all of your other products on line as well.
Telephone Selling
If your research has shown that your new product will sell well to your existing customers why not try selling it using a dedicated in-house telesales person. This might not work for some products and for your bigger customers, but it's a good strategy to consider for your smaller and less profitable customers. It will enable your direct sales team to spend more time selling to your bigger customers.
Partner Sales
If your research indicates that your product is more likely to sell well in market sectors that you're not familiar with, it could make sense to find a business partner that knows these sectors (and perhaps has the right contacts) rather than taking on all the costs that will be incurred if you decide to market and sell in these sectors yourself.
Sadly, there are lots of tragic marketing stories about companies that have decided to take on new products and new market sectors at the same time. You don't want to become one of the casualties!
You Now Have Half a Strategy!
If you have now gone through all the information I have provided in my last two articles you should be able to complete half of your 4P Marketing Strategy. But don't rush ahead too quickly.
There are still some important questions you need to ask yourself about the last two P's - Promotion and Price. There are also probably some simple spreadsheets you need to build to support your strategy.
Please keep a look-out for my next article so that you can build a comprehensive and well-thought-out 4P Strategy that ensures you take your products to market successfully and profitably.
