Madoff Victim Lawrence Velvel
Dean Mass. School of Law at Andover

A Massachusetts law school dean that lost money invested with swindler Bernard Madoff said that the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) was “willfully, horribly negligent” in failing to monitor his operation.

Lawrence Velvel, dean of the Massachusetts School of Law at Andover, said, “The SEC’s incredible willful negligence” to not seriously investigate Madoff’s operations despite repeated red flags and written warnings of his criminality probably makes the agency liable to legal action by aggrieved investors. The SEC, he said, “has no discretion—none—to fail to follow up, with serious investigations, when presented with knowledgeable, detailed, obviously highly competent, and in many respects easily ‘checkable’ allegations of...a huge fraud that is fooling thousands of people, stealing billions of dollars, and causing horrible injustice.”

Equally bad, says Velvel, the SEC was responsible for a lot of people being sucked into Madoff in the first place, because in 1992 it publicly announced that there was no fraud.

Referring to the preponderant majority of Madoff’s victims, Velvel said, “These are not the billionaires, or the huge institutions, that could hire expensive experts in due diligence…These are the plain people who worked hard and saved all their lives, as capitalism says they should, and who…depended on their government to protect them…but were failed by it because of one of the most willfully negligent, incompetent, and perhaps even complicitous courses of action any agency has ever engaged in.”

Singer - Singing Sensation - Susan Boyle - Britain's Got Talent Singer Susan Boyle - Britain's Got Talent singing sensation contestant.

Susan Magdalane Boyle born 1 April 1961 is a Scottish singer who came to international public attention when she appeared as a contestant on the TV programme Britain's Got Talent on 11 April 2009, singing "I Dreamed a Dream" from Les Misérables. Her first album was released in November 2009 and debuted as the number one best-selling album on charts around the globe.

Global interest in Boyle was triggered by the contrast between her powerful mezzo-soprano voice and her plain appearance on stage. The juxtaposition of the audience's first impression of her, with the standing ovation she received during and after her performance, led to an international media and Internet response. Within nine days of the audition, videos of Boyle—from the show, various interviews and her 1999 rendition of "Cry Me a River"—had been watched over 100 million times. Her audition video has been viewed on the internet several hundred million times. Despite the sustained media interest she later finished in second place in the final of the show behind dance troupe Diversity.

Stephan A. Schwartz is the Senior Samueli Fellow for Brain, Mind and Healing of the Samueli Institute, and a Research Associate of the Cognitive Sciences Laboratory of the Laboratories for Fundamental Research. He is the columnist for the journal Explore, and editor of the daily web publication Schwartzreport.net in both of  which covers trends that are affecting the future. He also writes regularly for The Huffington Post. Previously he was the founder and Research Director of the Mobius laboratory, and Director of Research of the Rhine Research Center, Senior Fellow of The Philosophical Research Society, Special Assistant for Research and Analaysis to the Chief of Naval Operations, and an editorial staff member of National Geographic. For 40 years he has been studying the nature of consciousness, particularly that aspect independent of space and time. Schwartz is part of the small group that founded modern Remote Viewing research, and is the principal researcher studying the use of Remote Viewing in archaeology. Using Remote Viewing he discovered Cleopatra’s Palace, Marc Antony’s Timonium, ruins of the Lighthouse of Pharos, and sunken ships along the California coast, and in the Bahamas. He also uses remote viewing to examine the future. Since 1978, he has been getting people to remote view the year 2050, and out of that has come a complex trend analysis. His submarine experiment, Deep Quest, using Remote Viewing helped determine that nonlocal perception is not an electromagnetic phenomenon. Other areas of experimental study include research into creativity, meditation, and Therapeutic Intent/Healing. He is the author of 50 technical papers and reports. In addition to his experimental studies he has written numerous magazine articles for Smithsonian, OMNI, American History, American Heritage, The Washington Post, The New York Times, as well as other magazines and newspapers. He has produced and written a number of television documentaries, and has written four books: The Secret Vaults of Time, The Alexandria Project, Mind Rover  and his latest, Opening to the Infinite.

Maggid ben Yoseif  is a retired career daily newspaper editor turned theologian, spiritual seeker and Torah teacher.  He is an independent and self-supported Native American minister and intertribal elder associated with the Sundance warriors of the Membreno Apache and is past-Ambassador-at-large for the Central Band of the Cherokee (2010-2011).

He began his career as a sportswriter at the Houma Daily Courier (Houma, La.) and while completing journalism school at Louisiana State, for the Baton Rouge Morning Advocate. He moved on to covering urban affairs for the Vicksburg Evening Post (Vicksburg, Ms.), ran the state desk and assisted the city desk at the Monroe News-Star World (Monroe, La.), and became managing editor and executive editor of the Daily Iberian (New Iberia, La.). For editions published during his tenure as executive editor at the Iberian, the 15,000 circulation daily was brought from obscurity and named the best small daily under 40,000 circulation in the State of Louisiana by the Louisiana Press Association. This was in head-to-head competition with larger dailies with more resources owned by the New York Times and Gannett.

In 1982, while editor at the Iberian he had an experience with the Light of God that he said, "scared the bee-Jeezuz out of me and about nine reporters and section editors who witnessed it," and led to his attending seminary.

He completed all but the required systematic theology courses at the ORU Graduate School of Theology in Tulsa, OK., -- forbidden by the same Light to take those courses -- and then moved to the Middle East in 1987.

Israeli news media

Over a 14-year period, he worked six years full-time in the Israeli news media in Jerusalem and the then-Israeli-administered West Bank of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan (biblically Judea-Samaria). He was the chief news writer and features producer for Middle East Television, headquartered in Marjahoun, S. Lebanon, covering Iraqi President Saddam Hussein's efforts to rebuild ancient Babylon, the last year of the Iraq-Iran Persian Gulf War,  the cease fire that united Shi'a and Sunni against America and the Israeli-Lebanon conflict. When METV's English news, which had been named the most comprehensive and unbiased media outlet in the entire Middle East, was suddenly discontinued by owner Pat Robertson and the staff fired, he was hired the same day his job ended by The Jerusalem Post.

At the Post, he was a pagination design editor, assistant special sections editor, relief religion writer and columnist.  A column he published in the Post entitled, "The Speech Nobody Heard in Madrid," attracted him to the attention of several Jerusalem rabbis who allowed him to study Torah and Halachah as a non-Jew in their houses of study. Earlier, while at METV, he had studied Koran with a Moslem imam in Beit Phage as a condition of living in the all-Moslem East Jerusalem village.  His ministry there was to simply tell the Palestinian population that God was "bringing home the children of Israel to reunite with the children of Judah."

Return of the House of Joseph

His training in Hebrew and Aramaic Biblical exegesis, Talmud and Koran has led to several innovative proposals attempting to reconcile and dovetail the theologies of all three faiths. He also has promoted the Zechariah Plan, (the biblical state for the Palestinian people in the Gaza and regions contiguous including parts of the fertile Sh'felah valley) and the Return of the House of Joseph.

In 2001, he was exiled from Israel after three political arrests and imprisonment in which he was never charged with a crime and not allowed contact with the U.S. Consul for the first week of his incarceration in violation of the treaty between Israel and the United States and his rights as an American citizen.  Rather than comply with orders for his release from the highest level of the Sharon government's cabinet, the Israeli Secret Police instead transferred him to Ma'asiyahu, Israel's highest security prison, where he was incarcerated with Islamic fundamentalists who had "overstayed their visas."

In an unprecedented move with the support of Israeli Interior minister Eli Yishai, and then Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, he won his release upon the condition that he would leave Israel voluntarily and not return until the message of the Return of the House of Joseph and the biblical Palestinian state he proposes, "were no longer considered a threat to Israeli national security."

After his release from Ma'asiyahu, he was given smichah (akin to ordination) as a "maggid," by his mentor and friend of 14 years, the Rebbe Shani Dor, who is a member of the Revived Jerusalem Sanhedrin Court.  He was charged with the duties of a mokhiah (someone who resolves doctrinal disputes with historical grammatical exegesis).

Native American credentials

Today, Maggid ben Yoseif, mixed Cherokee and a great-great-great grandson of William Griffin, a member of the Cherokee National Council at Red Clay, TN., before the 1830s Removal, lives among the Membreno Apache in the southwestern Colorado Rockies where he is considered a spiritual elder and "gatekeeper." He is a Torah teacher assisting the Membreno with their vision of uniting Native tribes and restoring Native ceremonies.

In the fall of 2009, Chief Joe Sittingowl White, principal chief of the Central Band Cherokee, invited ben Yoseif to serve his Tsa-la-gi (Cherokee) people as one of the 13 Equahiyi-Wasi (EH-KWAH-HE-YEE WAH-SEE). With the help of Creator, this Abraham-Moses society is researching Native American origins, prophecy and spirituality and specifically their Hebrew ties. After presenting Apache demands to the George W. Bush White House that the skulls of Geronimo and other Apache be returned in a sacred manner "before the curse grows much worse", he was adopted as an elder by the Sundance warrior lodge of the Membreno Apache.  He is "keeper of the gate" at Eldersgate, American Indian Council., in SW Colorado at the eastern extremity of the Four Corners region anciently known as "Aztlan."  During an exchange of gifts at his first meeting with Membreno spiritual leader Jimmy Tenrivers Atencio, he was gifted with his medicine from the land of the Aztecs.  In 2004, he was asked by the Bear Clan elder Abe Walkingbear Sanchez, of the Zuni nation, who along with Tenrivers helped ben Yoseif envision Eldersgate, to serve on the board of directors of Turtletribe and begin a working version of the turtletribe.org website.  He has also served as an ex-officio board member of Iglesia de Aztlan.  His long-standing interest in Native American affairs stems from moderating a debate between representatives of the American Indian Movement and the Bureau of Indian Affairs as a news editor on the campus daily at Louisiana State University in 1973.

Born into a well-known Australian show business family, Helen Reddy has had a life and a career richer and more varied than anything she could ever have imagined as a girl in Melbourne. She has dined on her birthday with the Prince of Wales, danced in the White House with the President of the United States, and had a tulip named after her in Holland.

Best known as a recording artist, Helen Reddy had more than a dozen Top 40 hits in the United States. She was the first Australian to win a Grammy Award and to have three #1 hits in the same year. In television, Helen was the first Australian to host her own one-hour weekly primetime variety show on an American network, along with several specials that were seen in over forty countries.

In theater, Helen has starred in London’s West End and on Broadway in New York. As a solo concert artist, she has played at Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center in New York, as well as the Royal Albert Hall and the Palladium in London. Helen was also the first western female performer invited to sing in the People’s Republic of China. In film, her starring role in Disney’s Pete’s Dragon continues to delight the younger generation, while the lyrics she penned for her feminist anthem “I Am Woman” are now included in Modern American History high school textbooks. Besides the compilation, The Woman I Am: The Definitive Collection, all 12 of Helen’s original studio albums for Capitol are now available for digital download worldwide.

Her best-selling memoir The Woman I Am (Tarcher/Penguin), reveals that at the height of her career, Helen’s world was shattered by the death of both her parents and, simultaneously, the news that she had a rare and incurable disease, A riveting, frank and ultimately brave memoir, she recounts the emotional highs and lows that have shaped her life as an artist and as a complex woman, with a rich inner life sustained by a strong spiritual faith.

Helen retired from live performance in 2002 and practiced as a clinical hypnotherapist and motivational speaker in her native Australia for ten years. But after singing a duet with her sister at her sister’s 80th birthday party, Helen decided to come out of retirement in July, 2012 and return to the stage where, in addition to a selection of her hits, she now treats audiences to songs from her vast catalog she had never before performed live.

Jeff Baker is a Conduit and an Empathic Healer. He is often referred to as a psychic or medium or medical intuitive. These are all just terms that characterize a giftedness that people find hard to describe.  He prefers to just to be known as a person who is a conduit for healing in all the services that he offers.   Although his gifts lay in almost all of these “esoteric” areas, Jeff feels that the work he does is grounded in Spirituality and is therefore practically applicable on a real and reasoned human level.  And as a conduit, he prefers to not take credit for the work he does but he will say, “I am part of it for sure, but it is innate faith in yourself and what I do that makes the marriage work”.  For that reason Jeff does not take on every case that is submitted and prefers to help those that he can’t by training them to be their own healers!

He believes that vulnerability in life is empowerment and not a weakness and that everyone is ultimately their own healer. Jeff uses his gifts- and shares them -through holding satsangs (see services page), and personal development seminars, whether addressing dis-ease or spirituality or addiction or any topic where his guidance is needed.

As an Empath, Jeff feels what his clients are going through. He has worked with many different diseases.  He has worked with many types of Cancer, Diabetes 1 and 2, HIV and AIDS, COPD, ALS, deformities, Adrenal Burnout and Kidney Failure, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Herpes, many varieties of brain disorders and diseases, Crohn's Disease, Lyme, Food Allergies, Depression, Anxiety, Thyroid and Endocrine issues, Hormonal issues, Glandular disorders, Vascular Dementia, Astigmatism and other eye and sight issues, Hearing Loss, Nerve Damage, Parkinson’s Disease, Mental Health Issues and many more.

Dedicating more than 90,000 hours over a span of 15 years, Debra and Dru are pleased to unveil their serial publication titled: Phase Transition... The Philadelphia Experiment.

Investigating the circumstances surrounding the allegations of an experiment in invisibility and teleportation, both are committed to resolve this decades old mystery once and for all.  Disappointed with prior reporting and attempts to settle this case, including the course in which this debate has gone, Dru and Debra are bent on changing both its scope and tone.  Utilizing critical thinking skills supported by credible documentation—since released by the United States military—you'll be launched onto a fast track of an engaging narrative grounded in impeccable research.  To that end, their evidence will prove, beyond all doubt that, the alleged naval experiment in invisibility and teleportation involving the USS Eldridge did actually take place.

Dru retired from the United States Marine Corps after 30 years of honorable service to his much-loved Country.  He held senior enlisted career positions in material management, inventory control, and financial accounting.  For over half of his military career, Dru had been hand selected for special duty as a military systems analyst tasked with evaluating and reporting on the efficiency and combat readiness of Marine Corps units worldwide.  Since his retirement, Dru had applied his exceptional skills as a military analyst towards the study of World War II Naval history and the rumors surrounding this amazing secret account.  As a student of naval history, Dru's military experience and ability to process large amounts of specialized information has been an advantage in tapping into a gateway of new knowledge.

The writing of Blue Star began after an abduction experience in 1988. I was asked to write a book for the beings I had encountered explaining who they were at their request. The idea and acceptance of this task was not easy. Fifteen years after they initially requested this of me, I began writing. Not only did complete acceptance take place, but the TIME was right as well.

Although I have no formal education or degrees, my intelligence and intellect imply otherwise. Contact began with me at birth and is ongoing. I feel I have been groomed for my role in this cosmic event as a messenger for the beings from afar. They have provided me with education, they have become my teachers in this life, and more. I feel that everyday of life on this planet is a great gift to be cherished, honored and respected.

Since 1988 I intermittently watched the UFO community develop in knowledge as well as acceptance and comprehension. A great deal of information initially given to me is now being accepted as truth by the UFO community, as well as by mass public.

Those who have worked for years informing the masses of the existence of Extra Terrestials have worked tirelessly never allowing the skeptics to stop them from their work. It is only because of their hard work I feel I am able to share my story with the world. Without the messages from each and every one of us the whole truth would not be possible. I know that everyone who works towards education of Alien existence has a specific role to play. We are in a community that can unite and have more effect on the world than any government, group or organization in the history of mankind.

With gratitude and love,
Miriam
