Nexus|December 2018 - January 2019

China will continue to hold high the banner of peace, development, cooperation, and mutual benefit and uphold its fundamental foreign policy goal of preserving world peace and promoting common development. China remains firm in its commitment to strengthening friendship and cooperation with other countries on the basis of the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence, and to forging a new form of international relations featuring mutual respect, fairness, justice, and win-win cooperation.

– Xi Jinping address to the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China

Mackinder's Geopolitics Vs Xi Jinping's New Silk Road: Reality Is Not A Closed System

In his recently translated address to the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, Xi Jinping laid out a grand design and philosophy for the short, medium and long-term strategy for both his country and the world.1 President Xi not only directly challenged the underlying morality of post-modernism and neoliberalism which has rendered the western population incapable of planning the future or even maintaining the institutions handed down to us from past generations, but most importantly threw down the gauntlet challenging the western powers to release themselves from the ideological crutch of "geopolitics" and work with China under a new paradigm of "win-win cooperation".

Xi Jinping's "Belt and Road" Initiative and its global manifestations across Africa, Europe and the Americas have been complemented on January 25, 2018 by an extension into the Arctic, dubbed the Polar Silk Road. This Arctic extension gave new life to a project—which Russian President Vladimir Putin endorsed as early as April 2007—known as the Bering Strait Rail Tunnel, connecting the Americas with Eurasia.2

Up until recently, western geopoliticians have attempted to dismiss such initiatives as "fringe concepts", promoted by Lyndon LaRouche and Helga Zepp-LaRouche of the Schiller Institute, but today a very different picture has come to light which reveals that this battle between two opposing paradigms goes much further back in history than most people realise and as such, a need to revisit some forgotten history is in order. It is, after all, due to this potent conception of history as a struggle between two opposing paradigms that the LaRouches and their allies have been able to advance such policies as mentioned above for over four decades.

Your body is crying out for...dirt

The idea of eating dirt isn't new. It's been around a long time, dating back more than 2,500 years. Hunters and gatherers couldn't avoid it, and regardless of culture, there's evidence people have included traces of dirt in their diets throughout the ages.

Biological Transmutations

Over the past two centuries a large number of experiments with animals, seeds and bacteria have demonstrated that biology is not only a chemical process, but also a nuclear one. It has been demonstrated that some minerals transmute into other minerals. With the development of lowenergy nuclear reactions (cold fusion), this topic is back in the scientific agenda. Very few scientists work in this field, but its importance is such that its further development is crucial.
