"The Recalibration of Awareness – Apr 20/21, 2012 (Kryon channeled by Lee Carroll) (Subjects: Old Energy, Recalibration Lectures, God / Creator, Religions/Spiritual systems (Catholic Church, Priests/Nun’s, Worship, John Paul Pope, Women in the Church otherwise church will go, Current Pope won’t do it), Middle East, Jews, Governments will change (Internet, Media, Democracies, Dictators, North Korea, Nations voted at once), Integrity (Businesses, Tobacco Companies, Bankers/ Financial Institutes, Pharmaceutical company to collapse), Illuminati (Started in Greece, with Shipping, Financial markets, Stock markets, Pharmaceutical money (fund to build Africa, to develop)), Shift of Human Consciousness, (Old) Souls, Women, Masters to/already come back, Global Unity.... etc.) - (Text version)

“… The Shift in Human Nature

You're starting to see integrity change. Awareness recalibrates integrity, and the Human Being who would sit there and take advantage of another Human Being in an old energy would never do it in a new energy. The reason? It will become intuitive, so this is a shift in Human Nature as well, for in the past you have assumed that people take advantage of people first and integrity comes later. That's just ordinary Human nature.

In the past, Human nature expressed within governments worked like this: If you were stronger than the other one, you simply conquered them. If you were strong, it was an invitation to conquer. If you were weak, it was an invitation to be conquered. No one even thought about it. It was the way of things. The bigger you could have your armies, the better they would do when you sent them out to conquer. That's not how you think today. Did you notice?

Any country that thinks this way today will not survive, for humanity has discovered that the world goes far better by putting things together instead of tearing them apart. The new energy puts the weak and strong together in ways that make sense and that have integrity. Take a look at what happened to some of the businesses in this great land (USA). Up to 30 years ago, when you started realizing some of them didn't have integrity, you eliminated them. What happened to the tobacco companies when you realized they were knowingly addicting your children? Today, they still sell their products to less-aware countries, but that will also change.

What did you do a few years ago when you realized that your bankers were actually selling you homes that they knew you couldn't pay for later? They were walking away, smiling greedily, not thinking about the heartbreak that was to follow when a life's dream would be lost. Dear American, you are in a recession. However, this is like when you prune a tree and cut back the branches. When the tree grows back, you've got control and the branches will grow bigger and stronger than they were before, without the greed factor. Then, if you don't like the way it grows back, you'll prune it again! I tell you this because awareness is now in control of big money. It's right before your eyes, what you're doing. But fear often rules. …”

VP hails role of RI firms in Makassar airport project

Ridwan Max Sijabat, The Jakarta Post, Jakarta

Vice President Jusuf Kalla hailed the role national firms played in the ongoing construction of a new airport in Makassar, South Sulawesi, saying it was time to empower Indonesians to be able to carry out such development projects in other sectors and provinces.

"The government has its own interests in completing the project as soon as possible to serve the increasing amount of flights to the country's easternmost region.

"But we have to applaud national companies too, which have absorbed huge costs from the state budget and the province's budget," he said over the weekend.

Kalla, who paid a visit to the project two weeks ago, said the airport construction was a pilot project carried out all by Indonesian companies, experts and workers.

"I think it's time to empower national companies to handle all the work in development projects financed by the state, in efforts to express our independence and to create jobs for our people."

Separately, Lukman Laisa, chairman of a working unit of the Directorate of Air Transportation at the Transportation Ministry, said the government has entrusted construction company PT Duta Graha Indah to construct a 1.8-km stretch of the 3.1-km runway, following its success in building a taxiway and parking lot at the new airport.

"The first phase of the runway construction project is nearing completion and we are now open for registration of domestic companies interested in the project's second phase," he said.

President of state-owned airport operator PT Angkasa Pura I, M. Yusuf, said he was proud of Duta Graha and the other 17 domestic companies taking part in the project, which has absorbed Rp 570 billion from the state and province budgets.

Duta Graha human resources director Sutiono Teguh said the company, which is scheduled to offer its shares to the public in an IPO later this month, has joined in the government's bidding process for the development of a new airport in Medan, North Sumatra.

"On the basis of our experience in Makassar, the government may give us the opportunity to take part in the new projects."
