“… 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. …”

Nevada chosen for high-tech Tesla car battery factory

BBC News, 5 September 2014
Tesla says the move will cut battery manufacturing costs

Global Car Industry

The governor of the US state of Nevada has said that the Tesla electric car maker has chosen his state ahead of rivals for a $5bn battery factory.

Brian Sandoval said the California-based company will use the plant to make cheaper and more efficient batteries for future cars.

Correspondents say the factory will be a key part of Tesla's ambitions of taking on major automobile companies.

The "gigafactory" is predicted to bring nearly $100bn into Nevada's economy.

Mr Sandoval said that he hoped that target could be reached within the next 20 years, simultaneously reducing Tesla's battery costs by 30%.

$5bn factory will be built

Tesla Chief Executive Officer and co-founder Elon Musk said that Nevada
was chosen because of its "can-do" attitude

Tesla will prepare, provide and manage the land and buildings, while Panasonic will make and supply the lithium-ion battery cells.

The plant is to be located in an industrial park in Story County, about 25km (15 miles) east of Reno, an area that currently has a population of around 4,000.

Nevada fended off competition from Arizona, Texas, New Mexico and California as the site for the factory, which is expected to create 6,500 jobs with another 16,000 more indirectly.

Mr Sandoval said that the plant will become the "world's largest and most advanced battery factory".

He described the the selection of Nevada was as a "historic day" for the state.

Tesla Chief Executive Officer and co-founder Elon Musk said that while Nevada's offer to his company "was not the biggest incentive package", the state had proved it "can do things quickly" and "get things done".

Yoshihiko Yamada of Panasonic said in July that the factory would help the electric vehicle market grow.

Sales of zero-emission electric vehicles currently make up less than 1% of the world's car market.
