"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. …”

Sea transit bill awaits new safety information

Alvin Darlanika Soedarjo, The Jakarta Post, Jakarta

The Transportation Ministry has said that the draft of the sea transportation bill is almost complete and is only waiting on safety information.

"We are gathering a list of crucial problems before we can formulate any amendments to the sea transportation bill draft," Transportation Minister Jusman Syafii Djamal told reporters on Wednesday.

"The draft is about 60 to 70 percent complete."

Jusman added that the sea transportation bill could not be deliberated simultaneously with the aviation bill at the House.

"They should be deliberated in a series. Judging from their content and entry, the sea transportation bill has the priority."

Transportation Ministry spokesman Bambang Ervan said that once the draft was submitted there would be no retraction of the bill.

"There will be only progress instead of retreat," he said.

The Indonesian Transport Community had earlier said that many sea accidents occurred because of the incompetence of the crew, particularly captains. Many ships were also too old to be running, it said.

A legislator from House's Commission V overseeing transportation affairs, Abdullah Aswar Anas, told The Jakarta Post that the House would discuss the aviation bill first because the sea transportation bill was not yet ready.

"We are ready to deliberate the sea transportation bill. However, we will wait until the new minister understands the content of the sea transportation draft," said Aswar, who represents the National Awakening Party.

Jusman said that in order to increase aviation security and safety, airport operators should create a detailed road map according to international safety standards.

"Dangerous goods should be segregated to increase security. In safety, motorcycles should be banned from entering specific areas of the airport," he said.

"Local airports also have to be classified by the international industry as safe."

As for new commercial airlines, such as Lorena Air, which is due to begin operation soon, Jusman said that airlines should compete with each other in a good way.

"Don't just drop the ticket prices and disregard safety issues," he said.
