1. A Review of the 'Sirius C Theory'
The reader who has previously read 'Level I' knows that we spent a lot of time talking about the Sirian Overlords in those papers, or the Ša.AM.i, as they call themselves. We also discussed how their planet, which they call Ša.AM.e, was thrown out of its orbit around Sirius C when the star was in the process of turning into a nova about 1 billion years ago (and later shrunk to become a white dwarf star; a state it remains in today). I learned this from Dr. A.R. Bordon of Life Physics Group California (LPG-C), but similar information can be found from other sources as well, one being some channeled material from the Sirians themselves, a faction which allegedly evolved into higher consciousness and eventually became The Sirian High Council. A website containing their channeled information can be viewed here: http://www.bibliotecapleyades.net/ciencia/ciencia_channelers16.htm. We have reasons to return to this group of non-physicals in a later paper.
Just as a quick review: the story goes that the planet Ša.AM.e catapulted into deep space in an accelerating speed shortly before the destruction of its home system, heading towards our own solar system. The inhabitants had to move underground in order to survive. Sirius C is located 8.7 light-years from Earth, so it took a while for the planet to reach the outer realms of our solar system. This huge planet, supposedly around six times bigger than Earth, having eleven satellites/moons (there may have been 12 moons at that time, or more, however) was then pulled in by the gravity from Neptune and changed direction, now moving towards the inner parts of our solar system. This put Ša.AM.e on collision course with a planet which was then positioned between Mars and Jupiter and was called Maldek among many other names. However, Ša.AM.e missed Maldek with a close call, but one of its moons hit Marduk and took a chunk of the planet with it. After have made the damage, Ša.AM.e once again disappeared out in deep space and catapulted out of our solar system, now with course back towards Sirius and later turned around and back to us. Since then, Ša.AM.e has allegedly been on a 3,600 years orbit around our Sun, as an extra, hidden planet of our solar system.
Figure 2-1. Zecharia Sitchin
According to Sitchin, LPG-C, and the Ša.AM.i people themselves, the next time the alien planet came back for a new visit, Maldek was hit once again and was now split in half. One half became the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, and the other half was thrown out of its orbit and placed itself between Mars and Venus and became Earth. Some say that our Moon is actually one of the Ša.AM.e satellites, which was pulled in by Earth's gravity. Scientists have now discovered that the Moon is actually older than the solar system itself, according to former CIA remote viewer Ingo Swann in his book, Penetration: The Question of Extraterrestrial and Human Telepathy[1]. So if the story about the Ša.AM.e satellite is correct, it would explain the age of our Moon (a whole paper about Mars and our own Moon will be included in the 'Level II' series, by the way).
One problem with the Sitchin theory about 'Nibiru' hitting Maldek is that he never even once mentioned that there was life on Maldek once upon a time. In his book it sounds like Maldek was a dead planet and when Earth was created from the splitting of Maldek, it was not much more than a dead rock. This contradicts all the material out there, both channeled and other, that there was life on Maldek before the planet was destroyed. We are going to discuss this subject in the future, as well.
LPG-C claims that Ša.AM.e and Sitchin's Nibiru, The 12th Planet, are one and the same and that it's the home planet of the Ša.AM.istar race. I don't know where Sitchin got the name Nibiru from in regards to being the home of the Sirian star race, as it is not mentioned in any of the Sumerian tablets as being the home planet of the 'Anunnaki', (and I am bringing this up to be scrutinized some more at the end of this paper), but whether we want to name it Nibiru or Ša.AM.e, I think there is truth to this theory, although it's been twisted so that we won't find out the whole story. For now, let's leave it with that.
When I asked Dr. Bordon (whom I most of the time will call 'A.R.' from hereon, because that is what he goes by) who it was that created the Ša.AM.i and if he could tell me what is known about their early history, he told me that very little is known about it, and the Ša.AM.i apparently haven't really told LPG-C either, like it was something they prefer not to discuss. A.R. told me, however, that their Founders could have been the so-called Tall Whites, who have an area in Nevada designated to them by our own government as part of an exchange program, or Technology Transfer Program (TTP), meaning that we allegedly get technology from them in exchange for that they get this location outside Nellis Air Force Base to use at their convenience. This is all detailed in 'Level I'. A.R. further hinted at that the Ša.AM.i started a war with their own Creator Gods; a war they eventually won. He couldn't say for sure whether these Founders were the 'Tall Whites' or not.
The early history of the Sirian Overlords, however, is told very convincingly by Robert Morning Sky; both in his Terra Papers and other papers that preceded them. I find it very interesting that neither the Ša.AM.i, Sitchin, nor LPG-C have ever mentioned Orion or the Mother Goddess in any of their material, and coherent research such as that of Morning Sky is not mentioned either. I am using Morning Sky as a reference to some extent here in my first papers for a reason. Although I far from agree with everything he has written or said, he is one of the few who has been able to find information that has been hidden from us; stuff other researcher have not been able to find, or have missed. Therefore, I am referring to the parts he wrote which corresponds closely to my own research and leave out the rest. The way Robert tells the story of the Sirians also corresponds pretty well with other reliable sources, such as the Pleiadians. Now, when I have looked at all this different material and compared them, I must say it's stunning to see how Sitchin must deliberately have left out very crucial information and added as he saw fit, like if he took notes from someone in the room, or as if he knew the real story already so that he knew exactly what to leave out and change in order to present a neuter, or perhaps even masculine Universe where the Divine Feminine is totally absent and not even mentioned as a 'by the way'. The Hopi legends and the story of the Star Elder, however, fortunately let us add quite a lot to the puzzle if we know where and how to look.
So let's see if we can figure out how the Sirian race came about and how they evolved.
2. The Early History of the Sirian People
Just like A.R., I have no idea who seeded the planet, or planets, in the Sirius system, and I don't know who the Founders were. I just know that normally, although there may be a certain group of Founders who instigate the seeding process, many other Founder groups usually (but not always) help out in the process. For the sake of our story, the answer to this question does not necessarily need to be answered, unless it would directly have to do with the Founders' involvement in the history of Planet Earth. I have not found any such important connection.
What we do know, especially from Robert Morning Sky; both from his 'Terra Papers' and the earlier, 'Eden, Atlantis, and the UFO Myth', is that the Sirians were seeded, and evolved much later than the Aryans. It's a significantly younger star race, but much older than mankind. In their basic biokind, they are apparently a wolf/reptilian species, but also with cat-like features.[2] Both females and males have golden brown, dark, or red manes, something we touched upon in passing in previous papers. Their ancestors, from whom this star race was genetically engineered, were wolf-cat like creatures, which seem to have been a blend between a dog (wolf), a cat, and a reptile. This is where we get the name 'Dog Star' for Sirius from (the word 'dog' stemming from the Aryan word DAKH [pronounced similar to the German word doch], according to Morning Sky's research) ; our ancestors were well aware of the origins of these star visitors and where they came from.
This is how Robert Morning Sky describes them in details, based on the information he received from the Star Elder, but supposedly also from much older Hopi oral traditions:
"Primitive Wolfen humanoid males had broad chests and with little or no waists, large and powerful buttocks with strong thighs and thick calves. Primitive Wolfen females had large chests and a very slight feminine curve to their bodies. They had large hips and muscular legs. And although they had lost most of their thick and coarse body hair, they still retained a fine dark hair all over their torsos. Their arms were large and muscular, their wrists were thick, and their hands broad and rounded. Unlike the long fingers of the Reptilian Beings of Orion the Wolfen Ones had shorter and fatter fingers. Their necks were also thick and quite short."
"The large broad heads of their primitive primate ancestors had become slightly more rounded, but their square lower jaws stil gave them a very imposing appearance. They had broad noses with piercing hunter's eyes, a large forehead, and small ears. And perhaps the most dominating feature of all…hair. Lots of hair. The manes of their ancestors had given them coarse beards on the faces of the males and long sideburns with chin whiskers on the females. As Wolfen women braided heir hair, so too Wolfen men braided their beards. Their hair and beards ranged in color from a golden brown to dark shades of auburn brown to a deep jet black. One race even had thick and long manes of deep red hair. When take-together, all of these features served to give the Wolfen people the distinct resemblance with humanoid lions."[3]
Surprisingly the Sirians, the way they have looked like for millions of years, are also described in Robert's work as short and sturdy, not as giants. This could be to their great advantage, however, as a shorter person, if strong and quick, can outdo a taller, less mobile individual. A typical example of this is the biblical story about David and Goliath. When I hear the Sirian Overlords described in this fashion, it immediately makes me think of J.R.R. Tolkien's dwarves; especially how they are depicted in the film trilogy by Peter Jackson, 'The Lord of the Rings' (fig. 2-2).
Figure 2-2. Gimli from the movie, 'The Lord of the Rings'.
Were the Sirian 'Wolfen Lords' an archetype for J.R.R. Tolkien's dwarves?
Others, however, suggest that they look more like D'Argo in Farscape, and that seems pretty plausible, because there you can also see the Reptilian feature. I have had both Gimli and D'Argo (fig. 2-2-1) confirmed by two different sources as being very close to how the Sirian Overlords look.
Figure 2-2-1. An even more accurate picture of how the Sirian Overlords look like? Very plausible. This is from the sci fi series, Farscape, and the character's name is D'Argo.
We can sometimes get a hint of how they looked like in the Sumerian tablets as well, although the bodies they used here on Earth (and still do) are not really their original bodies, but were genetically manipulated and cloned to blend in better with the human societies of the time. Like author and researcher R.A. Boulay said in his excellent book, Flying Serpents and Dragons from 1990, in Sumerian times they seem to have showed themselves off as more majestic and larger in size than humans, just to emphasize their superiority, perhaps, and they kept their locked hair and long, braided beards. We can also see that their eyes are depicted as bigger than those of humans, with an odd shape, which is probably more similar to how their original eyes look like. We also see them depicted at times as extremely tall Reptilians, Dragons (even flying Dragons), people with bird-heads and human bodies, crocodile-heads, hyena heads, wolf heads, and jackal heads etc.; all with humanoid torsos. Knowing what we know now about nano-travel and avatars, many of these beings are most certainly depicted in the shapes and forms in which they sometimes mocked themselves up in front of humans, either to intimidate or to show certain traits to create a specific impact on our ancestors. Today, however, the bodies these people use when mingling with us are very human-like. In fact, they are neither giants, nor dwarfs, but are such that we could pass them on the street and never notice, except if we look them deep in the eyes. If we do, we may get this strange feeling that the person's eyes have more of a cat- or reptilian-like slit which bleeds through at times, while other times they are able to hide it.
Morning Sky in his 'Eden, Atlantis, and the UFO Myth' goes on telling us that the sexual behavior of this star race was quite violent in the past. A dominant male had to prove himself before the female and defeat her in battle. If he couldn't, he was not worthy. If he could, they mated, often violently. A male could keep a harem if he wanted to; it proved his status if he showed that he was capable of keep as many females as he could possibly handle. This showed that he was a warrior and had managed to 'tame' all these females after had defeated them in a one-to-one battle. In their society, it was very much the survival of the fittest and strongest. Males could also steal wives from each other, and if the original husband couldn't steal her back, the female was often pleased with her new husband because he was obviously of a stronger stock than her previous; it was all about survival in a very harsh environment. Although they eventually realized that body death is not the end of it, being defeated and killed was considered a weakness and something the soul brought with her into the next body. It was almost like this species was seeded to become a warrior race, which makes me suspect that their Founders had this in mind, but perhaps had no idea what they had put into existence — or did they?
It seems like this star race has kept almost all of these features into present time. In Morning Sky's work, the Sirian warrior race is described as quite barbaric, both in every-day life and in war. On the battlefield they eat their enemies, and if an enemy soldier is not quite dead, they are eaten alive. This sounds very macabre to us, but if we think about what we know regarding this star race from other sources, it shouldn't come as a surprise. In Sitchin's books, they are presented as a very promiscuous, incestuous, and barbaric race as well. To make sure that the bloodline of an enemy didn't continue past a certain point, they chopped off, or even bit off each other's private parts and threw them to the vultures, in the river, or they ate them.[4] The Pleiadians say that, besides using us as their slave labor, the Sirians are also using us as their food source; both in physical and metaphysical terms. They eat us, literally, when they feel like it, but also eat our energy (which is our souls) by feeding off of our fears, terrors, anxiety, hate, and other lower vibrational emotions. In addition, they say, this star race also drink our blood, because the blood contains the elements of the soul as well[5]. History has showed that all these traits are not exaggerations. Morning Sky adds to this by telling us that in dire times the Sirians even eat their young. In total contrast to the Orion Empire, the Sirians, and what was to develop into the Sirian Empire, is male dominated to the extreme. Curiously enough, the Sirian prince, Utu Šamaš (pronounced: Shamash), whom I've been in contact with, told me, after I had presented this barbaric description of him and his star race in 'Level I', that I was 'surprisingly correct' when comes to describing the Sirians, so it seems we get confirmation directly from the horse's mouth.
It may sound like I am trying to demonize this star race, which is not at all my intention. I still believe that there are those of the Sirian race, even amongst the group that visited Earth, who were, and are, friendlier around mankind; in other words, they are being more spiritually evolved than their brothers and sisters. Kudos to those, but they are mostly out of the scope of this series of papers, as they seem to have very little impact on how we are treated today, and my intention is to give the reader an as clear picture as possible of how this star race is affecting us in present time and what we can do about it. The evidence of their negative involvement in our evolution is no less than abundant; I even dare say, overwhelming.
3. The Sirians Become a Space-Faring Species
All evidence points to that the Sirians have become a very technically advanced society, but still with a strict hierarchal structure, where different kings rule with an iron fist over the rest of the population. Bloodlines are extremely important for the Sirians, because a strong and pure bloodline means survival and power over others. Therefore, the Royal Bloodlines of the Sirians are considered the strongest, most ruthless, and most powerful of them all. This is one of the reasons why incest is practiced, but they also realize that if a family only produces offspring within their own bloodline, it is going to weaken them after a certain amount of generations, so on occasion, they also create offspring by marrying someone from another powerful bloodline, where both parties may benefit from such a relationship. Additionally, it only makes sense that the same souls incarnate over and over within the same family if they can stand the competition with other souls.
In Sitchin's work, and even when talking to LPG-C, very little is said about the Ša.AM.i working class. All we hear about is the Royal Families and their spoiled, revengeful sons and daughter who use other worlds and innocent beings as playgrounds and toys for their war games and pumping of testosterone. When the working class is mentioned at all, they are presented as slave labor, just as ourselves, or soldiers who fight and die on the battlefield. Apparently, as a law for the upper class, a Lord is no not killing another Lord; it is strictly forbidden and rarely happens, except, there are casualties in wars, where they accidentally kill each other, according to A.R. Other than that, when comes to middle class and lower class, those rules don't apply. Of course, biting off each other's private parts is not murder, so no one thinks twice about that, even if it happens in a feud, Lord against Lord. Albeit, Kings have been overthrown and killed by their own sons or blood relatives, or by someone from a rival Royal bloodline. This has happened both according to Sitchin and Morning Sky. King AL-AL fled for his life when he was overthrown, for example, and in the Sirian society a King is also a Lord, so it's hard to say where they put the boundaries.
We've already covered that the Sirians are partly Reptilians, and may even be the Reptilians who people are discussing ever so often in books and on the Internet. In all reptilian manner they have hierarchies based on the capabilities of each individual. The stronger and more ruthless dominates the weaker etc, and this caste system is always a rule and not an exception. Democracy is far from a fair political system, and hearing the above, no one would say that the Sirian society is democratic. However, as A.R. reports in his essay, 'The Link', the Ša.AM.i are now heading towards a more democratic system with a more humane society. I would say, I believe it when I see it, and so far there are no indications that this group of Sirians are heading towards something humane. A.R., too, expresses his doubts, but tries to keep an open mind and stay hopeful, working on, as he says, trying to find a group within the Ša.AM.i culture which is willing to support mankind's sovereignty as a biokind, and who support our evolution on our own terms.
In the Sirian caste system, people either call each other by name, without a title (which is equivalent to a stranger talking to a stranger, or two people who don't like each other), or they call each other 'brothers' if they are friends or are working towards a common goal.Utu Šamaš, King Nannar's son and King ANU's grandson, told me that the title 'Lord' is something you earn when you have done something extraordinary to support the Ša.AM.i society. I was surprised, however, when Uti said I couldn't call him 'Lord', because I am not a Lord myself. I had to call him Utu. A human, he said, can be dubbed 'Lord' as well under the above circumstances.
Like ourselves, the Sirians had it in their DNA to explore the stars, and to expand their domains. They built spaceships that could travel within their solar system and could even visit the other two stars in the Sirius system, because they were close, and explore and populate planets there as well. However, then they faced the same problem as all star races do on that level of development, and the question arose: "how do we get to the stars? How can we travel long distance?" This was a huge problem for the Sirians, who wanted to go out and conquer and show themselves off on the battlefield. They understood there must be life out there, on planets orbiting other suns farther away. So they became excellent engineers and their technologies and weapon industry developed in enormous speed. Still, they couldn't break the barrier; what was required to be able to leave the solar system?
While their scientists worked on an answer, the Sirian Kings worked on increasing the mining projects in their own solar system; something that went on for quite a while. Due to the gravity of the three suns (Sirius A, B, and C), worlds sometimes didn't last long in those solar systems and planets bumped into each other and got destroyed. The Sirians took advantage of this, because from once had been larger planets, the heavenly bodies that bumped into each other afterwards became smaller asteroids and planetoids which were easier to dig into and mine. Sometimes they used the resources of such worlds to the extreme and found the technology to hollow them out entirely. That's when they got the brilliant idea which was later going to get them to the stars.
If they could hollow out asteroids that easily and only let a shell remain, they could also create a whole little world inside and use them as spaceships. But not only spaceships; they could also use them as deadly battleships. Finding this out made them very excited and they started implementing their ideas and equipped these world with their latest weaponry and tried it out in the solar systems. By inventing something which was later going to be called something similar to 'push and pull drives', they could maneuver these giant death stars, going against the solar currents, but also letting the hollowed-out asteroids glide on solar winds and cosmic currents so that they looked like any normal asteroid and could therefore not be detected if it wasn't known which one was a real asteroid and which one was a ship.
This story is backed up in details by Robert Morning Sky in both his Terra Papers, but more so, even, in his 'Eden, Atlantis and the UFO Myth'. Over the years, when I've listened to the Pleiadians and read Marciniak's books, I've noticed that they, too, are giving hints to the same thing. Here, for example, is a quote from the book, Family of Light:
"…Build your foundation with your physical form, and then you will begin to understand what is happening in the heavens; What the comets are, what the great energy waves embody, who builds and flies the spaceships, and from what line of time they jump."[6] [my emphasis].
It is unclear exactly when the Sirians were starting their interstellar travels and how they found out how to do it, but one day, apparently, they discovered the so-called Einstein-Rosen Bridges (stargates) and how these sometimes led right onto a cosmic highway which finally could take them to the stars. With a few adjustments (one of them was to develop something like a fold drive, where they could travel across folded space to quickly get to another location in space), the Sirian star race was ready to reach the stars. They learned how to travel the galactic highways in their hollowed out battleships and they became a deadly force and extremely successful invaders. With time they became excellent travelers of the Void.
What they did was that they traveled together in huge armadas of hollowed-out asteroids across the star lanes and suddenly appeared in a solar system far away from their home in Sirius. Even if there was a fairly advanced star race living in that foreign system, with a tight security system, they would never think twice about a swarm of comets of asteroids coming into the solar system. It happens all the time in all star systems. So they were always taken by surprise when the Sirian deadly forces started using their highly murderous weapons that could wipe out whole civilizations before they even had time to get together and defend themselves. Who could defend themselves against solid heavenly bodies?
The Sirians seldom took prisoners of war. The battles were usually an orgy in slaughtering, flesh-eating and blood drinking, rape and torture. A new King, lower in rank than the Khanus King (the major Sirian King of the home Sirius star system), was then put on the throne on the newly conquered world and Sirians started migrating to the new planet, and so the empire grew with time.
The Sirian Overlords were extremely pleased to say that they had never lost a war; no star race had been able to resist them or defeat them. They started looking at themselves as the Kings of the Universe. Until the day when they reached the outskirts of the Orion Empire…
Figure 2-3 and 2-4. This is a picture of a painting in a Yugoslavian Monastery, interestingly enough, here in a newspaper clip. We could ask ourselves, did the artist know something that regular people don't know? Is this guy piloting a comet?
4. The Sirian Overlords Today
In the next paper we are going to see what happened when the Sirians and the Aryans met for the first time and what that violent encounter developed into. But to complete the overview on whom the Sirians are, and as a complement to what I wrote in 'Level I', let's say a few words about whom they are today.
While the Aryans have evolved to become a spiritual empire, the Sirians have mainly built theirs on technology and never really cared too much about the spiritual part of existence. They are fully aware of that the Universe is feminine in nature but are keeping that part secret. Since they started expanding their Empire, they have now laid quite a few star systems under their jurisdiction and are still considered being a feared, violent race. They are excellent pilots of the KHAA, and after billions or years, they are apparently still to a large degree using hollowed-out craft in their space fleet, although I'm sure they've found even more profound ways to travel between star systems in their asteroids.
I also know that they are using other type of craft as well, at least when they are cruising our solar system. Some have described encounters with them where they have been using a big, black triangular 'mothership' with three big lights underneath; one in each corner of the triangle. In the dark, it therefore looks like there are three smaller ships. Other shapes have been reported as well. However, there is much more to the story about UFOs in the sky than has been told to the public, and I will bring that up in a later paper.
Since their first attempts to conquer space as a species anchored in 4% space/time with solid bodies like ours, they have evolved into becoming interdimensional beings who can also nano-travel. It is my qualified guess that the main reasons they have kept their hollowed-out craft technology is simply because they can hide in plain sight, and these solid ships are still excellent weapons. However, it is my full conviction that the major threat from them do not come from some kind of invasion where we fight in physical bodies in some huge Battle of Armageddon. Albeit, this may be a part of it, the major threat is going to come from the nano world.
5. A Closer Look at Nibiru
Ever since Sitchin wrote about Nibiru being the home planet of what he called the 'Anunnaki' there has been controversy regarding this planet. People are disputing the authenticity, and it doesn't seem to go away. Debates have gone back and forth what this twelfth planet is, if anything. I believe there is no part or section of Sitchin's work that has been so much discussed and disputed as this alleged big planet in its 3,600 years orbit around our sun; the planet which moons say to have split Maldek/Phaethon/Mulge/Marduk (the old planet between Mars and Jupiter) in two during at least two of its passages through our solar system and created the asteroid belt and Planet Earth.
I would say that the reason Nibiru is so controversy is because it's not mentioned in the Sumerian scriptures as the home planet of the Ša.AM.i. Interesting as well; I have never seen the Ša.A.M.i. mention anywhere that Nibiru is their home planet. They have never taken that word in their mouth from what I know of; at least it's not mentioned in public. They say they come from Sirius. What A.R. and LPG-C call Nibiru, the Incoming call Ša.A.M.e. Yes, they agree that this 'home planet' is on a 3,600 years orbit around the solar system, but they never seem to take the word 'Nibiru' in their mouths.
Figure 2-6. Tablet VA-243.
Anton Parks says in his long Appendix about Nibiru being the Planet Venus, that he thinks Sitchin draws his conclusions that Nibiru is the Anunnaki home planet from clay tablet VA-243, (fig. 2-6).
At the left side of the tablet, between the two figures standing up, there is a drawing looking like a sun in the middle, surrounded by what seems to be 11 planets or satellites. Parks says that this tablet is not an astronomical tablet, and the only inscription pertaining to it says, "Dusbsiga (a personal name), Ili-Illat (personal name), your servant". Dr. Michael Heiser, another Sitchin criticizer, is interpreting it to say pretty much the same[4]. There is apparently no text or indication whatsoever that VA-243 is talking about the Anunnaki gods. Parks tells us (translated from French into English):
"Here are places which mention Nibiru: (Enuma Elish and shelves: KAV 21B, CT 26.41, CT 25.35.7, and K. K.6174 12,769). In short, it [is] referring to the clay tablet VA-243 that Mr. Sitchin tells us has noted the presence of the mysterious planet revolving around what appears to be a sun. However, this tablet is absolutely not an astronomical document. It was published in 1940, and is in the care of Anton Moortgat for Vorderasiatisches Museum in Berlin. The three lines that make up the text of this tablet just evoke "Dusbsiga (personal name), Hi-Illats (personal name), your servant ." So no reference to Neberu and no trace of this planet as home of the 'gods' Anunna."[7]
Figure 2-7. Anton Parks
I would argue with this conclusion, because even if the tablet doesn't mention the Anunnaki (the man on the seat is a giant), and even if it doesn't mention a sun and planets that are orbiting it, it looks pretty obvious to me that it is. In my wildest imagination I can't see that it could be anything else than that. However, the 'sun' with its 11 'planets' may not even relate to our solar system; Sitchin may have gotten that wrong, too. According to the Sirians and LPG-C, Ša.A.M.e., the home planet of the Ša.A.M.i., has 11 satellites (moons) orbiting its planet. Can it be that what looks like a solar system on the VA-243 tablet actually depicts Ša.A.M.e. and its 11 moons, and the depiction of the Ša.A.M.e system in the tablet is actually a way to tell the viewer that this tablet is discussing something pertaining to the Ša.AM.i? The 'sun' in the middle could emphasize that this is indeed the home planet in the middle and the 'planets' are in fact moons. It would be interesting to hear someone with knowledge in the Sumerian cuneiform debate that.
Parks is also criticizing Sitchin, not only for connecting Nibiru with the home planet of the Anunna, but also for letting us know that its orbit around our sun is 3,600 years. According to Parks, there are no such indications anywhere in the Sumerian scriptures. So where did Sitchin get this seemingly ludicrous idea from?
Well, I stand by my belief that Sitchin knew what he was doing; he had a purpose with everything he wrote and discussed. I think he knew very well what of which he was writing was true and what was not. The critics who say that a planet spending most of its time in deep space can't host any intelligent life don't know anything about the Sirians and their technology. Evidence also points in the direction that major catastrophes can be traced back every 3,600 years (give or take), which would coincide with the passing of a big planetary object.
Regarding Sitchin's credibility, I can count to five different options:
He started out with good intentions, but when the Sirian Overlords and their earthbound faction found out about his project, they 'visited' him and perhaps started out with suggesting that if he wrote his series of books 'their way', they would be bestsellers. If manipulating Sitchin didn't work, they may have threatened him into doing it.
Sitchin knew, from being in contact with the Ša.AM.i, or from having access to tablets that were never made public, that there is more to the story than is described in the public tablets (similar to that there are tons of books that could have been part of the Bible were edited out and hidden from the public). After all, there are still a lot of tablets missing that they say they haven't found yet. Or have they? So, Sitchin used certain terms, like Nibiru, and gave them certain attributes he saw appropriate to enhance an agenda, knowing that very few scholars knew how to translate the cuneiform. He thought he was 'safe' and that his story was so good that people prefer to believe it's true, even the parts that are not.
He channeled some of the material in his books, or someone Sitchin knew well, did. If so, it explains why some of his information seems to be accurate while other parts are not; the entities were not honest.
Sitchin was a pawn and/or a mind-controlled slave to the PTB and the Ša.AM.i. Hence, he wrote his books in a compartmentalized state.
Sitchin was himself a Ša.AM.i, possessing a human body. If this was the case, the Sirian spirit, inhabiting the body, could write whatever he wanted which would enhance future events that will fulfill prophecies. And better yet, this spirit very well knew the real story, because it was part of his own history.
Sitchin died in October 2010, so no one can ask him anymore, but people tried, and he only answered questions he felt he wanted to answer and failed to address the rest. Sometimes he didn't even reply to other scholars' questions as of how he could come to certain conclusions, which Sitchin's son apparently said was because Sitchin didn't own a computer; he wrote everything by hand or used an old-fashioned typewriter. I don't know what is true or not in that case. However, if I had to choose one of the options, 1-5 above, I would say #5 is the most plausible one, only because it answers most questions. This is just based on opinion and my own logic, so I could be wrong. However, I strongly believe that one of the options, or a mix of them, is true. What I do not think is that he was a genuine researcher and scholar who had the best interest of mankind in mind and that he did 'the best he could'.
Gerry Zeitlin, who published Parks' work in English, also emphasizes that there is no reference in the Sumerian tablets to that the Anunna come from Nibiru:
"I repeat, there is none! [If there were,] the whole world could verify it, a thing which has definitely not been done up to the present. I insist and I show this in my recent book. I am not asking anyone to believe words that I have received affirming 'this version is better than any other'. On the contrary, I must insist that Mr. Sitchin doesn't seem to know the truth about the tablets that he pretends to analyze. Otherwise, he would long ago have given the references to those tablets that a rash handful have demanded of him for years…"
"Nowhere is there any written allusion such as 'the Anunna of Neberu' or 'the gods of Neberu' or 'they descended from Neberu'." [GMSS][8]
It needs to be noted, however, that instead of Nibiru, Parks (and the Zeitlin couple) state that the Anunna come from Dukù in the Pleiades, which is incorrect, probably due to his own mistranslation.
Sitchin is using Nibiru consistently throughout his books as a key element in his story, and always refers it to the home planet of the gods. However, says Zeitlin and Parks, the few times the word Neberu (Nibiru) is used, it seems to be pertaining to Jupiter or Mercury. Parks also says on a few other occasions that he thinks Nibiru is equivalent to Venus in the Sumerian scriptures, being the so-called Mulge-Tab[9], which was the moon of Maldek, the planet between Mars and Jupiter, who split in a million pieces in the far past.
Another issue is gold. Sitchin claims that the Anunnaki needed gold to rebuild the dying atmosphere of their home planet, while Parks claims there are no such claims in the tablets. Gold, however, and other substances, were used to enhance the longevity of the gods, something the Ša.A.M.i. and LPG-C have stated, as well as Morning Sky. All these contradictions seem to indicate that Sitchin simply knew more than he said; at least that's how I interpret it. Too much of Sitchin's translations are actually correct to dismiss him as a linguist; he knew what he was doing. Although, could some of it be guesswork on his part? Not in my opinion. The way he's telling the story, with warts and all, comes too close to fitting into the whole agenda of ancient prophecy, something we will learn in a later paper. In one way or the other, he was in alliance with the Sirians; there is little doubt in my mind. He knew they are here and he was in contact with them, is my conclusion. It is doubtful that the Ša.AM.i need gold to rebuild their atmosphere for reasons we will soon go into, but it could be something they used as disinformation so that we feel empathy for them and understand why they had to come here and dig for gold and other minerals; they want us to believe that it was for survival purposes.
Parks and Zeitlin make a few other comparisons between Parks' translations and those of Sitchin's, but I think I made their points here, and if the reader wants to know more, please visit the site of the Zeitlin couple here: http://www.zeitlin.net/EndEnchantment/AGNebHeru.html.
I think it makes perfect sense that the Ša.A.M.i. use hollowed out planets as battleships, or 'death stars', like the one we saw in Star Wars. They also work as temporary homes when they leave their current home star system in Sirius. Interestingly enough, I read an article some time ago from The Daily Galaxy, which is a bonafied astronomy newsletter, with the title, Space Ships as 'Death Stars'? — Leading Space Travel Physicists Say 'Yes'[10]. So it looks like they are already now starting to prepare us for what is to come.
Figure 2-8. Death Star, a hollowed out planet
Scientifically speaking, it's not at all impossible for the Sirians to have a planet in a 3,600 years orbit around our sun. If they want to call it Nibiru, Ša.A.M.e., Planet X, or something else, it's up to them.
After have researched it, and also taken part of LPG-C's research, I have no doubts that a Planet X is entering the solar system, coming in from the south. It is a red planet, followed by 11 satellites/moons, and it has been spotted by NASA at least since 1982, when it was all over the news. I think there is enough evidence that this is the case. And by the way, here is some more:

The next paper is going to discuss the Galactic Wars where both the Sirian Overlords and the Aryans were involved. But the story takes an interesting turn, because at one point, the Sirians and the Aryans fought side by side…

Libya Mission's Final Costs Reach $347M
');}catch(e){}
Defence Minister Peter MacKay is defending the government's accounting of the costs of Canada's military mission in Libya, following the release of new figures by the Department of National Defence that lay out the final cost of the deployment.
The department puts the incremental costs of the mission — costs the military says would not have been incurred if Canadian Forces had not been deployed — at just under $100 million.
And the total cost of the operation — a figure that includes everything from jet fuel to pilot salaries, including the salaries of military personnel — comes in at $347 million.
Last October, MacKay told CBC Radio's The House the Libyan mission had cost taxpayers less than $50 million.
"As of Oct. 13, the figures that I've received have us well below that, somewhere under $50 million," MacKay said.
"And that's the all-up costs of the equipment that we have in the theatre, the transportation to get there, those that have been carrying out this critical mission."
Canada sent six CF-18 fighter jets and a navy frigate to Libya in 2011 to take part in international operations to enforce a United Nations no-fly zone against the forces of Moammar Gadhafi.
Government defends numbers
MacKay faced tough questions in question period Friday over the discrepancy in costs.
"What is it this time?" demanded NDP Deputy Leader David Christopherson, "That they still can't keep their numbers straight or that they're misleading Canadians?"
Mackay insisted his numbers were accurate.
"What I said was that, as of Oct. 13, the figures that I received from the department were under $50 million," MacKay said in response.
The minister continued, "Of course, the mission went on. There were extensions ... there was, in fact, then the cost of bringing equipment and personnel home. This is incremental costing."
At an event in Edmonston, N.B., on Friday, Prime Minister Stephen Harper noted the total figure of $347 million includes the ongoing costs of operating the Canadian military, and he defended the earlier estimates.
"We always give the most up-to-date figures and it's important also to know ... that these figures include normal operations of the Canadian military, of those assets over that period," Harper said.
"All of these numbers, all of the costs of the Libya mission, were accomplished within the budget set by the government for the Department of National Defence, so this is not new money."
MacKay knew estimated cost: Vance
The director of the military's strategic joint staff was called on to explain duelling figures at a hastily-assembled news conference at National Defence headquarters on Friday afternoon.
Maj.-Gen. Jon Vance said MacKay did not mislead the public and pointed out senior military leaders referenced the figures publicly during Senate committee hearings.
But he concedes the minister would have known the estimated cost at the time and did not speculate on why MacKay chose to go with the lower figures exclusively.
Opposition parties slammed the Harper government for the confusion and compared it to the controversy surrounding the F-35 stealth fighter purchase, in which the auditor general accused National Defence of deliberately low-balling the multibillion-dollar estimate.
"Peter's got problems with his math yet again and this government's got problems with trying to figure out how to cost things," said NDP foreign affairs critic Paul Dewar. "I suppose he just thinks that if he can lowball it, people won't be concerned about the costs. But, you know, in the end, the costs add up and it caught up to Mr. MacKay."

Hawaii Becomes Latest State to Approve Task Force to Examine Bitcoin, Web3 Technology
Altrady Blog/News/Hawaii Becomes Latest State to Approve Task Force to Examine Bitcoin, Web3 Technology
The Hawaii State Senate today approved bill SB2695, co-signed by Sens. Donovan Dela Cruz and Rosalyn "Roz" Baker, that establishes a blockchain and cryptocurrency task force.
As crypto becomes more mainstream, thanks partly to the interest in NFTs, governments worldwide are looking for ways to regulate and take advantage of digital assets like Bitcoin.
In March, President Joe Biden signed an executive order for "Ensuring Responsible Development of Digital Assets," intending to protect American citizens from scams while not stifling innovation. State governments are following suit.
Hawaii's bill, "A Bill for an Act Related to Cryptocurrency," aims to see how the state can regulate, provide oversight, and potentially use blockchain technology and cryptocurrency. The task force intends to review data from other states, including but not limited to the development of "a plan to expand blockchain adoption in both the private and public sectors."
The task force will include both government officials and members of the Web3 space, plus professors from the University of Hawaii that specialize in digital currency who will be appointed by the Senate and governor. The group intends to report its findings before the 2024 legislative session begins, at which point the task force is dissolved.
According to research from the National Conference of State Legislatures, in addition to Washington, D.C., and Puerto Rico, there are at least 37 states considering crypto-related bills.
Last year, the U.S. House passed a bill, "Eliminate Barriers to Innovation Act of 2021," co-sponsored by Congressmen Patrick McHenry (R-NC) and Stephen Lynch (D-MA), to establish at a federal level method for examining how digital assets may affect the nation.

You seem to take backup seriously. I do too. In fact, I am working on a post about backups/cloning. I am currently at the testing stage. After having tested both Carbon Copy Cloner, and SuperDuper!, I decided to register SuperDuper! as it seems to be less CPU-intensive between the two.
iPhoto is an excellent Mac OS X application created by Apple which is used by countless amateurs (like yours truly) to manage their digital photo collection.
While iPhoto is a good photo management application, it does have its limits though, especially when it comes to editting the photos (compared to say Photoshop Elements). With Photoshop Elements, I can use the Levels dialog to choose the highlights, shadows, and midtones. Choosing the right midtones will, very often, be enough to correct a colour cast.
Have you noticed that importing photos in iPhoto is quite CPU-intensive?
As for iPhoto, the latest version '08 has a pretty good editor (with excellent straightening, cropping and red eye removal facilities.) It also can color-correct and change the shadows/highlights of a photo. Its sharpening is also good enough. All in all, I practically never use another image editor for my digital photos.
I'm starting to like it more, the more I use it.

Great post. I just added a Nikon D200 to my collection of cameras (I hit the D40 limits pretty quickly) and have started shooting in RAW. With pictures 10MB apiece, I will need all the space I need.
Will SuperDuper keep archived images on the backup medium even if I remove some from my main iPhoto Library? Or, will it forcibly sync the two so that an image removed from the main library also be removed from the backup, which would not be desirable?
SuperDuper! propagates changes i.e. all images removed from the source will also be removed from the destination. The reason is that SuperDuper! produces an exact clone of your iPhoto library which seamlessly can be opened by iPhoto.
If you only want to copy all your RAWs or JPEGs and never ever delete something from the destination, I would advise you to use rsync without the –delete option. Mind you, this won't create an iPhoto-compliant library.
I think almost all serious amateur photographers, eventually start to shoot RAW, once they've move into the DSLR world.
Doesn't SuperDuper! has an option to not delete what is already on the external drive? Personally, I just make sure I maintain my MacBook internal drive the way I want it, and let SuperDuper! clone it. The main drawback is, unlike Time Machine, I cannot restore deleted files. The ideal solution would be to have a few external HDD, and to clone to one at a time, or a least two external drive, each at least twice the capacity of the internal drive, and rotate four partitions.
I HAVE managed to come up with a workflow that will allow me to a) retain my current backup strategy and b) save enough space for current RAW images being processed. Here is how it works.
1. Use iPhoto Library Manager to split current photo library into two: one for current images and another for archived images.
2. Back up both images libraries to external disk and remove archive one from internal disk.
3. As current images library grows, use iPhoto Library Manager to move them across to archive library on external HDD.
4. Back up archive image libraries to DVD in the same current staggered manner.
RAW is great. I was a click away from ordering Lightroom 2.0 (at $299) when I came across UFRAW. UFRAW reads RAW/NEF files and integrate well with GIMP. Both UFRAW and GIMP have support for colour profiles, which makes them suitable for photo processing.
@Avinash: I have thousands of images post-processed with iPhoto. I have also discarded other thousands because iPhoto could not recover them from bad shooting, etc. Yesterday, I was about to throw some away, then I gave GIMP a try — it integrates well with iPhoto with the correct preferences — and managed to recover them (they were not RAW, just simple JPG). I guess what I am trying to say is, try to use GIMP instead of iPhoto for your post-processing. You will be amazed.
HAVING written ALL that, I realise that I could share my external disk through my Airport Extreme Base station and set that up as my main iPhoto Library medium. It should be comfortable to work with for casual photo browsing while maintaining a second library on the internal disk for post-processing current images.
@Avinash – Yeah, I could have written a blog post, but that would only scatter the information in multiple places. It is easier for a search-er to pick up the info from one place.
UFRAW and GIMP seems to be a good (cheap) alternative to LightRoom 2.0/Photoshop.
hi Avinash, great instructions. However, i store videos on Iphoto, on a library called iphoto_video – it is kept on an external hard drive. Can you use super duper to back up from one ext hd to another?
Just select the correct Volume name in SuperDuper! and everything should be ok.

Q: How to delete an item from CDK drop List in Angular I have been trying to implement a cdk Drag&Drop List. I have two components Item-list and Item. Below I have attached the code;
item-list.component.html:

<form [formGroup]="newTodoForm" class="flex mt-4">
<mat-form-field appearance="fill"
  ><input
    matInput
    placeholder="Add daily"
    formControlName="todoItem"
    (keyup.enter)="addTask()"
    autocomplete="off"
    #textInput
/></mat-form-field>
 </form>

<app-item
[value]="value"
*ngFor="let value of dailyList; index as i"
[type]="'DAILY'"
cdkDrag
>
</app-item>

item.component.html:

<mat-checkbox
  (change)="OnChange($event)"
  [checked]="IsChecked"
>
</mat-checkbox>

{{ value.Task | uppercase }}

<Matbutton mat-icon-button [matMenuTriggerFor]="menu">
  <mat-icon>more_vert</mat-icon>
</Matbutton>
<mat-menu #menu="matMenu">
  <button mat-menu-item>
    <mat-icon class="deleteitem" (click)="removeTask(value)"
      >delete</mat-icon
    >
    remove
   </button>
   </mat-menu>

I have a delete button in the above item component. so for every item created with a delete button. But when the button is triggered, it provides typeError on console.
item.component.ts:
import { CdkDragDrop, moveItemInArray } from '@angular/cdk/drag-drop';
import { Component, EventEmitter, Input, OnInit, Output } from '@angular/core';
import { ItemType } from './item.data';

@Input() public type: ItemType = 'DAILY';
@Input()
 value: any;
IsChecked: boolean;

@Input() dailyList: any;

constructor() {
this.IsChecked = false;
}

ngOnInit(): void {
console.log('ItemComponent', this.type);
}

drop(event: CdkDragDrop<string[]>) {
moveItemInArray(this['dailyList'], event.previousIndex, event.currentIndex);

Today is the tenth anniversary of Brian's accident. As I look back over the last ten years, it has been quite a journey thus far for our family. We have had very low points as well as very high points. I know that each person looking back on his life will see the same, but it feels like our journey has been multiplied by the many people we have interacted with on this journey. I would never wish a spinal cord injury on any one, but I have learned that life does go on after the accident or injury. As Brian says your outlook determines how you cope with your life's circumstances.
I want to personally thank each of you for following Brian's journey. Thank you for your many prayers, your uplifting words, and the practical advice and contacts I have gathered during this time. Thank you to everyone who helped work on our house from the first door that was cut into the wall by our church family so he could get in to the last paint spot applied by the many workers who came out for the Home Makeover to give Brian his own house. Thank you for those who dropped off a gift card, a dinner, a sweet, a bag for his wheelchair or any of the many gifts he has received. Tonight he received another gift from the wonderful people at C &OPD who helped with Brian's care while Steve was having his knee replacement. They brought us a piece of equipment for his house that we had been looking into getting. We were so lucky that they came into our lives for several reasons. I am always grateful for all that is done for us.
Now that it has been ten years, I have a much better understanding of a spinal cord injury. I follow all the new research and clinical trials. I am still convinced the same way I was on the night of the accident that Brian will walk again. I keep that thought always in mind when I do anything for Brian. Between God and science, Brian and others like him will be able to heal and make real progress. Please continue to follow on our journey with us. Please continue to pray for Brian. He is answered prayers in action.
I agree with Samantha! Love and prayers!
What a wonderful remembrance of a decade of life. What I read in this is a family united by love. Bless you all as you continue to work toward walking for Brian!
WOW 10! There has been soooo much in a decade!
I have had the honor of getting to know you all. Although it is through cyberspace, we have a connection. It is an honor to pray and to see prayers answered. I too believe Brian will walk again! We pray and believe for miracle healing for Brian and others we know with chronic conditions. Thank you for keeping the connection alive for all of us!

1 million children in India still don't go to school
Yoshita Singh
India, Indonesia and Pakistan each have more than a million children out of school, according to a United Nations report which said the global number of unschooled children aged 6 to 11 is still as high as 58 million, showing little overall improvement since 2007.
The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation report said that India had 1.4 million children out of school in 2011 but the country is among 17 other nations that have managed to reduce the number of out-of-school children in the past decade.
Combined with UNESCO's recent news that aid to education has fallen yet again, the lack of progress in reducing out of school numbers confirms our fears -- there is no chance whatsoever that countries will reach the goal of universal primary education by 2015," UNESCO Director-General Irina Bokova said in a statement.
"Pakistan had 5.4 million children out of school in 2012 while the figure for Indonesia was 1.3 million.

The UNESCO's policy paper said that positive change is possible, spotlighting success in 17 countries that have reversed that trend over the past decade.
The 17 countries, including Burundi, Yemen, Ghana, Nepal, Rwanda, India, Iran and Vietnam, accounted for about one-quarter of the global out-of-school population in 2000. But they managed to reduce their out-of-school numbers by 86 per cent, from 27 million to less than four million, in little over a decade.
The UNESCO Institute for Statistics, which produced the policy paper, said that 15 million girls and 10 million boys, constituting around 43 per cent of those out of school, are unlikely to ever get access to primary education if the current situation remains the same.
"We cannot meet this news with further inertia. On the contrary, we must sound the alarm and mobilise the political will to ensure that every child's right to education is respected," she said.

The lack of global progress is largely due to high population growth in sub-Saharan Africa, which is now home to more than 30 million out-of-school children. Most of them will never start school and those who do are at risk of dropping out.
The paper also shows critical gaps in the education of older children aged 12 to 15. Globally, 63 million adolescents were out of school in 2012.
Numbers have fallen by nearly one-third since 2000 in South and West Asia, the region has the largest population of out-of-school adolescents at 26 million.
According to the UNESCO paper, abolishing school fees, introducing more relevant curricula, devoting increased attention to ethnic and linguistic minorities and providing financial support to families in need could have a positive role in promoting and extending the right to education to every human being.
Bokova stressed that progress is possible and that many countries have been key examples in driving positive changes in education for all.

An entire generation of superhero fans will grow up with Christopher Nolan's Batman films as the definitive version of Gotham City, but for many, Bruce Timm's Batman: The Animated Series still stands as a high point for the Caped Crusader. Now Batfanatics can get the best of both worlds thanks to YouTuber xNick1718x, who has mashed up The Dark Knight Rises trailers with B:TAS footage, fulfilling nerd fandom's desire to watch jocks get devoured in a football field sinkhole, but now with animation! Cartoon Bane remains unintelligible, but he's also about 10 feet tall and 500 pounds, so no one's going to tell him to fix his diction.


Co-working concept, Work.Life, which opens near King Street on Monday 19th November, has announced three events to inspire the city's upcoming start-ups and young entrepreneurs.
An Evening with Sacha Lord (Co-Founder, The Warehouse Project, Founder, ParkLife, and Night Time Economy Advisor to Greater Manchester) takes place on Thursday 29th November (6pm-7pm).
At the events, all three entrepreneurs will share their business tips and the stories behind their journeys to the top. Tickets, which are free and are close to selling out, can be booked through EventBrite.
Work.Life, situated on Brown Street, will be the city's hottest new workspace when it opens on Monday 19th, having worked with with five high-profile Manchester entrepreneurs for the launch of its new space.
Alongside Karina Jadhav, Nick Speakman and Sacha Lord, the workspace has also teamed up with Steven Bartlett (Founder and CEO, Social Chain) and Anthony Logan (Founder and CEO, Noir) who have all worked with Work.Life to create bespoke artwork for the space.
The Manchester space is the eighth venue for the award-winning company which has already had MTV and Dr. Marten's as members.
Housing 300 members, the 12,500 sq ft space will offer three levels of membership – Resident (private offices), Local (unlimited hot desking), and Flex (pay-as-you-go hot desking), and will be kitted out with a reception, kitchen, meeting rooms, private phone booths, calming cubicles for people to unwind and breakout areas for members to meet, socialise, collaborate and relax.
In addition to a packed events schedule including weekly yoga classes, beer & pizza nights, 'lunch & learns', and networking socials, Work.Life members will also benefit from bicycle storage, showers and a pet-friendly policy.
Tours are taking place now and can be booked via work.life/MCR.

Mob attacks Pastor and Church Members for Singing Christmas Carols
A pastor and group of church members were attacked by some unidentified mob on Saturday, December 13 for singing Christmas carols in the Indian City of Hyderabad. The mob accused that the pastor and 15 church members of trying to convert others to Christianity and violently attacked the group. In this regard, Pastor Bhim Nayak and four others were injured in the attack. The pastor remains in critical condition after being beaten unconscious and he was shifted to a private hospital for treatment.
John Dayal of the Indian Government's National Integration Council said that Hindu extremists are becoming increasingly influential in India, which threatens the safety of Christians. "There has been a sharp rise in hate campaigns against Christians by political organizations. This threat of purging Christians from villages extends from Chhattisgarh and Madhya Pradesh to now Uttar Pradesh, and to the borders of the national capital of New Delhi," Dayal said.
Police registered a complaint and investigation is going on. According to the police, the victim Nayak, a resident of Singareni colony in Saidabad and native of Nalgonda district, was going alone from his residence towards Vaishalinagar, Champapet by walk during the night. Police believe that attackers were non-locals who came to attend a function in the locality.
The carol team said when they were moving through Vaishalinagar at midnight around 15 people attacked and beaten them. After the assault, the gang left from the area. "We took the injured to a hospital and approached the police," said a member of the carol team.
