• The digital filter used in the PonoPlayer has minimal phase, and no unnatural (digital sounding) pre-ringing. All sounds made (including music) always have reflections and/or echoes after the initial sound. There is no sound in nature that has any echo or reflection before the sound, which is what conventional linear-phase digital filters do. This is one reason that digital sound has a reputation for sounding "unnatural" and harsh.

• All circuitry is zero-feedback. Feedback can only correct an error after it has occurred, which means that it can never correct for all errors. By using proprietary ultra-linear circuitry with wide bandwidth and low output impedance, there is no need for unnatural sounding feedback.

• The DAC (Digital-to-Analog Converter) chip being used is widely recognized in the audio and engineering community as one of the best sounding DAC chips available today.

• The output buffer used to drive the headphones is fully discrete so that all individual parameters and circuit values and parts quality can be fully optimized for the absolute finest sound quality. The output impedance is very low so that the PonoPlayer delivers perfectly flat frequency response and wide volume range using virtually any set of headphones.

its a good job that all the music on it has been nowhere near anything digital at any point in the recording, mixing or mastering process. studio engineers dont give a gently caress about 'pre ringing' or the warmth of the sound, theres no reason why people playing it back should.

In "Why Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 Vanished," alternative thinker and researcher Paris Tosen presents his theory on Flight 370. But rather than the usual "how did it happen," he spends most of his time looking at the larger picture. Why it happened. The context.

There is a larger picture here. There is a larger reason why Flight 370 vanished.

It started in 2013. And it involves the U.S. and Russia.

Read one of the most amazing theories of 2014!

Why the eBook so soon after the plane accident?

It is very easy to have a tragic event become an unsolved mystery. This is one reason why I wrote my eBook, Why Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 Vanished, on MH370.

The mystery of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 is becoming legend. The theories. The confusion. The delays. The sadness. The lack of evidence. The amazing conclusion. The rejection of the facts. The changing facts. The investigation that will take years. The list is endless.

This has all the markings of another long-term mystery, eg JFK, 9/11. And this event has the signature of design, and I think military involvement. It is essential that some people capture the truth while it was in the making: hence, my version of the truth. It doesn't matter if the truth is 100% accurate. How can it be? What matters is that an alternate version of truth is presented. And this is why I did it. I did not want to see another global mystery that they can hang over our heads.

This is my thinking based on my understanding of reality.

You have your own views. This was mine. But one thing that rang true here was the 'design'. And it's pretty impressive.

An eBook has more credibility than an online essay. I know. I have plenty of online essays. Plus, this essay was much longer than usual. If I had time I would've written a book.

How to tell if a magic spell has been placed on you

By PARIS TOSEN

January 6, 2014

Medicare image

Magical spells are used more often than you think and this is because there are secretive networks (covens, societies) of dark magicians, sorcerers, witches, and voodoo practitioners. These magicians are also, at times, hired by intelligence agents and cabal operatives; some are permanent staff and are quite powerful.

They may know that I am writing this essay and are not pleased because it inches closer to exposing their hidden hand. Spells lose their power the more you understand them. Look at 9/11, the more you understand it, the freer you are. But still, the fear is there in your gut because the spell is still there.

A curse is a spell placed on a person to impair them in some manner, for example, causing sickness, even cancer. A simpler example is to cause emotional outbursts or making someone have unfair demands at the most inappropriate time, like at your job or in a delicate relationship situation. The result is bad for the individual. These negative spells could be behind these life-changing events. Negative spells, curses, are often used to impair memory, to heighten paranoia or to raise fear, even to make someone fall in love with the wrong person.

Several years ago, I was at a coffee shop, this was during a point in my life where I was actively striking against the false knowledge with my own work online. Anyway, I was sitting there when I felt a stabbing pain in my foot, as if someone jammed a metal spike in my foot and I saw an image of a cherubim standing next to me stabbing something in my foot. But in the real world all was normal. Nothing out of place. No one saw nothing.

I had these kinds of attacks before so I did not yell out because it did hurt. Immediately following, I got the supernatural urge to fall in love with the very first woman who entered my space, a young and pretty girl. I am not talking falling in love with a pretty girl, but aching love for a soul mate, a twin flame, I had never seen and all of it followed this stab in my foot from the cherumbim.

I realized it was some kind of Cupid spell and I resisted it and then decoded it and found it that there was an attempt to force me to fall in love so as to detour me off my path, because my work was teaching people to see the world differently. And if the world saw the world properly then they might wake up. This is one of many examples.

There are some general ways to tell if a spell had been placed on you. Unfortunately, this is after the spell has broken or worn off. I was fortunate to have broken the Cupid spell before it took effect. But most of the time this isn’t the case. The lonely person falls in love and doesn’t see any issue with it. The relationship goes on for months or years, there are issues, there are babies, you can see how life can take a turn at the wrong time. What’s wrong with love, right? Well, it’s wrong if you were forced into it. Now, don’t get paranoid about your lovers. It’s too late anyway.

A person needs a very good understanding of themselves to prevent a magical attack because they’re usually quite subtle. A painful attack like the Cupid spell means that the spell is more powerful (and more desperate), and in most cases, the recipient will be at the mercy of the spell. Luckily, I do not fit most cases.

Please note that most magical attacks happen for a reason. If you are not magically gifted and you live a very normal life then the chance of you being cursed is very small and you might have psychological issues or health issues. If you are magically-gifted, and those who are know they are, then there is a high chance of being attacked whether they pray on your loneliness, poverty, traumatic injuries from childhood or whatever because they can exploit your worst nightmares, over and over again. Non-magicians who are actively spreading the truth or countering disinformation are also subject to these negative attacks.

Some indications, these are generalized for the sake of discussion.

you have a terribly negative or depressed mood/disposition even though you are a fairly positive person;
after a mental breakthrough you fell like “everything makes sense, again”;
you are not motivated to do the work you are supposed to do and are baffled at the reasons why;
you’re suddenly no longer afraid to do something (eg falling in love, falling out of love, getting a job, leaving a job, making money, dealing with a family issue);
you have ongoing issues of worry, guilt, and fear over things that aren’t controllable (eg weather, economy, terrorism); and
you have a breakthrough but you feel angry that you’ve wasted all those years with the wrong mindset. The breakthrough indicates the release of the magic and the anger is the resentment. Oftentimes, an angry person can be influenced again and again.

Again, only an experienced reality magician will be able to prevent an attack and they’ll prevent it because the cost of a curse can be quite high (eg lost time, lost opportunities, wrong lifestyles). In severe cases, a person may be periodically influenced until they are addicted to drugs and even are doing prostitution. Again, the goal of the dark spell is to impair the target or to ruin them, to take them off the path. Instead of becoming a marine biologist a person might be led to become an actor or a celebrity. This is another way to alter a person’s direction in life.

A person who conquers alcoholism might all of a sudden have a relapse. This could be due to a magical nudge. But life is never simple and it’s always good to take a larger examination of the individual. You cannot just blame magic if you cannot make sense of it. It needs investigation. Some people are naturally troubled and may ruin their own lives due to personal issues stemming from childhood.

From my experience, a magically-gifted person is known to other magicians who are almost certain to interfere with their lives.

The removal of a spell doesn’t erase the pain and suffering from the spell nor does it give you back your lost years, it only tells you that you could have been magically attacked. And if so, you should be more protective and aware of these subtle influences. You should also try to develop your defensive abilities. There may be more than one spell on you at any time.

A magical attack does not announce itself. In fact, the opposite is true and you only notice it because you notice that you never had these feelings before. If you all of sudden have homosexual needs, where none were present, that might be an indication. If you suddenly find yourself incredibly ill, with no explanation or cause, that might also be an indication. You get the idea.

Long term attacks can lead to serious life ruin, disease, and a troubled existence. It is also difficult to separate a magical attack from a delusion and you won’t get it right until you learn how things work. In the meantime, perhaps have a good therapist nearby. And therapists or wise friends can help break the illusion, sometimes. A friend can tell you that 9/11 was a sham, even show you the evidence, but you might not believe it. Magic is like this. It may or may not be true.
