CIA Leak Widens To Probe 'Broader Conspiracy' Around Iraq

Mr. Fitzgerald's pursuit now suggests he might be investigating not a narrow case on the leaking of the agent's name, but perhaps a broader conspiracy.... Lawyers familiar with the investigation believe that at least part of the outcome likely hangs on the inner workings of what has been dubbed the White House Iraq Group ... which included Messrs. Rove and Libby, that worked on setting strategy for selling the war in Iraq to the public in the months leading up to the March 2003 invasion.

//YOU Benefit Party REVIEWED

DEAR FRASER AND UP! READERS.......... CONGRATULATIONS on the return of the 'live'part of Parallel Youniversity at St. Georges Church on Oct 1.

It showed the Alternative Clubbing scene what it's been missing. Serious talks about Oil Supply (the amazing Shane Collins and Friends) and Magic Mushrooms (Anthony Goodman from The Entheogen Defence Fund), a Debate about Iraq hosted by Parallel YOU legend GoodJeff (Dimbleby of the Alternative Scene), which featured the first ever chanting from the Koran at a Rave club (by a member of Hiz-b-Tahir, the Radical Muslim group), amazing speeches read by WARP and RSC actor Oliver Senton from the legendary play, The WARP, an amazing New Age Sermon by the WARP's creator, the one and only Neil Oram, “the furthest out brain of britain” as Fraser calls him) expounding on everything from Ketamine to the Way Forward to the Meaning of Life, the Mother of all Spiritual Opening Ceremonies mc'd by //YOU’s own Channel to the Spirits, Raga, innovative Mixed Music and theatrics for all tastes by numerous performers, the best Trancey Rave sets since the New Human Be-In, and the most amazing Alternative Culture audience ever, full of Love and Magic
>> all TALKING to each other can u believe it??!!)

all welcomed by the Church's Circle Community's (hosting Parallel You on the nite) amazing own Goddess Suzanna Lafonde (if you don't learn something new from Suzanna within 5 minutes you need a brain transplant!), the Church's own superhero Pete Phoenix (what Pete has accomplished you need a whole issue of UP! to tell and we are all grateful)

and legendary //YOU founder Fraser Clark (has anyone ever done more in the Alternative Scene?... let me know if you find him/her) and his loyal superdog, Junntee....
>> jaunty, johnT.

and that's just for starters!. You had to be there, there was magic in the air. Everything was possible on the night. As if Parallel had never been gone (its last incarnation was the New Human Be-In in 2002). Rosie (Rofe), Queen of Clubs was missing (she recently passed on) but sent a message saying she wished they had clubs like ours 'up there'.
>> she promised me b4 she died that she’d be sure to get me on the gust list. “tell them i’ll soon liven the place UP!” i used to tell her as she lay, dying.

Her spirit was with us on the night tho. People were there from many ethnic groups and religions. Negative energy barred at the door by our own dose of Special K, Big Kirk Mitchell and his beautiful female companion. Everyone was welcomed personally as if they were coming back to their own home. Welcome Home Brother/Sister as the RainBow Family say! And that's how it felt.... like a true Home. Other clubs may be glossier or bigger but no club feels more like home than Parallel You. Or like the Youniversity you always dreamt of attending (for those of us who are academically inclined)
>> everyone is, but only when it’s wrapped up as edutainment :)

Venezuela's President, Hugo Chavez sent his personal representative, Charlie Allen, as an expression of solidarity. The Treasury Department, always on the case, sent their top lawyer, Sappho Morgan. Sony Corporation, always trying to keep up with the latest trends, sent its top inventor, Nathan Benthall . Vietnam Vets had their own officer monitoring the proceedings! Brian Barritt, Tim Leary's earthly extension channelled the latest thoughts of Tim (who 'tuned in' and 'turned' on’ with us in spirit) plus some of his own. Wild! John Constable (Goose, Crow) the Alternative Scene's closest thing to Rimbaud (or is it Artaud?) was weaving his way thru the scenes emanating his unique style of brilliance. James Hamilton, the alt British Alternative’s answer to Neil Cassidy was open to dialogue with anyone and everyone. Don Pecker strummed and sang like his life was staked on it.. and our scene's answer to Beethoven, Georgina, was playing her uniquely Divine compositions on her new beatbox. ya had to hear them to believe it!... even the woman who ran the cloak room was a seer, expounding her well earned wisdom to me. I learnt more in the Parallel cloakroom than in any club!... past Parallel staff stalwarts Eddie and Dave were there both swearing it was better than ever. The Yoga fraternity sent its well known phenomenal teacher, Yogi G. (Gina Feitelson) ..... Plus there was soothing massage which Shane Collins raved about... and a wonderful teepee mini-city.... plus if you were good, The Yellow Submarine manned by James the Just below the surface.

Zak, our young 'manager', could only marvel at the Magic while running around with a big smile on his face.. he'd dreamt of being part of a live Parallel club and now it had surpassed his wildest dreams... ditto for Paul Rogue our technology wizard who ran the technology better than Bill Gates... and finally RainBow Lizzie our Muse now that Rosie is gone, selling (giving away?) her beautiful natural cakes radiating the most loving vibe ever (no apologies for hippy adjectives).....The Dogs were having a great time too (Parallel is a pro-Dog club!) and one whispered to me, why can't all human clubs be like this? No shit!
>> eh, careful with the language :) he was only making a small donation to the //YOU benefit fund.

Parallel Youniversity has tried over the last 12 years to push the alt scene towards providing a 'club' where people truly 'communicate' and where real 'dialogue' happens. From the barrier breaking MEGATRIPOLIS, to the legendary 24 HOUR WARP EXPERIENCE,it has led the way in defining what an alternative (or mainstream for that matter) club can be. The //YOU wasn't just a clever gimmick that you can easily copy except the dancefloor and some nice wall hangings.. Every person thru the Door became the club's creator on the night. Rather than 'dictate' to ravers and clubbers they 'dictated' to us with their own imagination. Parallel YOU lets the clubbers create Magic and then channels it to create something quite transforming.

'Edutainment' is what we have called it but really it is way beyond that. It is about EVERYONE coming together on the night and birthing a New Culture and a New World. Everyone working on the night to move the scene forward. The Play is the Process is the Thing. And //YOU still does it best. WELCOME BACK.

GM Crop 'Ruins Fields For 15 Years'

By Geoffrey Lean // Environment Editor//The Independent - UK

GM crops contaminate the countryside for up to 15 years after they’ve been harvested, startling new government research shows.

The findings cast a cloud over the prospects of growing the modified crops in Britain, suggesting that farmers who try them out for one season will find fields blighted for a decade and a half.

Financed by GM companies and Margaret Beckett's Department of the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, the report effectively torpedoes the Government's strategy for introducing GM oilseed rape to this country.

Ministers have stipulated that the crops should not be grown until rules are worked out to enable them to "co-exist " with conventional ones. But the research shows that this is effectively impossible.

The study, published by the Royal Society, examined 5 sites across England and Scotland where modified oilseed rape has been cultivated, and found significant amounts of GM plants growing even after the sites had been returned to ordinary crops. It concludes that the research reveals "a potentially serious problem associated with the temporal persistence of rape seeds in soil."

The researchers found that 9 years after a single modified crop, an average of two GM rape plants would grow in every square metre of an affected field. After 15 years, this came down to one plant per square metre - still enough to break the EC limits on permissible GM contamination.

Last night Pete Riley, the director of GM Freeze, said; "It is becoming clearer and clearer that it is going to be impossible to grow GM crops in Britain."
up!

Dearest Fraser Baba,
Have you read what the Synergy web site says about you?! It’s called The History of Synergy and it is embarrassingly self-serving and absolutely disgusting, and I’ve written to them to tell them so. I RECKON YOU SHOULD SUE!

“Liquid Spiral was itself in many ways an underground incarnation of the legendary Warp Experience parties held at the Drome in 1999 and 2000, which had set a new creative standard with the addition of a 24 hour play and a diverse fringe of stalls, art installations, live music and poetry to the standard trance room and chill-out.”

“In many ways”?! In every fuckin’ way! and every single person who experienced both is agreed on this. but minus all the great stuff like edutainment, proper theatre, nude hot tubs, quiet room to converse!, a serious fun-loving Art Gallery, and oodles and oodles of idealism and radical politics. And NONE of it could ever have happened without you, Baba, standing in the Cyclone’s Centre and giving the Trust that was necessary to allow it to build through its early difficult financial weeks. NOBODY but YOU in those days could have thought that anyone else or any group of individual egos could have been entrusted by all the fine soul participants to hold it all together in Selfless Love.

“The Warp was however plagued by considerable concern at the inability of the main organiser to share power and control, such that many of those responsible for the beauty of the artistic production ended up seeing little of the substantial profits that were generated in the latter days of the project, when in excess of 2,500 people attended the monthly events.”
>> fortnightly actually, something Synergy has still not achieved in 5 years! AND 24 hours!

Mate, I have watched (and participated in) the elements of your career for 20 years now. You first changed my life when I was a teenager and read your Encyclopaedia Psychedelica in the mid 80s (while thewe Synergy guys were in school!) It was Volume 8, Magic Politics, that did the damage :) I visited several of your evolution^ events in the late ‘80s, including the McKenna Playshops and the Shamanarchy In The UK album launch party at Whirlygig. This was at the time the Shamen were doing their Synergy Tour so not even that is original! And I was un unmissable regular at all the unbelievably wonderful and inspiring Megatripolis clubs until your business partners (who also spoke the language of “key areas of effective project management” see below) They were a million years ahead of anything else happening in the UK (psychologically, sociologically, psychedelically and spiritually) and still hundreds of years ahead of what Synergy is even attempting today!

And I’ve seen you being ripped off and run down constantly by people like this who simply didn’t understand the level you were working on. You explained in the EPi that you’d been a pure Hippy for 20 years before you became a Zippy and ‘rejoined overground society to change it’. God knows the money was NEVER high in your priorities (except as a means which, as the zippy you proclaimed yourself was brave enough to openly say, was required to get anything done on the material level). Bugsy, your capitalist rip-off pig partner in MegaT, once told me you’d stolen £40,000 and ran off to America with the Zippies. But I’ve long since learned from a zippy himself and many others that you guys had no bread on that amazing tour, and now everyone knows that these were lies that your business pirate partners spread to hide their own crimes. Such shit will follow you to your grave, Fraser, the bastards! It happened at the Warp Experience too when the venue owner Adam (right name?) tried to steal your whole show from beneath you. Mainly, again, by spreading coke-inspired lies about you. I even heard he withdrew £3000 from the common kitty in order to get you arrested, and only your security guy Jimmy discovered the plot. Is that true?
>> it’s true. i handed the kitty to Jimmy and the head guy of Adam’s security team. when Adam realised that THEY’d been holding the money and not me he quickly ‘fessed up, claiming it had fallen under his desk. u r right about the self-serving lies and lies… !!

So when I read the next part of the Synergy blurb, I get really angry! And so does anyone who even SLIGHTLY understands you!

“Many of the Warp crew concluded that only a more collectivist approach to management and administration would provide a solution to the inevitably corrupting influence of so much power and control vested in the hands of one unaccountable individual.”

How can you bear to listen to the self-serving arrogance of such moral pigmies who have no idea of your whole life dedicated to helping the planet?! “Inevitably corrupting” indeed! They can only speak from their own selfish level! He’s saying HE is going to be corrupted or already is!
>> am sure someone accused jeezuz of never paying for the wood his cross was made from :) it is true that these middle class, born to rule characters are always showing up claiming to be pure, and the very latest, but who then disappear completely after ripping me off :) i remember when i finally had to jump the Warp Experience out of the Drome before Adam grabbed everything (he’d already made side deals with some of the theatre company etc, despite the signed contracts I’d finally learned are necessary) and suddenly Brian the Guru is very publicly demanding (on the warpexperience web site which he’d more or less stolen from us) that Adam and me get together to “share and all that”. Adam was a crook for chrissake! how come I, with a lifetime dedicated to saving the planet, was suddenly put on the same moral level as a coke head music biz victim who pretty much disappeared again when his moment in the limelight was over. ditto with Bugsy from Megatripolis anybody ever see either of them again?! and now, yes, here it is happening once more.

i mean, all anyone knows about Steve who seems, despite fine sounding phrases, to be the Main Man behind Synergy (only Business and NOT creative), is that he’s middle class, he studied business management and appeared through the Charity Business scene (where everyone is paid for their work). maybe we’ll be able to form an opinion of him in, say, 20 years, when he has some ‘form’, but all the signs are that he’s arrogant enough to think that nobody ever did anything right before him (let alone a hundred times better!)

I don’t know how you manage to come back time and again, swallow your share of scurrilous shit, and never really make a penny?! Except that, since that’s never been your main concern, it must matter less to you.
>> that’s right. but it’s the stupid, mean, ignorant accusations from the ‘moral pigmies’ i’ve had to work with that’s been hardest to bear. i took an Honours degree in Psychology and gave up a very lucrative career to concentrate on changing Society from the bottom up (hippies then ravers) and ended up working among mafioso, gangsters, drug addled social rejects and retards (and loadsa fabulous people too of course) and not to mention some of those middle class Warp actors who were like scared tourists in Tangiers expecting everyone to pick their pockets. and then THEY say I have my hand in the till oh PLEEEASE!!!

“An almost identical set-up had also characterised Megatripolis, another pioneering conscious club project founded and run by the same individual behind the Warp. The tendency of key people not to be conscious of the importance of keys areas of effective project management, specifically group-dynamics and transparency and accountability in financial management, emphasised the need for future projects to be led by people willing to pay more attention to the process and structure of the project as well as just the goals.”
>> he has a truth there too. i was never much innerested in the admin, but their longer term planning is a useful and necessary evolution. yet the truth is that everyone i ever let in to handle that ended up trying to take the thing over!

with the W.E (a meaning most people missed:) we were actually MUCH more transparent - at all our business meetings any profit cleared was always fiercely argued over by dominic and greg and paul, and the arguments were about who should get a bit extra, NOT about anything else. (ask any of them if what i'm saying is true).

Synergy, let’s face it, has lacked synergy in that it’s never created anything larger than the elements within it, simply sticking with a stripped-down copy of what had been created in the same venue and with many of the old crowd.
>> u r right in the sense that it has never achieved what any truly revolutionary club must produce, the sense that "i cannot afford to miss this one!". with Synergy you can always say: "well, if i miss this one i can always catch the next." you could NEVER say this about the Warp Experience or Megatripolis.

the inner hexagram of what's said in this Synergy statement is that, lacking a central Vision, it has so far failed to rise above a generalised collection of individual craftspeople egos (and a heavy, largely hidden business structure behind it).

SUE THE BASTARDS, BABA!
am more than happy to let the history books prestablish the truth from the muddied waters of raveland.
and i'll stand next to steve at the pearly gates any time without a single qualm :) indeed, i have £100 here which says there is really NO WAY to see Synergy’s ‘transparent’ accounts, despite the fine words. why not send them into the UP! and prove me wrong, guys?!

and i agree that they should edit their statement to the undisputed FACTS. they really know nothing about what really happened.

Free Bob Dylan Lyrics Ebook

Humble apologies to all those who clicked on the link to the free Bob Dylan lyrics ebook in the last issue of the UP! A problem cropped up with my ISP regarding the 'permissions' for files on the site, something to do with cgi that I know nothing about, and their tekkies, speaking a different language to normal people, couldn't or wouldn't explain what I needed to do to make the site load.
So I've abandoned the cgi platform and am back to plain old HTML, and still they haven't fixed it properly and the normal site isn't accessible to upload files. I'm finding broadband providers much cheaper than forcebloodynine anyway, and I feel they are just taking the piss - bastards. I'm now looking for another ISP which doesn't treat its customers with disdain.
You can find the ebook at
