No, I’m not talking about A.I.G. or Wall Street bailouts – those Black Holes are quite real… I’m talking about the giant objects in space, whose gravity is so strong, “nothing, not even light can escape.”
Rocky Mountain Academy, or “RMA,” was the Cedu program in Idaho. RMA was Cedu’s first ’sister school,’ or clone, and was built by staff and students from the California program.
In this clip, RMA students and staff share memories and come up with mixed feelings.
When I was a boy, I was told that the Sun was a big, giant, enormous bomb going off in the sky… a chronic nuclear explosion hanging in space…
Ka-BOOM! But, sort of forever, or almost…

Here’s a question you don’t get asked every day:
Did the Big Bang happen? You know, the “Big Bang.”
No, no, I don’t mean the first time you had a decent sexual encounter.
I mean, “First there was silence on the face of the deep, and then “BOOM! WHAM! Ka-BANG! SHAZAAM!”
That “Big Bang.”

Liam Scheff Interview on Fintan Dunne’s AIDS is Over.com
In August of 2008, I gave an interview to Fintan Dunne of Breakfornews.com and AIDSisover.com. We discussed the religious/cult dynamic of the AIDS industry and the catch-22 in which those who uncritically accept the paradigm find themselves. We went over the events of the Incarnation Children’s Center, briefly, before turning to recent admission by the World Health Organization that AIDS is, once again, predicted to be specifically confined to the African and Gay populations. The following is an edited transcript of that conversation.

Students and staff talk about two of the most “powerful” staff at Cedu…
Is it possible to escape the bonds of mountaintop reform school? Students tried, and tried, and tried again…
The Cedu Documentary project is having the intended consequence of starting a conversation about abuses of teens in Cedu-type ‘therapeutic’ reform/re-education boarding schools; from the Oregonian newspaper, reporting on an investigation into the practices Cedu survivors know all too well:
Former students have posted on MySpace and Facebook numerous complaints about the school, ranging from what they characterized as humiliating group therapy sessions to sleep deprivation. Judson DeVries, who left the school in 2007, told The Oregonian he was forced into “very embarrassing” role-playing games.
“Humiliation. Food deprivation. Overwork. Taking away school credits as part of the punishment. Dressing up in French maid costumes and doing lap dances as part of a therapeutic session. It goes on and on,” she said.

There are at least 200 dead children lying in the wake of the high-dose drug studies done by Columbia Presbyterian on orphans in NYC. The perpetrators won’t release a single medical record, not even to participants.
Children weren’t paid, families weren’t paid, weren’t asked.
The children and infants used in major drug trials were often orphans.
This week’s Village Voice doesn’t trouble the reader with this information in a meaningful way. They excuse it. Read the rest of this entry »
To the Editor, Writers, Village Voice,
While your article on the ICC scandal is too riddled with error to fix line by line, there is one demonstrably false statement that you must retract and amend.
Quoting the New York Times 2005 article, which attempted to cover up the ICC scandal, you claimed that the information I provided was done through un-named sources and un-documented research. You then acknowledged that you were interviewing my sources, using the leads that I provided you. Therefore I think you owe your audience some clarification.

House of Numbers, a 2009 Documentary by Brent Leung (IMDB) takes on the most controversial human rights and human health issue of the last fifty years. Asking the un-askable, questioning the un-questionable, Mr. Leung uncovers the mass of information about HIV testing and the AIDS diagnosis that is daily suppressed by government and media, and hidden from public view.

This is (maybe!) the final in a long line of letters for an interview process by Village Voice reporter, Elizabeth Dwoskin, who says we can read her story today.
Hi Liam:
I am going to press tomorrow. You have asked me to submit correspondence in writing. I’d like to know, looking back, how you feel your work has been considered by the public and by the press. Has it had the effect you hoped it would have?
Thank you.
Elizabeth Dwoskin

The following essay was originally a letter in a series for a long interview process for the Village Voice. Find the earlier exchanges and context [Here].
Denialism: The inability to ask questions; the suppression of investigation; an attack and silencing of critical thinking.
This letter refers to many things, but most of all the drugging of orphans in New York City in government clinical trials. Read that story [Here].

I was contacted in January, 2009, by a young reporter for the Village Voice called Elizabeth Dwoskin, who asked me to help her investigate the ICC story, and provide sources for her investigation. She told me her interest was in helping the children affected by the drug studies. I offered help by email and telephone, by providing material and sources for her work.
At present, Columbia Presbyterian is holding patients’ medical records hostage. They will not release medical records, neither to any investigating body, nor to the young adults who were put through medical experiments under the auspices of Columbia/Presbyterian and the National Institutes of Health.
These children can’t get their own medical records. The question I hope you will be asking throughout is:
According to the VERA Institute report, twenty-five children died in the drug studies, an additional fifty-five children died following the studies (in foster care), and, according to Tim Ross, Director of the Child Welfare program at VERA, 29% of the remaining 417 children who were used in drug studies are now dead (out of a total 532 children that are admitted to have been used.
