“.. Nuclear Power Revealed

So let me tell you what else they did. They just showed you what's wrong with nuclear power. "Safe to the maximum," they said. "Our devices are strong and cannot fail." But they did. They are no match for Gaia.

It seems that for more than 20 years, every single time we sit in the chair and speak of electric power, we tell you that hundreds of thousands of tons of push/pull energy on a regular schedule is available to you. It is moon-driven, forever. It can make all of the electricity for all of the cities on your planet, no matter how much you use. There's no environmental impact at all. Use the power of the tides, the oceans, the waves in clever ways. Use them in a bigger way than any designer has ever put together yet, to power your cities. The largest cities on your planet are on the coasts, and that's where the power source is. Hydro is the answer. It's not dangerous. You've ignored it because it seems harder to engineer and it's not in a controlled environment. Yet, you've chosen to build one of the most complex and dangerous steam engines on Earth - nuclear power.

We also have indicated that all you have to do is dig down deep enough and the planet will give you heat. It's right below the surface, not too far away all the time. You'll have a Gaia steam engine that way, too. There's no danger at all and you don't have to dig that far. All you have to do is heat fluid, and there are some fluids that boil far faster than water. So we say it again and again. Maybe this will show you what's wrong with what you've been doing, and this will turn the attitudes of your science to create something so beautiful and so powerful for your grandchildren. Why do you think you were given the moon? Now you know.

This benevolent Universe gave you an astral body that allows the waters in your ocean to push and pull and push on the most regular schedule of anything you know of. Yet there you sit enjoying just looking at it instead of using it. It could be enormous, free energy forever, ready to be converted when you design the methods of capturing it. It's time. …”

Shopping mall business is booming, plenty of room for more: Developers

Multa Fidrus, The Jakarta Post, Tangerang | Tue, 03/25/2008 11:20 AM

Mall developers say that despite the rapid construction of new shopping malls in Greater Jakarta in recent years, further expansion is viable enough that the number of malls here could double by 2011.

The chairman of the Jakarta-Banten chapter of the Indonesian Shopping Center Association (APPBI), Andreas Kartawinata, said the increasing population density and improving socioeconomic conditions were the main factors behind the opportunity.

He said close proximity of malls had nothing to do with the survival of each.

"The success of mall businesses will be decided by attractions presented by each mall," he said.

Andreas said the APPBI catered to 60 shopping malls in Greater Jakarta, a quarter of which were located in Tangerang.

PT Lippo Karawaci leads in the expansion of big shopping malls, building and managing more than 20, while PT Sinar Mas, with its ITC malls, comes in the second, he said.

Andreas predicted the number of shopping malls in Greater Jakarta would double by 2011.

He said to survive in the long-term, shopping malls in Tangerang should also cooperate, not only compete.

He cited the success of the Orchard Road shopping district in Singapore.

"Orchard Road consists of shopping centers stacked together, with no distance between them. All attract visitors and make a profit since they cooperate with each other," he said.

PT Lippo Karawaci spokesman Paulus Tambunan said the mall business was still lucrative, adding that most retail space at malls under his company's management were leased to tenants.

"It's easier to manage with a leasing system for the survival and the progress of the shopping mall," he said.

He said among Lippo's shopping malls using a leasing system were Plaza Semanggi, Mega Mall Pluit, Lippo Cikarang and Cibubur Junction, Pejaten Village, Ekalokasari Plaza, Kemang Village and Puri Village Malls in Greater Jakarta, and Bandung Indah Plaza and Istana Plaza in Bandung and Binjai Supermal in North Sumatra.

However, Paulus said some malls were still struggling to attract tenants.

"Spaces at other Lippo malls such as Belanofa Country Mall in Sentul, WTC Serpong and Metropolis Town Square in Tangerang, Depok Town Square in Depok, Medan Grand Paladium in North Sumatra, GTC Makassar in South Sulawesi and City Octomoro in Surabaya are for sale," he said.
