Very short column today. In the last 24 hours, A.I. and I have been working on a crossover project – part book, part biomedical research – which we will get to in a minute. First things first.
What goes up…going to pull back at the open…at least before the CPI…
CPI
OK, now we get to open the CPI Envelope…
” The Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) decreased 0.1 percent on a seasonally adjusted basis in March, after rising 0.2 percent in February, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Over the last 12 months, the all items index increased 2.4 percent before seasonal adjustment.
The index for energy fell 2.4 percent in March, as a 6.3-percent decline in the index for gasoline more than offset increases in the indexes for electricity and natural gas. The food index, in contrast, rose 0.4 percent in March as the food at home index increased 0.5 percent and the food away from home index rose 0.4 percent over the month.
Now, in addition to the CPI, we have to put on our “skeptical spectacles” because the Fed tends to look at the All Items Less Food and Energy. Because this (at least in theory) is where they need to manage things. Year on year? +2.8 percent. A rate decrease might be back on the table… pass the gasoline for markets?
U.I. Filings
Still waiting for that much over-hyped wave of job layoffs to go filing for benefits…
Wait! What about all the layoffs…the rate went down on a not seasonally fibbed basis,,,what gives? Gee, I dunno – kicking out some illegal aliens, maybe? DOGE scrutiny? Ya’ll tell me…
And as for state level impacts?
I swear the end of the world was supposed to be here, by now…
Roasted Trump
Those lefties…the gang that couldn’t govern straight? Schiff Wants Tariff-Pause Investigation Over Insider Trading | TIME.
The good news for Trump from all this? EU pauses tariff retaliation for 90 days to match Trump move, holding out hope for talks.
On the other hand? Look for a BRICS-Bash if we’re reading this right: China reaches out to other nations as Trump layers on tariffs.
I don’t know about you, but this whole past couple of weeks has been a shit-show. Our M3 (widest measure of Ure family economic power) has been up and down a new car almost every day. – which when you remember we’re not in stocks at the moment is pretty interesting…

Melting Pot Issues: National Weather Service Ends Translations, Non-English Speakers Left Without Emergency Alerts. Oh well…melt. But, how many languages? Last time I looked at Canadian government sites, it appeared they were no longer a country. Just an encampment of global tribes each claiming to be more “special” than they other. Silly – and a real shortage of conservative (able to do the books) voters. Isn’t there like a tax lien we could buy off the Crown, or something?
Around the Ranch: 12 – and then some
OK, you know I’m wrapped up in biomedical research now, right? South Florida fog, odd rouleaux formations in lots of people and off into light and dark field microscopy and more.
While on this path – including that 36 page paper recently on Peoplenomics with me and a doc which went into Charged Body/Blood Theory, I have been working on in vivo measurement systems beyond simply blood zeta potential. (That’s the force that lets RBC’s (red blood cells) repel one another.)
While working on the integrative medical part of CBT (charged body theory) with Bloodborne memory and how THAT all fits with key, it struck me that religious traditions all over the world seem to be screaming that there’s something to the number 12 going on. Encoding how to rock the enlightenment channel.
From the research, a few snips on the 12’s:
Even if one is a skeptic of organized religions, it is impossible to overlook the astonishing consistency with which the number twelve appears across disparate, non-connected cultures. Nowhere is this more apparent than in the Zodiacal systems — which span continents and millennia. From the Babylonian zodiac that later influenced Greek and Western systems, to the Chinese zodiac with its twelve animal branches, to the Mayan ceremonial calendar, and even to lesser-known traditions in Africa and Polynesia, we find consistent structures of twelvefold celestial archetypes guiding personality, fate, and time.
What’s especially compelling is that these are not simply copies or derivations — they appear independently, shaped by skywatchers and sages tracking the rhythms of the stars and their effects on human life. Twelve, it seems, is not imposed from theology, but emerges from nature itself. This celestial recurrence forces the question: was twelve chosen because of spiritual revelation — or because it reflected a deeply encoded logic of human interaction with time, space, and energy?
This global recurrence across faiths, mythologies, and even early sciences implies that the twelvefold code is not a superstition, but a shared epistemological foundation — one that deserves to be mapped, decoded, and potentially reintegrated into our technological and medical toolkit.
What’s cool – when you go looking,m you find:
- The 12 Tribes of Israel
- Each tribe associated with a region, character trait, and gemstone.
- Encoded into the high priest’s breastplate, possibly mapping to organs or meridians.
- The 12 Apostles (Christianity)
- Archetypal disciples, each representing a form of service, doubt, insight, or fidelity.
- May correlate with inner psychological states or neurotransmitter archetypes.
- The 12 Imams (Shi’a Islam)
- Seen as divinely appointed leaders, guides to moral and mystical understanding.
- Their stories form a template for just action and suffering in pursuit of divine order.
- The 12 Olympian Gods (Greek)
- Projective personalities, each governing an aspect of mortal or divine experience.
- Could map onto hormonal, behavioral, or psycho-energetic typologies.
- The 12 Æsir (Norse)
- Warriors and craftsmen of myth — gods of resolve, fate, and balance.
- Often mirrored the structure of governance and law among ancient Germanic peoples.
- The 12 Signs of the Western Zodiac
- Astrological archetypes aligned with personality, fate, and cosmic timing.
- Have parallels with organs, temperaments, and even stages of brain development.
- The 12 Earthly Branches (Chinese Zodiac)
- Cyclical markers aligned to years, body organs, and qi flow.
- Tied into agricultural rhythms and deeply embedded in Chinese medicine.
- The 12 Classical Meridians (TCM)
- Energetic rivers within the body, each linked to an organ and time of day.
- The foundation of acupuncture, qi gong, and energetic medicine.
- The 12 Breastplate Gemstones
- Physically worn by the Hebrew high priest, each stone had a tribe and frequency.
- May function as spectral filters for tuning subtle fields.
- The 12 Hours of Day/Night (Egyptian & Greek divisions)
- Tied to heliocentric and circadian regulation.
- Each hour a phase of mental/emotional capacity in some ancient thought systems.
- The 12 Months of the Year
- Agricultural cycles and celestial movements interwoven into planning and prophecy.
- Ritual systems built to match the shift of energies month-to-month.
- The 12 Faces of the Dodecahedron
- A Platonic solid associated with the ether element.
- Suggested by Plato and later mystics to represent the structure of the universe itself.
Now, to me – from a research standpoint – and using some of the same logical tooling I’ve used in other areas of interest (like Economics) this whole “12-thing” really has my attention.
So if you get a short column, now and then, somewhere between the briefs and papers and microscopy there’s some just really interesting shit going on…
Now, pencil out factorials 12 (12!) and run simulations over 6-waveforms…welcome to my lab. Got G2 coming up to speed on AI, too. Whee!
Write when I get rich (or check in an hour, a new Lexus will surely come or go literally in that time span lately…)

The original aliens supposedly had 12 fingers so they used 12 as the basis for their math and astrology/ astronomy. Their leader divided the early humans into 12 groups.
Interesting topic George. Thanks
Eleanor
“Their leader divided the early humans into 12 groups.”
Would you happen to know what those 12 groups were ? The names of those groups?
They were named after their leaders/owners/overseers or by the land area they occupied. Jews were nomads and therefor had no land. Their owner told them where to go and to kill all who lived there. When the Jewish people later multiplied they were divided into 12 groups.
I have also read 33 groups and a hundred and something groups. The Iggi were low status aliens and weren’t given any people to work for them. The leaders and those with power (military males and a few females) were given people to raise animals/crops and build cities for them.
George,
11/28/28 15-minute unit :: x/2.5x/2.5x short squeeze…
The US debt market like the composite equity market undergoes a self-assembly time-based fractal growth and decay valuation process. The next weekly nadir for the April 2023 TNX is 22/55/31 of 33 weeks :: x/2.5x/1.5x, which coincides with a composite equity crash low.
The SPX is undergoing a self-assembly process for its last 13 day 4th fractal in the 3 Feb 2025 terminal growth and incipient fractal crash decay series of 8/19/20/13 days :: x/2-2.5x/2.5x/1.6x. On a 15-minute fractal time basis, the 7 April 2025 3rd fractal 20 day low begins its 13 day 4th fractal with a 3/6/7 15-minute unit :: x/2x/2-2.5x fractal growth series, followed by a 11/28/28 15-minute unit :: x/2.5x/2.5x maximal fractal growth series ending at the close on 9 April 2025 and fractally similar to the 27 Oct 2023 55/139/138 day :: x/2.5x/2.5x lower high maximum fractal growth series and the 1807 36/90/90 year :: x/2.5x/2.5x (composite Wilshire) high on 8 November 2021. The Asset-Debt Macroeconomic System is deterministic in its time-based fractal self-assembly of its composite asset valuation growth and its composite asset valuation decay and is undergoing a 1982 13/32 of 33 year :: x/2.5x 32 of 33 year second fractal nonlinear collapse similar to the 1807 36/90 year :: x/2.5x 87 of 90 year second fractal collapse peaking on 3 Sept 1929 and nadiring on 8 July 1932.
Ai?
It’s Ure’s latest toy. And it does impress me.
However, you think its not biased? Or has narrow outlooks?
How about human overpopulation?
Your queries about world problems never mentions too many people; never considers limiting populations.
AI appears to be a card carrying member of the unlimited growth Ponzi Scheme.
Ask those Powers what a sustainable population level is for the world and for the U.S. Ask why confronting it is never a solution to problems.
AI is sugar.

Hmmmm
Like 1200 disloyal ChiCom Cake Eaters ? To go along with a 100 disloyal ChiCom Generals ? My goodness are things getting squirrely in the red army – its nucking futz!
Did some one say NUCKING FUTZ ? BCN brokerage account doubling in value while said homegamer was out hiking wit the Russels yesterday – nutz, Yahoo pricing info delayed by several minutes and not jiving with brokerage account info upon return to home ofc. – Nucking Futz.
Worse ? Better than slaughter of the elves, at least percentage wise, but still under 6 figure tax bite 4 next year, so still plenty of time to hide that sausage as I am mindful of wash sale rule violations.
Credit is fuckT with a capital T ! Commercial RE bonds – toast, HY corps – getting toasty, and UST’s looks very squirrely, too bad that as looks like BCN done found “da Nut” and am still blind.
Markets move – BCN bee happy cause I really like to Move It!

re: a shilling for your thoughts
Folks,
Those observing a Duodecimal Reality are perhaps familiar with the DSA (Dozenal Society of America). Its “Duodenal Bulletin” claims to have been in service since the year 1161 (decimal 1945). Back issues between 1161 and 11E4 are available on its website.
Meanwhile a duo of representatives from the 12 Tribes of Israel met with the CIA Director yesterday in Jerusalem. The trio posed for a photo-op in front of a map of interest. Here is a “Times of Israel” link containing the image:
https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/netanyahu-hosts-cia-director-for-talks-in-jerusalem/
the Jewish clan only represnts 2-1/2 tribes of Gods Nation Israel
where are the rest? as God has made promises to the 12 tribes.
they where not refered to as Jews till after the return from 2nd captivity and that was just Judah, Benjamin, and part of Levi,,, and maybe that is when the Talmud was injected in place of the Torah, as they brought the babalonian infuence in.
but you are more likely to be more versed in history than I.
just my thoughts
the other brother Darrell,
As the late jewish comedian Rodney Dangerfield might have said, “I got nuthin’…”. You are definitely 9 and a half steps ahead of me on that line of inquiry.

George – sorry, no tax lien available to the DisUnited States led by the demented Cheeto President who the “Conservative” (?) voters decided represents their values (not that the alternative was any better for different reasons).
As a conservative voter in Canada you seem quick to offer uninformed opinions.
Looking at the contributions to the US national debt of the last 4 presidential terms it begs the question how well “Conservatives” in power during the Cheeto’s last term managed the books (even considering the 2020-2022 pandemic spend):
Biden = 6.17T; Trump = 8.18T; Obama = 8.43T (2 terms).
Speaking of math and economic acumen: how about the Cheeto’s explanation tariff formula and how tariffs work? Silly doesn’t even come close to describing it. It’s mind boggling that there are people, including elected representatives, dumb enough to swallow that narrative, or are they simply fearful sheep?
I wonder what the Cheeto’s timeline is for building the industrial plant to replace the capacity he wants to displace from China and whether US demographics align? And what happens in the meantime?
Good luck with the Cheeto Clown Shit Show.
how many Trump insiders, or other WallStreet insiders made generational fortunes yesterday on the tariff “pause” news? ………… remember the days with major market moving news would be after 4pm EST (market close)? How obvious can it be that it’s as rigged as it gets? And yes, its always been rigged, but wow … unreal …………… oh hummm …. back to everyday life .. be safe all
Gold just hit a record high – looks to me like it is forming a blow-off top.
.
Apple just flew-in 600 tons of iPhones from India to skirt the tariffs.
.
Lots of talking-heads, you know – those who know everything and you should only listen to them – are all saying that yesterdays market mania was a ‘rally’. No.., it wasn’t. Not even close to a market rally.
.
Trump just announced that the China-Tariffs are now 145%. Market once again reacts in a panic – as they tell their clients not to panic. Sell-off continues.
.
North Korean troops cross the DMZ into South Korea – get fired upon and head back to their side. The ‘North’ was testing – what?
.
.., and you have a great day !
I read that China put about 300% tariffs on all goods coming to the US and that Trumps tariffs just even us out a bit. Not sure how true that is.
Gold is either blow-off or pricing in the next big bailout.
I would love to see it crash and would back-up the truck…. only to have a relative steal it all late in my life or an underground utility installation unknowingly dig it up and carry it away. LOL
Apple just flew-in 600 tons of iPhones from India to skirt the tariffs.
Apple’s raw manufacturing cost is about $10 per device. I don’t see Apple going broke because they suddenly have to pay ~$25 to get their iPhones into the U.S.
12 days of Christmas people LMAO How did you miss that one?
I wasn’t presents?
Wasn’t 12 o’clock yet.
Yesterday’s short lived bear market rally seems to have run out of steam.
Hint- the sell-offs started before the big tariffs were announced, and is continuing after it was paused; therefore, the simplest explanation is that tariffs are a sideshow, not the main attractor.
So, which financial sector will feel the wrath of credit deflation next? And which institutions are already snakebit? And when will the MSM tire of Trump-thumping cover stories?
12 months in a year is based on the cycles of the moon.
The Corruptokrats are all of sudden concerned about insider trading, thats fking hilarious.
I truly hope they investigate all political urchins and how their millions were made, will be bigger than any sacred file that the sheep are waiting on.
Let’s hope someone frees that jenie from the bottle that until now has been impossible to open.
Don’t hold your breath because you will never live to see the day.

re: Dei Consentes (Council of 12)
feat: King Charles III in Rome
Folks,
Royal watchers might well have wistful memories of the Family touring about town in one of their Series 3 Double Six (V12) Bentley limousines. This week the climate conscious Monarch has been sighted in Rome aboard his more environmentally friendly £10 million 2002 bio-fueled 6.75 litre V8 Rolls Royce-Bentley.
The King and Queen received a red carpet welcome by the Italian PM at Villa Doria Pamphili. The edifice rose to prominence in the 17th century when its powerful families reigned via multiple papacies. Speaking of the Pope, His Holiness offered happy 20th anniversary wishes to the visiting couple during their private audience with him.
The “BBC” noted that the Italian President had invited the Royal Couple to a state dinner at his palace atop Rome’s highest hill, Quirinal. Quirinal was a Roman god whose name may mean “wielder of the spear”. The UK public broadcaster also kindly detailed a dinner menu of the evening as follows: “bottoni pasta with aubergine caponata, salt encrusted sea bass, fried artichokes and roast potatoes finished by a fior di latte ice cream cake with raspberries”.
Mythology claims there were originally 12 knights at Arthur’s round table, which inflated to 1500. Nothing new going on in the colonies.
