When I was in Argentina last week I was in line at passport control and they were showing a video on the new digital DNI (national id card that all Argentineans must have) being changed to a digital record of your fingerprints and face scan. They were selling it as a way to prevent terrorists and to be convenient, which perhaps it is. It also gives the government much greater ways to track and control people. "Hermano Grande" (Big Brother) would be proud! (Edit: I have since found this article on the topic)

For example street CC video cameras (of which for example there are 4 million in London - I don't know how many in Buena Aires) can be tied to the face scan to know where you are at all times. People in protests against the government can be identified without arrest and penalized immediately without trial. Entering buildings that require scanning will track were you go too. And if you are "naughty" then forget about being able to enter those buildings which might include not just government services but bank ATM, gas stations and supermarkets. If food rationing occurs in a crisis then you can only get government food if you are "good".

What a great way to control a populations. Now to be clear it is only the digital DNI that I am aware of right now but there is so much opportunity for abuse with this kind of system that I would be concerned if I lived in Argentina or any other county that does this.

PS The US already face scans and fingerprints all foreigners who enter the US - currently over 70 million records are held by the DHS. So don't think that this won't come here. It already is and I predicat that the next big terrorist incident will make this system be extended to US citizens.

Here are some natural cures that have worked for me to cure back ache

• gentle swimming - the water supports the back and you can move gently in many different directions to release tension
• long walks have helped me in the past
• relaxation yoga (where you lie on piles of blanklets for 5-10 minutes in one pose and breath deeply). I know Thrive yoga in Rockville used to have a class Friday evening of this format. Might be called candle light yoga or some other name
• a massage or shiatsu can help
• acupuncture
• going into a trance or shamanic state and then moving to a crystal house and inviting your back pain to come into the house with you. Then telling it that you love it, thank it for coming and asking if it has any messages for you. Often once the message has been heard the pain goes away.
• related to this is Sedona method where you connect with the pain and allow it to be and allow any judgments or resistance you have just to be. Seeing if you can dive into the pain or double how intense it is ironically can often allow it to dissolve
• If you are into totums you might ask for a power animal to help with the issue and give you information on it.
• EFT is good with releasing pain
• On a spiritual level lower back issue are to do with feeling lack of support, especially around money. The text below is from Louise Hay
  • Back: Represents the support of life. I know that Life always supports me.
  • Back Problems: — Lower: Fear of money. Lack of financial support. I trust the process of life. All I need is always taken care of. I am safe.

• Which ever the ideas you use drinking lots of water can help during any energy healing to remove toxins from the body
