 NAMBLA (North American Man/Boy Love Association) was a United States-based organization that advocated for the normalization of sexual relationships between men and boys. Several NAMBLA members also belonged to [[Spartacus Club]], the membership organization operated by [[John Stamford]] from [[Amsterdam]]. FBI and other federal law enforcement records identified [[John Stamford]] as a Club Spartacus official, and NAMBLA officials did not deny that several of the group's members belonged to [[Spartacus Club]]. Names of Westchester members of [[Spartacus Club]] were discovered along with thousands of other men and women in the London computers of [[John Stamford]]. Vital information on each member stored on computer and guarded with secret codes included their sexual preferences, the desired age of the children, and preferred country of origin. [[John Stamford]]'s operation, aided through his association with [[Francis Shelden]], extended all the way to the United States in affiliation with NAMBLA.[^1]

 The [[Palo Alto Medical Clinic]] oversaw the medical and psychological evaluations for psychic subjects in the [[Stanford Research Institute]] (SRI) remote viewing program. These evaluations, which included a wide range of tests from blood work and EEGs to various psychological inventories, were designed to identify any neurophysiological or personality features that correlated with psychic abilities. The aim was to understand how psi worked, how it could be enhanced, and to develop screening tools for selecting psychics from the general population.[^1]
