On June 26th, a new thread was added to the Retrivers of Truth forum. In this thread, it is explained that they will be releasing daily clues, which when put together, will lead to the revelation of an even bigger clue.
The answer to the first clue left in the thread (The First Word of the First Song in Cabaret) is “Wilkommen” or “Welcome”.

On June 19th, a new discussion thread is added to the Retrievers of Truth forum, which leads gamers to a short video by DJ Dan mixed in with a series of promotional videos on the “Broadband Stories” page of the Verison site.”Screaming DJ“.

On June 20th, Rachel made another post on her blog with a link to the Retrievers of Truth site.
By searching the site, gamers were led to, and eventually found that the video for “Ultimate Journey“, on Verizon’s Broadband Stories site, was replaced by Rachel Blake’s video.
UPDATE:
Several hours after posting the link to her second video, Rachel posted the following comments left by people to her blog.
By clicking on the link circled above, you will be redirected to the picture mentioned in the poster’s comment.
Another poster provided a link to a site about shipwrecks. One of which, is the Black Rock.
Discription from the site:
This British(?) slave-trading vessel disappeared in 1881, on a return voyage from a gold mining operation in the South Indian Ocean. Perhaps more interesting than the fact the ship was lost were the circumstances preceding and following its disappearance. According to traders on Papua New Guinea, the ship sailed away from port in an Easterly direction, rather than West to Africa, where it would exchange gold from the mines in Indonesia and Papua New Guinea for more slaves. Furthermore, though a copy of the ship’s manifest has been discovered - no accurate information is available on the ship’s ownership. According to the manifest, The Black Rock initially sailed from (and was supposed to return to) slip 23 in Portsmouth, Britain — but no shipping company claimed ownership. A crew of some 40 men, along with an uncounted number of slaves, was presumably lost at sea.
UPDATE:
On June 22nd, Rachel’s Copenhagen 02 video is removed from the Broadband Stories website.

On June 16th, gamers were first introduced to Rachel Blake through a video that was found on Monster.com. Many, including yours truely, felt that since it wasn’t directly linked to one of the ARG sites, that it was just another fan made video.
It is among the general concensus on the various forums that Monster.com may have posted the video too early, and the video has since been removed from their site.
On June 19th, a ghostly image appeared on Persephone.thehansofoundation.org.
Audio can be heard in the background of the site. When the audio is reversed, gamers found that it was a voice reciting the following numbers. Well, it took some doing, especially with the ghetto audio program that I have, but here is the audio with the number string. The first part is how it is played on the Persephone site, and the second half is the audio reversed so that you can hear the numbers.
101 118 105 100 101 110 116 3297 103 101 110 100 97

By entering the password you will be redirected to Rachel Blake’s personal blog.
If you look in the comments to her blog entry, you will find messages from different people. Two in particular are binary codes from Persephone and Alvar Hanso.
The Hanso binary code, has an error in it however, and can’t be traslated at this time.
Another comment includes a url which was previously discovered through the lock out message on the Hanso site.
The main problem with the comments however is that anyone (I even posted something) can post a comment hence it is impossible to tell if the various posts are ARG related or not.
UPDATE:
Although it is getting harder and harder to sift through all the posts in Rachel’s comments section because more and more people are posting remarks, many have noticed that there is a dialogue going one between Rachel and poster by the name of Mel0Drama. The following transcript is compliments of perro2 from 4815162342.com:
Mel0Drama:
Rachel… I don’t know if you really look through all these
threads, but if you do, I NEED to talk to you.Mel:
>>Rachel… I don’t know if you really look through all these
>>threads, but if you do, I NEED to talk to you.>>Hello?
Rachel? Hi? Hello?
RB: Hey, Mel0Drama - what’s up?
Mel:Call me Mel.
RB:What’s up, Mel?
Mel:Nobody ever listens to me. This is stupid.
RB:I just looked back through the posts. You say you NEED to
talk. About what? you got info on Hanso? Mittelwerk?Mel:No… not really. I can’t specifically link either of
them…RB:So… what, Mel? Girlfriend problems? Need a stock tip?
Mel:Don’t. make. fun. of. me.
RB:This conversation is about ten seconds from over.
Mel:He’s in our heads, Rachel.
RB:Who is?
Mel:Hackett. Dr. Hackett.
RB:Okay… I’ve never heard of a Dr. Hackett.
Mel:I used to work for him. He’s here, with the rest of them.
In Atlanta. At the EDC. They sneak it in, we lap it up. I have proof!RB:Mel, it’s been fascinating. Truly.
Mel:WAIT!! You need safe passage for your videos. You said so
yourself. Places you can hide them. Places THEY can’t find them. I have a place. Nobody can get to it but ME. I have all the keys. Your videos will be safe for all to see.RB:What are you talking about?
Mel:I work in the archive of the Engineering Development
Center. It was a punishment. I asked Hackett too many questions. But he never could have guessed… the ARCHIVE was the last place he should have sent me to work. I have the proof. The DOCUMENTS are all there. Sealed in a vault. Untouched by human hands. Ready to convict. And, I need you to help me expose them.RB:So, why don’t you just post your evidence here and get done with it?
Mel:BECAUSE NOBODY BELIEVES ME. They have to see for
themselves. They have to see the documents. Sitting in the company vault. On the company mainframe. Please.It’s a fair exchange.
RB:What is?
Mel:I’ll hide your video, secure it for your users to access
online. Password-protected. On a CORPORATE mainframe. Untouchable. All you have to do is tell your followers to go to my archive portal and hear my story… once they do, I’ll place your video in the archive vault. They can watch it through my portal!RB:No. Here’s how I work. You host my video, keep it secure.
If I’m satisfied people can see it, that The Hanso Foundation can’t hack it, that YOU’RE not part of the Foundation yourself, THEN I’ll put the word out to my friends to check out your “evidence” about Hackett and whatever the heck you think he’s doing. Deal?Mel:… Deal.
Aside from the above dialogue, there was a message from Rachel addressing her Monster.com video.
Wow.
So, I’ve looked through my comments, and I’ve looked all over the web… and frankly, I’m a little blown away…
I’ve already got a problem with my videos!!
This may be recap for those of you at the bleeding edge of the story - but, before my blog even went live, my first video was out there, all over the web, for EVERYONE to see.Now, that, in and of itself is not a bad thing. I mean, I WANT everyone to see what’s going on.
But, the very fact this has happened? It’s made me realize my site might not be as secure as I think it is. And, I can’t sit by idly waiting for something to happen again.
What I have to say is important. Too important for me to post my video diaries to a site that THEY could hack or shut down.
So, I’ve made a decision. Rather than risk these posts not being seen, I’ll be sneaking all the videos to come onto some major corporate websites.
They’ll be password protected - you’ll have to check back for the keys.
I apologize in advance for the bold commercialism. But in my mind, if you have to sit through an ad or two… that’s a price worth paying to hear the truth. ENOUGH about that!

Transcript:
ANNOUNCER: *music playing* Coming to you live from your conscience.
FEMALE VOICES: *singing* DJ Dan.
ANNOUNCER: *music playing* You’re listening to DJ Dan… *sound effect* Shutting down the man!
DJ DAN: Mind control, people. We’re talking about mind control. Come on. We all know why MDMA and LSD and PCP and GHB and LMNOP are illegal. Because the Man doesn’t want you to have the very weapons he’s dumping in our drinking water and mac and cheese! So I ask, have you been brainwashed? Are you BEING brainwashed? Do you WANT to be brainwashed? We’re taking your calls.
CALLER ONE: Hi, I’m Debuke from Albuquerque.
DJ DAN: Yeah, you’re kidding, right?
CALLER ONE: Parents can be cruel, DJ Dan. Dan, I feel like you’re right. We ARE being brainwashed. I’m pretty close to Los Alamos and other nuclear experiments, and I just feel this pressure on my brain, all the time.
DJ DAN: Uh yeah, That could just be your sinuses, Dub, just throwing it out there…
CALLER ONE: What I’m saying is I noticed when I was making my Cinnamon Raisin Toast, my toaster, it blocked the rays. When I was toasting, I felt just as clear as day.
DJ DAN: Fascinating, Debuke. Turn on your toasters, people. Next caller!
CALLER TWO: It’s uh Jerry, from Ontario
DJ DAN: Uh oh! We got ourselves a Canuck!
CALLER TWO (Jerry): Yeah, we come in peace. Listen, Dan, I want to say in response to what you were saying earlier about the Hanso Foundation, do you really think they’re involved in mind control?
DJ DAN: Tip of the iceberg, Jerry, tip of the iceberg! It’s like, who are these guys? Recap for those who missed it: my legion of conspiraspies have been following the Hanso Foundation since ‘92, when they were forcefully ejected from the Congo. I mean seriously, to be forcefully ejected from the Congo? How bad do you gotta be? What does a clown have to do to get ejected from the circus? What does a rat have to do to get ejected from the sewer? So uh, some of my conspiraspies went deep-sea fishing off the coast of east Asia, cause they heard about our little Hanso friends’ little offshore research platform. And they can’t see it. But what they can see is this skinny little line sticking way up into the sky. Now what do you guys think that might be, eh? Who are we kidding! Hope you’ve got your foil helmets on boys and girls! Next caller!
CALLER THREE: Dan, this is Franklin, I teach bioengineering at a Big 10 university.
DJ DAN: Hut hut Franklin, hike me the info!
CALLER THREE (Franklin): Well, what I’m worried about is nanotechnology.
DJ DAN: Uh, nanotech-whuh?
CALLER THREE (Franklin): Nanotechnology? It’s essentially the miniaturization of machines down to the molecular level.
DJ DAN: Uh wait whoa whoa whoa, you mean robots so small that they’re invisible? That sounds awful! Why would anyone want to do that?
CALLER THREE (Franklin): Well, there’s lots of useful applications. Medicine, computers. For example, you could capture billions of these nanites–
DJ DAN: Nanites? Is that geek for invisible tiny robots?
CALLER THREE (Franklin): Right–you could capture them in an electromagnetic field and have them float over–say–wheat fields, acting as a poison-free pesticide.
DJ DAN: Whoa whoa wait a minute–what does that even look like? If a bunch of these nano-thingies got together—What are we talking about here?
CALLER THREE (Franklin): Something like a–storm cloud.
DJ DAN: *Laugh* OK, Frankie… you know, sometimes a storm cloud is just a storm cloud. So wait a second, wait a second. So you’re saying these uh, tiny invisible robots can kill?
CALLER THREE (Franklin): Yes. And they can think.
DJ DAN: Well, you heard it folks, tiny invisible killer brains. And I was worrying about the Hanso Foundation. DJ Dan, back in three, gotta slip into my impenetrable, lead suit…
MUSIC
ANNOUNCER: *music playing* You’re listening to DJ Dan… *sound effect* Shutting down the man!
