Same reason they put in a black man as party chairman, to try to steal of Obama's thunder. It appears that the Republicans are trying to change their image as the party of the priviledged few. Now, they're trying to present a more nclusive party image which happens to have a conservative agenda, mostly rooted in Jefferson's ideas. We should note that Jefferson was rumored to have had dalliances with his female slave, with whom he had several children. Lately, it appears that this rumor is now accepted as fact. Can we assume that you *don't* accept it as fact? DNA tests in 1996 proved that Sally Hemmings' kids were descendents of Jefferson. What do YOU believe as fact? Would you believe that Thomas Jefferson was not diddling his slaves if it said so in the Vedic literature? The reason for the American War of Independance was that the Colonies did not want to go down the read the British were going, where they were having court cases in London to free slaves under 13th century British constitutional law, and the Colonies did not want to give up their slaves. That is the reason for the American War of Independance. OffWorld

That doesn't explain why he feels the need to run a mini-radio empire based on people who make bad decisions in life. Still, every morning -- at 4 am -- and night he clears his head and meditates. Stern credits the practice with helping him quit smoking and achieve his goals in radio. He also announced on his Sirius show last week that he will appear at Hollywood director David Lynch's Change Begins Within concert at Radio City Music Hall on Saturday, April 4. Also appearing are Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, Eddie Vedder, Donovan, Sheryl Crow, Ben Harper, Moby, Bettye Lavette, Paul Horn and Jim James. The event's goals are to raise funds to teach one million at-risk children to meditate -- giving them life-long tools to overcome stress and violence and promote peace and success in their lives. The David Lynch Foundation advocates meditation -- the TM Quiet Time program -- in schools as a means to increase academic performance and attention span. To that end the foundation provides scholarships for students in grades 6-12. From Associated Content: David Lynch and other proponents of TM suggest that students who spend 15-20 meditating each morning experience better concentration in school, better academic performance and lower incidences of depression and anxiety. Despite Howard Stern's repeated self-proclamations that he is the King of All Media, he rarely makes live appearances in public outside of his radio show. Stern stated that he originally considered declining Lynch's offer to appear because of his discomfort about appearing in public, but changed his mind because he believes in the cause so strongly. He also stated that Transcendental Meditation helped to reduce his mother's symptoms of depression. Learn more about the concert at DLF.tv.

[FairfieldLife] Re: Republicans Grooming Jindal for Presidential Candidacy?
So, Vaj, Jindal's 'religion' is a factor in your political science. You sound really, really scared to bring this up. Vaj wrote: Not so much his religion. I've pretty much resigned myself to having to deal with people who worship a guy on a torture device for the rest of my life. Compared to your Tibetan Nyingma 'Yamataka' idol, the Roman Catholic crucifix is just a doll or a good luck charm. You sound really scared of Bobby and Sarah Palin. But that doesn't mean I support a nutcase who performs exorcisms on schoolgirls. The guy should be in jail: From what I've read, Barak Obama's church performs an 'exorcism' almost every hour of the day and twice on Sunday, even on infants as young as one year old. Apparently Obama was an active shooter - so I guess in your society, Obama would be in the cell next to Jindal and Pastor Wright. But, I wonder how many 'exorcisms' the 14th Dalai Lama performs? Jindal is only a state governor, in office for a few months, and the incident seems to have ocurred once, over ten years ago, but the Dalai Lama is the spiritual AND political leader of a whole country for what, seventy years, and probably performed an exorcism just minutes ago.

[FairfieldLife] 'Gates Foundation to cut homelessness'
Gates Foundation joins others in goal to cut homelessness A partnership of governments, businesses and nonprofits is pledging today to redouble its efforts to help the growing number of homeless families in Washington state. The pledge includes up to $60 million over 10 years by the Bill Melinda Gates Foundation. A partnership of governments, businesses and nonprofits is pledging today to redouble its efforts to help the growing number of homeless families in Washington state. The pledge includes up to $60 million over 10 years by the Bill Melinda Gates Foundation. Partners in the Washington Families Fund vowed to reduce the number of homeless families by 50 percent over the next decade. I feel this is an opportunity right now, as much as I'm a realist about the economy, said Alice Shobe, deputy director of Building Changes, which administers the fund. It is ambitious, but we have a vision about how to do it. We have the creativity and broad partnership to make it happen. As the recession throws more people into poverty, we must do more to help families achieve and maintain stability, said Gov. Chris Gregoire, who signed an agreement with King, Snohomish and Pierce counties and the cities of Seattle, Everett and Tacoma to collaborate with the private partners. Created by the state Legislature in 2004, the Washington Families Fund has received contributions of more than $20 million — $12 million from the state and $8.3 million from 18 other partners, including the Gates Foundation, Boeing, Microsoft, the Campion Foundation, the Greater Tacoma Community Foundation, the Ben B. Cheney Foundation and United Way. It has awarded $13 million in grants so far. The Washington Families Fund has not yet revealed any new financial commitments other than the Gates Foundation's pledge. Governments and private groups together spend about $200 million a year to address the problem in Washington state, but as economic conditions worsen, the number of homeless families keeps going up. About half of the state's estimated 22,000 homeless households are families with children. Winter nights The family of Jackilin Abiem, 25, was one of them. She arrived in 2001 as an orphan from Sudan after fleeing civil war and walking for three months across the country and eventually to a refugee camp. Once in Washington, she lived with two foster families, graduated from Garfield High School and landed her first job at McDonald's. Abiem then worked for two years as a cook at a retirement home, but she never earned quite enough money to afford her own apartment. She became homeless after the youth housing where she was staying made her leave when she became pregnant. She then bounced around, staying with four different friends and her foster mom through the birth of her son, Nassir. She remembers window shopping outside on winter nights as she waited for friends to get off work. When I was pregnant, I didn't have a place to live, so I was just running around between friends, she said. It was hard for me to go house to house and to old friends. I keep them worried ... that I may give birth [at] their house. Spending some nights with her foster mom in Mount Vernon and other nights with friends in South King County made it tough to be in West Seattle consistently for her job, and she lost that, too. Abiem is now at Katharine's Place, in a transitional apartment for homeless families in Rainier Valley, but her two-year term ends in December. She is about to give birth to her second son. Katharine's Place had so many people on its two-year waiting list that it closed the list to new applicants in January. Prevention That reflects a rise in the number of homeless families in 2008 over 2007, especially in South King County. The trend lines have gone in the wrong direction, period, said David Bley, director of the Pacific Northwest Initiative at the Gates Foundation. We need to go about tackling the problem differently than we have in the past. For one thing, there's not enough emphasis on preventing homelessness by keeping people in affordable housing. Only 3 percent of the $200 million is used for prevention, he said. It feels totally out of whack from what we know works — it's easier to keep people in a home than put them back once they've lost one, Bley said. Bley said other needed changes include providing permanent housing as soon as possible, rather than transitional housing, and standardizing the fragmented systems used to determine what families need, so they get access to the same services no matter where they go for help. Some people will need a lot of services and some people will need nothing more than a rent subsidy, he said. The program also will focus on improving the economic prospects of people with low incomes or no income, connecting them with work-force development and job training. And more money will be invested in getting better data on homeless families to

[FairfieldLife] Re: The TM Is Not A Religion Religion
They'll say ANYTHING rather than admit what MOST of them know to be the truth, that OF COURSE all of the TM dogma is based on Hindu dogma. They'll lie, they'll deny, they'll come with up excuses, they'll obfuscate, they'll attempt to distract, they'll do ANYTHING rather than violate this First Commandment. My personal fave, (paraphrased): We don't have to tell the kids what the underpinnings are, if people like John Knapp would just keep their mouths shut. Now there's a raving endorsement for the integrity of the teaching. And personally I'm getting a little tired of it. Not me, I still find it endlessly entertaining.

[FairfieldLife] Re: ! Transcend !
Repent, is used in English translations of the Gospels for the Greek word metanoia. But going back to the Greek, it turns out that metanoia can also be understood to mean transcend (beyond-mind). Absolutely, ! Transcend ! you sinners. You who so sin against your own inner Nature repent your non-practice ways, go beyond the mind. The means of enlightenment are now everywhere in the enlightening world. The time is upon all humankind now for a mass of instruction in the ways of repenting through science, through true transcending. The time for ignorance is over. Yes. Transcending. Repenting, going beyond the mind, the means of enlightenment seems are everywhere in the enlightened world. In the modern world, it's on Oprah. It's on PBS Bill Moyers. It's in the outreach of transcendental centering prayers taught in method through so many places of human nature worship otherwise. Eckhardt Tolle books and audio. Is instructed through churches, in synagogues, at temples of all kinds, even in some mosques. In Buddhist Zen centers everywhere. Yoga centers on every corner. Also the transcendental relaxation response in doctors offices. Meditation seminars everywhere. Instructed generally as Quiet time meditation in some schools and in colleges universities public and private. Quiet time now is coming for everyone. The hour is at hand where we shall see who shall repent their non-meditation. Transcendentalism is on the move. Om

[FairfieldLife] Amazing Shipping Container Houses
Invented more than five decades ago, the modern shipping container is the linchpin in our global distribution network of products. In the containers go toys from China, textiles from India, grain from America, and cars from Germany. In go electronics, chocolate, and cheese. While a number of resourceful people have converted shipping containers into make-shift shelters at the margin of society for years, architects and green designers are also increasingly turning to the strong, cheap boxes as source building blocks. Shipping containers can be readily modified with a range of creature comforts and can be connected and stacked to create modular, efficient spaces for a fraction of the cost, labor, and resources of more conventional materials. Discover some of the exciting possibilities of shipping container architecture, from disaster relief shelters to luxury condos, vacation homes, and off-the-grid adventurers. See what makes them green as well as cutting edge. (Photo: Kool-Kini / Flickr ) De Maria Design Redondo Beach House With its modern lines and appealing spaces, the award-winning Redondo Beach House by De Maria Design turns heads. The luxury beach-side showpiece was built from eight prefabricated, recycled steel shipping containers, along with some traditional building materials. According to the architects, the modified containers are nearly indestructible, as well as resistant to mold, fire, and termites. Seventy percent of the building was efficiently assembled in a shop, saving time, money, and resources. One of the containers can even sport a pool! The lessons learned from Redondo Beach House are being incorporated into a line of more affordable, accessible designs, soon available as Logical Homes. (Photo: Urban Space Management) London's Container City Conceived by Urban Space Management, London's Container City first sprang up in the heart of the Docklands in 2001. It took just five months to complete the original 12 work studios, at a height of three stories. Shortly after that a fourth floor of studios and living apartments was added. Container City was designed to be low cost, as well as environmentally friendly. Recycled materials made up 80% of building supplies. Architect Nicholas Lacey and partners and engineer Buro Happold used component pieces to build up adaptable living and work spaces. (Photo: Kool-Kini / Flickr ) Container City II Container City I was a success, and in2002, Urban Space Management added an addition, dubbed Container City II. Reaching five stories high, Container City II is connected to its earlier iteration via walkways. It also boasts an elevator and full disabled access, as well as 22 studios. (Photo: Paul McCredie) Port-a-Bach Need some flexibility with security? Need a temporary structure or small vacation home? Going off the grid? The Port-a-Bach system from New Zealand's Atelier Workshop might be a good fit. Costing around $55,000, Port-a-Bach sleeps two adults and two children comfortably, in a dwelling that folds up into a fully enclosed steel shell. It comes with large internal storage cupboards and shelves; a stainless steel kitchen; bathroom with shower, sink and composting toilet; bunk beds and dressing room. Fabric screens allow you to shape internal space, as well as shelter the outdoor deck area. Bach (pronounced Batch) is Kiwi slang for Bachelor Pad, and refers to the many small cabins that dot the famously picturesque country. (Photo: Urban Space Management) Cove Park Artists' Retreat Set on 50 acres of gorgeous Scottish countryside, Cove Park is an artist's retreat designed to stimulate and reinvigorate. Urban Space Management first brought in three repurposed shipping containers in 2001, and the center became so popular that more units have been added. Doesn't look like your average shipping box, does it? (Photo: Bark Design Collective) All Terrain Cabin Canada's Bark Design Collective built the All Terrain Cabin (ATC) as a showcase for sustainable (and Canadian!) ingenuity. The small home is based on a standard shipping container, and is said to be suitable for a family of four, plus a pet, to live off the grid in comfort and style. The cabin folds up to look like any old shipping container, and can be sent via rail, truck, ship, airplane, or even helicopter. When you're ready to rest your bones, the cabin quickly unfolds to 480 square feet of living space, with a range of creature comforts. (Photo: Courtesy of Ecopod) The Ecopod Another container home designed for on- or off-grid living is the Ecopod. Made from a shipping container, an electric winch is used to raise and lower the heavy deck door (power is supplied by a solar panel). The floor is made from recycled car tires, and the walls have birch paneling (over closed-cell soya foam insulation). The glass is double paned to slow

He recently told me that among those living there, many of the old-time TM teachers have turned to drugs and alcohol. He said that many are addicted to pain killers or are drunkards. He told me this very matter of factly, like it was normal in any community in the US to have a large number of strung out people, but I found it very strange, given MMY's teachings. I know that when I visited him in Fairfield a few years ago and went to see some Guru-passing-through type who was a healer of some kind, there was a huge group of TMers who were active in the domes, visiting the same guy, saying shhh don't say you saw me here. Many many many of them had cancer and other horrible diseases like debilitating arthritis. Most of them were between 25-50 years old. The healer, who happened to be from India, said he had never seen so much disease in such a small, condensed population in his life. I live here, as you know, and it sounds like an exaggeration to me. I'm sure there are instances of all this stuff, but I doubt they're outside the norm for a community of this size and age range.

I wondered about this, and thought NO devotion? how cruel is that, so while standing at the paja, the only exception to this cruelty was that I must be Guru Dev. Is there any other explanation? The question about this promotion to me would be, can the movement handle more Guru Devs. And with that being said , it must be added that we do not charge for the teaching of meditation. Having emailed and talked with various tmers and organizers etc.., I sometimes dont know what to think about what my responsibility should be , in my hopes for anyone and everyone to enjoy life . I have found my experience to be so profound, and always looking for ways to share that. Even from the very beginning when the presentation for TM , left me with a feeling that my gift of flowers was not to be considered part of the process. Guru Dev was able to except that. through transcendental experiance. but transcedental experiance can easily be misunderstood by someone who is not having that same level of experience. I dont get replys to my emails, and sometimes i get red-eyed ,and think it best not to make too much of it. WTF? Does anyone understand what this guy just said? Pleae give a translation. Without Maharishi's direct involvement I think it be better not to charge for the Teaching of Meditation. WTF? OffWorld
[FairfieldLife] Re: ! Transcend or Retire?
You keep posting this definition, so the question arises ... WTF? Metanoia did not originally signify any religious or theological ideas. As a descriptive designation the word developed out of the juridical function of kingship. That means that ordinary people, upon occasion, were brought to the court of a sovereign ruler, who then pronounced sentence upon their situation. This situation might be an accuasation that they commited a crime. It might also be that they performed some civic or virtuous activity that warranted special recognition and reward. In either case, the person singled out fell to the floor or ground (if the King's court was held outside) and in the direct presence of the awesome king and courtiers, lost control of their limbs out of either awe or fear. (To this day, we call the civic arena of juridical debate and decision a court held at a court house.) This awe/aweful response latter became formalized into bowing to the king/queen as a demonstrated act of submission or contrition. As an act of contrition, it was labled meta-noia, literally a change in the nous (intellectus) of the contrite. Since the seat of intellection (non-discursive knowing) was considered to be the heart, the biblical injuctive command - metanoete! - change your heart - was the meaning inherent in the Hellenic biblical command. This change of heart was the condition required for real penitance or genuine regret for one's misdeeds in the presence of a king/queen and was the only foundation for any hope for mercy rather than retribution. Metanoia, as an idea, gradually developed an expanded conotation focused around the core idea of centering attention in one's own heart (as in a change of heart) where a person's nous (intelligence) natually resided. This view became the basis of Egyptian desert monasticism in the 3-6th C.E. and eventually led to the Eastern Orthodox monastic practice of settling the mind into the heart through the practice of the prayer of the heart. We might consider this transcending the mind but within the historical context noted above. All the rest of these claims are nice thoughts but in the end are unconfirmed speculations that flitter around an idea and an actual practice that has been long developed. However, no offence meant ... as Three-City Kirk would say. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, dhamiltony2k5 dhamiltony...@... wrote: Repent, is used in English translations of the Gospels for the Greek word metanoia. But going back to the Greek, it turns out that metanoia can also be understood to mean transcend (beyond-mind). Absolutely, ! Transcend ! you sinners. You who so sin against your own inner Nature repent your non-practice ways, go beyond the mind. The means of enlightenment are now everywhere in the enlightening world. The time is upon all humankind now for a mass of instruction in the ways of repenting through science, through true transcending. The time for ignorance is over. Yes. Transcending. Repenting, going beyond the mind, the means of enlightenment seems are everywhere in the enlightened world. In the modern world, it's on Oprah. It's on PBS Bill Moyers. It's in the outreach of transcendental centering prayers taught in method through so many places of human nature worship otherwise. Eckhardt Tolle books and audio. Is instructed through churches, in synagogues, at temples of all kinds, even in some mosques.In Buddhist Zen centers everywhere. Yoga centers on every corner. Also the transcendental relaxation response in doctors offices. Meditation seminars everywhere. Instructed generally as Quiet time meditation in some schools and in colleges universities public and private. Quiet time now is coming for everyone. The hour is at hand where we shall see who shall repent their non-meditation. Transcendentalism is on the move. Om

Just to be clear, you're talking about prohibition in Mexico. Since Tequila is no longer legal in Mexico, we now sell Al Capone machine guns to the Mexican government to enforce idiotic laws. Geez, if the Mexicans just had a little more respect for the power of free will, we wouldn't have to worry about fascist bootleggers taking our jobs in America.
