BillyG, if you don't want to debate Judy, debate the use of pepper spray in 
civil disobedience with Rachel Maddow then defend the militarization of police 
and the use of non-lethal weapons, pepper spray, tear gas, bullets and sound 
cannons. Non-lethal weapons only increase the occasion for unnecessary use of 
force against nonviolent protesters.

Pepper Spray is off the Scoville Scale, 3 to 5 times greater than any known 
type of pepper. It can cause permanent damage to the lungs, eyes and the immune 
system. 
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/26315908/vp/45410896#45410896

"Citizens who engage in civil disobedience do so knowing that they risk arrest; 
in some cases they actually welcome it. And if police and prosecutors choose to 
accommodate by filling our jails and our courts with peaceful protesters, 
that's up to them. But physically assaulting protesters for refusing to obey an 
order, lawful or otherwise, should not be an option for officers of the peace.

Officers and their commanders need to remind themselves that by the SPD's own 
policy (.pdf), "less lethal" weapons like pepper spray are intended as 
"alternatives to the use of deadly force." They are not meant to be used as a 
convenient means of crowd dispersal. They are not intended as some sort of 
righteous street justice against disruptive protesters. Essentially, if the 
officer wouldn't otherwise shoot the person in the face, he has no business 
pepper spraying him.

If protesters are breaking the law and refuse to desist in response to a lawful 
order, the police have the right to arrest them. Yes, mass arrests can be time 
consuming and labor intensive. And yes, calmly surrounding the protesters, 
cuffing them, and hauling them off one by one sure does take a long time to 
clear out a blocked intersection. But, you know, it's their job.

Civil disobedience can be awfully inconvenient to authorities. In fact, that's 
kinda the point.

But unless the police believe they have no other choice but to open fire on the 
crowd, then they have no right to viciously, remorselessly, and lazily resort 
to the use of chemical weapons against unarmed civilians."

[FairfieldLife] Phenomenal Woman

[Yifu]

by Maya Angelou, in Poemhunter:

" Phenomenal Woman  

  
  Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.
I'm not cute or built to suit a fashion model's size
But when I start to tell them,
They think I'm telling lies.
I say,
It's in the reach of my arms
The span of my hips,
The stride of my step,
The curl of my lips.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

I walk into a room
Just as cool as you please,
And to a man,
The fellows stand or
Fall down on their knees.
Then they swarm around me,
A hive of honey bees.
I say,
It's the fire in my eyes,
And the flash of my teeth,
The swing in my waist,
And the joy in my feet.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

Men themselves have wondered
What they see in me.
They try so much
But they can't touch
My inner mystery.
When I try to show them
They say they still can't see.
I say,
It's in the arch of my back,
The sun of my smile,
The ride of my breasts,
The grace of my style.
I'm a woman

Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

Now you understand
Just why my head's not bowed.
I don't shout or jump about
Or have to talk real loud.
When you see me passing
It ought to make you proud.
I say,
It's in the click of my heels,
The bend of my hair,
the palm of my hand,
The need of my care,
'Cause I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

'The 'TM-Flying Sutra' is not meant for 'Levitation'...
It has to do with 'Flying on the level of Consciousness'...

There is another sutra mentioned in 'Pantanjali's Yoga Sutras' which has to do 
with levitation...

The one which M used is one that results in 'Flying through space on the level 
of Consciousness'...

I know you aren't as stupid as you come across, BillyG.
What I don't understand is why you're so willing to
*look* stupid. Aren't you embarrassed to have everyone
here think you're stupid? Or is it that you think *I'm*
stupid and will be taken in by the mind-bogglingly 
stupid comment you just made? That would be *really*
stupid.

If you want to continue the conversation, stop playing
stupid games and make a reasonably intelligent comment.

Because of how the weapons were used, i.e., against
protesters who were posing no threat. At UC-Davis, they
were sitting on the ground, and a campus cop strolled
down the line calmly spraying them right in the face.
Totally inexcusable. If the police had tried to remove
them physically and they'd resisted and fought back,
then pepper spray or even batons might have been
appropriate.

People have the right to protest in this country, BillyG.
They have the right to commit civil disobedience if they're
willing to take the consequences--but if the protesters

Not you personally, but I've heard a lot of outrage from the OWS sympathizers; 
like, who cares they're costing US taxpayers millions of dollars across the 
Country, right!  DON'T MESS WITH THE POLICE!!! When are these public school 
graduates gonna learn? They all need spankings and told to go home! :-/

Did you hallucinate that anyone said any of these

The difference is these Catholic saints had real spiritual development, most 
TM'ers (or any other types of meditators) aren't that spiritually advanced.

These Siddhas will wear out their knees and legs WAY before they ever levitate. 
 The body wasn't designed by the creator to hop like a frog (or any other 
creature).

I hear Police batons can also be very dangerous...not to speak of, well, guns. 
All of these dangerous weapons should be banned and hey, who cares if 'occupy 
wall street' shuts down the ports, I still have plenty of microwave popcorn.

Oh, and ban spanking too!

[FairfieldLife] Uselessness of the TM Sidhis technique for levitation

[Yifu]

Given the facts that (a) sustained hovering hasn't been achieved by any known 
TM Sidha, and (b) numerous Catholic Saints have been witnessed demonstrating 
genuine levitation; a first step in a scientific enguiry might be to compare 
what differs wrt TM and the meditation techniques used by the Saints - that 
enabled them to levitate.
...
>From an antigravity.tripod website, on the Levitating Saint Cupertino, 
>1603-1663:

"St. Joseph of Cupertino, a 17th-Century Priest, was famed as 'the Flying 
Friar' because of his astounding ability to float around in the air like a 
human balloon! 

His amazing feats were witnessed by hundreds of people, including Pope Urban 
VIII.
He was born Giuseppe Desa in Italy on June 17, 1603, under circumstances 
remarkably similar to those surrounding the birth of Jesus Christ. 

Giuseppe's father, a poor carpenter, was forced to leave town with his pregnant 
wife when he was harassed by creditors, and Giuseppe was born in a stable.   As 
a boy, he spent all his time praying, and at age 8, he even built a small altar 
in a corner of his home. 

At the age of 22, Guiseppe was accepted into the Franciscan order, and on March 
28, 1628, he was ordained as a priest and sent to a small parish where his 
miraculous flights began to occur. 

The first time it happened, he was praying in church, when he suddenly sailed 
into the air with a shriek of ecstacy and landed on the altar.  And then, 
giving another shout of joy, he flew back to the spot where he had been praying 
before. 

Word of his amazing levitation powers reached Rome, and Pope Urban VIII 
summoned the young Priest to the Vatican.   Giuseppe became so joyous in the 
Pope's presence, that he rose into the air in a trance.   The Pope was stunned. 
  He promised that he would personally vouch for Giuseppe's rare and obviously 
holy talent. 

Giuseppe's fame quickly spread beyond Italy, and pilgrims from other countries 
flocked to his church to see him fly.   He once floated in the air for 20 
yards, hovering among burning candles, without being burned! 

On his deathbed, in September 1663, Giuseppe, then 60 years old, fell into a 
trance and floated gently to the steps of a chapel.   He passed on to the 
Infinite the next day."

The TMO needs to show someone who can levitate in the air for several minutes.  
That should end all doubts of the TM-Sidhi techniques.

You will notice that the video is a demonstration without the science
explained live.Even if the explanation opportunity was missed in the
video, the awe inducing wonder of the demonstration will hopefully
capture the attention!
This video gives a little more explanation into the  effect at work here
(superconductivity + quantum trapping of the  magnetic field in quantum
flux tubes) and an awesome demonstration of a  crude rail system. You
can almost hear your tiny mind explode when the  "train" goes
upside-down.

http://www.quantumlevitation.com/levitation/See_it_in_Action.html
http://tinyurl.com/3zqunbx
"Quantum Levitation.A thin superconductor layer (~1µm thick) is
coated on a sapphire wafer. Quantum physics tells us that the magnetic
field penetrates into the superconductor in the form of discrete flux
tubes. The superconductor strongly pins these tubes, causing  it to
float in midair. This effect is called `quantum levitation'.
http://tinyurl.com/68c5efj
We start with a single crystal sapphire
  wafer and coat it with a thin
(~1µm thick) ceramic material called yttrium barium copper oxide
  (YBa2Cu3O7-x
).  The ceramic layer has no interesting magnetic or electrical
properties  at room temperature. However, when cooled below -185ºC
(-301ºF) the  material becomes a superconductor
 . It conducts
electricity without resistance, with no energy loss. Zero.
http://tinyurl.com/d7rlond
Superconductivity and magnetic field do not like each other. When 
possible, the superconductor will expel all the magnetic field from 
inside. This is the Meissner effect
 .  In our case, since the
superconductor is extremely thin, the magnetic  field DOES penetrates.
However, it does that in discrete quantities  (this is quantum physics
after all! ) called flux tubes.
Inside each magnetic flux tube superconductivity is locally destroyed. 
The superconductor will try to keep the magnetic tubes pinned in weak 
areas (e.g. grain boundaries). Any spatial movement of the 
superconductor will cause the flux tubes to move. In order to prevent 
that the superconductor remains "trapped" in mid-air. "
http://tinyurl.com/clal36n

BTW
Try yourself: Briefly hold an object that has been frozen in liquid 
nitrogen (or dunk their hand or pour it over their skin) because of a 
phenomenon called the Leidenfrost Effect.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leidenfrost_effect
The natural warmth of the body  helps create an insulating vapor layer
on the skin when a much cooler  liquid encounters it, so brief handling
of very cold substances are  possible. This effect is lost if the skin
is wet or if the skin is  exposed to the cold for much too long.

However, when cooled below ...how are the temperature  in the Domes,
lately?

It's funny, but pepper spray is actually no joke. Anybody

The spray can cause fatal respiratory failure in those
with asthma or other respiratory conditions; it can
injure the cornea with repeated exposure; and other
chemical ingredients in the spray can also be harmful.

If you use Yahoo's Rich Text Editor, right-click the graphic,
click Copy, and then paste it into the message window with
Ctrl-V. (That's how it works with IE, at any rate. Copying
the image puts it on the Windows Clipboard.) Doesn't always
work, but usually it does.

[FairfieldLife] dumb and dumber (was The World According To Barry)

[Bob Price]

Every time I think you can't post anything dumber, you make a liar out of me; 
this time with a variation on a joke, as stale as a Polish light bulb joke 
(sorry tom), attempting to mock the sophistication of more than three hundred 
million people who belong to the most diverse and successful culture in the 
history of the world. You really should hang it up, not because you're 
embarrassing yourself---thats old news, but because I think you're starting to 
embarrass Sal. And since you seem to be a bit challenged by what pictures mean, 
without words, here are a bunch of words mentioning the late seventies version 
of your “map”: this time mocking “Sloane Rangers”.

IMO, the pictures in this next link are fairly straight forward, but if the 
context eludes you, maybe you can ask the waitress (or Sal).

Yes, and since I'm in Gmail and Google owns Youtube, there's both the link
where you put it and a miniature of the Youtube video with a play button on
it, on the bottom of the post.

Barry and a few others are good at posting links which are actually not

No. What you read, as I said, was wrong:

"The Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission reported in 2011 that Fannie & Freddie 
'contributed to the crisis, but were not a primary cause.' GSE 
[government-sponsored enterprise] mortgage securities essentially maintained 
their value throughout the crisis and did not contribute to the significant 
financial firm losses that were central to the financial crisis. The GSEs 
participated in the expansion of subprime and other risky mortgages, but they 
followed rather than led Wall Street and other lenders into subprime lending."

Just want to point out once again how you can make up

Oh, what a treasure, Denise. Especially since he was such
a thoughtful, articulate man.

> His words on parenting, politics, and religion follow.

There are similarities with my mother's family. She would
have been a contemporary of your grandfather; she died in
2005 at the age of 94. Her parents were loving but had
also followed the then-current thinking that one should
avoid being demonstrative with one's children. She said
her mother would insist that she sit on her mother's lap
while she brushed her hair, and she always thought that
was her mother's way of giving her a good cuddle on the
sly, so to speak.

Fortunately by the time my sister and I were born, 
parenting advice had swung in the other direction, and
she had no inhibitions about showing us affection.

My mother's family were also staunch Republicans up
until FDR, when they became equally staunch Democrats.
Both her parents were MDs, country doctors, my
grandmother at a time when woman MDs were rare. My
grandmother was active in the women's suffrage
movement.

I gather my mother's parents weren't particularly
religious, but her paternal grandparents were. She
remembered interminable evenings spent in family Bible
reading and prayer when she was visiting them on the
farm and getting thumped on the head with her
grandmother's thimble-clad finger if she wasn't paying
attention. She ended up with a strong dislike of
organized religion, although she did believe in an
abstract sort of God, something like your grandfather's
idea.

My sister and I wish we'd sat my mother down with a tape
recorder and got her talking. She loved to talk and to
tell stories, and she had a fantastic sense of humor.
You're so fortunate to have that record of your
grandfather. Thanks for sharing some of it with us.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Pikes Peak carriage line eating station

[Emily Reyn]

Judy, interesting.  I've been thinking recently about how ancestral traits are 
transferred down through the generations.  For the Germans, is seems that a 
strong work ethic is one of them as is a perfectionistic trait.  

I was reading my maternal grandfather's story last night.  Us grandkids loved 
him dearly.  He was born in 1904 and died at the age of 99.5.  His father died 
when he was 14 and he entered Stanford at 16, was one of the first graduating 
Stanford class of aeronautical engineers, and helped design the C-54, used in 
the Berlin Airlift. He was always proud of this.  

My ma had someone come in and tape/interview him when he was 92 and wrote it up 
for the family.  It was a great idea.

His words on parenting, politics, and religion follow.


Re: Parenting.  

Grandpa states:  "One thing that my parents had in common was the way they 
couldn't stand braggarts and arrogant people.  My father gave me very little 
praise and my mother likewise.  They thought too much praise would spoil a 
child.  My father had a lot of difficulty expressing any form of loving or 
emotional feelings and I think that's characteristic of the whole Buckwalter 
family.  The Buckwalters don't want to show how they're feeling.  They don't 
show affection either.  They tend to be rather critical, and I guess they're 
perfectionistic - all of them.  I think the most important thing that I learned 
from my father was perseverance. My father never gave up.  He always used to 
say.."If the thing is worth doing at all, it is worth doing well."

Re: Politics.  

As background, my great-great grandfather moved from PA to Kentucky and then 
settled in Mississippi and started the J.R. Buckwalter Lumber Company. Grandpa 
strongly believed that the government should not take what he and his 
forefathers had worked so hard to accumulate and conserve. 


Grandpa states: "Politically, I've always been conservative.  My parents were 
Republicans and my grandparents were too.  Even in Mississippi, where the South 
was supposed to be Democrat, all of the Buckwalters were generally Republicans."

Re: Religion.  

Grandpa states:  "I don't think it's right to pray for something for yourself 
and then in the next breath to say everything is in God's hands.  If there is a 
God, I can't believe that he concerns himself with these things or with us as 
individuals.  There must be some universal intelligence that controls the 
universe - and an ant is no less important than a human being.  There are a lot 
of people that don't believe that, though.  They believe implicitly in the 
religious claim of creation.  They believe that God created man and therefore 
man is superior. Here I am - I can't accept that man was created as a superior 
being.  I can't believe that and I couldn't believe that.  I guess I'm an 
atheist, but I can't consider myself irreligious because I have great respect 
for whatever created our universe.  I keep hoping that someone will come up 
with some sort of proof.  Scientists are making progress in finding out how the 
universe works and how it
 got started.  They've already given us an indication of the extent of the 
universe - that it's unlimited.  We're all living together in this universe.  
We're on one little-bitty speck of it, and I guess as human beings we aren't 
any more important in the vast scheme of things than an ant, or a bird, or any 
other living thing."

No, no, no, obviously you have NOT worked in the corporate world or you 
would  know what I'm talking about.  You claim to be a career Kshatriya 
anyway.

I've been watching the degradation of the corporate world over the 
decades.  Corporate heads operate these days with counsel at their elbow 
to see what they can get away with.  Just focusing on the fraud that the 
banks have committed.  You have the banks hiring twenty somethings to 
robo sign false papers declaring the bank owns a property when they 
technically don't.  That is fraud.

You are also focusing on the dirty end or enforcement end of organized 
crime but many of those crime bosses run their businesses like 
legitimate ones.  And we have the corporate world hiring thugs like 
Blackwater.  Little difference.

And given that Marx was pointing this out back in the mid-1800s this 
problem is more than a few decades own.  Hell, the founding fathers laid 
down some pretty strict rules regarding corporations because they had a 
bad experience with the British East India Company.  Those laws were 
abolished after the Civil War.

When you're in a war there are a lot of things you
can do that you can't do in peacetime. All the drone
strikes are approved by the U.S. Secretary of State.

So, using a drone to kill Osam bin Laden, or an enemy 
like him, isn't anything like Bill Walton and shopping 
at Walmart.

Less likely than collateral damage from an invasion
of Pakistan using ground troops? You're not making
any sense. It would take over 500,000 allied coalition 
troops to invade Pakistan and kill the al Qaeda and the
Taliban. Hillary Clinton supported the NATO bombing
of Libya.

"Seven months later, with longtime U.S. nemesis Moammar 
Gaddafi dead and Libya's onetime rebels now in charge, 
the coalition air campaign has emerged as a foreign 
policy success for the Obama administration and its 
most famous Cabinet member, Secretary of State Hillary 
Rodham Clinton..."

[FairfieldLife] Enlightened Standup (was Re: Ode to Sal (was Yo Denise))

[turquoiseb]

Just *loved* your description of the morning breakfast
ritual, Obba. But the real reason I'm replying is that
you and Ravi touched on a subject dear to my heart.

I have long felt that the only viable role that a truly
enlightened being would take in this century, and in
this culture, would be that of a standup comedian.

What would be a better platform from which to spread
the dharma? I mean, think about it. People come to you
because they're hoping you'll make them laugh, or at
the very least chuckle, and thus feel lighter about
themselves, and their lives. Heck, they even *pay*
you for this.

And if you *are* actually funny, and *do* actually
lighten their lives, what's the harm in slipping in
a few juicy bits from the dharma into your routine?

I can honestly conceive of an enlightened being making
the conscious decision to go into comedy instead of
going into spiritual teaching, as it has traditionally
been taught. History has not been kind to the latter,
or to its effects, whereas the former has been consis-
tently successful in getting people to laugh -- and
lighten up -- for quite some time now.

I have Pennsylvania Dutch (Dutch = Deutsch, i.e., German)
ancestry as well, although not in the Buckwalter line as
far as I know. My mother's grandparents were strict
Calvinist farm folk, serious and hard-working as they come.

This shouldn't be a problem for you with your tantra

so he could earn some good bucks to send back to
India to his relatives. It doesn't matter that he

My plan is to implement tax reform so that people 
don't have to pay such high payroll taxes - and to 
cut the red tape so that small businesses can grow. 
If we follow Ron Paul's plan, we could revitlize 
the free market system so that people have good 
jobs that pay good money.

When you reduce the size of government, people 
would only have to pay a very small payroll tax.
Everyone knows that when the taxes are raised, the
spending goes up. The only way to reduce the deficit
is to limit the spending. 

> What kind of jobs?
>
There are thousands of jobs currently available in
Texas and Califorina - there is on-the-job training
for migrant workers - or for anyone that is willing
to work hard. 

Also, there are thousands of jobs in the medical 
field, taking care of old people like you in nursing 
homes or at home. 

There are also jobs in the energy field. A young 
person could be making big bucks in the oil industry 
as a rough-neck in the next few years. Make money
and reduce America's dependence on foreign oil.

> What needs to be done?
> 
Cut the red tape and the high taxes on small businesses
and on wage-earners. Reduce the size of big government.

Implement a flat-tax system so that everyone knows
exactly what taxes they are paying for - close tax 
loopholes for tax-dodgers like you.

The truth is, you don't pay much in income tax, with
all the deductions and loop holes you have. Only a 
very small percentage of wage-earners pay most of the 
federal income tax.

Free markets create opportunities for individuals to
earn money. Free market chaos is caused by individuals
who attempt to get in the way of the free market -
communists and socialists, like you, who want big
government, foreign wars, and high income taxes.

Most successful individuals got their success through
hard work and using their intelligence. You call them
"greedy" because you are jealous and lazy - you don't
want to work, just complain about how much the others
earn. You're even trying to be the thought-police
about what people believe in. Go figure.

Harry Buckwalter did some great early photography and early documentary films.  
He left Pennsylvania for Colorado at an early age.

I come from a German Buckwalter lineage on my mother's side.  Hard working,

Yes, practically the saint issue needs to be 'de-linked' from getting a current 
dome meditation badge.  That is on the hands of the Rajas.

Sorta like the difference between operating a drone from a
comfortable bunker to slaughter the "enemy" (often
accidentally including civilians) by computer vs. shooting
them up close and personal on the ground.

Hard to say which is more heartless. At least with
organized crime, there's less likely to be unintended
"collateral damage."

[FairfieldLife] Re: Anonymous - Message to Occupy the World 11-18-11

[seekliberation]

There are corporations that are embedded or working with organized crime, but I 
seriously doubt that they have the heart to perform the horrific actions that 
members of organized crime commit.  

I doubt that if people quit shopping at wal-mart that Sam Walton would start 
sending out thugs to kidnap family members or start a series of murders.  Where 
the line is drawn, IMO, is the extent to which one will go to achieve their 
means.  For example, some meat eaters will go buy a steak.  But very few of 
them will actually hack an animal to pieces, or go hunting.  They don't have 
the heart for it.  The whole meat industry depends on someone who is willing to 
kill the animal.  Without that, those who do not have the heart for it are 
stuck with being vegetarians.  

I think your argument is that the meat eater is just as guilty as the butcher.  
I can see your logic.  But to me the absolute cruelty to watch a human suffer 
right in front of your eyes is way different from someone who is oblivious due 
to lack of education or awareness.  So to me, there is a big difference between 
the corporations and organized crime, even if they deal with one another (which 
i'm sure they do).

Why, you obviously have a car anyway.

 Anyway, you'd still need a valid dome badge there with those people.

Not according to my friend who was there everyday for weeks just now.

  Same problem for sitting with saints, except for seeing Master John Douglas 
up there.

Which meens they're not that strict.

[FairfieldLife] Fairfield exodus (was Re: "Occupy the Domes!!")

No, the guidelines are very much un-changed.  Maybe in Europe you have a more 
liberal interpretation of what is there in the guidelines to accommodate people 
seeing saints.  However, if you came or moved to Fairfield you'd not be able to 
get a valid dome badge as the guidelines are written.  They still keep people 
out for sitting with saints.  

I just was read through the guidelines in re-applying for the dome meditation.  
The guidelines are still very much un-changed and anti-saint.  The guidelines 
are a communal obstacle for gathering dome numbers.

Going to Vedic City is not the same thing as meditating at the Domes. It's a 
poor substitute that is 5 miles away from the domes.  Anyway, you'd still need 
a valid dome badge there with those people.  Same problem for sitting with 
saints, except for seeing Master John Douglas up there.

If they were kicked out they must have been organizing tours for the so-called 
saints. Just seeing saints is no longer an issue.

A friend of mine who received complaints because of coughing and was banned 
from the Domes recently meditates in a group i Vedic City instead. No problems, 
very nice programmes. No need to meditate in the parking-lot.

[FairfieldLife] Full of Mice

[raunchydog]

The diet of the owl is not
For delicate digestions.
He goes out on a limb to hoot
Unanswerable questions

And just because he winks like men
Who utter sage advice,
We think him full of wisdom when
He's only full of mice.
