[FairfieldLife] PTSD in Africa: How to treat an epidemic of severe stress
http://www.globalgoodnews.com/health-news-a.html?art=14360372496265951 4 July 2015 At least 100 million Africans are estimated to have the post-traumatic stress disorder caused by wars, terror attacks, natural disasters, abuse and chronic violence. In countries like the Democratic Republic of Congo, Rwanda and South Sudan, as much as half of the population may suffer from PTSD. In a one-hour special devoted to the topic, Voice of America's Shaka Ssali discussed the causes, effects and most effective treatments of the disorder with a panel of experts.

Xeno, I replied to a message you had posted here last night, but my reply never showed up, and now I don't see your original message. But I enjoyed your piece about The Cloisters, and wanted to invite you for lunch at the Four Seasons, Pool Room tomorrow (Monday), at noon. That may depend if our attire will permit us entrance, but if not we will dine somewhere else. We'll be a party of four, two adults, and two grown kids. I know little about the Four Seasons other than hearing about it occasionally, but I read that it may have to relocate, and that it had a wonderful atmosphere. And me, being a sucker for darshan, of any sort, I though,we'd make a splurge.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: We Were at this Place Today
I'm gonna try this again, since last night's message didn't come through. We saw the fireworks last night, and they were, I may say, exceedingly mediocre. I am guessing that what makes them special would be the backdrop of the Statue of Liberty, but from our vantage point inside the city, they were pretty average. And yes, there was a heavy police presence during that time, as I guess there was talk of some event, but overall, the police presence was pretty average. The highlight of yesterday's activities was the Observation Deck at the World Trade Center. This was more than your get off the elevator at the 105 th floor, and look around. Someone designed a pretty remarkable experience from the time you board the elevator, until the time you exit. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, noozguru@... wrote : Does New York look like an armed encampment.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: PROVIDER OF KNOWLEDGE
Xeno, thank you for your detailed response. I enjoyed every minute of it! Oh, a little follow up on Bhairitu's comment about high security in NYC. As I met my wife and daughter after they attended Mass at St. Patrick's Cathedral ,there was a heavy police presence,. They were with armed semi, or fully automatic assault rifles and other gear. So, that was interesting. Also, the two Memorial Pools at the 9-11 site, marking the location of the two towers, was very impressive, IMO. Everything to do with the memorial was controversial including the memorials, but I found them to be rather perfect. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, anartaxius@... wrote : Thanks for the invitation, but I have other obligations.

I tried to watch it - man was it awful! Lame acting and RIDICULOUSLY bad
dialogue.
It might vie for worst sci fi film with that god awful Prometheus.

People must love those references or they wouldn't always do them right? Worst sci-fi movie I have ever seen must be Battleship.

It's more accurately described as an advert for America's values and it's endless fight against the nameless terrors that threaten the safety of the American way of life.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: PROVIDER OF KNOWLEDGE
I know what you mean. You know the Bay Area and San Francisco is probably getting as bad as New York to drive into. And it is only about 35 miles away from here. Last time I did that was 3 years ago for a conference. My car is 17 years old but then it's a Subaru Forester and I've kept it up. Funny thing, the dealer left a robocall the other day that I hadn't been in for service since 2009. Yup, I found a independent shop up the street that has a Subaru mechanic and they've been keeping it up for me. And they cost less than the dealer. I don't need to do much driving since everything is just a few miles away. But I did have to replace a few things around 110,000 miles and those will be good for another 100K.

The Cloisters was interesting. That day I was there, I went with a local photo club. The museum gave me temporary permission to use a tripod so I was able to get shots in darker areas until my camera died. I used my SO's camera for the rest of the day. I think that camera died a few months later too. Once again thanks for the invite, but it takes a lot of pressure to get me to go into New York City.

Thanks for the follow up. I suspect much of this is security theater and unnecessary. They could do it more covertly given our technology. I think they want to condition us to live like we're in a Stalag. We had a 32 year old woman shot dead on the Embarcadero the other evening. They caught the guy who did it and he was a Mexican who had been deported 5 times already and had felony convictions. Apparently he just decided to shoot somebody. And I bet he used an unregistered gun so gun laws aren't going to help in these situations. Nor would security theater. We've also had a couple of shooting down the road from me on the freeway.

You Scorpions have an interesting society. I was just reading that you still have allotments in England. That is mighty interesting - I wonder how it works in reality - what if one person likes to grow their veggies organically, and the chap in the adjacent allotment likes to use various sorts of poisons? Also had to laugh when I read that some time ago some genius decided to use the metric measurement of lots instead of the traditional poles. Wonder who did that?

Laugh of the day - thanks Xeno.
Last time I was in NYC was many a year ago on my way to the Catskills,
specifically to Livingston Manor to get my first bloc of the siddhis under the
auspices of Reed Martin and TM Siddhi Administrators Big Bopper Bevan and John
Cowhig.
While at Port Authority waiting for my bus, I was accosted by a crazy old Irish
Catholic bag lady who gave me shit and told me I was going to hell for not
going to church. She assumed that my red hair and pale skin meant I was Irish.
I also witnessed a helluva fight between a big fat woman and one of the men in
charge of one of the bus lines. They didn't throw any punches but god almighty
they sure did cuss each other out. I had not traveled much outside of South
Carolina at that point in my life, and I had never heard anybody cussing each
other like that in public.
I also stepped between an old homeless guy and a young girl, teenager, he was
harassing. Port Authority cop stepped in too, right after I did.
Interesting time and little did I realize in my TM brain addled mode that I was
about to spend two weeks rubbing elbows with some people at LM who were a whole
lot crazier than anybody I saw in Port Authority. Some of those TM'ers had
actually sold their homes to get enough money to do the siddhis all the way
through. I admired 'em at the time.

Yes we do still have allotments, and long may that continue. Anyone can apply
for one but there is a waiting list as they don't provide new land these days.
There are several plots in my town but me and some friends took over a bit of
unused land by a river and called it the asquatment. We formed a land
reclamation union based on an old peasant movement called The Diggers who took
over common land to grow food on.
We grew good stuff there for years but I moved away and other people got bored
and it all got overgrown, so there isn't much going on there now. Shame as
there's nothing like freshly grown food. We had a little shed and some picnic
chairs next to the river and I used to spend summer evenings there, but it's
gone now. Someone must have pinched it.
Don't know how they cope with the pesticides in allotments but in farming, you
can't call food organic if it's been grown near food that isn't organic, or on
land that has had pesticides used on it in the last 5 (?) years.

I did see it a long time ago - I like mind Battleship all that much, I thought it was better than Prometheus. But to get real now you gotta get to something like Minority Report which I liked very much. There is one called Battle Los Angles - kind of a similar plot deal to Battleship in that invading aliens are beat down by some US Marines, but I liked it mainly cause I like Aaron Eckhart who stars. and Battleship was a Hasbro movie, as was Transformers and GI Joe.

[FairfieldLife] Re: Roots of TM
Too much TM apographa in this explanation. TMers think like ordinary householders so they give a narrative that only makes sense within their prescribed view. Renunciation (sannyasa) is neither a combination nor an alteration of meditation and action. Sannyasaa is the complete and unalterable abandonment of this world (or any world at all). Why did Swami Brahmananda decide to accept the kingly life of worldly adoration? This is the unanswered question.

Greece has decisively rejected the austerity package wanted by other EU members. What this means is unclear to everyone. Greece could be on its way out of the Eurozone and the fallout for the EU could be a long-term recession. It will end in tears whatever. Greece owes $330 billion. There are only 11 million Greeks! One article discussing the crisis mentioned that Britain once defaulted on its debt to the USA. I'd never heard of that one but it turns out that in 1934 Britain defaulted on war debts to the USA worth about $350 billion in today’s money. So virtually the same amount! Most people think we have paid the debt off, but we haven’t. So if you Yanks are short of cash you know where to look.

Greece's problem is probably an indicator of the world economy. The US itself has a national debt of about $17 trillion, but it's not suffering like Greece. IMO, this is due to the productivity of the US and the potential productivity for years to come. As such, many countries are willing to buy American bonds which in turn help to finance the government expenditures, including the payments for interests of previous bonds. Obviously, this trend can't go on forever. And the American public will have to fix this problem sooner than later. Unfortunately, Greece has no choice in the matter. They don't want to pay the debts because it would drastically affect their standard of living. IMO, the EU leaders would have to adopt a Marshall Plan for Greece which is similar to what the Americans did for the European countries after WWII. If not, other countries in Europe, such as Italy, Spain and Portugal, could fall in the same trap of financial insolvency. With that scenario, a world economic depression could follow just as well. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, s3raphita@... wrote : Greece has decisively rejected the austerity package wanted by other EU members.

Nope, all the bailout did was slap a band aid on the problem to delay the inevitable. A lot of economists have said the bailout should not have occurred.

If our national debt problem is not solved, the US could be in the same situation as Greece. Our current presidential candidates should address this problem.

We had a 32 year old woman shot dead on the Embarcadero the other evening. They caught the guy who did it and he was a Mexican who had been deported 5 times already and had felony convictions. Apparently he just decided to shoot somebody. And I bet he used an unregistered gun so gun laws aren't going to help in these situations. Nor would security theater. We've also had a couple of shooting down the road from me on the freeway. They don't know who did those. Maybe it was the same guy.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Strange Southern Behavior
HK has been around for years and knows both sides of the story. There were
quite a few black Confederate soldiers and most fought in integrated regiments,
unlike northerner black troops who were segregated. I saw a video last week of
a young black fellow who refused to condemn the flag.His great grandfather
fought for the Confederacy and his family received a Confederate pension after
the war. Most bitterness between blacks and whites in the south was a result of
reconstruction efforts by *Republicans* using racial divide and conquer tactics
to politically subjugate white southerners and Democrats. The Jim Crow south
was the result of the backlash. But you should know this , coming from SC.
Unfortunately, the victors in a war write the history and is always written to
justify their victory.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Greece votes NO
The world would have fallen into an economic depression without the bailout back then. If our national debt problem is not solved, the US could be in the same situation as Greece. Our current presidential candidates should address this problem. So far, nobody has come up with a viable solution. Rand Paul has proposed a tax reduction plan. But this would only increase the debt problem if nothing else is done. The obvious followup is to reduce government spending to fit the government income. This would mean that many government programs will have to be cut off. For obvious reasons, it would not be the military. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, noozguru@... wrote : Good for Greece.

These so-called famous people do not know what they're saying. They merely parrot what others are saying and are basing their ideas on emotions in order to be perceived as cool or hep to the ways of the world. In the scientific world, scientists are finding out, at the quantum level, that the objective world paradigm does not exist. IOW, the entire universe is coming out of Nothing, which is the unified field. Otherwise, scientists are forced to say that the universe created itself.

I suspect much of this is security theater and unnecessary. They could do it more covertly given our technology. I think they want to condition us to live like we're in a Stalag. We had a 32 year old woman shot dead on the Embarcadero the other evening. They caught the guy who did it and he was a Mexican who had been deported 5 times already and had felony convictions. Apparently he just decided to shoot somebody. And I bet he used an unregistered gun so gun laws aren't going to help in these situations. Nor would security theater. We've also had a couple of shooting down the road from me on the freeway. They don't know who did those. Maybe it was the same guy.

I deleted my post as I tend not to have any photos I have taken remain on the Internet in a public space for very long. I live about a 60 mile drive out of the City, and tend to avoid going into the City unless I have to. Normally I drive to the Metro North Train Station in Brewster (and at my age the round trip costs about $18.50), which actually costs less that the total cost of driving, though it takes longer. Parking is expensive in New York unless you hunt around. I have medical appointments on Monday. As I get older these appointments seem to be increasing in frequency. My vehicle is about 15 years old and I need to take it in for repairs, the exhaust system needs patching (I hope) as there are some holes in it and my SO is complaining about fumes, she is very sensitive to industrial fumes even though she thinks nothing of asphyxiating me with smoke particles from incense. The Cloisters was interesting. That day I was there, I went with a local photo club. The museum gave me temporary permission to use a tripod so I was able to get shots in darker areas until my camera died. I used my SO's camera for the rest of the day. I think that camera died a few months later too. Once again thanks for the invite, but it takes a lot of pressure to get me to go into New York City.

[FairfieldLife] Re: Greece votes NO
Re Good for Greece.: Maybe. But the $350 billion (equivalent) that Britain in 1934 (population then approx 43 million) owed the US and defaulted on had paid for the country to fight a world war! Greece (population 11 million) owes $330 billion. The Greeks seem to have pissed the money against the wall. Whatever happens about debt relief or write-offs the Greeks will have to get grips with their chronic tax evasion and business-unfriendly environment.

One article discussing the crisis mentioned that Britain once defaulted on its debt to the USA. I'd never heard of that one but it turns out that in 1934 Britain defaulted on war debts to the USA worth about $350 billion in today’s money. So virtually the same amount! Most people think we have paid the debt off, but we haven’t. So if you Yanks are short of cash you know where to look.
