OK, you're a TM Raja. You've paid your dues (a million bucks), and now
you're one of the sovereigns of the Global Country of World Peace.

Not only that, you get a major perk, in that -- contrary to the TM

Ordinary, run-of-the-mill, peon-level TM teachers still can't wear
beards. You're special, and not just because of the robes and the Burger

Jason, I agree that the universe is dynamic and ever changing. I would add that 
dynamic balance is the ideal. How about dynamic egalitarianism? And maybe 
that's the phase we're in now. Is sameness equality? I see your point about 
clothing differences. But I also think that FORCED sameness is not beneficial 
for human growth. I was thinking of countries wherein both men and women wear 
long robes or both men and women wear loose pants and long tops.

Ted Cruz  Is Filibustering ObamaCare Right Now.

Ted Cruz took the Senate floor at 2:40 PM (EST) and is  filibustering 
ObamaCare.  

In his opening  remarks, Cruz stated: I intend to speak  until I can no 
longer stand.  

Cruz is standing up  for us and we must stand up for him RIGHT NOW...  

It's crunch time and  _we  must rise up and flood the Senate with calls and

You read that  right... top Republicans  anonymously told Wallace to

Victims Are Not  Hostage-Takers.

Liberal Senator Chuck Schumer of New York recently told the media  that 
Cruz and Lee and Paul were holding the American people hostage. Specifically, 
Schumer  said: Don't hold millions of Americans  hostage. And that's what 
the Republican right-wing is doing in the  House and Senate.  

Such a statement is  tantamount to hearing the man who just broke into your 
home  castigate you for holding a gun to his head. Seriously... is that  
not what Schumer and Obama and Reid are doing?  

Didn't the House of  Representatives just pass a Continuing Resolution that 
gives  Barack Obama EVERYTHING he wants except for further  funding of 
ObamaCare, and is it not Barack Obama and Harry Reid  who are essentially 
pouting like recalcitrant children and saying:  Give us ObamaCare funding too, 
or 
we're  going to shut down the government?  

ObamaCare is a  train-wreck. Even Harry Reid and Barack Obama admit it. So 
why are  they blackmailing the nation into spending one more thin dime on  
this train-wreck? Wouldn't it be prudent for them to simply say:  Let's not 
spend any more money on  ObamaCare until we can figure out how to fix it?  

Yes, even to those  who support ObamaCare, defunding it temporarily would 
be the  prudent thing to do, but Schumer and Obama and Reid are not  
prudent... Instead, they're pouting children.

Not only that, you get a major perk, in that -- contrary to the TM rules and

[FairfieldLife] Invincible Defense Technology Challenge

2013-09-25 Thread Michael Jackson
I dunno how they got the article in there but the proven technology they 
speak of is absolute bullshit. As I have stated here before, the people who run 
the governments of this world may be greedy and corrupt, but in the main most 
of them are not stupid, not nearly as stupid as TM True Believers who believe 
this crap.

If this IDT (ah! they got a new name for it!) really worked, every small nation 
on earth would mandate practice of TM and TM Sidhi program for every citizen 
over the age of 13 to keep themselves safe. All these African nations who are 
cutting each others throats would implement this IDT in a heartbeat and the 
entire sub-continent would be at peace. But they don't and it not due to 
political reasons - its due to the fact that TM Sidhi practice doesn't do a 
damn thing to the collective war mongering of the world. It just makes its 
practitioners feel warm and fuzzy.

But OK, let's say it is real and it does work. Forget the old bullshit claims 
from Lebanon in the 1980s. Lets put it to a real test.

You pick out any Third World country. Fill it with as many yogic fliers as you 
like, get 10,000, get 30 or 40,000. Get a million if you can find them. Then go 
over to Somalia and find the poorest, hungriest, most desperate men you can 
find, the ones who have been making a living as pirates who are now out of work 
due to the crack down various nations are making on the Somali pirates.

Take about 20,000 of these guys and arm them with AR 15's or whatever kind of 
weapons you can lay your hands on, put these guys on the border of the now 
invincible nation and tell them they can go in and take anything and everything 
they want with no repercussions - the US will guarantee the deal - and turn 
them loose. If you have a million yogic fliers, the Somalis would then politely 
thank you for the guns, sell them and send the money back to their parents in 
Somalia.

But in reality your Invincible Nation would now be owned and operated by 20,000 
no longer hungry or horny Somali men.

Been listening to the Old Testament (Tanakh: torah, nevi'im, ketuvim) for a 
couple
of hours now.

One of the main reasons whyClassical Hebrew, more than modern Hebrew, sounds 
somewhat like Arabic (at least to me), might well be gemination:

In phonetics, gemination or consonant elongation happens when a spoken 
consonant is pronounced for an audibly longer period of time than a short 
consonant. Gemination is distinct from stress and may appear independently of 
it. Gemination literally means twinning, and is from the same Latin root as 
Gemini.
Consonant length is distinctive in some languages, for instance Arabic, Danish, 
Estonian, Finnish, Classical Hebrew, Hungarian, Catalan, Italian, Japanese, 
Latin, Russian, Slovak and Tamil. Most languages (includingEnglish) do not have 
distinctive long consonants. Vowel length is distinctive in more languages than 
consonant length, although several languages feature both independently (as in 
Japanese, Finnish, and Estonian), or have interdependent vowel and consonant 
length (as in Norwegian and Swedish).

making mistake after mistake, to the point of calling me a liar, then claiming 
I wasn't balanced. I observed that she hadn't apologized for all the mistakes 
or the accusations, suggesting that this didn't exactly say much for her own

Steve assumed, incorrectly and nastily, that I was demanding an apology; I set 
him straight, but Barry only read Steve's post and decided to pile on.

However, on the subject of theoretical apologies, what does it say about 
someone who can notapologize? Or who thinks apologies are never warranted? My 
theory: that kind of person is incapable of apologizing because their ego is so 
bloated while at the same time fragile. That wouldn't be you, would it

Exactly.

Hint: That's when it's used as a noun. I don't want you to embarrass yourself

I posted a link to a funny article in

HuffPost about Whole Foods. Only a few people
here commented (thanks) on how funny it was. 

Instead, within six posts Judy had adopted 
an argumentative tone in a thread about a 
funny article, and within eleven posts she
was calling someone a liar. At last count 
there were 137 posts in the thread, *most* 
of them about the tempest in a pisspot she 
created and then refused to let die. 

Can you say shifting context? Can you say
Doing it for your own petty, self-serving
reasons? I think you can.

Ted Cruz Is Filibustering ObamaCare
Right Now.

Ted Cruz took the Senate floor at 2:40 PM (EST) and is
filibustering ObamaCare.

In his opening remarks, Cruz stated: I intend to speak until I
can no longer stand.

Cruz is standing up for us and we must stand up for him RIGHT
NOW...

It's crunch time and
we must rise up and flood the Senate with calls and faxes (

 )

Who Let The Dogs Out?

Oh yes... top Republicans are viciously and anonymously attacking
Ted Cruz for standing strong against ObamaCare.

Make no mistake about it,
they know that grassroots pressure to defund ObamaCare can
prevail. That's why they're attacking Cruz ( 
http://lr.lastresistance.com/ga/click/2-6338993-23-3840-7362-90907-02b2e3636e-b0f0a5f8e7
 ). It's a full-frontal assault. Even Fox News commentator Chris
Wallace took notice.

On Fox News Sunday, Wallace noted: This has been one of the
strangest weeks I've ever had in Washington. As soon as we listed
Ted Cruz as our guest this week, I got unsolicited research and
questions, not from Democrats, but from top Republicans to hammer
Cruz.

You read that right... top Republicans anonymously told Wallace
to
hammer Cruz ... these anonymous RINOs tried to use the media to
do their dirty work and
hammer Cruz for attempting to force them to bend to the will of
the American people.

And Wallace isn't the only one taking notice. New York Times
columnist David Brooks said, with a hint of glee:
I think they [Republican leaders] are going to have to have a
confrontation and they're going to have to show [Cruz] who's
boss.

Well...
we say it's time to let these self-proclaimed leaders in the
Senate know who's really boss... Let them know that you're the
boss and the boss wants them to defund ObamaCare...

Victims Are Not Hostage-Takers.

Liberal Senator Chuck Schumer of New York recently told the media
that Cruz and Lee and Paul were holding the American people
hostage. Specifically, Schumer said:
Don't hold millions of Americans hostage. And that's what the
Republican right-wing is doing in the House and Senate.

Such a statement is tantamount to hearing the man who just broke
into your home castigate you for holding a gun to his head.
Seriously... is that not what Schumer and Obama and Reid are
doing?

Didn't the House of Representatives just pass a Continuing
Resolution that gives Barack Obama
EVERYTHING he wants except for further funding of ObamaCare, and
is it not Barack Obama and Harry Reid who are essentially pouting
like recalcitrant children and saying:
Give us ObamaCare funding too, or we're going to shut down the
government?

ObamaCare is a train-wreck. Even Harry Reid and Barack Obama
admit it. So why are they blackmailing the nation into spending
one more thin dime on this train-wreck? Wouldn't it be prudent
for them to simply say:
Let's not spend any more money on ObamaCare until we can figure
out how to fix it?

Yes, even to those who support ObamaCare, defunding it
temporarily would be the prudent thing to do, but Schumer and
Obama and Reid are not prudent... Instead, they're pouting
children.

Barack Obama recently said as much when he confessed to a crowd
of supporters that the opponents of ObamaCare are
trying to mess with me.

No, Mr. Obama, it's not about you... it's about the American
people and
the American people don't capitulate to extortion... or
thuggery... or childish tantrums... or tyranny... and it's time
for our United States Senators to hear that message loud and
clear. To the American people, anything short of the defunding
of ObamaCare is unacceptable (

Nothing like you have seen before. The mainsail is not a fabric sail,

The US fucked up, and cheated, during the Cup World Series, so they 
have been docked two races in this final. Kiwis have 8 and the US, 4, 
with 9 races needed to win. NZ already won two days ago, but they 
timed out on the course (have to run it in 40 minutes, or less), and 
the race was cancelled, with them a mile from the finish line (and 
leading Oracle by a mile).


Yesterday, we had our first rain in months, and they cancelled the

[FairfieldLife] iPod?

2013-09-25 Thread Richard J. Williams
In the old days I used a Toshiba cassette player and a Sony Walkman to 
listen to music tapes.
Back in 1979 it cost me $100 and it was heavy to carry around,

One guy I know, the web master at the local community college, got a 
little device so he could
listen to Good Morning America with ear phones on his way to work. He 
lives all of 10 miles
away from the campus! He's got a Honda Civic and his wife drives a 
Toyota 4Runner - he's big
and she's little and she has to drive 25 miles to get to work. LoL!

Another guy I know, a janitor at the school, has a SanDisk Sansa Clip+ 4 
GB and has a subscription
to Rhapsody ($30). One professor got a Microsoft Zune for listening to 
audio books. Go figure.

Rita and I have owned iPods for years and sometime we use iTunes - she's 
got an iPod Nano and
I've got an iPod Classic. I used to have an iPod Touch when I worked at 
the community college.

The Touch with it's larger screen is better when you want to view TV 
movies like 'Will  Grace' or
'Modern Family'. LoL!

These gadgets are fun to use when exercising at the YMCA on the 
treadmill or on the elliptic
when you're not watching the built-in HD screen. Or, when you're waiting 
in line at the doctor's
office or on a plane to Detroit.

And, when I'm cruising in the car I can plug the iPod into the Aux jack 
and listen to a vast
collection of tunes - no more fumbling with discs! But, most of the time 
I'm listening to Rush on
the radio anyway. LoL!

When I'm at my workstation at home I like to tune in to Pandora and use 
some nice speakers
with surround sound like the 5.1 Logitech.

Before we go on the next road trip to CA I'll be thinking about 
subscribing to satellite radio so
I can listen to Howard Stern. LoL!

Tips:

If you're going on a plane consider getting noise-cancelling headphones 
to listen on your device,
whether it's an iPod or a laptop.

If you plan on getting a personal listening device consider using mp3 
for your file format.

If you want a large library of tunes consider getting a device that has 
a large hard drive inside.

I listened to a bit of his rant yesterday.  The Tea Party element is 
complaining about being charged for Obamacare by being forced to buy 
insurance.  So why the hell didn't they support Single Payer?  Why not 
have what tax dollars you pay take care of your health care?  I'm out 
of  the picture on this one because I'm on Medicare.  But perhaps Single 
Payer should just be Medicare for everybody.


We used to have non-profit health care in this country.  Even many of 
the health insurance companies back in the day were non-profit.  But 
then the joy boys of capitalism saw something new to hijack and 
exploit.  And we got screwed.


BTW, speaking of Medicare, I just sold a house that I held title on but 
it was really paid for by my relatives who lived in it.  A few months 
back when I contacted my accountant for the tax consequences she grimly 
mentioned the 3.8% Medicare tax.  I didn't think that was so bad because 
I assumed it was only on the capital gains.  Nope, it was on the sale 
price of the house.  That doesn't seem right to me and reading up it was 
one of the items hidden in the health care bill.  That's one thing that 
really may need to be challenged.

[FairfieldLife] Surviving Bar Jokes, was Surviving Whole Foods

2013-09-25 Thread Richard J. Williams

Have you heard the one about the hayseed going into a bar?

A hayseed cowboy driving a pickup truck goes into a bar with a bucket
of manure in one hand, a pistol in his right hand, and a cat on his left
shoulder.

Orders a drink. Then another. And another.

All of a sudden, the hayseed cowboy puts the bucket up on the bar,
draws his gun, and shoots the bucket - shit flies all over the place!

The cat jumps down and runs like hell out the door, with the cowboy
running after it.

Next night, the hick cowboy walks into the bar and orders a drink.

The bartender says: This one's on the house if you tell me what's up
with the bucket and that cat.

The hayseed says: Well, I always wanted to drive down to a bar and
shoot the shit and chase some pussy like you guys!

LoL!

would have assumed you would have gotten that and had been paying 
attention to the pensions promised during boom times to police and

those pensions thinking it was nice to have but really not that

You know I don't  like Obamacare either but for a different reason

is a good example of why we are having fewer full time jobs. Work 
thirty hours or more and your employer has to provide insurance which 
they may or may not be able to afford. When 10-20 million people

Nothing wrong with Social Security.  But there is something wrong 
with foolishly promising people a pension that pays the same as when 
they were working.  What were they smoking when they did that? it 
actually isn't feasible.  Times were booming and the idiots you 
elected (regardless of the aisle they sat on) made those promises.  
The idea when you get older is you probably don't need and often want 
as much.  You don't need a full pension.When there are no longer full 
time jobs for everyone then you have to divvy up the jobs.  But that 
won't work for employers.  So what are you going to do, Mike?  Tell

[FairfieldLife] Hayseed Jokes

A guy driving a car carrier truck at night has his headlights go out - so he
pulls over and climbs up to the car above the cab and turns on the car's
headlights - then he drives on down the road.

A hayseed driving an old pickup up ahead suddenly swerves off the road
into a corn field and the hayseed jumps out and starts running like hell
into the field.

So, the trucker pulls over to the side of the road and yells: What's going
on - you alright?

thought that, if you were half as wide as your are tall, then I'd better 
just

[FairfieldLife] Ishvara - The Transcendental Person

2013-09-25 Thread Richard J. Williams
So, since Krishna is the Absolute, he is in fact 'indescribably 
different', (Acyenta
Bheda Bheda). At first this seems to be non-sensical, but if you think 
about it,
it makes more sense, and if you remember what MMY said in CBG 1-6.

According to MMY, Lord Krishna is the 'Transcendental Person', mentioned in
Bhagavad Gita. That means that He is beyond, or transcendental to, 
phenomenon
- the relative world of change.

Many of the Vedantists who composed the Vedic literature were dualists or
qualified-dualists, and others were mixed dualists and some were
qualified-dualists. While all the Upanishadic thinkers were 
transcendentalists,
not all of them ascribed to the Advaita philosophy, non-dualism.

In fact, there is good reason to doubt the Advaita of the Adi 
Shankaracharya.
Because many of these good fellows (sadhus) do not ascribe to the illusion
theory, 'maya' proposed by the Adi. According to Sri Aurobindo, this
Transcendental Person is not false - He is real, not an illusion.

Isha Upanishad:

The face of Truth is covered with a brilliant
golden lid; that do thou remove O'Fosterer,
for the law of the Truth, for sight. - Isha v 2

The term 'Isha' refers to Ishvara, the cosmic person, Paramatman or 
Brahman.
Ishvara is the supreme controller.

Sri Aurobindo wrote that the Ultimate Reality is two fulls - 200% of 
each. One
who knows nescience side-by-side with the transcendent, can pass beyond
repeated birth and death, and can enjoy the full blessings of immortality.

They are strong for labor--but they are stronger for restricting labor's 
rights. They favor minimum wage--the smaller the minimum wage the better. They 
endorse educational opportunity for all--but they won't spend money for 
teachers or for schools. They think modern medical care and hospitals are 
fine--for people who can afford them. They consider electrical power a great

I listened to a bit of his rant yesterday.  The Tea Party element is 
complaining about being charged for Obamacare by being forced to buy

not have what tax dollars you pay take care of your health care?  I'm 
out of  the picture on this one because I'm on Medicare.  But perhaps 
Single Payer should just be Medicare for everybody.


We used to have non-profit health care in this country.  Even many of 
the health insurance companies back in the day were non-profit.  But 
then the joy boys of capitalism saw something new to hijack and 
exploit.  And we got screwed.


BTW, speaking of Medicare, I just sold a house that I held title on 
but it was really paid for by my relatives who lived in it.  A few 
months back when I contacted my accountant for the tax consequences 
she grimly mentioned the 3.8% Medicare tax.  I didn't think that was 
so bad because I assumed it was only on the capital gains.  Nope, it 
was on the sale price of the house.  That doesn't seem right to me 
and reading up it was one of the items hidden in the health care 
bill.  That's one thing that really may need to be challenged.

Nothing has changed in 60 years.
 
“Republicans approve of the American farmer, but they are willing to help him 
go broke. They stand four-square for the American home--but not for housing. 
They are strong for labor--but they are stronger for restricting labor's 
rights. They favor minimum wage--the smaller the minimum wage the better. They 
endorse educational opportunity for all--but they won't spend money for 
teachers or for schools. They think modern medical care and hospitals are 
fine--for people who can afford them. They consider electrical power a great 
blessing--but only when the private power companies get their rake-off. They 
think American standard of living is a fine thing--so long as it doesn't spread 
to all the people. And they admire of Government of the United States so much 
that they would like to buy it.”

The US is bankrupt and up to it's eyeballs or above in debt.  We are 
owned by China and Saudi Arabia.  The country should have collapsed by 
now.  They tried a tactic at the recent G20 meeting to keep the dollar 
alive.  That may not work and if it does then as Paul Krugman said it 
will put American economy in a permenent state of depression.

This act is getting pretty old.  By now,  most Americans realize the 
futility of these politicians' efforts.   If the federal government is 
not shut down, I would hazard to guess that they will pass a partial

kidding?

you, do you have an interest in Maharishi and that mystic's influence? Today, 
on a short road trip through Iowa, I encountered a cemetery and abandoned Dome

Better yet, lets get 10,000 flyers in Fairfield and turn 10,000 armed Somalis

I dunno how they got the article in there but the proven technology they 
speak of is absolute bullshit. As I have stated here before, the people who run 
the governments of this world may be greedy and corrupt, but in the main most 
of them are not stupid, not nearly as stupid as TM True Believers who believe 
this crap.

If this IDT (ah! they got a new name for it!) really worked, every small nation 
on earth would mandate practice of TM and TM Sidhi program for every citizen 
over the age of 13 to keep themselves safe. All these African nations who are 
cutting each others throats would implement this IDT in a heartbeat and the 
entire sub-continent would be at peace. But they don't and it not due to 
political reasons - its due to the fact that TM Sidhi practice doesn't do a 
damn thing to the collective war mongering of the world. It
 just makes its practitioners feel warm and fuzzy.

But OK, let's say it is real and it does work. Forget the old bullshit claims 
from Lebanon in the 1980s. Lets put it to a real test.

You pick out any Third World country. Fill it with as many yogic fliers as you 
like, get 10,000, get 30 or 40,000. Get a million if you can find them. Then go 
over to Somalia and find the poorest, hungriest, most desperate men you can 
find, the ones who have been making a living as pirates who are now out of work 
due to the crack down various nations are making on the Somali pirates.

Take about 20,000 of these guys and arm them with AR 15's or whatever kind of 
weapons you can lay your hands on, put these guys on the border of the now 
invincible nation and tell them they can go in and take anything and everything 
they want with no repercussions - the US will guarantee the deal - and turn 
them loose. If you have a million yogic fliers, the Somalis would
 then politely thank you for the guns, sell them and send the money back to 
their parents in Somalia.

But in reality your Invincible Nation would now be owned and operated by 20,000 
no longer hungry or horny Somali men.
