 How do you permanently lose money in a wire transfer? Is this

 Someone somewhere knows what really happened with the wire

 course and with the Million Dollar Course Money. It would be nice 
to know the truth, and if 
 we are lucky someone will write about it someday when it feel safe 
to do so.


I'd love to know:

1) where the money went;

2) how the people who donated the money feel about it;

3) why it's 25 years later and this is the first I've heard about it.

  The money was supposed to have been lost in a wire transfer to

  I bought the story that it was just lost in the transfer at the

  were hurt by the loss, not the movement.

I don't believe it's a function of the borrowing but I certainly 
think we're both more safer and prosperous.

Most economic indicators are incredibly strong.

Safety: no one has attacked us since 9/11. Bush's response was 
perfect: he attacked Afghanistan and then he attacked Iraq. Now the 
evil ones know that, justified or not, the USA will attack anyone 
with the slightest hint of responsibility for hitting the USA. 

And this is the ONLY language that bullies understand.

Bush deserves only kudos for this.

However, his spending is horrific and his other policies are, too.





 
 It must horrify the Republicans. You'd think for all 
 the propping up that's going on, they wouldn't have 
 to be worried about the coming mid-term elections. 
 If you can't buy a happy electorate for a trillion

 would be verified. I remember when the money being wired 
over to
 India was supposedly stolen, so we all ended up living in 
Tents
 instead of in hotels.



Could you elaborate on this?

When did this happen and what were the circumstances?
   
   The information was given to me when I questioned a fulltime 
teacher at the time who 
  was 
   in a position to know. I believe the info is reliable. I do 
not know the details, but I 
 recall 
   being told that of the amount invested, about half was lost, 
leaving a lot less than 
   expected. I think this all occurred around 2001-2002, but it 
was during the year 
  following 
   the Big Million Dollar Course.
  
  Additional clarification: all this about the loss of the money 
and the yagyas was waht I 
 was 
  told when I asked where all the money had gone. This teacher 
was telling me what they 
  had heard from international about the pundiit project and 
money. But I agree, it is 
 more 
  likely that the money was lost to graft and relatives rather 
than the stock market. Of 
  course, the yagya story is all baloney, since the TMO would not 
pay millions in advance 
 to 
  jyotishi to do ygayas for the next 40 years for people.
 
 
 Dont' know about yagyas but a LOT of people lost their shirts 
during the dotcom bust.


Most who lost their shirts were people who MADE incredible paper 
profits on stocks that increased in value at a rediculous rates. 
Sure, some people most certainly invested original dollars in these 
dot.com's when the price was high and then saw it go down to almost 
nothing, but, hey, they were trying to make a quick buck, took a 
chance and lost. tough shit. If you can't stand the heat, get out 
of the kitchen.

 I'm fascinated that you like this film, Barry, because its

I like it because it's one of the only films
that has portrayed government the way it pretty

   above, it lists a bunch of TM nonprofits' tax returns, and it 
shows
   the Global Country had assets of $214 million as of 2003
  
 
 
  So the Kaplans measly $16 million could not have had a make or 
break
  influence on the pundits' future.
 
 
 
 
 Assets does not necessarily mean cash in the bank, I would guess. 
 Maharishi University is listed as having $42 million in assets, 
but 
 it's doubtful the school has that much cash -- it probably means 
the 
 value of campus land and bldgs -- so the fact that the global 
country 
 has $214 mil in assets probably also includes holdings like 
Livingston 
 Manor and so on,




And assets like buildings are listed under their DEPRECIATED value, 
not their fair market value...and fair market value is almost always 
exponentially more.

Land I believe is listed at cost value (I don't think you can 
depreciate land) and that, again, is going to have a fair market 
value almost always more than the book value.







 in addition to cash and investments -- also not all 
 the cash on hand and investments are directed toward the pundits 
in 
 India, so the Kaplans 16 mil was probably critical in maintaining 
the 
 pundit facilities there:

Actually, Statement 5 lists the lions share of expenses, including 15 million paid to the 
Brahmanada Saraswati Trust in the Channel Islands. The fund looks like a mortgage with 5% 
interest.

If they couldn't make their mortgage without dipping into capital, that would be a show-
stopper, for sure.

 Yes, but Condellezza said, that she definitely did NOT want to be

   I don't know the source, but it's the whole film.
   I saw it originally in French, and wanted to hear
   the at-times-overly-wordy dialogue in its original

The actual DVD is scheduled for August 1st and there 
is a two disk collectors edition too.
   
   It's far from a great film, but it's certainly
   interesting, and it certainly captures a certain
   aspect of the times we live in and what may have
   to be done to have done with them. In an era in
   which elections are stolen and votes are not
   counted, it may well be past vote the bastids 
   out time and may be verging on throw them out
   using any method that works time.
  
  I'm fascinated that you like this film, Barry, because its 
  philosophy is SO very NRAish and pro-individual and anti-
  government. 
 
 Not to mention simplistic and pompous. Dude,
 it was based on a comic book. :-) 
 
  Big hit on libertarian and anarcho-capitalist websites.
 
 I like it because it's one of the only films
 that has portrayed government the way it pretty
 much really *is* these days, as a dictatorship
 still posing as a democracy. I'm afraid it's
 going to take Americans a couple of more mock
 elections to realize that the elections are not
 having any effect and the same people are still 
 ruling them.


Well, if you're a Democrat you should LIKE what the Republicans have 
been doing because they've been acting like classic Democrats: tax, 
spend, increase government programs.

No, actually, it's the most pertinent question yet.

The problem with America is the *same* problem we
have all discussed ad nauseum here with regard to
the TM movement. People are much more attached to
their fantasies of things than they are to the
reality. They want to believe in the myth of the
TM movement, and deny for years or decades the
things about it that they don't want to see. 

It's the same with voting irregularities, and the
loss of civil rights, and the rigging of elections.
Americans are *attached* to their myth, in a way
that the people of most other countries are not.
They simply cannot bring themselves to admit that
many of the mythical qualities of America the
Beautiful that they were brought up with are 
simply not true. So they just put their intellects
on cruise control and hope for the best, while
people who have no such illusions *take advantage*
of the myths to control them.

Global warming *will* have to get so bad that the
people are up to their asses in garbage before
anyone really does anything about it. That is the
nature of the beast. Elections will continue to
be stolen until in one of them a Republican corpse 
is elected instead of a live Democrat. People are
just *not* going to stop believing in the myths
that sustain them. They will believe in them 
despite any evidence.

I really don't know how all of this is going to
turn out, but...duh...that's one of the main 
reasons I live in France and not the US. The
place is in for some very hard times, and its
citizenry is so locked into cult myth-think
that they're really not about to get off their
butts and DO something about it. To do so means
that they have to admit that the myths are not
true, and I think that we've all seen how likely
that is, just by watching the vagaries of the
TM movement.

[FairfieldLife] My caption contest entries

2006-06-03 Thread shempmcgurk




As I've mentioned here on this forum before, I often enter the New Yorker's weekly online caption contest where they supply the drawing and you supply the caption. They only let you enter once but I usually have more than one idea so I often use a friend's name and email address to enter.
Anyway, for those that are interested, my two entries for the above drawing are:
"You and your damned metamorphosis. Last night your pupa gave me a full body chafe. Tonight, I'm on top."
...and...
"I'm post-menopausal. You're in the throes of metamorphosis. And George Bush can't balance the budget."

[FairfieldLife] Re: Laura Moves?

2006-06-03 Thread Robert Gimbel



 
And another story the tabloids and talk shows have been 
 talking 
   about 
today is the rumor that Laura Bush has taken up residency in 
 the 
Mayflower Hotel because she found out that Dubya and Condi 
 have 
  been 
having an affair.
  http://libertypost.org/cgi-bin/readart.cgi?ArtNum=144063
   
  
   
   Oh, that's precious.
   
   Of course, up to about a week ago Condi's greatest fan has been 
  Laura 
   who has been touting her more than ever for becoming the 
 Republican 
   candidate for president in 2008...
   
   
  Yes, but Condellezza said, that she definitely did NOT want to be 
  Pres..  On the other hand, she did have a 'Fruedian Slip', in 
which she 
  characterized herself as the President's wife/International 
  Representative..Secretary of State...Wonder Woman, with really 
 nice 
  legs...
  So...
 
 Name me just ONE person who eventually became either President or a 
 candidate for PResident who, at this stage in the ballgame, 
admitted 
 to wanting to become President.

One shining example I can think of is: Ronald Reagan- seems he was 
running for President forever...
 
 Not Hillary, for example...

  So you're pretty safe IMO in naming anything

  the minute you do, the mind starts excluding

  I think that's the reason some teachers refused

  such lists.
 
 Not necessarily. If the mind is the entity trying to 
 choose attributes of enlightenment, then it will fail 
 every time.

Exactly. Which is why I agree with Buddha and 
the other teachers who never get into the name
game and pinpoint attributes. They are not
doing their students a favor when they do so.
They are, in fact, contributing to their 
ignorance.

 Enlightenment is that feeling all of us have had where 
 we're just 'in the flow', effortless, and it either 
 lasts as short, intermittent experiences of 'being in 
 the flow', or longer times, or a constant, fully 
 intergrated with 'chop wood, carry water'.

While I agree with the spirit of what you say,
as usual you have oversimplified things. You list
only two possibilities, when there are billions.

  No, actually, it's the most pertinent question yet.

 Both sides are guilty of just about anything you can mention. The

Agreed.

That's why i stopped reading RFK jr's article...it was obviously a 
slanted hatchet job against one party. Biased, unobjective.




 
 Bit of trivia: gerrymandering is named in honor of a Democratic

 governor who created a salaMANDER-like district to support his

About 20 years ago my bank accidently put about $5,000.00 into my

About a year afterwards, I went to them for a loan which they

I didn't make it up on the spot.

I made it up about 5 minutes BEFORE I wrote it. What kind of 
scumbag do you think I am?

Seriously, it is a sort of made-up metaphor but it DOES reflect the 
reality. The sun is the source of ALL warmth on the earth, both 
directly and indirectly (indirectly through the burning of fossil 
fuels). The sun does NOT radiate its heat in a steady, non-
fluctuating stream. It fluctuates in its radiation through time, 
both the short and long term.

Obviously, the burning of fossil fuels puts warmth in the 
environment. That's an indesputable fact.

But how does that compare with the fluctuations of the warmth 
emitted by the sun?

The currect alleged increases in warming are, I suggest to you, 
99.99% due to the sun's fluctuations and NOT by the burning of 
fossil fuels.

And that's not ME saying it, it's MOST scientists.

That's why almost 20,000 scientists around the year 2000 signed the 
Oregon Petition demanding the U.S. government NOT sign onto the 
Kyoto Treaty and declaring that there WAS no scientific consensus 
over global warming. See:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oregon_Petition

[FairfieldLife] He Who Laughs Last Department

2006-06-03 Thread TurquoiseB



Great story, great news. The media CRUCIFIED this poor guy,
printing every lie fed to them by government agencies anxious
to pin the blame for incompetent security at Los Alamos on
a person of Chinese descent. 


News Organizations Agree to Pay Former Scientist
By MARK SHERMAN, AP

WASHINGTON (June 3) - A former scientist at a nuclear weapons 
laboratory who was once suspected of being a spy has settled 
his privacy lawsuit and will receive $1.6 million from the 
government and five news organizations.

Under the settlement announced Friday, Wen Ho Lee, a Taiwanese-
American, will receive $895,000 from the government for legal 
fees and associated taxes in the 6 1/2-year-old lawsuit. Lee 
had accused the Energy and Justice departments of violating 
his privacy rights by leaking information that he was under 
investigation as a spy for China.

The Associated Press and four other news organizations have 
agreed to pay Lee $750,000 as part of the settlement, which 
ends contempt of court proceedings against five reporters who 
refused to disclose the sources of their stories about the 
espionage investigation.

Lee said of the settlement: We are hopeful that the agreements 
reached today will send the strong message that government 
officials and journalists must and should act responsibly 
in discharging their duties and be sensitive to the privacy 
interests afforded to every citizen of this country.

The payment by AP, The New York Times, the Los Angeles Times, 
The Washington Post and ABC is the only one of its kind in 
recent memory, and perhaps ever, legal and media experts said.

The companies said they agreed to the sum to forestall jail 
sentences for their reporters, even larger payments in the 
form of fines and the prospect of revealing confidential 
sources. The companies and their reporters were not defendants 
in the privacy lawsuit.

We were reluctant to contribute anything to this settlement, 
but we sought relief in the courts and found none, the 
companies said. Given the rulings of the federal courts in 
Washington and the absence of a federal shield law, we decided 
this was the best course to protect our sources and to protect 
our journalists.

The statement noted that the accuracy of the reporting itself 
was not challenged.

The government agencies did not admit that they had violated 
Lee's privacy rights.

Betsy Miller, one of Lee's lawyers, said the payments show that 
both the government and the journalists knew that they had 
significant exposure had this case gone to trial.

Lee was fired from his job at the Los Alamos National Laboratory 
in New Mexico, but he was never charged with espionage. He was 
held in solitary confinement for nine months, then released in 
2000 after pleading guilty to mishandling computer files. A 
judge apologized for Lee's treatment.

Two federal judges held the reporters in contempt for refusing 
to reveal their sources to Lee. The journalists had argued that 
he could obtain the information elsewhere.

U.S. District Judge Rosemary Collyer signed an order Friday 
vacating the contempt proceedings against the reporters, H. 
Josef Hebert of The Associated Press, James Risen of The New 
York Times, Bob Drogin of the Los Angeles Times, Walter Pincus 
of The Washington Post, and Pierre Thomas, formerly of CNN 
and now working for ABC News.

CNN, in a separate statement, said it declined to join in the 
settlement because we had a philosophical disagreement over 
whether it was appropriate to pay money to Wen Ho Lee or 
anyone else to get out from under a subpoena.

 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oregon_Petition

>From that link -- puts the above in perspective

Criticism

The petition and its covering letter have been criticised [1].

The text of the petition is often misrepresented by its proponents as,
for example, over 17,000 scientists declare that global warming is a
lie with no scientific basis [2] whereas the petition itself only
speaks of catastrophic warming. Further, the covering letter, written
in the style of a contribution to PNAS, sent with the petition was
strongly criticised as designed to be deceptive by giving people the
impression that the article, which is full of half-truths, is a
reprint and has passed peer review, (Raymond Pierrehumbert,
atmospheric chemist at the University of Chicago). The National
Academy of Sciences issued a statement that the petition had nothing
to do with them.

As with the Leipzig declaration, the qualifications of the
signatories, and their agreement with the stated contents have been
questioned. The Scientific American took a sample of signatories and
reported

 Scientific American took a random sample of 30 of the 1,400
signatories claiming to hold a Ph.D. in a climate-related science. Of
the 26 we were able to identify in various databases, 11 said they
still agreed with the petition—one was an active climate researcher,
two others had relevant expertise, and eight signed based on an
informal evaluation. Six said they would not sign the petition today,
three did not remember any such petition, one had died, and five did
not answer repeated messages. Crudely extrapolating, the petition
supporters include a core of about 200 climate researchers – a
respectable number, though rather a small fraction of the
climatological community.

 I doubt that a 3 second solar flair has the same effect on our
environment
 as 1,000 years of burning fossil fuels. Show me a scientist who says
that.


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greenhouse_effect
The above gives a good overview of greenhouse effect dynamics --
solar, natural earth processes, and manmade. As well as the greenhouse
effect on mars and venus. (Providing perspective on rhetorical games
of claiming warming on venus proves that global warming on earth is
totally natural.)


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_warming

Provides an overview of natural and human induced warming from
greenhouse-effect dynamics.

The scientific opinion on climate change is that the average global
temperature has risen 0.6 ± 0.2 °C over the 20th century, and that it
is likely that most of the warming observed over the last 50 years is
attributable to human activities [1]. The increased volumes of carbon
dioxide and other greenhouse gases (GHGs) released by the burning of
fossil fuels, land clearing and agriculture, and other human
activities, are the primary sources of the human-induced component of
warming.

Observational sensitivity studies and climate models referenced by the
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) predict that global
temperatures may increase by between 1.4 and 5.8 °C between 1990 and
2100. 

...

The climate system varies both through natural, internal processes
as well as in response to variations in external forcing from both
human and non-human causes, including solar activity, volcanic
emissions, and greenhouse gases. Climatologists accept that the earth
has warmed recently, but the cause or causes of this change is more
controversial, especially outside the scientific community.

Adding carbon dioxide (CO2) or methane (CH4) to Earth's atmosphere,
with no other changes, will make the planet's surface warmer;
greenhouse gases create a natural greenhouse effect without which
temperatures on Earth would be an estimated 30 °C lower, and the Earth
uninhabitable. It is therefore not correct to say that there is a
debate between those who believe in and oppose the theory that
adding carbon dioxide or CH4 to the Earth's atmosphere will result in
warmer surface temperatures on Earth, absent indirect mitigating
effects. Rather, the debate is about what the net effect of the
addition of carbon dioxide and CH4 will be.

Due to the thermal inertia of the earth's oceans and slow responses of
other indirect effects, the Earth's current climate is not in
equilibrium with the forcing imposed by increased greenhouse gases.
Climate commitment studies indicate that, even if greenhouse gases
were stabilised at present day levels, a further warming of perhaps
0.5 °C to 1.0 °C would still occur.



The atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide and CH4 have
increased by 31% and 149% respectively above pre-industrial levels
since 1750. This is considerably higher than at any time during the
last 650,000 years, the period for which reliable data has been
extracted from ice cores. From less direct geological evidence it is
believed that carbon dioxide values this high were last attained 40
million years ago. About three-quarters of the anthropogenic emissions
of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere during the past 20 years is due to
fossil fuel burning. The rest is predominantly due to land-use change,
especially deforestation [5].

The longest continuous instrumental measurement of carbon dioxide
mixing ratios began in 1958 at Mauna Loa. Since then, the annually
averaged value has increased monotonically from 315 ppmv as shown by
the Keeling Curve. The concentration reached 376 ppmv in 2003. South
Pole records show similar growth [6]. The monthly measurements display
small seasonal oscillations.

...


Globally, the majority of anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions arise
from fuel combustion. The remainder is accounted for largely by
fugitive fuel (fuel consumed in the production and transport of
fuel), emissions from industrial processes (excluding fuel
combustion), and agriculture: these contributed 5.8%, 5.2% and 3.3%
respectively in 1990. Current figures are broadly comparable.[9]
Around 17% of emissions are accounted for by the combustion of fuel
for the generation of electricity. A small percentage of emissions
come from natural and anthropogenic biological sources, with
approximately 6.3% derived from agriculturally produced methane and

The earth undergoes many various short, medium and long run
atmoshpheric, oceanic and geological cycles. For example, on the long
run, we are still in an 4-5 million year Ice Age cycle, but in an
INTERGLACIATION period -- a long-term warming cycle usually lasting
around 100,000 years. The many past cycles indicate a pattern that
would plunge the earth back into its normal (normal per last 5
million years) ice age. 

Many shorter cycles come into play and have major effects on human
history. The renaissance appears to have been driven by a warming
cycle throught europe. Migration of humans out of africa 50,000 years
ago also corresponds to warming phase.

Even with large and small climate cycles over millions of years, some
dwarfing predictions of human-induced global warming, that in no way
minimizes the large possible effects of the latter.

   I think that's the reason some teachers refused

  Not necessarily. If the mind is the entity trying to

 Exactly. Which is why I agree with Buddha and

 doing their students a favor when they do so.
 They are, in fact, contributing to their

  Enlightenment is that feeling all of us have had where 
  we're just 'in the flow', effortless, and it either 
  lasts as short, intermittent experiences of 'being in 
  the flow', or longer times, or a constant, fully 
  intergrated with 'chop wood, carry water'.
 
 While I agree with the spirit of what you say,
 as usual you have oversimplified things. You list
 only two possibilities, when there are billions.

Every story or explanation is a simplification. Where you saw two 
possibilities above, I saw an infinite number, perhaps the infinite

[FairfieldLife] Stop hog factories = Ed Fallon

2006-06-03 Thread Rick Archer
Title: Stop hog factories = Ed Fallon 





-- Forwarded Message
From: Robert Swanson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Date: Sat, 3 Jun 2006 11:35:13 -0500
To: Robert Swanson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject: stop hog factories = Ed Fallon 

Dear Friends:
 
Last night over a hundred people came to see Ed Fallon, Democratic candidate for Governor, play his accordion and speak on issues dear to his heart, such as local control for hog factory farms, clean elections and promotion of the arts and culture. He is even willing to consider a moratorium on factory farms decided by each local community.
 
Why is it so important to vote for Ed Fallon? Right now in the Pleasant Plain corridor more hog factory farms are being planned. You have seen the news in the local papers. Believe me, if we do nothing, our lives and our friends' lives will be irrepairably damaged.
 
Ed Fallon clearly is opposed to CAFOs. Since 1995, he has consistently raised his voice against them. Our vote for him is not only for his election but a message to the powers that be -- we do not want factory farms.


See what he stands for below. Many Independents and Republicans are voting for Ed in the Primary this coming Tuesday, June 6.
If you have any questions, please call me at 472-4646. Please forward this email to all your friends.
 
Cheers,
 
Robert
PS Mike Blouin, a Democratic candidate for Governor, opposes local control of hog factory farms (Des Moines Register 6-03-06).

 
Ed Fallon, the Democratic candidate for Governor, supports:
 
LOCAL CONTROL - Let counties decide if and where factory farms should locate.
CLEAN ELECTIONS - Special interest money has essentially turned elections into 
Auctions and turned Iowa s budget into their own private feeding trough. Let's pass
clean elections law like Arizona and Maine .
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT - Funding for small businesses to create more jobs
 and the Main Street Program to revitalize our cities and towns
ENERGY  Iowan owned ethanol, biofuels and wind projects. Energy Conservation is cornerstone of his policy
UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE Iowa needs an accessible, adequate and affordable healthcare system
 
Tired of POLITIC$ as U$UAL
Say Yes to Fallon for Governor! 
Vote on June 6 in the Democratic Primary.
 
For more information on Ed Fallon, go to www.fallonforgovernor.net http://www.fallonforgovernor.net

2006-06-03 Thread curtisdeltablues



  I would like to hear more about how the container expands in your
  experience these days. If it can be articulated.

 Really, really difficult to articulate, impossibly
 abstract.

 I guess the least-misleading thing I can say about
 it is that everything is gradually but steadily
 growing more transparent. That doesn't begin to
 cover it, but it's the only word that comes to mind.

Thanks for trying. It is hard enough to describe emotions let alone
what lies underneath. I guess that is why they call these experiences
ineffable. But you used personal choices rather than MMY overused
words so it did convey more. As I remember the experience his words
are the ones that come up so it was nice to hear a more personal
_expression_. 

No, obvioiusly not. But I have a tough time relating
to the rest of it. For me, consciousness expansion
is a process that nothing could take the place of
because it isn't remotely *like* any other process,
not in the same class, not of the same order; it
encompasses and subsumes all other processes.

In many ways my perspective shift is just as hard to express. What
was so important to me dropped away quickly. After a brief feeling of
wha?, I settled in to my new awareness. The details of how I
think about it took longer. That process continues.

You have a valued process that has worked for you for a long time now.
 High five for that!

 life.
  I would not call it the container of the contents of my awareness,
  that is too abstract for me. But they are profound to me and serve 
 as
  a measure of my inner growth. In other words I am not just living

 Of course all this is still an
  activity of consciousness, not consciousness itself. I do relate 
 to 
  this group's focus on personal growth, I just measure it differently
  perhaps. But with all the diversity in experience I feel quite at
  home. That is because the group members I have communicated with
  seems accepting of difference, which is up there in my own version 
 of
  what spiritual should mean.

Sorry, in the longer run, your science is quite uninformed. Given the
pattern of many interglaciation cycles in the past 4-5 million years,
the earth is towards the end of a 100,000 year of so interglaciation
period and in the next 1 to 20,000 years should descend back to a full
ice age.

 Thanks for taking the time to read what I wrote and for your reply.
 Revisiting these concepts in the light of people's experience in this
 group is valuable to me. I remember the TM party line about those
 words. Now I am interested in how people like yourself think about it
 with a broader perspective.
 
 I think there is a spiritual implication to this, because the clarity
 of awareness does fluctuate.
 
 This is what I am having trouble wrapping my mind around. Can you
 articulate how our awareness fluctuates?

Awareness doesn't fluctuate, but for me, appreciation of it does. The
predominant quality of it is silence.

Yes, I just made it up -- the name . But not the stats. I happened to
come across them in some other searches. So I thought I would share.

To bad the name doesn't have a cool acronym. IBWC doesn't roll of the
tongue. I guess it could signify I Be [a] WC (water closet -- aka
toilet, in UK.) Maybe balances out the mocking grandeur of the main
name, with mocking self-deprication (though some will surely say
mocking? IBWC seems to fit you and your posts well.)

What was it Charlie said? ~'if you can think it, it can be done' or
was it, ~'if you can think it, it already is done (on some level, its
now just a matter of time to fruition'

I plan to use excess funds beyond life-time basic needs to fund some
self-generated charitable foundations. Though I had not taken the
above Institute as serious, maybe I will. If only to make people
smile -- if not laugh.

[FairfieldLife] Can you spell Kundalini?

2006-06-03 Thread new_morning_blank_slate



Anyone see the National Scripts Spelling Bee finals the other night?
Not a big draw for me usually, but it moved from ESPN (past years) to
ABC primetime due to its popularity -- and I figured its GOT to be
better than American Idol (except Katharaine McPhee who is worth
listening to 50% of the time -- and looking at 95% of the time).

It was fascinating. 30 or so finalists. About 15 of them Indian. Most
fascinating was the composure, charm and poise of the three finalists
-- all girls. They were all 8th graders (I think), and while spelled
incredible words without blinking, they were not at all geeks, but
looked and acted like smart, accomplished college students. 

Gives some hope to american education. (well, sort of. One of the
three was Canadian.)

Anyway, back to Kundalini. It was the second to the last word in the
competition. The one the winner had to spell after the runner up
missed hers. And before the winner had to spell and additional word in
a new round in order to win.

  Man, that's a great name! I looked it up on the Web

  it could be used as the name of.
 
 
 Yes, I just made it up -- the name . But not the stats. I happened

 come across them in some other searches. So I thought I would share.
 
 To bad the name doesn't have a cool acronym. IBWC doesn't roll of

 toilet, in UK.) Maybe balances out the mocking grandeur of the main
 name, with mocking self-deprication (though some will surely say
 mocking? IBWC seems to fit you and your posts well.)
 
 What was it Charlie said? ~'if you can think it, it can be done' or
 was it, ~'if you can think it, it already is done (on some level,

 I plan to use excess funds beyond life-time basic needs to fund some
 self-generated charitable foundations. Though I had not taken the
 above Institute as serious, maybe I will. If only to make people
 smile -- if not laugh.

Gotta have a Web site for it. Could mix serious with
funny. Have a little store with IB Way Cool items,
profits to go to the foundation. T-shirts, Ask Me Why
IB Way Cool. Portable fans with IB Way Cool logos.
Ice cube trays. Backyard igloos. Lots of possibilities.
