Yeah, they do have high efficiency standards and it was hard. Their motto is we run the tightest ship in the shipping business. I thought it should have been we CAN get blood out of a turnip. As a delivery driver I was expected to make about 18 stops per hour, regardless of whether each stop only had 1 small light package or 100 packages up to 150 lbs. I usually made that quota or close enough due to good area knowledge and skilled methods learned over my career, use your mind, not your body. However, my last year was in 18 wheelers. Now that was easy, no lifting or quotas, just safety. Hook up a trailer or two, drive to Dallas or some other city, drop off the trailer and hook up one or two more to bring back. I thought I would last another 6 or 7 years. After slipping off the top step of my tractor one night and falling backwards flat on my back, lumbar across a curb, an orthopedic doctor found that I had Ankylosing Spondolitis and refused to let me return to work, said I was a liability to anyone that would hire me and said another accident like that could kill me.

Law enforcement did not ask for and does not need this new tool... Producing a driver's license is not a 'new tool', John. When we board an airplane, we are asked to produce a government-issued photo ID, usually a driver's license. When we make some credit - or debit-card purchases in department stores, we are asked to produce a driver's license. When we enter many office buildings, both private and government, security guards often ask us to produce a driver's license. When we go to doctors' offices and hospitals, we are asked to produce a driver's license. When we check into hotels, we are asked to produce a driver's license. When we purchase some over-the-counter drugs, we are asked to produce a driver's license. If we go to a bar or nightclub, anyone who looks at all young is asked to produce a driver's license. And needless to say, if we have any encounter with police or other authorities, we are asked to produce a driver's license... Read more: What America is Michael Gerson living in?

That's my point. When you exaggerate, and people catch you at it, they're liable to stop believing even accurate reports, because they assume they're exaggerated too. What you really need to do is build *trust* by being scrupulously accurate and doing your bit to debunk unrealistic alarmism.

If we don't get that gushing oil stopped, and this is not a lie, ALL THE OCEANS WILL DIE, and so will we in short order. 2012 has arrived early. That gusher can turn out to be as lethal as an incoming comet or super-volcano or gamma ray burst. Am I afraid? YOU FUCKING BET I AM. I feel like the villagers helping toddler Krishna hold up the mountain with sticks. And with such obvious impotency relative to that of the Divinity, one finds oneself wanting to at least use a bigger stick or wave it harder or something -- ANYTHING -- to show one's emotions about the demonic-storm that Krishna's mountain umbrella thwarts. Just so, the BigOil monster that we'd all at least symbolically want to try to fight, DESERVES our exaggerations and, at this stage, our outright lies about them. Why not fight fire with fire? BP's billions (trillions?) are being protected by a mindfully constructed web of lies and obfuscations. They simply do not deserve an honest look-see by the likes of us. Our best tools are our blind outrage and our over-the-top knee-jerking hatred of their environmental thuggery. And do not discount the ire of the masses having at least the power to make BP think a little harder next time it plans to install drilling rigs without the safety equipment they had in Europe and elsewhere, or, hopefully, to get something passed by congress NOW. I say that anyone who gases up at a BP station is abetting BP. Drive 'em out of business, sez moi, and to those who are employed by BP -- sorry, go get a job that isn't the equivalent of bashing fur seal pups. And that's NOT a lie or an exaggeration -- ask any Gulf pelican about the torture of oil and see if it wouldn't rather have a fast death by clubbing. And all you other BigOil employees, yeah, it's not just BP, so you too. These oil companies are owned by monsters, and these owners AND THEIR EMPLOYEES are those that that need to be hunted down to the person -- not the corporation -- the actual human beings doing this shit. Hunted down and stared at like you'd stare at someone standing over a body with a smoking gun. If you know any of them -- hate them openly, despise them openly, shame them openly, shame their families, shame their kids, shun them, cut them no break, yell at them, point at them as you would at a robber running from a bank, cuz each and every one of them needs to see that they're the guards at the concentration camp who are saying that they don't smell any smoke. Rip off their vile masks of denial about what they may right now doing to help a few rich mofos kill our world -- KILL OUR WORLD. Yeah, the history of BigOil has been a slow-motion kind of murder so far, but if we dodge this Gulf bullet, nay, this Gulf Extinction Level Event, then shame shame shame on us if we don't do to these monsters what everyone thinks should be done to Osama Bin Laden. Take their money, take their status, take their lives if that's the only way, send some flying drones into their mansions, stop them, stop them, stop them.

I'd rather have the FAR LESSER EVIL of, say, the KKK winning the next election and making all non-whites wear a Star of David than have any BigOil owner allowed the powers right now being used against the world. Even the fact that 10,000 children will die today from dirty water is not a sin as great as what this Gulf Disaster may turn out to be.

[FairfieldLife] Oil Spills and Earthquakes Due to Mars
Mars is still transiting its debilitation sign of Cancer. In jotish, Mars is angry and furious to be in his weakest point in the zodiac. Thus, we've seen oil spills and earthquakes in the very recent past. In technical terms, Mars owns Scorpio a significator of oil wells among other things. Mars also is a significator or karaka for earthquakes, storms and floods. On a good note, Mars will enter the sign of Leo on May 27, 2010. So, there should be some improvements in the world front and the natural order. JR

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Bloomberg speculates that Times Square car bombing because of health care bill
Yes, congrats on that. I've been fighting the battle of bulge much of my life. However I also been going for jogs or walks daily since the 1970s. My thighs are very muscular from supporting the extra weight. I'm curious about how tall you are and are you also big boned? That would make a difference as to how you were perceived as being overweight. In my case I just look husky to a lot of people. Losing weight is not easy except to those vata types who have never had to do so and they often think it's all a matter of taking in less calories. What often happens with some folks if when they reduced calories they lose energy and hence no weight loss. There really are people who can gain weight on a fast. I also think for some people meditation can be fattening because it reduces the metabolism and some folks don't need their metabolism reduced any further. In fact for those folks one chiropractor who was a TM'er and wrote a book I read back in the early 1980s strongly believed that these folks need to do exercise instead of meditating (or at least balance the meditation with exercise).

It was taking Nike's just do it to the extreme and adding whether it is legal or ethical or not. We've now had 30 years of this kind of criminal thinking.

It's like giving a little brat a puppy and the kid never takes care of it and you wind cleaning up after it and feeding it. What does a good parent do? They take it away from the kid. Not only have the oil companies proven they're too bratty to run things but also so have the banks, telecoms, insurance companies, media companies, and so on. Any company to big needs to be broken into a thousand pieces. It is no wonder that the ancients of India put business people on the third rung of the ladder just above the the blue collar folks.

Yeah, the ancients of India were so successful at creating a fully equal, scrupulously honest society with little poverty or starvation, weren't they? Bhairitu: Are you speaking of around 600-1000 AD? Sal probably has no idea what period of Indian history she's referring to - it's an India-bash. Sal is obviously prejudiced against Indians. Why would she care if it was 600-1000 AD or not? She hates the Maharishi - that's enough to cause her to hate all Indians as a group. Judy says Sal is pretty stupid, so go figure.

That's why I asked about those dates. Those were periods of high civilization in India. This was before the hordes invaded including the European ones. The caste system was developed to help people find their dharma and was not meant to be repressive. Kinda like you might do better being a musician than a basketball player. The caste system is explained in either episode 1 or 2.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Bloomberg speculates that Times Square car bombing because of health care bill
I'm pretty much Pitta/Kapha. 5'11, medium bone,185. By the time I had lost 170 lbs, I'm sure a significant part of that was muscle, thus the current weight training program I'm following. In January, I was 19% body fat at 198 lbs., probably about 15-16% body fat at 185, as of now. Losing muscle mass will slow the metabolism down, the body thinks it's starving and finds a way to slow the process down. Gaining muscle stimulates the metabolism and helps burn calories faster. I think people on vegetarian diets will lose muscle, thus slow their metabolisms down, making it harder to lose unwanted pounds.

The detoxification from the vegan diet will make people feel healthier but as they start to lose muscle tone they may not feel so good. Just because you may feel good now on an ayurvedic diet doesn't mean you will a year from now. I've been down that road before. The vegan diet is also a conspiracy to make the masses weak and submissive. ;-)
Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Bloomberg speculates that Times Square car bombing because of health care bill
I'm pitta/kapha consitution too. A lot of Americans are according to Chopra. I'm 5'8 and supposedly big boned according to my trainer but I might dispute that as being medium boned. With one diet in the 1970s I went down to 140 lbs which was too skinny and vata aggravated. The ND who put me on that in the summer would have done well to adjust it come autumn as I started to notice the cold weather more. Dr. Robert Svoboda said we eat for our minds and not our bodies which is why so many people fail on diets because they often can't do their work when on them. I know several people who told me their doctor put them on a diet and when they started losing their judgment skills they dropped it like a hot potato.

[FairfieldLife] Why Bother with FFL?
Why do you keep interacting with Fairfield Life (primarily with Curtis and Barry Turq)? With all your involvement with the variety of saints and teachers, with the growth you are having (I am basing that on from my reading here on FFLife - as a lurker) why do you bother with FFLife? You MUST have better things to do. I suggest it's an addiction and one you can do without! Dear One, Actually my attachment here is way less than my pen-name appearance might appear. And what of yours? You moved away from Fairfield and dropped to posting hardly at all on FFL after some while. Yet you keep coming back to read it. Your addiction keeps you coming back, obviously. As far as me, Curtis and Turq, I am interested academically in what they have to say. The same kinds of criticism Curtis and Turq make was leveled at other transcendentalists before. Like Mother Anne both before and after her death, and at the Shaker org after her death as their next generations took over. Also at Emerson in his career as a teaching lecturing transcendentalist, he would get this same criticism, a contending attack by deniers wanting to dispute POV and doctrine. Same again against Elias Hicks in his time. Spiritual experience vs doctrine devoid of spiritual experience. Curtis and Turq are interesting because they are smart, well written, fallen-away, and deniers. Classic sophists to nearly the point of Pharisaic in their indictments. I like them in that it is interesting to see it for what is by contrast. That is my blog interest in it. Is simply as exploration. Like Chapter II Gita. I appreciate that folks write things often as an exploration of somethings. A consideration. There is a lot of that on FFL. Curtis and Turq are quite good at it I like them a lot for that and actually don't take it personally. The thing they lack is spiritual experience, that is all. Their POV's often point in the right direction. I like that they are spirited in their points of view even if wrong then also they are not really bad like some. Is interesting that you picked up on that thread. You never know who really is reading here. And Fairfield? I live here still and like it very much for many reasons. I miss that you are no longer here and do not post much to FFL either. I appreciate that you took the time to write to me out of concern directly about this. Really I don't spend much time at all on FFL. Most of what I might write I may text or jot down while I am out doing farm work as something occurs to me as I'm doing other things. A lot of times I am four or five posts ahead waiting for a thread to develop in a direction. As it always has been, it is incredibly easy to edit and lead FFL in directions depending on content. I think it is great that Rick has kept this place as a blog to be used. Some call it Rick's list, I look at it as a place for one of my blogs. I write a lot otherwise too. In fact, FFL, Fairfield and the TMmovement discussions often are useful to the community here. The sex, money power, it all gets mitigated in ways and folks behave a little more accountably when brought (may be even flushed or dragged) out in the open. That continues to be a power with the internet and in FFL as forum.There is a reality to that as, you got to know the territory. The communal value is that FFL still can serve as a place in the community where truth can get rendered down more quickly as things come up. Like recently with Raja Nadar Tony and his wife. FFL readership evidently goes up and down but becomes substantial and important when stuff like that happens simply because the movement.org is not inclined to tell the whole truth left to its own. That is left to FFL for the benefit of those of us who do live here. Discovery is still the real value of FFL thanks to Rick and the other FFL moderators for hosting it. Jai Adi Shankara, -Buck in FF
[FairfieldLife] Re: Video: Canadian Couple Arrested at US Border
--- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Bhairitu noozg...@... wrote: I actually had the Canadian border folks pull me and another TM teacher in for questioning when we crossed the border to see a Paul Horn and Larry Domash thing in Vancouver BC. The teacher I was with just *had* to say we're teachers on our way to a meeting before I could say just visiting which was more pertinent. However the Canadian officers were not harsh nor rude. They were just concerned we were going up to steal teaching jobs away from Canadians. Boy did I yell at that idiot teacher after they let us go. TM made some people really lame. So, the moral we are to take away from this story is these TM teachers are so lame because a Canadian border control agent asked them where they were going, and they gave a simple straightforward answer instead of divining what might have been in the back of the border control agent's mind regarding the employment picture of Canadians? And I presume this happend 35 years ago? I'm not getting. I'm afraid it says a lot more about you Bhairtu. Like it might be getting close to the end of the day, and you haven't gotten enough TM bashing in.
[FairfieldLife] Slick Operator: The BP I've known too well, by Greg Palast
I've stayed out of this whole oilspill slimefest and egofest, because 1) I think that every time America gets a taste of what its dependence on oil costs it...and the world...the world is a better place for that, and 2) I have no interest in the petty egosquabbles here (a bunch of armchair do-nothings crying My experts are better than your experts and if you don't agree you're stupid and just haven't read what I wrote and besides you're stupid), and 3) I have even less interest in the drama queen hysterics of people like Edg who milk such events for faux emotions to trot out and wear on his oh-so-greasy sleeve and act out over to replace the real emotions he doesn't feel any more. That said, I'm not above pouring a little fuel on the fire of ego, in the spirit of the firemen from Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451. Burn, baby, burn. Slick Operator: The BP I've known too well, by Greg Palast I've seen this movie before. In 1989, I was a fraud investigator hired to dig into the cause of the Exxon Valdez disaster. Despite Exxon's name on that boat, I found the party most to blame for the destruction was ... British Petroleum. That's important to know, because the way BP caused devastation in Alaska is exactly the way BP is now sliming the entire Gulf Coast. Tankers run aground, wells blow out, pipes burst. It shouldn't happen but it does. And when it does, the name of the game is containment. Both in Alaska, when the Exxon Valdez grounded, and in the Gulf over a week ago, when the Deepwater Horizon platform blew, it was British Petroleum that was charged with carrying out the Oil Spill Response Plans (OSRP) which the company itself drafted and filed with the government. What's so insane, when I look over that sickening slick moving toward the Delta, is that containing spilled oil is really quite simple and easy. And from my investigation, BP has figured out a very low cost way to prepare for this task: BP lies. BP prevaricates, BP fabricates and BP obfuscates. That's because responding to a spill may be easy and simple, but not at all cheap. And BP is cheap. Deadly cheap. To contain a spill, the main thing you need is a lot of rubber, long skirts of it called boom. Quickly surround a spill or leak or burst, then pump it out into skimmers or disperse it, sink it or burn it.Simple. But there's one thing about the rubber skirts: you've got to have lots of it at the ready, with crews on standby in helicopters and on containment barges ready to roll. They have to be in place round the clock, all the time, just like a fire department; even when all is operating A-OK. Because rapid response is the key. In Alaska, that was BP's job, as principal owner of the pipeline consortium Alyeska. It is, as well, BP's job in the Gulf, as principal lessee of the deepwater oil concession. Before the Exxon Valdez grounding, BP's Alyeska group claimed it had these full-time oil spill response crews. Alyeska had hired Alaskan Natives, trained them to drop from helicopters into the freezing water and set boom in case of emergency. Alyeska also certified in writing that a containment barge with equipment was within five hours sailing of any point in the Prince William Sound. Alyeska also told the state and federal government it had plenty of boom and equipment cached on Bligh Island. But it was all a lie. On that March night in 1989 when the Exxon Valdez hit Bligh Reef in the Prince William Sound, the BP group had, in fact, not a lick of boom there. And Alyeska had fired the Natives who had manned the full-time response teams, replacing them with phantom crews, lists of untrained employees with no idea how to control a spill. And that containment barge at the ready was, in fact, laid up in a drydock in Cordova, locked under ice, 12 hours away. As a result, the oil from the Exxon Valdez, which could have and should have been contained around the ship, spread out in a sludge tide that wrecked 1,200 miles of shoreline. And here we go again. Valdez goes Cajun. BP's CEO Tony Hayward reportedly asked, What the hell did we do to deserve this? It's what you didn't do, Mr. Hayward. Where was BP's containment barge and response crew? Why was the containment boom laid so damn late, too late and too little? Why is it that the US Navy is hauling in 12 miles of rubber boom and fielding seven skimmers, instead of BP? Last year, CEO Hayward boasted that, despite increased oil production in exotic deep waters, he had cut BP's costs by an extra one billion dollars a year. Now we know how he did it. As chance would have it, I was meeting last week with Louisiana lawyer Daniel Becnel Jr. when word came in of the platform explosion. Daniel represents oil workers on those platforms; now he'll represent their bereaved families. The Coast Guard called him. They had found the emergency evacuation capsule floating in the sea and were afraid to open it and disturb the cooked bodies.
