Thank you Click on Thumbnail to enlarge It seems like the Wilton Windmill circle could be decoded by using the windmill itself as a key. We got 4 crossings of the windmill... so the 12 sections of the crop circle become 3 main groups. Each ASCII row of the 3 groups become a byte. Possibly leading to a deeper level to decode. The crop circle is spinning clockwise - so that might be the direction to read the code from section to section. As the crop circle might be connected to the windmill as a key to decode it, the angle of the entry section is probably the same angle of the stairs of the windmill (props to pjw). It also seems to have a DNA connection as there are 4 elements used in each section (no line, left line, right line and left + right line) just like the 4 basic elements of the DNA: Adenine, Thymine, Guanine, Cytosine. Leaving further decoding to all gr8 researchers out there ;-) Nexus I would think that again our ancient roots are of high importance here. After the other three formations at the ancient sites it seems that ancestral culture might be the crop circle-theme for 2010. This new formation seems to contain the old Ogham writing.

For those that missed it - just Google it. It's been all over the news on the 22nd - same date. This one from the BBC - science_and_environment For the first time ever, we are truly playing God , was the quote from one of the scientists. Artificially created DNA was placed in a separate bacteria and we literally created a new organism. Now, if the circle makers saw enough importance and relevance in the Swine Flu virus to give us an impression of that last year, how much more important is the fact that we have now created life and made ourselves like unto God? Virtual gods, as it were. To quote Dr Frankenstein, It lives! It lives! Scary stuff... Without a doubt. And a bona fide milestone. Such a step might surely elicit comment from our friends, it is more than reasonable to suspect. I see the initial CD impression. But then I see slices, a pizza with 12 slices - to be read either in sequence (where is the starting point?) or - and I have a real urge to do this - to stack them, one on top of the other. I don't know why. And I also see, not slices, but rays emanating out from the centre and a curious 3D effect, I think. I also want very much to spin it.

[FairfieldLife] Re: Rachel Maddow: Why Rand Paul Matters
Hotair: Federal overreach in a good cause is still federal overreach. Republicans must reflect on this fact: that if we refuse to reexamine the loose thinking about federal authority in the Civil Rights Act thinking that was strongly opposed by many at the time, as older readers will remember then we have already ceded the principle of federal overreach, and, by our own agreement, there is nothing the US federal government can't do to us. Talk about loose thinking! Wow! Rand Paul can't have it both ways, first saying he's opposed to racial discrimination and then speaking against Title II of the Civil Rights Act, which prevents private businesses from racial discrimination. His Libertarian pedigree, bestowed upon him by his father forever ties him to the wacky legacy of Ayn Rand. No matter how earnestly he tries to justify his Libertarian philosophy, his racist dog whistle is loud and clear. RD Ezra Klien: What's gotten Paul in trouble, however, is that he's so skeptical of government power that he's not even comfortable with the public sector telling private businesses that they can't discriminate based on race. That, I fear, does have public policy implications. For instance: Can the federal government set the private sector's minimum wage? Can it tell private businesses not to hire illegal immigrants? Can it tell oil companies what safety systems to build into an offshore drilling platform? Can it tell toy companies to test for lead? Can it tell liquor stores not to sell to minors? These are the sort of questions that Paul needs to be asked now, because the issue is not area politician believes kooky but harmless thing. It's area politician espouses extremist philosophy on issue he will be voting on constantly. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, WillyTex willy...@... wrote: do.rflex: Why Rand Paul Matters ...this point of contention has shifted from an honest political debate to the enforcement of a religious doctrine.

Once that realization hits, I worry for all of us. So, TMO - go ahead and get those extra bodies into the Domes, whatever it takes.I for one would not object if the TMO emptied its bank accounts by paying people a livable wage to show up there for the next several years. An all out, make or break, let's prove it once and for all or fold thing. Give people back their badges. Imagine - thousands and thousands and thousands there. Lots of people, lots of fun in the off hours. There would be no excuses any more if things did not improve, some nice people would have a modest income, and the participants would by and large be in their 60's so not missing out on child rearing years. This is the stage of life to do this for the remaining TM'ers. Now's the time, TMO. Go for it. In a selfless act, return that money to those who sent it your way over the years of teaching, let them hit the Domes.

[FairfieldLife] M-fields and the Ship of Theseus
from Wiki: According to Greek legend as reported by Plutarch, The ship wherein Theseus and the youth of Athens returned [from Crete] had thirty oars, and was preserved by the Athenians down even to the time of Demetrius Phalereus, for they took away the old planks as they decayed, putting in new and stronger timber in their place, insomuch that this ship became a standing example among the philosophers, for the logical question of things that grow; one side holding that the ship remained the same, and the other contending that it was not the same. Plutarch, Theseus[1] Plutarch thus questions whether the ship would remain the same if it were entirely replaced, piece by piece. Centuries later, the philosopher Thomas Hobbes introduced a further puzzle, wondering: what would happen if the original planks were gathered up after they were replaced, and used to build a second ship.[2] Which ship, if either, is the original Ship of Theseus? ... We can compare the ship to M-fields, specifically, the M-field MMY established with numerous helpers; and which he claims is a continuation of the Holy Tradition. ... But if we compare the MMY/TMO ship to what Guru Dev offered, we see obvious glaring differences; in which fo the most part, numerous planks of the original ship were discarded; with replacements unlike the originals. Going even further, we can find completely sanitized ships such as that of Chopra; where obviously, there's no more ship of Theseus at all! Then addressing some of the abuses reported among the TMO people as individuals coupled with global mismanagement; we are tempted to enter into the blame game (and why not?),..then target the individuals and their faults, or the ship as a whole. ... The faults of individuals are too easy for us to hit back at and doing this solves little; if our quest is to find fundamental causes. In some cases yes, Adi Da was really crazy instead of Crazy. And the Neo-Advaitins are really ordinary and not extraordinary; in which case (as Barry pointed out); we can become more amused by watching somebody eat a taco. ... Without going into details for now, I submit that the MMY ship as a whole has fundamental flaws not only in individual planks, but the structure as a whole; being quite unseaworthy from the very beginning.

Re: [FairfieldLife] The Lost finale 30-second button workout
Didn't work, but I have a different DVR, a DCX3400, which could be why. I just called Comcast and mentioned this hack and the tech person said she knew nothing about it but would research it and call me back. In past calls, Comcast was always pretty much useless about the change to the skip feature. The last person I talked with before today at least knew about how it had changed, but the first person denied it ever had the feature and, believe it or not, even denied Comcast even had the ability to perform a remote update to all their DVRs to reprogram something like that. Some of these techs are pretty useless. It's the backwards one that I wanted restored. I didn't even know there was a forward one until the single knowledgeable tech person mentioned it. Of course, I did mention how a short skip is available with Dish Network and how I wanted to eventually switch to them. Good to know Dish has it, because I do want to switch to them eventually, anyways, for the unlimited DVR storage. My DVR is the latest, with 160 GB of storage.

Re: [FairfieldLife] The Lost finale 30-second button workout
Google is your friend. Did you try DCX3400 30 second skip as a search term? There are a bunch of articles on it. Apparently you program the remote for the DCX a little differently. http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r22649316-DVR-DCX3400-30-Second-Skip-Forward The DCX has an MPEG-4 decoder in it. I would wonder if your OnDemand might look better because they may know it is a DCX and will use an MPEG-4 stream which requires less bandwidth yet be less likely to pixelate. HBO supplies Comcast MP4 streams which Comasts re-encodes to MPEG-2. Treme has a lot of dark and night scenes in it and those re-encodes make darker and harder to see. Most of the Comcast HD DVRs are still the older 3412s and 3416 which can only decode MPEG-2. Dish and DirectTV already use MPEG-4. Eventually Comcast will move to IPTV which works more like the Internet. Instead of sending out a bunch of channels when you select a channel the request goes to a server which switches to that stream. ATT's U-Verse, which is also available in my neighborhood, does this. I would suspect Comcast would still send out the basic channels but everything else would be IPTV. gullible fool wrote: Didn't work, but I have a different DVR, a DCX3400, which could be why.

[FairfieldLife] Re: Rachel Maddow: Why Rand Paul Matters
raunchy: Talk about loose thinking! Wow! Rand Paul can't have it both ways, first saying he's opposed to racial discrimination and then speaking against Title II of the Civil Rights Act, which prevents private businesses from racial discrimination. His Libertarian pedigree, bestowed upon him by his father forever ties him to the wacky legacy of Ayn Rand. No matter how earnestly he tries to justify his Libertarian philosophy, his racist dog whistle is loud and clear. Apparently there were many Democrats who didn't agree with Title II of the Civil Rights Act. So, it's not just Rand Paul and the Libertarians. From what I've read, more Republicans voted in favor of the Act than Democrats. You failed to explain why that is. Although majorities in both parties voted for the bill, there were notable exceptions. Republican senator Barry Goldwater of Arizona voted against the bill, remarking, You can't legislate morality. Goldwater had supported previous attempts to pass Civil Rights legislation in 1957 and 1960. The reason for his opposition to the 1964 bill was Title II, which he viewed as a violation of individual liberty. Most Democrats from the Southern states opposed the bill, including Senators Albert Gore, Sr. (D-TN), J. William Fulbright (D-AR), and Robert Byrd (D-WV)... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civil_Rights_Act_of_1964

[FairfieldLife] Drama in the Gulf tomorrow
Wednesday morning BP is going to attempt to shut down (plug up) the leaking well with a procedure called a top kill, which essentially involves pouring mud into the hole to stop the flow of oil. It's a *lot* more complicated than it sounds. BP has produced a 13-minute video explaining it, step by step, in mostly laypersons' terms, with diagrams and animations. The video is nicely done and will give you some idea of the incredible amount of technical knowledge, skill, and equipment that's required to mess around a mile down in the ocean. One thing the narrator doesn't touch on is the danger to personnel and ships on the surface if the procedure generates an unexpected kick from the well. Oil industry people will be holding their breaths and crossing their fingers and toes tomorrow not just that it works, but that it doesn't make things worse and that nobody gets hurt. BP gives it a 60-70 percent chance of shutting off the flow of oil. The video also explains what they'll try next if the top kill doesn't do the job. http://bp.concerts.com/gom/kentwells_update24052010.htm
[FairfieldLife] Happy Cows - an Ayurvedic Expert's impressions
Radiance Dairy - An Ayurvedic Expert's Perspective on Organic Milk It's milking time, the sun is setting, and a wide expanse of pink and violet sky meet the golden harvested prairies in November at Radiance Dairy in southeast Iowa. About 80 cows moo-ving in single file are merrily making their way into the milking barn. Francis Thicke, owner of Radiance Dairy, Fairfield (Iowa, USA) introduces Harriet the cow to visiting ayurvedic expert Rama Kant Mishra. Vaidya Mishra, who first tasted Radiance Dairy milk in 1994, was overjoyed to at last meet the cows who give such nourishing milk. When I first saw, smelled and tasted this milk in 1994, I was immediately reminded of the raw milk I drank as a boy in my small village in India. It is the one milk in this county that is like the divine milk I drank in my childhood. Ever since then, I have been a fan of Radiance Dairy. Once the cows are in the barn, they are fed organic barley which they consume like it's candy, pushing and shoving to get at it. I was very impressed with the dairy, the whole environment is very clean. The udders are cleaned prior to milking, and most importantly, the cows are well cared for and loved by their owners. The cows are not injected with hormones and are fed only pure food. Francis also plays Maharishi Gandharva Veda music which Maharishi Ayur-Veda believes creates soma in the milk and in turn enhances the milk's intelligence. Soma, according to Maharishi Ayur-Veda, is the impulse of creative intelligence which connects body and mind by physical existence and consciousness. Vaidya Mishra also made a suggestion that Francis play Sama Veda, which will increase even more soma in the milk. Once milking starts, the cows become quiet, sort of meditative and the room is filled with a joyful silence. Vaidya Mishra assures Francis that the cows enjoy being milked and are fulfilling their dharma in this way. The milk is then pasteurized - heated just enough to kill the bacteria. Maharishi Ayur-Veda understands that milk is a very special product, not just physically but on a more refined level - the level of intelligence. The more the milk is processed, the less intelligence and live, good bacteria are present and that greatly reduces the quality of the milk. Therefore, any processing such as reducing fat content or inserting vitamins, is tampering with nature's intelligence and reduces the quality of the milk. The more intelligence in the milk, the greater the health benefits. The type of food the cow eats is of great importance. It should be of the freshest origin, which in turn produces the highest quality milk. Radiance Dairy feeds their cows non-contaminated, fresh grasses and barley. Barley has a kairshna value which means it will not create heaviness. Cows that eat wheat create milk that is a little heavy to digest and too much of this milk can increase congestion or kapha. If you notice a stuffy nose from drinking milk, Vaidya Mishra recommends that you boil water and then combine 50% boiled water to 50% boiled milk. Then add a pinch of cardamom, cinnamon, or ginger. This will make the milk lighter and reduces the fat naturally without disrupting the quality of the milk. The cinnamon helps metabolize the sugar and carries the nutrients of the milk to the brain. Cardamom and ginger help with overall digestion and ginger helps to pacify kapha. Vaidya Mishra further explains that non-organic milk sold in grocery stores may be many weeks old and is filled with antibiotics and hormones, and that the process of homogenization, which includes removing fat, inserting preservatives and vitamins, depletes the quality of the milk. These cows are often overmilked and locked up without the freedom of grazing. The end result is that the milk is difficult to digest and does not have much benefit for our health, and in fact, may be harmful by clogging the channels of the body called shrotas. Clearly, we are also ingesting the antibiotics and hormones which, with regular consumption, may lower our immunity and cause further imbalances. Here, Vaidya Mishra quotes the ancient ayurvedic texts regarding the value of milk: Cow milk is of the sweet taste and it remains sweet even when digested. Many foods have a sweet taste but once it reaches the stomach turns sour. Milk is a good source of blood tissue, gives stamina, lubricates the channels, pacifies both vata and pitta, enhances reproductive tissue, enhances ojas (finest by-product of digestion in the body), helps to rid impurities from the blood and the tissues and creates pure rasa (bone) tissue. It also creates internal smoothness and suppleness that helps to lubricate the channels that carry out excess doshas and malas (waste). Regular use of milk has an anti-aging affect that enhances immunity against diseases. If milk is not prepared or taken properly, it can clog the channels. Milk greatly enhances ojas,

If a one-hour show is really only 40 minutes long, and you give your customers the ability to fast forward through those 20 minutes of commercials 30 seconds at a time, doesn't that mean that they had to start the broadcast of the one-hour show 20 minutes earlier than the listed broadcast time? Now think about an entire evening's worth of view- ing and Skip button pushing. Say three hours of TV, skipping a full *hour* of commercials. Doesn't this imply that the real starting time of that evening's programming was an hour earlier than it appeared to be? Someone explain this to me. Are these TV shows not streaming in real time? And the even more important question -- if I had been sitting there watching the last episode of Lost and pushed my 30-second Skip button enough times, could I have seen the end before it was even broadcast, and thus scooped everyone in the country? :-) If you're using a DVR, which most satellite and cable TV watchers are, then everything is always recorded as you watch it. If you pause or rewind, you end up with a buffer that enables you to skip commercials. Or you can program your DVR to record shows, then the whole thing is buffered. If you're watching live, as it's broadcast, and haven't built up a buffer, you can't fast forward or skip anything. Yup, apparently our resident pirate has been drinking too much grog and missed the point we were talking about DVRs. Most folks with DVRs don't watch a show real time. The closest thing to watching real time most of us do is to wait long enough usually 15 minutes after a recorded show has begun to start watching. That way we are able to skip the 15 minutes of commercials. Advertisers are pissed of course but their ad agencies figured out how to make commercials that you still get the ad info if it is just a 1 frame flash. We don't necessarily use the skip button to avoid commercials but to reduce the time needed to watch the show. Many VCRs had 30 second skip buttons. Many folks with DVRs don't even watch the show the same night its on. This has resulted in strong spoiler rules on many of show's fan forums. And I've been thinking that Logitech actually had the 30-second skip programmed in but I never had tried the chapter button (which is the 30-second skip) on shows the DVR had recorded and only did so after I heard about the skip on the Comcast remote. With theseLogitech remotes you connect it to your computer via USB cable and use their software to setup the remote and it will go to the website and download to the remote the codes needed for the equipment you're using. On my remote there is a menu screen with Watch TV, Watch Bluray etc and when you select one of those all my devices get set for that kind of viewing. And while I'm at it the 24 finale was far better than the Lost one.

Re: [FairfieldLife] The Lost finale 30-second button workout
I might also mention that the 30 second skip doesn't work with OnDemand. Only a one level fast forward is allowed there but depending on the source if it is a network show it may only have a brief promo at the beginning and another in the middle. Also be aware if you are recording a program sometimes the DVR will be writing to the hard drive when you press the skip button and it may appear the button isn't working but the skip instead get cued for after the hard drive write. The 15 second back is just part of the remote's original function. Bhairitu wrote: I have Comcast. They sent out info a while back on how to program one of the keys for 30 seconds forward and 15 back.

TurquoiseB: OK, I know that I have garnered somewhat of a reputation for being cynical here on FFL, but I for one *welcome* this latest pronouncement by the TM movement and this latest push to achieve the magic number. They have, in essence, stated categorically *and in print* that the only thing needed to resolve any remaining imbalances in the country and permanently establish the nation on a high level of invincibility is to achieve the magic number of 2,500 butt-bouncers in Fairfield. I think that is bold of them. It is a claim that is both achievable (if they bribe enough of the few remaining TM practitioners to join in the gluteous maximus glee of 'butt-bouncing for invincibility,' or hire enough brown- skinned slave boys to 'achieve the numbers') and testable. Surely those who thought up this pronouncement believe that the results of this Grand Experiment In Consciousness will result in the proving of Theorem #1 below. Their faith is strong enough that this will be the result that they don't even seem to entertain the possibility of it proving Theorem #2 instead. THEOREM #1: We -- the 2,500 -- rule! We have *proved* that despite the naysaying of critics and those who have lost faith, *we* are the most important people on the planet. Even better, we have *proved* that all along we have been RIGHT and they have been WRONG. Butt-bouncing really IS as cool and as world-transforming as we've claimed it was all these years, and that makes us -- the 2,500 -- MIGHTY and everyone else big, fat losers. Nyaaah nyaaah. THEOREM #2: We -- the 2,500 -- are the World's Biggest Suckers. Not *only* were we duped 30 years ago into moving to a backwater pisshole in the middle of nowhere by promises that it -- and by extension *we* -- were the center of the universe, we still believe it, despite even the contrary evidence of this study we've just completed. The only thing wrong with the theory is that our Vedic Math was a little off. We need 3,000 butt-bouncers to bring about invincibility, not 2,500.

The one time about two decades ago I went to an MA-V practitioner (also an MD--Dr. Gerson, can't remember his first name, he's no longer associated with MA-V), for a shoulder problem, he gave me an elaborate MA-V regimen, but also prescribed pain pills. Later, when it hadn't improved, I went to a sports medicine specialist. For $250, he took five minutes to diagnose the problem (adhesive capsulitis), told me it would most likely go away in a few weeks. Two weeks later, it was gone. Scott Gerson? I have one of his books. I didn't know he was associated with MA-V. I don't think he mentions it in his book published in 1993. Yeah, Scott Gerson. This would have been before 1993, but not too long before. He had an office in Brooklyn but came to Manhattan to hold appointments at the TM center, so he was at least paying enough lip service to MA-V to satisfy Janet. For some ailments sports medicine MDs can be very good and much better than GPs. I kept giggling as I was writing the check for $250 less than 10 minutes after I walked into his office. I'd had a couple of GPs and Gerson look at the shoulder, had x-rays, no help. The sports medicine doc checked my range of motion, did a strength test (pushing against my hand), and that was it. He didn't *do* anything for me other than diagnose the problem and tell me it would likely go away soon. But it was a relief to know what it was, and it did go away soon. Not sure it was worth $250, though!

This is not wishful thinking, Dr. Hagelin said.

We got 4 crossings of the windmill... so the 12 sections of the crop circle become 3 main groups. Each ASCII row of the 3 groups become a byte. Possibly leading to a deeper level to decode. The crop circle is spinning clockwise - so that might be the direction to read the code from section to section. As the crop circle might be connected to the windmill as a key to decode it, the angle of the entry section is probably the same angle of the stairs of the windmill (props to pjw). It also seems to have a DNA connection as there are 4 elements used in each section (no line, left line, right line and left + right line) just like the 4 basic elements of the DNA: Adenine, Thymine, Guanine, Cytosine.

Now, if the circle makers saw enough importance and relevance in the Swine Flu virus to give us an impression of that last year, how much more important is the fact that we have now created life and made ourselves like unto God? Virtual gods, as it were. To quote Dr Frankenstein, It lives! It lives! Scary stuff... Without a doubt. And a bona fide milestone.

[FairfieldLife] FREEDOM BEHIND BARS:
FREEDOM BEHIND BARS: Transforming lives of inmates and guards by Bob Roth http://www.tm.org/blog/author/bob-roth/ on May 21, 2010 [Post image for FREEDOM BEHIND BARS: Transforming lives of inmates and guards] Before you read this, take a few minutes to watch this short video about the Transcendental Meditation program in an Oregon prison. Just take the time and watch the video below. Then read what I have to say. There are few experiences in life comparable to standing in front of a corrections officer at a maximum security prison with miles of barbed wire and massive walls and thick steel gates and then signing your name to an agreement, which states, basically, that if you are taken hostage by an inmate prison officials will not negotiate for your release. Feeling wary does not quite do justice to the emotions. I first had that sense twenty years ago when I taught the TM technique in San Quentin Prison http://www.cdcr.ca.gov/Facilities_Locator/SQ.html , which sits, almost bucolically by the Bay, just north of San Francisco, in Marin County. Here is the street address for some of the toughest, most hardened criminals in California. [Prison-Bars] http://www.tm.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/Bars-1.jpg I had been invited in to teach TM to the inmates and security officersand the results of the practice on the life of the men were extraordinary. These included the umbrella term of reduced rule infractions (big in the world behind bars that includes drug and alcohol use, violent behaviors, etc.) as well as, most importantly, a 50% reduction in recidivism rates among meditating inmates three years after release from prison. Such numbers are, of course, unheard of in the field of corrections, where the notion of rehabilitation has seemingly been replaced by the policy of warehousing prisoners. There was considerable interest among many top corrections officials to offer the TM technique systemically throughout the prison system, but a perfect storm of politics, state budgetary cutbacks, and a general disbelief among some of the top brass in California corrections that anything could work as well as TM led to putting the program on the back burner. [Meditation-prison] http://www.tm.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/Meditation-prison.jpg\ No more. As you can see in this short video from an Oregon prison, the TM technique is re-emerging as a viable, highly effective tool for inmates to use to reduce the acute stresses of prison life (which fuel substance abuse and violence behind bars), optimize an inmate's time for constructive endeavors while incarcerated, and inevitably, reduce their likeliness to return to prison once released. (Recidivism rates http://bjs.ojp.usdoj.gov/ can be as high as 80 percent.) The need for something in prisons to do what the TM program does is obvious. The terrifically high cost of crime http://www.nytimes.com/2009/03/03/us/03prison.html , heavy cutbacks in prison budgets, and the genuine intent among many in corrections to help the men and women behind bars is driving this upsurge of interest. But of course, this is all me just talking. To get an inkling of what it is like in prison and how this meditation is transforming the lives of inmates, I hope you can take a moment to watch the compelling mini-doco above, created by DLF.TV videographer, Amine Kouider. See David Lynch Foundation http://dlf.tv/ for more documentary video of TM projects that are currently being funded.

[FairfieldLife] Tea Party crowd being suckerd and used by Corporate Interests
The GOP's boardroom populism by Paul Krugman Grass-roots anger is being channeled and exploited by corporate interests, which will be the big winners if the GOP does well in November. Corporate interests are balking at even modest changes from the permissiveness of the Bush era. The financial industry, in particular, ran wild under deregulation, eventually bringing on a crisis that has left 15 million Americans unemployed, and required large-scale taxpayer-financed bailouts to avoid an even worse outcome. Did Wall Street expect to emerge from all that without facing some new restrictions? Apparently it did. SO HERE'S HOW IT IS: They're as mad as hell, and they're not going to take this anymore. Am I talking about the tea partyers? No, I'm talking about the corporations. Much reporting on opposition to the Obama administration portrays it as a sort of populist uprising. Yet the antics of the socialism-and-death-panels crowd are only part of the story of anti-Obamaism, and arguably the less important part. If you really want to know what's going on, watch the corporations. How can you do that? Follow the money donations by corporate political action committees. Look, for example, at the campaign contributions of commercial banks traditionally Republican-leaning, but only mildly so. So far this year, according to The Washington Post, 63 percent of spending by banks' corporate PACs has gone to Republicans, up from 53 percent last year. Securities and investment firms, traditionally Democratic-leaning, are now giving more money to Republicans. And oil and gas companies, always Republican-leaning, have gone all out, bestowing 76 percent of their largesse on the GOP. These are extraordinary numbers given the normal tendency of corporate money to flow to the party in power. Corporate America, however, really, truly hates the current administration. Wall Street, for example, is in a state of bitter, seething, hysterical fury toward the president, writes John Heilemann of New York magazine. What's going on? One answer is taxes not so much on corporations themselves as on the people who run them. The Obama administration plans to raise tax rates on upper brackets back to Clinton-era levels. Furthermore, health reform will in part be paid for with surtaxes on high-income individuals. All this will amount to a significant financial hit to CEOs, investment bankers and other masters of the universe. Now, don't cry for these people: They'll still be doing extremely well, and by and large they'll be paying little more as a percentage of their income than they did in the 1990s. Yet the fact that the tax increases they're facing are reasonable doesn't stop them from being very, very angry. Nor are taxes the whole story. Many Obama supporters have been disappointed by what they see as the administration's mildness on regulatory issues its embrace of limited financial reform that doesn't break up the biggest banks, its support for offshore drilling, and so on. Yet corporate interests are balking at even modest changes from the permissiveness of the Bush era. From the outside, this rage against regulation seems bizarre. I mean, what did they expect? The financial industry, in particular, ran wild under deregulation, eventually bringing on a crisis that has left 15 million Americans unemployed, and required large-scale taxpayer-financed bailouts to avoid an even worse outcome. Did Wall Street expect to emerge from all that without facing some new restrictions? Apparently it did. So what President Barack Obama and his party now face isn't just, or even mainly, an opposition grounded in right-wing populism. For grass-roots anger is being channeled and exploited by corporate interests, which will be the big winners if the GOP does well in November. If this sounds familiar, it should: It's the same formula the right has been using for a generation. Use identity politics to whip up the base; then, when the election is over, give priority to the concerns of your corporate donors. Run as the candidate of real Americans, not those soft-on-terror East Coast liberals; then, once you've won, declare that you have a mandate to privatize Social Security. It comes as no surprise to learn that American Crossroads, a new organization whose goal is to deploy large amounts of corporate cash on behalf of Republican candidates, is the brainchild of none other than Karl Rove. But won't the grass-roots rebel at being used? Don't count on it. Last week Rand Paul, the Tea Party darling who is now the Republican nominee for senator from Kentucky, declared that the president's criticism of BP over the disastrous oil spill in the gulf is un-American, that sometimes accidents happen. The mood on the right may be populist, but it's a kind of populism that's remarkably sympathetic to big corporations. So where does that leave the president and his party? Obama

Re: [FairfieldLife] Facebook Question
Sure, if someone wants to set up a dozen different accounts, all he needs is a dozen different email addresses. He can put any name on any account and any pic he can upload as a profile pic, though Facebook does not approve of copyright infringement. One way to try to protect against it is to adjust the account privacy settings so that fewer people can see the friend list. The options are: 'Everyone', 'Friends of Friends', 'Friends Only', and 'Customize'. Customize allows one to enter names or a list of names in either a 'Make this visible to' list, or a 'Hide this from' list, or both. For instance, if you were the person concerned and you restricted your friend list to 'Friends Only', then I would still have access to your friend list and Rory would still have access to your friend list, because we are friends, but if LB were not one of your friends, then he would not be able to view your friend list. Some detective work can get around the restriction to some degree, like if the perpetrator looked at my profile, he would be able to see we are friends and add me to the list of people he wants to try to fool into thinking he is you...he would be able to see we are friends if he browses through my friend list because I open my friend list to eveeryone.

Lets see what they said in 2007: According to extensive published research, the number of Yogic Flyers required to produce the Maharishi Effect is as little as square root of one percent of the nation's population. For example, in the U.S., with a population of just over 300 million people, the required number of Yogic Flyers is 1,730. Dr. Hagelin emphasized that, as significant as the economic developments of the past 100 days have been, the momentum for national transformation is about to accelerate, with another 500 Yogic Flyers soon to join the group of 1500 experts at Maharishi University of Management and Maharishi Vedic City to produce an even more powerful influence of coherence in collective consciousness. This is not wishful thinking, Dr. Hagelin said. This is hard science that has been field tested for over 50 years and documented through more than 600 studies conducted at over 250 independent universities and research institutes throughout the world. In other words: Lets move the goal posts if it doesn't work out as we wanted. Mmmm, hard science indeed! From: http://www.enlightenmenttoday.com/articles/volume1/issue3/index.html
[FairfieldLife] Let that be your last battlefield
An early Star Trek, with Frank Gorshin as Lokai - a fugitive from the enforcer Bele. Lokai is black on the right side of his body and white on the left. Bele has the colors reversed. Capt. Kirk thinks the changed colors are inconsequential but turn out to be a big deal on the planet of Lokai and Bele, the very basis for a type of caste system. Definitely one of the most brilliant of the Star Treks. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Let_That_Be_Your_Last_Battlefield

Re: [FairfieldLife] Facebook Question
I got a notification that Rick was now friends with Bevan Morris and was a little surprised to see Bevan on Facebook, but not too much, since it's so ubiquitous these days. It did not even cross my mind that this was a union of ultra-TB and OTP. Love will swallow you, eat you up completely, until there is no `you,' only love. - Amma --- On Tue, 5/25/10, Sal Sunshine salsunsh...@lisco.com wrote: From: Sal Sunshine salsunsh...@lisco.com Subject: Re: [FairfieldLife] Facebook Question To: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com Date: Tuesday, May 25, 2010, 11:04 PM On May 25, 2010, at 9:11 PM, Rick Archer wrote: On May 25, 2010, at 6:33 PM, Rick Archer wrote: Is it possible to set up a bogus Facebook account, representing yourself as a different person, using his name and photo, and then invite actual friends of that person to be your friends (fooling them into thinking that you are him)?

RE: [FairfieldLife] Facebook Question
I think it's legitimate. I don't think most phonies would go into such detail filling out a bogus Facebook page, plus his page has got some high-level TM people on the friends list, people I think would find out pretty quickly if it were not legitimate and some of whom might even have contacted him or his office before accepting the invitation. The Bio is pretty much word for word what is on the MUM website, which makes me think his assistant may have done much of the work in creating his page: http://www.mum.edu/admin/trustees.html Bevan is on wikipedia. It says there were 7,000 on the Utopia course. That sounds low. There were claims during the course that 8,000+ were flying together at times. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bevan_Morris Rick, do you think it is possible Bevan does not know you are not in good standing with the TMO? Love will swallow you, eat you up completely, until there is no `you,' only love. - Amma --- On Tue, 5/25/10, Rick Archer r...@searchsummit.com wrote: From: Rick Archer r...@searchsummit.com Subject: RE: [FairfieldLife] Facebook Question To: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com Date: Tuesday, May 25, 2010, 10:11 PM From: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com [mailto:fairfieldl...@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Sal Sunshine Sent: Tuesday, May 25, 2010 8:39 PM To: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [FairfieldLife] Facebook Question On May 25, 2010, at 6:33 PM, Rick Archer wrote: Is it possible to set up a bogus Facebook account, representing yourself as a different person, using his name and photo, and then invite actual friends of that person to be your friends (fooling them into thinking that you are him)?

Could it possibly be because no one ever *mentioned* DVRs until I brought this up? All you've been talking about is Comcast and cable/satellite providers. And while I'm at it the 24 finale was far better than the Lost one. Having now seen both, that's not saying much. The 24 finale was sheer, unmitigated propaganda for I should be able to get away with murder if I think I'm right, emphasis on Right, as in Right-wing. Bad writing, bad thinking. As for Lost, while it was fun to see them try to dig themselves out of the nonsense hole they've been digging for six years, I found it less than satisfying. Yeah, it's sweet seeing Hurley and Libby together and all, and in a way the whole series was a tribute to They'll buy anything if we just put attractive-enough stars in it, I'm less than impressed with its overall cosmology. In fact, I don't think there was one.
