[FairfieldLife] Movie review: Total Recall - the 2012 version
Philip K. Dick had a brain full of odd but wonderful ideas. Unfortunately, the cinema has not always been kind to them. Possibly the best example of taking one of his stories and running with it is Blade Runner, but the list of truly admirable efforts kinda stops there. Minority Report was a special effects-laden snore, Next was so horribly miscast that it was near to impossible to focus on its good points, and Paycheck barely even deserves to be mentioned. The only film made from a PKD film that I thought was pretty good was the little-seen 2001 Impostor, and that was mainly because Gary Sinise was tremendous in it. As for the first film based (loosely) on PKD's short story We Can Remember It For You Wholesale, that was actually kinda enjoyable because Ahnold's general cluelessness and constant I'm out of my depth here acting fit what his character was going through. It's a challenging thing discovering that you're not who you thought you were, and Ahnold almost pulled that off in the 1990 version of Total Recall. The new 2012 version keeps a little of PKD's original plot, the image of a woman with three breasts, and even throws in a clever in-joke reference to the previous film (if you see it, there is a scene where Douglas Quaid/Hauser is going through a checkpoint scanner, and the woman in front of him in line is the same woman from the 1990 film). The new film loses the whole Mars thang (and good riddance) and replaces it with an Earth devastated by chemical warfare, with only two livable areas -- the UK and Australia. They are connected by some sort of tunnel mechanism that serfs from the UK are required to hop into to commute through the Earth to work in The Colony. It's called The Fall, presumably because it sorta falls through the Earth and comes up on the other side. The fact that the other side of the Earth from the UK is in the middle of the Pacific Ocean and not in Australia shouldn't cause you any disbelief -- this is science fiction, remember, and you're supposed to suspend disbelief while watch- ing it. Bzzzt. That's exactly what is wrong with the 2012 Total Recall. You have to suspend disbelief FAR too much, because so little of it makes sense. Good science fiction is internally consistent, and even if it makes up new rules for the environment it imagines, it has to stay true to them, and try to make them *at least* be slightly plausible. Simply not happening in the new version. It's basically a non-stop action film, a kind of video game on steroids, aimed (one must assume) at the kind of adolescent audience (it *is* rated PG-13, after all) who have rotted their brains away by staring at computer screens and trying to kill as many video bad guys as possible. You're not supposed to notice that much of the action is physically impossible, and that heat and G-forces would have turned our hero into something looking a lot like strawberry jam in the first reel. Colin Farrell is earnest and in some films, given enough to chew on as an actor to demonstrate it. This is not one of those films. Kate Beckinsale does a good job of being a bitch, and Jessica Biel does a good job of what she's good at -- being beautiful. Bryan Cranston is all but wasted in the part of Cohaagen. He probably took the role because he could fly in for a couple of days and shoot all of his scenes and then go back to Breaking Bad, and quite frankly, he might have been able to deliver a better performance (given the lines he had to deliver) by staying home and *literally* phoning in his performance. Was there anything GOOD about the movie? Absolutely. If you're into non-stop action, and don't want much else in a movie, this is your movie. The sets are stunning, in a Blade Runner kind of way, and create fascinating visions of both the UK and Australia in this not-so-happy future era. For many people, this would be enough. For me, not so much. And I have to believe that Philip K. Dick himself is turning in his grave right about now, thinking Oh NO! Not another one. What is so hard about taking a minor masterpiece and just trans- lating it to the screen, without trying to 'improve' it by dumbing it down? I shudder to think what Hollywood is going to do with the upcoming Flow My Tears, the Policeman Said and Ubik. The latter -- a science fiction novel based on the Tibetan Book Of The Dead -- deserves a faithful translation to the screen. I think we all know that it isn't going to get one.

[FairfieldLife] Re: Strange Cosmic Ride on a Municipal Bus
I think this helps to explain why John was unaware that there is a concerted effort going on in America to disenfranchise voters. It took him three stops to realize that the door of the bus he was on wasn't going to open, and to say something about it. :-) It's not just the voter ID tactic being used. The more insidious attempt to disenfranchise voters has been going on for a number of years, successfully and out of sight. It involves quietly changing the nature of certain crimes from misdemeanors to felonies. Why would someone do this -- to crimes such as simple possession of marijuana, or protesting at rallies without a permit from police (who weren't going to issue the permit in the first place)? Simple. In most states, if you have been convicted of a felony, you lose the right to vote. Forever. No appeal. The vast majority of people convicted of these recently- converted-to-felony crimes are minorities, who stat- istically vote Democratic. Nationwide, over two million African-Americans (13%) have lost the right to vote. Two percent of *all* Americans (or 3.9 million) have lost the right to vote for this reason. And people like John are still standing at the door of their buses, waiting for them to open. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, John jr_esq@... wrote: After doing some business in downtown SF today, I went back h ome taking the bus. The bus was full of people. When I got to my stop, I stood in front of the exit door to get off. But the door didn't open. So, I had to pull the stop chord again for the next bus stop. When the bus got to the next stop, I stood in front of the door and shook it. Once again, the door didn't open and the bus proceeded on its route. Suspecting that there was something wrong, I walked to the front of the long articulated bus and told the bus driver about my problem. I politely told him that there was something wrong with the exit door of the bus. Although he did not say anything, I heard him heave a sigh that sounded more like he was seething with anger.

The bus was full of people. When I got to my stop, I stood in front of the exit door to get off. But the door didn't open. So, I had to pull the stop chord again for the next bus stop. When the bus got to the next stop, I stood in front of the door and shook it. Once again, the door didn't open and the bus proceeded on its route. Suspecting that there was something wrong, I walked to the front of the long articulated bus and told the bus driver about my problem. I politely told him that there was something wrong with the exit door of the bus. Although he did not say anything, I heard him heave a sigh that sounded more like he was seething with anger. The front door opened and I got off the bus. JR

[FairfieldLife] TM for the military is spreading in the US
Maharishi’s Global Family Chat Summary 14 / AUGUST / 2012 Transcendental Meditation for the military is spreading in the US As consciousness rises more big projects pop up in Latin America Dr Adam Pressman described how the news is going mainstream that Transcendental Meditation is providing a solution for military personnel, veterans and ‘first responders’ (police, firemen, emergency workers) as they battle with post-traumatic stress. Typical of the spread was an event held at Fort Hamilton, New York, last Saturday. Adam showed a powerful video of the New York Fire Department chief, the local congressman, and other veterans passionately encouraging the attendees to contribute to the Warrior Wellness programme. Particularly moving was the story told by Debbie Ortiz, wife of a police officer who suffered from severe post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), which was cleared within three days by his practice of Transcendental Meditation. Dr Swan commented that the tone of Dr Pressman’s and Dr Bobbie Roth’s reports has changed remarkably in the past 6 months: they used to speak as though they were leading the collective consciousness from ‘outside’, but now the collective consciousness has risen to the extent that they speak as leaders, but from within the national awareness. Dr Pressman agreed and emphasized that all the developments are due solely to the large group of Yogic Flyers in and around the Invincible America Assembly. Raja Luis said this has been a special week, in which the rapidly changing quality of collective consciousness has delivered two more large projects. At a time when intensive planning is under way to find ways to fulfil huge teaching projects, new projects are popping up from unexpected angles. This week the government of a (neighbouring country,) where there has not been much TM activity, requested a pilot project of 10,000 students to learn Transcendental Meditation. And based on that success TM would be implemented for all students nationwide. While thinking about this, a Sidha who leads an international unit teaching health education programmes in many countries including Africa, requested another large project. Raja Luis also emphasized that this ‘contagion’ is spreading due to the existing large groups of Yogic Flyers who are purifying the collective consciousness of the entire continent. He said we are not in control, but we just keep on steadily doing what we have to do, and then the next step comes by itself. Soon he will be asking again for TM Teachers to come and help.

[FairfieldLife] The enemy of my enemy is my friend
No matter how mentally ill they are, or how much worse me encouraging them to become even more mentally ill affects them. That, sadly, is the everyday reality of the curious phenomenon we call the Internet. The emergence of what many psychologists and sociologists are calling pathological cliques has taken its toll. An incident that happened in New Mexico when I lived there should help to illustrate the problem. On one chat forum, a former mental patient released because New Mexico cut its funds to state-supported mental facilities and had to cut him loose and say nothint in parting but Good luck logged on to the forum and was instantly recruited by one of the reigning cliques on that forum. They encouraged him to join them in dumping on one of their common enemies, a woman who was outspoken about the degree of sexism and racism (she was Hispanic) she saw on the forum. He promptly did so, and was *rewarded* by the members of the clique with strokes and compliments. Every time he'd join them in dissing the woman, they would compliment him and tell him how intelligent and insightful he was. He took this stroking so seriously that he took to stalking the woman in question. He finally raped her brutally, and was sent to prison. Not *one* of the members of the pathological clique in question took any responsibility for his actions, or acknowledged their role in them. They responded with a chorus of We never noticed that there was anything wrong with him. He seemed *normal* to us. WHY he seemed normal was that he *joined them* in their online harassment and persecution of the woman in question. It was more important to them to get the woman they collectively disliked than to notice that he was in a fragile mental state, and in need of *help* in dealing with his psychological problems, not in acting them out. Does any of this sound *familiar* to Fairfield Life members? This shit is dangerous, people. You're messing with fragile and unbalanced personalities, and attempting to *use* them to either exact retribution for grudges you've been carrying for years, or to support fantasy ideas about enlightenment or the spiritual process you've been clinging to for years. I'm calling bullshit. I don't think you give a shit about ANY of these people you recruit. I don't even think you're perceptive enough to see who they really are, or compassionate enough to care. All you care about are your petty grudges and vendettas and attachments to spiritual dogma, and you see these people only as resources to be used and then thrown away like Kleenex.

That, sadly, is the everyday reality of the curious phenomenon we call the Internet. The emergence of what many psychologists and sociologists are calling pathological cliques has taken its toll. An incident that happened in New Mexico when I lived there should help to illustrate the problem. On one chat forum, a former mental patient released because New Mexico cut its funds to state-supported mental facilities and had to cut him loose and say nothint in parting but Good luck logged on to the forum and was instantly recruited by one of the reigning cliques on that forum. They encouraged him to join them in dumping on one of their common enemies, a woman who was outspoken about the degree of sexism and racism (she was Hispanic) she saw on the forum. He promptly did so, and was *rewarded* by the members of the clique with strokes and compliments. Every time he'd join them in dissing the woman, they would compliment him and tell him how intelligent and insightful he was. He took this stroking so seriously that he took to stalking the woman in question. He finally raped her brutally, and was sent to prison. Not *one* of the members of the pathological clique in question took any responsibility for his actions, or acknowledged their role in them. They responded with a chorus of We never noticed that there was anything wrong with him. He seemed *normal* to us. WHY he seemed normal was that he *joined them* in their online harassment and persecution of the woman in question. It was more important to them to get the woman they collectively disliked than to notice that he was in a fragile mental state, and in need of *help* in dealing with his psychological problems, not in acting them out.

Well gee Willy, I guess if Judy sez that it must be true. That despite the fact that the post I quoted had the word Robin in it some 47 times. Guess Judy must have read it as Tobin (or did she read it at all)? :-D Somehow I don't think az expected that Bhairitu would be one of the folks who would fall for the gag, but I could have told az he might, given his propensity to believe in nutty conspiracy theories. Still, it's hard to fathom how anybody with two brain cells to rub together could have read even just the first paragraph and thought it was about Robin. Heck, the second sentence in the first paragraph should have been enough to clue folks in that something wasn't kosher, even if their reading skills were so deficient as to prevent them from being able to decode Robin's message. The real stunner, however, is Bhairitu's claim above, that the appearance of Robin's name in the post is enough to demonstrate that it's about Robin. I mean, it boggles the mind. You just wouldn't expect that kind of stupidity from someone who had managed to make a solid career for themselves. A few highlights: Bhairitu found employment as a musician at various clubs in the Village, as well as earning acting roles in film. His made his debut on the silver screen in Abel Ferrara's China Girl, for which he also wrote the end-credit song Midnight. Bhairitu went on to collaborate with Ferrara on several film and music projects, including: Bad Lieutenant, in which Bhairitu played Jesus Christ and co-wrote the end-credits song; Body Snatchers, which featured the song I Want You Back; and The Funeral, which saw Bhairitu co-starring with Christopher Walken, Isabella Rosselini, Benicio del Toro and Vincent Gallo. Bhairitu then co-starred in the off-Broadway show A Minor Incident with legendary songwriter Carole King, who was making her stage debut in the play. The two collaborated on songs for her Capitol Records release City Streets, including the song I Can't Stop Thinking About You, which Bhairitu co-wrote and plays guitar and performs backing vocals on. It was on stage with Carole King at London's Royal Albert Hall that Bhairitu was spotted by the producers of a new West End musical Buddy: The Buddy Holly Story. Buddy opened to rave reviews on 12 October 1989, at The Victoria Palace Theater. Bhairitu's turn in the title role of Buddy Holly earned him a nomination for the Laurence Olivier Award for Outstanding Performance by an Actor in a Musical. The following year, Buddy at Broadway's Shubert Theater in New York, and Bhairitu was nominated for a Tony Award for his performance, as well as winning the Theater World Award for Best Broadway Debut. After Buddy, Bhairitu appeared in the films Fathers Sons, with Jeff Goldblum, and as Jesus Christ opposite Harvey Keitel in Abel Ferrara's Bad Lieutenant, for which he also performed and co-wrote the title song, Bad Lieutenant with Ferrara. Bhairitu also appeared as Gene Vincent opposite Donal Logue (as Eddie Cochran) in the play Be-Bop-A-Lula at Hollywood's famed Theater/Theater before returning to the London stage for the 25th anniversary revival of Hair at the Old Vic, in the role of Berger. That might have been a fun career but it wasn't mine. Your name appears in it 11 times (it's much shorter than az's post). I don't know of anyone really named Bhairitu. It originally said Barry, but I replaced it with Bhairitu because that's the name you use here. snip Judy goes further into the ozone. Here is the first paragraph she is talking about: Robin W Carlsen has spoken, but it's impossible to decode his incoherent message. Perhaps he's saying that all any child needs is a big dose of television every day. Then again, he might be babbling that he was chosen by God as the trustee of His wishes and desires. Let's get down to brass tacks: It is appalling to me that he has managed to ignore compromise and focus solely on his personal agenda. And let me tell you, he all but forces his underlings to make our lives a living hell. Interestingly, Robin's underlings don't much seem to mind being given such querulous orders. I guess it's hard to free chauvinistic, pompous luftmenschen from the

St. Share or St. Judy - oh no what a dilemma? Hi Ravi. Long time no see. I am not threatened by Robin's brilliance. I was speaking of my general impression of him, not attempting to refute what he says. Having said I did find dumbaz's gags very funny, laughing loud reading another one his posts, the one Share responded to, while waiting for my dinner order here at a restaurant. That these morons are so stuck in their heads is really sad - they could have just had fun, come with witty responses, retorts but all we have is their repugnant prejudices exposed in such a pathetic fashion. It always baffles me when I see people taking Xeno's mental constructs so seriously and I know I have always been curious on how he interacts with normal people in his daily life, I have asked him before and all I got was more mental constructs. Nothing of what I say is really true, and indeed when I say anything it is presented as a mental construct. There is no way to speak without a mental constuct. Saying 'there is no way to speak without a mental construct' is a mental construct. And there is no daily life interaction on FFL, no interaction with normal people, there is only the symbolic structure of language rolling back and forth, so all I get from you, from, Judy, from Barry, etc., are mental constructs. Then one has to make something of those with what one has, and reply using one's own particular mental construct. You operate from the level of your gut perhaps more than anyone here. I do operate that way sometimes, but it is much more subdued especially compared to you, if I interpret the text you write here. It was perhaps that over-emotional style of yours that gets you booted off here at times. The human mind creates a world, and the separate worlds of human interaction do not line up in neat coherent rows. As I am like a separate alien universe to you, so you are to me, when comparing our mental styles. Our emotional palettes are vastly different. Azgrey's post(s) were rather interesting assaults on Robin. I felt the general tenor of the content somewhat appropriate, considering some of the other posts in a similar vein that were more direct, and based on those persons' having known Robin. Robin has the intellectual kutzpah to deal with that post. Judy was correct in that I cannot quite fathom Robin, but I am not sure she does either. I feel Judy is always down in the trenches, logically precise, but does not see the general sweep of the battle. I used to think in ways a lot like Judy. I was, and still am probably in a different way, insufferable. Judy does it with a scope and precision I could never have mustered. It takes too much energy. And how I interact with normal people in my daily life, well, that is a deep deep secret of the universe, hidden from the eyes of dear dear Ravi. Love, Ravi

Share From: azgrey no_re...@yahoogroups.com To: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com Sent: Saturday, August 18, 2012 12:34 PM Subject: [FairfieldLife] An Open Letter To Robin Vol. 2  Half of me was reluctant to write this letter out of concern that Robin may be one of those people who say flighty things for the sole purpose of gaining attention. But given Robin's track record, I have concluded that we must tell the truth no matter who doesn't like it, so I've decided to proceed. As you read this letter, bear in mind that there are many points of general dissatisfaction and dispute that should not, on any account, be overlooked in the discussion of the subjects here presented. One of these is that I am hurt, furious, and embarrassed. Why am I hurt? Because too many disagreeable bullies out there are looking for the quick and easy fix, for a great savior who will make it all right again so they can go back to sleep. They gather at the foot of the mount to herald the coming of Robin and neglect to notice that conclaves of Robin's habitués have all the dissent found in a North Korean communist party meeting. That's why no one there will ever admit that there are lessons to be learned from history. To say anything else would be a lie. Why am I furious? Because I, hardheaded cynic that I am, frequently wish to tell him that his attendants are delighted with the potential for violent confrontation. But being a generally genteel person, however, I always bite my tongue. And why am I embarrassed? Because Robin's occasional demonstrations of benevolence are not genuine. Nor are his promises. In fact, Robin has, on a number of occasions, expressed a desire to reconstitute society on the basis of arrested development and envious malevolence. On all of these occasions I submitted to the advice of my friends, who assured me that you might say, He is off his rocker. Fine, I agree. But he has a glib proficiency with words and very sensitive nostrils. Robin can smell money in your pocket from a block away. Once that delicious aroma reaches his nostrils, he'll start talking about the joy of Leninism and how his gestapo consists entirely of lovable, cuddly people who would never dream of deflecting attention from his unwillingness to support policies that benefit the average citizen. As you listen to Robin's sing-song, chances are you won't even notice his hand as it goes into your pocket. Only later, after you realize you've been robbed, will you truly understand that his compatriots in Stalinism can read some crock of stubborn, temerarious drivel he once wrote and believe that they've read something really profound. Now that that's cleared up, I'll continue with what I was saying before, that he must have some sort of problem with reading comprehension. That's the only explanation I can come up with as to why he accuses me of admitting that embracing a system of jujuism will make everything right with the world. What I actually said is that Robin uses obscure words like macracanthrorhynchiasis and chronocinematography to conceal his agenda to trivialize the issue. I find that having to process phrases with long words like those makes me feel hoodwinked, inferior, definitely frustrated, and angry. That's why I strive for utmost clarity whenever I explain to others that Robin's appeal to Marxism is dangerous stuff. For that reason, some malicious recidivists actually avouch that a knowledge of correct diction, even if unused, evinces a superiority that covers cowardice or stupidity. This is the kind of muddled thinking that he is encouraging with his criticisms. Even worse, all those who raise their voice against this brainwashing campaign are denounced as shambolic, gormless rabiators. Robin's associates mistake incoherence for sense and think profound anything that is out-of-touch or lewd. That should serve as the final, ultimate, irrefutable proof that I have grown tired of watching the repeated handshakes and toothy smiles in front of television cameras and subsequently learning that nothing has truly changed. As always, Robin hates people who guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence,

Bhairitu went on to collaborate with Ferrara on several film and music projects, including: Bad Lieutenant, in which Bhairitu played Jesus Christ and co-wrote the end-credits song; Body Snatchers, which featured the song I Want You Back; and The Funeral, which saw Bhairitu co-starring with Christopher Walken, Isabella Rosselini, Benicio del Toro and Vincent Gallo. Bhairitu then co-starred in the off-Broadway show A Minor Incident with legendary songwriter Carole King, who was making her stage debut in the play. The two collaborated on songs for her Capitol Records release City Streets, including the song I Can't Stop Thinking About You, which Bhairitu co-wrote and plays guitar and performs backing vocals on. It was on stage with Carole King at London's Royal Albert Hall that Bhairitu was spotted by the producers of a new West End musical Buddy: The Buddy Holly Story. Buddy opened to rave reviews on 12 October 1989, at The Victoria Palace Theater. Bhairitu's turn in the title role of Buddy Holly earned him a nomination for the Laurence Olivier Award for Outstanding Performance by an Actor in a Musical. The following year, Buddy at Broadway's Shubert Theater in New York, and Bhairitu was nominated for a Tony Award for his performance, as well as winning the Theater World Award for Best Broadway Debut. After Buddy, Bhairitu appeared in the films Fathers Sons, with Jeff Goldblum, and as Jesus Christ opposite Harvey Keitel in Abel Ferrara's Bad Lieutenant, for which he also performed and co-wrote the title song, Bad Lieutenant with Ferrara. Bhairitu also appeared as Gene Vincent opposite Donal Logue (as Eddie Cochran) in the play Be-Bop-A-Lula at Hollywood's famed Theater/Theater before returning to the London stage for the 25th anniversary revival of Hair at the Old Vic, in the role of Berger.

Worked on a farm, many years ago, where we picked and stewed the apples, added cinnamon and WHAT A TREAT! It was such a good memory that I subsequently named my cat Cinnamon. As an aside, did you know that it is important to have an 's' sound in a cat's name, they will better respond. Dan, thanks for the tip. Right now we have two cats, Buttons and Miracle. Buttons is quite friendly. Not so with Miracle. So, the S thing might apply here. Miracle got his name because we were housing a family of strays in our garage. The mother had taken them up into the rafters. Not all of them survived. After a couple of weeks I went into the garage to retrieve something, and there was a little orange ball of fur in the corner making a tiny meow. He's been ours ever since. But not particularly friendly. Here's something else I read about cats. It is said that black and white cats tend to be more friendly. That has definitely been our experience. Buttons is a black and white and was a stray for months, but insisted on being adopted. And guess what, right this instant he came up to me rubbing my leg. I think he wants the butter treat I somethimes give him. I take a pinch of butter and mush onto the kitchen floor. He love to take that raspy tongue and lick it up.

[FairfieldLife] Qualities of the object
After my brief time here, The Good Doctor observes that the FFL dynamic revolves around the quality of objects. Example, one person says something offensive to another, or the group, perhaps writes a little essay on how most here are, well, unhinged, and/or stupid. The reaction of some is outrage, anger, and generally calling to an end of such behavior. The originator then claims that the reactive members are now showing their true, and invariably negative, colors. EXCEPT, if the offender had not expressed the ugly opinion in the first place, the reactions would not have come. The quality of all that follows, begins with the originating object. To claim otherwise is to argue, for example, that the baseball has nothing to do with the game. So, the offender by being offensive, creates a reality to the others that rests solely with him or her. There is no reason for a reaction of any kind, if no one is being socially or personally offensive. The quality remains with the object.

Robin has the intellectual kutzpah to deal with that post. There was nothing to be dealt with in those posts other than to point out that they were pastiches of remarks made by other writers about other people in other circumstances, with Robin's name repeatedly spliced in; and that the vast majority of these remarks did not, in fact, apply to Robin.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: An open Letter To Robin Vol. 1
Oh my cold, heartless Xeno, It's unfortunate that you can't see how utterly immobilized you are by your mental constructs, by your beliefs - indeed this is why Robin cleans your clock every single time, albeit in his own way, gently, persistently reminding of how far your mental constructs, beliefs keep you away from reality, you are a sitting duck - I feel pity for you petty, vain minds suffering from incorrigible, contagious form of IED (Intellectual Enlightenment Disorder). Look at this interaction I had with a one Dr. Conway on Ammachi free speech list, as soon as I read him, I chuckled - I realized this was another case of IED that's been a scourge of this nation - and that he should be a piece of cake for me to handle, like Xeno I baited him - http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ammachi_free_speech_zone/message/7341 He feel hook, line and sinker - http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ammachi_free_speech_zone/message/7342 I decimated him (last few paras) - http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ammachi_free_speech_zone/message/7368 Poor bastard - I haven't heard back from him - probably retreated to the safety and solace of his neo-advaita brethren. As it stands now Robin I have disagreements on what Enlightenment is and I will not allow sickly, delirious patients of IED such as yourself to muddy the waters here. I'll come hard at you Xeno - every single time, at my fancy, at my pleasure. Because unlike your mental constructs such as this gem here - I do find Ravi particularly annoying, but I have the choice (in free-will terms) to ignore him ( http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/message/301358) - I don't live in my head.

As for the first film based (loosely) on PKD's short story We Can Remember It For You Wholesale, that was actually kinda enjoyable because Ahnold's general cluelessness and constant I'm out of my depth here acting fit what his character was going through. It's a challenging thing discovering that you're not who you thought you were, and Ahnold almost pulled that off in the 1990 version of Total Recall. The new 2012 version keeps a little of PKD's original plot, the image of a woman with three breasts, and even throws in a clever in-joke reference to the previous film (if you see it, there is a scene where Douglas Quaid/Hauser is going through a checkpoint scanner, and the woman in front of him in line is the same woman from the 1990 film). The new film loses the whole Mars thang (and good riddance) and replaces it with an Earth devastated by chemical warfare, with only two livable areas -- the UK and Australia. They are connected by some sort of tunnel mechanism that serfs from the UK are required to hop into to commute through the Earth to work in The Colony. It's called The Fall, presumably because it sorta falls through the Earth and comes up on the other side. The fact that the other side of the Earth from the UK is in the middle of the Pacific Ocean and not in Australia shouldn't cause you any disbelief -- this is science fiction, remember, and you're supposed to suspend disbelief while watch- ing it. Bzzzt. That's exactly what is wrong with the 2012 Total Recall. You have to suspend disbelief FAR too much, because so little of it makes sense. Good science fiction is internally consistent, and even if it makes up new rules for the environment it imagines, it has to stay true to them, and try to make them *at least* be slightly plausible. Simply not happening in the new version. It's basically a non-stop action film, a kind of video game on steroids, aimed (one must assume) at the kind of adolescent audience (it *is* rated PG-13, after all) who have rotted their brains away by staring at computer screens and trying to kill as many video bad guys as possible. You're not supposed to notice that much of the action is physically impossible, and that heat and G-forces would have turned our hero into something looking a lot like strawberry jam in the first reel. Colin Farrell is earnest and in some films, given enough to chew on as an actor to demonstrate it. This is not one of those films. Kate Beckinsale does a good job of being a bitch, and Jessica Biel does a good job of what she's good at -- being beautiful. Bryan Cranston is all but wasted in the part of Cohaagen. He probably took the role because he could fly in for a couple of days and shoot all of his scenes and then go back to Breaking Bad, and quite frankly, he might have been able to deliver a better performance (given the lines he had to deliver) by staying home and *literally* phoning in his performance. Was there anything GOOD about the movie? Absolutely. If you're into non-stop action, and don't want much else in a movie, this is your movie. The sets are stunning, in a Blade Runner kind of way, and create fascinating visions of both the UK and Australia in this not-so-happy future era. For many people, this would be enough. For me, not so much. And I have to believe that Philip K. Dick himself is turning in his grave right about now, thinking Oh NO! Not another one. What is so hard about taking a minor masterpiece and just trans- lating it to the screen, without trying to 'improve' it by dumbing it down? I shudder to think what Hollywood is going to do with the upcoming Flow My Tears, the Policeman Said and Ubik. The latter -- a science fiction novel based on the Tibetan Book Of The Dead -- deserves a faithful translation to the screen. I think we all know that it isn't going to get one. Being a questionable remake AND PG-13 I stayed away from it even though it is playing at the top of the hill. Might make a good rental. Probably the most authentic adaptation of a Philip K Dick novel would be A Scanner Darkly. Dick's daughter Isa Dick-Hacket assisted writer/director Richard Linklater in the making of this film. She is also on the commentary and there is also an extra about

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: An open Letter To Robin Vol. 1
And Xeno baby - I have never claimed humility, I'm no Dalai Lama who masquerades as humble to beguile, bewitch the naive, gullible Westerners, for their money, for their support. However I have explained myself as thus - my supreme arrogance yet genuine humility - in fact I feel my humility is merely a product of my arrogance. You most likely don't have kids - but think like a parent. A parent is both arrogant and genuinely humble towards his children, because the children are but his/her creation, you can never, ever take away the sense of ownership, the subjective sense of ownership, the parent feels towards his kids. Once someone, in reference to my mystical exploits, asked how I feel - I said - I feel like I own your ass. I was born arrogant, my mother, my siblings, only served to reinforce this arrogance, but the existence punished me, rightly so, and I was humiliated, harassed, hounded to learn humility, to respect authority, to learn the rules of the game, to work within them. I'm forever mobile, free, soaring. I'm no slave to anyone, unlike your darling Dolly Lama.

Where is the spirit of inquiry here, the openness, the investigation? The subtleties, complexities of this issue, of my journey, of my mystical experiences - which have been documented by me here, by the various analyses by Robin on this issue. I have never walked away from discussing these issues, however painful they may have been, taking accountability for my words, my actions, apologizing for my actions, words, incorporating other's feedback into my actions, especially Judy, Robin. You have never asked any tough questions, you don't participate in any discussions, you live in a paranoid, narcissistic, delusional, fantasy world.

[FairfieldLife] Your free will, God, and grace: the person in action
. . . there is a scale or range of pitch which is also infinite and terminates upwards in the directness or uprightness of the 'stem' of the godhead and the procession of the divine persons. God then can shift the self that lies in one to a higher, that is/better, pitch of itself; that is/to a pitch or determination of itself on the side of the good. But here arises a darker difficulty still; for how can we tell that each self has, in particular, any such better self, any such range from bad to good? In the abstract there is such a range of pitch and conceivably a self to be found, actually or possibly, at each pitch in it, but how can *each* self have all these pitches? for this seems contrary to its freedom; the more so as if we look at the exhibition of moral freedom in life, at men's lives and history, we find not only that in the same circumstances and seemingly with the same graces they behave differently, not only they do not range as fast from bad to good or good to bad one as another, but, even what is most intrinsic to a man, the influence of his own past and of the preexisting disposition of will with which he comes to action seems irregular and now he does well, now he sins, bids fair to be a sinner and becomes a saint or bids fair to be a saint and falls away, and indeed goes through vicissitudes of all sorts and changes times without number. This matter is profound; but so far as I see this is the truth. First, though self, as personality, is prior to nature it is not prior to pitch. If there were something prior even to pitch, of which that pitch would be itself the pitch, then we could suppose that that, like everything else, was subject to God's will and could be pitched, could be determined, this way or that. But this is really saying that a thing is and is not itself, is and is not A, is and is not. For self before nature is no thing as yet but only possible; with the accession of a nature it becomes properly a self, for instance a person: only so far as it is prior to nature, that is to say/so far as it is a definite self, the possibility of a definite self (and not merely the possibility of a number or fetch of nature) it is identified with pitch, moral pitch, determination of right and wrong. And so far, it has its possibility, as it will have its existence, from God, but not so that God makes pitch no pitch, determination no determination, and indifference indifference. The indifference, the absence of pitch, is in the nature to be superadded. And when nature is superadded, then it cannot be believed, as the Thomists think, that in every circumstance of free choice the person is of himself indifferent towards the alternatives and that God determines which he shall, though freely, choose. The difficulty does not lie so much in his being determined by God and yet choosing freely, for on one side that may and must happen, but in his being supposed equally disposed or pitched towards both at once. This is impossible and destroys the notion of freedom and of pitch. Nevertheless in every circumstance it is within God's power to determine the creature to choose, and freely choose, according to his will; but not without a change or access of circumstance, over and above the bare act of determination on his part. This access is either of grace, which is 'supernature', to nature or of more grace to grace already given, and it takes the form of instressing the affective will, of affecting the will towards the good which he proposes. So far this is a necessary and constrained affection on the creature's part, to which the *arbitrium* of the creature may give its avowal and consent. Ordinarily when grace is given we feel first the necessary or constrained act and after that the free act on own part, of consent or refusal as the case may be. This consent or refusal is given to an act either hereafter or now to be done, but in the nature of things such an act must always be future, even if immediately future or of those futures which arise in acts and phrases like 'I must ask you' to do so-and-so, 'I wish to apologize', 'I beg to say', and so on, And ordinarily the motives for refusal are still present though the motive for consent has been strengthened by the motion, just over or even in some way still working, of grace. And therefore in ordinary cases refusal is possible not only physically but also morally and often takes place. But refusal remaining physically possible becomes morally (and strictly) impossible in the following way. . . . Therefore in that 'cleave' of being which each of his creatures shews to God's eyes alone (or in the 'burl' of being/uncloven) God can choose countless points in the strain (or countless cleaves of the 'burl') where the creature has consented, does consent, to God's will in the way above shewn. But these may be away, may be very far away, from the actual pitch at any given moment existing. It is

[FairfieldLife] Saint Therese of Lisieux
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thérèse_de_Lisieux http://www.amazon.com/Story-Soul-Autobiography-Therese-Lisieux/dp/0935216588 Some quotations: Coming out of the confessional I was so happy and light-hearted that I had never felt so much joy in my soul. Since then I've gone to confession on all the great feasts, and it was truly a *feast* for me each time. In one instant, I understood what life was; until then, I had never seen it so sad; but it appeared to me in all its reality, and I saw it was nothing but continual suffering and separation. I shed bitter tears because I did not yet understand the *joy* of sacrifice. The sickness which overtook me certainly came from the demon; infuriated by your [her sister] entrance into Carmel, he wanted to take revenge on me for the wrong our family was to do to him in the future. He did not know that the sweet Queen of heaven was watching over her fragile little flower, that she *was smiling* on her from her throne in heaven and was preparing to stop the storm the moment her flower was to break without any hope of recovery. This sickness was not unto death,' but like that of Lazarus it was to give glory to God. And God was glorified by the admirable resignation of my poor little *Father*, who thought his *little girl was going crazy or was about to die*. God gave me the grace of knowing the *world* just enough to despise it and separate myself from it. I don't believe one can taste joy anywhere else but in religious communities. My heart, sensitive and affectionate as it was, would have easily surrendered had it found a heart capable of understanding it. I tried to make friends with little girls my own age, and especially with two of them. I loved them and they in turn, loved me insofar as they were *capable*. But alas! how *narrow* and *flighty* is the heart of creatures. How can I thank Jesus for making me find *only bitterness in earth's friendships*! With a heart such as mine, I would have allowed myself to be taken and my wings to be clipped, and then how would I have been able to *fly and be at rest*? How can a heart given over to the affection of creatures be intimately united with God? I feel this is not possible. But I know that Jesus *has forgiven me more* than *St Mary Magdalene* since He forgave me *in advance* by preventing me from falling. I have heard it said that one cannot meet a pure soul who loves more than a repentant soul; ah! how I would wish to give the lie to this statement! One lady said I had pretty hair; another, when she was leaving, believing she was not overhard, asked who the very beautiful young girl was. These words, all the more flattering since they were not spoken in my presence, left in my soul a pleasurable impression that showed me clearly how much I was filled with self-love. This was my consolation, for was not Jesus my *only* *Friend*? I knew how to speak only to Him; conversations with creatures, even pious conversations, fatigued my soul. I felt it was far more valuable to speak to God than to speak about Him, for there is so much self-love intermingled with spiritual conversations! It was December 25, 1886, that I received the grace of leaving my childhood, in a word, the grace of my complete conversion. We had come back from Midnight Mass where I had the happiness of receiving the *strong* and *powerful* God. Ah! [Trip to Rome, the Eternal City] what a trip that was! It taught me more than long years of studies; it showed me the vanity of everything that happens and that *everything is affliction of spirit under the sun*. The religious life appeared to me *exactly as it is* with its *subjections*, its small sacrifices carried out in the shadows. My mortifications consisted in breaking my will, always so ready to impose itself on others, in holding back a reply, in rendering little services without any recognition, in not leaning my back against a support when seated, etc., etc. As soon as Jesus descended into the hearts of my relatives [she was about to enter Carmel], I heard noting around me but sobs. I was the only one who didn't shed any tears, but my heart was beating *so violently* it seemed impossible to walk when they signaled to me to come to the enclosure door. Ah! I was fully recompensed for all my trials. With what deep joy I repeated those words: I am here forever and ever!
[FairfieldLife] Is true randomness possible?
Yes...from Wired, Sept 2012: ... But now scientists at the Australian National University have introduced a technique for generating 5.7 billion truly random values per second. They do it by harnessing the fundamental uncertainity of the universe. Their technique measures quantum phenomena in a box completely devoid of photons, where ghostly virtual particles randomly burble in and out of existence 24/7. God does not play dice, Einstein famously quipped in response to evidence that randomness rules the cosmos. Luckily, he was wrong. (Wired article by Jonathon Keats).

Doc, although I addressed Barry directly, it was not in an attempt to fix him, simply to correct his assertions for the record. And if you'll forgive me, while your observations are interesting, it's generally not considered good form for a newbie to a forum to instruct its members in how to conduct themselves. Stick around, participate in conversations, get to know the other members, absorb some of the context of the group and its dynamics. Then you'll be in a better position to offer advice. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, authfriend jstein@ wrote: --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, turquoiseb no_reply@ wrote: snip WHY he seemed normal was that he *joined them* in their online harassment and persecution of the woman in question.

Does any of this sound *familiar* to Fairfield Life members? Only by way of your posts pretending that it happens here. This shit is dangerous, people. You're messing with fragile and unbalanced personalities You mean to say people who *in my opinion* are fragile and unbalanced personalities. But that's a little problematic because you tend to portray anyone who criticizes or disagrees with you as a fragile and unbalanced personality. , and attempting to *use* them to either exact retribution for grudges you've been carrying for years, or to support fantasy ideas about enlightenment or the spiritual process you've been clinging to for years. And this is pure fantasy that even you are aware is not true. That you keep pushing this absurd notion in an attempt to get back at your critics leads some of us to wonder whether the fragile and unbalanced personality is you.
