 Interesting, but I also found it interesting that
 she didn't offer much justification for *why* she's
 saying what she's saying about becoming comfortable
 with contradiction. She did mention the mental body
 vs. the heart, but to me that's NewAgeSpeak.
 

yes, I've notice that term, but I'm not sure that she is speaking
as a NewAge guy, but maybe some of her audiance are such.
most of her other talks are coming from the advaita teachings,
my interpratation was that she was pointing to listen with your
intuition, aka heart while leaving the contradiction on the leanear
level as is, that way one can transcend the paradox or conflict
and find his own truth.


 One additional point of information that can actually
 give some justification for her stance is in MMY's
 olde saying, Knowledge is different in different
 states of consciousness. Even *within* his system
 there are paradoxes, depending upon which state of
 consciousness he is speaking about, or from. The 
 description of reality is different from the POV 
 of waking state, or CC, or GC, or UC. Total contra-
 dictions. But very possibly all true. 
 
 It seems to me that the attempt to claim that some-
 thing is true, and to actively get someone else
 to buy into that truth, is an attempt to get
 them to *share your state of consciousness*. 
 

yes, I was thinking exactly that verse when i heard her talk.

 Any appeal to others to believe something that is
 true only from the unenlightened waking state is,
 almost by definition, an appeal to these others
 to look at the situation *from* the POV of unenlight-
 ened waking state. If these others are looking at 
 the situation from another state of consciousness,
 from the POV of, say, UC, then the situation as
 described by someone in the state of ignorance is 
 *not* true, for them. 
 
 But the folks who feel the need to *convince* these 
 others that they know the truth often keep ham-
 mering away at the UC POV, telling it that it's 
 wrong, and that they should look at things from 
 the right POV. Which in this case, of course, is 
 ignorance.
 

yes it is applicable to different levels of  consciousness,
yet it can also be expanded to the different spiritual systems,
meaning the different spiritul teachings that one finds them
to contradict each other.

 If you need an example of this, look at Rory's 
 recent post #140834. I thought that was a marvelous
 example of stepping back and expressing the same
 situation from a completely different POV and SOC,
 from which it looks entirely different. What *seems*
 true when looking at the situation from one POV is
 no longer true when looking at the same situation
 from another POV. 
 
 Something to bear in mind when trying to claim that
 your POV is true. When you make that claim, aren't 
 you *really* saying, *Mine* is the POV or SOC from 
 which 'truth' is determined?

 If the discussion is not mataphysical, but rather is focussed on

  Actually, I don't recall having seen many, if any,
  disputes of this nature here. 
 
 I agree. I can't recall many if any, Turq, can you cite 3-4 of 
these
 discussion, My mind draws a blank.
 
 
 I think the assertion
  above is being used to lump all disputes about
  what is true and what isn't into this category and
  thereby stigmatize anybody who takes a stand on
  anything as being in ignorance, as well as to
  excuse those who contradict themselves or get
  their facts wrong or express an opinion that is not
  well founded.
 
 Some true contradictions are inevitable -- and useful -- if used 
well.
 That is far from validly concluding or infering that ALL 
contradicions
 are good.   If someone says the cat is black, when its white, 
thats a
 contradiction. One of mistaken perception. Its not profound.

 Since few discussions are really debating such, your point is not
 relevant to 99%+ of all dsscussions here that focus on the every 
day
 material world. If in that context if you know, its a 
contradiction
 is used as a trump card -- to justify poor logic, cognitive
 difficulties or incorrect facts, then its a cop-out.
 
  Nope.  Depends entirely on the claim and the
  nature of the POV.
 
  
  
  Charles Manson is reported to have said, If all
  is One, nothing can be wrong.
  
  That's true, but it's irrelevant, even if we
  accept for the sake of argument that Manson was

  the level of human interaction is just sophistry.
 
 Yes.

[FairfieldLife] Moroccan YouTube ban elicits negative reaction from citizens

2007-05-30 Thread larry.potter
Rabat (Morocco) - Moroccon Internet users have been banned from 
accessing YouTube for over a week, and now some are beginning to 
doubt the government's response that the problem is due to 
a technical glitch.

The video sharing site has been blocked from subscribers of 
Morocco's Maroc Telecom, a state-run company that provides the 
majority of Internet access, since last Friday.  A government 
spokesperson told the Associated Press it was unable to comment, and 
Maroc Telecom would not go further than to say it was a glitch.

However, skeptics are wondering how a glitch would prevent access to 
only one site, and why it hasn't been fixed in four days.  They've 
clearly blocked YouTube, said local student Abdelhakin Albarkani.  
It allowed us to see things the state newspapers and television 
won't show.

Videos criticizing the country's treatment of Western Sahara, a 
Moroccon-owned territory, went up on the site shortly before it 
became unavailable to Maroc Telecom subscribers.

Morocco is in the same category as Thailand, with strict laws that 
prohibit overt criticism about the government and its ruler.  
Thailand received international attention when it banned YouTube 
because of a video that insulted the country's king.

  FW
  Excerpts from Maharishi's talk of 17 May 2007: 
  
  We cannot describe what is indescribable -- and what is 
  indescribable is the benefit of Vastu structured buildings -- 
  Sthapatya Veda buildings. I am living in the Sthapatya Veda 
 building, 
  and what I feel is, that the walls of the house -- they don't 
 produce 
  a cage for me. I don't feel that I am living inside the walls.  
  
  The walls are as transparent, as is the meaning of cosmic 
living --
  
  cosmic living -- you don't feel that you are cramped by the 
walls. 
 I 
  have been, all my life -- fifty, forty years living wherever I 
 went, 
  living with whomsoever kept me as his guest and all...and always 
I 
  was feeling, I am caged within these walls. And ever since they 
 gave 
  me this house to live in, I'm not feeling restricted. This is 
 cosmic 
  living. 

  I am living within the walls, but the walls are transparent for 
 me. 
  That is the experience. 

  I am very afraid to go to any other house.  I never feel to go, 
  because I will be caged in. Such freedom, such abundance, such 
  enormous mastery over space and time is the reality of living in 
  cosmic magnitude. This is living in Vastu building. 
 
 
 
   
  So, builders of the world, listen to the talk that Dr Hagelin 
has 
  just spoken for you.  And build Fortune-Creating Homes in the 
world 
  till the world is structured in terms of heaven. 
   
  The Devatas living in heaven -- the administrators of the 
universe 
  live in heaven.  And, living in heaven, they are able to 
administer 
  the universe without restriction, because they are living in 
  Sthapatya Veda. They are ordained to live in the Sthapatya Veda. 
   
  Sthapatya Veda is that section of the Constitution of the 
 Universe --
   Veda is the Constitution of the Universe, and Sthapatya Veda is 
 the 
  law of stabilizing, the law that stabilizes individuality in 
terms 
 of 
  his cosmic status.
  
  It is such a thing, it's beyond speech. Therefore, a new world 
 will 
  be lived in by the same people, and what they will be? They will 
  never be sick, they will never be shrouded with small things, 
there 
  will be peace unbounded, prosperity unlimited, coherence 
  unimaginable. 
   
  This is Vastu living. Living in Vastu -- it's a very great 
gift. A 
  very great time.  We call the builders of the world to rebuild, 
to 
  reconstruct the world. 
   
  World Movement has a program to reconstruct the world. We are 
  inviting the builders of the world to build Heaven on Earth. It 
 will 
  be Heaven on Earth. … 
   
  I have the experience of all these eighty, ninety years of 
life, 
  living in all these wrong places.  But somehow through the grace 
of 
  Guru Dev, I never jolted from my purpose of life. The purpose of 
 life 
  was to be fully enlightened. So, that was inside, that remains, 
 that 
  was very strong. 
  
  And I was not living permanently one place -- one month here, 
one 
  week here -- but ever since I came to this house, the house 
never 
  left me. Because, it is the same thing, if one begins to live 
one's 
  cosmic status, one cannot leave oneself, one cannot stoop down 
to 
  individual status. 
  
  So Vastu house is an aspect of the knowledge of Total Natural 
Law. 
  It is promoted by the Constitution of the Universe. It is 
promoted 
 by 
  the Will of God, who is responsible for creation. 
  
  Time of speaking is over. I would only say: 'The taste of 
pudding 
 is 
  in eating.' All lifelong I have the experience, those who heard 
and 
  followed the words, they are better off today, and they will be 
  better off the whole of their life. 
  
  We have no other interest, except we want to see the people 
 healthy, 
  happy, and prosperous. I want to see every nation invincible, 
and 
 I'm 
  going to make it.   I'm going to make every nation invincible.
 
 
 
 oh.





[FairfieldLife] Turning off gene makes mice smarter

2007-05-29 Thread larry.potter
May 27, 2007 10:04:39 AM PST

Turning off a gene that has been associated with Alzheimer's disease 
made mice smarter in the lab, researchers said on Sunday in a 
finding that lends new insight on learning and may lead to new drugs 
for memory problems.

They said these mice were far more adept at sensing changes in their 
environment than their mouse brethren.

quot;It's pretty rare when you can make an animal smarter,quot; 
said Dr. James Bibb, assistant professor of psychiatry at the 
University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, who led the study 
published in the journal Nature Neuroscience.

Bibb and colleagues used genetic engineering techniques to breed 
mice that could be manipulated to switch off Cdk5, a gene that 
controls production of a brain enzyme linked to diseases marked by 
the death of neurons in the brain, such as Alzheimer's.

quot;Any time we're losing neurons, Cdk5 may be contributing to 
that process. That has made it an area of great interest,quot; Bibb 
said in a telephone interview.

quot;We have shown that we can turn off a gene in an adult animal. 
That has never been done before,quot; he added. When they had tried 
to breed mice that completely lacked the gene, the pups died at 
birth.

Bibb said they put the mice though a series of tests and found the 
altered mice did better than normal mice.

quot;Everything is more meaningful to these mice,quot; he said. 
quot;The increase in sensitivity to their surroundings seems to 
have made them smarter.quot;

Bibb said the mice were better at tasks based on associated 
learning, Bibb said.

quot;It's the most important kind of learning in the animal 
kingdom. It's how we know where our car is and that is our wife or 
our husband and that's our kids. It's how we connect things,quot; 
he added.

The smart mice were better at learning to navigate a water maze and 
remembering that they got a shock when they were in a certain cage.

quot;It was very clear right off the bat that the loss of Cdk5 made 
them have a much stronger associative memory,quot; Bibb said.

quot;What was really interesting is they not only remembered 
better, but the next day, if you put them back in those same 
circumstances, they noticed they were not getting shocked.quot;

Bibb said his work was inspired by the 1999 discovery of 
quot;Doogiequot; mice, a smarter breed of mice developed at 
Princeton University that were named after the TV program 
quot;Doogie Houser,quot; a show that featured a child prodigy.

Those mice were bred by manipulating NR2B, a gene that also plays a 
role in associative memory.

quot;It turns out Cdk5 was controlling the regulation of 
NR2B,quot; Bibb said.

quot;Maybe by finding these new mechanisms we can find new drugs 
that improve the cognitive performance of people who have 
deficits.quot;

He and colleagues are working on developing drugs that could create 
the same effect without the need for genetic alteration.

quot;There are other cases -- in post-traumatic stress disorder, 
addiction and depression -- where we may want to modulate memory not 
so much to improve it, but to selectively modify it to remove the 
negative memories that are causing the problems. I think that has a 
lot of potential,quot; Bibb said.

However, he said the long-term effects are not yet clear.

quot;If all of your (brain) synapses were magically strengthened 
all the time, that might be good for the short term, but I'm not 
sure if it would be good all the time,quot; he said.

Global Warming is not a scam in my mind, however the media
and popular science painting it as man-made is very much exaggerated.

though there is a climate change, i doubt however that we have any 
significance control over it () ,
it is used in my opinion for foreign political and economical 
agendas, unfortunately some heavy funds are wasted on futile and 
irrelevant research with regard to global warming, while those funds 
are very much needed elsewhere, but if this is what it takes to 
progress alternative and renewable energy sources, maybe it's good 
for the long run.

Lebanon via Hezbollah invaded Israel and started a war cycle.

The conflict began when Hezbollah fired Katyusha rockets and 
mortars at Israeli military positions and border villages, diverting 
attention from another Hezbollah unit that crossed the border and 
abducted two Israeli soldiers and killed three others.[1] Israeli 
troops attempted to rescue the abducted soldiers but were 
unsuccessful.
..

On 11 August 2006, the United Nations Security Council unanimously 
approved UN Resolution 1701 in an effort to end the hostilities. The 
resolution, which was approved by both Lebanese and Israeli 
governments the following days, called for disarmament of Hezbollah, 
for withdrawal of Israel from Lebanon...   (wikipedia.org)

Israel kept it's part of the 1701 resolution, while Hezbollah 
didn't, in fact every day under the eye of the UN, Hezbollah is 
getting weapons mainly from Iran and Syria.

 Absolutely, though I think more approriate would be to say that the
 Israeli defense kicked into action AFTER Iran via Hezbollah - with 
the
 government and people of Lebanon as hostages - embarked on
 indiscriminate killing by shooting rockets into Israel.


I draw my conclusions partly from the numbers of dead. Israel though 
they have a much better PR engine kills ten to one hundred times 
more enemies than their enemies do of them, yet they always position 
themselves as the victims. 

Israel PR sux, it's also a matter of size, Israel can't compete with 
all the many hatrade contries PR machines.

attacked-
 sure, but this back and forth killing goes on constantly, so it was

a nice quote that describes the sanyama and P' Sutra process:

The parallel between the quantum field theory of effortless 
creation and Maharishi's theory of sanyama continues in that both 
involve spontaneous symmetry breaking. The creation of a Goldstone 
boson takes place in a quantum field whenever the influences are 
such as to produce a spontaneous change from a more homogeneous to a 
less homogeneous state. In the regime of consciousness the influence 
of the Patanjali sutra on the wholeness of pure consciousness is 
such as to cause a spontaneous localization of the pure 
consciousness in the direction of a particular result specified by 
Patanjali, that is a symmetry breaking of the consciousness takes 
place whereby the wholeness of consciousness flows into a particular 
location.

Samyama is basically a pulse of attention, hence any session of

 imo, better get rid of the Palys, the planet will be a better 
place.

 see some of the paly's mith:


 Prior to the influx of thousands of eastern European hardworking
 Jews in the second half of XIX c and on, the Land of Israel was
 scarcely populated: majority were religious Jews who lived in the
 holy cities (Tver, Hevron, Tsfat etc.), Druze in the north,
 Bedouins, who wondered all over Negev, Sinai and Tran Jordan
 deserts, and, yes, there were two, I repeat TWO Arab clans. One
 Muslim clan Husseini, and one Christian Nusseibah. That is it. All
 those Arabs, who now call themselves Palestinians Refugees etc.
 are in fact scavengers who invaded Israel from Egypt, Syria,
Lebanon
 etc. looking for the handouts from the Jews. They are grandchildren
 of scavengers and have no historical, moral or any other right in
 the Land of the Jews.
 Palestine?  Why won't these Arabs call themselves Martians, no
wait,
 Lunatics!

That is the saddest most despicable load of tripe I have read for 
a
long time, wrong in every possible way, you have been brainwashed my
friend, well and truly. 

It's very clear that the historic ignorance with a combination of 
strong Arab propaganda
did a good brain wash job on you. See some details below:



 Let us examine the truths here:

 1) There never was a Palestinian state or a Palestinian nation.
 There are no Palestinian people, per se. Rather, these are Arabs
 living in a region that historically has been called many things,
 including Palestine.


Is that a good reason to forcibly evict 50,000 peple from their 
homes?

I have some an Uncle who was stationed there in WW2, he has hideous
stories about the Stern gangs' reign of terror, the original
terrorists-their words not mine. But really, it doesnt matter what P
is called the place was well populated and had been for millenia.  


I doubt that the dude saw the picture for what it is, Palestine land 
at that point
of time was laid waste with little population, Most Arabs living in 
Palestine today are 
not indigenous to the region. It was not until after the Jews had 
changed deserts and 
swamps into a productive and thriving land that the Arabs started 
migrating there.

Just the same the Jews went thru 2000 years, here is a short list 
for you :

135 B.C
Antiochus Epiphanes desecrates Second Jewish Temple; leading to 
Hasmonean Revolt against 
Rome.

70 A.D.
Titus took Jerusalem - second revolt. Over one million Jews killed.

136 A.D.
580,000 men destroyed, 985 towns destroyed - third revolt.

300 A.D.
Purim festival celebrating God's deliverance to Mordecai and the 
Jews through Esther and 
the fasting. Lies spread that Jews kill Christians for sacrifice. 
Emperor Severus also 
said the Jews purchased 90,000 Christians to kill them.

306 A.D.
Council in Spain banned Christians  Jews meeting or marrying.

325 A.D.
Constantine changed the celebration of Easter on the calendar so 
that it did not coincide 
with the Jewish Passover.

379 A.D.
Vicious writing by St. John Chrysostom and St. Ambrose in Milan who 
said: The Jews are 
the most worthless of all men. They are lecherous, greedy, 
rapacious. They are perfidious 
murderers of Christ. They worship the Devil. Their religion is a 
sickness. The Jews are 
the odious assassins of Christ and for killing God there is no 
expiation possible, no 
indulgence or pardon. Christians may never cease vengeance, and the 
Jew must live

for two reasons: One is the gimmick of giving a gift – a piece of 
land on the moon.

The other reason, he continued, is that now, we see that this is 
becoming more realistic after NASA's decision to construct a manned 
base on the moon by the year 2020. Some people think that in a few 
years from now this property may be more valuable. 

 Yaron agrees that at the moment there is nothing to be done with 
the plot, but said that in the future it may be possible to do 
something with it, to realize the purchase one way or another. After 
all, it is a matter of foresight, 70 years ago if someone had 
said 'buy land in Israel' people would have asked why should we? 
 
Upon purchase, the buyer gets an ownership certificate and a 
photographed map of the purchased area. So far some 55.5 million 
acres of land on the moon have been sold to people all over the 
world. 

For those who are interesting in making a purchase, at the moment 
the property inventory has been sold out.

New Evidence of Liquid Methane on Saturn's Moon

By JOHN NOBLE WILFORD
Published: January 3, 2007

As scientists predicted but have had a hard time proving, the 
surface of Titan, Saturn's largest moon, appears to be dotted with 
an abundance of lakes of liquid methane. The lakes are more 
intriguing evidence of the active phenomena at play on the only moon 
in the solar system that has a dense atmosphere.
The Lakes of Titan (Nature)

The discovery, reported today by an international team of 
researchers, was made by a radar survey of Titan's high northern 
latitudes by the Cassini spacecraft, which has been orbiting Saturn 
and its retinue of satellites since July 2004. One of the mission's 
major objectives is the investigation of Titan's environment, 
thought to be similar to conditions on the primordial Earth.

In a detailed description of the find scheduled for publication 
Thursday in the journal Nature, the scientists said the radar 
imaging system detected more than 75 dark patches in the landscape 
toward Titan's northern polar region. The patches, they said, 
indicated smooth surfaces in an otherwise rugged topography, 
suggesting lake beds either partly dry or filled with liquid.

These smooth surfaces, more or less circular and ranging in diameter 
from 2 to 40 miles, are associated with channels that appear to have 
been formed by flowing liquids, presumably tributaries to the lakes. 
Methane exists in Titan's atmosphere and, in the extreme cold of 
high latitudes, is expected to rain on the surface and be present as 
liquids in subsurface reservoirs.

The discovery team concluded that the radar images, made on a close 
pass of the moon in July, provide definitive evidence for the 
presence of lakes on the surface of Titan.

When the spacecraft conducted its first radar search above 70 
degrees north latitude, Ellen R. Stofan, leader of the team, said in 
an interview, We saw a huge swath of the surface just covered with 
lakes, like Minnesota.

Dr. Stofan is a planetary scientist at Proxemy Research, a 
contractor in Virginia to the National Aeronautics and Space 
Administration, and at University College London. Other team members 
include researchers at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, 
Calif., which directs the Cassini mission; the University of 
Arizona, and several European institutions.

In an accompanying article in the journal, Christophe Sotin, a 
planetary scientist at the University of Nantes in France who was 
not involved in the research, wrote that the lakes and other mission 
findings were strong evidence that methane on Titan plays the role 
of water on Earth. It is the second most abundant component of 
Titan's atmosphere, after nitrogen.

The discovery, Dr. Sotin concluded, adds to the weight of evidence 
that processes on and beneath Titan's surface must be similar to 
those dominating the early evolution of any Earth-like planet.

As far as we know, there is only one planetary body that displays 
more dynamism than Titan, he wrote. Its name is Earth.

Finding large bodies of liquid methane and probably ethane on Titan, 
in lakes or perhaps vast seas, had long been hypothesized, based on 
telescope observations of the moon's smoggy methane-rich atmosphere 
and by the two Voyager spacecraft that passed close some 30 years 
ago. But the Cassini remote-sensing instruments had failed to detect 
an ocean, though they and the European Space Agency's Huygens lander 
did pick up traces of the channels where liquids had apparently 
flowed across the surface.

On Cassini's previous encounters with Titan, the smog-penetrating 
radar found no smaller liquid bodies, until it observed the northern 
latitudes from 70 to 83 degrees. At present, it is winter in Titan's 
north. Methane is one of the few molecules to exist as a liquid in 
such cold conditions, scientists said, and is the most plausible 
explanation for the smooth, dark surfaces in the radar images.

Dr. Stofan said that the lake depressions could be volcanic craters 
or sinkholes; very few craters gouged out by meteorite impacts have 
been detected on Titan. Their roughly circular shapes and steep-
sided rims are typical of volcanic depressions. Surface collapses, 
as in sinkholes, could fill the lakes with liquids from interior 
chambers, like aquifers on Earth.

In both cases, scientists said, methane vapor condensing and 
precipitating out of the cold Titan sky was probably a significant 
source of the liquid in the lakes.

Jonathan I. Lunine of the University of Arizona, another member of 
the discovery team, described in an interview what the lakes 
probably look like. The methane liquid would be transparent, enough 
to see the dark hydrocarbon sediments on the floor of shallow lakes. 
The liquid would be less viscous than water, perhaps like gasoline.

Overhead, aerosols in the upper atmosphere presumably cast a dim 
orange light on the lake. In the dark of winter, one would need a

 But then again, if it will help rid the world of a few Zionists 
maybe 
 we should keep quiet.



imo, better get rid of the Palys, the planet will be a better place.

see some of the paly's mith:
 

Prior to the influx of thousands of eastern European hardworking 
Jews in the second half of XIX c and on, the Land of Israel was 
scarcely populated: majority were religious Jews who lived in the 
holy cities (Tver, Hevron, Tsfat etc.), Druze in the north, 
Bedouins, who wondered all over Negev, Sinai and Tran Jordan 
deserts, and, yes, there were two, I repeat TWO Arab clans. One 
Muslim clan Husseini, and one Christian Nusseibah. That is it. All 
those Arabs, who now call themselves Palestinians Refugees etc. 
are in fact scavengers who invaded Israel from Egypt, Syria, Lebanon 
etc. looking for the handouts from the Jews. They are grandchildren 
of scavengers and have no historical, moral or any other right in 
the Land of the Jews.
Palestine?  Why won't these Arabs call themselves Martians, no wait, 
Lunatics! 

Let us examine the truths here: 

1) There never was a Palestinian state or a Palestinian nation. 
There are no Palestinian people, per se. Rather, these are Arabs 
living in a region that historically has been called many things, 
including Palestine. 

2) Israel did not go to war against a Palestinian state and occupy 
its land. Rather, Israel was attacked by six Arab countries at once. 
She defended herself, defeated her attackers, and won the so-called 
territories, not from the Palestinians, but from Jordan and Egypt. 

3) Jerusalem was never the capital of any state but Israel. It was 
certainly never the capital of a country that never existed. Why 
should the Palestinians get any part of it? Because they want it? 
Because they have terrorists? 

4) Jerusalem, under the current Israeli control, is a free and open 
city. Israel, as a democracy, guarantees freedom of religion within 
its borders. Contrast this fact with areas that have come under 
Palestinian occupation. What percentage of Christians have left in 
recent years because they cannot stand the harassment and 
persecution? 

5) Most Arabs living in Palestine today are not indigenous to the 
region. It was not until after the Jews had changed deserts and 
swamps into a productive and thriving land that the Arabs started 
migrating there. Arafat himself was born and raised in Cairo, Egypt. 
Did you know that? 

The belief that giving the Palestinians a state will bring peace is 
a delusion. 

Unless the Arabs recognize and accept these truths, even if they are 
given a state of their own, and no matter how many agreements and 
treaties they sign, they will always feel wronged, cheated, and 
forced into giving up what they now claim is theirs. They will 
continue to plot and look for an opportunity to destroy Israel in 
order to take back what they claim is theirs, especially the younger 
generation that has been brainwashed to hate the occupying enemy. 
Whether there is a Palestinian state or not, there will be no peace. 

Only a massive and ongoing re-education of the Arab people to these 
truths will enable meaningful negotiations to begin, followed by a 
lasting peace between Arabs and Jews. It is therefore critical that 
everyone who has an audience, whether in print or other media, use 
the forum they have available to repeat these truths again and again 
until they reach the consciousness of those waging war in the Middle 
East

[FairfieldLife] What is the relationship between God and Devatas?

2007-01-01 Thread larry.potter
MAHARISHI: Just as in any government there is a head of state, there 
is a prime minister, there are assemblies - hierarchy.

Wherever there is organization, wherever there is action, there is
hierarchical organization. Like that we can understand in terms of 
different devatas.

All the different devatas - it will be easier to partition the range 
of devatas in two values: silence and dynamism. Silence is upheld by 
Shiva and dynamism is upheld by Vishnu. And between the two  
Ganapati holds the rains of any coordination wherever, so that there 
is no lack of coordination.  It is very beautiful.

There is nothing for us. God in terms of anything. We can talk about 
God, we can define about God in terms of anything. The same way in 
terms of anything
we can talk about devatas, of Shiva and Vishnu. There are Ganas of 
Shiva. 
Gana means like the sparks of intelligence. There is one ocean of
intelligence and then the sprouting, single waves of intelligence. 
Waves of intelligence, they distinguish themself from one another. 
So there is a field of many in this way.
We can talk in terms of many, many devatas...

I'm not sure that we can conclude from the database realm to
the spiritual. that being said it is true that relational d.b. is 
being used far more than hierarchical. The main reason is that it 
was difficult to model a many-to-many relationship, However, we now 
that in a web world that demands quick access to data, XML is being 
used to facilitate this,and XML has, of course, a hierarchical 
structure and for good reasons:
speed, better handling of data elements, easier administration, and 
handling of unexpected elements.

 Just to try to discuss a spiritual topic for a change :-),
 government (or organization of any kind) does *not*

 generally more efficient and flexible than hierarchical
 databases, organizations that are run relationally

 Walking home from that bus ride, she felt like a cloud of

behind and to the left of the body and completely separate from 
body, mind and emotions. The witness was constant and so was FEAR, 
the fear of complete physical dissolution. The witnessing continued 
for several months, even during sleep, and Segal had to endure the

frequent sleeps.  .. 


I find SUZANNE's description to have contradictions, but maybe some

If Suzanne got to such detached state of non-localize witnessing
as she describes, how can she feel fear and terror at the same time?

Fear is only a delusion of a localized consciousness , meaning,
attachment to the boundaries while some of her description
suggests pure witnessing state, non boundaries state.

maybe she was just in a transition states and her description
is a mere of what her mind was telling her what she is witnessing,

 What I find most interesting about the Enron story is someone 
named 
 John Chanos who is a Wall Street Trader who was one of the first 
to 
 see that Enron was built on fantasy.  He ended up making 10s of 
 millions because he shorted Enron stock (and advised his clients 
to 
 do the same) when it was at its peak.
 
 But Chanos did it the old-fashioned way: he actually studied 
Enron's 
 financial statements.  He saw anomalies and instead of like 99% of 
 everyone else who was trading Enron stock and were euphoric and on 
 the bandwagon about its success, he rolled up his sleeves and went 
 into all the little details, found it to be a house of cards, and 
 sold short.
 
 Which begs the question: if Chanos could see the truth, why 
couldn't 
 the others?  Were they too lazy? 

while they were making money they didn't care for the details,
the truth just got in the way.
(also many working guys don't know how to read these
financial statements. Enron, as you know, was big corp and I'm sure 
it was not an easy task to figure out what's going on.)

Water is set in 1938, when India was still under the colonial rule 
of the British, and when the marriage of children to older men was 
commonplace. When a man died, his widow would be forced to spend the 
rest of her life in a widow's ashram, an institution for widows to 
make amends for the sins from her previous life that supposedly 
caused her husband's death.

are you familiar with Deepa Mehta's films?

[FairfieldLife] No Clash / Wafa

2006-10-12 Thread larry.potter

[ i respect Wafa and think she is the best thing that happen to Islam
in the recent decade.  She is a true free thinker. JMHO ]


2/21/2006 Clip No. 1050 
 
Arab-American Psychiatrist Wafa Sultan: There is No Clash of 
Civilizations but a Clash between the Mentality of the Middle Ages 
and That of the 21st Century 
 
Following are excerpts from an interview with Arab-American 
psychiatrist Wafa Sultan. The interview was aired on Al-Jazeera TV 
on February 21, 2006

. 
Wafa Sultan: The clash we are witnessing around the world is not a 
clash of religions, or a clash of civilizations. It is a clash 
between two opposites, between two eras. It is a clash between a 
mentality that belongs to the Middle Ages and another mentality that 
belongs to the 21st century. It is a clash between civilization and 
backwardness, between the civilized and the primitive, between 
barbarity and rationality. It is a clash between freedom and 
oppression, between democracy and dictatorship. It is a clash 
between human rights, on the one hand, and the violation of these 
rights, on other hand. It is a clash between those who treat women 
like beasts, and those who treat them like human beings. What we see 
today is not a clash of civilizations. Civilizations do not clash, 
but compete.

[...]

Host: I understand from your words that what is happening today is a 
clash between the culture of the West, and the backwardness and 
ignorance of the Muslims?

Wafa Sultan: Yes, that is what I mean.

[...]

Host: Who came up with the concept of a clash of civilizations? Was 
it not Samuel Huntington? It was not Bin Laden. I would like to 
discuss this issue, if you don't mind...

Wafa Sultan: The Muslims are the ones who began using this 
expression. The Muslims are the ones who began the clash of 
civilizations. The Prophet of Islam said: I was ordered to fight 
the people until they believe in Allah and His Messenger. When the 
Muslims divided the people into Muslims and non-Muslims, and called 
to fight the others until they believe in what they themselves 
believe, they started this clash, and began this war. In order to 
stop this war, they must reexamine their Islamic books and 
curricula, which are full of calls for takfir and fighting the 
infidels.

My colleague has said that he never offends other people's beliefs. 
What civilization on the face of this earth allows him to call other 
people by names that they did not choose for themselves? Once, he 
calls them Ahl Al-Dhimma, another time he calls them the People of 
the Book, and yet another time he compares them to apes and pigs, 
or he calls the Christians those who incur Allah's wrath. Who told 
you that they are People of the Book? They are not the People of 
the Book, they are people of many books. All the useful scientific 
books that you have today are theirs, the fruit of their free and 
creative thinking. What gives you the right to call them those who 
incur Allah's wrath, or those who have gone astray, and then come 
here and say that your religion commands you to refrain from 
offending the beliefs of others?

I am not a Christian, a Muslim, or a Jew. I am a secular human 
being. I do not believe in the supernatural, but I respect others' 
right to believe in it.

Dr. Ibrahim Al-Khouli: Are you a heretic?

Wafa Sultan: You can say whatever you like. I am a secular human 
being who does not believe in the supernatural...

Dr. Ibrahim Al-Khouli: If you are a heretic, there is no point in 
rebuking you, since you have blasphemed against Islam, the Prophet, 
and the Koran...

Wafa Sultan: These are personal matters that do not concern you.

[...]

Wafa Sultan: Brother, you can believe in stones, as long as you 
don't throw them at me. You are free to worship whoever you want, 
but other people's beliefs are not your concern, whether they 
believe that the Messiah is God, son of Mary, or that Satan is God, 
son of Mary. Let people have their beliefs.

[...]

Wafa Sultan: The Jews have come from the tragedy (of the Holocaust), 
and forced the world to respect them, with their knowledge, not with 
their terror, with their work, not their crying and yelling. 
Humanity owes most of the discoveries and science of the 19th and 
20th centuries to Jewish scientists. 15 million people, scattered 
throughout the world, united and won their rights through work and 
knowledge. We have not seen a single Jew blow himself up in a German 
restaurant. We have not seen a single Jew destroy a church. We have 
not seen a single Jew protest by killing people. The Muslims have 
turned three Buddha statues into rubble. We have not seen a single 
Buddhist burn down a Mosque, kill a Muslim, or burn down an embassy. 
Only the Muslims defend their beliefs by burning down churches, 
killing people, and destroying embassies. This path will not yield 
any results. The Muslims must ask themselves what they can do for 
humankind, before they demand that humankind respect them.

Tehran and Damascus are gearing up for a pre-emptive Syrian 
attack on
  Israel to ward off a US strike on Iran's nuclear sites
  
  
[http://www.debka.com/photos/3357.jpg]
  Our military and Washington sources read as preparatory 
justification
  the Syrian ruler Bashar Asad's statement Saturday, Oct. 7, that 
he
  expects an Israeli attack.
  
  He was speaking in an interview to Kuwaiti paper al-Anba.
  
  Asad's Iranian-backed war plan would serve the purpose of forcing
  the Americans to divide their military assets between a strike 
against
  Iran and the defense of their allies in the Persia Gulf, Israel 
and US
  forces in Iraq. Both are seriously looking at a Syrian attack on 
the
  Golan which would escalate into a full-blown Syrian-Israeli war 
and a
  second Hizballah assault from Lebanon.
  
  Asad's remark that during the Lebanon hostilities, he was under
  pressure from the Syrian population to go to war against Israel 
and
  liberate the Golan is the most direct threat of belligerency of 
all his
  four Golan statements in the last month. He is implying that he 
stood up
  to the pressure once but may not do so again. And for the 
benefit of the
  Americans, the Europeans, the Saudis and the Egyptians - all of 
whom are
  pretty fed up with him – Asad is posing as the picture of
  self-restraint; anyone else in his place, he implies, would have 
taken
  advantage of the Lebanon war and made a grab for the Golan. 
Therefore,
  he is saying, he deserves to be treated with the respect due to a
  strategic asset by Western and moderate Arab powers instead of 
being
  targeted for an ouster.
  
  The Syrian ruler would not threaten war without guarantees from 
Iran.
  According to DEBKAfile's sources, Asad and Iran's supreme ruler
  Ayatollah Ali Khamenei are prompted by the following motives:
  
  1. Tehran is not prepared to wait passively for the Americans to 
build
  up their assault force in the Gulf and strike its nuclear 
facilities. A
  pre-emptive attack would suit them better.
  
  2. Tehran and Damascus have not missed the debilitating crisis 
in which
  Israel's political and military leadership are sunk since the
  Lebanon war. They do not propose to wait until the IDF pulls 
itself
  together enough to handle fresh aggression.
  
  3. Both accept Israel's deputy prime minister Shimon Peres'
  assessment that Israel's cities are not prepared for missile 
attack.
  Iran and Syria take it for granted that Israeli leaders 
understand they
  cannot afford to launch missiles against either one of them for 
fear of
  reprisal in kind.
  
  4. Syria believes that if Hizballah could stand up to the 
Israeli army
  in Lebanon, its commandoes can capture sections of the Golan and 
walk
  off with an easy victory.
  
  5. Tehran figures that the Bush administration is coming to the 
end of
  its patience in Iraq and preparing for a major review of its 
position
  there. The influential U.S. Senate Armed Services Committee 
Chairman,
  John Warner, said Friday that Iraq's government had 60 to 90 
days to
  control the violence that threatens civil war or the United 
States would
  have to reconsider its options. This gives the Maliki government 
in
  Baghdad up to December or January to de-escalate if not halt the
  sectarian war engulfing the country.
  
  Iran, Syria and Hizballah would not be averse to disrupting the 
American
  Iraq timeline by attacking Israel and putting the Bush 
administration on
  the spot, forced to address three warfronts simultaneously.

I sure do hope that they are wrong on this one, or that new events

east.

wrote:

 With deepest gratitude to MMY and Guru Dev, we wish to correct 
some 
 Understandings of Brahman we gave here last year. Within the 27 
 Nakshatra-states, the middle third or 9 central ones are those of 
 Brahma(n), or Light, or Consciousness:
 
 Brahma-Shiva-Shiva (B-S-S) or Mahaturiya
 Brahma-Shiva-Brahma (B-S-B) or Maharishi (Brahman)
 Brahma-Shiva-Vishnu (B-S-V) or Mahadevata (Krishna)
 Brahma-Brahma-Shiva (B-B-S) or Mahachandas (Shiva)
 Brahma-Brahma-Brahma (B-B-B) or Solar Angel, Lamp at the Door
 Brahma-Brahma-Vishnu (B-B-V), or chandas (U.C.)
 Brahma-Vishnu-Shiva (B-V-S), or devata (G.C.)
 Brahma-Vishnu-Brahma (B-V-B), or rishi (C.C.)
 Brahma-Vishnu-Vishnu (B-V-V), or turiya (T.C.)
 
 Within these 9, the centermost one is Brahma-Brahma-Brahma (B-B-
B), 
 the Lamp at the Door, the Solar Angel who resides in the Sacred 
 Heart (Solar Plexus) as the intermediary between the Absolute 
 (Rudra, Shiva, or Purusha) and the Relative (Indra, Vishnu or 
 Shakti). 
 
 In truth, this is the only state of Consciousness that actually 
 exists -- the supreme radiance of the perfect Now, the juncture-
 point of Heaven and Earth. From here, we can (eventually) see that 
 all the states that led here -- T.C. or Turiya (Brahma-Vishnu-
 Vishnu; B-V-V), C.C. or Rishi (Brahma-Vishnu-Brahma; B-V-B) G. 
C. 
 or Devata(Brahma-Vishnu-Shiva; B-V-S), and U.C. 
 or Chandas(Brahma-Brahma-Vishnu; B-B-V) are but identification 
 with a time-bound particle or I within Our wholeness. We have 
been 
 approaching the Now from an (unconscious) identification with a 
 particle on the Relative side. 
 
 But in actuality, there has been a very simple, innocent, 
 unqualified  Absolute side of Us approaching this Now as the 
 Wholeness or container of the experience(s), in perfect 
reflection 
 to the Relative side. When our particle-self thinks it is in T.C. 
(B-
 V-V), our Wholeness is Mahaturiya (B-S-S); when our particle-
self 
 attains C.C. or Rishi (B-V-B), our Wholeness is Brahman itself: 
 that particle's Witness, its Maharishi (B-S-B); when our 
 particle-self attains G.C. or Devata (B-V-S), our Wholeness is 
 that particle's loving Personal God or Krishna-Avatar, 
 its Mahadevata (B-S-V); and when our particle-self attains U.C. 
 or Chandas (B-B-V), our Wholeness is that particle's Shiva, 
 its Mahachandas (B-B-S). 
 
 These two sides -- the Absolute and the Relative, the Whole and 
 the Particle -- culminate in their fusion in the mid-most state of 
 Brahma-Brahma-Brahma (B-B-B). The simple, ordinary, very quiet 
 thought we had from the Absolute side with reference to nurturing 
 our particles creates the intensely devotional appreciation of 
that 
 thought from the Devata or sensory particle side, and the 
 corresponding display of that thought as the Reality of the Outer, 
 so that the rishi, devata, and chandas are fully appreciated as 
 OneSelf. 
 
 Thus we can say that C.C. is our particle's appreciation of our 
 Brahman-Self; G.C. is our particle's appreciation of our Krishna-
 Self, and U.C. is our particle's appreciation of our Shiva-Self -- 
 all culminating in ourSelf as Brahma(n), the Perfect Light of the 
 Sacred Heart. This is our natural, simple, a priori state of 
 consciousness. This is what we have always been, and what we 
always 
 will be, regardless of the stories our Wholeness and our particles 
 have been telling us/themselves.
 
 From here, the process continues -- with any and every particle we 
 find within ourSelf. We first find ourselves identifying 
 unconsciously with that particle, giving that particle unconscious 
 sovereignty -- at this time the particle is in Ignorance in our 
 Brahman. Then, we realize that this is not Us, but a particle 
within 
 Us -- we then become that particle's Witness, its conscious 
Brahman -
 - while it is identifying with C.C. Then, we give that particle 
our 
 loving attention, warming it up into its a priori bliss, becoming 
 its personal God or Avatar or Krishna, while it is identifying 
with 
 G.C. Then it perceives its ultimate identity with us in 
Shiva/U.C., 
 and we finally come back to primordial Radiant Self. We are 
 constantly throwing off particles of not-self, and re-integrating 
 them back into ourSelf, as pulsations of our Now into all 9 (and 
 eventually 27) states -- this is how we learn to appreciate 
ourSelf 
 and our various qualities...
 
 Brahmarishi Indradevata Rudrachandas

 In fact, I believe that Tom Cruise should have got the Oscar

 was much harder and more complex to do than the predictable 
 handicapped spotlight role Hoffman got.

absolutely, can't agree more. that being said I am Hoffman fan,
I can't recall a movie that he played that I didn't liked.
Straw dogs, marathon man were great, i liked him in 
Meet the Fockers which was hilarious.


 
 And I'm amazed at how good Pitt is in things such as Snatch 
where 
 he played a mumbling Irish Gypsy prizefighter or Troy in which 
he 
 played Achilles where his physicality alone should have won him 
the 
 Oscar.


yup,not like Tom, i do believe that Pitt get the much credit though.

[FairfieldLife] Tehran and Damascus are gearing up for a pre-emptive Syrian attack

2006-10-09 Thread larry.potter



Tehran and Damascus are gearing up for a pre-emptive Syrian attack on Israel to ward off a US strike on Iran's nuclear sites
 
Our military and Washington sources read as preparatory justification the Syrian ruler Bashar Asad's statement Saturday, Oct. 7, that he expects an Israeli attack. 
He was speaking in an interview to Kuwaiti paper al-Anba. 
Asad's Iranian-backed war plan would serve the purpose of forcing the Americans to divide their military assets between a strike against Iran and the defense of their allies in the Persia Gulf, Israel and US forces in Iraq. Both are seriously looking at a Syrian attack on the Golan which would escalate into a full-blown Syrian-Israeli war and a second Hizballah assault from Lebanon. 
Asad's remark that during the Lebanon hostilities, he was under pressure from the Syrian population to go to war against Israel and liberate the Golan is the most direct threat of belligerency of all his four Golan statements in the last month. He is implying that he stood up to the pressure once but may not do so again. And for the benefit of the Americans, the Europeans, the Saudis and the Egyptians - all of whom are pretty fed up with him – Asad is posing as the picture of self-restraint; anyone else in his place, he implies, would have taken advantage of the Lebanon war and made a grab for the Golan. Therefore, he is saying, he deserves to be treated with the respect due to a strategic asset by Western and moderate Arab powers instead of being targeted for an ouster. 
The Syrian ruler would not threaten war without guarantees from Iran. According to DEBKAfile's sources, Asad and Iran's supreme ruler Ayatollah Ali Khamenei are prompted by the following motives: 
1. Tehran is not prepared to wait passively for the Americans to build up their assault force in the Gulf and strike its nuclear facilities. A pre-emptive attack would suit them better. 
2. Tehran and Damascus have not missed the debilitating crisis in which Israel's political and military leadership are sunk since the Lebanon war. They do not propose to wait until the IDF pulls itself together enough to handle fresh aggression. 
3. Both accept Israel's deputy prime minister Shimon Peres' assessment that Israel's cities are not prepared for missile attack. Iran and Syria take it for granted that Israeli leaders understand they cannot afford to launch missiles against either one of them for fear of reprisal in kind. 
4. Syria believes that if Hizballah could stand up to the Israeli army in Lebanon, its commandoes can capture sections of the Golan and walk off with an easy victory. 
5. Tehran figures that the Bush administration is coming to the end of its patience in Iraq and preparing for a major review of its position there. The influential U.S. Senate Armed Services Committee Chairman, John Warner, said Friday that Iraq's government had 60 to 90 days to control the violence that threatens civil war or the United States would have to reconsider its options. This gives the Maliki government in Baghdad up to December or January to de-escalate if not halt the sectarian war engulfing the country. 
Iran, Syria and Hizballah would not be averse to disrupting the American Iraq timeline by attacking Israel and putting the Bush administration on the spot, forced to address three warfronts simultaneously.

[FairfieldLife] UNIFIL seems to be doing NOTHING against resumption of Hizballah’s rearmament

2006-10-04 Thread larry.potter
On Yom Kippur, Oct. 2, 24 hours after the last Israeli soldier left 
South Lebanon and the day before UNIFIL published its rules of 
engagement, Hizballah placed roadblocks on all the approaches to the 
central sector of the South and the entrances to the towns and 
villages reoccupied by its forces and their rocket units. 

These enclaves were declared closed military zones. 

DEBKAfile's exclusive military and Western intelligence sources 
report that neither the Lebanese army which moved south nor the 
international peacekeepers of UNIFIL venture to set foot in these 
enclaves. Nor did they raise a finger to block the first broad-
daylight consignment of advanced Iranian weapons to be delivered in 
Lebanon via Syria since the August 14 ceasefire. 

This coordinated Hizballah-Iranian-Syrian ploy has brought into 
question the point of UN Security Council Resolution 1701 which was 
to prevent the resumption of hostilities and Hizballah's rearmament 
while helping the Beirut government and army assert its sovereignty 
in the South. It has also made a mockery of the UN Force and its 
missions. 

These developments effectively assign UN Security Council resolution 
1701 to the same dustbin as resolution 1559 which ordered Hizballah 
disarmed. 

It is especially noted that the Israeli government has made no 
military or diplomatic response to these violations, or even 
informed the public that Hizballah has redeployed in the precise 
positions from which it blitzed Haifa, Nahariya, Carmiel, Acre and 
W. Galilee for more than a month. ...

[FairfieldLife] FBI: Hizbullah still a threat

2006-09-28 Thread larry.potter

US counterterror experts testify that group continues to threaten 
Lebanese government, Israel and has ability to launch an attack on 
the US as well. FBI official: Hizbullah sympathizers in US raise 
money through money laundering, drug trafficking and fraud
Associated Press

US Counterterrorism officials on Thursday testified that 
Hizbullah 's capable, well-trained fighters continue to threaten the 
survival of Lebanon's government, Israel and US interests around the 
world. 

Frank Urbancic, a State Department counterterrorism official, told 
the House of Representatives' International Relations Committee that 
Hizbullah enjoys a symbiotic relationship with Iran and Syria , 
receiving money, arms and training. 

Counterterrorism official with the Federal Bureau of Investigation, 
John Kavanagh, called Hizbullah one of the world's most capable 
terrorist groups, A well-trained guerrilla force that is proficient 
in military tactics and weaponry. 

Hizbullah's leader Hassan Nasrallah recently told thousands of 
supporters that the group still has 20,000 rockets. 


Threat to US?

Kavanagh said that although Hizbullah has the ability to launch an 
attack on the United States, it has not done so since the 1996 
attack on the Khobar Towers dormitory in Saudi Arabia that killed 19 
US military personnel. Hizbullah sympathizers in the United States, 
Kavanagh said, have laundered money, trafficked drugs and engaged in 
bank and credit card fraud. 

Hizbullah has acted as a willing partner in Iran's long-standing 
efforts to combat US interests it perceives as at odds with its 
own, Urbancic said. That relationship, he testified, remained firm 
throughout the 34 days of fighting between Israel and Hizbullah that 
ended with a cease-fire last month. 

We believe that Hizbullah's decision to exacerbate the conflict 
with indiscriminate rocket attacks into Israel targeting Israeli 
civilians could not have happened without at least the tacit support 
of Tehran, Urbancic said. Hizbullah's military profile has recently 
dipped in the south, he said, although it was unclear to officials 
if that was because of po  
litical concerns or losses suffered in the war. 

He said that Hizbullah has deep roots and broad support, noting 
its quick reconstruction and humanitarian work after the fighting 
with Israel ended, Well in advance of international donor efforts. 

A US indictment alleges that a smuggling ring in the state of 
Michigan dealt in contraband cigarettes and other items, steering 
some of the profits to Hizbullah guerrillas.

 This is Pre US election Propaganda. 

tell it to the FBI, I'm sure they realize you know better
and that they can't fool you. After all you have better
information resources and did so much research. lol

as for the rest, please don't let the facts confuse you, 
after all 'every thing in life is propaganda's when it's convenient..
 


If you haven't noticed there is a 
 strong propaganda offensive going on currently to convince the US 
 voters that they should renew and escalate their fear of 
terrorism, 
 and that negative events in the Middle East are the result of 
 terrorist groups vs. the destabilizing efforts of the US in Iraq, 
and 
 Israel in Lebanon and Palestine.
 
 Israel has 75 to 250 nuclear weapons, and undertakes targeted 
 assassinations regularly, which just happen to kill innocent 
people 
 regularly. This goes much further in destabilizing the Middle East 
 that any other single group.

  well, congrats to the left, you seem to prove Horowitz's

 Though strange bedfellows, America's liberals and radical Muslims 
 stand on suspiciously similar ground in refusing to condemn 
Islamis 
 terrorism, in criticizing America and the West, and in opposing 
efforts 
 to export captialism and democracy.
 
 Excuse me?  Refusing to condemn Islamic terrorism?


oh yeh,
The anti-American sentiment among leftists is stronger than ever. 
I'm not referring to the liberals, who are motivated by love of 
country, but to the left\extreme left in US.
leftism is part of the academic curricula (and not just chomsky) but 
not only, it includes journalists, movie stars and so on.

[FairfieldLife] Unholy Alliance: Radical Islam and the American Left / David Horowitz

2006-09-25 Thread larry.potter
I got the book Unholy Alliance: Radical Islam and the American 
Left  today, which i wonder if anyone read and/or have opinion 
about.

The irony is that i just found out that Chavez very much liked Noam 
Chomsky's book,
Hegemony or Survival and recommended it.

well, congrats to the left, you seem to prove Horowitz's points.



Chomsky's book: Plug by Chavez proves lucrative 

Venezuela's president reference to Chomsky's book on US during UN 
speech results in huge boost to book's sales 

Merav Yudilovitch and AFP Published:  09.25.06, 18:16  

Author Noam Chomsky's Hegemony or Survival: America's Quest for 
Global Dominance remained perched atop of Amazon.com's bestseller 
list, after its plug last week by Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez 
during a fiery UN speech condemning US President George W. Bush.

The popular online company showed the 2003 book still as its biggest 
seller, after having claimed the top spot Friday following Chavez's 
 
recommendation of it as an excellent book to help us understand 
what has been happening in the world throughout the 20th century ... 
and the greatest threat looming over our planet.

to close the circle, adding that Chavez friendship with part of 
Radical Islam is not a bit surprising and imo suggests that
it's not about religion but more about growing 'pure' hatred
and ignorance as to the ways to soften it.

 Because women and men are not the same and the law should reflect

 Family law is a perfect example: it is quite biased -- as it 
should 
 be -- to the mother when it comes to child custody.
 

should it be biased in the current twisted manner?
where custody automatic goes to the mother while the
father is the ATM machine. 

many men are more than capable and willing to take care
of their children.

 A woman (or man) who chases 14-year-olds, especailly when they are 
professionally 
 beautiful (as was the case with the former model) obviously has 
severe emotional 
 problems. Getting involved romatically with a 14-year-old is never 
a good idea (even for 
 other 14-year-olds!), but is a sign of serious emotional/mental 
issues for a 26-year-o;ld 
 and to even hint that those issues won't reflect back on the 14-
year-old is silly, at best.


are you suggesting that I've said otherwise..?

 How?

the boy is too young, not emotionally developed enough, hence can  be
emotionally manipulated ,developed dependency, deteriorate into 
depression, drugs and so on.

of course it also depends on the specific personality and his 
emotional stance.  to some boys it could boost their false ego.

 Just as a question, do you really think that
 even in the TM movement they'll be able to
 find 2000 people who have so little going for
 them in their lives that they'll be able to
 put those lives on hold for a year for a
 measly 500 bucks a month?
 

no, I don't; but the I can't make that assumption,
some TMers are very successful in life and some are very poor,
not much in the middle...

 I'm not convinced they'll hit the numbers.
 But if they do, I'm concerned about the long-
 term effects on the 2000 losers who do take
 them up on this offer. What are they going
 to do upon re-entering reality after a year
 of essentially being institutionalized?
 

maybe so, remember we are talking about adult people
here, most of them probably smart above the average.


The whole thing looks to me like another TMO PR,
been there done that...

 I'm thinking Debbie Henning X 2000.

Somalia: Italian nun's murder may be linked to Pope, official says 

Published:  09.17.06, 15:06 

The killing of an Italian Catholic nun in Mogadishu on Sunday may well 
be linked to anger among Muslims about Pope Benedict's recent remarks 
on Islam, a senior source among Somalia's Islamists said. 

There is a very high possibility the people who killed her were 
angered by the Catholic Pope's recent comments against Islam, the 
source said. (Reuters)

I'm not entirely sure the leaders of Iran, those
who would be in a position to use nuclear weapons
if they had them, actually believe in the ideology
they spout.

I'm not entirely sure myself, but why shouldn't we believe
Iran leaders when they spout their Nazi ideology?
 

I'm even less sure our own U.S. leaders really think
Iran's leaders hold those beliefs.

We were led into one disastrous war under false
pretenses, and now those responsible seem to want
to do it again, beyond all reason.

Frankly, I think replacing our leaders would bring
us back from the brink and give everyone some
breathing room to sort out the saber-rattling and
figure out what is really in our, and their, best
interests.

i hope so, but just note that the radical Islam ideology
started way before our current government took place.

Whether we can do that in time to forestell another,
even greater disaster is a different question.

right, i stated that here myself several times and it is true.
what is deafening is the non violent Muslim silence about radical
Islam and it's terrorism. Why are they letting them hijack Islam 
from them...

[FairfieldLife] Re: Invincible America?

2006-07-30 Thread larry.potter
I'm not sure where you got the idea that Israel sees
itself as invincible ?  Being forced to defend yourself
is far from a feeling of invincibility.

invincible means being able to neutralize the enemy
before a war take place. Once you are in a war situation both 
sides have casualties, both sides lose, hence it's far from being
invincible to begin with.

I also doubt if Americans imagine that they are invincible after 
9/11 and with today's easy access to WMD.
America, and rightly so, sees  itself as a superpower but that's
different thing from being invincible.

 The *last* thing this planet needs is an invincible

 IMO the only good thing to come out of the Iraq invasion
 and the recent invasion of Lebanon is that they have 
 demonstrated that both the United States and Israel,
 *far* from being invincible with their stockpiles of
 the latest and greatest weapons on the planet,
 are 
 basically helpless when dealing with a people who 
 believe that they are fighting for the preservation 
 of their own country and their way of life. All that 
 both countries have done is demonstrated their own 
 *weakness*.
 
 It's a lesson the French finally learned in Algeria
 (after believing in their own invincibility for decades)
 and tried to convey to the US when it invaded Iraq. But
 it's a lesson that neither the United States or Israel
 seem to get.
 
 If the TM organization is going to claim that they're 
 butt-bouncing for world peace, for chrissakes don't call

 this stock market rise is surges in the Defense industry.
 To quote from a post I made in 2002:
 
 Before scrolling down, think for a moment and come up with a
 figure you think represents the U.S. percentage of worldwide
 arms sales.
 
 From the U.S. Department of State website
 (http://www.state.gov/t/vc/rls/rpt/wmeat/99_00/), Arms Sales
 by Country, 1999 (latest available [at that time, and possibly
 now]). The figure to the left is the ranking, figure to the 
 right is the number of millions of dollars of sales, countries 
 that sell 0 (less than a million) are left off.
 
 Answer to the math question -- total up the arms sales by ALL
 other countries on this list during 1999 and you get a combined
 total of 18,680 million, or only 56.6% of the arms sold by the U.S.
 during that same period. The United States sells 43.4% of the
 weapons sold on the planet.

 Read that paragraph.  Below it is a link to a Real

 Who exactly is N'kisi?
 
 I'm suggesting the scrolling maneuver because N'kisi
 is identified in the first few lines at the top of the
 screen, and I thought it might be fun to listen to the
 clip without knowing who N'kisi is.
 
 When you've heard the clip, scroll up to the top to
 find out.
 
 Or don't bother with the scrolling; it's still amazing
 when you know beforehand who is talking.
 
 But please don't give the game away here until other
 folks have had a chance to try it!

 I certainly hope so. Robert is advocating nuclear war.


oh, i see, we, in the West, just don't *understand* Islam or Iran 
well, we need to analyze more their mad destructive behavior.
We need to give them nuke power and just hope that they will change.

so, when Islamofascists seek the total destruction of Western

A wake up call.

We can connect the dots and see what terror is about, what extreme 
Islam is about, or we can keep on closing our eyes and hope that it 
will disappear by itself and stay delusional.

I'm interested to hear your feedback on it.

 Maybe what we can derive

no, religion is just an excuse, it's not the real issue, the fact is 
that there are Muslims who are truly peaceful.
However twisting it by radical Muslims and brain wash their kids is 
the real issue, hijacking the kid's mind, hijacking the true essence

Peace will prevail eventually, the question is how much suffering

--- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, TurquoiseB [EMAIL PROTECTED] 
wrote:

 I've been thinking lately about the time we all
 waste here, especially me. And about how I can
 turn that around. So what I came up with is a
 technique I haven't been practicing enough lately
 call Tantric inversions. That's where you take a
 stimulus that normally draws you back into an old,
 tired samskaric pattern, and instead of going
 there, you use the stimulus as a *reminder* to do
 the opposite of that samskaric pattern.
 
 In my case, one of my obvious samskaric patterns
 is that I allow Judy to suck me into her endless
 arguments and wind up writing too much here, instead
 of writing the film reviews and book chapters I'm 
 supposed to be working on this summer. So my new
 plan is to let Judy's seemingly endless reservoir
 of bile *inspire* me instead of getting under my
 skin. Every time she slams me here on FFL, what
 I'm going to try to do is *instead* of doing what 
 she wants me to do (that is, waste my time and my 
 life the way she's wasted hers), 

but before you do this TI, you can't resist but to bash
her one last time, is that it?!  lol

kind of, tomorrow I'll go on diet but now i have to have
that steak..

anyway good luck :)

I'll just sit down 
 and write another film review, or a section of the 
 book. 
 
 Somehow I think I have a long summer's writing 
 ahead of me. :-) It'll be an interesting experiment.
 Judy will keep slamming me, because that is just
 what she does, and if I keep to this plan, the more
 she slams me, the more salable writing I'll produce. 
 And that will get under her skin more than anything 
 I could possibly say in response. Life is good.
 
 As Bhairitu can tell you, one of the reasons we 
 like the Tantric path is that it's fun.

imo, Iran care [EMAIL PROTECTED] about the Palestinians or Hizbalah, all in 
it's 
just a way to hurt the USA and to show the world that Iran
is a bigger super power (or equel to) then US. in that manner
Iran is using the region who is already a in pain.

 It is inevitable, that we and the Israeli's will have to take 
serious 
 action to destroy this Facist regime in Iran, and any other Facist 
 regime, bent on destroying us and out interests.
 So, no matter what type of new rocket they have;
 We've had that since the 50's.
 And could turn their country to dust, in one hot New York Second...

 JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Israel will not demand the immediate 
disarming of 
 Hizbollah as part of a deal to end the current fighting in 
Lebanon, a 
 senior Israeli foreign ministry official said on Saturday.
 
 Israel's stance could make it easier to reach an agreement with 
major

 force in south Lebanon.

Israel effort alone, on the political arena, to disarm Hizbalah
is not going to do it, a broader pressure is lacking at this phase.
IMO, we are setting ourselves to more problems in the future as Iran
will push the bottoms again and will escalate the situation when 
ever 
Iran has interest to do so. I hope to be wrong.

Currently it looks like the France and Lebanon will be part of 
peacekeeping , hopefully they will do a better job than UN,
that is if UN forces ever did something beside watching Hizbalah
preparing for war.
