Continuing Our Campaign to Create Harmony and Coherence for the Nation
Specially selected weekly Maharishi videos for Sidhas and Governors: Starts 
Sat. Dec. 5 just before Group Program

Dear US Sidhas and Governors,

I would like to express my deep appreciation to everyone who has been joining 
our nationwide group practice of the TM® and TM‑Sidhi® programs.

We have received wonderful feedback from many of you.

“I didn’t anticipate just how powerful it would be to do my TM and TM-Sidhi 
practice with the large group across the country. I found that my experiences 
were richer and deeper, and that wonderful, blissful feeling stayed with me 
long after my program was over. I decided to make group practice a priority, 
and it has paid off in so many ways.” —M.K.
As our nation continues to face uniquely challenging health, economic, and 
political changes, we would like to urge everyone to continue this 
initiative—with even greater force.

New Knowledge Series: 4:00 to 4:40 pm Central Time, just before Group Program
To complement this national Super-Radiance initiative, we will offer a powerful 
and uplifting Zoom knowledge series, with special videos for Sidhas and 
Governors, every Saturday from 4:00–4:40 pm, CT (5:00–5:40, ET; 3:00–3:40, MT; 
2:00–2:40, PT) through the end of December. (View the national times below. 
)

This week’s video
To kick off the Knowledge Series, we’ll enjoy the first 40 minutes of this 
beautiful video from May 5, 1992: “Maharishi Reviews the World Situation and 
the Need to Maintain Self-Referral Consciousness.”

In this talk, Maharishi reminds us of the importance of remaining connected to 
that unshakable field of Para—the field of pure consciousness—which is 
untouched by the surface turmoil of life.

How do I connect?
Connect via Zoom video:https://us02web.zoom.us/j/89691355158 

We hope you can take advantage of this opportunity to continue creating 
much‑needed unity and coherence for our whole nation.

With best wishes,

Dr. John Hagelin
President, Maharishi International University (MIU)
National Director, Maharishi Foundation USA

[FairfieldLife] Fwd: Message from Adrian Daller who just tested positive for COVID

2020-11-12 Thread Dick Mays dickm...@lisco.com [FairfieldLife]
Forwarded from a dear friend:

This was posted by Adrian Daller of Fairfield IA. Read and take heed:

Nate and I tested positive for COVID even though we've been extremely cautious 
- masks outdoors, rarely going in buildings, homeschooling, tiny bubble of 
people we were seeing who were equally cautious. We've taken a financial hit 
because of these choices but are fortunate enough to have a roof over our heads 
and food on the table. We're asymptomatic so far, and our kids tested negative, 
but we could have given it to family members who we were cautiously seeing 
after months apart. They all tested negative, but we spent several days with 
the very real possibility that we could have given it to elderly family 
members. And the only reason we got tested is because someone else in our 
bubble tested positive. Otherwise we never would have known. We thought of 
ourselves as the safe people who were following all the rules..

People who know me well, know why we made the choice to be this cautious but 
it's nobody's business, really. I wish I didn't have to prove why we're being 
cautious -- that knowing folks in your community have their reasons for trying 
to stay healthy could be enough of a reason to be cautious yourself. I wish 
that my community members were willing to take the precautions to keep others 
safe instead of refusing because of political stance or because you personally 
don't believe this is the right way deal with a pandemic, or you have your own 
theory about it that differs from what doctors are recommending. That's all 
your prerogative, but I still believe it's possible to take the precautions as 
best you can out of compassion for those around you. I know there are those who 
say, "well, we're all gonna get it anyway," and choose to continue as normal. 
But when you make that choice, you're making it for your entire community, 
including people with health conditions and others more at-risk than you may be 
(and there have been cases of reinfection in our own county).

There is a very real possibility that you could be carrying the virus without 
knowing and pass it to someone - or someone's relative - who dies from it.

I know there are people who have to go to work or your business will close. Or 
you'll lose your job and won't have a way to sustain yourself or your family. 
Or your kids have to go to school. There are many who need help with small 
children - can you imagine staying by yourself indoors with a toddler for 
months on end? Plenty of very legit and unavoidable reasons to be around 
others. But those who DO have a choice have the opportunity to play it even 
safer for the benefit of those who don't.

I mainly wanted to post this because we're going into several months of more 
indoor time, lowered immunity, and family gatherings around the holidays. If 
you have the choice, please think about prioritizing the safety of those around 
you over the quality of your lifestyle over the coming months. Consider 
cancelling gatherings. Again, I am well aware that many of you do not have the 
option to completely quarantine yourself. I'm writing this for those of you who 
do have that choice. 

[FairfieldLife] Fwd: It's Time to Vote in Jefferson County – Here's a Guide to Whom and What Is on the Ballot

2020-10-06 Thread Dick Mays dickm...@lisco.com [FairfieldLife]
Forwarded from: DAVID SANDS 

Please forward this email to others in Jefferson County.
 
Dear Jefferson County Voter,
 
Here’s my email with the information that could be useful in completing your 
general election ballot.
 
Absentee ballots will be mailed andearly voting starts tomorrow, Monday, 
October 5th. Yippee, it’s almost over!
 
If you have submitted an absentee ballot request, you’ll receive your ballot 
this week. If you have not submitted an absentee ballot request, you still can, 
but I recommend that you just go to the Courthouse and cast your ballot. That 
way, you’ll know that your ballot is in the Auditor’s hands.
 
If you receive an absentee ballot, please complete it and return it right away, 
either by mail or deliver it yourself, to the Auditor at the Courthouse.
 
You can see a sample ballot here 
: 
http://www.jeffersoncountyiowa.com/elections.htm. Scroll down to find the 
ballot for your voting precinct.
 
Candidate Forums: Sponsored by the Chamber of Commerce, this Tuesday, Oct. 6th 
for Jefferson County Sheriff and County Supervisors, andWednesday, Oct. 7th for 
State Legislators. The forums start at 6pm and are streamed online.. Info here 
: 
https://www..facebook.com/events/324577118816336/?event_time_id=324577125483002.
 
JUDGES and CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION: On the back of the ballot are places to 
vote on retention of judges and a chance to indicate whether you want a 
Constitutional Convention. This vote is mandated by law. Please vote to retain 
the judges and vote “No” on the Constitutional Convention question.
Rationale: We have good judges and I recommend not giving the Republican 
Governor an opportunity to appoint partisan judges. The same goes for a 
Constitutional Convention. We don’t need to amend Iowa’s Constitution and a 
convention would give Republicans an opportunity to inscribe their extreme 
agenda in the Constitution.
 
PRESIDENT, SENATOR, CONGRESSPERSON: For their regressive and often inhumane 
policies on health, immigration, the social safety net, white nationalism, 
racism, xenophobia, taxation, politization of judicial appointments, 
environmental issues and denying the social and economic consequences of global 
warming, we have to vote out the Republicans. Bernie made the case for voting 
for Democrats in a marvelous speech 
 last week: 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NAAWxZGHJNo. Basically, he argued that we must 
repudiate Trump and his Republican enablers and sycophants by electing 
Democrats for their social, economic and environmental policies. He added that 
we have influence with Democrats, and that he and others were working with Joe 
Biden’s people and will continue to work with them after Joe is elected. I’d 
say the same for the other Democrats — Theresa Greenfield for U.S. Senate and 
Rita Hart for 2ndDistrict Representative. Theresa and Rita are qualified, solid 
players dedicated to the wellbeing and success of all Iowans. Their opponents 
are dedicated Trump supporters whose attack ads have been totally Trump-ish — 
gross distortions and outright lies. Surely, I don’t need to say more. You can 
find info on Theresa Greenfield’s platform on her website 
, https://greenfieldforiowa.com, and Facebook 
, 
https://www.facebook.com/GreenfieldForIowa. Info on Rita Hart’s platform is on 
her website , https://www.ritahart.com, and Facebook 
, 
https://www.facebook.com/RitaHart4Iowa. You can hear the candidates debate this 
Tuesday and Wednesday. An earlier Iowa Press Debate between Rita and her 
Republican opponent Marionnette Miller-Meeks can be found here 
,
 
https://www.iowapublicradio.org/ipr-news/2020-09-11/watch-candidates-rita-hart-and-iowa-sen-marianette-miller-meeks-debate.
 Miller-Meeks is currently our State Senator.
FOOTNOTE: There are actually nine candidates for President/VP. Please don’t 
waste your vote on any of the other seven, either out of conviction or as a 
protest. Only Biden has a chance to oust Trump and become the next president.
 
STATE REPRESENTATIVE: I’m going to talk only about District 82, which 
encompasses the western two-thirds of Jefferson County plus Van Buren and Davis 
Counties. If you vote in a different district, you’re going to have to do your 
own research, but I make the same argument I did about the higher offices: 
Republicans control the Iowa Legislature and Governor’s Mansion. They have been 
passing ALEC’s bills supporting an extreme right-wing agenda. Let’s vote the 
Republicans out.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Fwd: Sadhguru's motorcycle tour of spiritual America

2020-09-21 Thread Peter Rousseau rousseau...@gmail.com [FairfieldLife]
I must admit to never having heard of the 'Sadguru' per se; The idea of
this effort is interesting though. Claiming to be a 'Sadguru' is quite an
assumption. I would not know how to prove the validity of the claim.
Therefore I would not validate it by referring to him in that context. I
just do not know; but the trip and the motive for it is refreshing and cool..

Subject: Sadhguru's motorcycle tour -- happening now!

The first link contains the various videos from Sadhguru's current motorcycle 
tour. It was not very well-organized, so when I went through it, I made a list 
of what I think is the complete set without all the repetition. So, first is 
the home link, then the vids in some kind of logical order. He should be 
updating every day so look for another one at about 8-9 pm US ET. 

You're on your own from here!
Finally, I'll repeat a short note about some possible reasons why I think he's 
doing this. He mentions something similar in passing.
As you know, I am immersed in the spiritual worldview as my main reality even 
though my undergraduate/doctoral studies in 
biochemistry/psychology/neuroscience has imbued me with some healthy skepticism.

>From the ancient and universal spiritual perspective, when an enlightened sage 
>travels around the country he is purifying and enlightening the entire area. I 
>think we all agree that the US is in desperate need of that.

So the superficial view, that most of his followers have, is an inspiring, 
camera-friendly journey to trick them into thinking about spiritual things for 
a while. From the worldview of the yogi-shamans and esoteric spiritual warriors 
I know, it is something much more powerful.

Throughout history, great men and women have described exalted experiences, 
moments of extraordinary wakefulness, freedom, and bliss — as different from 
our ordinary waking experience as waking is from dreaming.
Laozi, Plato, Rumi, St. Teresa of Avila, Emerson, Emily Dickinson, Black Elk, 
Einstein — people of all times and places have described experiences that rank 
among the most inspiring in all of literature.
Today we’re able recognize these as experiences of Transcendental 
Consciousness, a fourth major state of consciousness. In this interview, Dr. 
Pearson will discuss the historical record of enlightenment among people of all 
cultures and how these same experiences are manifested today in the lives of 
those who practice the TM technique.
Dr. Craig Pearson is Vice President of Academic Affairs at Maharishi 
International University and is the author of The Supreme Awakening: 
Experiences of Enlightenment Throughout Time.

[FairfieldLife] Fwd: Filing IUB Complaints

2020-06-24 Thread Dick Mays dickm...@lisco.com [FairfieldLife]
Forwarded from: Safe Technologies -- Fairfield 

Dear Community,
This is a follow-up letter to our communication from last week, now that we 
have heard back from the Iowa Utilities Board (IUB) and the Office of the 
Consumer Advocate (OCA).

The IUB said today that they are looking into the matter, and they asked 
everyone to file comments or complaints into the case docket, as our last 
letter advised.

The IUB senior staff member who we spoke with emphasized that the Board will 
not have any way to understand the experiences of the community with the 
Alliant mailings, unless people file complaints. 

The IUB needs to see the volume of customers that have a problem with this 
mailing, so everyone should file right away if they are not happy with any 
aspect of the mailing or the fact that now it has become necessary to opt-out 
once again.

On two occasions the Consumer Advocate for Iowa, not only encouraged the 
community to complain to the IUB, but insisted that it was the only way to 
succeed.

We have included below a list of the feed-back that has come in directly to us 
about this. Feel free to use this as a guide for your own complaint. The link 
to make your complaint is below the list.

A few of the complaints we have received are:

1. The statement that we must opt-out again within 30 days or you will get a 
smart meter, can only be interpreted as a threat, since we have spent years in 
court fighting against smart meters, including the long list of undesirable 
smart meter features.

2. We thought we had settled this with the utility already. What is this all 
about?

3. The 30 day time frame is unreasonably short for any process such as this.. 
It creates fear and puts the consumers into a panic, especially since the 
consequence of not succeeding in re-opting out is receiving the very meter that 
this group of people have already said they do not want.

4. Further, the imposition of a short time frame in the light of the global 
disruption from a virus, when some people may be away from home and forcibly 
sequestered in states or countries and cannot respond, is much more than 
unreasonable.

5. There are significant problems with the Alliant website/web-form. It can 
easily be filled out but for many people it has not been possible to Send or 
Save the form data that they entered.

6. Alliant in the past has lost records of opt-out customers. Alliant has:
-- put opt-out customers onto smart meter install lists,
--given customers who have completed multiple opt-out procedures a smart meter,
--resisted and often refused to return their Analogs, even when taken by 
accident,
---the result has been that people are reticent to take on this opt-out process 
again.

7. There were apparently several different letters with different content sent. 
Some of the letters allowed retaining an analog meter, and others did not 
include the analog meter option. Some customers received multiple letters, and 
some who still have their analog meter received the wrong letter, that did not 
allow the option to keep their analog. This has been frustrating and confusing 
for many.

8. Some customers who received the wrong letter have mistakenly believed that 
they no longer have the right to keep their analog (which is not the case).

9. Unfortunately some have already filed their request for a digital meter with 
Alliant, which is not only a problem for that individual who will have the 
dirty electricity from the digital when they could have kept their analog, but 
is also a problem for that person's neighbor who will also receive the dirty 
electricity through a shared transformer.

Here is the link to file comments/complaints: 
https://iub.iowa.gov/online-services/open-docket-comment-form 
.
 Use Case Docket # SPU-2018-0007

With regard to the option of the “low pulsing smart meter”, here is the reality 
of how many pulses you and your family will receive if you choose the 
low-pulsing smart meter option (please note: we DO NOT recommend this option):


In the IUB Hearing last August, one piece of evidence that was presented by us, 
was the work of Dr. Ronald Powell, Physicist, on the number of pulses of smart 
meters, where he included the EMF/RF from neighbor's smart meters.

Rather than the advertised "once per month" or a "few pulses per month" from a 
meter on the side of your house, Dr. Powell found that a home or business is 
affected by smart meters within a 100 yard distance from your location (100 
yards in all directions).

In application of Dr. Powell's study to the downtown Fairfield area, it was 
found that many locations in the downtown area, could be experiencing 10,000's 
of pulses per week, when using these so-called "low pulsing" approaches. For 
other close neighborhoods, such as sub-divisions, similar “pulsing” numbers 
will apply.

[FairfieldLife] Fwd: a note from Robert Palma Re smart meters

2020-06-23 Thread Dick Mays dickm...@lisco.com [FairfieldLife]
Dear Friends,

Here is an eminently clear and reasonable email from Robert Palma about Alliant 
Energy’s recent mailings.

Robert is a highly accomplished electrical engineer who led large teams 
developing satellites and now lives in Fairfield, where his businesses include 
Midwest Research and RFReduce.com.

Forwarded from: Engineer 

Dear Friends,

I am responding to numerous communications from family and friends that were 
received via email and telephone, concerning the recent mailings from the 
Alliant utility with regard to the utility's demand for yet another 
"registration" of your desire to not have radiating utility meters and to keep 
your Analog meters (if you currently have one/them).

It is important to point out that Kathy Matara, Intervenor, is the authority to 
speak with on this matter, but I do not want to ignore the many direct 
communications that I have received, hence this short note.

Throughout history, organizations such as governments, those in commerce, and 
others, who seek to control and/or oppress humanity, chant the same "mantra".

"Do what we tell you and don't complain."

Quite the contrary, you are encouraged to complain via the IUB web link that 
was provided to you in the recent email broadcast from Safe Technologies 
Fairfield on Thursday evening of last week.

On two occasions that I am aware of, and at one of those occasions I was 
present, Marc Shuling, Consumer Advocate for Iowa, not only encouraged the 
community to complain to the IUB (Iowa Utilities Board), but he insisted that 
it was the only way to succeed. He told us to "beat the bushes" and get 
everyone to tell the IUB that we are unhappy with the situation. He said that 
otherwise, the IUB will assume that you are happy with the situation.

There is a long list of concerns that have been sent to me from many of you..

Just a few of them are:
-- We thought we had settled this with the utility already. We jumped through 
all of their hoops already. What is this all about?
-- The 30 day time frame is unreasonably short for any process such as this.. 
It creates fear and puts the consumers into a panic.
-- Further, the imposition of a short time frame in the light of the global 
disruption from a virus, when some people may be away from home and forcibly 
sequestered in states or countries and cannot respond, is much more than, 
unreasonable.

About the so-called "low pulsing" options:

1. Intervenor Kathy Matara presented in the IUB Hearing last year, the work of 
Dr. Ronald Powell, Physicist, on the number of pulses of smart meters, where he 
included the EMF/RF from neighbor's smart meters.

Rather than the advertised "once per month" or a "few pulses per month" from a 
meter on the side of your house, Dr. Powell found that a home or business is 
affected by smart meters within 100 yard distance from your location (100 yards 
in all directions).

In application of Dr. Powell's study to the downtown Fairfield area, it was 
found that many locations in the downtown area, could be experiencing 10,000's 
of pulses per week, when using these so-called "low pulsing" approaches.

You can read the report that is part of the Hearing testimony:
http://rfreduce.com/robertsblog/dl/Smart-meter-Pulses-In-Dense-MIXED-Neighborhoods-,OptOut_OnDemand_Rev-1.pdf
 


2. Remember that a so-called low pulsing smart utility meter has other 
characteristics that many people find objectionable. Just a few of them are:

-- the meter may emit microwave radiation with the Bluetooth or other protocol, 
to attempt to connect with similarly equipped "smart appliances". The amount of 
this radiation could be considerable.
-- the meter is collecting usage information from you and in-effect profiling 
your daily habits. Many people consider this an invasion of privacy.
-- the meter has a power switch inside of it, to completely shut down your 
power, and there is the concern that this switch has been the cause of many 
smart meter fires in the past.
-- the switch mode power supply in the smart meter creates Dirty Electricity 
that circulates on the wiring in your home/office and thereby radiates Dirty 
Electricity Electric and Magnetic fields, into your dwelling, that put voltages 
and currents into your body
-- the utility has not in any way promised/guaranteed that whatever the 
"low pulsing weekly count" is, that is being proposed now, will not be changed, 
including, increased, in the future.

A final note.

I am not aware of any way, that filing complaints now, would bring a 
disadvantage to you, in the future. Again, the Iowa Consumer Advocate has 
advised, to make your voice heard.

Again, Kathy Matara, Intervenor, is the authority to speak with on this matter, 
and will provide you complete information.

This note is just a courtesy in response to many incoming emails and phone 
calls.

Just a reminder that all of these

[FairfieldLife] Fwd: Honey bees on the Isle of Wight; Slovenia postpones 5G; More satellites are launched

2020-01-30 Thread Dick Mays dickm...@lisco.com [FairfieldLife]
Forwarded from: Arthur Firstenberg 
 
 
 

 
 THE HONEY BEE’S PLEA

The honey bee in the banner at the top of this newsletter has been speaking to 
us for over one hundred and fourteen years. Its numbers ever diminishing, its 
message ever more urgent, it waits for a sleeping world to finally listen. 
“Now!” it says. “Wake up before it’s too late, there is no more time!”

On the Isle of Wight, off the southern coast of England, Giuglielmo Marconi 
built the world’s first permanent radio station. And the bees’ first warning to 
humanity was heard. “They are often to be seen crawling up grass stems, or up 
the supports of the hive, where they remain until they fall back to the earth 
from sheer weakness, and soon afterwards die,” wrote Augustus Imms of Christ’s 
College, Cambridge in 1906. Ninety percent of the bees had already vanished 
from the entire island. Unable to find a cause, he called it, simply, Isle of 
Wight disease.. Swarms of healthy bees were imported from the mainland, but it 
was of no use: within a week the fresh bees were dying off by the thousands.

The description, more than a century later, is exactly the same. On November 
19, 2019, a 5G antenna was placed 250 meters from Angela’s house in Melbourne, 
Australia. “I photographed the new mast going onto the cell tower,” she writes, 
“and the next day, I was in the driveway talking to our carpenter, and we saw 
bees dropping on the driveway then dying. I managed to film one trying to 
collect pollen, but it was hanging upside down and could not seem to make it to 
the centre of the flower, then it rolled off the petals to the ground.”

Today, two months later, their beautiful garden, full of old world trees and 
plants, is silent and barren. “We have no insects -- none,” wrote Angela last 
week. “Our cumquat once laden all year has no new fruit coming. No olives on 
the way on our olive tree so laden last year. We dug soil yesterday -- no worms 
either -- nothing -- all gone. I walked the dog late tonight, it was dark and a 
poor magpie was down the street under a street lamp hoping for a cricket I 
think. It was silent. I took birdseed back but the bird had gone -- it must be 
hungry to be out at night.”

In the midst of plenty the bees are starving to death. In 2009, Neelima Kumar, 
at Panjab University in India, placed cell phones in some bee hives and turned 
them on for ten minutes. The concentrations of glucose, cholesterol, total 
carbohydrates, total lipids and total proteins rose precipitously in the bees’ 
blood. After just ten minutes’ exposure to a cell phone, the bees were not able 
to digest their food, or use the oxygen they were breathing. Their metabolism 
had come to a standstill.

“Wake up!” say the bees.

“Wake up!” said parents with their children who assembled last Saturday at the 
Church on the Roundabout in Newport on the Isle of Wight to protest plans to 
turn their island into a Smart Island -- to bring Isle of Wight disease back to 
the island of its birth.

Radio waves are poison to life. They penetrate skin and bones, cell walls and 
mitochondria. They prevent electrons from our food from combining with the 
oxygen we breathe. They give us diabetes, and heart disease, and cancer. They 
disorient migratory birds, and they kill outright tiny forms of life that 
pollinate flowers and have high rates of metabolism.

In the mid-1990s, the invisible fire that Marconi had lit became a 
conflagration. For the first time in human history, radio waves began to be 
broadcast not only from tall towers scattered widely across the landscape, but 
from the hands of men, women and children everywhere. And in 2020 this has 
brought us to the brink of extinction -- not just of bees, and not just of 
humanity, but of all life on Earth.

I asked, in a previous newsletter, “which do we want more: our phones or our 
planet?” There is only one sane answer. I ask all of you who are reading this 
newsletter to join with me in putting this world back on a path to survival by 
throwing away your cell phones, now, today. Not next year, and not tomorrow. 
Today. There is no other option. Tomorrow we can deal, if we dare, with climate 
change. But if we are to have time to answer that urgent call, we must first 
deal with this emergency. We must extinguish this fire.

I vote for life. Do you?

SLOVENIA VOTES FOR LIFE, AT LEAST FOR NOW

Last Friday, while people in 250 cities were preparing for the first Global Day 
of Protest against 5G, Slovenia became the first country in the world to refuse 
5G, at least temporarily, because of objections from scientists and the public. 
The Ministry of Public Administration had called a four-hour Public

Dear Friends,

Kelly Kirkpatrick, a warm and generous member of our community and IAA assembly 
creating a powerful influence of peace in the world, has been diagnosed with a 
large cancerous tumor in his abdomen and must travel to and stay at the Mayo 
Clinic to receive repeated chemotherapy and rehabilitation treatments. He is in 
great need of donations to cover medical expenses, food & housing, and 
transportation as well as Ayurvedic treatments to heal from the chemo. We 
estimate the need to be approximately $25,000 at this time. However, every 
dollar adds up, and if we all give something, whatever you feel guided to give, 
perhaps we can help save Kelly’s life. Thank you for your love, your compassion 
and your generosity. Donations are tax deductible. Please Forward this email. 
Thank you.

https://givetaxfree.org/campaigns/kelly-kirkpatrick/ 
 


Please Support for our dedicated Sidha, Kelly Kirkpatrick who is seriously ill

Kelly has been both deeply devoted to attending the Super Radiance program in 
the Dome and has consistently worked hard to inspire others to attend. He was 
rounding on the Invincible America Assembly from day one.  Kelly has been 
helping our community for years and now is the time for our community to help 
him.
Kelly has serious intestinal cancer. He needs alternative medical care, better 
housing, paid professional care givers, a Maharishi Yagya for heath, and funds 
to support him as he can no longer work. 
$25,000 is required.
Please open your heart and your pocket to Kelly today. Here's how to make a tax 
deductible donation:

[FairfieldLife] Fwd: Prescription for exercise

2020-01-01 Thread Dick Mays dickm...@lisco.com [FairfieldLife]
Forwarded from: Shin Ohtake 



Doctors say “just do it.”

Go do a workout. Exercise regularly. Do it often. 

But “just do it” doesn’t tell you what to do.

So, researchers have started to work toward “prescriptions for exercise.” The 
goal? Give you a better idea of the exact type of exercise you should be doing 
to achieve specific health benefits. They aren’t quite there yet, but…

Here’s just some of what they’ve found: 

Middle-age people with high levels of cardio fitness appear to have an 8 times 
lower risk of dementia over the next 44 years (and that’s compared to those 
with “moderate fitness” 
)…Link:
 https://n.neurology.org/content/90/15/e1298
High intensity exercise increases brain activity in the areas of our brains 
impacted by Parkinson’s disease 

 Link: https://www.medscimonit.com/abstract/index/idArt/906179 (and other 
studies show increased glucose uptake in regions impacted by Alzheimer’s 
)…Link:
 https://academic.oup.com/jcem/article/103/1/221/4565492
Combined training improves mitochondrial function

 help slow down oxidative damage (a core cause of aging)…Link:

response to cancer

the same time, muscular exertion can produce new brain cells… 
Link:
 https://www.nature.com/articles/s41574-019-0174-x
In one study, exercise was just as effective as drugs for people at risk of 
heart disease and diabetes (here’s the study 
)…Link:
 https://www.bmj.com/content/347/bmj.f5577
And in another, more than 50% of 64 adults in this study 

 were able to stop taking their blood sugar medication after 1 year of 
following a workout program…Link: https://www.bmj.com/content/347/bmj.f5577
There are countless studies just like these….
They all agree that exercise is beneficial, but doctors also recognize: 

Not all exercise is created equal. That’s why they’re so set on studying the 
differences. 

Now, of course doing something is better than doing nothing. 

But…

When it comes to getting the most out of each workout, here are some mistakes 
you should avoid…

>>> The 6 WORST Exercise Mistakes to Avoid

If you’re going to start exercising again, make sure you aren’t making these 
mistakes. 

Stay Lean,

Dear Sidha Community Member,

About 200 teachers of TM who taught in the 1960s and 1970s are gathering this 
weekend for a TM Movement Originals Reunion being held on our MUM campus..  
Over 60 participants from outside Fairfield are looking forward to flying in 
the domes with our community.

Let’s give them a warm welcome and join them in the Domes on Saturday morning 
and evening, September 21 and Sunday morning, September 22. It should be fun to 
see our old friends and have a chance to do program together.

This is very timely because this weekend culminates with the Global Group 
Meditation that will be taking place around the globe this Sunday, as there 
will be many thousands creating waves of bliss and coherence around the world 
at the same time.

If you are a teacher of TM from the 1960s and 1970s and you would like to 
participate and have yet to sign-up for the weekend festivities, please go to 
our website and officially register (originals.mum.edu

Dear Friends,

First, let me say how much I enjoyed being with you during these past 18 days!  
Thank you for your wonderful support, thoughtfulness, and kindness throughout 
my course.

I am writing to ask for your help tonight!!!

Tonight, at 8:00 o'clock in Dalby Hall, we are presenting an honorary 
doctorate, the Doctor of World Peace Honoris Causa, to a renowned scientist, 
mega-philanthropist, meditator and Vedic scholar, Dr. Navin Doshi.  He has 
funded Endowed Chairs at a half a dozen Universities world-wide.  And we 
certainly want / need his support!

I very, very much want you all to come!

Mr. Doshi is an extraordinary man. Born in India, he moved to the U.S. and 
became an aerospace engineer, receiving many awards from NASA for his work. 
Then he became very successful in business. And for years now he has used his 
resources to promote “the building of bridges wherever there are differences,” 
“the perfection of mind and spirit, irrespective of religion, ethnicity or 
culture,” and “the expansion of human consciousness.” He is the author of a new 
book entitled Transcendence: Saving Us From Ourselves.

I have known Mr. Doshi for many years and have been looking forward to the 
opportunity to honor him in this way. He is a dear man, a dear friend, and 
already a great supporter of MUM.

Let’s be sure Mr. Doshi and his wife Pratima receive a royal MUM welcome.

Please all come!  And bring a friend, spouse, or a buddy from IAA.

It will be a lovely, celebratory evening!

With my deep personal thanks,

Raja John

[FairfieldLife] Fwd: Know anyone with a smart meter? Valuable testing is available

2019-05-25 Thread Dick Mays dickm...@lisco.com [FairfieldLife]

Know anyone with a smart meter?  Valuable testing is available
Smart meters are needed soon for testing

In the ongoing effort to determine if smart meters are safe, Jay Marcus, 
Attorney is seeking to contact Alliant customers who are currently using a 
smart meter.  We are specifically looking for smart meter customers who live in 
each of the Fairfield communities, including Utopia Park and Maharishi Vedic 
City. However, any Alliant customer in Iowa would be helpful.

How you can be of help

We are asking you to contact your friends, neighbors or work associates who 
have smart meters to ask if they would be willing to allow for the testing of 
their meters to determine the safety of their units.  If they choose to 
participate, we will ask them to sign a simple consent form.  The testing, 
depending on the orders of the Iowa Utilities Board, will be sometime in the 
next few months, and will not cost them anything.  No one will enter their 
home, they do not have to be at home or do anything to allow for the testing.  
The testing will take but a few minutes so it is possible that they may not 
know that the test was actually done, and the results of each individual test 
will not be identified as coming from their meter or be made public in any way.

The goal of this test is not to convince anyone to opt out

The purpose of the test is NOT to convince the customer that they should opt 
out, but the customer can ask for the results of the test if they want.  By 
participating in this test they are not acting in support of Fairfield Safe 
Meters or Alliant, neither will they become involved in the hearings or 
activities of the Iowa Utility Board.

Your help is needed right away

If you know of anyone who might accept the testing, please send this email to 
them.  We'd appreciate as many responses to this email as soon as possible. 
Thank you for your support!

Those ready to participate in the test will get useful information about their 
own meter and also  help determine how the community can best deal with the 
situation.

To Consent: Those who consent can either sign, scan and email me the consent 
form, or simply email me with their name and address and say that they 
authorize me to sign the consent for them. To participate they must be the 
owner of the residence or a renter who pays the utility bill.
Thanks.

[FairfieldLife] Fwd: SMART METERS PLANNED INSTALLATION IN FAIRFIELD-- MONDAY, APRIL 1ST

2019-03-28 Thread Dick Mays dickm...@lisco.com [FairfieldLife]
Forwarded from:  Janet Evertsen 

Make sure you have your postcard from Alliant Confirming your Opt-Out 

Friends, please forgive duplications but this is our last 3 days to ensure your 
Analog Meter stays put: Smart and Digital Meters are planned to be installed - 
this Monday, April 1st.

If you received your postcard from Alliant confirming your opt-out hang on to 
it! If you do NOT have a postcard from Alliant confirming your opt-out, you may 
not be on official record despite the many things you did properly.

(TO BE CONSIDERED OPTED OUT) Call them 1-800 ALLIANT and re-iterate (or tell 
them for first time) you DO NOT want a Smart OR Digital meter but are keeping 
your analog, get the date, time and name of agent and record it.

Talk to your neighbors as you need the homes around you to be free of 
Smart/Digital Meters also to minimize your exposure to the pulsing EMF’s.. A 
sample neighborhood next to MUM was tested and it was alarming how many never 
got around to 'opting
out' but wanted to.

Signs will be available at Everybody's and Frontline Printing and Golden Dome 
Market starting today to put on your meter.

Suggestion: First take a time/date picture (or at least a pic) of your current 
meters and then one with the sign taped on for proof.

Don't forget to opt-out of the gas meter also.

If you notice major installation going on near you, you might take a snapshot 
or short video so collectively we can see how 'prepared' Alliant is to roll-out 
their meters. You can send those to iowasafemet...@gmail.com as a collections 
place or whomever you choose.

I heard that they have hired outside agencies to do this installation, 
hopefully confusion will be minimal.

Let's all hold our attention on the Whole Town Opt Out anyway as there's always 
room for miracles.

Have you wondered why the Clinton Foundation folded so suddenly after Hillary

some insight.From their 2014 990 Tax Form; they list 486 employees (line 5). 
It took 486 people who are paid $34.8 million and $91.3 million in fees and 
expenses, to give away $5.1 MILLION!
The real heart of the Clintons can be seen here. Staggering but not surprising. 
These figures are from an official copy of the Bill, Hillary and Chelsea 
Clinton Foundation for the tax year 2014. The copy of the tax return is from 
the National Center for Charitable Statistics web sitehttp:// nccs.urban.org/ 
You can obtain the latest tax return on any charitable organization there.
The Clinton FoundationNumber of Employees (line 5) 486 
Total revenue (line 12): $177,804,612.00 
Total grants to charity (line 13) $5,160,385.00 (this is less than 3%) 
Total expenses of $91,281,145.00

Yeah, the solar thing is great. Too bad Trump supports coal mining rather than 
alternative, sustainable energy.

The Brahmananda Saraswati Yagya Foundation which coordinates donations to the 
Maharishi Pandits, the Yagya program, and pandit training schools, unveils in 
this 12-page yearly report a rendering and photos of the new Kathmandu, Nepal, 
and India pandit campuses currently being built, along with lots of group 
photos of young pandits and students:

To navigate the flip-book, click the cover to go to the flip-book, then use 
left / right arrows in the bar at the bottom of the page to turn pages, or 
click in the left or right margins (white areas), particularly the corners..

That delightful glimpse into what is happening in India is amply filled in by 
Raja Harris' interview on this Maharishi Global Family Chat in September, 2018. 
Did you know there are several types of yagyas for the world going on every 
day?  Hear about all the amazing expansion going on:

[FairfieldLife] Fwd: Maharishi Videos for Public Offered at MUM Library Website

2018-12-13 Thread Dick Mays dickm...@lisco.com [FairfieldLife]
Forwarded from: The Review mailto:therev...@mum.edu>>
Subject: The Review, Vol. 34, #7, December 12, 2018, Maharishi U.

The Review, Vol. 34, #7, December 12, 2018
Copyright 2018, Maharishi University of Management


New Library Website Offers Maharishi Videos for Public

Many Maharishi videos are now available to the public via the new MUM library 
website – one of several resources now being offered for the first time.

The Maharishi Video Library page is available at mum.edu/videolibrary 
.

It has a number of collections by various speakers, including a collection 
called One Period a Day because Maharishi felt that every classroom at every 
level of education should include a short knowledge video each day. It contains 
450 Maharishi videos recorded during the period 2002–2007 that were originally 
shown on the Maharishi Channel.

One Period a Day includes 120 videos available to the public for viewing online 
directly from the website. An additional 330 videos in this collection are 
available for viewing by anyone on request by going to the tape library booth 
in the library, asking to see the video, and then watching it in the public 
viewing room.

One Period a Day includes a listing of categories. Clicking on a category 
brings up a page with two lists of videos: a list at left that’s viewable to 
anyone, and a list in the center that requires a student or faculty password, 
or that can be viewed in the public viewing room.

Main points accompany each video in the collection.

In addition, the publicly available collection of 120 videos is searchable by 
keyword. These videos have been transcribed, and keyword search results include 
an excerpt to show how the word is being used in context in the video.

The right column on the Maharishi Video Library page includes an additional 
collection of videos that talk about each of the areas of knowledge introduced 
by Maharishi.

The main page of the new library website can be found at library.mum.edu 
.
 The purpose of the new website is to educate students and the community, said 
Library Director Rouzanna Vardanyan.

In addition to providing access to thousands of academic journals and to vast 
databases of news and information, as well as the MUM library catalog, the 
library website includes a Special Collections link that gives access to 
resources such as the International Journal of Mathematics and Consciousness 
and the Journal of Modern Science and Vedic Science.

Other resources include a Search Engines link, which is a curated page of 
useful search engines such as Google Scholar and Google books. These search 
engines enable users to find materials that are often not available through a 
regular Google search.

Additional resources are continuing to be added. The Special Collections link 
will eventually include access to a digital archive of historical materials 
such as photos, brochures, and posters.

Ms. Vardanyan said that the new website is especially convenient for faculty.

“Faculty will no longer need to phone the tape library to schedule a video to 
show their students in class. They can simply use their password and access the 
video via the new website.”

Also new is BookMyne, a mobile app available on Google Play that can be used to 
access the MUM catalog. Patrons can also use it to see which items they have 
checked out, can renew items they’ve checked out, and can place holds on items 
checked out to another user.




[FairfieldLife] Fwd: Urgent: Jeffrey Smith’s new film, SECRET INGREDIENTS, at Orpheum theatre tonight

2018-11-05 Thread Dick Mays dickm...@lisco.com [FairfieldLife]
Forwarded from: "Jonathan Schwamm" 

  
Dear Friends
 
This is a very important message.
 
Last night Anne Marie and I attended Jeffrey Smith’s new film, SECRET 
INGREDIENTS, at Orpheum theatre. Unfortunately it was poorly attended.
 
We appeal to everyone to make an effort to go see the film tonight, Monday, 
November 5th, at 7:30 at the same location. See the Weekly Reader most recent 
issue for more details.
 
The film is brilliantly put together with a powerful message about GMO’s and 
their dangers.  Even if you think you know everything about GMO’s and the
harm they can bring, we urge you to go and see the film, if only to give 
support to Jeffrey and his ongoing activities. We are sure you will learn 
something new.
 
What Jeffrey has done through all his efforts is truly mind boggling.  His 
unrelenting dedication to creating a safe food supply for all of us is 
unprecedented.
 
It is clear that we are not going to be able to approach the farmers directly, 
but need to awaken the People, the Marketplace, with this knowledge, in order to
create more and more demand for Organic food.  Jeffrey will go deeply into this 
issue during the event.  It’s all very fascinating.
 
You will NOT regret spending this evening attending the film.  It was highly 
illuminating, and inspired us to rededicate ourselves to spreading the word to 
all our friends and loved ones everywhere.
 
Jeffrey traveled from California (where he now lives) to show his film to us 
before it’s official release on November 14th.
 
Thank you for responding to this most important need of the time.  Your 
powerful attention will go a long way to help support Jeffrey in his 
activities, which have already produced miraculous results worldwide.
 
Yours in Perfect Health,
Jonathan and Anne Marie Schwamm

[FairfieldLife] Fwd: Re-elect Rep. Phil Miller

2018-10-17 Thread Dick Mays dickm...@lisco.com [FairfieldLife]
Forwarded from a friend:

A very important correction to a previously misleading e-mail sent out by his 
opponent: 

Dear Progressive Voter,

The Republican candidate for State Representative for District 41 has been 
spreading misinformation concerning the position of the incumbent Phil Miller 
on the smart meter installation. We want to clarify the matter.

Phil has been actively engaged since January, 2018 in working with Alliant 
Energy and the IUB (Iowa Utilities Board) to create a no-fee opt-out solution 
to the installation of smart meters. Here’s a brief summary.
Phil became aware of the smart meter installation issue late last December. 
Phil contacted Alliant Energy (AE) in January ’18 — he spoke with an AE rep at 
the Statehouse where he expressed Fairfielders’ concerns. Phil asked that AE at 
slow down the installation so we could have a proper dialogue and work towards 
a reasonable agreement. 
AE subsequently agreed to make Fairfield the last city to receive smart meters. 
AE talked about putting meters at a distance from a house and allowing an 
opt-out at customers’ expense. 
Phil is appealing to AE and the IUB to have a no-fee opt-out.
If AE won’t back down and the IUB allows the opt-out fee, then Phil will submit 
a bill to eliminate the fee.
No decisions on the fee and other terms for an opt-out will be made by the IUB 
until after a final hearing or comment opportunity in November. 

This election is too important to be decided by anyone’s position on a single 
issue. Phil is a champion of the things that matter to us, as summarized in the 
lengthy summary of all the candidates we recommend that we sent out last week.

Phil Miller for State House District 82: Native Iowan from farm family, local 
veterinarian for more than 40 years, former President of Fairfield Community 
Schools, active member of First United Methodist Church, former member of 
Jefferson County Board of Health, and, with his wife Connie, parent to four 
grown children and grandparent to 12  Website 


Qualifications
Won the Iowa House seat vacated by Curt Hanson in 2017
Was deeply involved in public education as President of Fairfield Community 
Schools
Small business owner (Veterinary Clinic)
Healthcare background — served on Board of Health; works as a veterinarian
Well known and liked by livestock farmers and pet owners

Quality, Affordable Healthcare: a basic need of all Iowans
Advocates that Medicaid be run by the State, not private by out-of-state 
insurance companies
Wants all Iowans to receive the healthcare that they need
Sees Medicare-for-All as a possible approach to reducing costs and making 
healthcare accessible to all

Well-Funded, High Quality Public Schools: a cornerstone of rural community 
viability
Reverse the cuts in State support of public schools
Meet educational needs of high and low achievers, and provide technical

Our Comment: Phil listens, learns and works hard to understand issues. Though

majority ignores the Democrats, passing laws dictated by ALEC that do not serve 
the wellbeing of Iowans generally.

The Trump administration’s often overlooked list of achievements has surpassed 
those of former President Reagan at this time and more than doubled since the 
last tally of accomplishments after his first year in office, giving President 
Trump a solid platform to run for reelection on.

As Trump nears the two-year mark of his historic election and conducts 
political rallies around the country during which he talks up his wins in hopes 
it will energize Republican voters, the administration has counted up 289 
accomplishments in 18 categories, capped by the confirmation of Brett Kavanaugh 
to the Supreme Court.

They include 173 major wins like adding more than 4 million jobs and another 
116 smaller victories, some with outsized importance such as the 83 percent 
one-year increase in arrests of MS-13 gang members.

 “Trump’s successes in reducing the cost of taxes and regulations, rebuilding 
our military, avoiding wars of choice and changing the courts rival those of 
all previous Republican presidents,” said Grover Norquist, president of 
Americans for Tax Reform.

“Trump has an advantage over Ronald Reagan: he has a Reagan Republican House 
and Senate while Reagan had a [Democratic Speaker] Tip O’Neill House and a 
pre-Reagan Republican Senate. Reagan and [former GOP Speaker] Newt Gingrich 
were the icebreakers that allowed Trump’s victories to grow in number and 
significance,” he added.
Unlike the Year One list which included many proposals and orders still to be 
acted on, the new collection includes dozens of actions already in place, 
signed legislation and enforced executive orders.

For example, while the Year One list bragged about the administration’s efforts 
to rewrite the much-maligned NAFTA trade deal with Canada and Mexico, the Year 
Two list said, “Negotiated a historic U.S.-Mexico-Canada Trade Agreement to 
replace NAFTA.”

THE LIST
Economic Growth   
   - 4.2 percent growth in the second quarter of 2018.
   - For the first time in more than a decade, growth is projected to exceed 3 
percent over the calendar year.

[FairfieldLife] Fwd: Wed 11:30 am - Supervisor Meeting to Discuss Appeal of Huber CAFO [1 Attachment]

Supervisors Schedule Meeting to Discuss Appeal of Huber CAFO

Meeting is 11:30 am Wednesday, September 19 
Jefferson County Courthouse Supervisors' Office

Please join us to urge the Jefferson County Supervisors to appeal the 7497-head 
Huber CAFO permit.

The Jefferson County Supervisors office was packed this morning when at least 
two dozen people came out to address the agenda item, “Discuss and consider 
waiving right to protest” during the supervisors weekly board meeting.

This refers to a 14 day period that the supervisors have to appeal the 
preliminary construction permit the Iowa DNR granted the Daniels Site, Bill 
Huber’s 7497-head confinement west of the city of Pleasant Plain. Supervisor 
Lee Dimmitt submitted the agenda item, telling JFAN’s President and Executive 
Director Diane Rosenberg last week it was in order to expedite the construction 
process for Huber. The preliminary permit was granted on September 10.

At first, Supervisor Dee Sandquist said the Jefferson County Attorney’s 
Office’s advised her to remove the agenda point since there wasn’t enough 
descriptive information to properly inform the public. 

That didn’t sit too well with those who were present who learned about the 
agenda item from JFAN. Sandquist said the supervisors couldn’t take action on 
items not on the agenda, but Rosenberg asked if they could hear comments during 
the public comment period and then schedule a special meeting to discuss and 
vote on an appeal.

More than a dozen people spoke in favor of an appeal. At the end of the 
comments and some discussion of what’s legally possible, the supervisors did 
agree to hold a special hearing THIS Wednesday, September 19 at 11:30 am at the 
Jefferson County Supervisors Office.

An appeal of the DNR’s decision to grant a permit is made to the Environmental 
Protection Commission, a nine-member board that has oversight of the DNR. Only 
a board of supervisors can request an appeal although they can delegate others 
to represent them at an EPC meeting.

It’s very important that Jefferson County residents once again attend this 
meeting. An appeal based on general environmental grounds is something that the 
supervisors CAN do to address the Huber CAFO at this juncture. 

A strong showing also sends a very direct message to Bill Huber and Agri-Way 
Partners that Jefferson County residents don’t want him to build his CAFOs in 
Jefferson County. 

We warmly thank everyone who came out to this morning’s meeting. Your 
involvement got us to this next step. 

Please join us THIS Wednesday at 11:30 pm to urge the Jefferson County 
Supervisors to appeal the DNR’s decision to grant Bill Huber a construction 
permit for the Daniels Site – and please bring a friend. Let us know if you 
will be attending, too!

Thank you for all you do,
JFAN Board of Directors

   TRUMP is destroying the local AZ economies. Illegal immigrants are 
boycotting Arizona by the thousands. They are showing their outrage with Donald 
Trump's pardon of sheriff Joe Arpaio and his rescinding of Obama's 
unconstitutional executive order known as DACA.

In the small town of Guadalupe, AZ, south of Phoenix, Manuel Renaldo is one of 
those who are vowing to punish Arizona by leaving. As he loaded his stolen car 
with his taxpayer-furnished belongings and family of ten, Renaldo told this 
reporter through an interpreter: "It's a matter of principle; I refuse to be 
supported by a state that treats me like a criminal!"

The effects of the exodus are already being felt by some Arizona retailers, who 
are reporting dwindling thefts & sales of beer, tequila, spray paint, and 
ammunition. Also hit hard are the state hospitals, which have reported a 
dramatic decline in births and emergency room visits of non-revenue patients!

State welfare agencies are preparing to lay off staffs that distribute food 
stamps and unemployment benefits. Tattoo parlors are in an absolute state of 
panic!

Renaldo told a reporter, through an interpreter, that he and his family are 
moving to the sanctuary state of California, with a Liberal government under 
Democrats and Governor Jerry Brown, new higher taxes and hardworking people who 
will better able to support him and his growing family with dignity!

Kinda brings a tear to your eye, doesn't it?

[FairfieldLife] Fwd: JFAN's LTE on Daniels Site in Thursday Fairfield Ledger

2018-08-17 Thread Dick Mays dickm...@lisco.com [FairfieldLife]
Dear Richard,

JFAN published the following letter to the editor on the Daniels Site, a 
7497-head hog confinement proposed for Jefferson County, in the Thursday, 
August 16, 2018 edition of the Fairfield Ledger. 

Learn more about this proposed factory farm here 
.
 If you are concerned about the Daniels Site and the introduction of corporate 
farming into Jefferson County, please take action here 
.

Please note that the date for the Jefferson County Board of Supervisors to take 
public comments on the Daniels Site has been moved up to Wednesday, August 22. 
That is a week earlier than the date announced at their Master Matrix scoring 
session.

Thank you for all you do.
JFAN Board of Directors

JFAN LTE Published in the August 16, 2018 Fairfield Ledger
 
To the Editor:
 
This month businessman Bill Huber proposed a 7497-head industrial hog 
confinement for Penn Township in Jefferson County. The CAFO, Daniels Site, will 
be 2.5 miles west of the city of Pleasant Plain and will generate 2.3 million 
gallons of manure annually, according to his DNR application.
 
This is the largest CAFO to come to Jefferson County and sits in the Lake 
Darling watershed. Although the lake went through a multi-million renovation, 
it’s still suffering from water pollution problems caused by E.coli and 
blue-green algae blooms.
 
Mr. Huber, who is not a Jefferson County resident, has ownership interest in 21 
other hog confinements in four nearby counties. In fact, we understand he is a 
partner with Agri-Way Partners, a grain company in Wayland that in 2014 
expanded into hog production with plans to build 40* CAFOs in southeast Iowa. 
 
Mr. Huber’s company can be likened to a small scale Smithfield and represents a 
different type of CAFO ownership than the local contract grower that typically 
owns hog confinements in the county.  This is not good.
 
On Monday, August 13, the Jefferson County Board of Supervisors met to score 
the Master Matrix, which was self scored at 505 points. Jefferson County 
Farmers & Neighbors, Inc. (JFAN) closely reviewed the Matrix and discovered 
four questions we felt didn’t merit the 70 points taken. We made a strong case 
to the supervisors to hold this CAFO to the highest standards intended by law 
given the ecological and community impact of this enormous confinement. Had 
they done so, the Matrix would have failed at 435 points.
 
While Supervisors Lee Dimmitt, Dee Sandquist and Dick Reed did give thoughtful 
consideration to the points JFAN raised, in the end, it’s our conviction they 
lacked the courage to score the Master Matrix with the high standards JFAN 
urged and that such industrial operations require. 
 
This is just not acceptable. This was the county’s one opportunity to have some 
say on a confinement that may not only cause significant harm, but could open 
the door to more large-scale corporate farming.
 
Poignantly, one local organic century farmer employing six people less than two 
miles from the CAFO site emotionally spoke of her angst over the impending 
odors. Mr. Huber outrageously claimed his 7500-head CAFO wouldn’t smell except 
for when manure was applied. Really? He is currently in a lawsuit in Des Moines 
County because neighbors report odors are causing them serious harm. 
 
Further, the supervisors will not hold a public hearing as they typically do. 
Why? The supervisors said there wasn’t time to organize one according to DNR 
deadlines. However, if they had acted proactively as in the past, there would 
have been plenty of time to do just that.
 
But, as Supervisor Dimmitt said Monday morning, he’s heard it all before. 
 
Where our supervisors should have failed this Master Matrix, they failed 
Jefferson County residents by favoring an industrial operation proposed by a 
wealthy businessman and corporate entity that may cause substantial harm to our 
county. 
 
* Correction - An article published in the April 27, 2014 Burlington Hawkeye, 
"Agri-Way Makes Major Commitment" reports the actual number of intended CAFOs 
for southeast Iowa is 48.

New Solar Array Will Provide a Third of Campus Power
Construction is set to begin this summer on a five-acre field of solar panels 
on MUM land west of the recreational trail that borders the west side of 
campus. The 1.1-megawatt solar array will provide approximately one-third of 
the electricity used on campus and will be connected by an underground cable to 
the university’s substation.

The state-of-the-art solar panels will move to follow the path of the sun 
during the day. Excess energy will be stored in a battery bank for use during 
the night and during times of peak energy needs. The array will be one of 
Iowa’s largest, and the battery energy storage system will be the largest of 
its kind in the Midwest.

“This project is the culmination of years of design, engineering, and planning 
work by the local Fairfield solar company Ideal Energy together with university 
trustee Tom Factor,” said Tom Brooks, MUM vice president of operations.

Mr. Factor is a retired wind energy developer and researcher who has led the 
development of over 40 utility-scale wind farms. Ideal Energy, a leading solar 
company headed by MUM alumni Troy Van Beek and Amy Greenfield Van Beek, focuses 
on smart, scalable solar deployment.

The project, which will cost over $2 million and will be owned by an 
independent company, is being funded by private investment and by a loan from 
MUM that was made possible by donations, including grants from the Wege 
Foundation and the Schwartz Family Foundation. In addition, the Rona and 
Jeffrey Abramson Foundation and the MUM graduating classes of 2016 and 2017 
made donations to support the pre-development costs for the project.

The array, which will take about two months to complete, is projected to lower 
MUM’s cost of electricity by about a third over its 25-year life, saving 
hundreds of thousands of dollars.

In addition to the new array, MUM has a smaller array on the terrace west of 
the men’s dome, and a solar installation on the roof of the Schwartz-Guich 
Sustainable Living Center. Plus, a wind turbine south of the Sustainable Living 
Center also provides power to the campus.

Add these local sustainable sources to the fact that Alliant Energy, which 
provides electricity to campus, gets about 15 percent of its electricity from 
wind farms. The result is that over 43 percent of the university’s electricity 
will be from sustainable sources once the new array is complete this summer.

MUM continues to progress toward the goal of being a carbon-neutral campus and 
meeting the commitments the university has made to The American College & 
University Presidents’ Climate Commitment and to the Paris Climate Initiative.

“This new solar field is a big step forward in that continuing effort to 
promote life in accord with natural law,” Mr. Brooks said.

[FairfieldLife] Fwd: URGENT ACTION to take - Update I just got driving back from the State Capitol on Our Bill - voting regarding opting out of smart meters with no penalty fee, etc

2018-05-04 Thread Dick Mays dickm...@lisco.com [FairfieldLife]
Forwarded from: Lisa Ashelman 


Dear Fairfield, 
We are at the 11th hour of getting our Bill into the batch of Bills that will 
be voted on Saturday night. We do still have an opening for being one of the 
Bills that gets voted on tomorrow. After tomorrow this Session is over until 
next January which will be our next chance to get a Bill passed, if we are 
lucky enough to not have gotten smart meters beforehand. 

What we need you to do immediately today (and it has to be today) is to flood 
certain members of the House and Senate with phone calls and emails insisting 
that this Bill be passed. 

The certain members to flood right now are:
- Senator Mark Chelgren, mark.chelg...@legis.iowa.gov 
 
- the President of the Senate, Senator Charles Schneider 
charles.schnei...@legis.iowa.gov  
- the House Representative Pat Grassley, 
pat.grass...@legis.iowa.gov  Head of the 
House of Representatives - Appropriations Committee - (This is not Chuck 
Grassley). 

They have the most clout and interest for this situation, and may make that 
extra effort to be sure that our Bill makes it into this last category, so 
everyone can vote “Yes” on our Bill.  

Please email these 3 people "Please consider for a Standing Bill -  the Bill 
known as -  the Resurrected Curt Hansen Bill For Freedom Of Choice Of Meter And 
The Right To Keep Our Analogs, Or Return To Our Analogs."

If anyone feels industrious - we could also email the other Legislators.  But 
probably not yet; we don’t yet even have our Bill in the priority to vote on.  
They are deciding right now on 51 Bills -  to go in Standing catagory (voting). 
Our Bill is not in that Standing catagory yet, but it is being considered. 

If anyone can do a yagya for this in such short notice…..great.
Let's pray also. Support on the subtle. Everyone should see this as done, and 
feel the joy of being done.  See it all in bliss. 

Please pass this on as much as possible - calling friends also. Will keep you 
posted.

[FairfieldLife] Fwd: Politics: Know anyone who....?

2018-04-03 Thread Dick Mays dickm...@lisco.com [FairfieldLife]
>From Fairfield’s Julie Mandarino:


I’ve been concerned about the divisiveness in our country. One friend referred 
to it as a civil war. Although that seems rather extreme, my current interest 
is on finding ways to bridge the gap. To that end, I’ve become part of a group 
that promotes dialogue between Liberals and Conservatives, or Blues and Reds. 

The group started when a marriage therapist viewed the political divide in our 
country as akin to a couple on the brink of divorce. He trained some colleagues 
in group facilitation and went around the country leading groups of an equal 
number of Reds and Blues. The outcome was good enough that some other people 
have taken off with the idea.  By now, they have a national organization which 
they call “Better Angels” (not my favorite name).

You may be wondering, why am I writing to you? Apparently there are very few 
people in Iowa who have joined this organization (a total of 3, i think, 
including me). They contacted me to ask if I know any Reds in my area who might 
want to participate. ​​ Do you know any who might be interested in a 
structured, bi-partisan dialogue? If you do, feel free to forward this email to 
them, and they can then contact me about it. 

Here is a link about the group that I posted on FB last week, in case anyone 
wants to know a bit more about it:

[FairfieldLife] Fwd: Valuable Presentation on Wills and Trusts Saturday

2018-03-15 Thread Dick Mays dickm...@lisco.com [FairfieldLife]
Forwarded from Diane Rosenberg, drosenb...@lisco.com

Dear Friends,

This is a personal email from me. 

My friend, David Sykes, is offering a valuable seminar this weekend on modern 
legal estate planning. 

Until recently, I’ve always thought that all that was needed was a Will to 
easily pass assets and belongings on to loved ones. 

But I’ve seen firsthand that’s not the case – that a Will alone is not enough 
to avoid the stressful, detailed, time-consuming and expensive probate process. 

However, probate IS avoidable.

Check out this announcement, below. If you want to learn more, come to 
Revelations on Saturday, March 17 at noon to hear how Wills and Trusts together 
can save your loved ones a lot of hassle and expense at a time when they are 
not going to need more stress in their lives.

Best regards,
Diane


Why a Will Is Not Enough – A Presentation on How to Legally Protect Your Family 
and Assets and Avoid Probate Court

On Saturday, March 17, Iowa attorney David E. Sykes  
will offer a free legal seminar, "How to Best Utilize Wills and Trusts" that 
presents how you can ensure the smooth transfer of your estate through proper 
legal estate planning and documentation. The hour-long seminar takes place 
upstairs at Revelations Café, 112 N. Main Street Fairfield at noon. 

Sykes, whose does a significant amount of legal estate planning for Iowa 
residents, says it’s a common misunderstanding that a validly executed Will 
allows your estate to easily transfer to your beneficiaries. 

With effective planning, a Will, along with a validly executed Trust, can 
completely bypass Probate Court and all its pitfalls. The legal cost of proper 
legal estate planning and documentation is typically much less expensive than 
probate costs. 

Sykes will discuss the various components of holistic legal estate planning, 
which typically includes a Will, Revocable Trust (which becomes Irrevocable 
upon one’s passing), Living Will, and Medical Power of Attorney along with the 
facts you need to know in order to make informed decisions.

Very charming biographical article about Norman!

Forwarded from: Ken Chawkin 

Memorial post for Norman Zierold: Hollywood biographer, novelist, TM Teacher, 
member of Maharishi’s Purusha program, raconteur, publicist, beloved by all.

For those who live in Fairfield, Iowa, and can make it, there will be a special 
memorial service and cremation at Behner Funeral Home today, Friday, March 9 at 
2pm.

Norman Zierold: Hollywood biographer, novelist, TM Teacher, member of 
Maharishi’s Purusha program, raconteur, publicist, beloved by all

Norman Zierold: 7/26/1927–3/7/2018
A close friend and colleague, Norman Zierold, passed from this world early 
Wednesday morning, March 7, 2018. Beloved by all, he lived a long, culturally 
rich and spiritually devoted life.  

Born and raised in the Amana Colonies, Norman enlisted in the navy, graduated 
cum laude from Harvard, and earned a master’s degree in English Literature at 
the University of Iowa. He spent two years in France on a French Government 
Teaching Assistantship, then a decade in New York City, where he taught at 
Brearley School, worked at Collier’s Encyclopedia, then Theater Arts Magazine 
and Show.

Norman wrote eight books: true crime novels, tales of Hollywood’s golden age, 
and science fiction: The Child Stars, (1966); Little Charlie Ross, (1967); 
Three Sisters in Black, (1968), which won a Special Edgar Allen Poe Award; The 
Moguls; Garbo; (both 1969); The Skyscraper Doom, (1972); Sex Goddesses of the 
Silent Screen, (1973); and his final book, That Reminds Me, A Conversational 
Memoir (2013).

In 1972, Norman began the practice of Transcendental Meditation. He became a TM 
teacher and taught the technique to hundreds in Cedar Falls, Iowa. He later 
joined Maharishi’s Purusha program and eventually moved to Fairfield, Iowa in 
2002. Norman became part of a dynamic media team at Maharishi University of 
Management under the direction of Bob Roth. Norman’s accomplishments there were 
legendary!

Those of us who worked with Norman over the years were always impressed by his 
work ethic and ability to charm writers, editors, and producers into reporting 
on TM. Bob Roth, now CEO of the David Lynch Foundation, is fond of telling the 
story of how Norman inspired a national TV profile on the NBC Today Show for TM 
and the Nataki Talibah Schoolhouse

A few years later, when Bob and David Lynch showed it to Ray Dalio in a private 
meeting, it inspired him to give the David Lynch Foundation a donation of a 
million dollars for more school projects. This was the start of an ongoing 
relationship with DLF, now in 35 countries, and led to millions more over the 
years for many at-risk groups. Bob feels the successful launch of the 
Foundation was largely due to Norman’s efforts, and prepared a special message 
 about him for 
today’s memorial service.

Norman is survived by his sister Loretta Wolf, nephews Geoffrey and Mark, and 
niece Candice. A memorial service and cremation ceremony will take place 
Friday, March 9, 2018 at Behner Funeral Home in Fairfield.

Nothing kills your morning vibe faster than one of winter's most annoying 
manifestations: the frozen-over car windshield. You could resort to 
time-consuming methods like scraping the glass or letting the engine run for a 
while, neither of which is ideal if you're rushing to work. 

But there is a smarter, faster way: Spritz on a solution of water and rubbing 
alcohol and thank science as you watch the ice dissolve. 

The simple recipe: 

1/3 cup water
2/3 cup isopropyl or rubbing alcohol
Pour the mixture into the spray bottle, spritz and be gone

[FairfieldLife] Fwd: Alliant Smart Meter Update

2018-01-04 Thread Dick Mays dickm...@lisco.com [FairfieldLife]
Forwarded from: Einar Olsen 

All,

Thank you for any interest you have in protecting our personal and 
Super-Radiance environment from harm, in this case, from RF radiation from the 
smart meters Alliant Energy plans to roll out in Fairfield in early 2019. If 
you are one of the 450+ Sidhas who sent a letter to Alliant saying you do not 
want a ‘smart’ meter - Thank You  And if you are one of the hundreds who have 
filed a complaint with the Iowa Utility Board - Thank You.

This letter is not from Fairfield Safe Meters, but my own, based on my research 
and thinking. Thank you to Fairfield Safe Meters for the sincere desire and 
good actions to avoid RF meters. I apologize for the length of this email, but 
have been busy on Super-Radiance projects, and important and new information 
has accumulated.

Main Points
 
A. Temporary Discontinuation of Digital Meter Installation in Fairfield Area

B. Alliant Promises Responses to Questions and Criticisms

C. The IUB Process

D. How Strong is Our Case to Keep Analogs?

E. Please File Your Complaint !

A. Alliant Stops All Digital Meter Installation in the Fairfield Area until 
Meter Issue Resolved Here

Alliant has had two different smart meter projects in the Fairfield area, one 
on-going, and a different one planned. The planned complete roll-out to replace 
all meters in the area with smart meter is planned to take place in early 2019 
(with a nine).

In addition to, and separate from, their planned smart meter roll out for early 
2019, Alliant has had an ongoing spot-replacement of analog meters with digital 
meters in Fairfield area for years, by virtue of their ability (and possibly 
state requirement) to replace each meter every six years The digital meters 
Alliant has been installing all along here are not wireless meters (yet). They 
are smart meter not yet enabled to be wireless, but they can and will be made 
wireless in early 2019 when Alliant plans Fairfield to go RF.

But Alliant stated about ten days ago to Mayor Malloy that this on-going 
six-year replacement program HAS RECENTLY BEEN STOPPED FOR THE TIME BEING IN 
THE FAIRFIELD AREA until our smart meter matter here is resolved. This was 
likely caused, or at least powerfully reinforced, by Kathy Matara calling the 
Iowa Office of Consumer Advocate, who said it would take action to cause this 
stop in installation - Thank you Kathy !

If you know of anyone who says their analog meter has been replaced with a 
digital meter, beginning last week, please contact me, or Fairfield Safe 
Meters, immediately with the name and contact info of the Alliant customer who 
states his or her analog was replaced by a digital. Without the customer name, 
no need to let me know, no action would be possible without a customer name and 
contact info.

B. Alliant Promises Responses to Questions and Complaints

Alliant informed Mayor Malloy a couple weeks ago that they have collected about 
two dozen questions/complaints and that they are preparing a combined response 
to all of them.

C. The IUB Process - How It Works

When a large number of complaints about one issue reaches the IUB, they contact 
the  Iowa Office of the Consumer Advocate (OCA). 
https://www.iowaattorneygeneral.gov/for-consumers/office-of-consumer-advocate-utilities/
 


The IUB regulates utilities. The OCA defends the consumer or customer. In 
practice, the UIB and the OCA work together and share info to first see if the 
utility can resolve the customer complaint without a hearing. This is basically 
a mediation activity on the part of the IUB and OCA. If this is unsuccessful, 
then an IUB hearing is scheduled.

* I am waiting to hear from the IUB if the complaint needs to be seen by the 
IUB as reasonable, or if a sufficiently large number of complaints, or a filing 
of what is called an FCU by customers, will make a hearing required, or whether 
the IUB needs to feel a complaint by many is reasonable, in order for a hearing 
to be held.

The IUB has told us that this negotiation process of ‘smart meters in 
Fairfield’ is “in its infancy.” This week, the IUB is expected to take its 
first action in this matter, despite the fact that Alliant has not yet filed a 
request with the IUB to work this out, or to charge opt out fees. The IUB 
expects that their first action this week will be to ask Alliant if it would 
like to submit any more information to the IUB regarding Fairfield refusal 
letters and complaints. This is part of the IUB/OCA process to try to resolve 
this without a hearing.

Alliant’s standard statement is that the IUB must approve its smart meters and 
smart meter system. But, the IUB has made it clear to many that Alliant does 
not need IUB approval to install smart meters, as long as the meters meet 
required standard specifications. The IUB governs only rates, tariffs (such as 
opt out fees,) and customer service.

Fairfield Safe Meters December 17 Update

Dear Fairfield Community,
​
In light of the recent unacceptable response letters from Alliant to our 
Refusal Letters, ​we want to share with you some news on how we can still 
succeed at keeping our Analogs. 

We have had a number of reports from people in Fairfield that their Analogs 
have been switched out to a digital or a smart meter, without notice or 
approval. We need to act now to dramatically increase our number of filed 
online complaint forms. 
​ ​
If you have not already done so, you can follow this link to the complaint form 
online and get all your friends to do the same this week,  

This Complaint form is the foundation for all of our next steps to keep our 
Analogs or get them back.
 
Here is the online complaint form:
https://iub.iowa.gov/complaint-form 

 (See bottom of email for list of suggested complaints).
 
Its helpful if you write your complaint to us first in an email at 
fairfieldsafemeters.compla...@gmail.com 
 and then cut and paste that 
wording into your complaint form so we can collect and count them.

NEWS AND INFORMATION:  We want to make sure you know how the process will work 
to retain or regain Analog Meters so we are hosting a Community Meeting.
 
 -- Thursday, Dec 21, 2017 at Phoenix Rising 7:30-9:00 PM --

In the meantime we would like to inform you about the following:

A. How the Iowa Utility Board (IUB) functions
B. Alliant's Rights and Decisions
C. How do we go about achieving our goal of keeping Analog Meters?​

(A). How the IUB functions:  The IUB, has control and influence in two areas 
only: 

1. Rate control:

Anything to do with rates and rate increases, including tariffs such as the 
ones that Alliant claims they will charge us if we opt out.

​ 2​. Customer Service ​Enforcement​​:

The IUB has the responsibility to enforce their Utility Companies to treat 
their customers fairly and with good customer service, so they do not take 
advantage of the power they have being a monopoly.
 
The IUB has the authority to accept complaints about the Utility Companies it 
oversees. Complaints ​from Individuals​ are answered by the IUB and copied to 
the Office of Consumer Advocacy (OCA), whom they work closely with to make sure 
that their Utility Companies customers are satisfied.
 
When any complaint is filed against a Utility Company such as Alliant, the​ IUB 
is ​required to respond to​ that individual ​with a proposed solution.  The 
complainant has 14 days after the IUB has ​proposed a solution​ to their 
complaint, to either accept their solution, or ask for a hearing in person with 
the IUB and the opposing Utility Company present.  
 
​If the IUB sees many, complaints come in, in a short space of time that are 
similar in nature, th​at group can qualify to file what is called an F.C.U. 
docket, and that is when the OCA (which has an Attorney on staff),  is called 
into action to defend that injured group in the IUB Hearing. 

Yes, at that point, the OCA is here to defend us. 
 
This is our goal, to turn in enough complaints about Alliant​'s refusing to 
allow us to keep our Analogs, to​ ​warrant​ a Hearing​ in​ which they ​(​OCA​)​ 
will present to the IUB our group of complaints, claiming that there is a 
massive customer service problem​, and defend our case (which is their job as 
consumer advocates).
 
The OCA has told us this is the only circumstance under which they will defend 
our position in a hearing setting​. The OCA said it is very much like Court, 
and we will be invited to have an Attorney defend our case.
 
(B) Alliant’s Rights and Decisions:

​The IUB has explained to FFSM that Alliant already has the right to grant us 
an opt out including Analogs. The IUB clearly states that it does not interfere 
with such decisions Alliant is making. Omitting or including Analog Meters in 
the opt-out program is entirely up to Alliant and the IUB/OCA will not 
interfere, UNLESS there is a large customer base that is unsatisfied with 
Allian's decisions.
 
​*​Alliant has made an internal decision to refuse to allow Analogs to be a 
part of the opt out, of their own volition, not because of guidance from the 
IUB, nor will Alliant be seeking or securing input on this decision from the 
IUB.

We have been misled on this point.
 
(​C). How do we go about achieving our goal of retaining or regaining our 
Analog Meters?​
 
The IUB ​has told FFSM that it ​has no agenda for

Maharishi Marma Therapy
To Become Available Again

Marma Therapy was introduce around 1989 by Maharishi as yet another approach to 
enhancing personal evolution by strengthening the mind/body connection. It was 
put on hold when Maharishi asked where were the references in the Vedic 
Literature that supported this approach as an authentic Vedic approach to 
health. At that time, very little was known, so Maharishi stopped the promotion 
of this therapy until it developed enough. 

Dr Ernst Schrott has since then been working quietly on this therapy and 
researching the supporting knowledge in the Vedic texts. The roll-out of this 
revived knowledge will first be in training courses for health professionals 
who will apply this approach in clinics. Get a taste of what's to come in these 
two introductory videos:

Dear Fairfield 
 
Dear Fairfield Community, Attorney General Office Visit Was A Great Success. 
 
60-70 Sidhas attended the visit of the Iowa Deputy Attorney General Nathan 
Blake and Fraud expert Al Perales, filling most of the seats in the Senior 
Center, with a number of people standing. It was exciting, and our gratitude to 
all of you who came - your presence was so important - a key message to both 
the Atty General office, and to KTVO and the FF Ledger, who both did stories. 
 
Important Announcement that took place at the event: Mayor Ed Malloy decided on 
the basis of the strong attendance, and the firm and strong statements made by 
many, to renew his efforts to negotiate with Alliant Energy to allow us to keep 
our analog meters. Alliant had given him no room on that previously, but the 
strength of your turn out inspired Ed to re-continue. So THANK YOU again for 
coming ! 
 
IT'S TIME TO ALL FILE COMPLAINTS !
 
The Iowa Utilities Board has an online complaint form.
 
Please access that form (link is below), with your name, address, Alliant 
account number, etc.
 
Within the dashed lines (below) is some sample text for you to place, in the

NOTE: the "Description of Complaint" box may seem to be tiny, but it will 
actually hold quite a bit of text, so you can copy and paste the Suggested Text 
(below) into the box.

1. Alliant is attempting to force me to accept, use and pay for Smart Meter 
technology that I do not believe is safe for myself and family.
 
2. Alliant is refusing to acknowledge my rights as a consumer to choose the 
product that I trust and consider safe. I sent a Certified Mail Refusal Letter 
to Alliant Energy insisting that I be offered the right to keep my Analog 
meter. I was told that Alliant will disregard my letter. When I walked into the 
Alliant Open House they posted on Q & A, Q. Can I keep my Analog? A. NO. Then 
the phone call to Alliant they suggested we make, is an ‘Opt-In’ to whatever 
options they are deciding to offer, disregarding what we want. We were told we 
would have a contract to review and we have not been given one, we have nothing 
in writing.
 
3. Alliant's alternative technology, called the "Digital Meter" is also not 
acceptable to me as it causes Dirty Electricity which is a known health hazard.
 
4. Alliant Customer Service Representative told me on the phone that if I 
insist on keeping my Analog, I may end up with no Power at all which is life 
threatening in the Winter and unlawful, taking unfair advantage of their 
monopoly, and using unreasonable force.
 
5. Alliant has misrepresented the facts of the Smart Meter radiation and 
functioning details on their website. Measurements made on Alliant smart meters 
in Wisconsin show radiation several times a minute. Alliant is telling people 
that radiation is 6 times per day.
 
6. The meter they are installing has a history of starting fires.
 
7. I do not want to live in a town covered by EMF smog, a cloud of radiation. I 
am not willing to have radiation in my home and town around the clock with no 
ability to turn it off, escape from or obtain relief from its influence.
 
8. I am not interested in allowing the surveillance abilities of the Smart 
Meters to monitor any of the activities in my home. I do not want the usage of 
my appliances collected and sent to any other party, I consider this a 
violation of the 4th Amendment to the Constitution.
 
IN SUMMARY: I want to keep my Analog meter and not have to pay a fine or 
penalty initially or periodically thereafter for this arrangement.

Important: Amtrak is proposing cuts for financial reasons and is considering 
cutting all Iowa stops!! To help this NOT happen, please call 202-224-3121 
 and follow the prompts to reach the office of the 
senator or representative from your area. I just made three quick calls for 
both senators and my representative, and it took a total of about 5 minutes. 
All I had to do was leave my zip, name, address, and in one case my phone

PETITION UPDATE
Please Call Alliant Energy to Opt Out . We need numbers , don't hesitate.

The People of Fairfield & MUM
Fairfield, IA

NOV 25, 2017 — The numbers of people opting out will determine a yes or no for 
the entire opt out program. There have to be enough to make it worthwhile for 
Alliant to offer a separate system. A few important points.

Call Alliant Energy at 1-800-255-4268 and give your account number. You may be 
able to keep the meter you now have, depending upon the age. Some agents will 
tell you the age, some don't have the data. There are different call centers. 
But please get your name and account in the system.

There will likely be no contract other than an agreement that if you don't send 
in readings or contact Alliant for 2 months, you defer to a smart meter. But 
that's easily remedied. Pay ahead or call Alliant if you are going out of town. 

There are people in Fairifeld spreading confused and false information that the 
Alliant opt out is a "scam." Please don't believe this confused information. 
Those people have an agenda of their own, and are following an internet video 
which suggests not to opt out. This would have the end result of smart meters 
going in all over town and no opt out at all. Mayor Ed Malloy has negotiated 
this opt out with Alliant Energy. It's totally legitimate unless we don't have 
enough numbers. If we don't have enough numbers, say, under 500 customers 
opting out, we will likely be turned down for an opt out program by the Iowa 
State Utility board. So please call and join the program and tell your 
neighbors to do the same. An engineer may visit your house in a year or so to 
determine the age of your current meter. If it is replaced with a Non 
transmitting digital meter. That is an okay alternative. All transmitting 
meters bear an FCC ID on them, other wise they are just ordinary digital meters 
which are already all over town and campus and create no problem. 

Thank you for your help with getting the numbers of opt out up and cutting 
through the confusion.

Dear Friends,
 
I think this is a well-constructed conglomeration of points that are essential 
for our community to know about, before engaging with Alliant.
 
I suggest we send it out far and wide so all can be alerted. As we know, there 
are still a lot of people in town who are fairly clueless or confused about 
what is going on around them.  

We all have a continuity of understanding, having been involved for months now.
 
So for the protection of EVERYONE, I feel it is ESSENTIAL to be informed of the 
practical points below.
 
The below was written by Kathy Matara, and we thank her immensely for all her 
efforts.  If you have not watched the presentation made by Kathy and Robert 
Palmer Monday night at the City Council, I suggest you watch it.  I thought 
they did a spectacular job—very balanced and a lot of ground covered with very 
little time allotted.
 
Here is the link.  Also I suggest sending this to everyone.

PLEASE READ THIS:
The Nov 16 Open House with Alliant:
 
Regarding the Alliant open house this Thursday November 16th, nobody has seen 
the Alliant opt out form and contract that they will bring to this meeting.
 
The precedent in other areas of the world with these “opt out” forms and 
contracts (and the forms may be boiler plate as opposed to designed by our own 
Utility Company), has been for them to include hidden language and phrases that 
give the Utility Companies the option to upgrade the “opt out” customer to 
digital meters, and later to the Smart Meter grid. They also have not included 
an option to keep your Analog.
 
Therefore, if you choose to go to this meeting, we respectfully suggest picking 
up but not yet signing the Alliant “opt out” forms and contracts until after 
our attorneys review them.
 
We will let you know the results of that review. Proper paperwork needs to be 
filled out in order to keep your Analog meter, even when the option to keep it 
has been promised by the Utility Company. 

 
Many on Kauai who didn't complete their paperwork properly, ended up with Smart 
Meters. 
 
We also recommend that you avoid using the words ”opt out” if/when you talk to 
Alliant, because Alliant’s definition may be different than ours. Giving your 
name to “opting out” may obligate you to an agreement that has not yet been 
edited by our attorneys. The language that is most accurate is to say you want 
to keep your Analog meter permanently.
 
If you have a digital meter already, then it is most accurate to say you want 
your analogue back and keep it permanently.

If they say that isn’t possible, then say you will be happy to purchase one 
online and pay for it to be re-installed.
 
Please note also that if you signed a Certified Refusal Letter, you will still 
need to go through the process of signing an attorney-edited agreement with 
Alliant to keep your analogue or have your current digital meter replaced. 
Because as far as we know, Alliant has not responded to the Certified Refusal 
Letters.
 
In any case, please don’t feel you must go to this “Open House” to get the “opt 
out” agreement form or contract. It will have to be made available by Alliant 
on request.
 
In addition, please don’t believe the demonstrations if they purport to show 
you how much radiation comes from a Smart Meter. Unless the AMI “mesh network” 
is set up and fully functional in a neighborhood on the mesh network grid, you 
will not get reliable readings.
 
Smart meters don’t function or radiate independently. They have to be connected

[FairfieldLife] Fwd: Alliant Energy to hold meeting on smart meters -- Fairfield Ledger Today

Alliant Energy to hold meeting on smart meters

By Andy Hallman, Ledger news editor | Nov 14, 2017 
Alliant Energy and Iowa State University will hold a public meeting Thursday to 
discuss smart meters.

The meeting will last from 4-8 p.m. at the Fairfield Arts & Convention Center. 
Refreshments will be provided.

Booths will be set up in the building to educate the public on smart meters. A 
smart meter is a device that records energy usage and communicates it to the 
utility for billing.

On its website, Alliant Energy claims smart meters identify outages more 
quickly than traditional meters. The new meters also enable the utility to read 
meters without having to drive by each house to collect the data.

Alliant claims smart meters will be better poised to integrate power from 
cleaner renewable energy sources, including wind and rooftop solar systems.

Alliant senior communications partner Justin Foss said it will take Alliant a 
few years to install smart meters, and it likely won’t start in Fairfield until 
early 2019.

He said Alliant customers can opt out of smart meters, but they will need to 
call the utility at 800-255-4268.

He said the utility has not decided what, if any, fee to charge for opting out.

Foss said he understands a number of people in Fairfield are worried about 
health effects from the smart meter’s radio transmissions. He said Alliant’s 
smart meters are different from other utilities in that its meters communicate 
with a central hub, and communicate with it six times per day for a total of 
just under 1 second per day.

Other utilities employ a “mesh network” in which one meter sends signals to an 
adjacent meter, which sends them to an adjacent meter, and so on, leading to 
many more signals being sent during the day than under a hub-and-spoke system.

 Residents ask for citywide opt out

The Fairfield City Council heard from two residents at its meeting Monday 
requesting that the entire town opt out of Alliant Energy’s plan to install 
smart meters.

The two residents were Robert Palma and Kathy Matara. They said the radio 
frequency radiation smart phones emit can cause health problems such as pain, 
sickness, heart palpatations and muscle twitching. They called for the city to 
return to analog readers.

Mayor Ed Malloy said having the whole city opt out of smart meters was a “huge 
step,” and that the council would have to study the issue more before making a 
decision.

“The first step is education,” Malloy said, encouraging those in attendance to 
attend Alliant’s meeting Thursday.

[FairfieldLife] Fwd: Stopping Iowa Select - CAFOs

2017-11-07 Thread Dick Mays dickm...@lisco.com [FairfieldLife]
 


 

Bhavani,

Iowans are saying NO MORE factory farms and YES to clean water and our quality 
of life.

Last night, dozens of CCI members and others in north central Iowa met to 
strategize how we fight back and pressure Iowa Select -- Iowa's largest hog 
factory corporation -- the Department of Natural Resources, and our elected 
officials to stop Iowa Select's applications to build 19 new factory farms.

And, last week, more than 350 CCI members sent emails directly to Iowa Select 
CEO Jeff Hansen to asking for a meeting – but he still has not responded to our 
request. 

>>Can you take two minutes to keep the pressure on?<<

Sign this petition 

 at: https://iowacci.ourpowerbase.net/civicrm/petition/sign?sid=40=1

calling on Jeff Hansen to withdraw all factory farm applications and meet with 
community members impacted by Iowa Select’s factory farms

Please respond to this email to let us know what Iowa Select says about our 
request. 

If approved, Jeff Hansen’s factory farms will dump an estimated 36.7 million 
gallons of untreated manure on our land and into our water.  He gets the 
profits – we get the pollution. 

Let’s make him feel the pressure from Iowans to want an ag system the works for 
farmers, workers, eaters, and the environment – not for big polluters just 
looking to make a buck.

They DUMP it! You DRINK it! We won’t STOP til’ they clean it up!

[FairfieldLife] Fwd: Smart Meters & Truth Updated

2017-11-02 Thread Dick Mays dickm...@lisco.com [FairfieldLife]
Forwarded from the below friend, who asked for the name to be deleted:

This information comes to you as a courtesy. If you choose to forward it, 
please delete my name.

>From a Fairfield Resident….
 
Mayor Ed Malloy invited me to have a private meeting with him to discuss Smart 
Meters, and I am so glad he did. Although I am not in favor of Smart Meters, 
much of the information being disseminated by those opposed to them is divisive 
and inaccurate. 

Ed has been working with Alliant since February, and Alliant agreed to an 
opt-out policy months ago, long before the group opposed to Smart Meters even 
existed. No petition for opting out is necessary, as Alliant has long agreed. 
Alliant also agreed long ago to let people keep their own meters. Therefore, 
much of the information being presented at the meeting tonight is inaccurate, 
incomplete, and misleading. As Ed has pointed out, we don't need petitions to 
force Alliant to do what they have long agreed to do.
 
The group opposed to Smart Meters is not telling people that if you opt out of 
Smart Meters you will have to read your own meters every month and follow a 
reporting process. You will have to pay an extra charge for this manual method, 
as it will be more expensive for Alliant to process the data.  This information 
is not being presented at tonight’s meeting.
If you choose for a Smart Meter, Alliant has agreed to program it so that it 
has a radio-wave burst only twice a day for a just a few seconds—and at the 
time of your choosing. This is far less damaging than wireless or a cell phone 
in your house. Alliant is really working well with Ed and the community, and 
those in the anti-Smart Meter group are simply refusing to believe the truths 
they are being told. They are even claiming that Smart Meters will be on all 
the time and will be used to collect covert data on US 
citizens—conspiracy-theory stuff.
 
A community open house will be held at the Sondheim on Thursday, November 16, 
from 4:00 pm to 8:00 pm, where Alliant representatives will present all the 
information people need to know. Mayor Malloy will be there as well. This is 
the event that community members should be encouraged to attend.
 
While I am not in favor of Smart Meters. I am in favor of truthful and 
responsible information dissemination about this topic. We need scientific 
facts, not distorted and exaggerated hype that upsets people unnecessarily.
 
In peace-

[FairfieldLife] Fwd: From President Hagelin – Please join me at the very important CAFO meeting Thursday night

2017-10-17 Thread Dick Mays dickm...@lisco.com [FairfieldLife]
Forwarded from: Maharishi University of Management 
Subject: From President Hagelin – Please join me at the very important CAFO 
meeting Thursday night


Dear students, faculty, staff, and community members,

Please join me for a very important meeting on Thursday, October 19, to address 
an issue that affects us all and determines, to a great extent, the quality of 
life and future of our community.

The incursion of unwanted CAFOs in Jefferson County has been an ongoing 
concern, and over the past year in my role as president of Maharishi University 
of Management, stemming the growth of CAFOs has become one of my most pressing 
priorities.

All that we have achieved through our Consciousness-Based Education programs, 
and all that our business community has accomplished to support the local 
economy, could be in jeopardy because of CAFOs, which are spreading like 
wildfire across the state.

Thankfully, through the tireless work of Jefferson County Farmers and Neighbors 
(JFAN), the growth of noxious CAFOs in our community has been held to a 
minimum—in dramatic contrast to our neighbors. At this critical moment, we need 
JFAN more than ever—to ensure the environmental integrity of our community and 
to prevent the unrestrained proliferation of CAFOs in Jefferson County!

This year's JFAN Annual Meeting, “Breaking the Grip of Corporate Agriculture on 
Rural Iowa,” features agricultural insider Alan Guebert, the award-winning 
columnist of the popular Farm and Food File, syndicated weekly to 70 U.S. and 
Canadian newspapers.  “I really do believe there is a way out of this mess,” 
says Guebert, who will share his vision of how that can be accomplished. 
Guebert contends that there is a role for everyone in driving change, and he 
will outline ways our community can step up its game.

Johnson Country Supervisor Mark Carberry, will join Guebert to discuss what 
Johnson County is doing to address the CAFO situation in his county and what we 
all need to do to force changes that protect people and the environment. Dr. 
John Ikerd, Professor Emeritus at the University of Missouri at Columbia and a 
member of the JFAN Board of Directors, will provide an overview of industrial 
farming and its stranglehold on the Iowa legislature.

David Sykes, JFAN legal counsel, will give a legal update on the Iowa Supreme 
Court challenge to the last vestige of the Iowa Right to Farm Law, how to 
analyze and challenge the new Nuisance Law passed this year, and how we could 
beat infringing CAFOs in courts of law and in the court of public opinion! 
We'll also find out about a new case filed in Jefferson County regarding a CAFO 
south of Maharishi Vedic City.

Once again JFAN has a splendid Annual Meeting planned for us! I encourage you 
to attend not only because of the breadth of information that will be shared, 
but I urge you to join me at this must-attend event because a packed house at 
the Sondheim is essential for driving a strong message to the pork industry 
that CAFOs are not welcome in Jefferson County. This is a simple, enjoyable, 
yet essential way that you can help protect our precious meditating community.

Please mark on your calendar — Thursday, October 19 at 7:15 pm at the Fairfield 
Arts & Convention Center, 200 N. Main Street, Fairfield, IA. The meeting is 
open to the public and free of charge.

I look forward to seeing you there!

John Hagelin, President
Maharishi University of Management

P.S. We cannot afford to diminish our support for JFAN, which is pushing hard 
for a statewide CAFO moratorium in addition to efforts to keep CAFOs out of 
Jefferson County. These issues affect each and every one of us today, and 
future generations that will inherit Consciousness-Based Education.

Three Contractors Bid On a Job To Repair The White House Fence


 


One is from Chicago, another is from Kentucky, and the third isfrom New

All three go with a White House official to examine the fence. 


 


The New Orleans contractor takes out a tape measure and does somemeasuring, 
then works some figures with a pencil.


 


"Well," he says, "I figure the job will run about$9,000. That's $4,000 for 
materials, $4,000 for my crew and $1,000 profit forme."


 


The Kentucky contractor also does some measuring and figuring,then says, "I can 
do this job for $7,000.


 


That's $3,000 for materials, $3,000 for my crew and $1,000 profitfor me."


 


The Chicago contractor doesn't measure or figure, but leans overto the White 
House official and whispers, "$27,000." 


 


The official, incredulous, says, "You didn't even measurelike the other guys. 
How did you come up with such a high figure?


 


"The Chicago contractor whispers back, "$10,000 for me,$10,000 for you, and we 
hire the guy from Kentucky to fix the fence."


 


"Done!" replies the government official.


 


And that, my friends, is how the Government Stimulus plan worked

Dear Scrotty Students,




 



Cecil Rhodes’s generous bequest has contributed greatly to the comfort

this means – and it would not remotely surprise us if that were the case



– then we really think you should ask yourself the question: “Why am I



at Oxford?”



 



Oxford, let us remind you, is the world’s second oldest extant



university. Scholars have been studying here since at least the 11th



century. We’ve played a major part in the invention of Western



civilisation, from the 12th century intellectual renaissance through the



Enlightenment and beyond. Our alumni include William of Ockham, Roger



Bacon, William Tyndale, John Donne, Sir Walter Raleigh, Erasmus, Sir



Christopher Wren, William Penn, Rep. Adam Smith (D-WA), Samuel Johnson,



Robert Hooke, William Morris, Oscar Wilde, Emily Davison, Cardinal



Newman. We’re a big deal. And most of the people privileged to come and



study here are conscious of what a big deal we are. Oxford is their alma



mater – their dear mother – and they respect and revere her accordingly.



 



And what were your ancestors doing in that period? Living in mud huts,



mainly. Sure we’ll concede you the short lived Southern African



civilisation of Great Zimbabwe. But let’s be brutally honest here. The



contribution of the Bantu tribes to modern civilisation has been as near



as damn it to zilch.



 



You’ll probably say that’s “racist”. But it’s what we here at Oxford



prefer to call “true.” Perhaps the rules are different at other



universities. In fact, we know things are different at other



universities. We’ve watched with horror at what has been happening



across the pond from the University of Missouri to the University of



Virginia and even to revered institutions like Harvard and Yale: the



“safe spaces”; the ??blacklivesmatter; the creeping cultural relativism;



the stifling political correctness; what Allan Bloom rightly called “the



closing of the American mind”. At Oxford however, we will always prefer



facts and free, open debate to petty grievance-mongering, identity



politics and empty sloganeering. The day we cease to do so is the day we



lose the right to call ourselves the world’s greatest university.



 



Of course, you are perfectly within your rights to 

[FairfieldLife] Fwd: An Invitation to the Women Sidhas of our Community

2017-09-27 Thread Dick Mays dickm...@lisco.com [FairfieldLife]
An Invitation to the Women Sidhas of our Community
(Note to all men receiving this announcement: Please encourage the 
participation of the women Sidhas that you know. Thank you!)
 
Dear Friends,
 
When Maharishi said, in the 1960's, "I will fill the world with love and create 
Heaven on Earth," he reminded us of the mechanics by which life on Earth can be 
transformed, and he gave us the means to activate those mechanics through the 
group dynamics of our TM-Sidhi program. Love is nothing other than the unifying 
force of Natural Law, and it resides in such natural fullness in the hearts of 
‘mothers’. Whether we are mothers in the sense that we have our own children, 
or we are mothers in the sense that we are looking after the welfare of all 
those around us, or we are mothers in the sense that we nourish the nation and 
the world every time we sit to do our program, we are instruments in the Hands 
of the Divine through which the nourishing power of the force of evolution 
flows to the world in the quality of mother. 
 
I am writing to you with the hope that together, as the ‘mothers’ of our 
community, we can re-enliven our collective practice of Super Radiance in a 
practical, comfortable and consistently ‘doable’ way, such that we can fulfill 
our original intention to create an influence powerful enough to change the 
world.  As we look at the state of our nation and the world, we are reminded 
that Maharishi told us that if we didn’t maintain our numbers, the transition 
to a better time could be rough. The polarization of our politics, the recent 
barrage of storms and hurricanes, and the looming threat of North Korea and 
terrorism, is all enough to prove that point.  And even more close to home is 
our own sense that time is precious and there is still so much that each one of 
us would like to accomplish. Whatever it is that we all hope for in this life, 
we can make it happen more easily with the collective support that is created 
by Super Radiance.
 
I invite everyone to join myself and Dr. Linda Birx, and so many of our 
dedicated women Sidhas, in the Ladies Dome on Victory Day, this Saturday, 
September 30th at 3:00. Come and think with us about how we can maximize group 
program attendance and fulfill the very purpose of our Sidha community.
 
Looking forward to seeing you this Saturday
 
Jai Guru Dev
 
Raj Rajeshwari Candace Badgett
 
Quotes from Maharishi regarding the need for group program:
1) "Now I do want to emphasize the need for group program very much, because 
the situation in the world is such that it needs urgent purification of the 
whole atmosphere... Nobody may remind you of the importance of group 
meditation... It is enough that I have brought this to your attention once in a 
lifetime. Follow it through your life. You will be doing such a great service 
to the whole world which cannot be rendered in any other way."
2) On the importance of group program: "This knowledge alone will save the 
world. If you knew how important it was you would do nothing else."
3) "Government is not an independent entity. It depends on the collective 
consciousness of the nation. Government is silently governed by the collective 
consciousness of the people. A strong influence of coherence in collective 
consciousness is the only hope."

[FairfieldLife] Fwd: Don't Want Alliant Wireless Smart Meters in Fairfield? Meeting TONIGHT

2017-09-26 Thread Dick Mays dickm...@lisco.com [FairfieldLife]
From: Diane Rosenberg 


Dear Friends,

This is a personal email from me.

Alliant Energy wants to install wireless meters in Fairfield. 

There's going to be community meeting at the Fairfield Public Library tonight, 
Tuesday September 26 at 7:45 pm. If you are concerned about being exposed to 
the radiation from these meters, here is a chance to learn more and to find out 
how we can oppose the meters or push for an opt out as we did with the water 
meters.

I'm forwarding the following email from committee organizers.

Best,

Diane



ATTN:  ALLIANT ENERGY WILL BE INSTALLING WIRELESS SMART METERS TO ALL CUSTOMERS 

According to Daniel Hirsch, radiation expert “UCSC “ “This Wireless smart meter 
will produce 50-160 times more cumulative whole body exposure of microwave 
radiation than one cell phone close to the ear.”— 

Research shows that pulsed microwave RF (radio frequency) transmitted via Smart 
meter disrupts the entire human nervous system and inflicts DNA damage. Many 
people report brain fog, inability to sleep, headaches, tinnitus, burning in 
the joints etc. 

Multiple studies correlate RF (radio frequency ) exposures with diseases such 
as cancer , neurological disease, immune dysfunction , and electromagnetic 
hypersensitivity.

The microwave radiation emitted by these meters will create a strong RF field 
of radiation effecting everyone living in the buildings, in particular those in 
close proximity on all 3 floors. 

We need to organize to arrange an opt out for everyone who desires it.. There 
is no assurance of an opt out at this time.

Alliant energy will be coming to present their side of the issue in October. 

Before that we are having a community meeting. Please attend.

ALL COMMUNITY MEETING at Fairfield Public Library Tuesday, September 26 7:45 PM 
Please come, this issue effects everyone and the welfare of the community.

Reinventing A New Direction










 














 
 
 
 
 
 
 
William D . Leed Iii  Col. Ret, when Congress returns this week, there will be 
a mad rush toward a number of deadlines, with important legislation being 
tackled. Some of it presents an opportunity, some of it requires us to follow 
the old call for eternal vigilance. 
I’ll summarize a few of them for you, but please, keep an eye on your email and 
our social media for updates on this, and things will move quickly.


BUDGETS AND SPENDING 
The government’s fiscal year ends September 30, which means the bills to fund 
the government for the NEXT year must pass by then. Of course, they will try to 
spend too much, and we will fight them. One way we can do that is by offering 
amendments to cut specific programs. I plan to offer one to cut all the 
programs featured over the past year in my “Government Waste” project, which 
would save billions. 
They will also need to pass a Budget, which is the blueprint. To that bill, I 
will offer multiple amendments to cut spending and will fight to cut taxes for 
every American as well. We can do both. 


DEBT CEILING 
You’ve probably seen some of my updates on this one. It’s time to CUT UP the 
credit card that has us nearly 20 TRILLION in debt. 
The government needs permission to borrow money. Congress has routinely given 
itself permission to bury our country in debt, and it is out of control. 
They’ll run out of borrowing authority VERY soon, so watch for this fight in 
the next week or two. 
I don’t think we should shut down the government. But I’m fine with making them 
live with only what they take in. That’s what American do every day. 
You can join our fight to cut up their cards HERE.


NATIONAL DEFENSE AND WAR AUTHORIZATION 
Just before recess, I stopped consideration of the National Defense 
Authorization Act (NDAA) because I’m going to insist on two crucial debates and 
amendments.  
First, our Afghanistan and Iraq war authorizations are 15 years old. We should 
be out of both places, but if they want to stay in, they should have a new 
debate and vote on a new authorization. We shouldn’t be obligating soldiers who 
were in diapers when this was passed to go to war on this premise.  
Second, I am working with Senators Lee and Feinstein to end the authorization 
for Indefinite Detention of American citizens. 


It will be a busy few weeks, and I’ll need your help as each battle heats up. 
Signing petitions, making phone calls, sharing on social media – those are help 
us make sure YOUR voice is there to back me up in the Senate. 
RANDPAC helps amplify that voice and reach millions more Americans during every 
battle, through emails, ads and other media.  So if you can, please continue to 
help and support RANDPAC as we go into this crucial time.

nazis
  
      

   

(excerpts)
Erwin Rommel was almost as popular as Hitler. Some Arabs 
used "Heil Rommel" as a common greeting in Arab countries.  
After France's defeat by Nazi Germany in 1940, some Arabs 
were chanting against the French and British around the 
streets of Damascus: "No more Monsieur, no more Mister, 
Allah's in Heaven and Hitler's on earth."  Posters in Arabic 
stating "In heaven God is your ruler, on earth Hitler" were 
frequently displayed in shops in the towns of Syria. 

 Sami al-Jundi, wrote:

    "We were racists. We admired the Nazis. We were immersed 
    in reading Nazi literature and books that were the 
    source of the Nazi spirit. We were the first who thought 
    of a translation of Mein Kampf. Anyone who lived in < br 
id="yiv5415862940yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1492069304204_47929" clear="none">    
Damascus at that time was witness to the Arab 
    inclination toward Nazism. Michel Aflaq a founder of the 
    Ba'athist philosophy admired Hitler and the Nazis for 
    standing up to Britain and America. This admiration 
    would combine aspects of Nazism into Ba'athism."

The two most noted Arab politicians who actively 
collaborated with the Nazis were Grand Mufti of Jerusalem 
(al Quds) Haj Amin al-Husseini,  and the Iraqi prime 
minister Rashid Ali al-Gaylani.

Adolf Hitler met with Haj Amin al-Husseini on 28 November 
1941. The official German notes of that meeting contain 
numerous references to combatting Jews both inside and 
outside Europe. The following excerpts from that meeting are 
statements from Hit ler to the Mufti:

    Germany stood for uncompromising war against the Jews. 
    That naturally included active opposition to the Jewish 
    national home in Palestine, which was nothing other than 
    a center, in the form of a state, for the exercise of 
    destructive influence by Jewish interests. ... This was 
    the decisive struggle; on the political plane, it 
    presented itself in the main as a conflict between 
    Germany and England, but ideologically it was a battle 
    between National Socialism and the Jews. It went without 
    saying that Germany would furnish positive and practical 
    aid to the Arabs involved in the same struggle...

Hitler had been much impressed by a scrap of history he had 
learned from a delegation of distinguished Arabs." The 
delegation had speculated that the world would have become 
"Mohammedan" if the Berbers and Arabs had won the Battle of 
Tours in the 8th Century AD, and that the Germans would have 
become heirs to "a religion that believed in spreading the 
faith by the sword and in subjugating all nations to that 
faith. Such a creed was perfectly suited to the German 
temperament."  Speer then presents Hitler's claims on this 
subject:

Hitler said that the conquering Arabs, because of their 
racial inferiority, would in the long run have been unable 
to contend with the harsher climate of the country. They 
could not have kept down the more vigorous natives, so that 
ultimately not Arabs but Islamized Germans could have stood 
at the hea d of this Mohammedan Empire.

Similarly, Hitler was transcribed as saying: "Had Charles 
Martel not been victorious at Poitiers ... then we should in 
all probability have been converted to Mohammedanism, that 
cult which glorifies the heroism and which opens up the 
seventh Heaven to the bold warrior alone. Then the Germanic 
races would have conquered the world."

According to Speer, Hitler stated in private, "The 
Mohammedan religion too would have been much more compatible 
to us than Christianity. Why did it have to be Christianity 
with its meekness and flabbiness?"

Hitler's views on the Arab world

This "exchange" occurred when Hitler received Saudi Arabian 
ruler Ibn Saud's special envoy, Khalid al-Hud al-Gargani.

(excerpts)
Erwin Rommel was almost as popular as Hitler. Some Arabs 
used "Heil Rommel" as a common greeting in Arab countries.  
After France's defeat by Nazi Germany in 1940, some Arabs 
were chanting against the French and British around the 
streets of Damascus: "No more Monsieur, no more Mister, 
Allah's in Heaven and Hitler's on earth."  Posters in Arabic 
stating "In heaven God is your ruler, on earth Hitler" were 
frequently displayed in shops in the towns of Syria. 

 Sami al-Jundi, wrote:

in reading Nazi literature and books that were the

Damascus at that time was witness to the Arab 
inclination toward Nazism. Michel Aflaq a founder of the 
Ba'athist philosophy admired Hitler and the Nazis for 
standing up to Britain and America. This admiration 
would combine aspects of Nazism into Ba'athism."

The two most noted Arab politicians who actively 
collaborated with the Nazis were Grand Mufti of Jerusalem 
(al Quds) Haj Amin al-Husseini,  and the Iraqi prime 
minister Rashid Ali al-Gaylani.

Adolf Hitler met with Haj Amin al-Husseini on 28 November 
1941. The official German notes of that meeting contain 
numerous references to combatting Jews both inside and 
outside Europe. The following excerpts from that meeting are 
statements from Hit ler to the Mufti:

Germany stood for uncompromising war against the Jews. 
That naturally included active opposition to the Jewish 
national home in Palestine, which was nothing other than 
a center, in the form of a state, for the exercise of 
destructive influence by Jewish interests. ... This was 
the decisive struggle; on the political plane, it 
presented itself in the main as a conflict between 
Germany and England, but ideologically it was a battle 
between National Socialism and the Jews. It went without 
saying that Germany would furnish positive and practical 
aid to the Arabs involved in the same struggle...

Hitler had been much impressed  by a scrap of history he had 
learned from a delegation of distinguished Arabs." The 
delegation had speculated that the world would have become 
"Mohammedan" if the Berbers and Arabs had won the Battle of 
Tours in the 8th Century AD, and that the Germans would have 
become heirs to "a religion that believed in spreading the 
faith by the sword and in subjugating all nations to that 
faith. Such a creed was perfectly suited to the German 
temperament."  Speer then presents Hitler's claims on this 
subject:

Hitler said that the conquering Arabs, because of their 
racial inferiority, would in the long run have been unable 
to contend with the harsher climate of the country. They 
could not have kept down the more vigorous natives, so that 
ultimately not Arabs but Islamized Germans could have stood 
at the hea d of this Mohammedan Empire.

Similarly, Hitler was transcribed as saying: "Had Charles 
Martel not been victorious at Poitiers ... then we should in 
all probability have been converted to Mohammedanism, that 
cult which glorifies the heroism and which opens up the 
seventh Heaven to the bold warrior alone. Then the Germanic 
races would have conquered the world."

According to Speer, Hitler stated in private, "The 
Mohammedan religion too would have been much more compatible 
to us than Christianity. Why did it have to be Christianity 
with its meekness and flabbiness?"

Hitler's views on the Arab world

This "exchange" occurred when Hitler received Saudi Arabian 
ruler Ibn Saud's special envoy, Khalid al-Hud al-Gargani. 
Earlier in this meeting Hitler noted that one of the three 
reasons why Nazi Germany had warm sympathies for the Arabs 
was:

[FairfieldLife] Fwd: Fw: The Greatest Love Story, According To Muslims

2017-09-02 Thread wleed3 wle...@aol.com [FairfieldLife]

According to Muslims, this is the greatest love story of all time.

by Ayesha Ahmed    - 12 Apr, 2008

Having relationships with underage children is popular in sharia countries. 
Find out why?

ALLAH APPROVES OF IT

    65.4 "If you divorce your (child) wife before she reaches menstruation age 
her idda is three months".

According to this aya a muslim man can marry (and have sex with) even a one day 
old infant girl.  

ISLAMIC AUTHORITIES PROMOTE IT

There is no argument on this point among Islamic authorities whether shia or 
sunni. They all agree that a muslim man can have sex with baby girl.

This is what Imam Khomeini, the top shia authority says:

   "A muslim man can have sexual pleasure with a little girl   as young as a 
baby. But he should not penetrate her vaginally, however he can sodomize her".  
-(Tehriro vasyleh, fourth edition, Qom, Iran, 1990)

Here is what the the top sunni authority says (video on a Saudi website) about 
a one day old baby girl.

PROPHET LOVED LITTLE GIRLS

Prophet had special feelings for cute little baby girls.    In the riwaya of 
Yunus Ibn,Ishaq recorded that the apostle saw Ummu’l-Fadl hen she was baby 
crawling before him and said, 'If she grows up and I am still alive I will 
marry her.'  -(Ibn Ishaq: Suhayli, 2.79)

    Muhammad saw Um Habiba the daughter of Abbas while she  was fatim (age of 
nursing) and he said, "If she grows up while I am still alive, I will marry 
her."  -(Musnad  Ahmad, Number 25636)

Baby Aisha sitting on the lap of Prophet   [[islam-watch.org]]    

BABY AISHA

Our prophet fell in love with Baby Aisha when she was shown by Allah to him in 
his dreams when she still an infant.  
Narrated 'Aisha:  "Allah's Apostle said (to me), "You have been shown to me 
twice in (my) dreams.  A man was  carrying you in a silken cloth(as an infant) 
and said to me, 'This is your wife.' I uncovered it; and behold, it was you.  I 
said to myself, 'If this dream is from Allah, He will cause it to come 
true.'"  -(Bukhari , Volume 7,    Book 62, Number 15)

COURTSHIP WITH AISHA

Whenever Prophet visited Abu Bakr house he made Aisha sit in his lap and played 
with her.

PROPOSAL FOR MARRIAGE

When Ayesha reached the age of 6 Prophet decided to ask for her hand.

Abu Bakr: Rasulullah you must be joking. She is hardly six years old. And you 
are in your fifties.

Prophet: She is old enough for me.

Abu Bakr: Didn’t you marry off your own daughters when they were much older.?

Prophet: That was before aya 65.4 was revealed. Now a muslim can marry even a 
day old infant girl.

Abu: "But Rasulullah you called me your brother , how can you marry your foster 
niece".

Prophet:  "But you are not my real brother you are only 'a brother in Islam'."*

    Narrated 'Ursa:  "The Prophet asked Abu Bakr for 'Aisha's hand in 
marriage. Abu Bakr said "But I am your   brother." The Prophet said, "You are 
my brother in Allah's religion and His Book, but she (Aisha) is lawful  for me 
to marry."  -(Muslim Book 62, Number 18)

Abu: "But Rasulullah, last week you turned down Hamza's daughter (who was ugly 
and in her teens) . You said you cannot marry your foster niece**.

Narrated Ibn 'Abbas:  "It was said to the Prophet, "Won't you marry the 
daughter of Hamza?" He said, "She is my foster niece (brother's daughter). "

Prophet: "Allah had shown her to me in my dreams, that was Allah’s indication 
for me to marry her, I am helpless in this matter".  -(Bukharihari Volume 7, 
Book 62, Number 37)

ABU BAKR THROWS IN A MONKEY WRENCH

Abu was concerned about the welfare of her, a tiny tot sleeping with a horny 
and hefty old man who was given the libido of 30 men by Allah..

Abu: "I will let you marry her only on one condition, you will have to abstain 
from having sexual intercourse with the little one before she turns 9".

Prophet was disappointed but he had no choice.

Prophet:  "O.K. but I will not abstain from using other halal methods of 
pleasuring."

AISHA MADE A BEAUTIFUL BRIDE

PROPHETIC PLEASURING [[islam-watch.org]]

Thighing

    Narrated Aisha, "One night prophet entered upon me and   said: Uncover your 
thighs. I, therefore, uncovered both  of my thighs. Then he put his cheek and 
chest on my thighs."  (Ummul Mu'minin)  -(Sahih Dawood Book 1, Number 0270)

Fondling

    'Aisha said: "Whenever Allah's Apostle wanted to fondle me, he used to 
order me to put on an Izar and start fondling..  -(Bukhari,Volume 1, Book 6, 
Number 299)

    Narrated Aisha: "Allah's Apostle used to think that he had sexual 
intercourse while he actually had not" -(Bukhari, Volume 7, Book 71, Number 
660)

    Aisha said  "Whenever I found dried semen on the garments of the Messenger 
of Allah (may peace be upon him), I scraped it off with my nails.  -(Bukhari, 
Book  002, Number 0572)

AISHA TURNS NINE

Allah was very happy for the prophet when finally Aisha turned nine.. He sent

Especially for the artists among us!

From: "'Dome Announcements' domen...@mum.edu [FairfieldCafe]" 



This month's Full Moon Celebration features one of the most amazing tapes in 
the tape library.

Dr. Eike Hartmann makes a detailed presentation about Vedic Art. This is a 
detailed step-by-step explanation of how consciousness expresses itself in 
matter, connecting point and infinity. Dr. Hartmann shows a profound grasp of 
the literature of Vedic art and music, and connects us to the principles of art 
in terms of Maharishi's knowledge of the mechanics of creation in the gap.

This talk is full of brilliance, joy, and deep profound insights.

According to space.com 

 the maximum duration of totality for this eclipse will be 2 minutes and 40 
seconds.

Phalia told me that whatever you do during that time counts in years, i.e. for 
2 and a third (?) years to come afterwards.

I don't know of course if that is a fairy tale. So better do something 
auspicious and wholesome (but not eating!!) during that time like meditating or 
so, listening to Vedic chantings or so.




[FairfieldLife] Fwd: A Personal Note on the August 8 Election

2017-07-31 Thread Dick Mays dickm...@lisco.com [FairfieldLife]
I’ve already voted. Early voting began Friday at the Jefferson County Court 
House.

Forwarded from: Diane Rosenberg 

Dear Friends,

This is a personal note from me as a private citizen about this really 
important upcoming election on Tuesday, August 8.

I’m going to be voting for Phil Miller, and I urge you join me in voting for 
him, too

I had a long conversation with Phil on CAFO issues and a couple of additional 
discussions/emails as well. I also asked to speak with Travis Harris, but never 
heard back from his campaign.

Phil Miller understands and is sympathetic to the impacts of CAFOs. He's also 
making improving water quality one of his top priorities. That includes 
considering regulations if the voluntary approach isn’t doing the job.

Phil also supports:

• Local control: “I believe that locals know best and should be empowered to 
make the decisions they think are best for their community.” – Phil Miller

• Closing the LLC loophole that allows CAFO owners to skirt regulations:  
"Iowans should be good neighbors to each other and taking advantage of 
loopholes to benefit a few is not being a good neighbor. I would support 
legislation to close loopholes that allow LLCs to skirt the intent of the law.” 
– Phil Miller

• Strengthening the Master Matrix

• Increased funding for the Iowa Department of Natural Resources

And importantly, Phil has an open ear to organizations and people who care 
about the environment. 

Phil strikes me as a sincere, compassionate human being who will stand up for 
you and I and address the CAFO concerns that so many of us have. I’ve seen that 
compassion in action the times he has attended to my pets at the Vet Clinic. 
Without a doubt, we need more compassion up at the State House.

If you were as disheartened as I by what took place in Des Moines during the 
2017 legislative session, then please get out and vote on Tuesday August 8– or 
before - for Phil Miller. 

This is an important election and poll numbers are tight. We need EVERYONE to 
cast a vote if we want to retain the kind of representation that the late Curt 
Hanson stood for.

Thank you for considering this. Let’s get Phil Miller elected!

Best,

World’s Funniest Book Report







  
The students at a local college were assigned to read two books, "Titanic" and 
"My Life" by Bill Clinton, and to write book reports.





One student turned in the following book report; with the proposition that they 
were nearly identical stories!  His cool professor gave him an A+ for this 
report.





 





Titanic: Cost =  $29.99 
Clinton: Cost = $29.99






Titanic: Over 3 hours to read 
Clinton: Over 3 hours to read





 





Titanic: The story of Jack and Rose, their forbidden love, and subsequent 
catastrophe. 
Clinton: The story of Bill and Monica, their forbidden love, and subsequent 
catastrophe.






Titanic: Jack is a starving artist. 
Clinton: Bill is a bullshit artist.





 





Titanic: In one scene, Jack enjoys a good cigar. 
Clinton: Ditto for Bill





 





Titanic: During the ordeal, Rose’s dress gets ruined. 
Clinton: Ditto for Monica's






Titanic: Jack teaches Rose to spit.
Clinton: Let’s not go there.






Titanic: Rose gets to keep her jewelry. 
Clinton: Monica is forced to return her gifts.






Titanic: Rose remembers Jack for the rest of her life. 
Clinton: Clinton doesn’t remember anything.






Titanic: Rose goes down on a vessel full of seamen. 
Clinton: Monica.. Ooh, let’s not go there, either.






Titanic: Jack surrenders to an icy death. 
Clinton: Bill goes home to Hillary; basically the same thing.

[FairfieldLife] Fwd: NW Campus Development High Return Opportunity I am putting some money into

2017-07-13 Thread Dick Mays dickm...@lisco.com [FairfieldLife]
This just in from Stephen Harper

In case you are looking for an attractive return and at the same time helping 
create housing for meditators to grow our community, I would like to let you 
know that there is currently an opportunity to receive up to 12%/yr. ROI on a 3 
or 4 yr. loan to allow refurbishment of cottages and suites on the Ideal Life 
Campus. 

There are about 75 units that need to be refurbished at a cost of about $3,500 
each. About 25 have been renovated and they are completely full and being 
rented as fast as they can be refurbished. And there is current demand for 
about 20 of these. People are currently being turned away.

Therefore Bryan Lee, the manager of the program is seeking loans in increments 
of $3,500 to immediately renovate 20 units, (up to $70,000) and he is willing 
to pay up to 12%/yr. interest rate on a monthly basis or a rate that people are 
willing to loan to him for this purpose.

I have made a couple of loans to Bryan for renovating some of the first units 
already and so far the repayment is right on schedule.

If you don’t know Bryan, I would describe him as very trustworthy and 
professional. Bryan is the former National Leader of New Zealand and a genuine 
simple straightforward Kiwi who has the integrity for which the people of NZ 
famous. The movement per se is not the borrower and only indirectly involved in 
that they own the properties, but it is essentially a personal loan to Bryan..

If you feel inclined to help Bryan and the meditators who are moving to 
Fairfield and looking for good inexpensive Vaastu housing, please contact him 
directly. I am receiving no commission or benefit from making this opportunity 
known. So feel free to pass the information on.

Thank you.
JGD

Two Presidents and their Marine Attendants

By Russ Vaughn


On Saturday as the Commander-in-Chief was boarding Marine One, rotor 
turbulence blew off the headgear of an attending Marine. President Trump 
stooped, grabbed the hat and replaced it on the stunned young Marine’s 
head, patting the embarrassed, young serviceman on the arm. The hat 
immediately blew off again and Trump went after it a second time while the 
Marine correctly maintained his post standing rigidly at attention. Trump 
this time handed off the hat to the Air Force colonel attending him and 
boarded the helicopter:


Contrast that with this:
