[FairfieldLife] 'Soul Transitions- August 2009'
Soul Transitions Vibe Report for August 2009 Nancy Leilah Ward The Poetry of My Soul My prayer is to express the poetry of my soul. To live a deeper life. More than taking care of business, the surface of things but to dive deep into the mystery to awaken visions within. To travel on the beam of light that shines through the center of my being. We each have something drawing us forward dancing on points of light as our feet come down. If it made a sound, it would be like bells or ice flowing on top of a river. My soul calls out for more, more, more. I know there is more than this. My prayer is to live my life like a prayer. Every breath sacred. Tapping into the infinite depth within. Deeper than the stars. Deep as the Universe. The deeper I travel within, the further out I go. Moving through exploding fractals of light colored by emotion in motion. My life is a prayer. My actions consciously honor the mystery; that which is beyond words As I chop wood, carry water. This to all… May our breath be blessed with love. All this and more. Dancing on diamond lights our footsteps light our path, disappear behind us. Onward. This is how I’ve been feeling lately. What’s going on? A potent download of cosmic energy on July 21-22, as well as three eclipses have been affecting us all. Opening ourselves to new energy brings up big change at the cellular, at the atomic, at the sub-atomic levels. Many of us have been feeling very strange. For the last week, I have been having moments of fever and achiness and sometimes digestive problems on and off. I’ll wake up with a fever and then an hour or so later I’ll feel absolutely fine, with my usual energy. One day will go by and I’ll be fine, then the fever will show up again for an hour or so, or I’ll have to lie down and rest because of feeling achy. Of course my mind goes to thoughts of Lyme’s disease, West Nile virus or swine flu, but I keep hearing “ascension symptom” from the wise voice within. Some of the symptoms I’ve been hearing about from others are fever, nausea, aching backs, aching arms and joints, feeling disoriented and lightheaded, feelings of inertia, panic, deep grief and sleeplessness. Many people are feeling like they no longer know what to do with their lives – they know that things are changing and they don’t know exactly what to do but that they want to do something different. Others, after feeling this way for the past year, have found their paths and are moving forward with conviction and commitment. This includes people who a few months ago felt completely lost and unsure of what they wanted to do. Everyone is at their own place in Divine timing of the evolutionary process. We are being triggered by energy surges and sometimes this feels like we’re being pulled out of our bodies. Many of One Indeed you are in for a ride, dear ones. As you ride the waves of change, trust your instincts. Trust your guidance, trust your “gut.” Trust in your ability to discern what is your highest path and purpose. And when you don’t know, do nothing. Many are diving deep into their beings to experience the heart of their soul. We see relationships changing as people can no longer hide from the truth in themselves. This can create much confusion and upset, but know that the path within is paved with love. Dear ones you are being called to a deeper experience of yourself as you integrate the energies and open to receive your soul. You will find you cannot do what doesn’t resonate with your heart. This is causing much upset and change among many people. We wish for you to know with the deepest love that everything is going to be OK. Listen to your hearts. Spend time in nature. Retreat to gain clarity. Allow the emotions to flow through you, hide nothing from yourselves. For it is with the deepest expression of your truth that you will find freedom and clarity. Much is changing and shifting. Bring in the energies of love. Be your deepest authenticity - you are being called to greater levels of awareness. Many are feeling the need for a deeper connection with Source. You are Source The very Universe exists within you and without you. You are truly one with everything. To maintain your connection in the 3rd dimension you experience feelings of separation and defined boundaries. Somewhere deep within is a seed of knowing that you are greater than your perceptions and that you are vast. If you sit within this possibility and allow yourselves to expand, you will touch the stars. The true and total knowledge and experience of this would be too much for you to handle so it is given to you in small doses… glimpses of the vastness of your being. We feel you wishing to remember, wishing for a deeper experience and these experiences can be found through creative processes, through interactions with one another and through the stillness within. Those of you who are feeling the call to greater awareness have been the forerunners and the ones holding the energy for others.

Robert, Granted there is plenty of wrong information and hysteria about health care on the internet, no doubt hyped by the insurance industry and the Republican party. Their biggest fear is a health care bill with a public option. Here's the problem, a few key Democrats don't want the public option either. Neither of them want a public option. The difference is that the Republicans can outright oppose it and the Democrats have to PRETEND they favor it. The insurance industry lines the pockets of Republicans AND Democrats. It's one big Kabuki dance. Recently, Obama told leftwing activists like Firedoglake and Media Matters to back off pushing for the public option. WTF? http://www.progressive.org/wx080509.html Max Baucus, Democrat, head of the Senate Finance Committee, took single-payer off the table at the beginning of discussions. Baucus takes more money from insurance lobbyists than anyone in the Senate. http://www.progressive.org/wx080509.html The sticking point between John Q. Public and the DEMOCRATS is the public option. The majority of the people want a public option. The poll which was just released by the Employee Benefit Research Institute, a D.C. policy think tank finds that a majority (53%) strongly back the availability of a public plan, while another 30% somewhat support it. That's a total of 83% in favor of a public plan a staggeringly large majority. http://tinyurl.com/knnsgs Have you noticed the number of distractions on T.V. that allows very minimal discussion or promotion of the idea that the MAJORITY of the public wants a public option? No. Media attention has been on the paranoia of the right, the birthers, Palin, Michael Jackson and a beer with the president instead of health care. ANYTHING except focus on the fact that Obama and the Democrats ALREADY HAVE the support they need to get a public option. Obama and the Democrats DON'T NEED TO COMPROMISE. Network TV represents corporate media who has no interest in the will of the people, it doesn't increase the bottom line. The public option threatens the bottom line. Corporatism is a greedy behemoth that snarls at the public option and the corporate media enables it. Media protection of corporate interests was true during GW Bush and it is true now. NOTHING has changed. The more conflict we see on TV between the left and the right about health care the more likely it is that we will not see of a public option. Both sides of the aisle and their insurance industry enablers want to bury it. Public Option RIP. I'm no fan of Sen. Cornyn but he has a valid reason to ask the White House: How do you intend to use the names, email addresses, IP addresses, and identities of citizens who are reported to have engaged in fishy speech? How do you intend to notify citizens who have been reported for fishy speech? http://briefingroom.thehill.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/cornynletter.pdf There isn't any reason for Obama to have private email addresses to counter disinformation. Homeland Security and the FBI can easily find out whats happening on the internet and Axelrod knows exactly how to counter as well as spread disinformation. Citizen ratting on each only creates a climate of paranoia, inflames the opposition, suppresses free speech and ensures the necessity of a compromise on health care which will nix the public option.

For their annual conference poster, they took an old photo of cool-dude college freshman Obama puffing away -- on a regular cigarette, mind you -- and tweaked it just ever so slightly to fit their message: Yes We Cannabis.

It's fairly predictable that whenever progressives are about to win one that the Republicunts like Dixon, Willytex, and Shemp freak out. They're *easy* to prog- ram; all you have to do is push their fear button and they do as they've been told to do and repeat what they've been told to repeat. The only thing strange in this scenario is is that these long-term TMers still *have* so much fear in them that they can be manipulated this easily. But the fascinating one lately is Raunchydog, a sup- posed liberal who has been manipulated into believing and repeating *exactly the same propaganda* by appeal- ing not to her sense of fear but to her attachment to being a victim and to her hatred of Obama -- a hatred she developed for no reason than that he proved that the woman Raunchy had a crush on wasn't qualified to be president. Being manipulated by those who prey on your fear is almost normal these days in America, but being manipulated by those who prey on your insane desire for *revenge*? That would be scary if the person being manipulated were ignorant trailer trash. But when the person being manipulated is a 30-year TMer *acting* like ignorant trailer trash? *Really* scary.

So if there is going to be a mob, as you say, that shows up at this event, why would it be described as right wing necessarily? Democrats and left-wingers may very well be part of that 45% and I suspect that they are and, indeed, make up a hefty part of it. No one should disrupt public meetings outside the bounds of acceptable modes of protest. But people who are counter to a certain position have every right to organise and show up at these things. I personally don't like it when that happens and would prefer that it stays civil but it is, after all, a town hall meeting. What bugs me is Bill Maher's show where there IS a mob mentality in his studio audience which openly snickers, cat-calls, and drowns out right-of-center voices on his show. I would much prefer that Maher keep the exact same format he has but do it WITHOUT a studio audience.

[FairfieldLife] THE SPIRITUAL BIBLE
A Spiritual Journey of Self-Discovery beyond Eastern Fundamentalism and Western Materialism “Alas! The god in man remains a child waiting to mature. Shall man grow into a god, or is he doomed in his humanity?” This question, posed in the prologue of Abir Taha’s inspirational new philosophical novel, The Epic of Arya: In Search of the Sacred Light (www.the-epic-of-arya.com.), is central to the sacred mission of its main character, Arya, who seeks to find the god within. The Epic of Aryais a spiritual bible, an allegorical novel that follows its narrator on a mesmerizing journey of self-discovery that will heal, awaken and transform readers with its messages on love, truth and spirituality. Arya has a secret longing and a silent pain: half-woman, half-goddess, she is torn between Love and Truth, between passion and duty. When she wakes up from her eternal sleep into a new world that is surrounded by darkness and confusion, she wonders, “Why has the gloomy veil of Maya, goddess of illusion, covered the radiant face of Gaia our Earth? Where and why has the sun disappeared? Why is God dead?” But what she will discover is that the world has descended into ignorance, wearing the mask of “faith” in the East, when it is truly obscurantist fundamentalism, and the mask of “reason” in the West, which disguises atheist materialism. In exasperated despair, Arya resolves to roam the Earth in search of the lost sacred light that would end humanity’s eternal night. She travels from East to West in search of Hyperborea, otherwise known as Shambhala, the “land beyond the North wind,” where legend has it that the sun never sets and where gods first existed on the earth and lived among men by speaking through them. On her journey, Arya meets various characters that serve as mediators to the discovery of her own identity and divinity, including a wise old man from the East, an old woman from the North, a knight with whom Arya falls in love, the King of the World, and a prophet who is Arya’s soul-mate and the invisible, constant presence which guides her. As Taha explains, these characters are aspects of Arya’s own soul and the souls of all people. “Life is first and foremost an inner journey of self-discovery,” writes Taha. “All the people we meet on our path are archetypes, symbols, states of mind, milestones that lead us back to our own inner journey on the path of awakening.” Full of practical wisdom, poetic prose and spirituality steeped in philosophy, The Epic of Arya conveys a universal message of unity, hope and salvation in a world torn apart by the clash of civilizations and religions, offering a spiritual alternative.

[FairfieldLife] Re: Ayahuasca Experience
Apparently, it induces psychedelic visions. In mythological terms, the person who takes it communes with the gods, or beings from another world. Nonetheless, one should be wary in using any types of drugs. In jyotish, drugs can be represented by Rahu, a malefic planet that induces heightened experiences, or other compulsive behaviours. Believe or not, a computer scientist is using the effects of ayahuasca as a model to build quantum computers.

What bugs me is Bill Maher's show where there IS a mob mentality in his studio audience which openly snickers, cat-calls, and drowns out right-of-center voices on his show. I would much prefer that Maher keep the exact same format he has but do it WITHOUT a studio audience.

[FairfieldLife] Birther movement hatched by Left-Wing: Coulter
Several days ago I posited a question here whether the birther movement was started by those on the left and Democrats, not by Republicans as had been popularaly reported. Judy responded that, no, it was a radical right-wing group. Just co-incidentally, Ann Coulter's column that came out yesterday touches on this question and, according to her (see 3rd paragraph below), the birthers were indeed initiated by the left-wing. OBAMA BIRTH CERTIFICATE SPOTTED IN BOGUS MOON LANDING FOOTAGE August 5, 2009 Tardy though they are, we welcome MSNBC to finally joining every major conservative news outlet -- including Fox News, The American Spectator, Human Events, National Review and Sweetness Light -- in discrediting the idea that President Obama wasn't born in this country and, therefore, is ineligible to be president. Now the big question: Was Joe Biden born on this planet? Inasmuch as the birther movement was hatched in the station wagon of MSNBC's favorite left-wing fantasist, Larry Johnson, maybe the mainstream media can stop acting as if it's a creation of the Republican National Committee. Which party contains 99 percent of the people who believe (or believed): -- O.J. is innocent; -- Bush shirked his National Guard duty; -- Sarah Palin's infant child, Trig, was actually the child of her daughter; -- Justice Antonin Scalia threw the 2000 election to Bush so that his son could get a legal job with the Labor Department; -- The spectacularly guilty Mumia Abu-Jamal was framed; -- The Diebold Corp. secretly stole thousands of Kerry votes in 2004; -- Duke lacrosse players gang-raped a stripper; -- Bill Clinton did not have sex with that woman; -- Heterosexuals are just as likely to contract AIDS as gays; -- John Edwards didn't have an affair with Rielle Hunter; -- John Edwards' campaign aide Andrew Young is the father of Rielle Hunter's child. And as has been recently noted, a 2007 Rasmussen poll showed that 35 percent of Democrats believe Bush knew about the 9/11 attacks in advance, while 26 percent aren't sure ... Holy mackerel. Another favorite MSNBC guest, Janeane Garofalo, believes Enron's Ken Lay faked his own death. It's weird that Keith Olbermann didn't ask her about that when she was on his show a couple of months ago, given his sudden interest in stamping out conspiracy theories. Also trying to revive his failing TV show, MSNBC'S Chris Matthews has been denouncing the birthers on Hardball nightly and demanding that every elected Republican who appears on his show do the same. How many times has Matthews forced Democratic officeholders to denounce Al Sharpton for the Tawana Brawley hoax? Or for that matter, how many times has he forced Sharpton -- a frequent guest on his show -- to admit the case was a fraud? Sharpton has veto power over all Democratic presidential candidates. Even Al Gore, a former vice president of the United States, was required to kiss Sharpton's ring. If there ever comes a time when Republican presidential candidates have to get the blessing of the head of the birther movement to run, I'll say: I'm wrong -- Republicans do have as many conspiracy nuts as the Democrats. Not content with merely humoring their nuts, Democratic officeholders promote conspiracy theories themselves. In 2003, Democratic presidential candidate and future Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean approvingly cited the left-wing lunacy that Saudi Arabia had warned Bush in advance about the 9/11 attacks. He promised a caller to National Public Radio that, if elected, he would investigate. In the fall of 2004, Clinton's Secretary of State Madeleine Albright said she believed Bush was holding Osama bin Laden and planned to release him just before the election. (She later claimed she was joking -- a surprise to all three witnesses who heard her say it.) Sen. Barbara Boxer officially objected to the certification of Ohio's votes in the 2004 election -- on the Senate floor -- and demanded an investigation into the Diebold stole Kerry votes conspiracy theory. And, of course, a Democratic House and Senate actually used official government proceedings to investigate the original nut-job conspiracy theory, the October Surprise, maintaining that Reagan struck a secret deal with the Iranians not to release the hostages until after the 1980 election. Now, the only October surprise will come under ObamaCare: Order an MRI in April and get it by ... October -- surprise! Rosie O'Donnell -- who has headlined many a Democratic fundraiser -- is a prominent 9/11 truther. She believes the World Trade Center was blown up with explosives, not taken down by terrorists in airplanes. Most shockingly, the Democrats have a hand-in-glove relationship with Michael Moore, crackpot documentarian, whose Fahrenheit 9/11 is chock-a-block with demented conspiracy theories, including: -- the

A lot of this was the policies of the Bush administration. Furthermore, as the GOP increased its focus on cultural issues, it also caused a widening education gap.

[FairfieldLife] Corporate Group Takes Credit For Organizing Town Hall Disruptions
Anti-Reform Group Takes Credit For Helping Gin Up Town Hall Rallies http://theplumline.whorunsgov.com/health-care/anti-reform-group-takes-c\ redit-for-helping-gin-up-town-hall-rallies/ Conservatives for Patients' Rights, the operation that's running a national campaign against a public health care option, is now publicly taking credit for helping gin up the sometimes-rowdy outbursts targeting House Dems at town hall meetings around the country, raising questions about their spontaneity. CPR is the group headed by controversial former hospitals exec Rick Scott that's spending millions on ads attacking reform in all sorts of lurid ways, a campaign that's being handled http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/05/10/AR20090\ 51002243.html?hpid=topnews by the same P.R. mavens behind the Swift Boat Vets. In response to my questions, a spokesman for the group confirmed that it has undertaken a concerted effort to get people out to the town hall meetings to protest reform. The spokesperson, Brian Burgess, confirmed that CPR is emailing out town hall alert flyers, and schedules of town hall meetings, to its mailing list. These efforts combined with CPR's effort to enlist Tea Party-ers, as reported yesterday http://tpmdc.talkingpointsmemo.com/2009/08/inside-the-tea-partiers-anti\ -health-care-organizing-campaign.php by TPM provide a glimpse into the ways anti-reform groups are trying to create a sense of public momentum in their favor. CPR spokesman Burgess confirmed that the group had set up a list serv designed to reach out to third party groups involved in the health care fight, including the Tea Party activists. And in a statement emailed to me, Scott, who was ousted http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/05/10/AR20090\ 51002243.html?hpid=topnews as a health-care exec amid a 1990s fraud probe, took credit for the town hall showings. We have invested a lot of time, energy and resources into educating Americans over the past several months about the dangers of government-run health care and I think we're seeing some of the fruits of that campaign, Scott said, though he claimed outrage was spontaneous. Similarly, America's Health Insurance Plans, or AHIP, the insurance industry group, has stationed employees http://online.wsj.com/article/SB124891353497192109.html in 30 states to track local town hall events. The question is whether these uprisings are actually helpful to the anti-reform cause, or whether their raucus agitprop will work againt them. Dems have blasted out to reporters http://www.politico.com/blogs/bensmith/0809/The_danger_in_the_rights_an\ ger.html?showall examples of protestors harrassing House Dems. The more you dig the more you learn that this is a carefully orchestrated effort by special interest lobbyists and the Republican Party, who are using fringe elements on the right to protect insurance company profits and defeat health care reform, said House Dem leadership aide Doug Thornell. The anger at these events looks very similar to what we saw at McCain/Palin rallies in the fall. http://snipurl.com/owwh8 [theplumline_whorunsgov_com]

Those individuals that are in good health will find that the cost of insurance way too high for the perceived benefit, and some will remove themselves from the risk pool. People should be free to opt out of any health care system. But, it is a fact that a government health care system would have to be compulsory.

Apparently lots of people who can't afford a new car are getting one now, so, I wonder how many of those car loans will be in default six months from now. How is that going to help the economy? But it's debatable if getting a new car than has better gas milage by 3 MPG will actually reduce any greenhouse gasses. Somebody is going to have to pay for the clunkers, and their destruction, sooner or later - there's no free lunch, no matter how much you hate the Right Wing.

[FairfieldLife] For Shemp: Climate Change: Why It's Even Worse Than We Feared
Hopefully to counterbalance some of the crap with which you choose to fill your head: CLIMATE-CHANGE CALCULUS WHY IT'S EVEN WORSE THAN WE FEARED By Sharon Begley Newsweek August 3rd Issue, 2009 http://www.newsweek.com/id/208164 Among the phrases you really, really do not want to hear from climate scientists are: that really shocked us, we had no idea how bad it was, and reality is well ahead of the climate models. Yet in speaking to researchers who focus on the Arctic, you hear comments like these so regularly they begin to sound like the thumping refrain from Jaws: annoying harbingers of something that you really, really wish would go away. Let me deconstruct the phrases above. The shock came when the International Polar Year, a global consortium studying the Arctic, froze a small vessel into the sea ice off eastern Siberia in September 2006. Norwegian explorer Fridtjof Nansen had done the same thing a century before, and his Fram, carried by the drifting ice, emerged off eastern Greenland 34 months later. IPY scientists thought their Tara would take 24 to 36 months. But it reached Greenland in just 14 months, stark evidence that the sea ice found a more open, ice-free, and thus faster path westward thanks to Arctic melting. The loss of Arctic sea ice is well ahead of what the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change forecast, largely because emissions of carbon dioxide have topped what the panel -- which foolishly expected nations to care enough about global warming to do something about it -- projected. The models just aren't keeping up with the reality of CO2 emissions, says the IPY's David Carlson. Although policymakers hoped climate models would prove to be alarmist, the opposite is true, particularly in the Arctic. The IPCC may also have been too cautious on Greenland, assuming that the melting of its glaciers would contribute little to sea-level rise. Some studies found that Greenland's glacial streams were surging and surface ice was morphing into liquid lakes, but others made a strong case that those surges and melts were aberrations, not long-term trends. It seemed to be a standoff. More reliable data, however, such as satellite measurements of Greenland's mass, show that it is losing about 52 cubic miles per year and that the melting is accelerating. So while the IPCC projected that sea level would rise 16 inches this century, now a more likely figure is one meter [39 inches] at the least, says Carlson. Chest high instead of knee high, with half to two thirds of that due to Greenland. Hence the no idea how bad it was. The frozen north had another surprise in store. Scientists have long known that permafrost, if it melted, would release carbon, exacerbating global warming, which would melt more permafrost, which would add more to global warming, on and on in a feedback loop. But estimates of how much carbon is locked into Arctic permafrost were, it turns out, woefully off. It's about three times as much as was thought, about 1.6 trillion metric tons, which has surprised a lot of people, says Edward Schuur of the University of Florida. It means the potential for positive feedbacks is greatly increased. That 1.6 trillion tons is about twice the amount now in the atmosphere. And Schuur's measurements of how quickly CO2 can come out of permafrost, reported in May, were also a surprise: 1 billion to 2 billion tons per year. Cars and light trucks in the U.S. emit about 300 million tons per year. In an insightful observation in The Guardian this month, Jim Watson of the University of Sussex wrote that a new breed of climate sceptic is becoming more common: someone who doubts not the science but the policy response. Given the pathetic (non)action on global warming at the G8 summit, and the fact that the energy/climate bill passed by the House of Representatives is so full of holes and escape hatches that it has barely a prayer of averting dangerous climate change, skepticism that the world will get its act together seems appropriate. For instance, the G8, led by Europe, has vowed to take steps to keep global warming below 2 degrees Celsius by reducing CO2 emissions. We're now at 0.8 degree. But the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere is already enough to raise the mercury 2 degrees. The only reason it hasn't is that the atmosphere is full of crap (dust and aerosols that contribute to asthma, emphysema, and other diseases) that acts as a global coolant. As that pollution is reduced for health reasons, we're going to blast right through 2 degrees, which is enough to ex-acerbate droughts and storms, wreak havoc on agriculture, and produce a planet warmer than it's been in millions of years. The 2-degree promise is a mirage. The test of whether the nations of the world care enough to act will come in December, when 192 countries meet in Copenhagen to hammer out a climate treaty. Carlson vows that IPY will finish its Arctic assessment in time for the meeting, and one conclusion is

Eastern Daylight Time Subj: A few more reasons why I voted No (http://hatch.rootshq.com/administrator/components/com_civicrm/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=139qid=189533) William -- This morning, before the confirmation vote on Judge Sotomayor, I addressed a few more reasons why I voted No on her nomination. Short version of my speech: Judge Sotomayor's record simply creates too many conflicts with principles about the judiciary in which I deeply believe. I hope that on the Supreme Court, Judge Sotomayor will take an objective, modest, and restrained approach to interpreting and applying written law. I hope that she actively defends her impartiality against subjective influences such as personal sympathies and prejudices. And I hope that she sees the Constitution, both its words and its meaning, as something that she must follow rather than something she can change. Because the record does not convince me that Judge Sotomayor holds those views today, I could not her support appointment to the Supreme Court. My full speech on the Senate floor is pasted below. I'd appreciate it if you would share your thoughts by replying to this email. Sincerely, Senator Orrin Hatch P.S. Take a moment to read my comments and see how times have changed since the Democrats unfairly filibustered Miguel Estrada. Senators and grassroots groups, including Hispanic organizations, who today say that a good resume, rich life story, and ethnic heritage make a compelling confirmation case opposed even holding a vote for Mr. Estrada. Statement of Sen. Orrin G. Hatch Before the United States Senate Regarding the nomination of Sonia Sotomayor to be Associate Justice of the Supreme Court August 6, 2009 On Tuesday, I explained some of the reasons why I cannot support the nomination of Judge Sonia Sotomayor to replace Justice David Souter and I will mention a few others today. Her record simply creates too many conflicts with principles about the judiciary in which I deeply believe. I wish President Obama had chosen a Hispanic nominee whom all Senators could support. During the debate this week, many of my Democratic friends have spent time reading Judge Sotomayor's resume rather than reviewing her record. Nearly every speaker on the other side, for example, has repeated the talking point that she has more federal judicial experience than any Supreme Court no minee in a century. I know that she does, and I respect her for it. But Justice Samuel Alito had only one less year of federal judicial experience, and actually had five more years on the U.S. Court of Appeals, when he was nominated. He too had been a prosecutor, and he too had received a unanimous well-qualified rating from the ABA. Yet 19 current Democratic Senators voted to filibuster his nomination, and 35 voted against confirmation. Other Senators emphasize the importance of appointing someone with Judge Sotomayor's inspiring life story and ethnic heritage. Once again, I do not disagree. Yet she is being treated with far more dignity and respect than was Miguel Estrada, a highly qualified Hispanic nominee with an inspiring life story. The Senate, for example, will today actually vote on Judge Sotomayor's nomination. In 2003, for the first time in American history, this body was prevented from voting at all on the Estrada nomination, even though he had majority support. Senators and grassroots groups, including Hispanic organizations, who today say that a good resume, rich life story, and ethnic heritage make a compelling confirmation case for Judge Sotomayor opposed even holding an up-or-down vote for Mr. Estrada. The treatment of Miguel Estrada was unfair and disgraceful toward the nominee and damaging to the traditions and practice of this body. My Democratic colleagues want people to believe that the concerns about the Sotomayor nomination are limited to one speech and one case. Some of them have said as much. At the same time, they say that our review should be limited to only certain parts of the nominee's record. As I have done with past nominees, however, I examined Judge Sotomayor's entire record for insight into her judicial philosophy. In addition to the controversial speeches that I discussed on Tuesday, Judge Sotomayor gave a speech at Suffolk University Law School which was later published in that school's law review. She embraced the idea that the law is indefinite, impermanent, and experimental. She rejected what she called the public myth that law can be certain and stable. She said that judges may, in their decisions, develop novel approaches and legal frameworks that push the law in new directions.

[FairfieldLife] Reduce CO2? Treason against the biosphere!
Humans and Their CO2 Save the Planet! Posted By Frank J. Tipler On August 5, 2009 @ 6:59 am In . Column2 07, . Positioning, Legal, Science, Science Technology, US News | 89 Comments As the Senate considers the fate of the cap-and-trade bill, we should consider what it means for more carbon dioxide to be added to the atmosphere, something the bill intends to prevent. Carbon dioxide is first and foremost a plant food. In fact, plants take carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and use the energy from sunlight to combine the CO2 with water to yield glucose, the simplest sugar molecule. Carbon dioxide is also the source of all organic this word just means contains carbon molecules synthesized by plants. Without carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, there would be no organic molecules synthesized by plants. The less carbon dioxide there is in the atmosphere, the fewer organic molecules synthesized by plants. All animals depend on plants to synthesize essential organic molecules. Without the organic molecules synthesized by plants, the animal world could not exist. Without plants, there would be no biosphere. Several million years ago, a disaster struck the terrestrial biosphere: there was a drastic reduction in the percentage of CO2 in the atmosphere. The flowering plants evolved to be most efficient when the percentage of CO2 in the atmosphere was about 1,000 parts per million. But the percentage had dropped to a mere 200 parts per million. Plants tried to adapt by evolving a new, more efficient way of using the little remaining CO2. The new mechanism, the C4 pathway, appeared in grasses, including corn and wheat, which enabled these plants to expand into the plains. If the carbon dioxide percentage had stayed low or worse, had decreased further the entire biosphere would have been endangered. Fortunately for the plants and the rest of the biosphere depending on them, a wonderful thing happened about 150,000 years ago: a new animal species, Homo sapiens, evolved. This creature was endowed with a huge brain, enabling it to invent a way to help the plants with their CO2 problem. Gigantic amounts of carbon had been deposited deep underground in the form of coal, oil, and natural gas. Not only were these reservoirs of carbon locked away in rock, but they were in forms of carbon that the plants could not use. These wonderful humans, however, worked hard to help the plants. Not only did the humans dig the coal, oil, and natural gas, bringing it to the surface, but they converted these raw materials into the only form of carbon that plants could use: carbon dioxide. Due to the diligent plant-saving efforts of the humans, the CO2 atmospheric percentage is now at nearly 390 parts per million. Were humans to continue in their biosphere-rescuing efforts at the present rate, the CO2 level will be returned to normal in a mere few hundred years. The cap-and-trade bill is designed to stop this effort to save the biosphere. This is a profoundly evil act. In the words of the Nobel Prize winning economist Paul Krugman, anyone who supports the bill, or any measure aimed at reducing the increase of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, is guilty of treason against the planet! Those who want to reduce the use of fossil fuels are the mortal enemies of the biosphere. They must be stopped at all costs! Write your senator at once! The astute reader will have noted that Krugman actually accused those who opposed the cap-and-trade bill of treason against the planet. What I have done is use well-known science to show that, from the biosphere's point of view, it is the cap-and-trade bill that is treasonable. Remarkably, Krugman assumes that the climatic conditions of a mere century or so ago are the natural ones that must not be changed. A very anthropomorphic point of view is being used to denounce humanity. An ultraconservative reactionary political position is being called progressive. http://pajamasmedia.com/blog/humans-and-their-co2-save-the-planet/?print=1 .
