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

Sir Mark, Looks like the tmo may have hired a consultant to lobby the City Counsil with regards to the re-zoning issues. It appears the City wants to re-zone as agricultural land. And, the tmo which failed to develop the 300 acres with a whirled peas palace, and tehy await a buyer. Doesn't look the parcel will sell anytime soon due primarily to the re-zoning issues, as there isn't a master plan in place now. See related articles.. THE COLONY The Maharishi Global Development Fund is asking the city to delay rezoning about 300 acres that the fund owns along State Highway 121 so the company can find a buyer. The city will consider the requested six-month delay next month but is eager to see the land developed. Officials want to change the zoning back to its original agricultural designation because no development has occurred there for several years. It's part of the city's plan to turn the stretch of Highway 121 into an entertainment and recreation district by attracting development. The city has adopted a master plan to realize that vision, and one of the first steps is to rezone the land accordingly. http://tinyurl.com/eugpa Steve Brown: Trump buzz probably all talk He brought big rumors and earned big bucks in Dallas appearance 08:09 AM CST on Friday, March 3, 2006 ..And don't forget the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi's plan to build a 300- acre heaven on earth in The Colony... http://tinyurl.com/jct2y To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'

Here is what that URL actually says. Note that it says explicitly that: At the center of the black hole lies a singularity, that is, a region where the current laws of physics break down because the circumstances are so extreme. In fact, we do not really know what the inside of a black hole is like. Describing the characteristics of the structure of a black hole still remains one of the challenges of modern relativistic astrophysics. The Schwarzschild radius is the radius at which the escape velocity equals the speed of light. The surface of the sphere of radius equal to the Schwarzschild radius is called the event horizon. We on the outside of the black hole cannot learn anything about any event taking place within the event horizon, and thus we can think of it as the surface of the black hole. At the center of the black hole lies a singularity, that is, a region where the current laws of physics break down because the circumstances are so extreme. Note that the Schwarschild radius scales with the mass of the black hole. The Schwarzschild radius of a 1 solar mass black hole is 3 x 105 cm. According to Roger Penrose's Principle of Cosmic Censorship, the fact that the laws of physics break down inside the event horizon has no impact on the physics outside the black hole (so we needn't worry about the failure of our current physics too much!?). though of course, by definition, you can't prove such a thing, either way...

He (or at least his lawyer) has been not just explicit but insistent that he takes all the responsibility himself. I agree that he has stayed out of the spotlight, however regarding taking personal responsibility, what I have heard from him was that he wrote these IMs because: 1) He is gay, 2)He is an alcoholic 3)He was abused by a priest when younger, which all sound like excuses to me. In all seriousness, maybe this is what passes for taking responsibility among our public officials these days.

Jai Guru Dev, Maharisihi Mahesh Yogi This is a tough situation which only complete Self Realization within the ranks of the faithful will solve. Years ago I remember hearing about the rules and regulations getting tighter to maintain the purity of what Maharishi was teaching. I believe if this hadn't been done, the TMO would've completely dissolved long ago. Unfortunately, people will do anything for enlightenment and the element in the TMO that has been encouraged are those who feel it necessary to lord ocntrol over others, and enforce petty authority trips. So it has to be this way for now, in order to sustain the Movement at all. Hopefully the ice will melt at some point and things can relax a little in the future.

That's part and parcel of the entire TMO dogma. I assume you are making that assessment based on personal experience and direct observation. Since you left the TMO in the latter 70's as did I, I assume you are talking about 67-78 or so. For that period, I have no idea what planet you were on, but it was not Planet SIMS or the Maharisahiville I knew. Who was manifesting this entire TMO dogma in that period, leaders who passed judgement on those they consider beneath themselves? Maharish in that period? Jerry Jarvis? Joe Clarke? Stan Crowe, Bill Witherspoon, Charlie Donahue? Bob Brant, Rick Nelson, Rob Mccruchen? Casey Coleman? Louis Dyson? Bille Clayon? Johnny Gray? Keith Wallace?, Sy Migdal?, David Orme-Johnson? Larry Domash? Josie Faurso? The M groups === Purusha folks? By 1977, the leaders in the US were there teams of governors back from the six-month courses teaching the sidha courses. Them? Even Bevan.

A few of all of these folks these characters, some had some odd, though perhaps endearing quirks, but stuck-up, superior, dismissive, judgemental?

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

[FairfieldLife] Re: Christians obsession with death
I don't think the Christian focus is on death so much as on what that suffering and death accomplished. To put it in eastern terms, Christ took on the karma of his followers and dissolved it for all time. This act of absolution required great suffering and the ultimate sacrifice to pay the price. For Maharishi to blithely say that Jesus didn't suffer seems a bit odd considering he tells the tale of Guru Dev suffering from disease as penance for the world's karma. The idea that one's guru can suffer to take on the karma of disciples is as old as the tradition TM comes from. The Christian conversion experience is often discussed as a lifting off of a great and heretofor unexperience weight as the load of karma is shifted from the Christian to Christ. An Indian friend of mine who converted from Hinduism to Christianity says that his discussions with his family usually come to this point: As a Hindu you might have to go through untold lifetimes to get rid of all your karma but as a Christian it is gone in this lifetime. Thus, Christians honor the act that frees them from the almost impossible task of removing one's own bad karma. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, rudra_joe [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Well, Maharishi as the display of the absolute on the relative is pretty fascinating, and really isn't helpful with all lifes little tediums.

Maharishi is my Guru Dev; he is my true I and knows me better than I know myself. He created me, he sustains me, he destroys me. I attended the course for two weeks while this Understanding was driven home deeper and deeper every day. Without my saying a word, my (his) every thought, word and experience was commented upon, verified, and deepened by him. The intimate play between the Wholeness and the particle is heart-breaking in its innocence and simple splendor. His love and grace are boundless; in knowing him even to whatever small degree I do, I am exalted and humbled beyond measure. And all of this is perfectly ordinary. I have posted this material here only to clarify and correct some of the finer details of the unfoldment of Brahman I gave here last year.

'SCARY MOVIE' PRODUCER MAKES CAMPAIGN AD; MOCKS DEMOCRATSTue Oct 10 2006 15:13:16 ET**Exclusive**The DRUDGE REPORT has obtained an exclusive copy of a "scary" campaign advertisement created by Hollywood producer and director David Zucker that was intended to be used by GOP organizations in the closing weeks of the 2006 campaign. However, the advertisement was deemed "too hot" by GOP strategists all across Washington, DC who have refused to use it![VIDEO LINK] In the ad, Zucker, producer of SCARY MOVIE 4, recreates former Clinton Secretary of State Madeleine Albright's 2000 visit to North Korea. During the visit, Secretary Albright presented North Korean dictator Kim Jong Il with a basketball autographed by former NBA superstar Michael Jordan. An actress playing Secretary Albright is shown presenting Kim Jong Il with the Michael Jordan basketball, painting the walls of Osama bin Laden's Afghanistan cave and turning a blind eye to suicide bombers. In one scene her skirt rips as she changes the tire of a Middle Eastern dictator's limousine.One GOP strategist said "jaws dropped" when the ad was first viewed. "Nobody could believe Zucker thought any political organization could use this ad. It makes a point, but it's way over the top." Zucker is the producer and director of comedies such as "Airplane" and "The Naked Gun." In 2004, Zucker, a longtime Democrat, embraced the Republican Party based on concerns he had about national security issues and voted for President George W. Bush.

The laws of PHYSICS DO NOT APLLY BEYOND THE EVENT HORIZON. Actually, classical black hole theory says that the laws of physics do not apply at the singularity at the center of mass. I have never heard a theory claim that they don't apply beyond the event horizon, Well now you have: According to Roger Penrose's Principle of Cosmic Censorship, the fact that the laws of physics break down inside the event horizon has no impact on the physics outside the black hole http://astrosun.tn.cornell.edu/academics/courses/astro201/bh_structur e.htm YOu gotta learn to stop selectively reading. Here is what that URL actually says. Note that it says explicitly that: At the center of the black hole lies a singularity, that is, a region where the current laws of physics break down because the circumstances are so extreme. Sir Roger Penrose is very clear on this. According to Roger Penrose's Principle of Cosmic Censorship, the fact that the laws of physics break down inside the event horizon has no impact on the physics outside the black hole that AFTER the Planck era 9for a few nanoseconds, the laws of PHYSICS DO NOT WORK. The same is true in many macroscopic examples. There is a whole binary star system that has baffled scientists because it in no way shape or form adheres to the known laws of physics. Hmmm... Reference? And, it there are myriad books out there about the oddities that existed, according to theory, during the first few seconds of Existence. We're not talking about that OR about the singularity, but about the conditions inside the event horizon and outside the singularity region. Um, a singularity is a singularity. Beyond the event horizon the laws of physics break down Mathematically, as we look back in time, we can determine that the laws of nature completely break down at 10 to the minus 43rd power of a second (Planck time) after the creation event. You're familiar, of course, with the mathematical truism that if the universe is closed it is, by definition, a universe-sized black hole, yes? Um...reference please. If conditions inside a black hole were automatically different than outside, our physical laws couldn't work if the universe was closed. Um...reference please. You are making the mistake that you think the event horizon is just some region of space like any other. There would be an immediate change to infinite gravity, and zero time, which even before infinity is reached the laws of physics will not work as expected. The event horizon is that point at which the physics breaks: Recall that a black hole has a singularity at its center which is cloaked by an event horizon. The radius of the event horizon is the Schwarschild radius === R(Sch) = 2 G M / c**2 . Recall that it is good that the singularity is hidden from our Universe by the event horizon as interesting (and odd) things can happen near the singularity. So now ask the question of what happens if you merge the ideas of QM with the ideas of Einstein (GR)? Well, suppose that W(Compton) ~ R(Sch) so that the uncertainty in the position of the singularity becomes comparable to the radius of the event horizon. This will uncloak the singularity!! On this scale, the structure of space-time becomes poorly defined and general relativity (as formulated) must break down. Planck Scales This breakdown occurs for masses known as the Planck mass which is defined as Planck mass = M(P) = sqrt[hc/(2G)] ~ 5.5 x 10**(-5) grams For reference purposes: m(proton) = 1.7 x 10**(-24) grams and m (electron) = 9.1 x 10**(-28) grams The W(Compton) and R(Sch) which correspond to the Planck mass is W(Compton) = h/mc = R(Sch) = 2GM/c**2 = 4 x 10**(-33) cm http://zebu.uoregon.edu/~imamura/209/apr5/planck.html Now, I have given half a dozen references for my points.

Actually, I recall some issue with nano-tech particles used in window cleaners, so I think the article is incorrect. slashdot.org had an article about it at least 6 months ago, I think. http://tinyurl.com/eqzhk To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'

However, the advertisement was deemed too hot by GOP strategists all across Washington, DC who have refused to use it! [VIDEO LINK] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7h3GPc_yMCE In the ad, Zucker, producer of SCARY MOVIE 4, recreates former Clinton Secretary of State Madeleine Albright's 2000 visit to North Korea. During the visit, Secretary Albright presented North Korean dictator Kim Jong Il with a basketball autographed by former NBA superstar Michael Jordan. An actress playing Secretary Albright is shown presenting Kim Jong Il with the Michael Jordan basketball, painting the walls of Osama bin Laden's Afghanistan cave and turning a blind eye to suicide bombers. In one scene her skirt rips as she changes the tire of a Middle Eastern dictator's limousine. One GOP strategist said jaws dropped when the ad was first viewed. Nobody could believe Zucker thought any political organization could use this ad. It makes a point, but it's way over the top. Zucker is the producer and director of comedies such as Airplane and The Naked Gun. In 2004, Zucker, a longtime Democrat, embraced the Republican Party based on concerns he had about national security issues and voted for President George W. Bush. Developing... Stupid ad, the GOP was smart not to use it. The fact is the Bush administration ignored outcries to keep an eye on North Korea and get some talks going. But gotta be macho Georgie said he wasn't going to continue any talks even though the Clinton era talks with North Korea prevented nuclear development. We might be better giving Jong Il access to a Hollywood studio where he'll totally forget about being a dictator and indulge his dream of being a movie director. And make Jenna Jamison the ambassador to North Korea since Jong Il is also a big porn fan. By the time he finished his film North Korea would probably be part of South Korea.

[FairfieldLife] Re: Christians obsession with death
Very succinct summary. Thanks. I feel much the same -- both about the subject, and Maharishi's teachings regarding Jesus' status and, consequently, his consciousness. That simple and important 'revision' of Christianity by Maharishi allowed him (IMO) to make his intitial inroads and successes in the West*, or at least overcome intitial knee-jerk dismissals from the Christian perspective until the positive effects of the meditation itself overcame such suspicions. Yogananda had done that also, incorporating Jesus and his teachings into the SRF (and by extension, Hinduism itself), but he did it on a Christian-bhakti footing. Maharishi did it in a purely intellectual way that made perfect, immediate sense, was at the same time very respectful of Christianity and Jesus, but also implicitly incorporated/subsumed Christianity into the meta-philosophy of TM and Maharishi's brand/lineage of Advaita Vedanta. Really masterful teaching. Little bit harder position to maintain with the present semi-Sai Baba Hindu veneer of the TMO.

Funnily, the thing that strikes me most in that film is the scene near the beginning where the pre-death Pitt character gets hit by a bus. It's one of the most real and horrific scenes I have ever seen at the movies. My favorite's the one with the old Jamaican lady. That just blows me away. But those are the showy scenes, relatively speaking. There are lots of subtle moments that are just astonishingly good. Pitt *underplays* the role; I don't think I've ever seen Cruise underplay, and I'm not sure he could. His acting is all on the surface, it seems to me, whereas Pitt's comes from the inside. Not that Cruise doesn't usually do a good job, but imagine him trying to play Joe Black! Pitt (or the director) was smart enough to know flash would kill it, and that he had the stuff not to have to rely on flash. On the other hand, I don't know if Pitt could do Jerry McGuire as well as Cruise. I'd like to see Clint Eastwood direct Pitt. They haven't done anything together yet, have they? You know who's another underappreciated actor? Jason Scott Lee, who played Bruce Lee (no relation) in Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story. The film is kind of a potboiler, but Lee's performance is worth sitting through it. (I'm sure martial arts people are not entranced; Lee had never done any before the film). Great scenes with good old Nancy Kwan, much better as a character actress than she ever was as an ingenue. Anyway, he's Chinese-American, so I guess there aren't many lead roles for him, which is a shame.

Maharishi is my Guru Dev; he is my true I and knows me better than I know myself. He created me, he sustains me, he destroys me. I attended the course for two weeks while this Understanding was driven home deeper and deeper every day. Without my saying a word, my (his) every thought, word and experience was commented upon, verified, and deepened by him. The intimate play between the Wholeness and the particle is heart-breaking in its innocence and simple splendor. His love and grace are boundless; in knowing him even to whatever small degree I do, I am exalted and humbled beyond measure. And all of this is perfectly ordinary. I have posted this material here only to clarify and correct some of the finer details of the unfoldment of Brahman I gave here last year. I am not interested in debating or discussing them particularly. They were simply some loose ends that had to be tied up. All glory to Guru Dev :-) Guarantee you that MMY would scream you out of the room if you claimed that shit in his presence.

In fact, I believe that Tom Cruise should have got the Oscar for Rain Man instead of Dustin Hoffman. His straight man role was much harder and more complex to do than the predictable handicapped spotlight role Hoffman got. absolutely, can't agree more. that being said I am Hoffman fan, I can't recall a movie that he played that I didn't liked. Straw dogs, marathon man were great, i liked him in Meet the Fockers which was hilarious. The first time I ever saw him was his performance as Ratso Rizzo in Midnight Cowboy, a role which changed the way Hollywood looked at both leading men and character actors. It was unprecedented. And I'm amazed at how good Pitt is in things such as Snatch where he played a mumbling Irish Gypsy prizefighter or Troy in which he played Achilles where his physicality alone should have won him the Oscar. yup,not like Tom, i do believe that Pitt get the much credit though.

Both Cruise and Brad Pitt don't get enough credit for their acting because of their good looks. I don't care much for Cruise, but I'm a huge Pitt fan. My favorite film of his is Meet Joe Black. It's very long and very slow and very talky, and you have to be *very* relaxed to sit through it. But he has some genuinely transcendent scenes that give me goose bumps. I enjoyed that film, too. Funnily, the thing that strikes me most in that film is the scene near the beginning where the pre-death Pitt character gets hit by a bus. It's one of the most real and horrific scenes I have ever seen at the movies. My favorite's the one with the old Jamaican lady. That just blows me away. But those are the showy scenes, relatively speaking. There are lots of subtle moments that are just astonishingly good. Pitt *underplays* the role; I don't think I've ever seen Cruise underplay, and I'm not sure he could. His acting is all on the surface, it seems to me, whereas Pitt's comes from the inside. Not that Cruise doesn't usually do a good job, but imagine him trying to play Joe Black! Pitt (or the director) was smart enough to know flash would kill it, and that he had the stuff not to have to rely on flash. Have you seen Snatch yet? It's directed by Guy Ritchie, a British director, who did Lock, STock and two smoking barrels, both Indie hits. On the other hand, I don't know if Pitt could do Jerry McGuire as well as Cruise. I'd like to see Clint Eastwood direct Pitt. They haven't done anything together yet, have they? No, I don't think so. You know who's another underappreciated actor? Jason Scott Lee, who played Bruce Lee (no relation) ...and not to be confused with the white-American actor Jason Lee... in Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story. The film is kind of a potboiler, but Lee's performance is worth sitting through it. (I'm sure martial arts people are not entranced; Lee had never done any before the film). Great scenes with good old Nancy Kwan, much better as a character actress than she ever was as an ingenue. Anyway, he's Chinese-American, so I guess there aren't many lead roles for him, which is a shame. He starred in a favourite of mine that takes place in Northern Quebec...Scott plays an Inuit and Ann Parrillaud a Metis (half Indian on the mother's side and half White)...it's called Map of the Human Heart and he's wonderful in it.

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

Here is what that URL actually says. Note that it says explicitly that: At the center of the black hole lies a singularity, that is, a region where the current laws of physics break down because the circumstances are so extreme. Sir Roger Penrose is very clear on this. According to Roger Penrose's Principle of Cosmic Censorship, the fact that the laws of physics break down inside the event horizon has no impact on the physics outside the black hole They are certain they break down at the event horizon and at the singularity, but there's no way to discuss what they are like between the event horizon and the singularity. Most just assume that things stay relatively normal for a while. There's no way to prove it either way of course. that AFTER the Planck era 9for a few nanoseconds, the laws of PHYSICS DO NOT WORK. The same is true in many macroscopic examples. There is a whole binary star system that has baffled scientists because it in no way shape or form adheres to the known laws of physics. Hmmm... Reference? And, it there are myriad books out there about the oddities that existed, according to theory, during the first few seconds of Existence. We're not talking about that OR about the singularity, but about the conditions inside the event horizon and outside the singularity region. Um, a singularity is a singularity. Beyond the event horizon the laws of physics break down Mathematically, as we look back in time, we can determine that the laws of nature completely break down at 10 to the minus 43rd power of a second (Planck time) after the creation event. You're familiar, of course, with the mathematical truism that if the universe is closed it is, by definition, a universe-sized black hole, yes? Um...reference please. It's a non-sensical definition it turns out. However, the same reasoning that says it is nonsensical ends up precluding the existance of black holes in the first place so... If conditions inside a black hole were automatically different than outside, our physical laws couldn't work if the universe was closed. Um...reference please. In a truely closed universe, there are no black holes because that would imply something existing outside the boundries of our space-time, which we just said isn't the case by calling it closed. It's another one of those odd contradictory things. You are making the mistake that you think the event horizon is just some region of space like any other. There would be an immediate change to infinite gravity, and zero time, which even before infinity is reached the laws of physics will not work as expected. The event horizon is that point at which the physics breaks: As far as I know, no-one claims infinite gravity at the event horizon. Infinite acceleration would be required to hover at the event horizon because you have to be moving at the speed of light, and the event horizon is a singularity in its own right, according to the math, but the gravity isn't infinite there. It's only large enough to require an escape velocity greater than c. The singularity found at the event horizon is apparently only due to an artifact of the coordinate system used (e.g. there's no unique way to describe the lattitude and longitude of the North pole on Earth). And the odds of the singularity fluctuating outside the event horizon are probably pretty slim. Recall that a black hole has a singularity at its center which is cloaked by an event horizon. The radius of the event horizon is the Schwarschild radius === R(Sch) = 2 G M / c**2 . Recall that it is good that the singularity is hidden from our Universe by the event horizon as interesting (and odd) things can happen near the singularity. So now ask the question of what happens if you merge the ideas of QM with the ideas of Einstein (GR)? Well, suppose that W(Compton) ~ R(Sch) so that the uncertainty in

In a period of less than two weeks, regional poison control centers in Germany received about 80 reports of people coughing or complaining of fever and headache, and several people were hospitalized with pulmonary edema, after using Magic Nano surface-sealing sprays. Cleaning-product manufacturer Kleinmann GmbH, which packages and sells the sprays, quickly withdrew aerosol formulations that also contain a propellant and warned against their further use. The company has sold the products in pump bottles for more than two years and has had no reports of problems. The sprays are designed for treating glass and ceramic surfaces to make them water- and dirt-repellant for easier cleaning. Magic Nano products contain silica and silicone nanoparticles as well as ethanol, water, and other ingredients, according to the poison control center GIZ-Nord. Although Kleinmann did not name specific suppliers involved, it has partnered with nanomaterial producer Nanopool, along with companies spun off from the Institute for New Materials in Saarbrucken. According to BfR, it seems that users had inhaled components of the spray which had remained in the ambient air as fine particles of the aerosol. The exact cause of the health problems and any connection to the nanoparticles or propellant have yet to be established, BfR points out.

I am not interested in debating or discussing them particularly. They were simply some loose ends that had to be tied up.

[FairfieldLife] Re: cosmic ripples
Sir Roger Penrose is very clear on this. According to Roger Penrose's Principle of Cosmic Censorship, the fact that the laws of physics break down inside the event horizon has no impact on the physics outside the black hole They are certain they break down at the event horizon and at the singularity, but there's no way to discuss what they are like between the event horizon and the singularity. Correct, because the laws of physics do not aplly there. Otherwise the physicists would describe them. They can't because it is theoretical, and the laws cannot work beyond a certain point within that theory. They do not work there. Think about it. Time stops at the Event Horizon. Please state which laws of physics can still apply when time has stopped? The envelope of no return surrounding the black hole is its event horizon. As a clock falls toward a black hole, time slows on approach to the event horizon, and it completely stops at the horizon (not just at the center of the hole). http://www.utm.edu/research/iep/t/time.htm Most just assume that things stay relatively normal for a while. There's no way to prove it either way of course. Incorrect. In a truely closed universe, there are no black holes because that would imply something existing outside the boundries of our space-time, which we just said isn't the case by calling it closed. It's another one of those odd contradictory things. Incorrect, classic black hole theory has included the possiblitiy of multi-verse for years. And that has been my point all along. Hawkings is now saying that the multi-verse connection is NOT there, and you are trying to tell us that that is not significant.

Better than 90% of the stuff out there, but not like the classical Scorcese mob movie, although this is all about the Mob. I prefer Scorcese's films related to music, such as 'The Last Waltz' , 1977. Last month, via Direct TV, I DVRd it, and have thoroughly enjoyed several viewings. Scorcese interviews The Band, and elicits very colorful descriptions from Robbie Robertson, Rick Danko, et al, along with capturing the farewell's concert's broad appeal, including recitations of poetry, interspersed between performances from Van Morrison, Dylan, Dr. John, Neil Young, Clapton, Emmy Lou Harris, Muddy Waters, etc., all with The Band, who performed a much broader range of music than you might have remembered. Regarding The Departed, I simply got bored with the repitive in-your-face violence, which pushed aside character development. Last weekend's opening yielded $26 mil and the No. 1 rating, but I predict that next weekend's take will be $8 mil, followed by $3 mil the third week.
