For example, I would agree with Xeno 100% and swear that you have no capacity to understand even what he is talking about. I stumbled over this very same sentence as Seraphita did. And I think I know were you (both) are coming from in this respect: It's the same, you may not know it's the *mantra* you are thinking, as it is so refined (it may be like a 'rhythm' or changed according to checking notes), and you may not know that you are even thinking the mantra as it is so refined. But the problem with all this is, as I think you both don't quite see, that you make the means (thinking of the mantra) into the end, to which this means should lead. And here comes Xeno's point: Once you reached the end, the means becomes obsolete. You don't keep carrying the boat around with you, when you have reached the other shore. But the other shore looks different than you expected. So you realize at some point, that the means don't work anymore in the old, expected way. You could still use them - that was what Xeno was pointing out - for slightly different ends, more like, just to relax, or even wake up or to be in a harmonious thought-space, but not anymore to transcend, as you are always already transcended - or to be in silence, as the silence of transcendence becomes *directly* accessible to you. Now, I am sure anybody can understand these thoughts, but - as I suppose - you are skeptic about Xeno's realizations, you simply don't accept what he says, and being addicted to the TM process, think he is meditating wrongly.

Now I still do TM but not all the time. Most of the spiritual techniques I have had have failed to be relevant. If I have certain kinds of fatigue, TM seems OK, it is especially nice sometimes when I am transitioning out of sleep (this might seem very odd to some); at other times I do an analogue of Zazen, which is basically TM without a mantra, and not moving. When I am very clear, this kind of meditation does not present any resistance. One reason TM fails is it is designed to transcend thought; if thought is already 'transcended', it has nothing to do, so resistance is experienced because you are trying to do something that is not necessary, even if, as the story about this technique goes, the technique is supposed to be 'effortless'. As the experience of being becomes more pronounced as unity is uncovered, there is less and less for techniques to do, and at this point one has to start to figure out what to do on one's own. If meditation techniques failed because you gave up, the whole enterprise is a failure, but if they failed because everything that was supposed to happen more or less happened (the result might be somewhat different that what you expected), then you are awake, and the next step is integrating what you realised with the rest of your life and nobody can tell you how to do this, you have to figure it out for yourself (you know, 'self-sufficiency'), and this is not a matter of technique: it is a matter of insight, balance, and resolve. There are times too, before awakening, when you get overloaded with spiritual crap, and you need a vacation from it. You don't want to talk about it or hear about it. You want to do something else for a while. You can still practice techniques, you just do not give a damn for a while about what it is all supposed to be about. Which is good because it is not about what it is supposed to be about. That is the cover story, which is designed to keep you occupied while the techniques undermine from below and eventually show you the cover story was a fraud. TM transcends thought inwardly, but eventually inwardly as a direction does not exist, roundabout 'cosmic consciousness'. Awakening (unity), transcends your whole conceptual world outwardly, and then outwardly as a direction does not exist either. At this point meditation becomes at best a maintenance utility, and at this point you really do have to get a life to make progress and give depth and stability in living seamlessly with what was realised. You have to get creative, because the people around you, unless you happen to run into a deeply enlightened individual with tonnes of experience, are not going to understand what you are experiencing, and their attempts to 'tell you what you should do' will just fumble repeatedly. So, my apologies for butting into this conversation. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, MichaelJackson wrote: I have done it [TM] occasionally and it feels good once or twice then it kind of like J Alex was saying he can't even make himself do it.

[FairfieldLife] A US attack on Syria will Prolong the War
Less than 1% of people died from 'gassing' out of over 100,000 killed! Is this about gassing of innocent citizens? Wanta buy a bridge from Brooklyn? Follow the Money! Is it 'green oil' too How's Iraq doing now? Afghanistan? About 'oil'? The American citizens finance these wars. Could that be YOU or people you know? From: Cort Greene cort.gre...@gmail.com A US attack on Syria will Prolong the War Posted on 09/04/2013 by Juan Cole The struggle in Syria began peacefully in spring of 2011, but after about half a year it turned violent when the regime deployed tanks and other heavy munitions against the protesters. Some of the latter took up weapons and turned to violence in revenge. Thereafter the struggle spiraled into a civil war, in which the regime showed itself perfectly willing to attack civilian city quarters and kill indiscriminately. The struggle has killed over 100,000 persons. As the regime became ever more brutal, the rebel fighters were increasingly radicalized. Now, among the more important groups is Jabhat al-Nusra or the Succor Front, a radical al-Qaeda affiliate. President Obama’s plan to bomb Syria with cruise missiles will do nothing to hasten the end of the conflict. Instead, it will likely prolong it. It should be remembered that the US couldn’t end the Iraqi civil war despite having over 100,000 boots on the ground in that country. It is highly unlikely that Washington can end this one from 30,000 feet. The hope for avoiding another decade of killing is that the governmental elite and the rebels get tired of fighting and prove willing to make a deal. It is probably too late for Syria to succeed at the kind of transition achieved in Yemen. There, the president stepped down and his vice president ran for his seat. At the same time, members of the opposition were given seats in the cabinet. That kind of cohabitation with the former enemy is easier if too much blood hasn’t bee shed. The best solution for Syria would be if President Bashar al-Assad steps down and the Baath Party gave up its dictatorial tactics. At the same time, the rebels would have to forewswear al-Qaeda-type extremism. Probably each side would have to feel that they could not gain any substantial benefit from further fighting, for negotiations to have prayer of success. The prospect of a US missile strike is emboldening the rebels. They increasingly hope that the US will come in militarily with them. the rebels don’t look at the proposed US missile strikes as a limited affair or as solely related to chemical weapons use. Aside from al-Qaeda, they see the US as an ally. Thus, they are complaining that Obama’s indecisiveness is emboldening Syrian President al-Assad. The US is now part of their strategic calculations and they see decisive American action as an asset. Obviously, such euphoria at the prospect of US military intervention on the rebel side is incompatible with the kind of “pacted” transition political scientists favor. The rebels will have every incentive to hold out for ever more forceful outside Syria intervention in the coming years. By striking Syria, Obama has all but guaranteed that a negotiated solution becomes impossible for years to come. In the absence of serious negotiations, the civil war will continue and likely get worse. The US should give serious thought to what the likely actual (as opposed to ideal) reaction in Syria will be to the landing of a few cruise missiles. The anti-regime elements will celebrate, convinced that it will all be over quickly if the US gets involved. The last thing they will want will be to negotiate with the regime.
Re: [FairfieldLife] RE: Rep. Grayson: the military industrial complex wants the Syrian strike
Obama has little more final say than you do over an earthquake. Military Industrial Complex, yes.. The American public #1! Take 'oil' out of the equation and replace it with 'creative' positive solutions and there is no war or whatever you call it. A concerted effort by Americans in every community to ration their gas intake and use alternate forms of transportation would send us in another direction. I'm an activist in my community to do this - results? Just started at beginning of Summer. Big job - people are habitual and apathetic, but that's what Hitler loved. Essentially, the country is comatose except for a small minority which needs to quickly, steadily increase in size. BTW, the UN will do nothing. Russia and China will veto anything anybody wants to do against Assad. I just think Obama has made the US look very weak with his blurred lines and other foreign policies leading up to this. He'll probably end up lobbing a few cruise missiles and saying *taught them a lesson* and make us look even weaker. Assad won't be harmed and Al Qaeda knows he is weak and nothing to fear as does Iran. The next three years are going to be disastrous. He's nothing but a community organizer(agitator) that has gone global.

Eventually, AJ Miller revealed to her that she was not Mary Luck but infact Mary Magdalene. Mary Luck now joins AJ Miller in promoting Divine Truth and provides her own talks and presentations. Like Miller, she has written several letters and documents and signs them as Mary Magdalene. In them she refers to Miller as Yeshua (Jesus). Worth noting is that Mary Luck is not the first person who AJ Miller has named Mary Magdalene. Karen, the woman he left his wife and children for was also promoted as being Mary Magdalene.

[FairfieldLife] I - You - Me - We? [1 Attachment]
I - You - Me - We? April 18, 2009 The most important word in the English language is ‘iumewe’!? With out I and me, can ‘you’ really be known and is there any possibility for ‘us’ or ‘we’? Is not ‘help’ a word to consider but then, ‘I’ is needed and, certainly ‘you’! Words, words, who cares but, then again ‘we’ must, for what they mean to ‘you’ and ‘me’. If ‘you’ or ‘I’ need ‘help’, ‘I’ may need ‘you’ or, you ‘me’! Can ‘I’ trust ‘you’ to come to my aid to ‘help’? Is not ‘trust’ a word that needs to be considered as one that ‘you’ and ‘I’ need to create for that bond that makes life a little sweeter. It may be friends or family but can ‘we’, ‘you’, or ‘I’ do without ‘friends’ or ‘family’ when ‘we’ need that ‘help’? Can ‘I’ do anything in life without others giving and, ‘I’ receiving? Does the world go round without any of ‘us’ connecting, preferably with something that keeps ‘us’ in harmony and away from harm’s way? The world may not need ‘us’ as much as ‘we’ need it to give what ‘we’ need to sustain life. However, sustaining life isn’t enough to make ‘our’ world go round with harmony and oh yes, ‘love’. Where ‘love’ is ‘love’ grows and provides the light and nurturing that ‘we’ all need! Can ‘you’ find ‘love’ and ‘I’ too, so we can experience ‘we’ found love! Does ‘meaning’ for living lose it’s luster if ‘love’ doesn’t fill ‘our’ hearts and every moment of living? Can ‘I’ do without ‘you’ and ‘you’ without me for very long? We are all interdependent on the sun, moon, and stars as well as all that’s here to keep our lives filled with the possibility of ‘hope’ and the ‘love’ that can reach to ‘you’ and ‘I’ that make up the ‘we’. Take away the ‘breath of love’ and all of ‘us’ wither away as if ‘we’ never visited here to find and experience ‘love’. I need you and you need me and, we, with love, have the freedom to create anything we want to make life better for ‘you’!

[FairfieldLife] Immaculate Conception Coming? The End of Men?
Death of the father: British scientists discover how to turn women's bone marrow into sperm By FIONA MACRAE Bye bye baby: The new science means the biological role of the father is under threat British scientists are ready to turn female bone marrow into sperm, cutting men out of the process of creating life. The breakthrough paves the way for lesbian couples to have children that are biologically their own. Gay men could follow suit by using the technique to make eggs from male bone marrow. Researchers at Newcastle upon Tyne University say their technique will help lead to new treatments for infertility. But critics warn that it sidelines men and raises the prospect of babies being born through entirely artificial means. The research centres around stem cells - the body's 'mother' cells which can turn into any other type of cell. According to New Scientist magazine, the scientists want to take stem cells from a woman donor's bone marrow and transform them into sperm through the use of special chemicals and vitamins. Newcastle professor Karim Nayernia has applied for permission to carry out the work and is ready to start the experiments within two months. The biologist, who pioneered the technique with mice, believes early- stage 'female sperm' could be produced inside two years. Mature sperm capable of fertilising eggs might take three more years. Early-stage sperm have already been produced from male bone marrow. Taking stem cells from an adult donor - possibly a cancer patient - removes the ethical problems associated with using embryos. The race to find a cure for infertility is global.. Greg Aharonian, a U.S. analyst who is trying to patent the technologies behind female sperm and male eggs, said he wants to undermine the argument that heterosexual marriage is superior because it is aimed at procreation. I'm a troublemaker, he said. Read more... I was the daughter of a sperm donor - shame no-one told me Scientists discover a way to reverse memory loss Researchers at the Butantan Institute in Brazil, meanwhile, claim to have turned embryonic stem cells from male mice into both sperm and eggs. They are now working on skin cells.. If their experiments succeed, the stage would be set for a gay man to donate skin cells that could be used to make eggs. These could then be fertilised by his partner's sperm and placed into the womb of a surrogate mother. Irina Kerkis, a researcher at the Brazilian centre, said this development is possible, but raises ethical questions. Laboratory-grown sperm and eggs offer hope for those left infertile by radiotherapy treatment when they were young. The experiments could also provide an invaluable insight into dealing with infertility, a little understood condition that affects one in six couples. Other scientists warn however that the research is still in its infancy and any treatment is still many years away from use in hospitals and clinics. There are also fears that children born from artificial eggs and sperm will suffer severe health problems, like the mice in the Newcastle experiments. Couples who have children from artificial sperm created from women would be able to have girls only. This is because the female sperm would lack the Y-chromosome needed for boys. Robin Lovell-Badge, of the National Institute for Medical Research in London, said the creation of female sperm is at least a decade away. Josephine Quintavalle, of Comment on Reproductive Ethics, a campaign group, said: We are looking at absurd solutions to very obscure situations and not addressing the main issue. Nobody is interested in looking at what is causing infertility - social reasons such as obesity, smoking and age. All these things would provide solutions which wouldn't grab the headlines, but a lot more people would get the response they want - which is to be able to have their own children. Mike Judge, of the Christian Institute faith group, said the Newcastle project flies in the face of research showing that children do best when raised by a married mixed- sex couple. Children need male and female role models in their lives, he added. Yes, there are children raised by single parents through all sorts of circumstances, but when you are talking about deliberately creating children in that way, that is morally wrong. Debra Matthews, a U.S. bioethicist, said: People want children and no one wants anyone else to tell them they can't have them. An update of Britain's ageing fertility laws is going through Parliament and is likely to allow the use of artificial sperm and eggs in IVF treatment - but only for heterosexual couples. The Newcastle research also paves the way for a woman to grow her own sperm and use it to fertilise her natural eggs, creating a child to which she is both mother and father. Similarly, a man could be both father and mother to a

[FairfieldLife] We're being lied to about Pirates off Somalia
Who is the Robber? The 'rest of the story'! Pirating off Somalia has increase over the past four or five years as fishermen from Somalia realize that pirating is more lucrative. . One cannot let that deliberate manipulation of the truth stand. === Some are clearly just gangsters. But others are trying to stop illegal dumping and trawling Johann Hari: You are being lied to about pirates Monday, 5 January 2009 http://www.independ ent.co.uk/ opinion/commenta tors/johann- hari/johann- hari-you- are-being- lied-to-about- pirates-1225817. html Who imagined that in 2009, the world's governments would be declaring a new War on Pirates? As you read this, the British Royal Navy – backed by the ships of more than two dozen nations, from the US to China – is sailing into Somalian waters to take on men we still picture as parrot-on-the- shoulder pantomime villains. They will soon be fighting Somalian ships and even chasing the pirates onto land, into one of the most broken countries on earth. But behind the arrr-me-hearties oddness of this tale, there is an untold scandal. The people our governments are labelling as one of the great menaces of our times have an extraordinary story to tell – and some justice on their side. Pirates have never been quite who we think they are. In the golden age of piracy – from 1650 to 1730 – the idea of the pirate as the senseless, savage Bluebeard that lingers today was created by the British government in a great propaganda heave. Many ordinary people believed it was false: pirates were often saved from the gallows by supportive crowds. Why? What did they see that we can't? In his book Villains Of All Nations, the historian Marcus Rediker pores through the evidence. If you became a merchant or navy sailor then – plucked from the docks of London's East End, young and hungry – you ended up in a floating wooden Hell. You worked all hours on a cramped, half-starved ship, and if you slacked off, the all-powerful captain would whip you with the Cat O' Nine Tails. If you slacked often, you could be thrown overboard. And at the end of months or years of this, you were often cheated of your wages. Pirates were the first people to rebel against this world. They mutinied – and created a different way of working on the seas. Once they had a ship, the pirates elected their captains, and made all their decisions collectively, without torture. They shared their bounty out in what Rediker calls one of the most egalitarian plans for the disposition of resources to be found anywhere in the eighteenth century. They even took in escaped African slaves and lived with them as equals. The pirates showed quite clearly – and subversively – that ships did not have to be run in the brutal and oppressive ways of the merchant service and the Royal Navy. This is why they were romantic heroes, despite being unproductive thieves. The words of one pirate from that lost age, a young British man called William Scott, should echo into this new age of piracy. Just before he was hanged in Charleston, South Carolina, he said: What I did was to keep me from perishing. I was forced to go a-pirateing to live. In 1991, the government of Somalia collapsed. Its nine million people have been teetering on starvation ever since – and the ugliest forces in the Western world have seen this as a great opportunity to steal the country's food supply and dump our nuclear waste in their seas. Yes: nuclear waste. As soon as the government was gone, mysterious European ships started appearing off the coast of Somalia, dumping vast barrels into the ocean. The coastal population began to sicken. At first they suffered strange rashes, nausea and malformed babies. Then, after the 2005 tsunami, hundreds of the dumped and leaking barrels washed up on shore. People began to suffer from radiation sickness, and more than 300 died. Ahmedou Ould-Abdallah, the UN envoy to Somalia, tells me: Somebody is dumping nuclear material here. There is also lead, and heavy metals such as cadmium and mercury – you name it. Much of it can be traced back to European hospitals and factories, who seem to be passing it on to the Italian mafia to dispose of cheaply. When I asked Mr Ould-Abdallah what European governments were doing about it, he said with a sigh: Nothing. There has been no clean-up, no compensation, and no prevention. At the same time, other European ships have been looting Somalia's seas of their greatest resource: seafood. We have destroyed our own fish stocks by overexploitation – and now we have moved on to theirs. More than $300m-worth of tuna, shrimp, and lobster are being stolen every year by illegal trawlers. The local fishermen are now starving. Mohammed Hussein, a fisherman in the town of Marka 100km south of Mogadishu, told Reuters: If nothing is done, there soon won't be much fish left in our coastal waters. This is the context in
[FairfieldLife] A Warning to Jews
A Warning to Jews When you see an article in the newspaper that the New York City Police Department is adding extra security to city Synagogues in anticipation of an attack, you’d better sit up and take notice. Such a piece appeared last week. In the coming days or weeks Israel will be making an important decision that will affect Jews worldwide. That decision is it’s response to Iran’s nuclear program and Iran’s President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s threat of destroying Israel as soon as he has the capability to do so. Debate rages about how close Iran is to fielding nuclear weapon technology. Unfortunately by the time we find out it will be already be too late. Iran has a capability today that could make parts of Israel uninhabitable for tens of thousands of years. It can do so by delivering dirty bombs filled with radioactive particulates perched atop their already proven missile technology. They are button-push away from launch. As has happened many times before, Israel is being painted into a corner from which it can only emerge through aggressive measures of self-defense. Indeed when our lives are threatened, Torah allows for a proactive strike against enemies. Israel is caught in a deadly Catch 22. If the country waits to react to Iran’s threats it will be too late, missiles will already be in the air. If it acts now it risks igniting a fierce regional conflict drawing the world into subduing Iran, which has already declared that if attacked it will strike at oil shipments in the Persian Gulf.. In many ways Iran is as much a global problem as it is Israel's. Aside from attacking oil shipments, Iran has another weapon in its arsenal, one in which it is the authority; terrorism. Hence the warning. Jews worldwide are in danger of being targeted in retribution for an Israeli incursion into Iran. I say this not to instill fear. On the contrary, it is a caution designed to make the 15 million Jews in the world aware so that they are forewarned and, as such, forearmed. Whatever groups you belong to - temples, schools, and community organizations - should put security plans in place today. Today, not tomorrow. There will be no advance notice of a threat. Personal protection plans likewise should be reviewed so that you and your family know what to do in the event of an emergency. Contacts with the local police is encouraged to make them aware of concerns so that they can react quickly should their help be needed. One can only hope that this warning is unnecessary. However, caution is the armor of the wise. On a final note and this is addressed to the rest of the world. It is high time to acknowledge Israel as a world diplomatic ally and true partner as the U.S. does. As the sole democracy in the Middle East and the seat of Western religious faith, Israel is a true member of the international community; it has proven so again and again. Now is as good a time as any to stand shoulder to shoulder with Israel and protect this tiny country from the forces that threaten it and its people. NYPD sees potential threat to synagogues from Hezbollah if Israel-Iran tensions escalate TOM HAYS Associated Press Writer 1:59 PM MDT, April 3, 2009 NEW YORK (AP) — The New York Police Department has prepared plans to beef up security at the city's synagogues and other Jewish sites amid escalating tensions between Israel and Iran, officials confirmed Friday. Concerns that Muslim extremist groups might retaliate against civilians in the city's Jewish community if Israel were to attack Iran's nuclear facilities prompted the NYPD to put together a response plan that includes deploying extra officers, including heavily armed Hercules Teams, to synagogues, Jewish community centers and Israeli diplomatic offices. The nation's largest police department revealed for the first time this week that it took similar precautions in 2008 after Imad Mughniyeh, a senior Hezbollah commander, was killed in a car bombing in Syria. The group blamed Israel for Mughniyeh's death. Just in case there was some kind of retaliation in New York, we had an operational plan that was implemented within hours of knowing he was hit, Mitch Silber, a top NYPD intelligence analyst, said Friday at a briefing about security measures for the Jewish holiday of Passover. There have been no specific threats reported against the city for the weeklong holiday, which starts at sundown Wednesday. But officials say the NYPD, since sharpening its focus on anti-terrorism after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, has kept a constant eye on militant groups like Hezbollah for signs they might attack the

Now this is worth examining. First, I think that it's wise to remember that, unless I am misinterpreting what you are saying, that both of you are equating meditation in this discussion with Transcendental Meditation. I do not. My experience is that some other forms of meditation and spiritual practice do NOT lead to the types of abherrent behavior we see in Nabby, Off, Judy. In these other traditions if this type of behavior was present before, and the three of them struggled to hang on to that behavior as desperately as these three do, it would NOT have been allowed. Other techniques and/or counseling would have been provided to keep the abherrent behavior from going as far and becoming as entrenched as it seems to have become in them. Compare and contrast to the TM community as we knew it, where these three DON'T EVEN STAND OUT. There are so MANY like them that my experience leads me to believe that there IS something in particular *wrong* with the TM approach if it allows behavior like this to not only go on for decades, but to be officially praised as being On The Program. It is an internal choice of a mental state that is important only to the person who prefers it. Curtis, I think that different *forms* of meditation have different effects, and that some of those effects seem to be more positive in the long run than others. Also, in many other spiritual traditions, they don't have the TM panacea belief that meditation ALONE will fix everything, and is all you need. They believe, in fact, just the opposite, that meditation alone will NOT fix everything, and that MANY other techniques of spiritual development are necessary. So I'm not sure I can agree with your thesis unless we are talking ONLY about TM, and its one size fits all / meditation is all you need mentality. It has not been my experience in some other spiritual com- munities that 30+ years of following *their( disci- plines results in a human being who seems to have learned nothing in all of those years. Yes, any group is composed of individuals, and there is variance between those individuals. But in any group there is also a sameness, a kind of psychic trademark of that spiritual tradition or practice. And I'm not alone in the larger world of spiritual seekers to have noticed that the TM tradition seems to produce more of these bent and broken people than other traditions do. I don't personally know WHY, but I do know that it seems to be the case.
Re: [FairfieldLife] WTC - New evidence for use of explosives
Good Info. Any countering information to this? Arhata Study claims 'highly engineered explosive' found in WTC rubble Stephen C. Webster Published: Saturday April 4, 2009 A team of scientists claim to have unearthed startling data from dust and debris gathered in the days and weeks after the World Trade Center towers collapsed on Sept. 11, 2001. In a study published by the Open Chemical Physics Journal -- a peer-reviewed, scientific publication -- Steven E. Jones and Niels Harrit level a stark allegation: that within the dust and rubble of the World Trade Center towers lays evidence of a highly engineered explosive, contrary to all federal studies of the collapses. We have discovered distinctive red/gray chips in all the samples we have studied of the dust produced by the destruction of the World Trade Center, reads the paper's abstract. One sample was collected by a Manhattan resident about ten minutes after the collapse of the second WTC Tower, two the next day, and a fourth about a week later. The properties of these chips were analyzed using optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy (XEDS), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The study, however, shows that the dust was collected from four different sites, three of which were not in the immediate area surrounding the fallen towers. Most of the samples are collections of dust taken from blocks away. They claim their analysis has uncovered active thermitic material: a combination of elemental aluminum and iron oxide in a form of thermite known as nanostructured super-thermite. Thermite, used in steel welding, fireworks shows, hand grenades and demolition, can produce a chemical reaction known for extremely high temperatures focused in a very small area for a short period of time. According to the Navy's Small Business Innovation Research, super-thermite is restricted under the International Traffic in Arms Regulation (ITAR), which controls the export and import of defense-related material and services. This finding really goes beyond anything that has previously been shown, said Jones in a media advisory. We had to use sophisticated tools to analyze the dust because this isn't just a typical explosive, RDX or CD4 or something -- this is a highly engineered material not readily available to just anyone.

[FairfieldLife] Mental Health: Managing Anger
This is a terrific outline of pro's and con's of anger. Good to make part of anyone's repertoire! Arhata Mental Health: Managing Anger Anger is a very powerful emotion that can stem from feelings of frustration, hurt, annoyance, or disappointment. It is a normal human emotion that can range from slight irritation to strong rage. What Is Anger? Anger is a very powerful emotion that can stem from feelings of frustration, hurt, annoyance or disappointment. It is a normal human emotion that can range from slight irritation to strong rage. Anger can be harmful or helpful, depending upon how it is expressed. Knowing how to recognize and express anger in appropriate ways can help people to reach goals, handle emergencies and solve problems. However, problems can occur if people fail to recognize and understand their anger. What Are the Dangers of Suppressed Anger? Suppressed anger can be an underlying cause of anxiety and depression. Anger that is not appropriately expressed can disrupt relationships, affect thinking and behavior patterns, and create a variety of physical problems. Chronic (long-term) anger has been linked to health issues such as high blood pressure, heart problems, headaches, skin disorders and digestive problems. In addition, anger can be linked to problems such as crime, emotional and physical abuse, and other violent behavior. What Steps Can I Take to Help Manage My Anger? When you start feeling angry, try deep breathing, positive self-talk, or stopping your angry thoughts. Breathe deeply from your diaphragm. Slowly repeat a calm word or phrase such as relax or take it easy. Repeat it to yourself while breathing deeply until the anger subsides. Although expressing anger is better than keeping it in, anger should be expressed in an appropriate way. Frequent outbursts of anger are often counter-productive and cause problems in relationships with others. Anger outbursts are also stressful to your nervous and cardiovascular systems and can make health problems worse. Learning how to use assertiveness is the healthy way to express your feelings, needs and preferences. Being assertive can be used in place of using anger in these situations. Seek out the support of others. Talk through your feelings and try to work on changing your behaviors. If you have trouble realizing when you are having angry thoughts, keep a log of when you feel angry. Try to gain a different perspective by putting yourself in another's place. Learn how to laugh at yourself and see humor in situations. Practice good listening skills. Listening can help improve communication and can facilitate trusting feelings between people. This trust can help you deal with potentially hostile emotions. Learn to assert yourself, expressing your feelings calmly and directly without becoming defensive, hostile or emotionally charged up. Consult self-help books on assertiveness or seek help from a professional therapist to learn how to use assertiveness and anger management skills. What Else Can I Do to Deal With My Anger in a Healthy Way? If you believe that your anger is out of control and is having a negative affect on your life and relationships, seek the help of a mental health professional. A psychologist or other licensed mental health professional can work with you to develop techniques for changing your thinking and your behavior. A mental health professional can help you to deal with your anger in an appropriate way. Choose your therapist carefully and make sure to seek treatment from a professional who is trained to teach anger management and assertiveness skills.

A woman arrived at the Gates of Heaven. While she was waiting for Saint Peter to greet her, she peeked through the gates. She saw a beautiful banquet table. Sitting all around were her parents and all the other people she had loved and who had died before her. They saw her and began calling greetings to her, Hello - How are you! We've been waiting for you! Good to see you. When Saint Peter came by, the woman said to him, This is such a wonderful place! How do I get in? You have to spell a word, Saint Peter told her. Which word? the woman asked. Love. The woman correctly spelled Love and Saint Peter welcomed her into Heaven.. About a year later, Saint Peter came to the woman and asked her to watch the Gates of Heaven for him that day. While the woman was guarding the Gates of Heaven, her husband arrived. I'm surprised to see you, the woman said. How have you been? Oh, I've been doing pretty well since you died, her husband told her. I married the beautiful young nurse who took care of you while you were ill. And then I won the multi-state lottery. I sold the little house you and I lived in and bought a huge mansion. And my wife and I travelled all around the world. We were on vacation in Cancun and I went water skiing today. I fell and hit my head, and here I am. What a bummer! How do I get in?

Re: [FairfieldLife] Smooth Jazz 94.7 LA -The Wave
Interesting! Love Kenny G Musical Starstreams is good 'valium' too I alternate between the two...and a little of this and that including some rap Smooth Jazz is like Valium. The term of course is the opposite of hard jazz which many jazz musicians played. One of the kings of Smooth Jazz is Kenny G who back in the '70's used to sneak into the DoubleTree Inn in Renton (near Seattle) as a high school kid to listen to the jazz trio I played in. Much of this style of music started out as fusion jazz back in the 70's with Creed Taylor, Deodato, etc. who did a commercialized version of jazz with some RB influence. Prior to that if you had sprung the 13th, 11th and sharp 9th chords sprinkled throughout the smooth jazz of today you would have been accused of playing dischords to which the witty musician would usually reply which chord? Dis chord or dat chord? BTW, Valium is based on the chemical structure of valerian root or jatamansi (the Indian variety).

Re: [FairfieldLife] JUST TO REMIND YOU OF WHAT I SAID BEFORE
What you have fer breakfast? People seem to think that Barack Obama is going to save this country from ruin during this crisis were in. But they are going to be very disappointed because Obama will die suddenly and mysteriously after only a few days in office (first 100 days maybe) without really acomplishing much of anything. Other than to raise taxes. The bible says in Rev. 17:10 that there are 7 kings 5 are fallen and 1 is(present tense). I figured out who the first 6 kings were when Geoge W. Bush was President(During his frist term) and i realilized that there were still 5 former pres. still alive at that point in time. They were Ford, Carter, Reagan, Bush, Clinton. And of course Geoge W. would be #6 who is spoken of in the present tense because of course he was the president then at that point in time, and still is untill Obama becomes king #7 on Jan. 20th. I saw in 1 of my visions where my wife said to some other women the president is allready dead. In the vision she was in Fargo, N. Dak. and she was looking in the direction of a plane that had just taken off from the airport in Fargo. I thing that plane might have been airforce 1. Acording to the catholic bible in Dan. 11 the person who is king or pres. just before the anti-christ comes along will die during a crises. Which is where we are now and its probably going to get worse. I started my web page in 2004. www.prophetelijahsp eaks.freewebspac e.com read the black print.I knew Who the frist 6 kings were. And i knew that whoever became pres. after Geoge W. Bush would be the 7th king. I thought for sure that people would be smart enough to see that Bush was wrong in going to war in Iraq. And that they would never reelect him, but i was wrong. And after the election i thought forsure that they would wake up and come to there senses and impeach him. But i was wrong again. But now that Obama has been elected i finely know for sure that he is the 7th king the bible speaks of and the 1 my wife spoke of in my vision. Also The angel Gabriel told me that Jimmy Carter is the anti-christ. So he will be the 8th king and is also one of the previous 7 kings as it says in Rev.17:10. Gabriel also told me that Jimmy Carter was going to change his name and divorce his wife.

Main backer and lobbyist is Monsanto – chemical and genetic engineering giant corporation (and Cargill, ADM, and about 35 other related agri-giants). This bill will require organic farms to use specific fertilizers and poisonous insect sprays dictated by the newly formed agency to make sure there is no danger to the public food supply. This will include backyard gardens that grow food only for a family and not for sales. If this passes then NO more heirloom clean seeds, but only Monsanto genetically altered seeds that are now showing up with unexpected diseases in humans.

[FairfieldLife] THE CRIMINALIZATION OF EVERYDAY LIFE
In LA, this happens, as I saw it many times - stupid stuff! Arhata Are anyone's days entirely free of offenses that can get you arrested? THE CRIMINALIZATION OF EVERYDAY LIFE By Robert Neuwirth I spent 24 hours in the slammer the other day. My crime? Well, the police couldn't tell me when they locked me up. The prosecutor and judge couldn't either, when I was arraigned the following day. I found out for myself when I researched the matter a few days after being released: I had been cited for walking my dog off the leash – once, six years ago. Welcome to the ugly underside of the zero-tolerance era, where insignificant rule violations get inflated into criminal infractions. Here's how it worked with me: a gaggle of transit cops stopped me after they saw me walk between two subway cars on my way to work. This, they told me, was against the rules. They asked for ID and typed my name into a hand-held computer. Up came that old citation that I didn't know about and they couldn't tell me about. I was immediately handcuffed and brought to the precinct. There, I waited in a holding cell, then was fingerprinted (post-CSI memo: they now take the fingers, the thumbs, the palms, and the sides of both hands) and had the contents of my shoulder bag inventoried. I could hardly believe it: I was being arrested without ever having committed a crime. I was held overnight in the Midtown North Precinct lock-up (shoelaces and belt confiscated, meals courtesy of the McDonald's dollar menu). In the morning, my fellow convicts and I were led, chain-gang style, to the Manhattan Community Court next door. The judge there dismissed the charge against me – because no one ever does time for that kind of crime. A few days later, at Brooklyn's central court, my warrant was lifted for time served – again because no one is ever locked up for breaking the leash law. If the cops had simply written me a ticket, I would have paid it, and I would have also had to pay to vacate my outstanding warrant. But by cuffing me and holding me overnight, the city spent quite a bit of money (it took two police officers approximately six hours each just to arrest and process me), while the fines assessed against me were rescinded. While I was inside, I was astounded by the kinds of things that take up police and court time. A couple of people nabbed for being in various parks after dark. One of them was walking his dog. Two young men accused of riding their bicycles on the sidewalk. Three people arrested for sleeping in a subway station. My roommate in the lock-up was an articulate and self-aware 60-year-old whose sin was that he bought a bottle of booze and had taken a swig on the street. In the cell next to us: two costumed Mariachis busted for busking on the subway. They were repeat offenders. Their weapons: a guitar and an accordion. With zero tolerance, we have finally done it: We have criminalized everyday life. After all, in the course of their life people sometimes ride their bikes on the sidewalks. And once upon a time not too long ago, it was normal to go into the parks after dark. My friends and I did all the time, particularly if we had time to kill before or after the opera, the symphony, or a jazz or rock concert. We walked brazenly between subway cars. Some of us even – horror of horrors! – played music on the street or in the subway without a license. And, though my parents would not be happy to know it even now, we sometimes drank beer in public – making sure, in an important but legally meaningless gesture, that the bottle was in a paper bag. If I did any of this on a regular basis today, I'd probably be considered a behavioral recidivist and sent to Riker's Island. I can laugh away my time in a cell—my life suddenly turned into an update of Alice's Restaurant. But I get angry when I think of kids in their teens or 20s being treated the way I was. I'm not against hard time for criminal, violent or anti-social behavior. But slapping young people behind bars and giving them an arrest record simply because the normal things they do are trivial rule violations is not only wasteful, it's downright criminal.

Jewish Buddhism If there is no self, whose arthritis is this? Be here now. Be someplace else later. Is that so complicated? Drink tea and nourish life. With the first sip ... joy. With the second ... satisfaction. With the third, peace. With the fourth, a Danish. Wherever you go, there you are. Your luggage is another story. Accept misfortune as a blessing. Do not wish for perfect health, Or a life without problems. What would you talk about? The journey of a thousand miles Begins with a single oy. There is no escaping karma In a previous life, you never called, you never wrote, you never visited. And whose fault was that? Zen is not easy. It takes effort to attain nothingness. And then what do you have? Bupkes. The Tao does not speak. The Tao does not blame. The Tao does not take sides. The Tao has no expectations. The Tao demands nothing of others. The Tao is not Jewish. Breathe in. Breathe out. Breathe in. Breathe out. Forget this and attaining Enlightenment will be the least of your problems. Let your mind be as a floating cloud. Let your stillness be as the wooded glen. And sit up straight. You'll never meet the Buddha with such rounded shoulders. Be patient and achieve all things. Be impatient and achieve all things faster. To Find the Buddha, look within. Deep inside you are ten thousand flowers. Each flower blossoms ten thousand times. Each blossom has ten thousand petals. You might want to see a specialist. To practice Zen and the art of Jewish motorcycle maintenance, do the following: Get rid of the motorcycle. What were you thinking? Be aware of your body. Be aware of your perceptions. Keep in mind that not every physical sensation is a symptom of a terminal illness. The Torah says, Love thy neighbor as thyself. The Buddha says there is no self. So, maybe you are off the hook. Though only your skin, sinews, and bones remain, though your blood and flesh dry up and wither away, yet shall you meditate and not stir until you have attained full Enlightenment.

I believe that many in the TM movement have turned basic TM into a religion, one that has something but not everything to do with its origins *as* a religious technique. I believe that the environment of the *TMO* is very definitely religious in nature currently, and is actively seeking to hide that. Because it seems that for a few years, at least, you were having the experience of self-discovery as a result of the practice. I was pursuing my own self discovery while practicing the TM technique. I am not con- vinced that all of the discovery happened as a result of that practice. In fact, I think that a lot of it just happened, similar to the way that shit just happens. *At the time*, I would have credited TM for those experiences; now I would not and do not. I am trying to be as precise as I possibly can here. What if you had learned TM and continued to meditate but never became a TM teacher or went any further with the techniques or teachings? Would you ever have come to be uncomfortable with the practice because you felt it was religious? If I had never become a TM teacher, I am fairly confident that I would have given up on the TM technique at the five-year mark. One of my reasons for attending TM Teacher Training was to either jumpstart the tech- nique such that I began perceived sufficient benefits from TM to continue practicing it, or quit altogether. The jumpstart worked, for a number of years, but then when I no longer perceived sufficient benefit, I quit. I did NOT stop TM because I thought it was religious. I stopped primarly because as far as I could tell it was doing nothing to further my self discovery. Secondarily, I guit because as a TM teacher I was being asked to lie and do other things on a regular basis that I found to be con- trary to my own ethics and repulsive to my values. Thirdly, I quit because the TM movement was clearly going in a direction I did not want to go -- towards becoming more of a cult, and away from openness and transparency. The question of whether that direction was in the direction of becoming more of a religion would not and did not occur to me. It was just no longer an organization I wanted to be associated with. If you had stuck with basic TM but then read the translation of the puja years later and been told the mantras were the names of Hindu deities, would that have soured you on the practice? No. Not me personally. It would have soured some friends who *started* from a fairly religious background; I did not. At the time, all I would have cared about was that it seemed to work. I now see that seeming to work period as more of a *contrast* between my life up till then, practicing no form of meditation reg- ularly, and then practicing *some* form of meditation regularly. *Of course* I felt some benefits at the start. When I stopped feeling those benefits, I moved on and found other techniques from which the sense of them working and providing continuing benefits did not fade and has not faded in any of the years since. Would it have become less about self-discovery for you? No. It would have been irrelevant. But it would not have been irrelevant to, say, the former Catholic priest who shared a trailer with me at Humboldt. If the origin and the nature of the mantras had not been hidden from him, he would never have begun TM. Some months later, he *did* learn about those origins, and dropped TM like a hot potato. He also felt betrayed and lied to. That's because IMO he *was* betrayed and lied to, by people like yourself who were trying to protect him from knowledge he didn't need to know. You say, The vast majority of religions -- modern and ancient -- strove to *prevent* that kind of inner exploration rather than facilitate it. Would it be fair to say Hinduism is one of the minority of religions that still strives to facilitate inner exploration? Absolutely not, not in my opinion. Mainstream Hinduism *in India* probably attempts to limit and prevent the mystical experience as much as the Catholic Church does, and stresses faith more than anything else. But many of the off- spring of Indian Hinduism, transplanted to the West, found that Westerners were more

[FairfieldLife] Amazing Shipping Container Houses
Invented more than five decades ago, the modern shipping container is the linchpin in our global distribution network of products. In the containers go toys from China, textiles from India, grain from America, and cars from Germany. In go electronics, chocolate, and cheese. While a number of resourceful people have converted shipping containers into make-shift shelters at the margin of society for years, architects and green designers are also increasingly turning to the strong, cheap boxes as source building blocks. Shipping containers can be readily modified with a range of creature comforts and can be connected and stacked to create modular, efficient spaces for a fraction of the cost, labor, and resources of more conventional materials. Discover some of the exciting possibilities of shipping container architecture, from disaster relief shelters to luxury condos, vacation homes, and off-the-grid adventurers. See what makes them green as well as cutting edge. (Photo: Kool-Kini / Flickr ) De Maria Design Redondo Beach House With its modern lines and appealing spaces, the award-winning Redondo Beach House by De Maria Design turns heads. The luxury beach-side showpiece was built from eight prefabricated, recycled steel shipping containers, along with some traditional building materials. According to the architects, the modified containers are nearly indestructible, as well as resistant to mold, fire, and termites. Seventy percent of the building was efficiently assembled in a shop, saving time, money, and resources. One of the containers can even sport a pool! The lessons learned from Redondo Beach House are being incorporated into a line of more affordable, accessible designs, soon available as Logical Homes. (Photo: Urban Space Management) London's Container City Conceived by Urban Space Management, London's Container City first sprang up in the heart of the Docklands in 2001. It took just five months to complete the original 12 work studios, at a height of three stories. Shortly after that a fourth floor of studios and living apartments was added. Container City was designed to be low cost, as well as environmentally friendly. Recycled materials made up 80% of building supplies. Architect Nicholas Lacey and partners and engineer Buro Happold used component pieces to build up adaptable living and work spaces. (Photo: Kool-Kini / Flickr ) Container City II Container City I was a success, and in2002, Urban Space Management added an addition, dubbed Container City II. Reaching five stories high, Container City II is connected to its earlier iteration via walkways. It also boasts an elevator and full disabled access, as well as 22 studios.

The Port-a-Bach system from New Zealand's Atelier Workshop might be a good fit. Costing around $55,000, Port-a-Bach sleeps two adults and two children comfortably, in a dwelling that folds up into a fully enclosed steel shell. It comes with large internal storage cupboards and shelves; a stainless steel kitchen; bathroom with shower, sink and composting toilet; bunk beds and dressing room. Fabric screens allow you to shape internal space, as well as shelter the outdoor deck area. Bach (pronounced Batch) is Kiwi slang for Bachelor Pad, and refers to the many small cabins that dot the famously picturesque country.

The small home is based on a standard shipping container, and is said to be suitable for a family of four, plus a pet, to live off the grid in comfort and style. The cabin folds up to look like any old shipping container, and can be sent via rail, truck, ship, airplane, or even helicopter. When you're ready to rest your bones, the cabin quickly unfolds to 480 square feet of living space, with a range of creature comforts.

Re: [FairfieldLife] The TM Is Not A Religion Religion
A group professing consciousness and preset ways to use certain techniques, be they prayer, acceptance of any doctrine, rules beyond common sense, meditation, etc. that creates a sense of 'unwelcomeness' to reasonable strangers who come for participation, are 'religions'. Denial of being this by participants of a group is characteristic of religions. This of course is predicated on the premise that 'religions' are 'undesirable' to be part of. Religiousness is very different than things like: belief in God, worship of a Messiah figure be they called any number of other names. Loving any head of a group exclusive of others of 'the same status' is not religiousness but again leans to cultism. True consciousness sees things very different than members or followers of any doctrine or group and does not claim to be part of anything. I am SO bored with this topic I can't chime in with much more than a rant. I don't see how anyone with an ounce of integrity can *possibly* be arguing that the TMO does not teach religiously- based ideas. But I do understand WHY people don't have that ounce of integrity. They've been taught that when it comes to fundamental points of TM dogma that the ONLY thing that matters is not only following them but defending them. And one of the strongest and MOST drummed- into-people' s-heads pieces of dogma during their TM instruction is TM Is Not A Religion. It's said in every Introductory Lecture, *whether the subject comes up on its own or not*, it's said during each night of the three nights of checking, *whether the subject comes up on its own or not*, and it's said pretty much every time after that that the subject of religion comes up. For years. Ad absurdum. This is arguably **THE** most fundamental piece of TM dogma, probably repeated more often than Thou shalt not strain on the mantra. And after all that much repetition, people just lose all sense of perspective about it. The sub- ject comes up, and they become mindless evangel- ists for the TM Is Not A Religion Religion. They'll say ANYTHING rather than admit what MOST of them know to be the truth, that OF COURSE all of the TM dogma is based on Hindu dogma. They'll lie, they'll deny, they'll come with up excuses, they'll obfuscate, they'll attempt to distract, they'll do ANYTHING rather than violate this First Commandment. And personally I'm getting a little tired of it. There seems to me to be NO QUESTION that teaching TM *as it is taught now* in American school systems violates the Constitution. TM Teachers are just not CAPABLE of teaching the basic technique 1) without a religious puja, and 2) without all of the directly-derived- from- Hinduism explanations of what is really happening when you meditate during the three nights of checking, and afterwards. The ONLY way to keep this essentially religious dogma from being taught in schools is to not allow it to be taught there in the first place. We simply cannot TRUST TM Teachers to leave out the parts of the dogma that are directly derived from Hindu thought when they present the three nights of checking, let alone afterwards, as they try to suck these students into Advanced Tech- niques and the Siddhis. And *everyone* here knows that that's exactly what they will do. It is EXACTLY the same situation that caused Thomas Jefferson to write one of his most remem- bered quotes, the one that graces the Jefferson Memorial in Washington. This quote was written in a letter to a friend discussing an attempt by Christians to teach *their* dogma in a school system. In that particular case, *they* promised not to teach anything explicitly religious either, and NO ONE BELIEVED THEM. NO ONE SHOULD BELIEVE THE TMO EITHER. Instead, believe Thomas Jefferson. He had the right idea: I have sworn upon the altar of God eternal hostility against every from of tyranny over the mind of man. Jefferson was talking about *preventing* the teach- ing of religion in schools in America. The principle still stands. It stands in the case of Christianity, and it stands in the case of the TM Is Not A Religion Religion. IMO, of course...

[FairfieldLife] Baruch Spinoza: Heretic Extraordinaire
[StruggleWithJudaism] Marci Baruch Spinoza: Heretic Extraordinaire One of the most significant figures in the history of philosophy, Spinoza was excommunicated by the Jewish community. Spinoza is an important figure in early modern Jewish history because he used modern critical methods to question Jewish tradition and authority. His rebellion earned him excommunication from the Jewish community; he lived the remainder of his life apart from the Jewish community, but never renounced his Judaism. In this way, he was a sort of proto-secularist. Reprinted with permission from The Jewish Religion: A Companion, published by Oxford University Press. Spinoza Excommunicated Spinoza's approach and his general independent attitude to religion awakened the suspicions of both the Calvinists and the Jewish community in Amsterdam. On 27 July 1656, Spinoza was placed under the ban (herem) by the Amsterdam community. The ban, written in Portuguese, is still preserved in the archives of the Amsterdam community. The pronouncement preceding the ban reads: The chiefs of the council make known to you that having long known of evil opinions and acts of Baruch de Spinoza, they have endeavored by various means and promises to turn him from evil ways. Not being able to find any remedy, but on the contrary receiving every day more information about the abominable heresies practiced and taught by him, and about the monstrous acts committed by him, having this from many trustworthy witnesses who have deposed and borne witness on all this in the presence of said Spinoza, who has been convicted; all this having been examined in the presence of the Rabbis, the council decided, with the advice of the Rabbi, that the said Spinoza should be excommunicated and cut off from the Nation of Israel. It has often been noted that, in view of Christian opposition to Spinoza's opinions, the Jewish community had little option in dissociating itself from Spinoza's heresies. After he had been placed under the ban, Spinoza settled in various other Dutch cities, ending his days in The Hague where he lived an independent life earning his living by polishing lenses. Spinoza on the Bible Spinoza, in his Tractatus Theologico‑politicus, published in Hamburg in 1670, relies on Abraham IbnEzra's cryptic remarks regarding passages in the Pentateuch that must have been added after Moses, to put forward his view that Pentateuch was not compiled by Moses but [the prophet] Ezra…The belief that Moses wrote the Pentateuch at the dictation of God was shared by Christians as well as Jews in the seventeenth century. Small wonder, then, that Spinoza's views were seen at that time as rank heresy of the greatest danger to faith. Biblical criticism in the nineteenth century relied on Spinoza to develop the whole subject further. Many Jews today accept general principles of biblical criticism and reinterpret their faith accordingly, so that for them, Spinoza's view that Ezra is the true author of the Pentateuch is unacceptable on scholarly grounds, but the question of heresy does not enter into the picture. Spinoza on God It is quite otherwise with Spinoza's ideas about God as developed in his Ethics, published posthumously. Here Spinoza's views, which, it must be admitted, are difficult fully to comprehend, seem to suggest that there is no God as the Supreme Being, only as a philosophical idea, God corresponding to the universe in totality. Spinoza's tight and carefully worked‑out scheme is deterministic with no apparent room for the doctrine of free will and, for him, there is no longer any need for Jews to remain a separate people who worship God in a special way. For Spinoza, God did not create nature but is nature, and neither intellect nor will can be ascribed to God. This, at least, is the usual understanding of Spinoza's pantheism, although a few scholars have interpreted his thought as rather more in accordance with traditional theism. In his lifetime Spinoza was accused of being an atheist. In a letter to Jacob Ostens (1625‑78), Lambert Van Velthuysen (1622‑85) openly states that in his view Spinoza's opinions are nothing more than a disguised form of atheism: He [Spinoza] acknowledges God and confesses Him to be the maker and founder of the universe. But he declares, that the form, appearance, and order of the world are evidently as necessary as the Nature of God, and the eternal truths, which he holds are established apart from the decision of God. Therefore he also expressly declares that all things come to pass by invincible necessity and inevitable fate ... He does this in accordance with his principles. For what room can there be for a last judgement? Or what expectation of reward or of punishment, when all things are declared to emanate from God with inevitable necessity, or rather, when he declares that this whole universe is God? For I fear that our author is not very

Re: [FairfieldLife] Eating Too Much Red Meat May Shorten Life
Wouldn't it be a better world if men ate twice as much red meat? Is the value of men over rated anyway? Could be a way of reducing the male population. MONDAY, March 23 (HealthDay News) -- Diets high in red meat and in processed meat shorten life span not just from cancer and heart disease but from Alzheimer's, stomach ulcers and an array of other conditions as well, a U.S. National Cancer Institute study has found. In fact, reducing meat consumption to the amount eaten by the bottom 20 percent seen in the study would save 11 percent of men's lives and 16 percent of women's, according to the study. The consumption of red meat was associated with a modest increase in total mortality, said Rashmi Sinha, lead author of the study in the March 23 issue of Archives of Internal Medicine. This fits together with the findings of the American Institute for Cancer Research and the World Cancer Research Fund and the American Cancer Society, which recommend limiting the consumption of red meat, added Sinha, who is a senior investigator with the nutrition epidemiological branch in the cancer epidemiology and genetics division at the Cancer Institute. This is something new in the sense of mortality. Previous studies of red meat had mostly found an association with cancer incidence. The authors pointed out that many pooled studies had been conducted by vegetarian groups. Last year, U.S. National Cancer Institute researchers reported that a quarter-pound hamburger or a small pork chop eaten daily could put you at increased risk for a variety of cancers. The message from the latest study echoes that finding: The more red meat and processed meat you eat, the greater your risk for dying of cancer. But the American Meat Institute objected to the conclusion, saying in a statement that the study relied on notoriously unreliable self-reporting about what was eaten in the preceding five years. This imprecise approach is like relying on consumers' personal characterization of their driving habits in prior years in determining their likelihood of having an accident in the future. Meat is an excellent source of zinc, iron, B12 and other essential vitamins and minerals, the statement continued. The U.S. Dietary Guidelines say to eat a balanced diet that includes lean meat. In this way, you derive a wide array of nutrients from many different sources. It's the best return on a nutritional investment you can get. Dr. Michael Thun, vice president emeritus of epidemiology and surveillance research at the American Cancer Society, however, said the study's findings support previous studies and also support the American Cancer Society nutrition guidelines. Those guidelines include choosing fish, poultry or beans instead of beef, pork and lamb; choosing leaner cuts of meat; and baking, broiling or poaching meat rather than frying or charbroiling it. For the study, the researchers looked at what more than a half-million people, ages 50 to 71, were eating over the span of a decade. Participants tended to be white and educated with fewer smokers and more vegetable-and- fruit eaters than in the general population. During that time, more than 71,000 people died. Men and women eating the highest amount of red meat were found to have a 31 percent and 36 percent, respectively, higher risk of dying from any cause than those eating the least amount. Women eating the most processed meat were 25 percent more likely to die early than those eating the least of this type of meat, while men had a 16 percent increased risk, the study found. Causes of death for those in the study included diabetes, Alzheimer's disease, ulcers, pneumonia, influenza, liver disease, HIV, tuberculosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and more. Dying from cancer also was more likely among those eating the most red meat: 22 percent higher for men, 20 percent for women. The risk for death from cancer increased 12 percent for men and 11 percent for women who ate the greatest amount of processed meat. Similarly, the risk of dying from cardiovascular disease was higher by 27 percent for men and 50 percent for women; for processed red meat, the risk was 9 percent higher for men and 38 percent higher for women. However, people who ate the most white meat showed a lower risk of dying.. The authors also noted a 24 percent higher risk of dying from heart problems among men who had never smoked and who ate more white meat. Women faced a 20 percent higher risk. Meat contains many carcinogens as well as saturated fat, which might explain the increased mortality risk, the authors stated. Dr. Jay Brooks, chairman of hematology/oncology at Ochsner Health System in Baton Rouge, La., described the study's findings as provocative. The question is how much of it is the meat and how much is the extra calories, Brooks said. Calories per se are a strong

And now, with their eyes open, they saw the oil, the vile feces-colored smear across the glaciated ridge faces, the poisonous bathtub ring that ran for miles and miles at the high tide level. And it's still there. Less for sure. But twenty years later. IT'S STILL THERE, GODDAMNIT. And I want YOU, dear reader, to stick your hand in it. I want YOU, President Obama, to stick your hand in it before you blithely fulfill your Palin-esque campaign promise for a little more offshore drilling. *** Tuesday marks the 20th Anniversary of the Exxon Valdez grounding and the smearing of 1,200 miles of Alaska's coastline with its oil. It also marks the 20th Anniversary of a lie. Lots of lies: catalogued in a four-volume investigation of the disaster; four volumes you'll never see. I wrote that report, with my team of investigators working with the Natives preparing fraud and racketeering charges against Exxon. You'll never see the report because Exxon lawyers threatened the Natives, Mention the f-word [fraud] and you'll never get a dime of compensation to clean up the villages. The Natives agreed to drop the fraud charge -- and Exxon stiffed them on the money. You're surprised, right? *** Doubtless, for the 20th Anniversary of the Great Spill, the media will schlep out that old story that the tanker ran aground because its captain was drunk at the wheel. Bullshit. Yes, the captain was three sheets to the wind -- but sleeping it off below-decks. The ship was in the hands of the third mate who was driving blind. That is, the Exxon Valdez' Raycas radar system was turned off; turned off because it was busted and had been busted since its maiden voyage. Exxon didn't want to spend the cash to fix it. So the man at the helm, electronically blindfolded, drove it up onto the reef. So why the story of the drunken skipper? Because it lets Exxon off the hook: Calling it a case of drunk driving turns the disaster into a case of human error, not corporate penny-pinching greed. Indeed, the human error tale was the hook used by the Bush-stacked Supreme Court to slash the punitive damages awarded against Exxon by 90%, from $5 billion, to half a billion for 30,000 Natives and fishermen. Chief Justice John Roberts erased almost all of the payment due with the la-dee-dah comment, What more can a corporation do? Well, here's what they could have done: Besides fix the radar, Exxon could have set out equipment to contain the spill. Containing a spill is actually quite simple. Stick a rubber skirt around the oil slick and suck it back up. The law requires it and Exxon promised it. So, when the tanker hit, where was the rubber skirt and where was the sucker? Answer: The rubber skirt, called boom -- was a fiction. Exxon promised to have it sitting right there near the Native village at Bligh Reef. The oil company fulfilled that promised the cheap way: they lied. And the lie was engineered at the very top. After the spill, we got our hands on a series of memos describing a secret

[FairfieldLife] Love the Compassion of the Pope
In the mid-1980s, Pope Jon Paul 11 visited a squalid barrio in Tumaco, Columbia. He was dressed to the holy hilt in his finest white vestments. The cap, solid gold cross and Pontiff ducked through a hole cut into tin sheets and plastic and entered a shack that was the home of an unemployed peasant farmer, his pregnant wife and a half-dozen emaciated kids. The lean-to structure and the family of hopelessness within were typical of the crowded barrios he had seen on his tour, which was little more than a cesspool of poverty and violence, a dump site of shattered dreams. No doubt the Pope was a seasoned observer of the sight of many countless children in slums with their stick limbs and swelling bellies, playing in the open sewers. While in the hut, he tried to speak soft words of comfort over a cacophony of babies crying for want of food, as they sucked at breasts run dry from overwork and overbreeding. The stench of dysentery shriveled the papal nostrils. The hollow and awestruck gaze of the farmer and his tattered tots made him weep. He re-emerged from the shack, displaying tears like shining medals to the tropical sun and the relentless flashing eyes of cameras. He declared with a moving voice, to the press and the world at large, I bless the people in this home As he left the area, a papal aide was seen slipping $300 into the Columbian farmer's hand. Upon the Pope's return from the South American crusade, he stressed with even more righteous certainty than ever before that all birth control and contraceptive methods are a sin.

[FairfieldLife] Jim Hightower - Tax Code
THE RIDICULOUS CLASS BIAS IN AMERICA'S TAX CODE Wednesday, March 18, 2009 | Posted by Jim Hightower The rich truly are different from you and me, for they are treated differently. I'm not talking about the merely affluent, but about the ultra-rich – those Wall Street elites who annually pocket tens of millions of dollars each through such financial entities as hedge funds and private equity firms. While you and I earn the bulk of our money from wages (or ordinary income, as economists so snobbishly call it), the richy-rich don't receive anything as pedestrian as income. No, no, they have gains. Aside from the snoot factor, what's the difference? The tax code. Our ordinary income is taxed by the feds at a rate of up to 35 percent. The very rich, however, who haul in most of their money from capital gains and stock gains, pay only 15 percent on this income. What's at work here is another big difference between us and them. They have lobbyists and are able to make impressive levels of campaign contributions to key politicians – so, the tax code has been deliberately perverted to benefit them. Oh, tut-tut, sniff these swell ones, we take big investment risks with our money and we fuel America's entrepreneurial spirit. So we are, in fact, special and deserve preferential tax treatment. Good grief, Daddy Warbucks, spare us your bloated sense of entitlement. Mostly, you're risking other people's money, and mostly you're buying up existing companies, which you then cannibalize by firing workers and selling off corporate parts to fatten your take. Nothing noble about it. Income is income, and the superrich deserve no special break just because they make their money from money. As Warren Buffett has asked, why should billionaire investors like him pay a lower tax rate than our receptionists do or our cleaning ladies? It's a question of fundamental fairness.

[FairfieldLife] Re: Bailout - sometimes Moore is better
Good News!
#yiv1013870891 p {margin:0;}There's a new letter on MichaelMoore.com and it has
some new insight into the movie. It's going to be focusing on the Wall Street
Bailout or the financial crisis in the USA going on right now. The title of the
movie could be 'Bailout' judging by the letter.
Here it is in full:
Friends,
I am in the middle of shooting my next movie and I am looking for a few brave
people who work on Wall Street or in the financial industry to come forward and
share with me what they know. Based on those who have already contacted me, I
believe there are a number of you who know the real deal about the abuses
that have been happening. You have information that the American people need to
hear. I am humbly asking you for a moment of courage, to be a hero and help me
expose the biggest swindle in American history.
All correspondence with me will be kept confidential. Your identity will be
protected and you will decide to what extent you wish to participate in telling
the greatest crime story ever told.
The important thing here is for you to step up as an American and do your duty
of shedding some light on this financial collapse. A few good people have
already come forward, which leads me to believe there are many more of you out
there who know what's going on. Here's your chance to let your fellow citizens
in on the truth.
If you have any info that would help, please contact me at my private email
address: bail...@michaelmoore.com.
For the rest of you on my email list who don't work in the financial industry,
you're probably wondering, What the heck is this all about? I thought he said
he was making a romantic comedy!
Well, I just can't say much right now. I'm sure you can understand why. One
thing I can tell you is that you're gonna like this movie when I'm done with
it. Oh, yeah...
So, again, if you work for a bank, a brokerage firm or an insurance company --
or if you have seen things or heard things that you believe the American people
have a right to know -- please contact me at bail...@michaelmoore.com.
Thank you in advance for your help!
Yours,

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Have a Very Good Morning
Edg Appreciate the comments. Most of the stuff I write is 'old', usually an hour or so before you get it. As most may, I have multiple reasons for 'posting' both here and anywhere. Always I look at reaction/response or, none as it often adds to things I write. Yesterday is an example - I was emailing back and forth with a woman on a Muslim sight who spent lots of time judging with no basis for it (in fact, she incited todays 'Pinnocchio' one), and yesterday, her reactions 'popped out' one on my views on religion called, Religions Are Dead, which oddly was published yesterday on Rense.com - so it's always an unknown what will come up. Maybe I'll write something on 'fresh'! Cheers, Arhata Oh, and I'm not a fan of most who follow ANY guru/master/whatever (incliuding Osho) without them standing 'alone'. Arhata, You do sometimes submit fresh words, but so much of what you post seems dated. Reason: sue me, but the fact that you cut and paste and do not correct the errors due to translating your text's formatting into Yahoo speak screams to me that you're troll-posting your previous writings with no reason other than to be in the spotlight. Also, you always have that damned date in your signature so my knee jerk is to assume the post came from that era -- again, sue me, but it's a turn off. Why don't you just post all your stuff to the files section and be done with it? Meanwhile, when you do respond and interact, I find you interesting -- not often on a topic that grabs me -- but interesting. You've got a tee shirt from paying some dues -- probably from being abused by Osho's group morals, so there's some wisdom to be tapped inside ya, but most of the time you come off as someone shouting from the back of the crowd just to hear his own voice -- a sin I have committed often enough that I'm an expert on this, so heed my advice -- if you engage us with fresh stuff, we'll be able to read you in context and that will be true intimacy.

After weeks of economic doom and gloom, the Obama administration is now singing a slightly different tune, MacCallum said. She then played clips of Romer and other administration officials making seemingly positive comments about the current state of the economy. One of the clips was of Vice President Biden saying, The fundamentals of the economy are strong!

The Biden statement was actually from last September — during the presidential campaign — when he was quoting Sen. John McCain (R-AZ). Here's what Biden really said: Ladies and gentlemen, I believe that's why John McCain could say with a straight face as recently as this morning and this is a quote, the fundamentals of the economy are strong.

Sonow no ones in charge of the world? The Elders of Islam are moving up? Arhata Elders of Zion to Retire Backward: A Purim Spoof By Anthony Weiss Published March 04, 2009, issue of March 13, 2009. Print Email Share Author Archive Purim The Elders of Zion, the venerable and shadowy Jewish organization that controls the international banking industry, news media and Hollywood, has announced that it is disbanding so that members can retire to Florida and live out their golden years on the golf course. We had a good run, said one senior Elder, reminiscing over old photographs of world leaders in his musty, wood-paneled office at an undisclosed location. Maybe we ran the world for just a little too long. Anyway, now it's Obama's problem. After a humiliating year left most of its financial holdings, as well as the entire civilized world, on the verge of collapse, the organization has re-defined its mission in terms of bridge games and making it to restaurants for the Early Bird Special. BACKWARD ASSOCIATION The Wild Bunch: The Elders of Zion, pictured here in younger, more rambunctious days, are hanging up their fezzes and heading south. Noted Morris (third from left), `The only thing I'm looking to dominate now is a Piña Colada.' The announcement comes after a year in which many of the Elders' most prized institutions suffered disheartening failures. The vaunted global banking system, which lay at the heart of Jewish world domination for almost two centuries, collapsed with astonishing rapidity, requiring trillions of dollars in bailout funds. The newspaper industry, through which the Elders have controlled world opinion, is in shambles, with prominent papers declaring bankruptcy and forcing millions of readers to form their own opinions. And, in the unkindest cut, Hollywood suffered the humiliation of losing the Oscar for Best Picture to Indian film Slumdog Millionaire. The organization' s reputation for financial probity had also taken a hit amidst rumors of billions in losses in private Kalooki games against Sheikh Hamad bin `Isa of Bahrain. According to inside sources, the organization also lost close to $1 trillion with disgraced investor Bernard Madoff. Even before this past year, though, the Elders were facing hard times as they struggled to stay relevant and attract young members. The organization has tried to project a more youthful image, setting up a Facebook page and founding a new Hipsters of Zion youth division, which has sponsored a number of singles nights. But youngsters haven't been interested. World domination just doesn't resonate with the younger generation of Jews, said Marvin Tobman, a professor of non-profit management at San Diego State University and expert on Jewish communal life. They want the fun of fixing the world, not the responsibility of running it. These recent troubles have worried even some of the Elders' sharpest critics. I always used to complain that Jews ran the world, said Reginald Weber, author of Zionists and Zookeepers: The Unholy Alliance. But now I'm starting to worry that nobody's in charge.

Arhata Jewish World Review March 16, 2009 / 20 Adar 5769 The Protocols of the Drinkers of Coffee By Melanie Phillips If this were only a joke! What we are up against within the Islamic world is quite simply a wholesale negation of reason; nothing less http://www.JewishWo rldReview. com | From Egypt, further evidence that the Islamist hatred of the Jews is not caused by Israel's behaviour or even its existence. It's caused by... hatred of the Jews. Here, Egyptian cleric Muhammad Hussein Ya'qoub raves: If the Jews left Palestine to us, would we start loving them? Of course not. We will never love them. Absolutely not. The Jews are infidels – not because I say so, and not because they are killing Muslims, but because Allah said: 'The Jews say that Uzair is the son of Allah, and the Christians say that Christ is the son of Allah. These are the words from their mouths. They imitate the sayings of the disbelievers before. May Allah fight them. How deluded they are.' It is Allah who said that they are infidels. Your belief regarding the Jews should be, first, that they are infidels, and second, that they are enemies. They are enemies not because they occupied Palestine. They would have been enemies even if they did not occupy a thing. Allah said: 'You shall find the strongest men in enmity to the disbelievers [sic] to be the Jews and the polytheists. ' Third, you must believe that the Jews will never stop fighting and killing us. They [fight] not for the sake of land and security, as they claim, but for the sake of their religion: 'And they will not cease fighting you until they turn you back you're your religion, if they can.' This is it. We must believe that our fighting with the Jews is eternal, and it will not end until the final battle – and this is the fourth point. You must believe that we will fight, defeat, and annihilate them, until not a single Jew remains on the face of the Earth. Egypt, let us not forget, is a `moderate' Arab state that has a peace agreement with Israel. It is nevertheless a major source of barking-mad Jewish demonisation in the Arab world. Here is Egyptian Cleric Salama Abd Al-Qawi warning Muslims against the Protocols of the Elders of Zion – the notorious Czarist forged claim that the Jews covertly rule the world — and many US companies : They [the Jews]began conspiring to annihilate the Islamic and Arab nation, to plunder its resources, and to destroy its youth. Regretfully, the plots they hatched are being implemented today in detail. One of their conspiracies, which stemmed from their black hatred, was to gain control over the entire global economy, bringing the world under their thumb. So they founded huge companies, which, like spiders, send their webs all over the world. The main goal of these companies was to erase Islamic identity. ... Many basic products, which may be found in many Muslim households, like the Ariel, Tide, and Persil laundry detergents, are made by Zionist companies. The Coca Cola and Pepsi companies and all their products – Seven Up, Miranda, Fania, and all these products, all the carbonated beverages, with very few exceptions that don't bear mention... Almost all the carbonated beverages are Zionist-American products. [...] Some restaurants, I'm sad to say, are teeming with Muslim youth, and their safes are full of the money of Muslims... McDonalds is Jewish-Zionist, Kentucky Fried Chicken is Jewish-Zionist, Little Caesar, Pizza Hut, Domino's Pizza, Burger King... By the way, all these products, which I have mentioned... In addition, there is a new type of coffee these days... All these are pure Zionist products, especially what is known as Starbucks, the well-known coffee. It is Zionist. Ah yes, Starbucks: home of the Zionist genocidal apartheid bean.. In January, Egyptian Cleric Safwat Higazi brought viewers of al Nas TV urgent news about the Starbucks logo: Has any of you ever wondered who this woman with a crown on her head is? Why do we boycott Starbucks? ... The girl on the Starbucks logo is Queen Esther. Do you know who Queen Esther was and what the crown on her head means? This is the crown of the Persian Kingdom.

Re: [FairfieldLife] The Uncertainty, The Darkness, and Waking Up at 3 A.M.
Interesting! Where is the small town? What kind of a dog walks with you at that hour (here all females at night walk with dogs in this very safe town). Arhata March 15, 2009 A few days ago, I went out my door for a walk. After going down the gravel road in front of my house for a few minutes, I found myself staring straight on at a small group of deer. What a beautiful sight they were. As we stood there locked in a long gaze for several minutes, I noticed that instead of the five I had counted, there were actually ten. Eventually, they moved oh so slowly away and I progressed on with my walk. On my way back home, as I neared my house, there they were again, as they had moved along on their journey, crossed though my land, and ended up along another stretch of the gravel road I was journeying upon. This time, there were eleven, but as we stood there looking at each other once again, another deer emerged, making a total of twelve. Again, we had a wonderful encounter and interaction, and again we moved on with our own journeys. It occurred to me, as I encountered this beautiful gentle energy of the deer, yet twice in one day, that they possessed a wonderful message. At first they appeared as five…the energy of change. Then came ten…the energy of new beginnings with the zero being an extra energy of special inner gifts. Progressing to eleven, a new portal was opened, with the dual number one serving as pillars of new beginning energy for a wonderful entry point. And then eventually, they emerged as twelve…the final energy of a higher way of being..of a new dimension…of completion and perfection. And this is what is occurring now for so many of us. First we experienced great change and much that was new. The energies were encouraging us to leave much of everything behind and to set up a very new foundation for ourselves. New and different was the theme. Change readying for new beginnings. Along with this, we progressed through a portal to a new and different shore. And currently, depending upon where you are on your journey home, there may be a strange and unsettling calm, a void or standstill, a space of no movement, and a wondering where you are now. As always, we wait for the perfect time…we wait for enough souls to come to their own places on this journey…their own places in the new with their own new foundations now being set up. So in this way, after we progress to a certain point we may feel that not much is occurring, as the critical mass needs to be met before the next big surge forward and big experience of new and exciting adventures can arrive. Yes, we are laying a very important new foundation now. We all need to be ready. From new web sites, to new cars, to new clothes, better health, or perhaps new homes and new friends, we are preparing for something very big…for the new dimension of completion and perfection. We are now being asked to wait as everything is not quite where it needs to be before we move ahead. All the pieces are not yet together as a whole. It is not yet time. Shortly after the equinox on March 20th, there will be a bit of a shift along with the new moon on the 26th, and our new beginnings will then begin to open more fully. Waking Up At 3 A.M.

We need a break from being gone as so much is occurring on all levels…we need to be here. If you are one who is unusually sensitive, you may be finding it difficult to be out in the world, or to even have interactions at all with anything going on “out there.” Much of the old world can feel downright awful, as it is currently in such a major transition that the instability can throw us off balance and off course. Sensitives can oh so easily pick up these feelings of instability and uncertainty from others, but know as well, that the energies of the fall itself can be ever present as well. The energy of uncertainly, as all the pieces are not yet together for a big thrust forward, can be felt at all levels. At our soul levels we always know what is occurring. Thus, our souls serve to protect us in every way by making it very clear what is occurring at higher levels.
