i'm tired this stands on its own
the world's too full of information

thesis: we're at the _peak_ of information, not an upward slope.
after this: deterioration, gangs, spam, hacks, starvations, local wars,
infrastructure collapse...
the cusp is _now._
statistically, this has to be the case: how many are alive now, in relation to 
the carrying-capacity of the earth, population increase, desertification.

PHYSICS NEWS UPDATE
The American Institute of Physics Bulletin of Physics News
Number 802  November 22, 2006  by Phillip F. Schewe, Ben Stein,
and Davide Castelvecchi   www.aip.org/pnu

DARK ENERGY AT REDSHIFT Z=1.  Dark energy, the unidentified force
that's pushing the universe to expand at ever faster rates, was
already at work as early as  nine billion years ago, scientists
reported last week. New Hubble Space Telescope sightings of distant
supernova explosions support the explanation of dark energy as
energy of the vacuum whose density has stayed constant throughout
the universe's history, the scientists said.  This cosmic
acceleration was first revealed in 1998 by two separate teams of
astrophysicists. By measuring the brightness of supernova explosions
from up to seven billion light years ago, the scientists discovered
an unexpected discrepancy. The supernovae appeared dimmer, and thus
farther, than expected from their measured red shifts.  Put another
way, supernovae at a given distance were less redshifted than
expected. Because red shift measures how much light waves stretch as
the universe expands, the lower red shift meant that, early on, the
light from these distant supernovae had traveled in a universe that
was expanding at a slower rate than the current universe (whose rate
of expansion is known by other means). The then-widely accepted
model of cosmology required instead that the universe be slowing
down in its expansion, owing to the mutual gravitational tug of all
of the matter and energy contained in it.
Using the Hubble, a team led by Adam Riess, an astrophysicist at the
Space Telescope Science Institute and at Johns Hopkins University
has now observed 23 new supernovae dating back to 8 to 10 billion
years ago, he said in a Nov. 16 NASA press conference. That was an
era of intense star formation, when galaxies were three times as
bright as they are today. Until now, astronomers had only seen seven
supernovae from that period, Riess said, too few to measure the
properties of dark energy. The data show that the repulsive action
of dark energy was already active at that time, and are consistent
with a constant energy density -- in other words, with an energy of
the vacuum that does not dilute itself as the universe expands,
eventually fueling an exponential growth of the universe. More
complicated models with non-constant energy density -- including a
class known as quintessence models -- are not completely ruled out,
Riess said during the press conference: the new data still allows
for variations of  up to 45 percent from constant density. "It's
still pretty crude," Riess said. For more recent ages, dark energy
is known to have been constant up to a 10 percent variation. Mario
Livio, another STScI astronomer who also was at hand at the press
conference, said, "The results only rule out certain variants of
quintessence models," but not all of them.
Lawrence Berkeley Lab astrophysicists Saul Perlmutter, who leads
another supernova search, says that this is a step in the right
direction, but that only a new, dedicated space telescope will be
able to constrain the variation enough to convince scientists that
dark energy is constant. "We expect that the differences will be
much more subtle between the various models of dark energy," he
says. Perlmutter says his team is also looking at supernovae from
the distant past, focusing on ones from dust-free regions of the
universe, in order to estimate the statistical and systematic
uncertainties of the measurements.
The new data also confirm the reliability of supernovae as signposts
of the universe's expansion, Riess said. The particular kind of
supernova used for this kind of measurement, called type Ia, takes
place when a white dwarf star becomes heavier by accreting matter
from a companion star, until -- at a critical mass of about 1.4
times the mass of our sun -- it undergoes a thermonuclear explosion.
Virtually all type Ia supernovae have very standard characteristics
-- they all follow the same cycle, have roughly the same brightness
and relative abundances of elements, as seen from their spectra.
This makes astrophysicists believe that type Ia's have a predictable
intrinsic brightness, making their distances easy to estimate. It
now appears that the same is true for the oldest supernovae, even
though the elemental composition of the universe as a whole was
different back then. (Paper available at

Journal, 10 February 2007; for images see

homonumos (global islands project) (brad brace)

2006-11-22 Thread { brad brace }
Global Islands Project -- ongoing series of multi-media
pdf-ebooks -- a pastoral, pictorial and phonic elicitation
of island parameters.

Your (Art)world is based on mutual relief at your common
corruption. Maybe some cultures are based on even worse. But
that wouldn't change the bad faith of it and as years go by,
you wake at night in terror of your whole life being an act
of bad faith, where everything is self-interest and nothing
more, where every human interaction is driven by a silent,
even subconscious calculation of some ulterior motive, to
the point that a sea of bad faith has taken over your whole
life, there's no small island left from which you can even
try to build a bridge of good faith, because even that
effort becomes suspect, even good faith is nothing but
self-interested, even altruism is nothing but solipsistic,
even your professed agonizing right here right now is
nothing but a gesture, made to the conscience in order to
assure it that it exists.

Call for Papers, Performances, and Exhibits 


What are cultural rhetorics? Who writes, performs, displays, digitizes,
crafts, and creates these rhetorics? What do they look like? How do specific
cultural rhetorics differ from, overlap with, and/or engage in dialogue with
Cultural, Ethnic, African American, Asian American, American Indian, Arab
and Middle Eastern American, Chicano/a, Latina/o, Indigenous, Disability,
Queer/LGBT, Performance, and Working-Class Studies? What are their
relationships to Rhetoric Studies, Theory, and Pedagogy? Composition
Studies? American Studies? Literary Studies? Digital, Visual, and Material
Rhetorics? Scientific, technical, and professional communication studies?
Are there pedagogies of cultural rhetorics? Methodologies? Theories?
Performances? Materialities? 


We welcome papers, performances, and exhibits that articulate, engage with,
provoke, analyze, theorize, and practice cultural rhetorics. We are
particularly interested in scholars/artists/performers/writers/knowledge
workers that engage rhetorics that are too often marginalized, tokenized,
silenced, and ignored. We welcome work that happens at the intersection of
various disciplines and fields in the humanities and invite scholars,
artists, and writers to join us at these intellectual and creative
crossroads. Please join us in creating a space of radical
interdisciplinarity in which to explore rhetoric as a distinctive
constellation of methods, methodologies, and pedagogies for the study of
culture and to think through how the frame of “culture” expands our
understanding of rhetoric and the responsibility for rhetoric to be ethical
in its engagement with culture. 


While we are very interested in proposals for individual papers and panel
presentations that address these questions and/or further scholarship in
these areas, we especially encourage art, craft, multimedia, or imaginative
presentations/demonstrations/installations that provoke other methods of
intellectual engagement as well. 


Proposals of 300-500 words may be submitted via US Mail (proposal form on
reverse side) or via the conference website at
http://rhetoric.msu.edu/cultrhet. The deadline for submissions is January 1,
2007.

Deadly 'iku iku byo' reaches a climax

Deadly 'iku iku byo' reaches a climax

http://mdn.mainichi-msn.co.jp/waiwai/news/20061115p2g00m0dm04c.html/

Growing numbers of Japanese women are afflicted with an illness that  
gives them orgasms virtually 24 hours a day. And with suggestions  
that it could be deadly, the women hardly know whether they're coming  
or going, according to Shukan Post (11/24).
"If a guy simply taps me on the shoulder, I just swoon. Even when I  
go to the toilet, my body reacts. I'm a little bit scared of myself,"  
one woman sufferer tells Shukan Post.
Another adds: "When I got on the train one day, I could feel blood  
gushing toward a certain part of my body and it felt so good I almost  
let out a moan. It was sheer murder when everybody got pushed into  
the carriage."

Yet another woman has her say.
"Even the vibration of my mobile phone is enough to set me off," she  
says. "My friend said there's something called Iku Iku byo (Cum Cum  
Disease). I guess I've got that."
What may be afflicting these women, the best-selling weekly says, is  
an ailment called persistent sexual arousal syndrome (PSAS).
PSAS has been described as an affliction that brings about orgasm  
through the slightest of jolts regardless of whether they're aroused,  
or even thinking about sex. What's more, orgasms experienced by PSAS  
sufferers are not just momentary phenomena, instead affecting women  
over anywhere from a few days to a week, with one reported case  
seeing 300 orgasms in a single day.
Awareness in Japan of PSAS -- which was first documented by Dr.  
Sandra Leiblum in the United States five years ago -- is growing,  
especially in the blogsphere, where it is being called Iku Iku byo.
Hideo Yamanaka, a doctor at the Toranomon Hibiya Clinic in Tokyo says  
the disease can be debilitating.
"For women to orgasm, they need to have some sort of sexual  
stimulation. There are nerves around the female genitals which react  
to sexual stimulation. The body gradually builds up to a crescendo,  
that ascends to a climax," the doctor tells Shukan Post. "However,  
with this disease, women are mysteriously reaching climax without any  
external sexual stimulation at all. One possible cause that I can  
think of is an irregularity in the sensory nerves."
PSAS discover Leiblum says that the disease has a tendency to strike  
post-menopausal women in their 40s and 50s or those who've undergone  
hormonal treatment. But she adds that there have also been cases  
reported among women in their 30s, stressing that too little is known  
about the syndrome to pinpoint anything and adds that the nature of  
the ailment means that many sufferers may be too ashamed to report it.
PSAS numbers in the U.S. are high enough for support groups to have  
popped up, suggesting it won't be too long before Japan sees the same.
"Awareness levels are still too low," Jeannie Allen, the head of PSAS  
Support, tells Shukan Post. "I think there's a strong possibility  
that there are Japanese patients."
Manga artist Akira Narita, who says he has slept with over 1,000  
different women, says he has come across some he believes may have  
had PSAS.
"There must have been about 15 who came without me doing a thing.  
We'd only need to stare in each other's eyes and they'd start  
wiggling about, gripping tightly onto whatever was around them and  
their bodies would start to shake. There were others who'd orgasm  
repeatedly just because I'd stroked their hands," the self-professed  
sexpert says. "I'd always thought of these women as types who got off  
in their minds, but I think perhaps they may have had PSAS."
PSAS is not sex addiction and, considering the constant orgasms can  
be draining, can often be a painful and demeaning experience. Many  
sufferers are driven to the verge of suicide, prompting medical  
experts to recommend anybody who suspects they have the ailment to  
seek a doctor's advice immediately.
"Anybody who has the slightest suspicion," physician Yamanaka tells  
Shukan Post, "should get to a gynecologist or neurologist straight  
away." (By Ryann Connell)
