Helmetless Motorcycle Ridin Head Injuries Cost $1.3 Million

When an bare-headed motorcycle rider bounces his head along the asphalt it causes a lot of dead brain cells to develop. Treating those riders costs about an average 1.3 million bucks according to a Nov. 16, 2013 report in The Economist. The public is paying those costs commonly since a lot of Americans haven't got 1.3 mil in their rainy day account. Existential do-it-your own way compiled for all of society can be expensive and inefficient.

 Having rode a motorcycle a little myself I know that helmets tend to be heavy, although the visor does keep bugs from suddenly impacting one's face or eyes. Its good to ride along in a kind of dreamy freedom with quick, responsive steering that may be inadequate anyway if taking a turn too fast. Why not invent new lightweight helmets for motorcycles and pro footballers of American and soccer styles?

Ultra-lightweight bike rider-type helmets specially designed to let soccer players use their head to hit a ball might cut down on brain damage to those athletes over protracted head ball butting. Doesn't seem like a big problem-maybe they could have heads up visors with tactical data about opfor player deployments and better instantly implement better plays. American footballers and motorcycle riders need something different-lightweight, effective perhaps with an expanded on impact air bag liner between inner and outer players or a honeycomb helmet that is designed to be disposable after a certain amount of use with air pocket cellular collapsing bubble layers, ball bearings to reduce angled contact friction and better design for foam and heat dispersion.

One imagines that a lot of money is made on designing ultra-lightweight football helmets with collision sense data impact chips, podcast reception, language translation and video of the field with cheat sheets for plays that some can't remember because of memory loss.

Put the Crimea in Russia Custody With Ukrainian Movement West

The Ukrainian problem is an historically recurrent phenomenon. A nice place away from the center of anything with beach front property it has often been divided by great powers or cut in deals to bring peace temporary or lasting for a while longer. V.I. Lenin gave the Ukraine to Germany in the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk in order to back out of the First World War that was regarded as a battle royal (Kaisers vs. Romanovs, Hapsburgs, and Windsors etc.).
 


The Ukraine has been inhabited by human beings for at least 40,000 years according to the Wikipedia article on its history. The first horse was domesticated in the Ukraine. It's been domestically ruled by as many as three ruling clans at any given time such as Mongols, Lithuanians and Russians, Poles, Germans, Austrians and Hungarians.. Ukrainians sometimes revolt or have nuclear plant meltdowns; it's just the way things are.


 


The first ruler of the Rus, about 975, was  a Verangian/Viking named Yaroslav who looked like Hulk Hogan's great great great etc. The Rus of Kiev were a little disorganized and so they asked the distant warrior to be their king, he consented and the succession of a million little princlings followed with each getting a smaller piece of the inheritance pie. By the time in the 19th century when Fedor Dostoyevsky wrote The Idiot about Prince Mishkin, many princes and nobles were landless and others had a few acres though some had much more). While Russia expanded and relocated the capitol north to Moscow later it was far from aloof politically speaking. Moscow was invaded and occupied for a year circa 1400 by Timur Lenk-a Turkicized Mongol of the Chagatai tribe and others of course (e.g. Napoleon, Hitler). Timur was debatably the greatest conqueror in world history and one of the most barbaric building literal towers of skulls here and there. He conquered Syria, Iraq, Azerbaijan, Armenia, Mesopotamia, Georgia, much of Russia, India, the Caucasus and Lithuania amongst other places.

Stabilizing the Ukraine is good for east-west relations reducing tensions across the continent. It isn't a thing that Satan would want. With accentuation of the positive in ecospheric economic reform and with a more rational and less belligerent approach to military security the nations and Ukraine in particular can prosper better. Probably Russia should take the Crimea as part of Russia since it’s full of Rus and has been a Russian possession before while the Ukraine should enter the common market and be a member of N.A.T.O. if it wants do it can send troops to the next Afghanistan. Russians won't be jealous about that.


 


The Ukrainian should just get on with the realistic business of being ecospherically thoughtful Ukrainians again and work on taming the policy of non-renewable economic and ecosphere use to make it work for long-range sustainability inclusive of natural genetic diversity of flora and fauna. There is quite a vast left-wing and sometime flip-side right wing inertia toward networking and massification of everything pasteurizing logic and reason into a few commercial varieties that isn't very smart. Letting locals set their own moral values is as important and keeping intellectual freedom of expression and freedom of individual enterprise free from oppressive mobs. Good luck Ukraine.

Fed Judge Rules Texas Can't Pass Laws On Human Behavior-Anything Geos

With the power of the gun the U.S. Government can impose it's will upon the states regarding an evolution to moral depravity. Absolute power corrupts absolutely. Queer-symp judges of a globalist evil empire can swing the meaning of words against public will if they have great enough reward for doing so

In fact the Federal Judge ruling that Texas cannot have a law banning homosexual marriage decided that Texas legislators cannot make laws about laws. It seems though that nothing requires the state to pass law extending marriage to homosexuals though, or to animals, triples, quartets or corporations. In theory nothing at all should require the strates to provide legal institutions for any sort of behavioral pattern without voter consent. 

So if homosexuals want to 'marry' in some states nothing requires other states to recognize those marriages any more than concealed carry laws of other states.

If the U.S. Government is simply corrupt and demonically possessed as if the evil empire cast out of the Soviet Union moved to Washington D.C. like a legion of devils into Gadarene swine the states will need to resist the degradation of morality as best they can.

Reading from A Universal Widget in the Realm of Forms (video)

I read about a half-hour from my science fiction novel The Universal Widget in the Realm of Forms. Voice-over unrelated yet amusing images. A philosopher-entrepreneur, Patrick Voevoda, and his excellent quantum entangled mate  Yvonne discuss quantum cosmology and the missing Universal Widget discovering traces of its inventive interventions in the Rangestar system's planet Spud. 

                                                                          

The Presidential Sodom and Gomorrah Economic Policy

President Obama as a shill for implanting economic policy favorable to global corporatist needs something to pacify the Democrat Party that is for-itself deficient of economic reason or patriotism this decade. Global corporatists have learned how to market to American masses in the age of intellectual and ideological fracture. They provide homosexuality and illegal drugs along with incessant broadcast media reinforcement of immoral values-that is those values not in support of tax cuts for the rich, homosexual marriage and denationalization of the economy.

 

Nations opposed to homosexual marriage tend to also be in favor of economic nationalism. China has a state policy allowing foreign corporations ton own just 49% of any Chinese Corporation thus keeping political control national. Russia and Saudi Arabia tend to operate along the same lines-remember Saudi’s nationalization of Aramco. Homosexuality within a Nietszchian ‘beyond good and evil’ amoral context allowing wealthy elites to act immorally without moral reproach tends to be an agent of dissolution of existing, national and traditional economic social infrastructure. That sort of policy is favored by a bought and paid for administration and supported by a Democrat Party without national economic reason.

It is challenging to have confidence in any administration policy. Economic sins of omission and commission makes us wonder if the line of famous Guzman's; the founder of the Dominican Order, The Founder of the Shining Path and the founder of the Sinaloa Cartel, has this time presented a no-bodyguards voluntary return to the penalty box for political benefits to a Chicago political machine. One wonders why a Mexican-border saltwater canal to desalinate water for farming through evaporation and condensation isn't mentioned as the draught may just be in the beginning stages of long-term increase in the Southwest. The answer is that such policy would enhance  U.S. national security and economic interests. Like a bill in congress to require that 51% ownership of any corporation in the U.S.A. be American, Wall  Street globalists wouldn't like it.

 

The appeal of an amoral culture beyond good and evil is substantial for the average citizens of a post-modern democracy. Ethics and intellect require intellectual effort. To be immersed instead of a pre-intellectual milieu of hedonist evolutionary amoral impulse reinforced by media and government works for many yet collectively it is a sleeper hold mercy killing the electorate’s reason. The Presidential policy development of the Democrat Party encapsulated like an amoral commune within a corporate global network struck does not bode well for the prospects for American inventiveness, economic reform or even life on Earth.

Elements of Church History Before the Dark Ages (incl. video)

In writing of a history of the Christian church in the ancient era after the end of the apostolic era and before the start of the Middle Ages one ought to determine where the word church arose and what it meant. Because of the 3^rd Goth invasions of Asia Minor at the end of the classical era of history associated with the fall of the Western Roman Empire many Greek words were brought into Germanic languages including. In Greek the original term for Christian assemblies was ἐκκλησία or ekklēsia and ecclesia. Arising from the Greek word referring to city-state assemblies that only citizens could participate in ecclesia was also used by Christians to refer to their own assemblies.

Cirice is the proximal Old English forerunner of the English word church via a Greek into German etymlogical path. A congregation of the Lord was ἐκκλησία κυριακή ekklēsia kuriakē. That made it into  West German as kirika from κυριακή kuriakē. The word for Lord was κύριος-kurios. Old English derived cirice from  from kirika and thus church emerged. An assembly of people who are believers that Jesus Christ is Lord is the church.

The development of social organization around Jesus to spread the good news followed his instruction in Mark 16:15 “And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.” This leaves open the possibility of preaching the gospel one day to extra-terrestrials I suppose.

Development of the Christian church in many respects occurs within a contemporary historical tapestry of change and social development. Empires arise and civilizations fall. The proliferation of Christian faith and the establishment of churches in communities transcend borders and governments. In fact the establishment of the church itself creates a form of government itself in the evolution of the episkopos or bishops and the ekklesia or assembly that becomes a church structure prevalently within an Episcopal organizational patrimony. Even before the end of the first century Clement of Rome wrote epistles to other churches as an authority. One asks why the egalitarianism of early Christianity changed during the second century largely to an Episcopal structure as the apostolic era faded away. The answer is twofold. One, there was a need to establish a catholic or standard doctrine amidst the diverse assemblies and secondly human social organization tend to organize hierarchically to reflect authority.

The churches of North Africa, the Near East and Asia Minor developed regional authorities or Bishops with some more influential than others. Initially the churches of Antioch, Jerusalem and Rome were regarded more or less equally as centers of authority. Later Constantinople arrived to be considered an equal Christian center of authority, yet the development of Church authority in equal proportional measure with population and political power resembles in some ways the kind of proportional government found in the U.S. House of Representatives with those from populous states collectively having more representation. In the church history that evolved into Rome being the seat of authority in Western Europe especially after the fall of the Western Roman Empire and in the East Constantinople emerged as the center of Christian authority with much respect for Rome until the second schism.

One might say that the post-Apostolic increase of early Christianity was a process of missions, increase in the numbers of the faithful and ossification of hierarchical church structure under the authority of a bishop, and the bishops increased in number eventually recognizing particular metropolitan bishops as Bishops of Bishops or prime ministers under the authority of Christ. Church doctrine developed such that the opinions of the bishops were regarded as if they were themselves spokesmen for the Lord. Of course in the era before electronic communications perhaps they were approximately right. Keeping orthodoxy of faith and disseminating the true gospel without error such as Monophysitism and Arianism required a certain standardized coordination in the entire Christian world that was roughly the same area as that of the Roman Empire.

Institutional methods for distinguishing Christians from heretical votaries were developed conforming to standardized catechetical instruction and pubic baptism to symbolize admission of righteous faith.  Peter’s confession in Matthew 16:16 was the forerunner of creeds of faith and Matthew 28-19 of Trinitarian baptismal expressions.

Audio On Eschatology With Post-Chiliastic, Petrine Inflationary Cosmological Parameters

End times theories created for a post-Chiliastic paradigm using Petrine and Inflationary Cosmology parameters are worth some thought. Here is some conjecture.
