Half-Billion Dollar Bond Gives Trump N.Y.'s 'Can't Make Bail Experience

 The exorbitant 461 million dollar bond required by a New York judge for Donald Trump for trump to pay in order not to lose a civil case charging him with fraud is a learning moment for the general public on the problem so many New Yorkers that are poor have had in being arrested and staying there for months because they couldn't make bail. The history of wealth based in New York is a sad one of thousands staying in jail just for being poor and unable to make bail. New York Democrat eyeballing Mr. Trumps Republican wealth set a bail so high that they can nearly win the case by forfeit- a clever tactic to take down the assets of a political rival they hate.

t is improbable that Donald Trump could hide all of his wealth from New York if he eventually does lose the case and subsequent appeals though he has declared bankruptcy several times. People actually take 100 million seriously, much less a half billion.The experience may enlighten voters enough to become aware that reform should occur to prevent wealth based justice from keeping citizens in jail or losing their financial resources.

Post-Modern Martian Troglodytes

 Using drones to excavate cave dwellings before Post-Modern EarthTroglodytes arrive upon Mars may be one of the more safe and economic approaches to constructing dwellings for explorers. It might in fact be an upgrade over the probable future government-corporate modus operandi toward erecting clusters of disposable and relocatable extraterrestrial shelters that could be unsafe at any speed. Rock drill drones and drones planting explosive charge to blast into well selected martian hillsides could be the first of a two-stage process to manufacture cave dwellings. The second phase would have rock drills make holes for expansion bolts along the perimeter entrance for front wall panels to attach to. The panels would need to be designed to have flexible membranes on surfaces attached to the cave to seal against air leaks.

Mining technology is quite mature. Adapting it to Martian conditions will require innovation and invention. Shaped explosive and cratering charges placed by drone operators to reduce the use of heavy equipment will be necessary. Development of safely spaced mines after the initial housing is built to create space for industrial, scientific and recreational opportunities could follow the rise of Martian mining technology. A post-modern cave district might provide several alternative shelters in case one’s air seal fails catastrophically. Alternative shelters within easy waking or drone deliver distance would create a better survival footing.

Plainly there are innumerable ways to place surveillance and inspection cameras on mars able to provide drone operators on earth with near real-time information for control. That would work as well for drones picking up and delivering cargo from pilotless spacecraft delivering building supplies from Earth and the Moon base.

Water might be the most difficult delta v challenge for humans living on Mars to satisfy. A human needs about five gallons a water a week for drinking, and water weighs perhaps 7 pounds per gallon. It would require a two-hundred ten to 250 gallons of water per troglodyte each month of martian residency, and more than 2400 lbs for a year adding up to quite a lot of material to fly from Earth. Instead the water should be harvested from existing deposits on Mars.

Harvesting Martian water from ice deposits should be technically too challenging for drones. After the water is sampled for purity it would need to be transported by drone vehicles to the cave dwellings. Using sunlight for solar voltaic power, and with solar panels decreasing in cost almost on a semi-annual basis electrolysis could separate some of the water made from ice into constituent parts. Bringing oxygen from Earth is rather impractical too so producing it in the cave dweller’s neighborhood would be the better choice.

Before the first long-term martian settlements are established experimenting with cave-home construction and building electric drone vehicles able to charge from power lines or power stations for transport need be started. Though a small nuclear plant may work on Mars to generate power, electric vehicles and recharging stations or even in-line electricity for direct power for vehicles should go ahead too.

Ineffective Palestinian Civilian Food Relief

 The lack of delivery of adequate food for Palestinian refugees within the Gaza is notable and a paradox since there has been so much international outcry about it. Could it be that bureaucrats decide to deliver food supplies that are less than efficient in comparison to other foodstuffs? Unfamiliarity with effective real world innovative delivery modes may be as harmful as terrorists willing to starve their own people for political capital.

There is quite a difference between foot that is cheap and full of carbohydrates and well balanced meals. It is easier to deliver large quantities of junk food and low weight food however, and fast and light food may work well enough to keep people from starving to death over a couple of months. One might not want to make a long-term diet of cold corn tortillas, potted meat product or Vienna sausages, dehydrated beans, crackers and moon pies yet they can keep one alive for quite a while longer than absolute starvation

Well balanced meals are costly, heavy and often packaged inefficiently. The U.S.A. for instance has sent M.R.E.s that are bulky, large and costly. Even opening them creates a lot of junk strewn about. In the space of a pallet with 500 M.R.E.s one might place several thousand of the lighter items to relieve hunger. Sure sending millions of little packages of chewable multi-vitamins is a good idea yet is that even on the radar screen of refugee relief planners?

Water is probably the most necessary item for survival in a hot environment. Water bags and desalinization plants may be the way to accomplish that. Certain naval vessels do have desalinization equipment on board and pipes can be laid from those to a safe distance for masses with potential terrorists among them to draw water.

Obviously cooked meals from field kitchens is preferable to dry, air dropped supplies perhaps accomplished with flocks of flying drones and large aircraft. Yet field kitchens to prepare beans and rice with bread can be dangerous for relief workers when adults around them need to conduct the business of war to slaughter one another, take or rescue hostages and so forth.

I suppose one might make a substantial homeless shelter for refugees from old automobiles and trucks brought together as if they were in a drive-in theater. Solar power electric fans might help with fans for cooling. It would be better to have a regular building, yet in an area of war mobile homeless shelters could be a more efficient plan.

Continua (a poem)

 

As greening leaves
store memory
in gravity
one might believe

  That hope conceives
the seasons’ keys
growing to be
new life to see

  Those practical
spirals of Earth
construct forms worth
all things natural

  Ideas for all
share more than mirth
God beat the dirth
mind hears the call

  Universe rolls
waves in nothing
fields spark something
new to behold

  Implicit goals
arise with wings
although time stings
because it's cold.

Allegory of the Cookie verse (video)

The author reads from his novel 'A Thought of Infinite Being'.



Trump and Navalny; Dissident Targets of Majority Parties

 Current events are interesting to consider. In politics they occur on a foundation of the past. Democrats have sought to eliminate opposition with as much legal force as possible; bending, folding and mutilating the concept of objective legal justice, especially within legislative parameters so far as possible. For them, law is a malleable taffy super-ball that bounces in reaction to its shape and quantum force applied to compress it.

In some ways Joe Biden is the mirror image of Vladimir Putin although Putin is a patriot and Russian nationalist while Biden is a globalist and moral relativist with nominal allegiance to the religious leader in Rome. Perhaps Rome and Mecca share similar positions in drawing a select crowd of the global faithful toward the relative centers.

Like the Russia United Party the Democrat Party seeks to be the sole party of the nation democratically. Joe Biden built up the inevitability of war with Russia via Ukraine through endless increase of sanctions, military support and efforts to bring Ukraine’s western dependent government further into the embrace of the EU and N.A.T.O. instead of recognizing Russia’s reconquista of the Crimea and seeking to settle the east bank of the Dnepr problem peacefully through sharing and positive reinforcement of economic agreements to make the area a tax-free zone.

Joe Biden is the re-election specialist who will shape every issue to his personal political advantage in order to garner votes. Even the border crisis flooding the nation with foreign migrants developed because he refused to continue the Trump border wall development. Though a wall is an inferior remedy to halt illegal migrants in comparison to saltwater filled canals with locks, used to desalinate, evaporate and capture fresh water condensation under a roof spanning the border (with saltwater piped to the continental divide with solar powered pumps), the president was completely ineffective at stopping illegal aliens at the border. Presently he puts himself as the remedy to the problem though his Border Tsar was impeached.

Joe Biden, Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, Rep Madler and Rep. Adam Schifler would have hung Trump if they could have got away with it in order to secure the party’s grasp on power. In a real way Donald Trump is comparable to the late Alexei Navalny in being the object of wrath of the majority political party. Navalny’s recent death wasn’t too surprising because, like Trump, he is domestically regarded as treasonous and coordinator of insurrections (meaning in this case opposition to the political will of the majority). Such labels are convenient methods for eliminating the legal right of opposition party candidates to run for elected office or to be sentenced to death ,in camera.

The United States isn’t a well balanced political place these days. Democrats and many college students feel the party candidate is the sole way to help the people through economic breaks. They support illegal immigrations and mass refugee status for migrants as well. They fail to understand that the refugees are allowed in through criminal means because they are valued as cheap labor. Keeping wage labor values down is a perennial value of the rich. Capital increases faster than wages; far faster, and Democrats don’t really comprehend that today. Popular support for illegal cheap labor primarily benefits the rich. There is no substitute for legal order and only legal workers within a polity. Democracy must have sovereignty to be more than token, and sovereignty includes total control over immigration. In it’s absence wealth concentrates, public debt deepens, the environment decays and many American lives become marginalized. Alternatively, with sovereign control and an electorate that supports adequate taxation on the wealthy, the environment may be repaired, public debt reduced, the federal budget balanced, peace and prosperity with Russia and the rest of the world attained and poverty really eliminated in the United States. If the United States can actually become the good example of a political system that works it can help other nations in practical ways to emulate that success.


In the 1970s the average CEO compensation might be 50 times greater than that of factory workers. Now it is more than 300 times greater and party followers don’t really comprehend the difference. They tend to be satisfied with Democrat party legislative slop while wealth is concentrated. The United States is now on equal footi In a few years social security for the old and poor may be jeopardized because the structure returns money to the well off. Social welfare programs need to benefit those that need the assistance if they are to be practical and affordable. Everyone need pay into the system yet just the needy should use them. Safety nets are intended for those that fall; not those that have ascended economically and are living well.

Democrats could have let the Bush two tax cuts expire while Barrack Obama was President yet he twisted everyone’s arm to renew them. Democrats should just elect Trump to one term and let the Biden-party leadership expire. A new Democrat Party that supports a guaranteed basic income for all Americans paid for by raising the taxes on the rich should arise. It should also have an ecological economic platform that diligently works to reduce global warming, habitat loss and mass species extinction.

If everyone that is poor in the United States has a basic livable income yet are encouraged to find ecologically sustainable jobs- even into old age, the economic support could fade out as people received better earned compensation. At that point of more political refugees need to be allowed in to provide extra legal labor , poorer Americans would suffer less displacement.

President Biden has been focused on apologetics for letting in so much cheap, illegal labor and in some way reversing the blame and pretending to be seeking to control the problem in order to be re-elected as illegal migrations by the millions is regarded badly even by most Democrats in addition to Republicans. He wants billions and billions of new dollars for weapons and financial aid for the Ukraine in order to try to make it exclusively a western puppet. That is an obsolete paradigm for prosperity with winning wars through mass land conquest. Real prosperity grows with technological sophistication rather than real estate. Even agriculture can be grossly improved one day through zero gravity, or rather microgravity farming within solar powered space enclosures.

Joe Biden and the extremist Democrat party have placed perennial agricultural sanctions on Russia . Taking away it’s Ukraine lands when Russia was weak during the transition from Soviet Communism guaranteed and unbalanced future Europe with Russia trying to recover from the economic disaster by its loss of productive Ukrainian agricultural lands. Ukraine was historically a Russian possession until the 20th century when Germany sought its conquest. Before that it had been battled over though since Catherine the Great it was Russian.

One may want to stop for moment here and consider the approaches of Derrida, Quine and P.F. Strawson- as well as Kripke, to assigning meanings of words to objects, or as Derrida wrote, between signs and signified in regard to the parameters of the war in Ukraine. If Derrida wanted to dissolve the Platonic realist description of words, as might even Neo-realists like Kripke, in his works in order to deconstruct institutions, establishments of repressive power and perhaps even nations (I am not confident that he wished that), he may have made the same error that Aristotle did with his logic of syllogisms in over-estimating the strength of the relation between signs and signified. Aristotle’s syllogistic logic did not correspond directly to objects so the logic had fallacies in regard to real relations among objects, and Derrida’s effort to change material reality by making words implicitly meaningless variables shared that flaw. Night and day are real things experienced regardless of what one names them.

N.A.T.O and its member nations may be the largest organization on Earth, or the greatest institution. It seeks to wrest historically Russian land from Russia through sanctions, war and other condign measures, while Russia- a smaller institution and organization, seeks to keep the land. During the Vietnam War the left called the war illegal although the U.N.-sanctioned South Vietnam and its defense. Today European the left of N.A.T.O. and the United States in power name Russia’s annexation of the Crimea and Eastern Ukraine illegal. Plainly it is nothing more than a tug of war between two great institutions over land ownership. The land is real, the people and history are actual and the conflict is evident regardless of what terms one gives it. One might wonder if deconstruction applies to more than political opposition and invariably coincides with an era of concentrating wealth and de facto death of democracy.

The best the western position can hope to accomplish is to build an Iron Curtain with Russia and load up the Ukraine-Russia boundary with N.A.T.O. forces primed for the final war of mankind (unless a Navalny like candidate takes power and flips the nation to western submission). Democrats will covertly support movements to develop insurrection in Russia even after the end of a successful Ukrainian victory over Russia. It is hard to predict how use of a flood of N.A.T.O. and primarily U.S. military and financial support will end. Today the brick nations including Russia, China and India are developing an alternative world economic order. It is possible of course that nuclear, chemical or biological war could follow a western victory. One would think that Europe will seek somewhat normalized relations as soon as possible with business leading the way and politicians dragging their feet.

At least President Biden has not eagerly sought the end of the Israeli military action in the Gaza. One would need to calculate how much time it would take for Hamas the terror organization to force its way back into power if it isn’t eliminated, and how long it would take for Iran and other Islamic nations to rearm Hamas with better, newer weapons to attack Israel with. It is sad that so many civilians were killed in hunting down Hamas, yet stopping short of finishing the job would simply guarantee a future Hamas attack on Israel as that mafia has no ethos for anything else. Not since the end of the first world war has it been more clear that finishing the job is necessary to prevent a second, future conflict.

Gangster dynamics drive members to commit crimes. Terror organizations that hate as their organizing principle Israel and seek to eliminate it, and have the ability with stockpiles of weapons, need attack Israel eventually or lose their grip on power. Younger terrorists with vigorous, energetic hatred replace older, complacent terrorists.

The vote of Michigan Muslims not to select Joe Biden as their candidate in the Democrat primary was the first big bite back of the party’s preference for immigrants as a way to build up their voting base. In the future they may discover that immigrants and children of illegal migrants chose to vote anti-pathetically to issues that the party’s traditional white liberal, feminist, homosexual, foreign and migrant, base of support support.

Fields Contrast (poem)

 

  The weather cold
just as you know
like alpin glow
seems forever

  Each spring unsold
planted life grows
watered peace flows
past hates lever

  Test one’s mettle
the space explore
to unknown shores
rhyme would settle

  Thoughts may shuttle
destiny more
reasoning for
places so subtle

  Scalar fields morph
embedded things
stretched time pings
beyond light’s wharf.

Joe Biden's Ukraine; The Next Afghanistan or Vietnam?

The United States has developed a record for engaging in protracted wars to accomplish a few general tactical political or economic objectives before withdrawing. Having invested lots (billions and billions) of cash, military equipment and advice in propping up one of the most corrupt governments in the world the Ukraine may be destined to become the next fiasco the U.S. Democrat Party has accomplished.

The Ukraine is Joe Biden's war. He is the haute chef of death. Precursor events for starting the conflict established by Bill Clinton and Barrack Obama, President Biden was an 800 pound monkey in government agitating, arm-twisting and redistributing pentagon products to keep the conflict going. Most Americans would like the misbegotten war to end. Sharing far eastern Ukraine with its traditional owner-Russia, and restoring normal relations on both sides of the Dnipr River with large reconstruction projects accentuating the positives of sustainable economics would be of great value to the world.

Instead of the OSD (obsessive compulsive disorder) approach to international relations that demands every military contrivance possible in disorder to militarily force Russia to lose all of its historical lands in the Ukraine, a righteous President would stop flooding Ukraine with weapons that some believe is the trigger event to Armageddon and a destined New World Order of pervasive Neo-Paleolithic social anomie.

The west can survive if Russia owns the Crimea and far eastern Ukraine and even prosper with some sort of restoration of post-Cold War cooperation and normal economic relations with Russia. That would be better than the OCD approach that will present a sudden chill with a Ukraine left in chaos and Europe hating America for not rebuilding the Cold War with a new Iron Curtain to separate dangerous Cossack Huns of Russia seeking to devour Holland, Lithuania, Britain, Poland and Germany.

Replace G. Washington's name for Capitol with that of a Prior President?

 Some people are offended by places named for slavers or that exploit American aboriginals. The Kansas City chiefs offended quite a few people. The 49ers had a politically correct name alternatively, and were crushed in defeat. So much for linguistic justice.

The capitol named for a slave owner and district named for a felon and Indian slaver and killer also trouble some. Who can forget the worst massacre of Indians-Shoshone in US history (of course it pales in comparison to Latin American slaughter of Indians sometimes accidentally with viruses).

A neutral name for each-like Trump or Rumplestilskin is what others seek. Since there were 14 presidents before George Washington it would be easy to select another President’s name to replace him for the nation’s capitol. Mifflin and Hancock are a pair of likely candidates… Choose one for yourself here...

The Question; Should One Fear Death

 If one has a new car with that new car smell and life is finally a bowl of chocolate covered cherries maybe one fears death since it might be cold and dirty. If one has toothache, hunger and pain in an amputated arm, is far in debt and can’t get a job perhaps death seems like a pleasure sometimes- especially if thinking about the quality of presidential candidates. Fear though is ineffective at preventing death, so why use it if one likes effective thought? I would guess that it can be used as a stimulus to remain alive when that isn’t easy.

They Don't Believe in Life After Death yet...

 Some to be certain would die to find out. Others trusting physics and the conservation of information (Shannon entropy) believe a mind and its information must be eternal- even outlasting the Higgs Field and grand reunification to singularity or a cold dead universe/multiverse. Still others trust in God…for all things created by God as spirit logically always exist for God regardless of material configurations of the temporal.

Plastic Whales (poem)

 

Parts per billion
words worth wisdom shatter as icicles on asphalt
dripping tar-balls and chemicals
nano-plastic content
spilt oil for
baleen filters
a whale steers through sound cones
keeping islands between it and
dendrites in confusion
discovered by fish finders

Plinking with sonar guidance
crashing into the leader
a hull gouges grooves across darkness
resurfaces survival values
in Thanatos’ caustic pollutants-
insults to epidermis
alienated and homeless
starving with the salmon faded
taken by mid-ocean drift nets
memories netted
death in cold water

The color of the water
a vast city’s sewer soup
affluence to oceans
drugs flushed to cetacea
received the swimmers
a rainbow of arterial additives
with motors distracting echoes
ripples in gray matter.

The Von Biden Plan to Build a New Iron Curtain for Europe

 Democrat Party President Joe Biden is building the new Iron Country dividing the economies of east and west in order to prosecute a violent proxy war with Russia over Ukraine. His policy to fail to recognize legitimate historical Russian claims to the Crimea and Ukraine and to annex it onto Europe and N.A.T.O. at best will lead to a lasting adverse relationship with Russia and a situation for Europe comparable to that of North and South Korea. I experienced nearly a half century of cold war from youth and am of the opinion that swingy, corrupt and virtually insane Democrat Party preferences to restart it are exceptionally harmful to U.S. National security, to a unified world economic order and to efforts to restore the human caused world environmental decay with global heating. President Biden is incompetent and dangerous. He is even more so because Democrats seem willing to re-elect him and continue the war with Russia via Ukraine.

Wouldn’t it be nice to have intelligent, skillful, competent, productive leadership in the White House for a change? Leadership that brings peace now, restores the environment so far as he or she can, creates full employment, reduces public debt as is basically smarter than the average Democrat?

All that is required to end the conflict in Ukraine is for POTUS to recognize Russian ownership of the Crimea and the areas of far Eastern Ukraine that border Russia. European security is not enhanced with creation of a permanent state of hostility even if the conflict ends up as ‘successfully’ as the Korean war. European fear of Russia seems to flow from the political top down; Russia was never an economic threat to Europe with its comparatively small population and economy. With a free enterprise based economy Russia had let in a plethora of western corporations to do business before that changed with 8 years of the Obama administration and the election of Joe Biden to the White House.

Russian leadership wanted peace and prosperity shared with the west. President Putin has shown interest in repairing environmental damages globally. He was a partner in the war against terrorism. He also had to rebuild his nation from the ground up bureaucratically, forming a tax policy (and the war may help with that) and a military modeled on that of the U.S. volunteer force. His final task was to restore historical Russian lands and reverse the ignominious theft by Bill Clinton and that last leader of Communist Russia of historically Russian property in Ukraine. He Baltic Republics, Poland and England were never a part of the reconquista plan and desire for Russia. Russians aren’t stupid and they never sought World War Three or to conquer historically free nations of Western Europe. To pretend anything else in order to support the Ukraine war with Russia is dishonest, cowardly or incompetent to the point of insanity.

President Biden has built up a monster of a political situation for the United States that could melt like winter snow if Donald Trump is re-elected to the Presidency. Yet Democrats hate the idea of Russia owning Ukraine and will attack Mr. Trump and the Republican Party with as much hatred as they have for Russia; they absolutely do not want peace and a renormalized world economy that isn’t divided for some reason. Maybe Europe taking natural gas deliver from Russia rather than the U.S.A. was reason enough to foment political relations leading to Russia’s decision to go to war rather than trust Joe Biden. Now Europe gets natural gas from the United States and elsewhere. Perhaps the prospect of arms sales for war for a few generations was enticing enough to throw away peace and bury the key in a location more hidden than Golem’s ring of power. That ring of war should have been destroyed, not the ring of peace that should be in existence today, and could with righteous leadership with the fearful leadership of political runts taken out of the game.

Shem, Ham and Japheth; Jericho and Göbekli Tepe

 I wanted to write something about the world’s first known city and the world’s first known temple site. Each were built within the Fertile Crescent following roughly an arc between Cairo and Babylon via Turkey south of the Atlas Mountains. Each date to about 10,000 B.C.

That era around 10,000 B.C. was a pivotal time in human history. The great Wisconsin Ice Age had nearly ended. Ocean water levels had risen 200 feet and would reach the high water mark about 8500 B.C. (until recent times of course with human caused atmospheric heating melting even more glacial ice and sending sea level up a little but higher though nothing so dramatic as before). The paleolithic era had nearly concluded having begun about 350,000 B.C. Mankind had not yet invented pottery yet would by 6500 B.C.

Göbekli Tepe is a great male-dominated hunter-gather society with great permanent stone temples decorated with animal carvings. It existed between 10,000 and 8500 B.C. The stone carvings were ritually buried on occasion. The final group of carvings are of humans. That is notable. Not only was hunting becoming less good with so many animals being killed, a son of Noah may have reached the pagan site and persuaded them to become followers of God rather than votaries of dumb animals even though they provided food and were important.

It is not as silly of an idea as it seems. Agriculture had not yet been invented yet was in the process. People were beginning to cultivate wild grain and animals were being domesticated for food and as tools (wolves into dogs). Adam and Eve may have s[pent their time in Eden sometime before 10,000 B.C. in a present desert region of the Saudi Peninsula or even in the Sahara during the ice age when each were far different than today. Adequate water existed then and the climate was milder. Having been tested by God they were cast out into the world; Eden literally disappeared with the end of the Wisconsin. Just as the land bridge named Berengia between Russia and Alaska disappeared by 8500 B.C. beneath the waters of the Bering Sea, the sea level Rose in the Persian Gulf and Red Sea burying any proton-human settlements along the shores. Adam and Eve may have lived alone or found a small group of people to live with along the Persian Gulf shore. It is probable that a first worldly city began there perhaps as early as 12 to 14,000 years before Christ. It was supposedly an industrious yet wicked and sinful people that God became discouraged with regarding their human nature. If they were living some were on a land-spit of the Euphrates river below the present sea level and if there was a flood arising up the Tigris-Euphrates from some burst of dammed up glacial meltwater during a rainstorm last forty days and nights the entire world of Noah’s experience may have been submerged and the mud dwelling destroyed.

There were evidently other humans existing in the world while the Adam and Eve experiment was being conducted. Maybe they were a test case to determine if humans created in perfect conditions could ever be worth a damn- who can say for sure? They failed and were moved out from Utopia to work for a living and give birth to short-lived kids (eventually) that could live for ever as they could have possibly if not for being found to be disobedient. It is possible that Genesis is itself a kind of history sketch of the natural history provided by God to the world in a kind of abstract summary given to inform humanity of general parameters until they were smart or learned enough to understand that.

Noah may have known the farming trade and given his sons Shem, Ham and Japheth the knowledge of farming and vine-keeping. They were sent out into the world to mix with a pre-existing population apparently. Earlier Cain who killed his brother Abel was cast out yet protected by a mark warning others not to kill him. He journeyed east of Eden, and perhaps north to the area of the fertile Crescent that gave rise to settlements like Göbekli Tepe and several others by 800 B.C.; city sites given names like Tel Caramel, Abu Huraya, Jerf El Ahmar, Karahan Tepe, Urfa, Cayonu and Nevali Cori. Maybe Cain farther east and organized people in his own way and the sons of Noah reached the settlements like Göbekli Tepe and Jericho. They have have brought significant cultural changes as missionary priests although the continuity was lost over passing millennia.

Jericho was a great for the era farming community with a different kind of pagan focus on Earth Mud-mother neo-dieties- maybe a different son had a different effect on the locals than the hunting nomads of Göbekli Tepe. Maybe the locals of Jericho took the agriculture knowledge and threw out the part about God. The first tower known to history was built excavated in Jericho. It is perhaps 30 feet tall- a speaking pulpit for an interesting, informative, edifying son of Noah?

It as of course much later when Abraham was called from Sumer to travel out of Southern Mesopotamia to journey north- as late as 2000 B.C. So it is easy to understand the great amount of time that was passed between a possible place-time for Adam and Eve during the middle of the end of the Wisconsin 18,000- 12,000 B.C.) until the bronze age (3300 B.C. to 1200 B.C.) and the Iron Age when David and Solomon lived.

One may interpret the Bible and history in numerous ways because the reference object to words and time become rather vague with time. One might find the work of Saul Kripke in 'Naming and Necessity’ add W.V.O. Quine in ‘Ontological Relativity and other Essays’ interesting and informative on the realist vs. nominalist nature of words and lexicons of language).

An Organization's Charter is Its Dogma or Purpose

 Dogma virtually is organizational structure. It is accepted 'truth', policy and purpose. Cadre are programmed politically and act upon the policy without thinking. It happens in government a lot. There is serial and ossified praxis and organizational purpose- aka 'dogma', is also praxis. One has the dogma of Wal-mart if employed by them, or of the Democrat Party, Communist or Anarchist parties with their agenda. If working for an oil corporation one may be an unbeliever in global warming. If a Nazi one is a holocaust denier etc. Even secret organizations have dogma; the Illuminati, Bohemian Club, Skull and Bones and the Cult of Bullwinkle at the Moose Lodge.

Is dogma the cause of conflict? Sartre might have associated dogma with ossified praxis. That is the implicit nature of social organization; structure entails operating form and parameters. Saddam Hussein was a tyrant like Hobbes' leviathan. Hard to remove yet he needed to be gone. The Iraq war was deplorable in several respects. GW Bush said reconstruction would cost 50 billion and the actual cost was trillions. Radical Muslims and werewolves made the war after the war go on for years. 50,000 Iraqis were perishing under UN sanctions before the war and that needed to end. So it was either war or let Hussein go Scot free.

A sociology 101 course reveals some of the structural differences in social organization; for instance, the differences between patriarchal and matriarchal societies. Even so the concentration of wealth renders democracy somewhat moot, as plutonomy develops. Meanwhile mass media manipulates masses for the benefit of the rich, while national religious extremism in underdeveloped societies is a form of populism that rivals political power of elites. Palestine tends toward a patriarchy under organized crime more so than national democracy. The world is far more f'd up than is commonly realized, and Joe Biden does not remember being Vice President according to Special Counsel Hur.

President Biden Doesn't Remember 2009-2017 VP days

 Special Council Robert Hur appointed by Merrick Garland interviewed the President for five hours and determined that the President can't remember when he was Vice President between 2009 and 2017. Probably he doesn't remember campaign promises either.

Dirt at the End of the Rainbow (a poem)

 

Dirt drifts in the wind
piling up like like poems
waiting for rain
to become glorious mud

Mud in your eye
the jealous eye of the beholder
resting in splendid repose
an eyestalk tall
extruding meters from the ground
where AI may see all that can be

Myriad creatures scurry and worry
fretfully finding crumbs
adequate for never-when
never known
particles of dust
in the wind to begin

Clinging to wheels mud is the deal
it shapes mysterious norms
conforms all blings to ring tone echoes
raps that whir
howling through sagebrush
cowboy poetry ranched
punching cattle

Greenest tiny growth
grass emotes
everyplace like an ocean
rearranging tan, sallow yellow bricks of colors
closest things to freeze dried dead
past punchers placed patterns
breaking trails for electronic fences
mending meaningless dividers for gold coins

To spend or not to spend
that is the question
weather it is colder hailing
or enduring outrageous rain
dirt doth show the snow
the way to flow
with freezes past
left to the summits of myths

Clods of time compacting past
warm flatness of high desert plains
with mountains able lost tectonic orogeny
well rounded to host remorseless dirt
electrostatic strong force brethren
coating fields with fixed sentient things
pretending rhymes with reasons
presence need be and become
tomorrow
with the will to outlast lush
verdant urges that overcomes senses
wherein politics rush
social piles of bones built
Nemissoolatakoos
overcome by the great spirit’s rivers
-Heraclitus never stepping in the same Universe
twice.

The Final Boss (poem)


The final boss
goat poet prospects grazing
the field of dreams where raising
with dross sludge of poems befudged
are myriad cantilevered verses breathing
with life given from amateur hopes
beside Browning, Yeats, Keats and Pope

  One final toss
a shimmering sonnet
the dark lady’s legs
below the mysterious bonnet
Wallace Steven’s insurance
provides countless sharp notes
to Wesli Court’s forerunning peer
the final boss;
William Shakespeare.

Dictum de Gödel (poem)


Would a dictum de omni for Gödel's paradigm
fill a set of all sets with doubts laid to rest?
satisfy a build up with many theories and means
parameters for testing material scenes
like 256 forms of syllogistic A, I, E, O dreams
where just twenty-four valid ones form proper tests
and reply with lyre's ballad rhymed lyrics
everything in the cosmos proves to critics
whirring levels of black-bird spun trees
chastise silence to spring quantum string mystics.

Another Three Guys Joke

 Three guys rob a bank in Washington D.C. one at a time (they are Democrats). The first guy was from South Sudan. He pointed a gun at the teller and said' "Give me all your lunches."

The second guy walked in- a twelve year old hacker with an addiction and said; "Give me all your bitcoin".

The third guy, a Chinese dude, walked in to the bank, pointed a gun at the teller and said; "Give me all your I.O.U.s".
