The transition of PGWB’s 43 administration into a .44 Mag administration makes some waves for the political analyst. The first term was reoriented with a national disaster to set the agenda, while the second term has been inaugurated with an international disaster visited mostly upon low-lying Muslim coastal areas.
Certainly the administration has a larger than life qualify of straining credibility about it. It’s international relations policy was led in the state department by a former General familiar enough with international corpses to survey the recent tsunami regions and provide astounding comments and relief coordination. It is uncertain that his successor, NSA Rice is sufficiently experienced at international death to provide a diplomatic posture equal to that of Secretary Powell. Adviser Rice was bloodied a bit in the confusing World Trade Center disaster of course, yet it is hardly in Secretary Powell’s league.
Thus I shall use a Tabloidist’s analytical approach in considering the administration’s possible role in causing the tsunami to make a wave surge to get through its first year in the second term…
Does the technology exist to enable big evil empirical political disasters that stretch public credulity so far as to be in the Loch Ness League? Could a neutron bomb primer have set off the tsunami-causing earthquake in the Indian Ocean?
Arab newspaper od/eds reported that the U.S. Government did cause the earthquake that brought about the deaths of 160,000 people so far. Secretary Powell and the State Department team is veteran at death and blackop/bops of course, yet they may be entirely innocent and only acting as apologetic buzzards circling over the fields of bodies.
It could seem to some fundamentalist Muslims yearning to overthrow their corrupt governments allied with OPEC/AUTOS/BUSHES that the U.S. is a Satanic power seeking to subsume all individual liberty beneath techtonic plates of transnational corporate power. In the United States even, political dissent from transnational rule is apt to bring one into the focus of broadcast media and oil sycophants as an ‘Indian’ or some other disparaging appellation. Transnational Corporate power demands political fealty for promotion and prosperity in any nation. In fundamentalist revolutionary movements the U.S.A. is ordinarily credited with being the source of transnational or Globalist political power unfortunately.
Was the Captain of the U.S. San Francisco that ran aground in the Indian Ocean recently, actually struggling with resistance against transgalactic alien body-mind control directed by the covert former Loch Ness Alliance and present Ogo Pogo Klan members working with the alien film production center in Los Angeles?
Does former President Bush-41 continue to secretly meet with giant squid deep beneath Kennebunkeport in a subterranean lair providing clandestine access to the Atlantic’s deepest reaches? Are those meetings with Ogo Pogo Klansexttraterretrials that are not made available for public review under the freedom of information act the true cause of the tsunami-generating earthquake coordinated by work affiliated with the U.S. San Francisco submarine battle group?
Has the administration opened the gates of heck in order to avoid have rotten peaches tossed at them by the Congress?

Theocracies, Democracies and clearings.
I read an article in a recent issue of Foreign Affairs that illustrated the virtues of withdrawing from Iraq sooner rather than later. I tended to agree with the points of the article, that were analogized in an example of Spain circa 1800 and later Italy in which the peasants rejected an offer of democracy and liberation to support their ecclesiastical and feudal overlords. Race and culture prevailed over liberation. people get ignorant and vote aginst the foreigners and for the local demogogies, or vote by associating in the pack-mob with explosives and Kalashnikovs.
One of the false assumptions about democracy is that people will vote for it de novo. I believe that is incorrect. They will revolt de novo perhaps; yet not establish a democratic society. A democratic society needs some sort of elite to guide it through a Republican phase (no reference to the U.S. federal sort intended, it has gone to the seed of neo-Corporatism). Britains democracy took 600 years to evolve to the point of reaching ordinary people much. Iraq hasn't had 600 years although the Stalinist-Saddamite meatgrinder eliminates tribalism quicker than that.
Iraq has no sponsoring elite to guide it. Some might say that socialism is a preparation for democracy, yet I would say that socialism is more of a preparation for neo-Corporatism than for individuality.
The nations around Iraq will fear anarchy and civil war, and will intervene to force some sort of authority. It is notable that fundamentalist terrorist will fight Americans simply because they are Americans and wear expensive perfume the Arabs don’t like.
The U.S.A. would suffer fewer casualties by invading every few years if a terrorist government forms than by camping in Iraq to wheedle oil from a puppet regime.
Yet of course, the present Iraqi election and government should be given U.S. military assistance and support for some 6 months or so as a draw down occurs. Integrating Iraqi military forces with a populist Iraqi Government should be the main objective for some time. An orderly withdrawal of American forces over the next year at a regular pace would help to convince the people of Iraq that the U.S.A. presence isn’t an occupying power but was instead a liberating Army.
Democracies that formed spontaneously and without corruption would require a human nature that is beyond earthly ability. Each individual would need to meet with the others and recognize the fundamental inalienable human rights of the others; in fact that sort of Utopia never happens associated with a particular geographic region.
Another requirement of Democracies are that they must be exclusive of some others. In ancient Athens there was a very limited enfranchisement. Some few citizens that did vote equally enslaved the remainder basically. In the modern democracies enfranchisement is limited or conditional, or the nations are isolated, remote, militarily strong or in the process of failing. A Democracy is limited to a specific class of individuals named citizens that have full decision-making power over their geographic region, or it is not a democracy. Vast influxes of illegal aliens over porous borders, aloof Globalist rulers and etc. are not supports for a democratic society.
Autocracy, neo-Corporatists Globalism, Communism, International Socialism, borderless capitalism, a royal power or secular ecclesiastical governments with a catholic inclusion are each inimical to a self-determining democratic society in several characteristic including those of going over-the-borders of individuality and law. The borderless broadcast media is an essential corrupter of individual and civil rights of democrats.
The Roman Empire was definitely not democratic, although the populism of bread and circuses for the mob or middle class effectively satisfied some of the popular restiveness.
In the United States some of the Christian Commercial broadcast media seems virtually a sycophantic tool of Satan’s broadcast media phenomena in that they do support entirely worldly political policies that have no relevance to the Bible at all. At some point quite early real Christian ideas and work separate from politics and worldliness, yet the broadcasters always return to political spin and even social terrorism.
That isn’t a new phenomena. The Catholic Church in the dark ages became too worldly and political and it continued until a downhill slide began a few centuries ago. The Bush Christian commercial sympcasters seem to choose out whatever sermons will support their Patron or attack his political enemies, and that is the trouble. Even if Bush supported a couple of Christian values, he also opposes political values such as environmentalism and economic rights of poor Americans that are of meaning to many Christians not enfeofed and nurtured by the Republican Party.
It is a paradox that some Commercial Christian Broadcasters may lead some to faith yet themselves be lost to worldliness. I now begin to understand why Senator McCain took that turn away from the Virginia Beach crowd in the 2000 primary, rather disastrously before the SC run. They have gone overboard in moving toward a false Christian political alliance with Globalist political forces.
Christians can assert their political values plainly, yet they must do so in a non-partisan way. They cannot afford to sign off like idiotic blank check party ticket voters thus rubber-stamping approval of all sorts of daft and evil policies they cannot understand. It is an unfortunate thing that some commercial Christian are too loud spoken on political areas, perhaps using extracts of the Bible to support their political points, because they are not political scientists, competent historians, liberal scholars of western civilization etc. in many issues simply sabotaging progress and human rights that have been paid for in blood over the millennia. They have the cold-blooded arrogant political idiocy to attack liberlaism to the point of nihilation instead of trying to rescue it from the sewer through which the flag has been dragged in recent decades of homsexuality, drugs, prositution, socialism and so forth.
Instead of daft party support Christian broadcasters should just support issues they are comfortable with and hope for candidates and parties that will include those within a moral context.
If the Republicans ran a candidate with a surgically altered blue forked tongue that was against abortion but was pro-logging and for drilling ANWR, would Pat Robertson support him? Christian commercial broadcasters need to express moral and Biblical issues, yet remain unaffiliated in order to avoid being manipulated by worldly forces into simply supporting the rich and most powerful and all times as they do seem to do presently in parts of the U.S.A.
The political choices in America are not legally limited to just debauchocrats or Globalist republicans as the sycophant broadcasters seem to believe. Expressing objective opinions about politics instead of Partisan ones can allow other political developments to occur that might be consistent with the nation’s constitution, democratic history and other economic advantages in addition to the protection of moral values. Commercial christain broadcasters in being so worldly, conniving and political extreme in association with Globalist Republicans put a lot of pressure on real Christians relying on the Bible instead of broadcasts that should not occur.
I hope that the blood lust of many commercial Christian broadcasters to follow the Bush administration and annex Iraq onto Global oil’s branch of neo-Corporatism will not produce a blind-lust for extended deployment of American forces in Iraq far beyond the upcoming Iraqi election.
The potential to restructure Iraq with international intervention should the new government fail to defend itself and a civil war ensues exists. A new international support structure could follow. I do not know why anyone believes that it is in America’s best interests now to maintain a large military presence in that nation. Iraq probably will move ahead as a commercial nation that will want freedom to travel, trade and prosper for its citizens. The U.S.A. cannot force it and should not try even if some misguided sycophants of Global Oil believe it must.

" I am Mr William Wei,Bank Manager, Bank Of Overseas Chinese North Shyn LinDistrict, Taipei, Taiwan. I have urgent and very confidential businessproposition for you.On June 6, 1999, a British Oil consultant/contractor with the Chinese SolidMinerals Corporation, Mr. David Abel made a Fixed Deposit of the sum ofUS$10,000,000.00 (Ten Million United States Dollars) which accumulated to thesum of US$20,160,176.00 (Twenty Million, One hundred and sixty thousand, Onehundred and seventy six United States Dollars for twelve calendar months in mybranch.I sent a routine notification to his forwarding address but got no reply.After a month, we sent a reminder and finally we discovered from his contractemployers, the Chinese Solid Minerals Corporation that Mr. David Abel diedfrom an automobile accident. On further investigation, I found out that hedied without making a WILL, and all attempts to trace his next of kin wasfruitless.I therefore made further investigation and discovered that Mr. DavidAbel did not declare any kin or relations in all his official documents,including his Bank Deposit paperwork in my Bank. This sum of US$20,160,176.00is still sitting in my Bank and the interest is being rolled over with theprincipal sum at the end of each year. No one will ever come forward to claimit.Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a foreigner to stand inas the next of kin to Mr.David Abel so that the fruits of this old man's laborwill not get into the hands of some corrupt government officials. This issimple, I will like you to provide immediately your full names and address sothat the attorney will prepare the necessary documents and affidavits thatwill put you in place as the next of kin.We shall employ the services of an attorney for drafting and notarization ofthe WILL and to obtain the necessary documents and letter ofprobate/administration in your favor for the transfer. A bank account in anypart of the world that you will provide will then facilitate the transfer ofthis money to you as the beneficiary/next of kin.There is no risk at all as all the paperwork for this transaction will be doneby the attorney and my position as the Branch Manager guarantees thesuccessful execution of this transaction. If you are interested, please replyimmediately via the private email addressabove. Upon your response, I shall then provide you with more details andrelevant documents that will help you understand the transaction.Please send me your confidential telephone and fax numbers for easycommunication.Please observe utmost confidentiality, and rest assured thatthis transaction would be most profitable for both of us because I shallrequire your assistance to invest my share in your country.Awaiting your urgent replyThanks and regards,Mr.William Wei."
Dear Mr. Wei; yes, certainly I would be happy to receive 20 million dollars or whatever moneys you have to get rid of, if there are no laws against theft or embezzlement in Taiwan and international laws do not preclude the transaction you proposed. I am sure I can find something to do with it.
I recommend that you first purchase a few thousand copies of my books at http://www.lulu.com/GaryCGibson and distribute them to your friends in Asia so they may learn of the political and spiritual situation in the United States. The webpage and books have all the information you may need to transfer your wealth over this way. The state of Texas may be three time losers in delivering a photo ID card to me so I can get a job (they should issue it directly in the office without trusting the U. S. Postal Service), but my books above internet store have it all. If you prime the pump with some book acquisitions, I will open a savings account in Texas that you can send the money to.
I should let you know, Mr. Wei, in all confidentiality, that I once was employed by a company that was later bought by Mr.Cheyney while head of Halliburton.
I have a few development ideas about manufacturing aluminum 4 wheeled 'bikes' that could have a low wind profile and high average speed with shocks for use in Asian nations, they could be manufactured in China.

Comment on selected Social Security Reform Criteria & Public Computer Structures
President Bush's 4% solution for social security private sector investment failed to mention more than one substantive criteria; the necessary condition that the private sector investments could not be spent before retirement age, and then within a rational, scaled withdrawl quantity.
Poor and middle class Americans will spend their private sector inestments before retirement age thye first time they are unemployed, and then the state will face the additional burden of replacing those lost investments eventually to meet the basic reasons for having social security to start with.
The rich and well-to-do in the administration seem to forget that easy, long term stock investment security and growth strategies fail for the unemployed that need to spend the money for food, housing or for the middle class, a bigger SUV than their neighbor, or a 30,000 dollar plasma TV.
I will leave off this subject at this point.
Regarding public computers.
The maintainance costs of public library computer networks and their upgrading might be increased, I will venture to guess, by eliminating so many individual computers and replacing them with wirless dumb terminals enabled to connect to a few or just one quality computer maintained by the library.
Perhaps a rack of disk drives associated with the specific terminals would be useful, as might flat screen vdts.
The public library assisstant Igors or quankearls that make the hardware malfunctions of public computers and corrections 50% of their feudal turf domain leverage would be more restricted from spamming online time with offline 'advice' if wireless terminals and the remote compyters were streamlined into a reduced technical configuration that is more trouble-free. Sometimes public computer usage resembles that of a bad a bad hominid encampment wherein a motivated ape raves too much for ego reasons instead of a modern American environbment
Breaking free of evil and retarding social structures is of course one of the perennially difficult challenges that an American citizen may encounter. of course one wants to eliminate inhibiting social factors fom the public environment so far as possible when they negatively impact the fundamental social strcutures that are implicitly an elements of the United States constitutional parameters.
President Bush with his personal Igor nominee for Attorney General now being reviewed by the in-house inquisition review board has exemplified the negative national drift toward a fundamenatal disrespect for human libert. The evasive and disingenuous answers of the nominee toward questions regarding totrure seemed more appropirate for a wise guy with the training of a consigliary than for an Attorney General.
A forthright candidate for Attorney general should have answerd plain questions honestly and directly. The training for evasiveness may serve a criminal attorney quite well, yet it is not appropriate for a gentleman seeking to represent the legal interests of the people of the United States at the top of the Department of Justice. Plain speaking and integrity should exist in the government at least at the executive level.
The trend toward disingenuity in a new era of politics may negatively impact American plans to schedule a withdrawl of forces from Iraq in an orderly manner after the election. Iraqis will need to have the will to take up their own security or their own civil wars, perhaps we should assist the Kurds toward autonomy in that event, in the near future.

Cosmology and Creationism etc.
With more time available for reading than earning, I have ventured farther into some of those fields of interest to virtually anybody, but restricted to those with practical opportunities for research.
Here are a few ideas about some of the contents of the articles and reports I noticed.
1) On the notion that 3-foot tall homo erectus creatures living on some remote Indonesian isle until just 18,000 years ago (discovered skeletal remains in a cave last year); it seems credible to me. Those creatures with brain cases of 400 cubic centimeters compared to homo sapiens sapiens 1500 cc (I hope I got that right and didn’t down size the volume signs a lot) must have been utterly fearful of the brute, killer homo sapiens and have been motivated to hide out as far as possible from the encroaching people. With the fundamental intelligence of sort-of-humans they survived 30,000 years after the sapiens sapiens began arriving on the island. The Homo erectus would have been a sort of mini-Sasquatch species not finally exterminated until fairly recently. It’s interesting to note that mankind’s human nature hasn’t changed much.
2) On the still indecipherable Indus ‘Language script’ (Science 17 Dec 2004 page 2026). I will provide by own interpretation of what the symbols mean (of course I could be wrong having only read the article for background and using just the few pictured examples as a data base). The Indus civilization symbols are an early effort at symbolic logic. I am not surprised that later Indians invented the zero. It is basically a math-group recognition pattern given by the royal authority (or cluster authority) to various tribes or groups. On page 2028 the symbol for three is pictured in five or six different configurations if I recollect the article accurately. The inventive beauty of one of the three’s results in a Venn diagram verisimilitude the center oval being smaller than the larger two. I would guess that the location above a bull for instance, would represent alliance or time priority. Notably, since all of the script is found in dumps evidently, its use was pragmatic and probably utilized in trade. The structure of the civilization seems to support a clustering of free enterprisers with a business rather than a literary or spiritual orientation such as might develop a language.
3) This one is about the 7 billion number significant in Cosmology and perhaps significant in theoretical creationism too. Reading Brian Greene’s book ‘The Fabric of the Cosmos’ partially, I’ve encountered a description of a theory regarding the origin of the Universe in what might be called a post-standard big bang model theory, or a revised standard version of the big bang perhaps.
The Big Bang was postulated the last third of the 20th century to have been a physics explanation of the origin of the Universe. People tended to believe that a large clump of matter blew up tremendously, long ago flinging particles all over empty space that later were drawn together by gravity into stars galaxies etc.
Now the better theories are that the Big Bang wasn’t the beginning, and that instead of vast concentration of mass being blown apart initially into empty space, a small amount of material-perhaps 20 pounds of it, initially in a very, very small size scale, experienced some sort of quantum probability phase transition that made a Higgs Field (read B. Greene’s book) hyperinflate creating space-time and matter eventually.
Yet to utilize brevity, onto the 7 billion number. The inflaton happened at the 10-35 time period (that’s ten to the minus Thirty-fifth). It had a Higgs Field that produced repulsive gravity that had inflated the Universe. Yet after the initial expansion gravity resumed its usual dominance and the particles did clump into galaxies etc, the expansion of space-time slowed. Yet after seven billion years a cosmological constant, or residual Higgs Field reaccelerated the Universe. It is now increasing expansion based on observations and theory.
Scientists haven’t got an accurate enough idea of what existed before the big bang or inflaton, perhaps it occurred from a fringe of pre-existing space some theorize.
Genesis in the Bible posits the Word as existing and stirring the waters, the word is given to let there be light…etc. and the Universe is finished in seven days.
Considering only event parameters, I compare those of cosmology and Genesis creation similar in a logical sort of way…an original prime mover, a work of creation/inflaton, completion of project in seven time periods. If the Petrine value of a day to God equals one thousand years is used for Usher’s genealogy from Genesis literally one arrives at the time of the creation of the earth at about the moment science postulates.
The 7 days of creation are just representative symbols for the comprehension of primitive mankind I might guess. With special relativity demonstrating that space-time is a fact of individuality, to God a billion years might be nominally represented by a day.
From creation elements to final destiny being flung outward into higher entropy states its interesting that cosmology and interpretation of ancient documents in reflection of increased archeological and anthropological investigations have permitted a harmonization of meaning elements in Christianity and Cosmology. I never was much of a schismatist between science and Christianity since I have confidence that God's word is true, and it would not deceive, and that especially the natural history of the Universe would not be in conflict with the word of God.
The trouble with scientific cosmologies is that they are always incomplete and impartial, seeing through a glass darkly, as it were. One cannot rely upon scientific theories to explain the few paragraphs of Creation data in the book of Genesis.
7 is an important number in other Biblical areas besides Creation, the Temple was destroyed in 70 ad forming a nice parallel between the ending of the old order of the world's way of temple worship and the ending of the Universe's way of gravitational subjugation since the inflation or big bang to one that features a resumptive Higgs Field outward repulsive gravitational force. Jesus prophesied the destruction of the Temple. Its all quite interesting. The indeterminacy of translation affects many areas of ancient scholarship and comparative studies I'd venture to guess. There are many other instances of 7 being used in the Bible.
Perhaps I should mention, for the benefit of some of those familiar with Babylonian creation 'myths', that are more rightly understood as primitive efforts at scientific or existential cosmologies, that right through Enlil and Tilman to Gilgamesh, that Genesis is remarkably without error, embellishment and so forth when one uses time paradigms that were appropriate for the comprehension of those of that era.
To many of the peoples of the ancient world, the concept 'entire world' meant as far as they could walk in three days, or everything in the region. Some ancient peoples and even moderns as recently as the 20th century had no time concepts for the past at all...that may be a difficult thing for moderns to understand. If God was explaining what 7 billion years of creation to primitives, wouldn't seven 'days' do well enough to get the point across, that he was powerful and laid down the Universe in a right and proper order, resting on the seventh and letting the Higgs Field cosmological constant do the rest?
I believe it is only after the entry of Abraham that the Bible has nearly entire literal meaning though it still has deep prophetic and representational values. Adam or adamas (brown dirt) might have referred to a genre of individuals, the four Cherubim guarding the gates of Eden might have meant the four space-time dimensions of existence for pre-scientific, primitive mankind. The flood of the entire world of Noah might well have been that of the tale of Gilgamesh retold in that language somewhat differently of course. Ancient storms and rains with a higher sea level might well have drown a primitive civilization entirely...a horrific fate that a faithful shipbuilder with a will to do what God said could have escaped being blow up to the mountains of Urartu (the Jews transliterate that Kingdom's name into Ararat from which later mountains in Turkey were named) somewhat northeast of the Euphrates/Tigris lowlands.
The Jewish exodus was perhaps eased by the withdrawal of the Red Sea for their passage returned as a tsunami upon pursuing Egyptian military forces in a possible explanation for the parting of the waters described in the Old Testament.
The subject of scientific cosmology and Biblical Creation is one that can provide many opportunities for learning.
Here are a few ideas about some of the contents of the articles and reports I noticed.
1) On the notion that 3-foot tall homo erectus creatures living on some remote Indonesian isle until just 18,000 years ago (discovered skeletal remains in a cave last year); it seems credible to me. Those creatures with brain cases of 400 cubic centimeters compared to homo sapiens sapiens 1500 cc (I hope I got that right and didn’t down size the volume signs a lot) must have been utterly fearful of the brute, killer homo sapiens and have been motivated to hide out as far as possible from the encroaching people. With the fundamental intelligence of sort-of-humans they survived 30,000 years after the sapiens sapiens began arriving on the island. The Homo erectus would have been a sort of mini-Sasquatch species not finally exterminated until fairly recently. It’s interesting to note that mankind’s human nature hasn’t changed much.
2) On the still indecipherable Indus ‘Language script’ (Science 17 Dec 2004 page 2026). I will provide by own interpretation of what the symbols mean (of course I could be wrong having only read the article for background and using just the few pictured examples as a data base). The Indus civilization symbols are an early effort at symbolic logic. I am not surprised that later Indians invented the zero. It is basically a math-group recognition pattern given by the royal authority (or cluster authority) to various tribes or groups. On page 2028 the symbol for three is pictured in five or six different configurations if I recollect the article accurately. The inventive beauty of one of the three’s results in a Venn diagram verisimilitude the center oval being smaller than the larger two. I would guess that the location above a bull for instance, would represent alliance or time priority. Notably, since all of the script is found in dumps evidently, its use was pragmatic and probably utilized in trade. The structure of the civilization seems to support a clustering of free enterprisers with a business rather than a literary or spiritual orientation such as might develop a language.
3) This one is about the 7 billion number significant in Cosmology and perhaps significant in theoretical creationism too. Reading Brian Greene’s book ‘The Fabric of the Cosmos’ partially, I’ve encountered a description of a theory regarding the origin of the Universe in what might be called a post-standard big bang model theory, or a revised standard version of the big bang perhaps.
The Big Bang was postulated the last third of the 20th century to have been a physics explanation of the origin of the Universe. People tended to believe that a large clump of matter blew up tremendously, long ago flinging particles all over empty space that later were drawn together by gravity into stars galaxies etc.
Now the better theories are that the Big Bang wasn’t the beginning, and that instead of vast concentration of mass being blown apart initially into empty space, a small amount of material-perhaps 20 pounds of it, initially in a very, very small size scale, experienced some sort of quantum probability phase transition that made a Higgs Field (read B. Greene’s book) hyperinflate creating space-time and matter eventually.
Yet to utilize brevity, onto the 7 billion number. The inflaton happened at the 10-35 time period (that’s ten to the minus Thirty-fifth). It had a Higgs Field that produced repulsive gravity that had inflated the Universe. Yet after the initial expansion gravity resumed its usual dominance and the particles did clump into galaxies etc, the expansion of space-time slowed. Yet after seven billion years a cosmological constant, or residual Higgs Field reaccelerated the Universe. It is now increasing expansion based on observations and theory.
Scientists haven’t got an accurate enough idea of what existed before the big bang or inflaton, perhaps it occurred from a fringe of pre-existing space some theorize.

An Anecdotal Cold Weather Commentary
Perhaps it’s the time of year to write about cold weather, having lived in a 3 foot high tent in the 48 contiguous states for about 8 of the last ten years, and before that maybe 15 years in Alaska (not in a tent all the time), the subject of maintaining adequate internal body temperature out of doors is familiar.
This will be a brief sketch of some elemental experiences instead of a definitive portrayal of cold weather effects as perhaps one might find in a U.S. Army survival manual. Army rangers in training have actually experienced hypothermia in Florida while training. It is possible to develop hypothermic body cooling in any combination of conditions that lower the skin and eventually body temperature.
Cold encroaches from the extremities such as the feet and head in many instances. There is, incidentally, probably nothing worse than starving and freezing at the same time. The prisoners of the Gulag Archipelago really had it rough.
Water is 300 times thicker than air and will remove body heat 300 times faster. If one’s sleeping bag and clothing becomes wet, in some case, especially if the temperature subsequently drops to near or below freezing, it may be difficult to avoid hypothermia.
Most Americans have indoor lifestyles complemented by mechanized luxury wheelchairs to flit about the continent, and are essentially clueless or even disdainful of notion about how to conserve body temperature relying upon one’s own resources. Karl Castle of NPR News today spun such a trim-splice onto a report about the plains snowstorms not realize that it is better in tenting to have dry snow over one’s tent than near freezing rain saturating everything including one’s clothing. All those people living indoors anywhere in the north perhaps spend less time depending on their own warmth resources in a lifetime than homeless people may encounter in a year.
There are many ways of experiencing cold weather injuries. Once in Alaska I traveled through streams and deep wet snow before becoming lost, praying, and finding my way to a trail leading to a road. Yet packing one’s feet in water slush for a day caused them two or three days later to swell perhaps double the girth. I purchased some larger, wide tennis sneaker to wear temporarily.
Of course regular frostbite, a different injury though similar perhaps in causing sensation and circulation in the feet and an increased susceptibility to cold weather injury, is simply a consequence of direct dry cold most often with the extremities simply freezing thoroughly. A rogue Soviet Colonel used to freeze dry the arms of captives for interrogation upon the roof of a five story building in Mongolia by outstretching a bare arm and pouring water on it. Then the Colonel, if dissatisfied with captive responses, would just snap off the arm.
The nose is most easily frozen, especially the tip. One should have a fur lined underwear if male in extremely cold weather. If one does not cover the ears, they will freeze very easily, if it’s not too serious the thawing out experience is something like having a firecracker blow up in one’s hand. In Fairbanks I bounced off the walls of a building lobby in which I was looking to rent an apartment when my ears suddenly began thawing out.
Of course staying away from water, and remaining healthy is important in cold weather. Water is fundamentally, death. Regardless of it being the 32 degree waters of a stream through which one may plunge through the ice or offshore in the ocean. Bailing water is cold weather is especially hazardous. Colds, flu and other illnesses may give one chills and ill-feeling is good weather, in cold wet weather it becomes a worse experience.
Something people forget is that starting warm from the indoors, putting on warm clothing and shoes does not remove any body heat initially when outdoors. Putting on freezing boots and clothing, or cold wet boots and clothing, requires the body heat be used for drying out the garments as best they can; a energy investment the body cannot in some circumstances afford.
There were once two hitchhikers just outside the city limits sign of Rock Springs Wyoming that were overcome by a whiteout/blizzard that suddenly blew up. Being unable to find their right sense of direction and return to town they froze to death, the story goes. Many modern clothing articles that have better waterproofing that isn’t harmed by folding and emplacement in a rucksack have been produced in recent years and occasionally make their way to thrift shops and the homeless. The iron filing air combustible personal heat warmers are available at two for 88 cents at Big Lots Stores. They are invaluable in dry cold in burning for more than 7 hours in and inside shirt pocket.
Hands on bicycle grips become a notable difficulty in cold weather. Gloves are very useless, unless they are arctic gloves perhaps as I would guess were worn by a student at U.A.F. once in riding to college all winter (I walked). Mittens are much better, especially gore-tex mittens that resist water a bit. Abandon cotten socks firstly if travelling to a continuous sub-freezing environment, or one that is cold and wet conducive to hypothermia. Repairing flats is much more difficult in cold or wet conditions, imagine the heat indoors at some distant Federal Studio and do the best you can.
The fundamental problem with poverty camping in the U.S.A. is that for safety and other considerations it must be entirely cold camping in which one cannot improve one’s tactical situation at all- no fires, no lean to’s over the tent, no mud brick manufacture to construct arched and vaulted ceiling in the desert. The indoor people have a world and social reality of their own that provides a definite context to the outdoors individual.

The Fabric of the Universe by Brian Greene
I’d like to give a partial review of Brian Greene’s 2004 book on physics and cosmology named ‘Fabric of the Cosmos’. If this one doesn’t win a Pulitzer Prize I can’t imagine what will-it won’t be my book of poems ‘A Place for Faith I am sure.
The entire history of the cosmos is reviewed, as are the special and general theories of relativity, Higgs Fields, hyperinflation, quantum entanglement, the cosmic constant, the scale and size of the Universe and so forth. While the Elegant Universe was a brilliant book on popular physics that narrowly missed the Pulitzer Prize, this one probably goes over the top.
I developed some science fiction ideas after reading 300 of the 494 pages. One could have gluon drive perhaps that would remember the quantum elements of the spaceship while converting it to a massless form. I believe the special theory of relativity principle would classify photons and massless particles as not experiencing time when at light speed. Yet for science fiction speculators, I believe that actual aliens would travel by quantum wave probability superposition and remote entanglement if possible instead of through clunky material spaceships. Of course quantum wavefields may be subject to interdiction by God I should think, whom could observe all of the probability waves, know there position and velocity and not interfere with so. It’s hard to say.
Yet Brian Greene’s book of course hasn’t much science fiction although it’s rather wittily put together. This is the best primer for cosmology available I would think.

Some Southwest Times
I cannot believe how hostile some of the Hispanics are in New Mexico, purely upon a racial basis. Evidently they will use any excuse possible to publicly harass and threaten any time they feel the time is opportune. I’d like to say it’s rare, yet it is very common.
Their expanding numbers blimp their self-opinions so far as to train them to be very aggressive in specialized circumstance. Of course the aloof Bush administration wouldn’t have a clue about that. They have grown in privilege and ignorance.
I feel the trend of Hispanics toward intersocial terrorism (not of the Al Qa’eda sort-it isn’t necessary) will continue as the absence of intelligent political authority drives the United States increasing under British management authority as an aspect of global Corporations. The British and Global Corporatists need an increasing working population malleable politically for transnational corporate expansion. The Hispanics of course abuse poor whites, deriding bikes as ‘trikes’ while they, with their idiotic educations dedicated to pure fossil fuel autos and producing children, will do their best to frame up a white guy for legal trimming. They should find out how nice a bike is compared to walking. The state of Texas and the post office could not even deliver an ID card for me in 5 months last year and this. It is quite malodorous…and that is in the coldest and wettest, darkest days of winter, while one is enduring colds and tenting. Their hate training does effectively increase their feelings of power, what can one do politically?
I remember in the late 60’s and early 70’s the British had more products, they were more productive industrially than today it seems for the export market. After the conclusive loss of their empire they seem to have restructured migrating into international financial and corporate markets to replace their former colonial revenue producing investments. If one compares Japan’s material productivity to Japan’s, the Britain’s unfavorable balance is especially remarkable. I believe Britain makes a lot of money through manipulating, or perhaps that’s too strong a word, through investing in American companies and transnational companies as they have historically. Britain makes money on the capital market.
With the paucity of competent U.S. political leadership these days the nation is suffering a number of financial reverses with no end in sight until 2008 perhaps. With 3 million Hispanics annually migrating to the U.S.A. jobs can be created and filled, wages drop, while the deficits increase satisfying Global Corporate much more than U.S. interests. George Bush is a lackey of Global Corporations and the Brits in particular my theory goes, yet we did help the Brits out in world war one and two, after they’d burned the capital in 1812 in reaction to our burning some provincial capital in Canada perhaps, so understandably we owe them quite a lot.
It must be a convenient thing to for Global Corporate to have a U.S. President that will support Global interests more so than U.S. domestic interests. He will seek to plunder ANWR and make the nation forever dependent upon foreign and frequently OPEC oil when it is quickly tapped out. I find it amusing that anyone believes the oil companies would not in some future time tighten the drilling screws again to penetrate every remaining area on the North Slope when the price is right. The public is so malleable and gullible, or more accurately indifferent too much.
The administration will support every wrong, backward and inefficient industry possible while corrupting the environment to help the Global Corporate velocity of money increase. Since it doesn’t go to me specifically, I have little motivation in supporting the outsourcing of my own capital acquisition opportunities to just anybody else the administration feels is acceptable to the elitist clique’s designs.
Well, the inauguration of the goons will occur once again, so the nation can rest assured that sunrise industries, green and U.S. energy independent industries will be buried under a pile of coal and crude oil designs.
Cold fusion was shown to have remarkable practical chances more than a decade ago, and I don’t mean the Pons/Flashman phenomenon that gave it all an aura of speciousness. What happened to that for electric power lines in highways applications?
There are even some safer conventional nuclear reactors now that can’t melt down, yet with a federal choice to increasingly indirectly support alternative energy startups the nation could work its way out of the international power drain sometime sooner rather than later.
Without border security the federal government’s work is a farce. Any Al Qa’eda infiltrators with gps routes can bury bio or tech weapons for use anytime, including of course explosives. Later an Al Qa’eda commando can follow gps coordinates to a car and again a map route to select explosives and drive directly to a target…Houston, Dallas, Los Angeles etc. Any prime economic target could be affected. The economic terrorism the administration is accomplishing on poor Americans is itself remarkable.

Broadcast media corruption...
The pervasively corrupting role of the broadcast media and its relation to the state and state authority can be considered from a point of view that would include the analysis of broadcast commercial ‘Christian’ programs and their political affiliation. The bible noted that Satan is a spirit of the air; quite possibly it was a reference apropos for waveform broadcasters and their extreme direct social power to influence public opinion.
Commercial Christian program content of course does vary from sect to sect and location of production. Probably some do have a true faith and retain a desire not simply to talk about tithing or enhance their financial social and political standing, but to convey the word of God as well.
The word of God however is a fairly basic and non-troublesome message to communicate to the masses. If one must venture into the satanic realm of broadcast power in order to increase the range of one’s ego fulfillment simple readings from the gospel can be sufficient for themselves. I believe that many broadcast Christians have been consumed by the worldly rave spirit of evil and may allow it to permeate their messages and corrupt their role as enablers of a true message to be heard.
Are the commercial Christian broadcasters sometimes wolves in sheep’s clothing as the gospel pointed out? Is it possible that sycophantic emulation of popular conservative political spin even to the extent of particularizing attacks against individuals regardless of their Christianity in one instance at least is a prevalent mode of broadcast method?
Such implicit corruption of the Christian message is as a barium test to the targeted souls. That is, they know that the message is wicked and unsound biblical doctrine. Christians do not publicly attack other Christians particularly, nor do they inhibit the writing or financial efforts of individual American citizens. Christians have a certain meekness that is fundamental tolerance of the right of others to go freely about their lives/ Christian broadcasters would seek to disassociate themselves from worldly terrorist practices common in the broadcast media for the last 14 years.
An old soldier once told me ‘don’t try to make anyone else’s life difficult, each has their own battle to fight. Christians too, in the U.S.A., may experience vicissitudes and challenges at variegated and personal rates. It is importunate for political motivated Christian broadcasters to seek to assert a direct political power in the United States through corrupt public influence that would be more appropriate for 16 the century Spain than the United States of America.
The late Senator Moynihan noted that of the nations existing in 1914, only eight has not suffered a violent change of government. Democracies are not common and the broadcast media is not necessarily a beneficial influence on the establishment or perpetuation of a democracy. Individual rights are of paramount importance in a democratic context. Iterations of public abuse or derision with that inestimable power of which every citizen outside of the microphone wielding broadcasters is dumb simple perpetuate gang-banging industry standards of cowardice and evil that is too common now.
The prospects for a democracy in Iraq taking hold are improbable perhaps, yet it’s worth a try for some time. The AP would not seem like a terrorist agency to people beset by people blowing themselves up occasionally. The broadcast media in the U.S.A. has taken a radical lead in shaping the course of real political developments the nation experiences simply by the fact of their pervasive and domineering power. They can outsource the practical political sovereignty of the people sufficient to render the nation a little more suitable for Global Corporate profits. It is, conversely, practical and appropriate for a nation to keep sound borders and for individuals to seek their own financial advantage before those of Global Corporations.
Commercial Christian program content of course does vary from sect to sect and location of production. Probably some do have a true faith and retain a desire not simply to talk about tithing or enhance their financial social and political standing, but to convey the word of God as well.
The word of God however is a fairly basic and non-troublesome message to communicate to the masses. If one must venture into the satanic realm of broadcast power in order to increase the range of one’s ego fulfillment simple readings from the gospel can be sufficient for themselves. I believe that many broadcast Christians have been consumed by the worldly rave spirit of evil and may allow it to permeate their messages and corrupt their role as enablers of a true message to be heard.
Are the commercial Christian broadcasters sometimes wolves in sheep’s clothing as the gospel pointed out? Is it possible that sycophantic emulation of popular conservative political spin even to the extent of particularizing attacks against individuals regardless of their Christianity in one instance at least is a prevalent mode of broadcast method?

About an Internet photo morgue for victim identification
In case no one else has suggested this yet, it would be a good policy in the event of large scale natural disasters or other agents of mass human loss of life to have municipalities photograph the face of every casualty before burial and post it on a central global internet web page to help expedite the identitification of the victims. I know that Polaroid seems to have a brilliant new camera that uploads digital photos via telephone line-so a pc isn’t necessary. It would be a fine thing if someone could provide those cameras in quantity to susceptible locales.
