SecDef Gates Disparages Russia in Cable Leak Espionage

Prime Minister Putin of Russian replied to the disparaging comments made by SecDef Gates about Russia..

http://www.nytimes.com/2010/12/02/world/europe/02putin.html?_r=1&src=mv

Sect. Gates said that democracy has disappeared, and Prime Minister Putin said that Russia may resume building nuclear weapons if the New Start treaty is not signed.

While Russia may be going through a Boris Godonov sorting out era, we have hope that in time all of the people of Russia will experience freedom and liberty better than that in corporatist America today.

Republican Congressional leaders and the Obama Administration should demand the resignation of Sect Gates for making the statements and allowing the leaks through military channels then sign the damn treaty and move on as if they were capable of competence.

The Obama Administration should also put together a crack diplomatic apology team to travel to offended countries with entertainment and gifts for our friends.

The Search for a Planet Larger Than Jupiter Beyond the Oort Cloud

Comet Hartley 2 and a myriad comets observed by telescopes and spacecraft have provided material for construction of a portrait of the Oort Cloud and comets orbiting far from Earh and Pluto around the sun. There may be 400 billion comets a mile or two in size according to..

The number of comets around the sun along with what water is on Earth and and the ice of a few planets is about the entire water supply of the solar system. The behavior of the comets traveling past Earth and around or into the sun provides conjecture on the existence of Sol B- the ghost planet.

Dr, John Murray published an article in the Oct. 11,1999 Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society an article making the conjecture that a large unknown planet could gravitationally influence comets hurling them toward the sun. Dr. Matese of Louisiana State University is also researching the topic and has compiled a body of analysis of the trajectories and incidence of comets passing this way toward the sun in decades past.

It is believed that the cause of so many comets of longer orbital time periods pass this way than might be normal because of the power of a larger gravitational body to capture and deflect comets and even accellerate them toward the gravitational mass of the sun.

The ghost planet (do you believe in ghost planets?) could be over two trillion miles distant. Additional data and the N.A.S.A. W.I.S.E. infrared telescope may be able to answer the question.

Wikileaks Trickles Down State Department Cable

President Obama has strongly denounced the criminals responsible for enabling the theft and publication of classified U.S. Department of State communications. Hopefully he will fire Defense Secretary Gates and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mullins as well and replace them with people that keep lips zipped.

http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2010/11/30/3079962.htm?site=sydney

Secretary of State Clinton said of the theft and release This disclosure is not just an attack on America's foreign policy interests. It is an attack on the international community".

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-11868838

Some of the broadcast media have found the victimizing of the State Department no big thing-as its a rival organazization to the megalomaniacal dream of global corpoarte rule, or at least rule by the broadcast media, popular today.

The U.S. Government is, in effect, the people's corporation in competition with all those others. Victimizing the people's government isn't at all appreciated, for it harms the interests of democracy and rule of law.

Wikileaks and Julian Assange have decided not to release all of the stolen data at once. They have redacted or edited some of the material, inevitably taken things out of context, and also retain the extortion and sabotage resembling option to release future information at will, as they deem it in their interest for whatever reason-perhaps even to sabotage or alter ongoing U.S. and global political missions. The wikipedia rightly should destroy whatever information it yet has, and vow not to withhold information and retain and ability to assault the effectiveness of the U.S. State Department in the future at any time it chooses as opportune.

On Einstein and the Expansion of the Universe

Einstein's field equations for general relativity predict a singularity. He did not believe that a big bang began the Universe though La Maitre told him of the theory derived from Einstein’s equations. Logically in a static Universe gravity should contract everything to one point. Einstein didn't like that idea so he added a small, constant anti-gravity energy to neutralize inward force of the general gravitational field of the Universe and keep it steady.

According to the wikipedia article below, Einstein addition of a cosmological constant was made to counteract the fact that his field equations of general relativity led to a Universe that would eventually contract under the influence of gravity if it were static. Einstein and other scientists believed then that the Universe was static. As recently as the 1960's the steady state theory of Fred Hoyle had believers.

The introduction of a slight cosmological constant force to counter gravity's force to contract the Universe does seems uncharacteristically unscientifically illogical for Einstein. Yet Einstein had such confidence in the accuracy of his theory he could infer the existence of an unknown anti-gravity energy to balance out the mass array of the universe. That took inductive logic from the general theory equations and the manifest Universe about as far as one could go at the time.

The universe since 2000 has been observed to be increasing its rate of expansion apparently-yet there are many theories about that.

The expansion may have started about the year of the Universe 7 billion and is increasing its pace perhaps leading to too fast of expansion and a big rip in a few billion years. Quantum theory predications of a constant are too high of a value, and the observed constant value is hard to explain. Dark energy driving the expansion is inexplicable presently, yet cosmology is in a difficult point of running into unknown and difficult to solve large question presently. Its unfortunate Einstein isn't around to solve them.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmological_constant

Knowledge generally of what’s out there is expanding. Einstein had no idea that the universe is expanding. Quantum theory has far too powerful of a dark energy hypothetically-120 powers of ten greater than what is observed-so it can't be right either. It could be that space or dimensions are expanding instead of energy, or that quantum particles-string-membranes dump their energy in other dimensions etc. It could be numerous things that fine-tune the Universe so it is as it is.

That’s the fascinating part about cosmological theories-there are so many of them.

An Alaskan Spider

November was the wettest month in Anchorage weather records although it didn't amount to much-just 2.87 inches melted down. Still, with a reasonably cool month the weather should have made life difficult for spiders.

I was surprised to find a few spiders near freezing and actually a few degrees below. True, they were just walking about and not at an especially high speed. Daddy long legs spiders-about four of them, made their way to the top of the tent beneath the outer shell as it was the most warm and dry place they could find-and that was at thirty two degrees f. They would occasionally bump into each other sending them scattering in a neo-irate chase-defense-readjustment sojourn all over the tent searching for normalacy and a return to the best breath exhalation collecting spot near a vent.

That quartet of spiders seem to have disappeared in the below freezing weather of late. When the temperature was about 15 degrees I saw a brownish spider perhaps a half inch across walking in slow motion up the inside of the tent along a seam toward the top. Maybe with my being inside the tent it was a little warmer than 15, but not much. Tough spider.

A naked spider in pursuit of the most warm thermal spot at 15 degrees while I was just trying to keep my body temperature above 96 or so. That spider must have been at a body temperature of near the ambient atmospheric temperature. Comparatively a human being would have perished from hypothermia at what-85 or 90 degrees body temperature?

Spiders are of the phylum Athropoda (the same as Alaska King crabs and other crustaceans) and the class Arachnida (that excludes crabs). The Athropoda is the most numerous membership class of life on Earth.

http://www.ucmp.berkeley.edu/arthropoda/arthropoda.html

I have started reading the book 'A World Without Ice', by Henry Pollack Phd, the scientist that shared the Novel Prize with Al Gore. Its not that hard to imagine, even while that two or three gallons of water I exhale each night becomes frost on the inside of the tent. Maybe all that water is the reason why people don't do as well as some spiders in cold weather.

http://www.worldwithoutice.com/

The spider moving in slow motion at 15 degrees above zero could have been a flower spider or an orb weaver. I tend to believe its the latter because of the web one formed in warmer days, although the cold weather spider resembled the flower spider and wasn't spotted on a web.

President Obama Elbowed in Mouth By Hispanic Caucus Player in Basketball Game

Just completing reading 'The Border' by Danelo when the basketball injury report occurred, I thought it somewhat inevitable that the ethnic background of the guy elbowing the Presidential lip would be Hispanic and working for the Hispanic Caucus-those guys are aggressive.

http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/president-obama-injured-basketball-game-12-stitches/story?id=12255387

From my experience, Hispanics can have a 'we are superior to blacks' attitude in the rock, paper, sissors politics of life. With the discovery of another drug import tunnel in San Diego I wondered if some drug king pin had ordered a pay-back on the President, yet they haven't got that much influence I guess.

Brain imaging of people from different cultures show that their brains actually work differently. Because Americans are mostly passive on halting illegal immigration and prefer a long range trial an error capitalist political-economy without any sort of democratic prometian ecological planning conflict and chaos from extrra-terretorial culutral input will increase.

http://www.scientificamerican.com/podcast/episode.cfm?id=brain-imaging-studies-show-differen-10-11-27

http://www.necn.com/11/27/10/Fed-officials-Portland-Oregon-potential-/landing_nation.html?blockID=361600&feedID=4207

In lines in bus stations Hispanics will cut to the front of a line with 30 people and then say 'no comprende' if challenged. They know Americans are more docile in some things-especially at competent border security allowing in tens of thousands each day they choose.

So then the comparison to Teddy Roosevelt occurred to me; Roosevelt went blind in an eye after boxing in the White House with the bare knuckle heavyweight champ-not a good idea, and personally I feel Obama should have been doing some reading and left the playground stuff until after he is out of office after 2012. The people in Washington just aren't as concerned about stopping illegal immigration or creating new jobs for Americans as am I.

Border security in Phoenix is a joke-and the Obama administration sued Arizona to prevent law enforcement people from checking for U.S. citizenship. Hmmm- Presidnet Obama should have been given a present by the pro-illegal alien caucus rather than elbowed by them. At least the guy didn't apologize and sound like a wimp.

There should be hundreds of job openings for painters in South Arizona each winter instead of thousands of illegal aliens standing on streets signaling drivers for work. Corrupt U.S. Congress is the reason why.

Stopping illegal immigration is possible with a comprehensive ecological boundary control zone with ditches, berms and salt water canals to help make fresh water through evaporation and condensation. Mexico will have 45 million people living in their border states within 7 years, crime, corruption and illegal immigration flourishes as Americans are incompetent on economic rectification.

On God and the Universe

Is God Separate from the Universe?' is a word formation made within a subjective linguistic criterion. There are assumptions or presuppositions in the question that are incomplete or undefinable. For instance what is a Universe besides a particular reference phrase derived within the experience of existing?

Separate is another reference term with a given contextual meaning. Do we separate from ourselves, separate from the undefined hypothetical border in time and space, separate or apart from the quark scale size of mass or energy, separate in the past or the future, separate or elsewhere than a given concept reference frame of universing?

Perhaps it is necessary to define what separate or apart from means in the case of the query of God and the Universe? Do we mean separate in the sense that an automobile tire in a tire store is separate from any given car passing on the street in front of the shop? Are the boundaries that define separateness of a universe something that must be recognizable by God and mankind simultaneously? Could the boundaries be rectified, effaced or surpassed and would that comprise a post hoc answer to the question?

We could wonder if God is subjective to any sort of boundary or border that humans might envision as effectively defining beginnings or ends (maybe they are singular) of what could be defined as a universe, the universe, or any given or potential universe?

One may wonder about the relative reference size-scale of the Universe. If it has finite size and is a proverbial drop in the vast infinite non-being of else than is, comparable perhaps to a grain of sand suspended in an ocean the size of the Milky Way Galaxy, must God be pervasively present to the residents living within that grain of sand in order to not be considered to be separate? One might consider the various meanings of separateness such as in an Apartment, a city, a state?

Christians would not regard God as separate in a spiritual sense. Yet the contexts of separateness or complexity, specialization or construction of different existing things requires a phenomenal separateness or contingent being in relation to other being. Light is separate from dark, water in the sea from terra firma.

It is possible to venture into a plethora of ancient and present speculative philosophical and religious ideas about the void, being and nothingness, good and evil and so forth. Zoroastrianism, Buddhism, and even the Bible present an origin of something from nothing. We discover the same concepts in cosmology-phase transitions and inflations, big bangs and collisions, the formations of matter as a surplus over anti-matter, heat separate from cold. There are process philosophies of change along a Taoist watercourse way perhaps trickling waters of life back to a more natural Brahamanist cycle of change and reoccurrence. Kalpas of fifty billion years are plausible yet proximal too within the modern conception of a 13.7 billion year old Universe moving toward a big rip or a catastrophic transition of uncertain destiny. These comparative paradigms of appearance of mass energy and of its change and destiny are intriguing yet not ultimately the central concern for Christians and Jews. It is the transcending relationship to God that occurs in this world through faith, and of a saving grace to a future or atemporal end that is the fundamental human interest reaching beyond the temporal order.

Condi Rice-Helped or Harmed by Wikileaks State Department Cable Release?

Will Ophrah Winfree raise former Secretary of State Condolizza Rice's arm as the champion Presidential contender in 2012? As it is Condolizza Rice's State Department cables that will be leaked to the public from the years 2006 to 2009 may return her to the public spotlight. The affects of that ate difficult to predict.

We do know that she both black, female and smart; those are qualities not found in any other Presidential candidate presently on the radar screen for the 2012 election. Republicans have a sure demographic contestant in Condi Rice-one able to out-think Sarah Palin and with more charisma and experience than Barrack Obama, Mitt Romney or Donald Trump.

Condi Rice has been enjoying the collegiate atmosphere at Stanford besides having a great football team and a lucky quarterback. Rice may be lucky herself, as well as the nation in promoting the lady with the solid I.Q. to the White House for a term. The chess game is not going so well, and the Mexican border control of illegal aliens, drugs and terrorist ingression is a situation of defeat in detail. 8th century Welsh chiefts were brighter at defense lines than today's congresspersons-thats rather amazing. Perhaps the offensive distribution of the State Department cables will kick start the Condi in 2012 campaign.

Isn't Wikileak's State Department Cable Release Plan Like a Hostile Foreign Intelligence Act?

Wikileaks is said to plan to release hundreds of thousands of sensitive U.S. State Department embassy cables this week. In some regards the release of the classified information resembles an act of war against the United States, or minimally a hostile intelligence action destabilizing to international relations.

http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/damage-control-us-state-department-warns-allies-bracing/story?id=12249233

Julian Assange, a founder of Wikileaks previously denied having State Department cables (in July of 2010. In January 2010 a classified cable from the U.S. Embassy at Iceland was published at Wikileaks revealing U.S. policy information about the financial crisis.

http://www.newser.com/story/106129/next-wikileaks-release-state-department-cables.html

http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-501465_162-20011160-501465.html

Law protecting confidential sources should not protect the Internet media categorically, unlike the priestly confessional. The news media has absolutely no inherent rate to endanger state security, nor subvert the proprietary political works of elected government officials and federal agency employees.

Hostile foreign intelligence operations do not become less inimical to the defense of liberty when they publish on the Internet. Media fences of stolen and purloined intellectual capital at Wikileaks or al Qaeda should be prosecuted by the Justice Department, if their plans for capture are not leaked.

Wikileak’s active assault upon U.S. Security through revealing hundreds of thousands of pages of information not available to the public at the Departments of Defense and State may seem to appeal to popular Bush II bashers from the last administration. The information may also attack the security of Hillary Clinton’s State Department and provide enemies of the United States with too much of an insight into U.S. national interests, as well as sew discord between allies.

Globalists may believe the assault on the security of U.S. Government communications by foreign agents will advance their agenda. A rectification of U.S. economics to a low entropy environmental foundation may be the best way to combat hostile foreign intelligence agents and perfidious anti-nationalist politicians as well.

Miller-Murkowski Senate Race (Alaska) Enters Final Stage

Republican Party candidate Joe Miller has entered what may be the end game strategy against incumbent U.S. Senator Lisa Murkowski in filing suit in through out more than 8000 contested write in ballots. Murkowski presently leads by about 10,000 votes. Certification of the election victory for Murkowski is on holding pending adjudication.

It is very difficult to defeat an incumbent federal politician. More than 90% stay in office with the help of money betting on the existing power for pork barrel politics. Alaska lt. Governor Campbell is unhappy with Miller's effort to throw out state election official's right to interpret write-in votes giving an advantage to Murkowski.

The core issue is; should write in votes need to be correctly spelled? In a future election if a Joe Smith were Running against Jane Smythe, should election officials be allowed to interpret the intent of the voter? Another issue is should the state change its rules for interpreting ballots each election to give an advantage to a particular candidate-in this instance Lisa Murkowski?

With more than 180,000 votes cast the election narrows down to just a few thousand. Equal protection of the law may require the letter of the law to be fulfilled in technical issues for justice to prevail.

_________
p.s.- On what interpretation of a vote is.. etc.

These are write in ballots spaces for Murkowski or whomever. Personally I believe that for a vote to count for anything it must count for whatever it was written as.

If a vote is for Listsub Mergekowski than that's who should get the vote (if such a person exists). A theory of names by Russell and Kripke differ of course, yet common sense on political balloting makes the use of 'interpretation' of writing mean something other than what it is implicitly dangerous to honest democratic elections.

Alaska has not certified the election. Instead, the state court system will listen to arguments regarding the subjective interpretation of ballots that Murkowski benefited from. Such subjective interpretation by election officials of voter intent is certainly a means to admit corrupt into future elections.

Can election rules be changed every election to benefit incumbents? If Jane Smit runs against Jan Smith is it the right of an election official to determine voter intent in miss spelling a name? File clerks might affirm that a zillion odd names exist, that voters might want to actually vote for some one with a similar name yet not well known, and that misfilings of votes and names are possible.

Palin did not split the Alaska vote-she split the Democratic vote. It was Democratic women voters defecting from their party to vote for gender that re-elected Lisa Murkowski. The Democrat guy only got 22% of the vote-about the number of male Democrats in Alaska I think.
