At the Boundary of Certainty (poem)

Before one p.m.
gathered in quantum levels
fit together like puzzly pieces in standard sizes
wave particle travellers in permissible sets
elements aggregated within universal nets
statistical lattice works of mass space
dimensions timing
attracted and repulsed
structures with dynamic tensions rhyming

In the midst of immeasurable nothingness
ice was to form on the surface of the deep
nothing overhead; an expanse forever sweet

In spatial momenta of silent darkness
zero-point voids
counting questions of monastic tarp
quarkstrings rezound
zen like questions of being and uncertainty
waves of appearances downloading from eternity

Profound-The One knows why all answers change questions
meanings too
why roads to the edge of everywhere stop
short of time
with incompleteness new

Spatial structures built with zero G
within an Escherian domain
Lambdas for increasing reason
converting purpose the energetic season free to boundaries of certainty named
expanding dimensions upon more stark plains
dimensional membranes wherever refrain
paintings of thanks for the Lord's infinities
and locally actualized limits
placed like containment vessels-
scales that fallaway when ripe.

Karmodo Dragons of Carmageddon (poem)

Warm occluded fronts seem like a paradox
high pressure arctic cold moves to low pressure systems
where the water molecules have room to move

I don't know
warm moves toward the cold
as if explanatory causality was reversed from low to high

high pressure cold and high pressure hot

low pressure wet and snow winds rent

in the south
warm fronts stimulating lizards, komodo dragons and wind moving like carmageddon
a century from Santa Barbara
emitting worse now than then
until the exhaust afterburner converts mechanical energy and carbon
without much ado to clean air products
cool, without heat
a world without much of an atmosphere
like that
when the bridge falls.

Natural Resource Use/Free Enterprise Primer

The government may sell natural resources even if the private sector has resources of the same kind. Gold from Ft. Knox sold after a federal budget default may deflate gold prices privately held. Oil from the strategic oil reserve was sold intentionally to drive down fuel price by increasing supply-I was against that incidentally.

I am writing about natural gas-not oil. There is a huge difference.

Making petroleum from oil involves quite a lot more processing than natural gas that burns right from the tap. The cost of building a bullet pipeline from the North Slope to Anchorage would be seven billion dollars, and half of the gas would be sold offshore perhaps and it might be necessary to build a new LNG plant and deepwater supertanker loaf facility, yet the people could buy cheaper natural gas with intellligent planning for a century. The state can sell its resource directly to the people and on the spot market to shippers.

Alaska has already had a 35 year relationship get a royalty from oil from the slope they let private corporations extract and ship out of state. Alaska has very high gasoline prices and is running out of oil supply-this is all very bad resource management policy including new offshore oil drilling and the potential for environmentally devastating oil spills in the future.

I will write here on the basic free enterprise/citizen relationship to natural resources in the public sector...

About Natural Resources And Free Enterprise

It might be useful to revisit a few of the basic practical concepts of free enterprise in this era where some Americans it means to get a paycheck from Wal-Mart or Exxon-Mobil. Adam Smith had practical ideas that resources and liberty are best used by everyone if kept free from big business bullies in corporations, gangs or government.

Individuals need private, personal resources to make their experience of life comfortable and or meaningful. Individuals require a healthy ecosphere and laws that keep gangs, collectives, governments and corporations from owning everything and making slaves of everyone. The public on an equal basis should have first free enterprise use of natural resources without being jacked by a technical, legalistic way to dump all the natural resource goods to a few.

Natural resources of a democratic society originally belong to the people (though some might say that the people belong to the resources). Air, land, water, and natural gas in abundance on public lands fall under the jurisdiction of public governance.

Unfenced frontiers given to settlers for work and making corner markers without onerous auctions that just the rich would win, rivers free flowing for all boaters and to fill urban water taps because the resource was not sold to Global Water Corporation Unlimited-this conservation of public natural resources requires environmental security defense and resource management to assure that the citizens might have the best opportunity for the use of the resource to freely construct their own valued prizes of leisure, of business travel, of energy etc. without permission from or payment to the Imperial Corporate Power organization.

It would be wrong and a betrayal of public trust for a government to auction off those resources en mass to the highest bidder in effect giving all of the chips at a discounted value to the rich.

Natural wilderness resources of the Americas as they remain will best be conserved. If natural resources are used egalitarian access to provide equal opportunity for citizen free enterprise is of higher social value than allowing an exclusive, global corporate ownership through idiot auction to the rich.

If the resource is non-renewable such as natural gas in Alaska then the state should provide access to the resource on public demand that will reinforce to the most egalitarian citizen resource access.

Free enterprise of a thousand souls generally creates the better odds for creative invention than when a thousand souls work for one rich dude. Allowing natural resources to be controlled by extreme limited access private interests endangers the political liberty of the many.

Free enterprise is a simple affair. One simply improves one's life with available resources. The more resources available to the public the more opportunities a soul has to get heat in winter, grow food in summer, have water to drink and so forth. it is important that public resources be protected and defended from destructive large scale exploitation to keep the resource fund alive.

Free enterprise does not require sale of merchandise. Sale of assets is a secondary activity from the store of personal property one has built up-usually the goods are exchanged for something one wants and does not have or a cash proxy.

The advantage of free trade is best found in an environment of abundant natural resources in which an individual may best find useful articles and materials to manufacture articles that would meet needs not answered by unmanufactured articles.

When cultures lose sight of common sense foundations for free trade and mistake purely abstract trading circumstances and practices that gain advantage for individuals positioned to exploit corporations to lever social and physical environments the free enterprise interests of the many and well being of democracy is reduced.

Parallel Lines In Budget Talks Never Meet Unless They Move Closer

Euclid's fifth postulate that parallel lines never meet was taken as the guiding principle in forming the federal budget. It was determined that experiments could be made to confirm this economic fact keeping Democrats and Republicans from agreeing to raise taxes on the rich and cut spending simultaneously on things the rich get out of government's revolving doors.

History informs us that Al Michelson seeking free education in science at the Naval Academy hung out on the White House porch waiting for President U.S. Grant to return from walking his dog to ask for an appointment to the academy. Grant affirmed the wish and sent the young scientific genius off to Annapolis where he could began his career leading him to develop speed of light measurements useful for Albert Einstein later in formulating the special theory of relativity.

Michelson did not need to make use of Fitzgerald-Lorentz contraction of mass theory that explains the contraction of mass in an accelerated state to build debt management models for the U.S. Government on how to balance a budget.

Eleven dimensional tranches (payment priority levels) for debt repayment-an Enron sort of federal budget management process on steroids was not the way things were done in the early part of the 20th century. Can infinite lines or quantities be accelerated? Can the national debt or ecospheric health be reduced by accelerating change? Derivatives formulations of inventive genius in accelerated deficits to balance federal budget field theories would not get Nobel prizes for decades.

Lucy Dominguez Von Ricardo was motivated to replace the world's system of longitude lines with parallel circles maintaining spacing as latitude line do, without convergence at either planetary pole. She required financial support for the noble project, hence the Von Ricardo plan's conception...

With a finite number of credit cards she experimented in Michigan Malls on her Iron Law of Tax Cuts theory that increasing credit debt and tax cuts would pay off public and private debt locally and finance the Von Ricardo longitude plan with profit outsourcing purchases and financial products to strangers abroad. She proved the formula and made credible experimental predictions of its outcome; that space-time (down the road right from Chicago) would warp debt around the sun bringing parallel lines together on its far side when the Mayan Calendar ended in 2012- unless non-converging circles acted as temporary counter-warps.

Parallel lines as super-size spaghetti even if extended to infinity in one or both directions lengthwise-will never meet unless the distance between them is reduced to zero like spaghetti in a package before one takes it out to prove Euclid's 5th postulate.

It was discovered that infinite strings of spaghetti placed parallel in absolute space look like they are parallel only if viewed on a cookie sheet or comparable surface of infinite 2 dimensional size. In three dimensional space the viewer can see parallel lines move together and then draw apart if circling around the parallel spaghetti strings in three dimensions in the space shuttle Atlantis. Thus a number of possible, apparent solutions to the approaching federal debt default crisis August 2nd may appear to work until viewed with sobriety August 3rd.

A compromise solution to Euclid's 5th postulate overcoming obstacles to bringing parallel lines and budget negotiations together without using non-Euclidian geometry was accomplished with a magnificent speech by right honorable Senator Zbighoop Breezpluto comparing the national debt to the historial day the Roman army was captured, released and made to walk in shame back to Rome by another Italian tribe (Rome eventually recovered though). The idea was that the debt is an immanent danger and better economic management is required.

Future of the World 44% Off

Dystopian and utopian scenarios are useful tools for science fiction writers; they apply for the real world too though.

A case in point is the present August 2nd Federal Budget Default branch-will it crash or won't it? The predictions for a crash are dire economically speaking, yet that is another branch. All I can repeat here is that a true default is anticipated to reduce revenue by 44% in a worst case. Alternately that is a best case scenario for the rich able to surf through the wave of crisis and able to make a profit on it beside.

And it seems that armadillos are leprosy transmitters. That harmless pre-historic American marsupial can make you one of the unemployed, or if not that it can raise your medical costs.

So can HIV. Failing to provide HIV prevention pills tested in Africa to American homos and imported drug addicts that cost a quarter per day lets the disease increase. Scientific American reports that more 45,000 new cases of AIDs occurred in the U.S.A. in 2009. I hate to think of the cost of treatment for those individuals infected over a lifetime.

The cost of keeping a prisoner is jail for a year is about $35,000 a year in the U.S.A. I believe that some AIDs drugs cost two or three thousand a month. In other words keeping people with AIDs alive may cost about as much as keeping prisoners in jail. If one has an unlimited budget and desire to pay for increased insurance cost and medicare taxes it might be reasonable to not spend anything on AIDs prevention, otherwise its better to spend the quarter to reduce the chances of getting HIV 73% in the American south were over half of the new HIV/AIDs case occur.

New York, California, Texas, Florida are infectious hot spots that should invest in AIDs prophylaxis through the use of the preventer pill as well as rubberized member coatings.

Sure we know that moral breakdown is also a cause of HIV, low tax rates on the rich and the federal debt. Curing moral failings is improbable without faith in God. Too many musicians have invested in breaking down social morality with bad lyrics. All that can really be done would be to have instrumental only radio stations provide just music and no brainwash to the masses.

The future with budget failures and concentrated wealth may evntually return society to a condition of chaos and drastcly reduced population globally though designer virus or some other high tech dissent to an oppressive and totalized new world order. At least that is the probable way a world government and a world with declining natural resources will be subject to political change.

I have thought of writing a science fiction story on that theme, yet in a way covered that in 'Cross Purposes' already-a little. I prefer utopian scenarios and extra-galactic travel now to on-planet political doom and ecospheric destruction...the U.S. Congress though is a perenial Hatfields-McCoy sort of bi-partisan feud with dummies on either side sufficient to stay bogged down in the sand traps of D.C. (the most dense AIDs population concentration in the U.S.A. too reportedly and explaining why the government now and probably the military in the future will be looking for federal homocouple health benefits).

Aristotle and Theological Controversy Over Nothingness

I hadn't any idea before reading J.D. Barrow's 'The Book of Nothing' of the historically volatile issues surrounding the controversial question of could a vacuum exist or not-who would have thought?

Evidently the question of the existence or non-existence of a vacuum-of real empty space such as today one might regard the mass of the Universe to exist in, has drawn along not only scientific opinions to opposing sides but theological sides as well.

Aristotle seems to have believed that empty space could not really exist and locate such as might beyond the Universe surrounding it in a meta-universal cosmic void. Fair enough. Theologians over time were silly enough to be drawn into the issue believing that nothing could not exist because it might imply some sort of inability of God to control something (or nothing). That is, nothing could not really exist as that would mean that there was some part of the creation called nothingness beyond the power of God. Theologians believed that nothing is not beyond the power of God (or maybe that describes atheists today better), or rephrased, that everything including nothing is within the power of God. Barrow points out that word games and poems also evolved around the theories of nothing.

It is the scientific dialectic involving research into vacuums and barometric pressure that stimulated science and philosophical speculation too. Torricelli, Pascal and Descartes were at time advocates of different paradigms, yet material researches led to inferences about the nature of the environment for themselves with a decrease in theological conformity in an Aristotelian paradigm.

Does a true vacuum exist with nothing in it? Perhaps not in this Universe with its emergence of virtual particles, passage of neutrinos and a pervasive gravity field.

Perhaps the apparent vacuum in 3 dimensions of space is suffused with six extra, smaller dimensions and a field of quantum energy as strings or brane fields. Goodness, the appearance of a vacuum may again be a four dimensional interpretation in human cognitive context of the Universe's distribution of power.

Without air mice and men perish in a vacuum. Without caloric action mass dies down toward the absolute zero direction eventually. Maybe the low state of comparative pressure and absence of mass comparatively provides a pragmatic rather than a philosophical vacuum yet those are the sorts of things one needs for practical knowledge of the 'weather' conditions of the Universe.

A James Webb space telescope may provide more answers to questions about the deep structure of the Universe so we don't need to rely on just scientific sectarianism as a kind of post-Aristotelian scientology for making intuitive judgments about the 'weather' within and without the Universe.

Today, with political progress in Washington D.C., if one feels strongly pro or con on theological or scientological opinions of the void, space-time unification, or empty space one may freely march to support or protest nothing or something about nothing without fear of political or economic reprisal-especially if unemployed. For now, nothing is safe for moral conservatives. The radical chic has moved on to other areas such as biology, atheism, abortion, homosexuality and concentrating wealth as its extremist global agenda.

Actualizations of The One (poem)

When time is an echo of mountain ranges
covered in snows of barometric shadows
silences await each step
receiving with nothingness memory of being

The budget balancing time's tide
flowing through the bay
distant hope on the horizon
beingness to unknown worlds
turning away from metric tensors of temporality

The seven letters of witness to The Messiah
with the other fragments filling baskets
being and nothingness, fishermen of rainfall
semblences seeming to catch portraits of experience
viewed from within and without

When everything and nothing rushes ahead
all at once waves gather in the currents offshore
ripples of matter infused with space
sending apart ideas forever to new time
flowing to the borders of boundaries
superimposed over infinite geometric values
casting topologies of infinite forms through tomorrow
a way someplace with the point of existence
actualized in action of The One.

Gary Will's 'What Paul Meant'

This book will not inform you that the Mayan word for 'day' was 'kin' or explain Hubble's Law, what it will do is bring the reader to a vista of a worldview occluded for many today, and of a man who met the resurrected Christ -a view across the greatly interesting expanse of the life of the Apostle of Jesus Christ. This perspective is one we may lack even with decades of reading the New Testament casually, and even with faith.

Gary Wills published this book in 2006. Paul's confirmed letters-seven of the thirteen in the New Testament, were sent to the ekklesia (churches) within 20 years of the crucifixion of The Lord Jesus Christ. They are the first published works of the New Testament preceding even the books of the gospel by decades. Gary Will's book illuminates ideas about the circumstances in which the letters were written, and necessarily of the life of Paul. That is an excellent investment of time and thought for the faithful and even for those cultured despisers of belief.

If the New Testament was written by men, and if the books are what remain of fragments of more works, of historical captures of the oral history nature of the culture, Biblical scholarship investigating the order, manner and composition of that writing-not simply considerations and comparisons of books selected for inclusion in the new Testament and those left out, we may find the knowledge increases our faith in the grace of God allowing mortal man to experience some of the light of the revelation of God as Jesus Christ-the Messiah and convey it to future generations through the experience and writing of mortal man.

Paul encountered Jesus Christ personally-perhaps several times, in his resurrected, glorified body. His own descriptions differ from those recorded in the Book of the Acts. The Book of Acts was written perhaps quite a bit after Paul's letters and may be a historical capture of knowledge of events 'as told by' for posterity.

This book of discovery of 'What Paul Meant' brings the reader to experience the live context of what Paul meant in writing letters to several groups of believers that met in home churches as equals without rank more or less as part of working life mission as an Apostle of Jesus Christ.

Waveform Politics; Newscorp's Troubles

Rupert Murdoch's vast center-right wing media organization is one of a few that dominate the U.S. broadcast media wavelengths. Of course they are not limited to broadcast media but own cable and print outlets as well. Newcorp personnel in Britain caught with their fingers in cell phone data mining cookie jars scotched Newscorps takeover of B Sky B.

Fox televion and radio news is quite influential in contemporary U.S politics. Newscorp and the Tea Party may be losers in the approaching Federal budget default crisis receiving a significant portion of the blame.

Nationalism is frowned upon in national economics by globally owned media. Since U.S. media became owned by global corporations such as Disney and Newscorp the Congress and FCC quit upgrading the broadcast frequencies for the use of citizen journalists via Internet podcast rebroadcasts as technology would allow. Instead the wavelengths are dominated by global concentrations of wealth propagandizing Americans to give up their independence.

Levi Aron & The Bloody Crime in N.Y.'s Jewish Community

One would not want to think that the average New Yorker has such a social conditioning toward homicide that someone asking for directions at random might become a victim of a killer. That is one of the reasons why this very unusual (I hope) crime by Levi Aron-a Jew with an obviously symbolicly important name requires some thought.

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/07/13/levi-aron-arrested-lieby-kletzky_n_897184.html

Of course the persecution of European Jews by government authorities rumor mongering sensational and untrue stories about Jewish practices including sacrifice of European children that were goyim (gentiles) was a recurrent feature from imperial Russia to Germany. That a 35 year old New Yorker might have sacrificed a kid as a spur of the moment thing-or perhaps the lost kid asking for directions was a fullfillment of a repressed desire of killer to sacrifice a victim in some way to recognize N.Y.'s new homosexual marriage law?, is a sign of the times perhaps. It is possible to imagine such crimes in humanities past though, as a darker trait.

New York City as a kind of epiphenomenal accretion of human civilization-over populated, dense urbanization, unsustainable food production or energy basis, is a kind of prediction of the future of the human race if they do not develop a steady state economy with full employment and a healthy biosphere. Religious freedom is a fundamental right and so too is the right of life. Often when human society becomes out of balance it has wars to change the situation without micro-reasoning subtlety. Then all of society become murders with approriate honors and sanctification for those that perish and those that work it with most valour.

Maybe Mr. Aron was just socially obsessve though-he does had that Loughner sort of look to him.
