Occassionally I post reminders of interesting space events for myself. This is one such post.
The Fermi gamma ray space telescope was launched in 2008.

Congress Seeks Ways to Trim the Nation's Poor/Profit from Investing Overseas
When an article in Time reported that 25% of M.I.T. graduates are moving to work in Wall Street's financial sector-that is, the best and brightest including those from Harvard are moving toward the gaming and scamming portion of the U.S. economy instead of building new businesses, it wasn't too surprising, corporatism and globalism have taken over the U.S. economy and outsourced it leadership to that of globalists.
So the other salient fact mentioned, that the five developing economies of India, China, Russia and Brazil will pass the gross national product of the G7 countries within seven years should help to understand why the Wall Street corporate and government leadership have treated U.S. national interests as secondary, or something of a slum in the general scheme of things; the nation can supply military forces to war for foreign resource extraction business interests of more concern to global corporations than American, and consider how to cut programs for the nation's poor while adding debt to the taxpayer future.
President Obama seemed rather spineless in his cheering for extended corporate tax cuts last December; the national budget could have been balanced in two years if he had let them expired-and he absolutely had that power. Now the congress is haggling about cutting medical programs for the poor, and of course Congress lacked the integrity to just create a free medical service for the poor and veterans combining and improving services.
The U.S. military soaks up 3/4 of a billion annually, and the interest on the national debt another 3/4 trillion dollars. Military personnel are paid at very high levels for public servants-too high, and the military retirement system ought to be eliminated and military retirees merged into the civilian social security system at the same rates in order that they too have something to defend and care about being funded.
A military that engages in protracted low-intensity conflict supporting a plethora of corporate military suppliers creates a need to continue expanding wars in order that the Defense Department funding may not be cut. Convenient foreign mullahs protesting U.S. burning of Korans a year later create demands for Congress to submit to the Moslem demands and condemn free expression in the U.S.A. Globalism pressures the U.S.A. increasingly to conform to its will. Some might feel like napalming such demands, and then conform to simple defense of individual liberty even in a market era of pervasive social corruption of national political rights.
One wonders if the Department of Defense has any ability to restrain its deployment whenever corporate and flag officers decide it tempting to start a new conflict such as in Libya instead of finding a way to remove failed rebel protestors peacefully. Could it be possible to reduce Defense spending by half within a year or two through conventional weapons and force reductions with most of the world major powers and soon to be major powers?
The Republican-Tea Party attack on health services to the poor is typical of a corrupt, declining power outsourcing its liberty. The poor should be the last undermine, yet it requires moral leadership to be aware of that fact. Everyone knows that if a Senator or Congressman seeking to undermine Medicaid and Medicare had no medical services him or herself he or she would happily take whatever free medical services are available should they have cancer or a compound fracture on a city street. Realism is not a concern of the federal supply side class of politicians transitioning financial bunk into a faith based distraction from religious integrity as well as financial common sense.
The United States requires a reinforcement of its traditional values of strong national defense, border security and liberation of Mexico from reliance on remittances and drug sales to the U.S.A. that inevitably corrupt the economic pragmatism of each nation. Creating a zero flow of illegal aliens into the United States is requisite for a balanced federal budget and the practical conservation of reasoned financial planning.
It is true that during the middle ages of world history religion was corrupted too far by takeover from simultaneous worldly-political actors driving it to support their own goals. That evolution was a natural consequence of the missiological need to convert a pagan nation's leadership first. The new convert king or queen would then place themselves at the head of the church and find any sort of dissent to be politically threatening. That situation did not work itself out until after the reformation and the 30 years religious wars.
In the U.S.A. the church has failed to transition into being a priesthood of believers and thus often follows the hierarchical, corporate-military industrial complex trail of economic evolution through its permutations at home and abroad. Plainly a priesthood of believers ecclesiastical structure regarding all church members as necessary peers would better draw economic attention to the United States and citizenship instead of corporate, global policy. With the hegemony of the corporate owned broadcast media the upgrading of the United States to a correct contemporary Christian church expression is challenging.
The United States could readily solve its economic difficulties, yet the national leadership is more concerned about abstract global skimming than making the nation the best it can be. There isn't much cause for optimism in the future with the way things are, and federal debt is increasing while the foundation of low-entropy economics hasn't much hope of getting started.

The Tight-Fisted Grip-o-Gravity ©2011Gary Clifford Gibson (poem)
If black holes compress mass infinitely
why aren’t they all the same size
with all mass within crunched to the same infinitely reduced area?
The event horizon; the cover
varies in size in relation to the mass within
the mass continuing to release a gravitational field of proportion
upon space beyond the cover
gravitons escape the gravitational field easily tugging space-time into a curve approaching infinity beyond the cover at the singularity
artful draft dodgers of their own consequence
retired soldiers forever pulling tax dollars into a separate public retirement system
travelling at the speed of light gravitons escape infinite space curvature though not time
Or, alternatively, the cover and its shaped space-time curve is a residual, an artifact of the mass that has infinitely shrunk unto oblivion
a spatial size that reduces mass to non being
Though we think kindly of mass-energy reduced to lowest possible size-such that it has no area at all
it is difficult to forget that even gravity is a kind of energy pulling mass toward its own ends
the end state of mass energy-an illogical choice, for gravity must too be a form of mass-energy convertible a little bit itself into something better
Something a little more noble
something that would let mass and energy drift about space-time in accord with their own will to exist
to form planets and galaxies without gravitational help
to shine brightly where no star has shined before
Mass energy in a black hole with its cover pulled tightly about it
a singularity at the center like a pearl in an oyster of immense power
might have crunched mass and energy to a lowest state of being
something unknown in the present quantum field theory
a quanta stringy or one-dimensional
a monad of metronomic meter
standard versification within a universe
lines of harmonic monads wrapped about the end point of time in a spatial ribbon looping lines into circles on one-time
Gravity that compacts mass to most infinitely reduced size
has something unnegotiable about it
it has its own way nearly infinitely smaller and tighter
to what counterintuitive end?
a one-way city street narrowing to pencil thin
never releasing its grip on time or matter
One day discoverers of scientific puzzles may find
the way to release the entrapped mass-energy of time
time that is halted in its own wrapped space
time that has stopped reducing space to one place
that most steep slope converting mass to just one’s
the unapproachable gravitational field where motion and pressure have just begun
direct lines to the concentrate smallest state of matter
may be unraveled and sent to the black hole centrals
releasing mass through the gravitational-space-time wrapped field
as a new form of energy to power SUV wheels.

A Good Statesman Could Reduce World Military Expenditures
The United States now spends more than 3/4s of a trillion dollars on military activities annually-without even factoring in the cost of retirement or VA medical treatment. President Dwight Eisenhower worked on his military-industrial complex speech more than 18 months before giving it in his farewell adress to the nation a few days before leaving office. President Kennedy should have heeded that message before visiting Dallas.
A good statesman could reduce U.S. military expenses by at least 50% simultaneously with other nations of the world. Global security could be enhanced by securing borders of all nations against illegal human traffic including illegal aliens, arms smugglers, terrorists, slavers, pimps and so forth. International and national security should coincide in reducing conventional military procedures toward concentrating on border security for all nations instead of conventional wars of invasive or civil natures.

Use Military to Soak Up Excess Vacant Homes in U.S.A./Field Grade Officer Retirement Bonus Instead of Payments
High tech igloo shaped homes that produce most of their own energy requirements might be the way to go. Homes with low maintenance costs-one time roofing and exterior coating, survivable in tornados and hurricanes, coated with solar photon collecting materials could reduce the waste of materials, electrical production at a distance and human labor.
Present homes with debt problems and uncertain corporate ownership might perhaps be presented to U.S. soldiers as prizes of federal incompetent economic management. Soldiers could receive special discounted loans on vacant homes at 50% of their prior market value, and the government would guarantee the loans.
The military could also save federal dollars if officers of field grade were given a severance bonus of cash and a free home with no ongoing retirement payments. If they want federal money for life, they could apply for social security if they financially qualify. It seems unreasonable that federal military officers that enlisted at age 18 should be on the federal payroll for 50 years or more in the modern era of low numbers of field grade officer deaths on the battlefield or in sea combat.

ESA Planck Mission's Early Findings
The European Space Agency's Plank mission to map the cosmic microwave background radiation follows up on the NASA WMAP mission of yore. Early returns of data analysis were presented in January 2011, and the web site has some video, photographs and other data.
More detailed mapping of the earliest imagery presently available of the physical state of affairs of the Universe in its first 350,000 years of existence is helpful for the formation of cosmological theories of how it all works (the Universe or Metaverse), where it was and where its going to.
Actually, present cosmological theories have tended to grow with the observational data at large and small scale, and sometimes in comparison to the inspired word of God (the Bible). Cosmological theories may always change with the expanding infinite horizons of logic, knowledge, time and space.

About the Earth's Geoid
Scientific American posted an article on the shape of the Earth determined by a satellite regarding it from a particular way the last two years.
http://www.scientificamerican.com/blog/post.cfm?id=the-geoid-why-a-map-of-earths-gravi-2011-04-01
The European Space Agency put up the GOEC satellite and it can observe the geoid. The scientific American article referenced above explains what the geoid criterion is-I won't try that myself.
The video S.A. posted is found on youtube. So are many other videos loosely derived from the geoid. Many of the videos are Quranicly inspired. The shape of the world without the oceans probably is a little irregularly, and with the oceans it's gravitational field might be somewhat different too. I have no idea if the Quran predicted the potatoe-shape qualities of the Earth, yet if it has thats a really amazing find, I guess. There are lots of videos proclaiming the truth about the essential spud.

Nuclear Power Plants Should Have a Fail-Safe Design
Nuclear power plants minus operators because of some future biological war accident could send plumes of radiation around the global like a few thousand Chernobyls blooming. If the deadly electrical power through atomic fission plant construction continues they should at least be designed with a fail safe capability such that after a certain time a mountain of dirt would slide down and bury a malfunctioning power plant.
Nuclear power plants should not be constructed any more near waterways leading to the ocean where they can infuse radioactive materials into the world’s waterways for centuries potentially, after the unforeseeable world demographic disaster.

Why the Market Doesn’t Generate Rational Ecospheric Political Governing
It is challenging in the post cold-war political economy to write critically and objectively about the pitfalls of capitalism without being immediately suspected of holding the opposite view, possibly the only alternative political opinion, of socialism or communism. Well, I am not writing in advocacy of either of those quasi-authoritarian political philosophies here. Instead I am writing a few comments in support of an updated free enterprise and democratic nationalism within a low entropy, high quality economic future.
It is also challenging to write for secure borders with no or very low legal or illegal immigration without being suspected of racism or elitism. Yet without stable population and citizenship the average citizen of any nation has few real economic or political opportunities to constructively interact to improve his or her political standing. Market force philosophies today denigrate class political interests while simultaneously exploiting class analysis for marketing product most efficiently. Individuals are reinforced in disregarding political interests in preference for pure market business as politics for-itself. Individual affects on finite natural resources do have consequences of concatenation. Each individual pursuing the satisfaction of their own interest may want a non-renewable resource product, and that product utility concatenated may eliminate the product even if its price increases to discourage its purchase. Ignoring the reduction in quality of the environment or the decrease of wilderness land will not stop the trends; they go on as long as over-reliance on an anthropomorphic faith in free market natural selection diminishes intellectual competence in national politics.
The free market criterion of Adam Smith was a pre-ecospheric economic structure. Adam Smith’ 1776 book ‘The Wealth of Nations’ for economic theory might be an equivalent of Newton’s theory of gravity. Newton’s theory, brilliant as it was, had to be replaced by Einstein’s General theory of relativity to explain larger spaces and time. Even G.P.S. satellites need to take into account the effects of time dilation. The fundamental ecospheric parameters of Smith’s concept of capital in relation to the world ecosphere are far more obsolete in comparison.
World ecological health was not a concern of the English of 1776, and free market pursuit occurred as a dialectical opposite to constriction of imperial governance and its central planning. The pursuit of individual self-interest in economics is not a formula for governance of the whole society.
Smith’s capital prescription is a formula for the acquisition of economic power through production and sale of goods and services that satisfy economic demands. Historically capitalism tends toward monopoly and remedies to monopoly have been written into law.
As capitalism becomes very large and socially networked, as capitalism becomes institutionalized and usurps social organization, morality and government, it also becomes increasingly irrational about the state of the world ecosphere. Without a rectification of capitalism to modern circumstance, nationalism, civil rights, individual free enterprise, inventiveness and the health of the ecosphere will be increasingly under assault.
Global corporate markets in pursuit of capital gains willingly increase scarcity in order to increase the value of commodities. In the United States market oriented urban planners permit development sprawl to bury farmland helping to drive up food prices. Global corporations buy up vast tracts of rural farmland also decreasing food quality simultaneously with increasing costs and profit. The logic of markets that become networked and corporate dominated is to increasingly drive up consumer costs while decreasing consumer capital. Government debt is another way to enslave the U.S. public and increase the concentration of wealth.
A modern economy may be evaluated through its energy base. Quantity, quality, type, use, safety, renewability, cost; energy facts are what determine the state of an economy in large part. The United States has a radically inefficient use of energy today, while simultaneously allowing its nation to be flooded with illegal aliens taking jobs and making finite economic and energy control impossible.
Irrational market ideas are often used to justify racism as an excuse for allowing illegal immigration; that is, because most prior immigration to America before 1930 was white or black (involuntary in the latter case), allowing non-white immigration beyond rational population limits is justified because the immigrants are brown. A further irrational market concept is that the immigrants are good workers (better than Americans) and provide cheap labor of advantage to those willing to pay less for workers.
With a zero population growth rate amongst white Americans, and with white Americans still a majority, it makes little social or economic reason to allow illegal aliens from Mexico with a high birth rate to thwart ecological conservation efforts, efforts to modernize the economy, efforts to transition to a new energy and transport foundation and keep the U.S. stable at its present population level.
A fair economic policy today manages human resources not on a racial basis, but on an abstract foundation of human equality. An empirically irrational market political operating system denies citizens the basic rights of self-determination in a stable and secure political and geographical environment. Citizens have rights in their own nation greater than non-citizens. Annual earning opportunities and income for individual citizens is a fundamental test of social equality in a market economy. The poor are discriminated against-not races, gender or perverted sexual behavior. Corrections to individual poverty in relation to average social earnings requisite for a just government with realistic democracy. The distance in wealth between the most rich and the most poor cannot be light years, or billions of dollars within any one nation, if freedom is to exist for all. It is not necessary to have compulsory equal economic compensation for all citizens, yet the range between the richest and poor must be reduced to necessary social limits.
Irrational immigration policy in pursuit of an irrational market based economy without correction seeking growth in consumption, depletion of natural resources and real geophysical liberty should generate increasing waves of economic disruption I production as well as political conflicts.
Market forces based upon scarcity, banking the opposite, control of markets through monopoly (an implicitly anti-free market factor) will work toward the elimination of natural resource availability and supply, the commoditization and intentional supply reduction of ecospheric health simple in pursuit of short term profits and transition of capital gains into political power of monopoly. The logic of market forces applied to the finite ecospheric area of the Earth is irrational. The anthropomorphization of Adam Smith’s invisible hand of market forces into a benevolent ecospheric wizard of Wall Street was an abandonment of reasoned political philosophy taken on in the finite ascent of market production and optimism drawn from the frontier properties of America. A healthy economy requires good governance responsive to the needs for conservation of the ecosphere, the liberty of the people, and the desire for independence from poverty, class oppression and the tyranny of organizations of any kind; private or public. The U.S. government is failing miserably at leading the nation into a sustainable society based on national self-reliance with liberty and justice for all Americans. It has allowed the delusions of a benevolent, anthropomorphic free market ideology to promote global corporate takeover of the national economy, reduction of the ecosphere nationally, failure to create a new, highly efficient energy use infrastructure, corrupted its farmlands, used food crops for making gasohol for fossil fuel powered vehicles, permitted a porous Mexican border and promiscuous immigration policies to continue over-production of cheap labor supply, failed to be a good economic role model for the developing world and endangered the nation with trillions and trillions of dollars of public debt.

It has allowed the delusions of a benevolent, anthropomorphic free market ideology to promote global corporate takeover of the national economy, reduction of the ecosphere nationally, failure to create a new, highly efficient energy use infrastructure, corrupted its farmlands, used food crops for making gasohol for fossil fuel powered vehicles, permitted a porous Mexican border and promiscuous immigration policies to continue over-production of cheap labor supply, failed to be a good economic role model for the developing world and endangered the nation with trillions and trillions of dollars of public debt.
Send NPR Funding to Budget Elimination File
NPR’s half billion dollars should be cut from the Federal budget. In the post cold war world it is an anachronistic globalist agitator subverting American enterprise and independence.
Today there was an interview from Libya with a ‘PhD candidate in communications’ training in plastic explosives, rockets, mortars and sundry materials useful for war and terrorism. If he can overthrow Khadafy and return to Washington State University to complete his program he may be able to be some sort of official in the new regime or perhaps remain in Washington as a Moslem community organizer helping get mosque construction under way on the Palouse.
NPR may have organizational functions for the export and import of odd political forces harmful to the conservation of U.S. national security and ecological economic progress, and it may be a tool of the Chinese policy to ‘defeat the United States with low technology’ mentioned by the insightful Red Army General of China a while ago. America in the era of NPR has promoted illegal alien hegemony in the U.S.A. through its concept of ‘fair and balanced’ reporting, it is an agency of socialization for anything un-American (it had a Swedish author on today as well—what’s wrong with Alaskan authors), the nation has built of vast public debt, the military has transitioned into moral decay and serves as a missiological agent for global homosexual depravity.

Libyan Deminstrators Inducted into Rebellion-A Reasoned Transition?
Morphing a non-violent, non-military street protest movement into a violent rebel army must take some time. It seems unreasonable to believe that all people believed the Libyan government of Moamar Khadafy would just throw in the towel and flee off-world for refuge.
http://www.csmonitor.com/World/Backchannels/2011/0330/One-thing-is-clear-in-Libya-Rebels-can-t-advance-without-air-support
Khadafy might have no planetary refuge if he ran, and inevitably world banks would seize his foreign accounts and the broke former dictator would be summoned before some court. These sorts of things are well-known historical characteristics of modern time.
So the peaceful protestors are expected to form a rebel army and begin a long, bloody war against the Libyan government forces. At least former Presidential candidate Wesley Clarke has patience as he mentioned on CNN that even if it takes a year to get Khadafy out, that's o.k. President Obama says the 'noose is drawing tighter' around Khadafy, so we can discern that neutrality is not an option for the administration.
The residue of political fact is that the United States seems committed to some sort of a new war with covert and overt military support for an ill-prepared insurgency in Libya. I am all for democracy, free enterprise and freedom from government radio intimidation, bullets, economic destruction and so forth. Yet I believe that the President should have gone to the congress before starting a war that make take a year or more to wrap up with the dictator's head brought to the President of the United States in a basket. It costs a lot of money if nothing else.
The United States fails to lead in sufficient radical energy change to comprise leadership. Like Winston Churchill who changed the entire British navy to run on oil instead of coal 'just like that', so must the United States give up oil-gasoline for cars instantly and finally like an alcoholic kicking the booze. Entire, nation-wide mass transit and personal transit new technologies must be constructed-and not just choo-choo and corn gasohol repackaging of the 2oth century. Instead, the President invests in the same old solutions to intractable foreign political friction without using new methods of problem solving. I suppose that’s what the nation deserves in leadership since the Presidency isn't that well compensated considering the problems it causes for the candidates and the winner.

relativistic metrics of nomes demarcations
infusing ideas of explanation into the physics
variables of powerful premises

Cycles and metacycles in eternity
God may have been creative before
with a chance to practice infinite Universe constructions already
simplicity flows to complexity
non-being yields to being
from omniscient will
arises infinite, ordered structures
contemplating time

Theories vs. Observable Facts of the Metaverse/Universe
This is a comment about contemporary cosmological topics. I enjoy reading cosmology books by physicists or astronomers occasionally-popular books written for the general public. Over time one gets unanswered ideas. As in language use or about any other kind of learning, synthetic recombination of concepts is a normal experience.
So a few of the most basic concepts of cosmology such as the big bang, the nature of space, gravity and so forth can present some new ideas unanswered by the information in the cosmology publications that one remembers. Following are a few basic questions about the big bang legend that were investigated a long time ago I am sure, yet I can’t recollect reading the answers recently…
Space-time theories such as loop quantum cosmology, string theory and membrane theory tend to draw upon Einstein’s General Theory of Relativity and its equations to construct mathematical models of the history of the Universe backwards in a reduction in size and increase of mass density and energy to a singularity.
The General Theory, I believe, allows an infinite amount of mass and energy to form at the singularity that equations indicate are the precursor of the big bang and inflation of the Universe, yet obviously an infinite amount of energy or mass at any point in the history of the Universe is inconsistent with just a finite amount of energy in the Universe as its sum at any time.
Philosophically I am brought to wonder if physicists have calculated the values for the total quantity of mass-energy in the Universe today based on a 13.7 billion year old start time, and determined how much force all of that mass-energy would have if compacted to a point of any given area-even a very small singular condition. What kind of speed of expansion would it provide if given to expand at that instant long ago?
Reading a book about the research area of loop quantum gravity I realized that the physical theorists make cosmological models at the big bang that are something of yo-yo like recurrent mirror images of the theory of expansion of the Universe on this side (pervasively based on Einstein’s general theory criteria). One actually has no valid reason to assume that the laws of physics on this side of the alleged expansion/inflation are the same as those on the other side with reversed positive or negative signs.
I have read of string theory cosmological explanations of field instability and quantum fluctuations that might have generated a Higgs field to expand, compacted space-atom lattices that would repel themselves given near singularity conditions, and the formation of a white hole and near singularity from a perturbative vacuum, yet I do not recollect reading about the values that a finite singularity with only so much energy and mass to start would have. How large of a Universe of mass and energy could be made consistent with the known speed of expansion and other observable facts of the material of the Universe? What would the size and velocity of the initial explosion need to be in order to be consistent with observations?
There are several ‘fudge factors’ today in cosmology to make theoretical, mathematical criteria work. A cosmological constant, an inflation faster than light, dark energy and dark matter-even anti-matter perhaps, might be considered as fudge factors.
The facts of observations of the Universe are quite excellent today; are there good ‘common sense’ calculations about what size of a singularity the general theory would need to stop at in order to be consistent with the calculated amount of mass-energy of the Universe? Would such comparative calculations help if applied to formulating theories about the mechanics of black holes?
Sure, I realize that it’s said that the Universe did not start from an ordinary a-bomb like explosion. Expansions provide sophisticated parameters with inflation, membranes, quantum instability and etc. Yet if it is regarded as a detonation (perhaps in some kind of a containment medium- (a shaped space field?)) of a finite amount of mass-energy, what kind of values can physicists get, and would they fit the facts of the observable Universe at all?
If there was an infinite amount of mass and energy at a singularity and it exploded, expanded or was repelled then we would never see the end of its expansion I would think, and its power values might be inferred from the observed facts of the mass-energy of the Universe. Instead of treating the infinities of General Relativity as incompleteness or errors, can’t they be regarded as temporal terminus vectors like the summit of mountains? Such places are good places to expand from along the slope of gravity to a broader base.

Promote Change; Get Rid of College Sports
College sports today detract from the necessary academic supremacy of mind over matter on campus. Time and money that go into college sports are used to create a value system of brawn over brains the nation is dumb enough already.
In serving as the minor leagues for pro sports, Americans of athletic skill but lesser academic abilities are left out of the play for pay ladder. Conversely, colleges award degrees to athletes that have no use for the sheepskin except as a prestige item, the club membership presenting an opportunity to provide the wrong role models for a nation in need of intellectual vigor to rectify the environment for long range human survival and biodiversity and space colonization.
Colleges should lose their football, basketball and baseball programs and allow the market to field semi-pro teams to serve as for-pay minor leagues for the pro sports franchises. College sports programs create a socialist training academy for sports that is harmful to honest individual citizens and the true self-employment work ethic in the U.S.A.
Specially gifted college students with outstanding intellectual skills, work ethic and athletic ability could attend classes and then play at sports on a semi-pro team for cash. A vast number of private sector semi-pro sports teams and private sector sports training schools might arise to prepare athletes for athletic careers independently of the academic route thus freeing up classrooms programs for intellectuals.
If baseball players had to go through college to become pro players as they virtually must n football and basketball, it is unlikely that Pete Rose would have made the major leagues, as all he skipped school all he could to practice baseball.

Poverty Lives of Free Quintic Radicals ©2011GaryCGibson (poem)
Of all the lines parallel to another
the best are those running through time
circling past themselves around a black hole
while the magpie calls
raven laughter echoes
Born on the calm ocean
without a storm inn sight
dreaming of troubling notions
on a dark and stormy winter night
These paper clips of poetry fasten
clippings of ancient editorials
printouts from deleted Internet pages
suffused in cyberspace noise of politically incorrect being
For human life is electronic
activated through an Originator’s energy plan
deciphering frozen forms of temporality
basic forces bind recombinations
of atomic clocked spacing.

Before a New Song ©2011GaryCGibson (poem)
Black holes tie up mass in knots
punctuation points in space
far apart
Evenly distributed in infinity mass was
with no center of contingent space to draw nigh
not even the intervals in virtual particle spacing
A drop in the bucket to inflate
space and time together expanding
faster than light oil in water
The brilliant sheen of many colors
temperatures, order, reducing from The One
singular condition of proximal expansion
A wave of space-time concentricity directed
upon the placid, infinite space-time emptiness
mass-energy tumbling like detritus in an avalanche
Stretching forever within the infinite
temporality phenomenalized, past
unraveled quarks, strings returning to silence.

President Obama Defends Libyan Faith Based Revolution
The recent Libyan revolution began without more than a prayer that either Moamar Khadafy would flee at first street protest or President Obama would eventually blast Khadafy’s military to smithereens with cruise missile, bombers and etc. In a speech delivered about ten days after the main phase of the air war started providing close air support to route Khadafy’s forces, the President defended his humanitarian intervention that saved 'thousands of lives' and allowed the rebels to leave their Benghazi stronghold to advance toward Tripoli.
President Obama has plainly made the United States the 800 pound guerilla expressing a desire to throw Col. Khaddafi over the top rope one way or another.
It is useful to review a couple of points of the President’s logic for intervention.
http://www.usnews.com/opinion/blogs/Jamie-Stiehm/2011/03/29/obamas-libya-speech-put-the-best-possible-face-on-his-policy
1) President Obama could have asked Congress for permission to safeguard rebel controlled cities with U.S. air power before Col. khaddafi9 advanced Libya toward Benghazi slaughtering hundreds or thousands on the way; he might not have required piles of dead revolutionaries as a justification to enter the war via the U.N.
2) The United States could have provided relocation assistance for doomed rebels in Benghazi with air, land and seem evacuation to safety instead of militarily intervening.
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton mentioned three ambiguous points speaking to N.A.T.O. in Europe recently. Her third point of the Clinton corollaries to the Obama Doctrine of Protection for Revolutionaries was somewhat difficult to interpret. It was something like 'Revolutionary actions must be supported by change'. This point reminds me of an explanation for a justification for extending the general theory of relativity in a book on loop quantum gravity I have been reading recently.
Fundamentally, that book mentioned the metaphor of the singularity stopping the flow of a continuum such as occurs at a black hole theoretically. Such stoppage can happened when a faucet is turned off and just a drip of space-time or revolutionary change gets through. One must extend the space-time continuum of revolutionary paradigm in some what if organizing a revolutionary criterion.
That point was not well developed by Einstein or Hillary Clinton either. Fore we foresee a grab bag of revolutionary issues in the Middle East ahead that will distract from transitioning to a green, low entropy economy in the United States in addition to creating full employment or at least a minimum guaranteed income for the unemployed.
Where is the moral good, one might wonder, in failing to assassinate Moamar Khadafy if the United States administration is determined to have him go, with no place to go? Thousands of lives would have been saved and still could be with one bullet to the head of The Supreme Guide of Libya. It is difficult to understand why the promulgation of The Big Lie of public propaganda must go on, that the war machine and scores of spook agencies must have full employment and another region of conflict to engage in should be preferable, in addition to the failure to avoid loss of rebel life, failure to file comprehensive environmental impact statements for war activities-when the assassination of The Leader would be far more cost effective of lives, treasure and endangered Libyan species.
I would have preferred a peaceful transition over time as Moamar Khadafy faded away instead of a bloody, violent revolution. Technological progress would have made the dictatorship obsolete in due course it is possible.
If Moamar Khadafy seeks to flee, will the United States allow him to load up his truck convoy with 6 billion in gold and drive south perhaps to refuge in The Ivory Coast, Liberia or some other African nation? Realistically, when Hillary Clinton demands that Khadafy leave, she is demanding that he suicide, for like the former East German Leader Kurt Honaker, he has no where on Earth to go.

Melting Antarctic Icebergs Stimulate Phytoplankton Growth/Chlorophyll/CO2 Absorption
Global warming that may accelerate the loss of ice in Antarctic may be a last line of defense against global warming. Nature seems to have several built in elements to moderate global temperature. It would be wise not to overuse the last ecospheric reserves to absorb carbon dioxide and reduce atmospheric greenhouse gassing effects from human causation.
http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2011/03/110325164224.htm?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+sciencedaily+%28ScienceDaily%3A+Latest+Science+News%29&utm_content=Google+Feedfetcher
In the world's history the atmospheric temperature is believed to have risen significantly before. Also it is believed that high temperatures caused by greenhouse gassing from odd sources such as excessive volcanism or perhaps a thin planetary proto-crust moderated eventually. Temperatures would tend to reflect the primary relationship values of distance from Earth from the heat of the sun, and there may be other factors such as heat from the Earth's hot subsurface in effect too. Just because the melt water from Antarctic icebergs may promote sea plant or phytoplankton growth, it doesn't mean that it will compensate entirely or even mostly for the lowered albido (reflectivity) of vast land mass areas in the north as winter and snow cover decreases annually.
In fact, it seems unlikely that the increase absorption of CO2 caused by the loss of ice from Antarctica would even compensate for the increasing loss of coverage of the Arctic ice cap annually with the increasing heat absorption of the Arctic Ocean.

Square Roots of Minus Dimensions ©2011 GaryCGibson (poem) & Resurrection Points
The neo-Platonist philosopher Plotinus wrote about how The One might have emanated the Universe. Actually the creation of the Universe is a great mystery for finite minds. Cosmological physicists think about the topic all the time though, and sometimes irreverently regard the sketch of order of Genesis from the Bible. We trust in God though for creating Universes more than ourselves. Scientists regard its origin sometimes as a substance that just naturally arose from nothing and/or without cause in some cases finding mathematical logic to support a recycling perpetual recurrent universe.
I too wonder how the One might have created a Universe that arrives as a great tree of life. The idea of the unmoved mover seems best; the Creator of the Universe Himself has no cause as He always existed. Without the mathematics that provide so many excellent sets, infinite series, differential and integral fields to structure models of Universe from I am left to poetics and prose.
Jesus mentioned in John 11 some interesting points when he set about resurrecting his dead friend Lazarus. Before I write my poem below, let me point out what Jesus said about the light not being in man.
The friend of Jesus had died, and Jesus talked of the light not being in man hence he stumbles in the dark. Jesus was addressing four or five points simultaneously it appears. He was talking about the problem of sin in mankind (people had sought to stone him) and referring to those people as being in spiritual darkness who did not see the light of the world (God) Jesus Christ, and he was also referring to his dead friend Lazarus who had not life in himself any more (a lack of quarks or strings configured to produce life), furthermore, being dead, Lazarus could not negotiate in the world beyond without resurrection. That was a hint of the spiritual world to come in which actual spiritual resurrection occurs better than physical resurrection such as would be done for Lazarus soon.
John 11" 1Now a certain man was sick, named Lazarus, of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha.
2(It was that Mary which anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.)
3Therefore his sisters sent unto him, saying, Lord, behold, he whom thou lovest is sick.
4When Jesus heard that, he said, This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God might be glorified thereby.
5Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.
6When he had heard therefore that he was sick, he abode two days still in the same place where he was.
7Then after that saith he to his disciples, Let us go into Judaea again.
8His disciples say unto him, Master, the Jews of late sought to stone thee; and goest thou thither again?
9Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world.
10But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because there is no light in him.
11These things said he: and after that he saith unto them, Our friend Lazarus sleepeth; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep.
12Then said his disciples, Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well.
13Howbeit Jesus spake of his death: but they thought that he had spoken of taking of rest in sleep.
14Then said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead."
Then we move to the scene of the resurrection of Lazarus. Jesus actually wept in this setting-the only time He is known to have done so as he felt so bad about losing His friend to death. This is good. It indicates that God took seriously the issue of the death of a human being, and knows that resurrection is important to us humans.
John 11"
33When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews also weeping which came with her, he groaned in the spirit, and was troubled.
34And said, Where have ye laid him? They said unto him, Lord, come and see.
35Jesus wept.
36Then said the Jews, Behold how he loved him!
37And some of them said, Could not this man, which opened the eyes of the blind, have caused that even this man should not have died?
38Jesus therefore again groaning in himself cometh to the grave. It was a cave, and a stone lay upon it.
39Jesus said, Take ye away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith unto him, Lord, by this time he stinketh: for he hath been dead four days.
40Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God?
41Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead was laid. And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me.
42And I knew that thou hearest me always: but because of the people which stand by I said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me.
43And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth.
44And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with graveclothes: and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus saith unto them, Loose him, and let him go."

I too wonder how the One might have created a Universe that arrives as a great tree of life. The idea of the unmoved mover seems best; the Creator of the Universe Himself has no cause as He always existed.
