George Zimmerman, the 28 year old neighborhood watch guy who shot 17 year old Trayvon Martin, has gone in to hiding having received death threats. Zimmerman is not white, but appears to be the composite 'melting pot man' who speaks Spanish and probably has some white, negro, American Indian and other racially diverse genes. Racial purists-fundamentally African Americans in this instance, mistakenly believed Zimmerman was a white American victimizing an innocent black youth thus affording the opportunity for vast expressions of racial outrage in this Presidential election year. The Rev. Al Sharpton visited Sanford Florida to express solidarity with the Martins and a million people signed a petition at change.org to have Mr. Zimmerman arrested.

The trial of Shawn Tyson, a young black males who is alleged to have shot to death two Brits in Sarasota Florida in April of last year at age 16 'since you ain't got no money I got something for your ass' has begun. http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/since-you-aint-got-no-money-769178
In the year 2008 then United States experienced about 14,000 murders. More than 6000 blacks were killed with an equal number of whites. Evidently there is some basis for concern about the behavior of some Florida youngsters.There were few others adding to the statistics that year-just 597.
In 2009 there were fewer than 60 killings of suspected felons in the U.S.A. more than 9000 murders were done with weapons.
http://www.census.gov/compendia/statab/2012/tables/12s0310.pdf
In 2005 blacks were about 13% of the U.S. population and committed more than 50% of the murders that years. White committed most of the rest, yet they are more numerous in the population.

The F.B.I. reported that in 2009 murder investigations cost about $263 billion dollars.
There has been a variable range of about 50 police officers killed in the line of duty in the United States each of the past few years.
http://crimeinamerica.net/2009/12/17/police-shootings2009-a-dangerous-year-for-police/
The national statistics for the controversial subject of 'justifiable' killings of black Americans during the 1990s is rather interesting. Blacks comprised 42% of individuals killed, while police officers killed by blacks was 43% total. With a large badly educated, under or non-employed gang influenced young population living in poor areas crimes occur.
http://bjs.ojp.usdoj.gov/content/pub/ascii/ph98.txt
Whites were the agents of death for 56% of police shootings during the 1990's.
The report cited above reports that each year about 400 people-violent felons, are killed in the U.S.A.
George Zimmerman was no police officer, yet he was acting in a dangerous field. One would prefer that a cool rational law enforcement approach would replace the radical, untruthful and inaccurate lynch mob PR hunts that arise in the U.S.A. too commonly. The media is the 800-pound gorilla that brutalizes the life of anyone they profile in a bad light intentionally or unintentionally.
The shooting of Trayvon Martin has yet to yield the sort of C.S.I. material the public should have become familiar with. The number of bullets, angle of trajectory, entry/exist wounds, posture of the victim, distance and etc alone can be revealing. The Grand Jury and prosecutor given sufficient time ought to shed light on the circumstances of the tragic incident.

In Praise of Folly: U.S. Rep. Edward Markey (D-Mass.)
Representative Markey has introduced two bills that would block export of Alaska natural gas to Japan and China. Japan is trying to move away from reliance on nuclear power and China is the worlds major greenhouse gas emitter burning vast amounts of coal. Each nation would pay hard cash for Alaska liquified natural gas.
Representative Markey's anti-environmental position is fundamentally daft. Ostensibly it is intended to prevent sale of resources on public lands to Asia. Yet forest products have been sold to Asia from federal lands since the Eisenhower administration and in Alaska several valuable mines are owned and operated by foreign nationals though I personally hate the danger to the ecosphere they present. BP and Shell amongst others each lease offshore federal oil prospects and the Obama administration has promised more.
The President was also in Oklahoma yesterday offering support for the southern half of the Keystone pipeline from Canada to port Arthur Texas. As it is oil products pile up in Oklahoma and the Canadian developer of the pipeline wants to export refined gasoline to Latin America. Basically the representative's position works against economic reality and is probably intended to harrass the state of Alaska for some odd leftist 'reason'.
The timing is especially bad for the daft obstructionist policies that would block earnings for Alaskans as well as tax payments to the federal government. The state legislature is in the midst of a bit of a battle over the taxation of oil in the state especially the North Slope. The oil fields flowing through the trans-Alaska pipeline are in decline and the revenues are anticipated to decline as well. The Governor is asking for lower taxes to stimulate extra drilling and the Exxon-Mobile guy testified recently in support of that direction.
Natural Gas sales to Asia are a logical alternative to reliance upon extra oil development in the state of Alaska. Lower tax rates actually would not stimulate Exxon-Mobil development much I wouold guess since it has vast oil vields in Iraq that may be developed and out-produce Saudia Arabia in a few years. It gets record profits every year or three and the price of oil versus quantities of prpoduction effect it to; supply and demand.
Developing marginal oil fields in Alaska would not be the best environmental course at all forn the U.S.A. to take at the present time. Representative Markey is on the side of those trying to stop alternative energy and income and compell reliance upon the same old oil field expoloration and development including offshore in critical habit for northern wildlife.
If the state of Alaska could develop a reliable, cleaner energy sales infrastructure it might be able to stop being dependent on and a pawn of the big oil corporations that drain public resources and effect national foreign policy too much. Representative Markey ought to support sale of Alaska's natural gas today since the nation is awash in that product. The fracking of gas fields promises abundant supply to the nation's wasteful use of natural gas in its badly thought out energy and transport infrastructure. There is so much gas that the construction of a natural gas pipeline to the lower forty-eight states through Canada is probably not going to happen. The U.S. Government if Representative Markey has its way will need to ramp up its outlay of tax revenue sharing from the 48 states to Alaska in the future to compensate for the lack of cash earnings in the state as well as to clean up the mess the oil producers will make with new Exxon Valdez' all over again.

Media 'Klan' Godes 'Lynching' of Zimmerman
That headline is a little sensational, yet so seems the N.P.R./Awk Poink/ N.A.A.C.P./Congressional/F.B.I. interest in the shooting of Trayvon Martin by a Neighborhood Watch Captain named George Zimmerman.
Taking a human life by a private security guard in the United States is preponderantly wrong. Regular police are trained far better on judgments about when to pull the trigger than private cops. Private cops ought to just observe, perhaps follow and report to regular police any criminal or suspected criminal activities rather than try to arrest them. I saw a vicious tackle on asphalt outside a Wal-Mart store in Anchorage last summer by a Wal-Mart security guy in plain clothes of a suspected shoplifter trying to run away. It is easy to imagine numerous circumstances where a private cop perhaps daydreaming of cops and robbers might pull the trigger on real or imagined threats.
C.N.N. reported on a 'million hoodie march' in New York in support of the deceased. They also reported of an 800,000 signature petition at change.org. If Zimmerman was a white man the political advantage would be greater than it is for the Hispanic with 'several black family members'. It is unlikely that the outrage alliance is protesting the politics of Florida since Ponce De Leon visited or St. Augustine was founded. One hopes they are simply protesting violence by young Hispanics or blacks or even of Chinese, whites and Brits in the sunshine state.
http://edition.cnn.com/2012/03/21/justice/florida-teen-shooting/index.html
Rene Lynch writing for the L.A. Times in the following link included a photo of Mr. Zimmerman from his Orange County (Florida) arrest mug shot a few years ago. So far I haven't read of comparative height-weight stats of the two individuals involved in the shooting.
http://www.latimes.com/news/nation/nationnow/la-na-nn-george-zimmerman-trayvon-martin-20120320,0,1508238.story
The National Sheriff's Association who run the Neighborhood Watch Program say that Zimmerman wasn't registered with that program. Local police say though that he helped get a thief arrested and had called 9-11 about 50 times. If he was a Neighborhood Watch volunteer vigilante that underscores the dangers of non-police trained personnel in carrying a gun for security ops even on private property such as in a gated community.
That being said, the lynch mob mentality in the media is a danger to individual civil liberties of all Americans. Because N.P.R. and Awk Poink as well as numerous other media outlets have heavily publicized the incident George Zimmerman's life is effectively ruined even if he was entirely innocent. If not arrested because of public demand and perhaps murdered in jail by a gang member, Zimmerman will at least have the permanent wrath of perhaps tens of millions pf people who know nothing of him or the case personally.
Zimmerman is not white; he is Hispanic and probably part negro of the Puerto Rican variety. The case does not perhaps comprise a hate crime criterion, for Zimmerman would need to be more of a raw fish eating blond Norwegian with a red haired General Hood or General Gordon of the Confederacy for forefathers and less Carribbean in aqppearance to get the Obama Administration justice department righteously involved on a sustainable basis.
George Zimmerman's father wrote in a letter to the Orlando Sentinel that: “George is a Spanish speaking minority with many black family members and friends. He would be the last to discriminate for any reason whatsoever.... The media portrayal of George as a racist could not be further from the truth... “At no time did George follow or confront Mr. Martin. When the true details of the event become public, and I hope that will be soon, everyone should be outraged by the treatment of George Zimmerman in the media.”
http://www.sun-sentinel.com/os-trayvon-martin-shooting-zimmerman-letter-20120315,0,5792590,full.story
In a month the Seminole County Grand jury will decide if the Zimmerman ought to be charged with a crime. The Sanford Police Department has already said they found insufficient grounds for charges. So where does that usual turn of events leave the lynch mob crying out for racial justice now (the Syrian thing isn't going so well presently)?
One can assume that the invocation of the hate crimes trump card means that the Sanford Police Department, Seminole County Grand jury, Florida State Police and the Florida legal justice system are presumed incompetent and biased by the aforementioned 'lynch' mob.
The poor from Get 0s experienced a variety of socialization challenges. In America today's badly educated youth follow behind badly performing politicians that couldn't pay down the federal debt given a hundred years. What is needed is good leadership of a bi-partisan nature in Congress. Taxes must be raised on the rich and middle class and 25% of the Defense Department budget eliminated right away. Means tests for social security must screen out those earning more than the average American wage, and practically that means that America is out of luck with the corrupt Democratic middle class party mentioning the word poor only when necessary to have some excuse to hide behind to get something elese they want for the middle class; the poor have no representation in Congress so they are the ones that lose out getting zero in their life experience.
Too large of houses that working people are at high risk of losing their investment in because they don't have 30 year job security like the people of the 60's. Opportunity, risk and defense strategies are elements of chess and economic planning. The political leaders and spoiled middle class with too large houses, too large of loans and foreign mortgage owners leave these Trayvon Martins of Florida to wander without good and safe mass transport systems through spoiled gated communities fueled by the world of idiot internal combustion engine driving CO2 emitters as deleterious as herds of cattle globally contributing quantifiable flatulence. America is just waiting for that cheap Exxon-Mobile gas-field from Iraq to kick in and help drive up Greenhouse gassing and beat down the 4 bucks a gallon fuel price to 2 dollah. The Exxon Valdez/Oriental Nicety has finally been scrapped selling for a junkyard in India for 16 million bucks after 23 years of life. The on-foot youth of Florida haven't even got safe jogging trails or bike paths to ride on preponderantly and must risk their lives to reach the haven of the convenience store.
How lucky the nation is that a veritable most Klan like public outcry for justice since the Klan did lynchings in the south has arisen to get on Florida's legal and political authorities that may have segregated minorities right out of jobs as police persons, attorneys and politicians; or maybe not.
Florida passed a 'Stand Your Ground' law that changed the criterion wherein one may use deadly force in self-defense. The article link following is from a New York newspaper. When I worked in Florida many years ago I did get a little New York accent-there are so many New Yorkers in that state its tough to avoid it unless maybe one works with the Guatamalans in shovel-ready labor.
http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/trayvon-martin-case-sponsors-florida-stand-ground-law-george-zimmerman-arrested-article-1.1048164
Private citizens may get concealed carry weapons permits for self-defense basically, yet as part of private security it is wrong for that occupation to use guns as part of the job unless guarding money of the top 1%. The cry of the Klan for justice should result in a new policy of unarmed security guards being the rule. When I was a security officer for a few months in Texas I did not have a weapon. I did use a typewriter occasionally and would have like having a Uzi with white rhino ammunition and a suspended shoulder strap to enforce better discipline at checking I.D. for people going in and out of the building yet that, I think, would have been overkill.

The Bose-Einstein Cosmology Poem
Reciting poems as if they were non-linear phrases
these two dimensional numbers
something encountered in the wilderness
expanding like solid-state phases of the microspheric foundation
actualizing the Universe
representing Einstein’s field equations writ large
uv constants of variable quantities of dimensions
holographic field variables of change
Light divides the darkness
with distance no problem
phase transitions of zero-degree Universes
zero-point energy agitating through statistical uncertainty
toward negative temperatures of stressed membranes
the eigenvalues of quantum spin state
lined up like zeros on a slot machine
in Bose-Einstein condensate array unto oneness
kinetic energy and gravity without quantum uncertainty
slipping toward the minus realm of .999999... heat
one-ness from non-motion transitioning into literals
values of temperature as energy and motion
Above and below a Universe
the metaphysics of time and space
exist like a Rubik’s cube of changing places
abstracted from eternity
the darkness comprehending it not
the practical workspace of potential
giving way to salvation for the temporal world beings
skating over the Universal wonders
and the true colors of ice
in a phenomenon of right
Entangled numbers emerge from a fog
uncertainty shrouds space-time like an incomplete blog
all-possible worldlines unset for the 2nd Coming of Christ
in one place yet everywhere rests the prophetic list
known and knowable
being and becoming
space-time, energy potential
surging through energetic layers sunning
like rifted condensate essentials
light dropped into the cold night
being the sound of atoms forming
planets and life driven aright
Uncertainty upon uncertainty compiling as structured formations
seasoned as Carbon 12 steaks
grilled on lakeshore's temporal fires
where humans ruled
themselves like shadows in dreams
the silence in dreams
with the noises of minds
crossing over lines of sun dials time
wild eclipse of reasons
to see the Universe's end
less than quarks in the night
embers of fires fading sight
toward the uncertainty of light
Bose-Einstein condensates into membranes
absolute cold transforming into plasma
unto the uncertainty arises down
the Word spoken to Begin.

President Obama Passes G..W. Bush to Set All-Time U.S. Public Debt Invention Record
President Obama has created nearly 5 trillion dollars of public debt and has plans to create more and more if re-elected; possible doubling that total to ten trillion dollars or more of his own economic invention. At least the Wall Street sector is running hot thanks to the President's tax cuts for the rich in December 2010 and failure to reform government spending.

Manning to Broncos; NFC Improved in 2012-13
The decision of Peyton Manning to move up from the Colts to the Broncos was just one of a fascinating number of quarterback movements in the off-season. The NFC looks to be the best it has been in quite a while with at least ten teams in capable of reaching the playoffs and Superbowl.
Tebow's passing style might have been a little frustrating to watch for John Elway-the GM of the Broncos. Elway himself was something like Jim McMahon with better passing stats and Tebow more like Tony Romo.
If Alex Smith signs with Miami then Tebow might be the Q.B for San Francisco-he would be a good influence on the City by The Bay and may have a calling to work for Coach Harbaugh.
With the NFL draft next month the off-season becomes even more interesting. The Cowboys ought to finish last or next to last in their division the next five seasons as the Redskins and Panthers rise while the Giants remain somewhat the same.
The actual football season may be an anti-climax to the off-season chess game of player acquisition.
Teams with a good chance to make the Superbowl in 2012-13 are everyone in the NFC East except the Cowboys and Eagles. The Chicago Bears, Seattle Seahawks, Arizona Cardinals, New Orleans Saints, Green Bay Packers, St. Louis Rams and San Francisco 49ers. The level of competition is improved over the past decade regarding AFC vs NFC quality. The Broncos in the AFC are obvious possibilities to reach the Superbowl as well as other perennial AFC teams such as the Steelers and Patriots.

Bose-Einstein Condensates & 'Absolute' High and Low Temperatures of the Universe
The phenomenon of sound occurs in the mind rather than in the world for-itself. Waveforms occur in the world for-themselves, as one might regard everything as a waveform.
That is a challenging topic for physics however. The wave function of Schrodinger and the discussion of light as a photon or wave (Michaelson-Morley experiment) are millestones on the road of discovery.
If the Universe is made of information alone as in the Holographic Theory, then bits of data could be converted into representation as sound.
Although one can see waves in the water and waves in other mediums-even gravitational waves are thought to exist by some that make ripples in space-time, it is not certain at all that at the smallest scale-if there is one, that waves exist.
The Bose-Einstein condensate is a substance that can be made by cooling neutrons down to absolute zero wherein they lose their individual identies and become one substance without motion. Motion is the basis for temperature and for energy and at absolute zero no waveforms might occur either, yet intuitively one believes that to be wrong. Even in a Bose-Einstein condensate neutrons or anything existing should have some sort of wave-motion implicitly though it may all coincide into being one wave representing all-possible locations that it could be.
One must wonder if Bose-Einstein condensates could be made to have quantum entanglement.
These things in space are wave-forms of things of quantum construction with uncertainty at the core.
The Arecibo radio telescope collects radio waves. One cannot hear radio waves without a radio to convert that wavelength of the electro-magnetic spectrum into vibrations in the air that a human eardrum will send to the brain where it is transformed into the experience of noise.
There is a powerful new radio telescope under construction in the Andes mountains of Chile. It is named the Alma Telescope (Atacama Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array telescope) and it has already taken a 'picture' of very deep space. Radio waves can be converted into light wavelengths evidently, though it is the most complex radio telescope in the world. It will be fully operational in 2013.

I was reading a book on physical constants recently and encountered the idea that temperature is motion/energy of particles/waves. The absence of motion is absolute zero-a temperature on the fahrenheit scale regarded as -459.67 degrees.
Absolute zero; the true absence of motion is said in the wikipedia to be regarded as improbable because zero-point energy still occurs and that kinetic energy is temperature.
I suppose one might regard that quantum uncertainty that is a fundamental part of quantum mechanics as a field for itself that appears do locate at particular places and times as a phenomenal artifact of observation. In the book I am reading the quantum spin states of the mass was itself considered in order to illustrate the point about temperature and motion at the absolute zero range.
The example given was I think of quarks with made one or two spin states such as up or down, right or left. Imagine that in a Bose-Einstein condensate there are a hundred quarks given the same spin state characteristics such as U(UP)-R(RIght) or UR. Then one through some means turns them all to the zero-energy setting and one has achieved absolute zero (though the nature of quanta means that they still have zero-point energy) because they only seem to be where they are because they are being observed).
The interesting point I found was that the setting below the absolute zero setting of quantum spin states (eigenvalues in shop talk) might be like that on the odometer of one electric car-at zero setting if one rolls it back further it becomes the infinitely high temperature! Below absolute zero there may be absolute hell thermodynamically speaking.
Beneath the quantum phase surface of this Universe there may be an absolute hell. Perhaps if the Universe does expand far enough for enough time that is cools down from its average three degrees Kelvin near enough to absolute zero the Universe may convert from absolute cold and entropy to an infinitely high temperature although one might reasonably guess that mass cannot have an infinitely high temperature any more than an infinitely low temperature. Mass has limits on its energy range if it is to exist at all.

At the beginning of the Universe the temperature according to the standard model of physics might have been 1032 Kelvin.
Einsteins Field Equations for the General Theory of Relativity would provide math that yields the idea that the temperature might be infinite then-however Einstein did not know too much about quantum spin states then, although he did create the idea of the Bose-EInstein condensate given Bose's mathematical concepts on photons within a paradigm of statistical mechanics. The 'infinite' value for high temperature or energy may be a concurrence of quantum spin states. At a high enough temperature mass loses its individuating cooler characteristics somewhat like a Bose-Einstein condensate does (a very different result though).
That is a challenging topic for physics however. The wave function of Schrodinger and the discussion of light as a photon or wave (Michaelson-Morley experiment) are millestones on the road of discovery.
If the Universe is made of information alone as in the Holographic Theory, then bits of data could be converted into representation as sound.
Although one can see waves in the water and waves in other mediums-even gravitational waves are thought to exist by some that make ripples in space-time, it is not certain at all that at the smallest scale-if there is one, that waves exist.
The Bose-Einstein condensate is a substance that can be made by cooling neutrons down to absolute zero wherein they lose their individual identies and become one substance without motion. Motion is the basis for temperature and for energy and at absolute zero no waveforms might occur either, yet intuitively one believes that to be wrong. Even in a Bose-Einstein condensate neutrons or anything existing should have some sort of wave-motion implicitly though it may all coincide into being one wave representing all-possible locations that it could be.
One must wonder if Bose-Einstein condensates could be made to have quantum entanglement.
