"The Majority"...The nicer word for stereotyping..maybe even more sophisticated...

2009-09-24T07:01:01Z

On the topic, the meaning of inspiration.

"As we can see, the dimensions of the word are severely limited. There is no reference to divine influence, which can change people’s lives. The reason is very simple: Albania was officially declared an atheist state in 1967, when the regime abolished religion and began persecuting believers, executing Christian and Muslim clergy."
-Anton B. Fistani

"It is true, that we are living in a century in which we need to look back in times in order to discover the meaning of a true inspiration. And today, can we be so harsh as to state that this noble phenomenon of mind and spirit of humanity is inclining more and more toward the facets of materialistic “inspiration” or better saying is going near the threshold of its extinction? “

Does anyone else agree with this?? Its not even pessimistic to say such things about the human race because its scientifically proven now with millions and millions of studies and researches!

Cyber 773

The Examiner, September 2, 2009

http://www.examiner.com/x-21184-Homeland-Security-Examiner~y2009m9d2-Senate-Bill-773--Cyber-Security-or-Cyber-Control

The internet this past weekend was filled with articles and comments regarding what has become known as the "Rockefeller-Snowe" bill. This bill, identified in the Senate as S. 773, relates to Cyber-Security for the United States Government. Its intent is to allow for the creation of a uniformed set of cyber-security standards, enforcement and enforcement means, public education, cyber-security worker recruitment processes, and presidential authority in times of Cyber-Emergency.

The author of this article has taken the time to read the text of Senate Bill 773. As legislative documents go, this Bill is relatively short - only 55 pages in length. For the most part, the Bill makes a lot of sense. It begins with a series of background and justifications for the existence of such a statute and moves into the meat-n-potatoes of the subject. And, for the most part, the legislative piece has some very good provisions that range from uniformed government standards for cyber-security to scholarships for aspiring cyber-security students. However, there is indeed a provision in the act that deserves the alarm that has been raised over the weekend.

The problem comes in the Bill’s language found in Sections 18(2), 18(3), 18(6), and 23(3)(b). In these sections and sub-sections the Bill provides the President of the United States with the authority to shut-off or limit the internet traffic for all systems in the National, State, local, and NON-GOVERNMENTAL INFORMATION SYSTEMS in times where he/she has declared a "Cyber-Emergency." The use of the term "Non-Governmental information systems" is what has drawn so much fire from the public and numerous civil liberties organizations.

2. Have an active member base of 20 people in Growing Louisville Green. I have a feeling this is going to take off now that I met Joseph! ^_^

3. Find sincere friends that are into the electronic scene or dance about 60 miles radius of me...I want to spend time with someone worth it & maintain that friendship for a lifetime. *crosses toes*

the day i find genuine friendship(s) within a genuine individual(s)..a family system within friends..people I could spend nearly all my time with, making music, creating magical videos, dancing in the allure of conservation..learning, teaching, listening, being a part of life & loving every minute of it...no question of the sincerity, pure...nothing hidden, completely open...
will be the day i can feel and say, i have lived a very satisfying, fulfilled life, to feel the serenity of not being alone, the warming comfort of another close to you, the empowerment of harmony & unification.. my emotions will finally find common ground.. the answer to my life balancer, my lifelong stability. not within just a person, but a higher than consciousness feeling that comes along with it...a feeling of freedom, openness, unity, self exploration, the feeling of being a child again, when there was no corruption.but still keeping all we have acquired through hardships..an intense, impacted understanding of human beings..to the point of perhaps, chivalry....or dare i say it...humility.
why is this so impossible to find? to achieve? does it exist outside of the cosmos? i would die to have friends like raja ram, michele adamson, or simon posford...i read their blogs, comments to one another, and wish i had connections like they all have together..its a beautiful bond, its truly divine..maybe one day i will find my true friends whom i can roam with to share the amazing experiences of life
til then...i will remain hopeful,loyal, alone,compassionate and how everyone else would define it: naive.

Louisville Psychiatrist

2009-04-20T00:41:28Z

Hello Louisville! I am looking for a new psychiatrist in the area that would be recommended...My doctor suddenly took a year vacation and have been searching (with no luck) to find a doctor who specializes in ADHD/ADD/cognitive and behavior therapy..Its been hell trying to get my medicine, and my primary doctor will only write me a few scrips due to the fact he knows nothing about psychology (which is understandable).
I want to find a doctor who actually cares my well being, listens to his patients and believes in temporary medicinal treatment. I'd be forever grateful if someone could refer me to a good office that isn't U of L related. For personal reasons, I rather not affliate with them..My ideal doctor would be an independent doctor that thinks alternatively and out of the box. Thanks in advance!

Attitude

2009-02-12T14:38:57Z

The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money,than circumstances, than failure, than successes, than what otherpeople think or say or do.
It is more important than appearance,giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company... a church... a home.
The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... we cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is playon one string we have,and that is our attitude... I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it. And so it is with you...we are in charge of our Attitudes. ~Charles Swindoll

2008-11-26T14:51:23Z

Maybe I just haven't been keeping up wiht the worldly news as much as I thought but theres a few headliners in World News today that really surprised me and deem of high importance.

Wladyslaw Sikorski, Polands past prime minster, body is being dug up to run some tests to see what the cause of his death was. Thank goodness for advancement in technology?
For a brief moment yesterday Cracow’s ancient Royal cathedral, resting place of Polish kings, queens, saints and heroes, came to resemble a crime scene investigation.

Gloved and masked forensic scientists lifted the fragile skeleton of General Wladyslaw Sikorski, Poland’s wartime leader, out of his marble tomb, wrapped him in foil and subjected the body to the latest tests available to modern science – tomography scans, DNA samples, a search for trace elements of poisons.

The aim was to shed light on one of the enduring secrets of the Second World War. Was General Sikorski, whose body was recovered after an air crash in the Straits of Gibraltar in July 1943, murdered by the Russians? Or even by the British?

The coffin, draped in the red-and-white Polish flag, was carried out of St Leonard’s crypt on the Wawel Hill, out of a cathedral door inscribed with the Latin motto Corpora dormiunt vigilant animae – the bodies are asleep, the souls are awake – and into a dark-windowed hearse for the short journey to the Cracow Institute of Radiology. Overhead, a helicopter hovered as if to shield the dead general from yet another assault. It was an extraordinary episode, a token of how deeply disturbed the relationship between Poland and Russia has become. The day before the exhumation of Sikorski, Lech Kaczynski, the Polish President, was attacked in Georgia while in a convoy with Mikheil Saa-kashvili, his Georgian counterpart, who promptly blamed the Russians for trying to shoot him.
The investigation into Sikorski’s death was supposed to put an end to more than half a century of conspiracy theories. “The exhumation may bring a breakthrough in the investigation,” said Andrzej Drogon, of the National Remembrance Institute, which formally opened the case after a book presented fresh information suggesting that Moscow was behind the death.

In April 1943 the general, who was head of the Polish government-in-exile, had demanded an explanation for thousands of Polish officers found murdered in the Katyn forest, near Smolensk in western Russia. All the indications were that this was a crime committed not by the Nazis, but by the NKVD, Stalin’s secret police.

The Kremlin, meanwhile, was making moves towards creating a communist-sponsored Polish government for the postwar period. Sikorski had become a serious problem for Moscow. On July 4, 1943, Sikorski, his daughter Zofia and a group of officers took off from Gibraltar. Within 16 seconds they had crashed into the rocks below.

A computer simulation carried out by Warsaw University of Technology in 1992 found that the Liberator aircraft could not have crashed into the sea for technical reasons, given the speed and height that it had reached as testified by the Czech pilot at the original British investigation in 1943.

As a result, one theory was that the pilot, the only survivor, had brought down the aircraft deliberately. Sikorski was found in a lifejacket, even though he was famed for not wearing one for superstitious reasons. Even more mysteriously, the body of his daughter was not found – but reliable Polish witnesses said that they saw her in the Soviet Gulag in 1945.

Fingers were pointed at the British in a 1980s film by Bogdan Poreba, a Polish director, because the general had spent the previous evening at the governor’s residence in Gibraltar. Was he disposed of for being an embarrassment to the British Government at a time when Winston Churchill was having to align himself more and more with Stalin?

A further complicating factor was that the head of the Iberian Peninsula section of MI6 at the time was Kim Philby, who was already working for the Russians. Could he have had a hand in it? “There really is no evidence at all that Philby was in Gibraltar at the time, more likely he was in St Albans,” said Jacek Tebinka, of Gdansk University. “He was not some kind of James Bond figure, assassinating people or tampering with engines.”

Researchers yesterday were trying to determine whether there was any trace of poison left in the skeleton, whether there was any sign of a bullet wound and, indeed, whether the body really was that of the general.

DNA swabs have been taken from the grandchildren of the general’s sister. When the body was recovered from the sea, no forensic scientific examination was carried out. First results are expected by the end of the year.

Many historians believe that even the elaborate exhumation will not give a decisive verdict on the cause of death. At the very least it will pile up pressure on the British Government to declassify secret documents on the affair.

A general in wartime exile

— Wladyslaw Sikorski was born in 1881 to a parish organ player in the Austrian zone of partitioned Poland

— He fought with distinction during the First World War, and played a prominent role in the later Battle of Warsaw against Russian forces

— His political career began in 1921 when he became chief of general staff in the new Polish state. He was appointed prime minister in 1922, but his government soon collapsed

— He fell out of favour after a coup in 1926 but, at the outbreak of the Second World War, took command of the Polish Army in France and then became leader of the Polish government-in-exile

and

BANGKOK, Nov. 26 (Xinhua) -- Thousands of chanting protesters wearing yellow T-shirts and waving national flags have demonstrated on two consecutive days in what they say is an effort to topple the Thai government.

Analysts say it would be no easy job to end the years-long political turmoil that has been marked by accusations and unceasing protests and that the turbulence will cause Thailand's economy additional disturbances.

Finland!

Finland (ranked the fourth happiest nation in the world)
Happiness level: 7.7
Population: 5,307,578
GDP per capita: $34,819

Happy fact: Finland is the freest nation in the world when it comes to civil liberties, freedom of the press, low corruption levels and high levels of political rights, according to its World Audit Democracy profile. And over 75% of citizens' health care costs are funded by public entities. Traffic ticket fines are based on your ability to pay. One 27-year-old Finnish Internet entrepreneur, pulled over in his BMW doing 43 miles an hour in a 25-mph zone, was slapped with a $71,400 fine. A 26-year-old grad student paid $82 for a similar offense. He was happier.

Tell me ANYTHING about Finland...I love the hell out of the culture but don't really know a lot about Finland...definitely not as much as I want to know. I'd love to hear what everyone thinks about the country or any cool useless facts is appreciated too. <3

since I last updated. I was going to try to blog but realized it was too much hussle to get set up plus LJ already has peoples journals I care about reading..it took me a long time to find these people! Not dishing that out...Normally my motto is to achieve greater, and better things in life but for once, I'll settle with the original. :D I'm excited to get back in journaling mode.
So excited I created this picture:

Everything breathes, life is surrounding us...

Where did the tremendously outrageous piano coome from? Ahhhhh.....Acir? Are you there? OOOoooEEEaaaaa.......the veterans riding on their harleys stopped the traffic in mid float.
The cabalistic pedestals of our society! Cone of power. Circles producing the power which rises to the apex of the cone which extends into infinity~ mayhem.."I can't taste anything"!!

Life is so terribly real and unreal at the same time....The McCoy of life being in the center of me which evolutes every tiny molecule together into one piece making it one whole and worth seeing. Ponder that! We are a reflection of light, our entire beings just happen to exist through the radiant rays of sunshine. Without sunshine, what is there?? Voluminous of nothingness... We are a reflection of each other, mirroring our souls back and forth like a metronome that keeps us in balance and just enough satisfaction to not dive off the big apple. But when you come into realization of all this...the metronome comes to a creeping and absolute stop. Everything is completely Insane. No more balance....no more patterns...no more rhythm! just YOU and your brain........with nothing to abide by...oh, the wonders......

Jesus, this journal still exists?

Oh, and I whupped batmans ass and the vultures ate my dead ass up.

Albert Hoffman's first experience

2006-09-26T04:14:02Z

4/19/43 16:20: 0.5 cc of 1/2 promil aqueous solution of diethylamide tartrate orally = 0.25 mg tartrate. Taken diluted with about 10 cc water. Tasteless.
17:00: Beginning dizziness, feeling of anxiety, visual distortions, symptoms of paralysis, desire to laugh.

Supplement of 4/21: Home by bicycle. From 18:00- ca.20:00 most severe crisis. (See special report.)

Here the notes in my laboratory journal cease. I was able to write the last words only with great effort. By now it was already clear to me that LSD had been the cause of the remarkable experience of the previous Friday, for the altered perceptions were of the same type as before, only much more intense. I had to struggle to speak intelligibly. I asked my laboratory assistant, who was informed of the self-experiment, to escort me home. We went by bicycle, no automobile being available because of wartime restrictions on their use. On the way home, my condition began to assume threatening forms. Everything in my field of vision wavered and was distorted as if seen in a curved mirror. I also had the sensation of being unable to move from the spot. Nevertheless, my assistant later told me that we had traveled very rapidly. Finally, we arrived at home safe and sound, and I was just barely capable of asking my companion to summon our family doctor and request milk from the neighbors.
In spite of my delirious, bewildered condition, I had brief periods of clear and effective thinking - and chose milk as a nonspecific antidote for poisoning.

The dizziness and sensation of fainting became so strong at times that I could no longer hold myself erect, and had to lie down on a sofa. My surroundings had now transformed themselves in more terrifying ways. Everything in the room spun around, and the familiar objects and pieces of furniture assumed grotesque, threatening forrns. They were in continuous motion, animated, as if driven by an inner restlessness. The lady next door, whom I scarcely recognized, brought me milk - in the course of the evening I drank more than two liters. She was no longer Mrs. R., but rather a malevolent, insidious witch with a colored mask.

Even worse than these demonic transformations of the outer world, were the alterations that I perceived in myself, in my inner being. Every exertion of my will, every attempt to put an end to the disintegration of the outer world and the dissolution of my ego, seemed to be wasted effort. A demon had invaded me, had taken possession of my body, mind, and soul. I jumped up and screamed, trying to free myself from him, but then sank down again and lay helpless on the sofa. The substance, with which I had wanted to experiment, had vanquished me. It was the demon that scornfully triumphed over my will. I was seized by the dreadful fear of going insane. I was taken to another world, another place, another time. My body seemed to be without sensation, lifeless, strange. Was I dying? Was this the transition? At times I believed myself to be outside my body, and then perceived clearly, as an outside observer, the complete tragedy of my situation. I had not even taken leave of my family (my wife, with our three children had traveled that day to visit her parents, in Lucerne). Would they ever understand that I had not experimented thoughtlessly, irresponsibly, but rather with the utmost caution, an-d that such a result was in no way foreseeable? My fear and despair intensified, not only because a young family should lose its father, but also because I dreaded leaving my chemical research work, which meant so much to me, unfinished in the midst of fruitful, promising development. Another reflection took shape, an idea full of bitter irony: if I was now forced to leave this world prematurely, it was because of this Iysergic acid diethylamide that I myself had brought forth into the world.

By the time the doctor arrived, the climax of my despondent condition had already passed. My laboratory assistant informed him about my selfexperiment, as I myself was not yet able to formulate a coherent sentence. He shook his head in perplexity, after my attempts to describe the mortal danger that threatened my body. He could detect no abnormal symptoms other than extremely dilated pupils. Pulse, blood pressure, breathing were all normal. He saw no reason to prescribe any medication. Instead he conveyed me to my bed and stood watch over me. Slowly I came back from a weird, unfamiliar world to reassuring everyday reality. The horror softened and gave way to a feeling of good fortune and gratitude, the more normal perceptions and thoughts returned, and I became more confident that the danger of insanity was conclusively past.

Now, little by little I could begin to enjoy the unprecedented colors and plays of shapes that persisted behind my closed eyes. Kaleidoscopic, fantastic images surged in on me, alternating, variegated, opening and then closing themselves in circles and spirals, exploding in colored fountains, rearranging and hybridizing themselves in constant flux. It was particularly remarkable how every acoustic perception, such as the sound of a door handle or a passing automobile, became transformed into optical perceptions. Every sound generated a vividly changing image, with its own consistent form and color.

Late in the evening my wife returned from Lucerne. Someone had informed her by telephone that I was suffering a mysterious breakdown. She had returned home at once, leaving the children behind with her parents. By now, I had recovered myself sufficiently to tell her what had happened.

Exhausted, I then slept, to awake next morning refreshed, with a clear head, though still somewhat tired physically. A sensation of well-being and renewed life flowed through me. Breakfast tasted delicious and gave me extraordinary pleasure. When I later walked out into the garden, in which the sun shone now after a spring rain, everything glistened and sparkled in a fresh light. The world was as if newly created. All my senses vibrated in a condition of highest sensitivity, which persisted for the entire day.

This self-experiment showed that LSD-25 behaved as a psychoactive substance with extraordinary properties and potency. There was to my knowledge no other known substance that evoked such profound psychic effects in such extremely low doses, that caused such dramatic changes in human consciousness and our experience of the inner and outer world.

What seemed even more significant was that I could remember the experience of LSD inebriation in every detail. This could only mean that the conscious recording function was not interrupted, even in the climax of the LSD experience, despite the profound breakdown of the normal world view. For the entire duration of the experiment, I had even been aware of participating in an experiment, but despite this recognition of my condition, I could not, with every exertion of my will, shake off the LSD world. Everything was experienced as completely real, as alarming reality; alarming, because the picture of the other, familiar everyday reality was still fully preserved in the memory for comparison.

Another surprising aspect of LSD was its ability to produce such a far-reaching, powerful state of inebriation without leaving a hangover. Quite the contrary, on the day after the LSD experiment I felt myself to be, as already described, in excellent physical and mental condition.

I was aware that LSD, a new active compound with such properties, would have to be of use in pharmacology, in neurology, and especially in psychiatry, and that it would attract the interest of concerned specialists. But at that time I had no inkling that the new substance would also come to be used beyond medical science, as an inebriant in the drug scene. Since my self-experiment had revealed LSD in its terrifying, demonic aspect, the last thing I could have expected was that this substance could ever find application as anything approaching a pleasure drug. I failed, moreover, to recognize the meaningful connection between LSD inebriation and spontaneous visionary experience until much later, after further experiments, which were carried out with far lower doses and under different conditions.

The next day I wrote to Professor Stoll the abovementioned report about my extraordinary experience with LSD-25 and sent a copy to the director of the pharmacological department, Professor Rothlin.

As expected, the first reaction was incredulous astonishment. Instantly a telephone call came from the management; Professor Stoll asked: "Are you certain you made no mistake in the weighing? Is the stated dose really correct?" Professor Rothlin also called, asking the same question. I was certain of this point, for I had executed the weighing and dosage with my own hands. Yet their doubts were justified to some extent, for until then no known substance had displayed even the slightest psychic effect in fractionof-a-milligram doses. An active compound of such potency seemed almost unbelievable.

Professor Rothlin himself and two of his colleagues were the first to repeat my experiment, with only onethird of the dose I had utilized. But even at that level, the effects were still extremely impressive, and quite fantastic. All doubts about the statements in my report were eliminated.

It wasn't mutual.

Isn't it baffling how your feelings can go one extreme to another just within a few days? I tricked myself into thinking something was genuinely romantic and everlasting because I wanted it so badly...I'm a fool and just hurt myself as the end.
I'm not cutt out for this job.

Nikki and I went to this cemetery on Bardstown Road thee other day and had a blast taking beelions of pictures. We were so mopey but that cemetery did something to us...made an positive impact on our mood (funny..isnt it?) But, yeah...we had a great time being creative and goofy. I'm happy to have her in my life, I am truly fortunate to have a good friend like her (and Anthony for that matter..someone I need to bring up a whole lot more)..I need it more than anything. Anyways, here are the results of the awesome time! (plus a few others I want to share..)
