wrote: "Obama Will Win: Why and How His Critics from
the Left and Right Will be Proven Wrong"
http://www.bradblog.com/?p=7595
Whereupon he quotes Andrew Sullivan's reply article, 'Meep Meep'
http://andrewsullivan.theatlantic.com/the_daily_dish/2009/12/meep-meep.html#more
My own view is that 2009 has been an
extraordinarily successful year for Obama.
Since this is currently a minority view
and will prompt a chorus of "In The Tank!",
allow me to explain.
The substantive record is clear enough.
Torture is ended, if Gitmo remains
enormously difficult to close and
rendition extremely hard to police.
The unitary executive, claiming vast,
dictatorial powers over American citizens,
has been unwound. The legal inquiries that
may well convict former Bush officials for
war crimes are underway, and the trial of
KSM will reveal the lawless sadism of the
Cheney regime that did so much to sabotage
our war on Jihadism. Military force
against al Qaeda in Pakistan has been
ratcheted up considerably, even at a
civilian cost that remains morally
troubling. The US has given notice that
it intends to leave Afghanistan with a
bang - a big surge, a shift in tactics,
and a heavy batch of new troops.
Iraq remains dodgy in the extreme, but at
least March elections have been finally
nailed down.
Domestically, the new president has
rescued the banks in a bail-out that
has come in at $200 billion under budget;
the economy has shifted from a tailspin
to stablilization and some prospect of
job growth next year; the Dow is at
10,500 a level no one would have predicted
this time last year. A stimulus package
has helped undergird infrastructure and
probably did more to advance non-carbon
energy than anything that might have
emerged from Copenhagen. Universal health
insurance (with promised deficit reduction!)
is imminent - a goal sought by Democrats
(and Nixon) for decades, impossible under
the centrist Clinton, but won finally by a
black liberal president. More progress has
been made in unraveling the war on drugs
this past year than in living memory.
The transformation of California into a
state where pot is now more available than
in Amsterdam is as remarkable as the fact
that such new sanity has spread across the
country and is at historic highs, so to
speak, in the opinion polls. On civil rights,
civil marriage came to the nation's capital
city, which has a 60 percent black population.
If that doesn't help reverse some of the
gloom from Prop 8 and Maine, what would?
And, yes, the unspeakable ban on HIV-positive
foreigners was finally lifted, bringing the
US back to the center of the global effort
to fight AIDS as it should be.
Relations with Russia have improved immensely
and may yield real gains in non-proliferation;
Netanyahu has moved, however insincerely,
toward a two-state solution; Iran's coup
regime remains far more vulnerable than a
year ago, paralyzed in its diplomacy,
terrified of its own people and constantly
shaken by the ongoing revolution; Pakistan
launched a major offensive against al Qaeda
and the Taliban in its border area; global
opinion of the US has been transformed;
the Cairo speech and the Nobel acceptance
speech helped explain exactly what Obama's
blend of ruthless realism for
conflict-management truly means.
The Beltway cannot handle all this.
And that's why they continue to jump
on every micro-talking-point and forget
vast forests for a few failing saplings.
But when you consider the magnitude of
shifting from one conservative era to one
in which government simply has to be deployed
to tackle deep structural problems, the
achievement is as significant as his
election year.
I remain, in other words, extremely bullish
on the guy. There is a huge amount to come -
finding a way to bring down long-term debt,
ensuring health insurance reform stays on
track and reformed constantly to control costs,
turning the corner on non-carbon energy,
reforming entitlements, finding a new revenue
stream like a VAT, preventing Israel from
attacking Iran, preventing Iran's coup
regime from going even roguer, withdrawing from
an Iraq still teetering on new sectarian
conflict, avoiding a second downturn, closing
Gitmo for good, ending the gay ban in the
military ... well, you get the picture.
Change of this magnitude is extremely hard.
That it is also frustrating, inadequate,
compromised, flawed, and beset with bribes
and trade-offs does not, in my mind,
undermine it. Obama told us it would be
like this - and it is. And those who backed
him last year would do better, to my mind,
if they appreciated the difficulty of this
task and the diligence and civility that
Obama has displayed in executing it.
Yes, we have. And yes, we still are the
ones we've been waiting for - if we still
care enough to swallow purism and pride
and show up for the less emotionally
satisfying grind of real, practical,
incremental reform. -- Andrew Sullivan

pick up a pen she has nervously dropped on the

And so it goes ... She not only becomes

re-directs the Organization into Genetic

master stroke to combat the rapidly escalating
fraction of the Male Population Worldwide now
become Azoidiotic from too much Coke (both

Soon her multiple sons and daughters, eminently
successful from their combos of High Q and Macho

the Elite, flooding their fateful recessive Grey

Gene Pool, until Kingdom Come Down, as plentiful
multi-loci homozygoids manifest, exceed all IQ

them, to reach tippling point take charge control

How Terahertz Waves Tear Apart DNA
A new model of the way the THz waves interact with
DNA explains how the damage is done and why evidence
has been so hard to gather.
Great things are expected of terahertz waves, the
radiation that fills the slot in the electromagnetic
spectrum between microwaves and the infrared.
Terahertz waves pass through non-conducting materials
such as clothes , paper, wood and brick and so cameras
sensitive to them can peer inside envelopes, into
living rooms and "frisk" people at distance.
The way terahertz waves are absorbed and emitted
can also be used to determine the chemical
composition of a material. And even though they
don't travel far inside the body, there is great
hope that the waves can be used to spot tumours
near the surface of the skin.
With all that potential, it's no wonder that
research on terahertz waves has exploded in
the last ten years or so.
But what of the health effects of terahertz waves?
At first glance, it's easy to dismiss any notion
that they can be damaging. Terahertz photons
are not energetic enough to break chemical bonds
or ionise atoms or molecules, the chief reasons
why higher energy photons such as x-rays and UV
rays are so bad for us. But could there be another
mechanism at work?
The evidence that terahertz radiation damages
biological systems is mixed. "Some studies
reported significant genetic damage while others,
although similar, showed none," say Boian Alexandrov
at the Center for Nonlinear Studies at Los Alamos
National Laboratory in New Mexico and a few buddies.
Now these guys think they know why.
Alexandrov and co have created a model to investigate
how THz fields interact with double-stranded DNA and
what they've found is remarkable. They say that
although the forces generated are tiny, resonant
effects allow THz waves to unzip double-stranded DNA,
creating bubbles in the double strand that could
significantly interfere with processes such as
gene expression and DNA replication.
That's a jaw dropping conclusion.
And it also explains why the evidence has been
so hard to garner. Ordinary resonant effects are
not powerful enough to do do this kind of damage
but nonlinear resonances can. These nonlinear
instabilities are much less likely to form which
explains why the character of THz genotoxic effects
are probabilistic rather than deterministic,
say the team.
This should set the cat among the pigeons.
Of course, terahertz waves are a natural
part of environment, just like visible and
infrared light. But a new generation of cameras
are set to appear that not only record terahertz
waves but also bombard us with them. And if our
exposure is set to increase, the question that
urgently needs answering is what level of
terahertz exposure is safe.

Surface effects in THz wave emission from
intrinsic Josephson junctions
YOSHIHIKO NONOMURA, Computational Materials Science
Center, National Institute for Materials Science,
Tsukuba, Ibaraki 305-0047, Japan --
Recently THz wave emission from intrinsic Josephson
junctions without external fields [1] was observed
experimentally. As possible states to characterize
this emission, the McCumber-like state with little
spatial dependence of electric fields (for the
surface impedance Z = 1) [2] and novel phase-kink
state (for large and complex Z) [3] have been
proposed. In the present study [4] it is numerically
shown that both states are stationary and that the
dynamical phase transition between these two states
occurs as Z is varied. The McCumber-like state is
stable for low current and small Z. For higher
current, the phase-kink state accompanied with
symmetry breaking along the c axis is stable even
for Z = 1, though strong emission in the vicinity
of cavity resonance points only takes place for
larger Z. Value of Z is optimized for the strongest
emission, and effect of surface roughness will also
be discussed. [1] L. OZyuzer et al., Science 318,

How Terahertz Waves Influence DNA
The radiation holds great promise for science
By Tudor Vieru, Science Editor
31st of October 2009, 01:45 GMT
http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-Terahertz-Waves-Influence-DNA-125734.shtml
Terahertz radiation occupies the wavelengths that
connect microwaves to infrared and is currently
considered to be one of the most promising areas
of research out there. Over the past decade, more
and more researchers have dedicated their work to
this form of radiation, which has the amazing
ability of penetrating through just about everything,
including inanimate objects such as glass, paper,
cloth, walls and other such things. It can also be
used to "frisk" a human body from a distance, and
to peer inside rooms, which makes it a potent
monitoring tool.
However, on the downside, the negative effects
that terahertz wavelengths may have on the human
body are not entirely known. Evidence of how they
influence DNA is flimsy at best, and a clear
conclusion has yet to be drawn from available
research. Those who argue that the radiation is
not harmful say that the photons making it up are
not energetic enough to break chemical bonds or
ionize atoms and molecules, Technology Review reports.
http://www.technologyreview.com/blog/arxiv/24331/
"Some studies reported significant genetic damage
while others, although similar, showed none,"
Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) Center for
Nonlinear Studies expert Boian Alexandrov, the
leader of a research team looking into the effects
of terahertz radiation, says. The team adds that
the energy in these photons is not nearly as high
as the ones in X-rays and ultraviolet light, which
are perfectly capable of damaging our bodies over
prolonged exposures. UV rays are known to trigger
skin cancer.
The LANL team recently made a chilling discovery,
when it found out that THZ radiation had the
ability to essentially "unzip" double-stranded DNA,
a feat that has massive implications, including
the disruption of such processes as gene expression
and DNA replication. Both of these are essential
to life as we know it. The team argues that the
radiation accomplishes its effects by means of
tiny, resonant ones that it instills in the
DNA molecules. While normal resonance is unable
to cause "unzipping," nonlinear resonances, of
the type terahertz radiation creates, can.

Group slams Chertoff on scanner promotion
January 2, 2010
WASHINGTON - Since the attempted bombing of a
US airliner on Christmas Day, former Homeland
Security secretary Michael Chertoff has given
dozens of media interviews touting the need
for the federal government to buy more
full-body scanners for airports.
What he has made little mention of is that
the Chertoff Group, his security consulting
agency, includes a client that manufactures
the machines. Chertoff disclosed the
relationship on a CNN program Wednesday,
in response to a question.
An airport passengers' rights group on Thursday
criticized Chertoff's use of his former government
credentials to advocate for a product that
benefits his clients.
"Mr. Chertoff should not be allowed to abuse the
trust the public has placed in him as a former
public servant to privately gain from the sale of
full-body scanners under the pretense that the
scanners would have detected this particular type
of explosive," said Kate Hanni, founder of
FlyersRights.org, which opposes the use of
the scanners.
Chertoff's advocacy for the technology dates to
his time in the Bush administration. In 2005,
Homeland Security ordered the government's first
batch of the scanners - five from California-based
Rapiscan Systems. Rapiscan is one of only two
companies that make full-body scanners in accordance
with current contract specifications required by
the federal government.
Currently 40 body scanners are in use among
19 US airports. The number is expected to
skyrocket, at least in part because of the
Christmas Day incident. The Transportation
Security Administration has said it will order
300 more machines.
In the summer, TSA purchased 150 more machines from
Rapiscan with $25 million in American Recovery and
Reinvestment Act funds. Rapiscan was the only company
that qualified for the contract because it had
developed technology that performs the screening
using a less-graphic body imaging system, which is
also less controversial. (Since then, another company,
L-3 Communications, has qualified for future contracts,
but no new contracts have been awarded.) -- Washington Post

[Ken] Wilber's four-quadrant system reflects a pattern
familiar to cultures across the globe; the famous
psychoanalytical pioneer Carl Jung discovered that
maps depicting a four-part reality have been drawn
as mandalas all over the world. The similarities
between these various four-part depictions of
reality are quite astounding, and all seem to
reiterate the idea that the universe is a unity
comprised of four fundamental components.

"Alone of the Valar do I exist apart from him,
hence can do so. And so I tell you this:
He is not cruel, any more than he is benevolent.
He is a force of indifference and hazard in this
universe, and what appears here upon Arda is the
result of that and no more. That is the truth
and the curse of this world: that it is bereft
of purpose. It is merely here, and it continues
as its patterns, and accident, and the force of
contesting wills press it. Finally, as all
energy upon it is drawn inexorably out into the
cosmos from whence it was fashioned, it will
grow cold, and go out." --Melkor [Pg 25],

"... People often react very negatively to the idea

binary in nature. It rarely occurs to them that this
is just the reaction one would expect if the soul
was bifurcated. To be dual, after all, is to be
duplicitous and double-dealing. To have two parts to
the self makes it possible for one hand not to know
what the other is doing. It paves the way for
violated integrity, unintentional falsehood,
self-betrayal, and self-deception.
"Plus, it just seems odd. Why do we have two souls?
"Perhaps the answer is as simple as this : because
that's the way everything is made -- with two parts,
two equal-but-opposite complimentary components..."

three "I's" ---three different levels of who you are,
planes on which you have an identity.
Number One is what I call ego, that's the "I" we all
know very well, the plane of the body, mind, and
personality; of all those things we think we are.
Number Two I call the soul; the soul measures time not
in days and years but in incarnations, and it's the "I"
that was around before we as egos were born and that
will be around after we as egos die.
And Number Three is ... just Number Three. We all have
different names for it, and wars are fought over what
to call it, so I avoid all that by just calling it
Number Three.
I see our task as learning to live on more than one of
those planes simultaneously, experiencing ourselves as
egos and souls at the same time. And since "you gotta
be one to see one," once we are resting in our souls,
then we will see others as souls as well. Then when we
look into another person's we'll say, "Are you in there?
I'm in here. Far out!"
When we are able to look behind even that identity as
soul, we'll see that we have still another identity
because we are also Number Three.
That's the mystic "I," because in Number Three there's
actually only one of us. Your Number Three isn't merely
like my Number Three---They're the same thing.

NOTHING is True, Everything is Permitted: A Deconstruction
of the Last Words of Hassan-i Sabbah
by Brian D. Hodges
According to legend, the master of the Order of Assassins
uttered the famous phrase "nothing is true, everything is
permitted" on his deathbed prior to his soul departing for
Hell. This axiom has made its way into a number of historical
accounts regarding Sabbah and the Nizari Isma'ilis. As with
so much of the lore surrounding the "order", it is likely that
this quote is no more true than most of the other legends
circulated by Western historians, medievalists, anarchists
and occultists. It is worth looking into three competing
explanations for how it found acceptance and examine the
probabilities of each. ... Cont...

... Some need first to understand the ancient dictum
"discipline precedes freedom" before they will be able to
dance with the last words of Hassan-i Sabbah.

one of us being here is so small that
you'd think the mere fact of existing
would keep us all in a contented
dazzlement of surprise."

Bruce Damer on 'A Universal Mind State:'
"The number of distinct pathways inside
your brain outnumber the number of particles
in the universe. So we might speculate that
perhaps the human mind is capable of containing
a simulacrum of the entire universe.
How might a vision of the whole cosmos manifest
itself inside the human mind? Do altered states
of consciousness give us a glimpse of a
fantastic universe that lurks just beyond our
myopic daily view of reality? What did the
mystics say?
What have you experienced? Perhaps humanity
is beginning to sense that the universe evolved
our world and our minds to create a camera on
itself. Does this sense give our individual and
shared existence new meaning?"

Brain researcher Antonio Damasio has
brought forth the understanding that the
brain operates at two speeds: cognitive
(very fast processor) and emotional (slower
to record, slower to retrieve). One result
of his research is that modern life driven
by constant cognitive stimuli (phone, e-mail,
texting, and other interrupts) creates a
"wired" state of hyper-driven cognition but
over time separates a person from the slower
wave emotional states. Eventually, Damasio
has shown, people become "emotionally neutral"
and gradually lose access to both the tools
of healthy social interaction and their
intuitive and even artistic senses. One might
ask if we inhabitants of an increasingly
cognitively-driven world are actually part of
a giant unplanned experiment: the unintended
mass-scale rewiring of our cognitive processes
and emotional lives. Where do psychedelics fit
in this gradually emerging brave new mental
world? Can they help to "reboot" a person back
to a state of more balance within the
two-speed brain?

"... The only difference was that I did not
believe in my experiences, while the
'Akashic records' were believed and are
believed by both their authors and readers.
"It very soon became evident to me that
neither in these nor in the other experiences
was there anything real. It was all reflected,
it all came from the memory, from the imagination.
The voices immediately became silent as soon as
I passed to something familiar and concrete
which could be verified.
"This explained to me why it is that authors
who describe Atlantis are unable with the aid
of their 'clairvoyance' to solve any practical
problems relating to the present which are
always so easy to find, but which for some
reason they always avoid touching on. Why do
they know everything that happened thirty
thousand years ago and not know what is
happening at the time of their experiments
but in another room?"

"I remember once sitting on a sofa smoking
and looking at an ash-tray. It was an ordinary
copper ash-tray. Suddenly I felt that I was
beginning to understand what the ash-tray was,
and at the same time, with a certain wonder
and almost with fear, I felt that I had never
understood it before and that we do not
understand the simplest things around us.
"The ash-tray roused a whirlwind of
thoughts and images. It contained such an
infinite number of facts, of events; it
was linked with such an immense number of
things. First of all, with everything
connected with smoking and tobacco. That at
once roused thousands of images, pictures,
memories. Then the ash-tray itself. How had
it come into being? All the materials of
which it could have been made? Copper, in this
case -- what was copper? How had people
discovered it for the first time? How had they
learned to make use of it? How and where was
the copper obtained from which this ash-tray
was made? Through what kind of treatment had
it passed, how had it been transported from
place to place, how many people had worked on
it or in connection with it? How had the copper
been transformed into an ash-tray? These and
other questions about the history of the
ash-tray up to the day when it had appeared
on my table.
"I remember writing a few words on a piece
of paper in order to retain something of these
thoughts on the following day.
And next day read:
'A man can go mad from one ash-tray.'
"The meaning of all that I felt was that
in one ash-tray it was possible to know all.
By invisible threads the ash-tray was connected
with everything in the world, not only with the
present, but with all the past and with all
the future. To know an ash-tray meant to
know all."

"Walking the spiritual path properly is a very subtle process;
it is not something to jump into naively. There are numerous
sidetracks which lead to a distorted, ego-centered version of
spirituality; we can deceive ourselves into thinking we are
developing spiritually when instead we are strengthing our
egocentricity through spiritual techniques. This fundamental
distortion may be referred to as spiritual materialism."
--Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche (1939-1987)
Author of: "Cutting Through Spiritual Materialism"
"Jeffery Paine's chapter on Chogyam Trungpa, founder of
the first two Tibetan Buddhist Centers in the West, as
well as the first Buddhist university in the United
States -- the Naropa Institute in Boulder, CO -- performs
a much-needed service. By most accounts a great and
dynamic teacher, Trungpa was also an alcoholic whose more
outrageous actions confused and hurt some of his disciples.
Paine's balanced portrait, chronicling both Trungpa's
excesses and his achievements, offers a model of
transparency." http://www.khandro.net/buddhism_West.htm
"Historically the chief role in the formation of
Christianity was played not by the teaching of
Christ but by the teaching of Paul.
Church Christianity from the very beginning
contradicted in many respects the ideas of Christ
himself. Later, the divergence became still wider.
It is by no means a new idea that Christ, if born
on earth later, not only could not be the head of
the Christian Church, but probably would not be
able even to belong to it, and in the most brilliant
periods of the might and power of the Church
would most certainly have been declared a heretic
and burned at the stake." -- Peter D. Ouspensky

"Bardo Thodol, 'The Tibetan Book of the Dead,' is a guide for
the dead and dying. The first part, called Chikhai Bardo,
describes the moment of death. The second part, Chonyid
Bardo, deals with the states which supervene immediately
after death. The third part, Sidpa Bardo, concerns the onset
of the birth instinct and of prenatal events..."

"...The post-mortem Bardo journey lasts seven weeks (49 days),
divided into three stages. The first period (Chikhai Bardo) is
that of complete transcendence--beyond words, beyond
space-time, beyond self. There are no visions, no sense of
self, no thoughts. The second (lengthy) period (Chonyid Bardo)
involves self in the form of hallucinations (karmic apparitions).
The final period (Sidpa Bardo) involves the return to earthly
existence. For most people, the second stage is the longest.
For the initiated the first stage of illumination lasts longer.
By the end of the forty-ninth day the deceased either enters
Nirvana or is reborn into a worldly state influenced by his/her
past actions; i.e., karma. The Bardo state is recognized as an
opportunity for change, a starting point of transformation..."
