I want to start this page with a article of the type or form of, which is so Common " how to meditate ";
Monkey Mind: Should You Be Striving to Have No Thoughts in Meditation?
When great mystics implore us to be free from thought, to transcend the endless chattering of what Buddhists call the "monkey mind," they don't necessarily mean that we need to stop the stream of thought altogether. In fact, trying to bring the rushing thought-stream to a halt is a lot like trying to stop any other rushing stream with an incredibly strong momentum behind it. It isn't easy. And when it comes to actively stopping the flow of your own mind, the attempt generally backfires, leading to aggravation, internal tension, and even more thinking.
It's true that some advanced mystics, like Power of Now author Eckhart Tolle, say they experience states of completely thought-free bliss sometimes lasting up to three or four hours at a time. But unless you're living in a Himalayan cave (or, like Tolle, spending years sitting quietly on a park bench), the movement of your mind probably isn't going to come to a full and complete stop anytime soon.
So what's a poor meditator to do?
Well, luckily for us we don't have to stop the monkey mind to experience freedom from it. We just have to learn how to ignore it.
One of the best places to start is by learning how to meditate by focusing on your breathing. When you are doing nothing but sitting still and counting each breath you take, you will develop the capacity, over time, to exclude other thoughts from your mind so you don't get distracted. That means you have to ignore other thoughts that aren't related to counting each breath.
Eventually, your ability to focus and pay attention will become so refined that you'll be able to maintain an awareness of your breathing even when your thoughts seem to be rolling over the plains of your mind like a tornado. And sooner or later, you'll come to realize that no matter how active and noisy your mind is, there's a part of you that is forever untouched by it–a silent Witness that is inherently still, awake, effortless, blissful, and free.
My point is ,
concerning "how to meditate" in above statement, When Drawing,for example my posing, a dancer dancing,a sculptor sculpting, a potter, a weaver,setting still in the woods and simply observing with no purpose of being there but to be aware of the woods.
I truly do not believe One can become a very Spiritual being, unless they can clearly explain "How and the many ways Meditation can and does occur, Like reading a great Novel, sure there are deeper forms of "freedom of thought",
For example ; I life drawing class if I am posing instead of sketching, I think about the pose I want to present, once I get into position, I transcend into a meditative state, if the pose is a painful pose and lengthy, I soon am regretting it,if I can't get to that meditative state, as it can become almost un-bearable, yet if I can transcend,to a high meditative state, it I am very aware of simply the place I am in, almost a sleep state, yet very aware. Like Eckhart Tolle states above ; "states of completely thought-free bliss sometimes lasting up to three or four hours at a time.", After pose is complete, I retain that awareness/ feeling of great refreshment / great to be alive feeling , for sometime after.
Another Point that needs addressed
Why have Religions such as Christianity been teaching the importance of Meditation,if it the duty of a Religion to guide it's followers to Spiritually ?.
Where Nature can easily show how to be without judgement, if one Submits to it's Invitation;
for example ; Imagine as you enter into the Woods ,a voice of sorts reminds you ;
" A unknown World you now enter into, though from your past maybe that tree someone named it "Oak", maybe the one next to it a "Hickory", these are just words, not truths , they are simply different defined forms of. If you see the "Owl" just a different form, of Nature, Only way to know them is to know your One with them, Imagine them seeing You, judging you.wondering about you, this help take away the thought of judging, by seeing one's self reflected by the " Woods",remember the Woods is All as One, A tree is only a part of the Woods,
When One enters the Woods,one can be apart of the Woods, or Not. If "Not", one will never truly see the Woods. - me

Did Kerry Washington Just Reveal When 'Scandal' Will End?
Gladiators, I hope you're sitting down, because Kerry Washington opened up about when she'll say goodbye to Olivia Pope for good.
Kerry Washington, 40, looks stunning as she rocks a colorful Valentino dress and her natural curls on the cover of Glamour magazine's May 2017 issue, which marked her first cover since giving birth to her second child. Inside, she opened up about the important conversation of race and how the Scandal writers have incorporated the dialogue into the show, and even discussed the inevitable series finale.
'Scandal' Season 6 Photos
Although Kerry loves playing Olivia, she admitted that she's excited for the post-Olivia-Pope chapter of her life — but the end of the show isn't up to her, it's up to Scandal creator, Shonda Rhimes. "It's not really up to me. It's up to Shonda [Rhimes, Scandal's creator] and to the network. Shonda has said from the beginning that she kind of knows how it ends. So I'm trusting her to guide the arc. It's also important for me to do other work—and playing Olivia gave me the opportunity to become a producer. The charge of my production company, Simpson Street, is to tell stories that are about people, places, and situations that may not always be considered by the mainstream. Inclusivity is not about, you know, creating a world where straight white men have no voice; it's about creating a world where we all have a voice. So I'm excited to start that new journey, as a producer," she said.
The star also discussed how important it is for Scandal to address race. "In the first season it was as if Olivia Pope was raceless. There was no denying that Olivia was a black woman, because I'm a black woman, playing her in badass white trench coats that call to attention the fact that I'm not looking like anybody else on television. But we didn't talk about her identity as a black person. [Since then] the writers have become more and more willing to deal with race," she said.
Since the first season of the hit ABC series the storyline surrounding Olivia has definitely evolved. "When Olivia was kidnapped, it was not lost on me that the fictional president of the United States was willing to go to war to save one black woman at a time when hundreds of black women were missing in Nigeria and we were begging the world to pay attention. Shonda was saying, 'The life of a black woman matters.' With her dad—he is trying to instill in her this generational learning about what it means to be a person of color in the United States. And Olivia is at odds with balancing the truth of his understanding with her ability to achieve things he was never able to," Kerry said.
For more from Kerry, be sure to scoop up the latest issue of the magazine.

"Latin Rhythms" coming to Fairfield University
Faculty, staff, and students are invited to "Latin Rhythms from Mambo to Hip Hop," the next installment of "America's Music: A Film History of Our Popular Music from Blues to Bluegrass to Broadway," a series of documentary screenings and faculty-led discussions on 20 th -century American popular music. Led by Dr. Laura Nash, professor of music, this free event will take place on Monday, November 18 at 7:30 p.m. in the DiMenna-Nyselius Library Multimedia Room.
The University's DiMenna-Nyselius Library is one of just 50 venues nationwide selected to participate in the series.
Designed for a general audience, "America's Music" introduces genres of American popular music that are deeply connected to the history, culture, and geography of the United States. Older and younger Americans alike will have the chance to recognize how the cultural landscape that they take for granted today has been influenced by the development of the popular musical forms discussed in this series.
"America's Music" is a project by the Tribeca Film Institute in collaboration with the American Library Association, Tribeca Flashpoint, and the Society for American Music. It is made possible by a major grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities: Exploring the Human Endeavor. The Fairfield Public Library and the Humanities Institute of the College of Arts and Sciences also supported this project.
"We are delighted to have been selected to host this series!" said Dr. Nash. "American music in the 20th century highlighted and contributed to many changes in American society. These social changes, as well as changes in technology, transportation, and economics, created a mass market for popular music. We will examine these genres in the context of key social and historical developments, with events in American music history acting as a catalyst for that examination."
Each hour-long session focuses on a uniquely American genre, including Broadway, jazz, bluegrass and country, rock 'n' roll, and hip hop. The last three installments are:
- Monday, November 25, 7:30 p.m. – Country and Bluegrass with Dr. Nash.
- Monday, December 2, 7:30 p.m. – Swing Jazz with Brian Torff, director of the Music Program.
- Monday, December 9, 7:30 p.m. – Rock, also with Brian Torff.
For more information, contact University Librarian Joan Overfield at email@example.com or Dr. Nash at email@example.com.

Difference Between For and To
'For' and 'To' prepositions are used in the English language with a difference. An author should be careful in the use of two prepositions.
To is a preposition that is used with a word in the fourth case known as the dative case. There are seven different cases in the English grammar and they are the nominative case, Instrumental case, Ablative case, the dative case, Genitive case, possessive case and Accusative case. All these cases are used differently with different prepositions to convey ideas to the reader or listener.
It is important to know that 'to' is used in the dative case. The preposition 'for' is also used in dative case, but little differently. See at the use of 'to' in the examples:
1. He gave a book to his classmate.
2. Francis has traveled to London from Paris.
In the first sentence you can see that a book is given by someone to his classmate and the second sentence you can see that Francis has moved from one place to another. In both sentences 'to' is used to express 'movement'. In other words, it indicates a movement of a person or thing from one place to another or from one person to another. In the first example a thin is moving from one person to other while in the second, a person is moving from one place to other.
On the other hand the preposition 'for' indicates the significance of a person or object for which an action was made as in the sentence 'I bought a book for my father' and 'He made each thing for his older brother '. You can understand the importance attached to two people, 'the father' as 'elder brother' in both sentences, respectively.

This is one of those books I have used over and over for various reasons, most of which are just went I needed a few hopeful words or a reminder when I have strayed off path a little. I sincerely love this book.
Do I think if you repeat the prayers over and over magical things will happen? Not sure, really.

When the prayers don't seem to be working, it is usually because I myself, have yet to let go of the belief that is rooted. If you are expecting miracles through these prayers, yet refusing to change those deep-rooted beliefs, I don't know that success can be guaranteed Give them a go.

Concerns like structural stability? When you throw up something this big in that short amount of time it makes me worry.
The ground breaking for the planned (alleged?) construction of "Sky City" in China was this past Saturday. Among the most fantastical claims of the building are that it will be the tallest in the world at 2,749ft and require a total schedule of only 210 days for completion. This includes only 90 days of onsite assembly.
I'm very much in favor of pushing the boundaries in terms of speed of construction, advancing new materials and assembly techniques and lowering the cost of overall building construction. The days of concrete and steel giants like One World Trade Center in New York or Burj Khalifa in Dubai are fast running out and buildings like Sky City will be the future. The functionality of the building progressive also with as many as 4000 families to live in the within the "city" as well as schools, medical centers and shopping malls.
Many may have concerns and reservations but then so too did horse-riders when the first car passed them on the road.
Concerns like structural stability? When you throw up something this big in that short amount of time it makes me worry.
Just how crazy is Chinas plan to build the worlds tallest building in nine months?
Construction on Sky City officially kicked off last weekend in Changsha, capital of Hunan province. Broad Group, which is building Sky City, is shooting for an April 2014 completion. By May or June, the 30,000 people it plans to accommodate (pdf) can start moving in. That also means that in the time it takes to gestate a human baby, Broad will finish a structure that hits 2,750 ft (838 meters)ten meters higher than Dubais Burj Khalifa, the worlds current tallest building.Broad seems confident it can pull this off. We are the pioneers, the pioneers of men, sings a chorus in hardhats on Broads website. We are the geniuses, the geniuses of technology.
Not everyone is so sure. Its not clear that Broad Group can afford its $1.47 billion price tag, say Chinese critics, and constructing in such haste compromises safety. On top of that, theres no actual need for Sky City.

After losing mobile gaming to iOS and Android, Facebook is making a big push into playing on PC with today's developer launch of its Gameroom Windows desktop gaming platform. After months of name changes, beta tests and dev solicitation, Facebook opened up the beta build for all developers and officially named it Gameroom....Gameroom let users play web, ported mobile and native Gameroom games in a dedicated PC app free from the distractions of the News Feed.
It is definitely super interesting to see Facebook go after the gaming community after its successes with developers like Zynga. Steam has a loyal following and as a company Valve has created a great atmosphere and community for gamers. There is a lot of money to be made if Facebook can capture a piece of the gaming market and in the end it just makes the entire FB platform more valuable. For example you could adapt Messenger/Whatsapp to be used for in game chats, etc.

June 2014: As customer habits and preferences within the consumer electronics industry change it is important that manufacturers keep in-step accordingly, creating new products that facilitate these changes. For this reason Nordost has recently revisited their analog interconnects for portable devices. At last month's High End Show in Munich Nordost launched two versions of the new iKable, the LS Blue Heaven iKable and the Heimdall 2 iKable.
At their core both the LS Blue Heaven and Heimdall 2 iKables are constructed from 4 silver plated, solid-core 24 AWG OFC conductors and employs Nordost's innovative precision FEP extrusion technology. This process greatly reduces the dielectric properties in the cables in order to increase signal speed and accuracy in signal transfer. This on its own makes a significant improvement upon the standard interconnects used with portable audio devices.
However, the Heimdall 2 version takes it a step forward. The Heimdall 2 iKable uses Nordost's proprietary Dual Mono-Filament technology, suspending the conductors in a virtual air-dielectric which decreases the resistance and signal loss even further than what is possible with the Blue Heaven. Additionally, the Heimdall 2 iKable utilizes mechanically tuned lengths which are proven to reduce internal microphony and high frequency impedance resonance.
Both the LS Blue Heaven and the Heimdall 2 iKables are fitted with gold plated, full metal jacket shell connectors which are available in the following terminations: 3.5mm stereo mini to 3.5mm stereo mini, 3.5mm stereo mini to 2x XLR and 3.5mm stereo mini to 2x RCA. Nordost iKables are made specifically for auxiliary inputs in aftermarket radios, car and home audio stereos and are compatible with all portable audio devices. Suggested retail for a 1m length iKable is $214.99 for the LS Blue Heaven iKable and $460.00 for the Heimdall 2 iKable. Both products are now available for purchase at select Nordost dealers, worldwide. To find the Nordost dealer nearest you, visit the "Where to Buy" page at www.nordost.com.
Nordost iKables are the perfect solution for today's modern hifi enthusiasts. Whether applied in your car or home audio system, the elevated performance achieved from your portable devices will be amazing.

České Budějovice town tour - Black Tower
Heading around the corner formed by the Česká spořitelna building, we find ourselves near the most dominant feature and the symbol of České Budějovice, the Black Tower. Mineme-li nároží, tvořené budovou spořitelny, ocitneme se v blízkosti největší dominanty a zároveň symbolu Českých Budějovic, Černé věže.
Black Tower
Just a few steps from the Church of St. Nicholas is the Gothic-Renaissance Black Tower. It was built in the near vicinity of the church because it served as its bell tower. Three Italian builders supervised the construction, which was finished in 1577. The tower is 72.3 metres tall and has nine floors. The gallery offers a beautiful view of the historic part of the town as well as its surroundings, including the chateau of Hluboká and the Kleť Mountain on the opposite side.
The tower was built in order to protect the town against enemies and fires. It was originally called the New Tower, the Big Tower, the Parish Tower, or the Town Tower. It was given its new name in the 18th century when there was no major reconstruction and the building was decaying, so people started to call it Black.
A town tower that stands separately is not very common in the Czech Republic. Such a building element is much more common in Italy. Not even Prague has such a tower, despite being called the "city of a hundred spires". It can only be found in Klatovy, Kolín and Hradec Králové.
The Black Tower served as the home to the guard and his family until as late as 1956. One of the guard's responsibilities was to raise a flag facing the place where he noticed a fire having burst out, and to swing the bell. It was certainly not easy to provide food for the guard's household, which was seated above the gallery. The only commodity they probably never ran out of was milk. A goat lived together with the guard's family upstairs.
After climbing 225 steps you will be rewarded with a beautiful view and the friendly smiles of the operators, who have been looking after tourists on the Black Tower for several years in order to make them feel at home. (tel.: +420 386 352 508)
Black Tower - Opening hours
Opening hours: April-June, September-October 10 a.m. - 6 p.m. (closed Mondays), July-August 10 a.m. - 6 p.m. (daily)
You can see the following bells on the Black Tower
bell Bumerin: weight 3 429 kg, date of casting 1406, tone A
bell Budvar: weight 1 100 kg, date of casting 1995, tone F
bell Marta: weight 1 742 kg, date of casting 1723, tone Cis
bell Oktáva: weight 434 kg, date of casting 1723, tone A
bell Maria: weight 163 kg, date of casting 1684, tone E
Interesting technical data about the Black Tower
total height: 72,3 m height up to the gallery: 45,7 m ground plan - a square with: a side of 11.1 m (at foundations) thickest part of the wall: 3,1 m number of stairs: 225 construction: 1549 - 1577 architects (chronological order): Hans Spatz, Lorenz, Vincent Vogarell the clock machine: installed in 1892, fa Ludwig Hainz, Prague
Now we can walk along U Černé věže Street until we reach the northern edge of the old town. On the left there is an interesting combination of large glass surfaces and elements in the Art Nouveau Style on the front of the Leopold Hajíček Department Store. It was built in 1909-1910 and was the first department store in South Bohemia with such a modern concept.

How UV-C Lamps Purify Air and Save Money
This month, we're running a special on UV-C Lamps—both Bryant UV-C Lamps and other brands! We've found that many of our customers aren't aware of the major benefits of using these lamps in your house, so we thought we'd write a quick blog post to explain the most major benefits!
Sterilized Coil Surfaces
We know, we know. This sounds super technical!
While it's hard to think about the tangible benefits of having sterilized coil surfaces in your A/C unit, you should trust that this makes a HUGE difference in your day-to-day health.
Because the coils in your unit are notorious for accumulating mold, dust, and other bio-contaminants. If you're not regularly cleaning your coils, you're likely allowing the germs and allergens from that accumulation to be blown throughout your home. Keeping a UV-C lamp in your system is the easiest and lowest-maintenance way to keep those coils clean!
Maximize Efficiency
While your lungs and your allergies will be thankful that the UV-C lamp is keeping those coils clean, your wallet will thank you for the increased efficiency you'll also see!
It's simple. A clean coil is a highly functioning coil! And a unit that is clean and functioning at its best will always save you money.
It's Simple
Adding one of these lamps to your unit is simple—our experts do it all the time! And, even better, they're affordable! This month, we're offering $25 off when you buy one from us.
So, what's stopping you?
Go ahead and give us a call so that we can bring you a new, affordable UV-C lamp on our next maintenance visit!

Many people often wonder, "Does the HCG diet work without the 500 calorie diet?" There are numerous diet variations circulating today that vary from the original HCG diet plan developed by British physician A.T.W. Simeons in the 1950s. These changes and variations, unfortunately, tend to cause a lot of confusion and diet skepticism. There are really two ways to look at the previous question. First and foremost, will the HCG diet work with another calorie amount other than the 500 calorie? And secondly, does the HCG itself help you lose weight?
Through the years Dr. Simeon's original HCG diet protocol has been changed, revised, etc. to meet the needs of certain individuals and clinics. Understanding the reasoning behind Dr. Simeon's 500- calorie recommendation is of the utmost importance so that maximum results are obtained with minimal hunger and fatigue. Unfortunately, because of the wavering diet calorie amounts and food lists, many HCG diet hopefuls have seen decreased success, if any at all, with the program or perhaps just gave up because they were too hungry, tired, etc. According to Dr. Simeon's, following his protocol exactly is the only way to achieve lasting success on the HCG diet. HCG, also known as human chorionic gonadotropin, is the hormone that multiplies during pregnancy to ensure that a fetus receives proper nourishment if the mother could not provide adequate calories. The HCG present, allows the mother's deep fat stores to be used by the baby. Much in the same way, HCG taken to lose weight, will only be effective if the dieter stays within a calorie depleted state. If the dieter consumes too many calories while taking HCG, there is no need for the body to burn those deep fat stores for energy, and the dieter will not lose weight and could possibly even gain some. Utilizing fat for energy is also called ketosis, which is a natural appetite suppressant. HCG dieters who follow the diet, remain in a state of ketosis and for this reason, do not typically struggle with hunger. The food list given by Dr. Simeons is also a guide to help dieters remain in ketosis and hunger free while optimizing fat loss potential. Adhering fully to Dr. Simeon's original 500 calorie protocol is crucial to see weight loss and fight hunger. Taking HCG alone without following a diet plan is not effective for weight loss, and could result in weight gain. Nu Image Medical provides the most comprehensive HCG diet information while staying true to Dr. Simeon's original protocol, as it is the only HCG diet protocol that has been proven to work.

text: sundownz 8 Report post Posted June 2, 2011 Finally got it done -- something I've wanted to do for quite some time now. Our published X-Max is dead on by both BL and CMS definitions -- we publish 19mm one-way travel. Inductive performance is above average as well. Our published T/S specs are also very well close to the Klippel data -- the one we sent in was just a tad less broken in than the unit published on our site so the Klippel FS was a few Hz higher but as you can tell if you know about the effects of break-in it will settle right in to exactly what we say. Those that don't look at Klippel often may note the BL curve is slightly to one side -- this is not unusual in production tolerance. The shift represents the coil 2mm too far forward. This is within an acceptable production tolerance and as you can see does not interfere with the 19mm of published linear x-max. The CMS curve is also a tad tilted -- this is because a normal surround is always biased in stiffness one direction. Again, very normal behavior without going to an exotic type surround. Little bit of tech talk along with published Klippel data for you guys. Hope you enjoy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And here are some press releases from ABC bragging about Lost: here and here.
I was pretty close. I thought it would be 14 million viewers with a 5.5/12 share.
Good vs Evil: Jacob & "Locke"
It's been a while since I did a Good vs. Evil post, and I've put this one off for a long time. I mostly want to write this now because it seems like everyone is grasping at straws trying to figure out if we've been misled, maybe Jacob isn't as nice as we like to believe. I think it's possible that people have lost some perspective about the issues.
And one disclaimer before I continue. I feel very strongly we can discuss whether someone is good or evil. I know many people dislike it when I debate these things, they wants more vagueness, they don't want their favorite characters pigeon-holed. But I like drawing lines in the sand. I want there to be barriers between good and evil actions. In the end of this show there will be two side, and I don't think they will both be good and both be evil. I'm pretty sure there will be villains and there will be heroes.
And another thing, I have to write this post about Jacob and "Locke"/Smokey because they are undoubtedly on opposite sides, if I write about one of them then it affects the other one.
Poll Results from 605
Usually I watch the polls and silently enjoy watching all of your weird choices. But last week had some very interesting debates so I thought I'd publicize the results. This is also another chance to vote.
I discuss the results below, but the polls are still open and will be open until the mysteries are solved. So things could change.
Who is David's Mother?
The real fight is between Juliet and Sarah for the maternity of David. I still think it's going to be Juliet. Sarah is great, but with such a small amount of episode left I find it hard to believe that we have time left for Sarah. From a logistic point of view it would be pretty crazy if either of these actresses had enough time to play this role. Elizabeth Mitchell is filming the surprisingly not canceled V and Julie Bowen is starring in the surprisingly acclaimed Modern Family (no I haven't watched either yet).
I found that a lot of people are trying to choose a less blond mother for David. Sure the kid has perfectly black hair, but if they got a blond kid then it would have been weird. I don't think the kids coloring is a huge hint.
A friend of mine and a commenter even said that they think the mother might be Ilana. I scoffed a little at that. I think the writers are aware that many people aren't Ilana fans. I wouldn't mind if Ilana was thrust into the main story like that, but it seems unlikely. Besides if we ever had an Ilana episode I don't think it would be about how she was knocked up by Jack. Hopefully she'll have an episode that explains a little bit about her relationship with Jacob.
I'm quite disappointed that three people chose Kate. Come on.
On the other hand I'm grateful to the weirdos who think that Ana Lucia stands a chance.
Who's Coming to the Island?
I don't buy the theory that 108 Wallace was misdirection, or a red herring. Someone is still coming to the Island and I think this episode is supposed to make us excited about who it is.
And I'm definitely leaning more towards Desmond now and not Mr. Widmore. It was a toss-up for me when I was writing the Revlysis, but now I'm willing to say that I think it's Desmond. And it looks like most people agree with me.
I'm disappointed that very few people voted for Walt. I think I may be sitting on a very empty boat still hoping the kid comes back.

605 – Lighthouse
Tags: Aaron, Adam & Eve, Battlestar Galactica, Charlotte, Christian, Claire, David, Desmond, Dogen, Hurley, Jack, Jacob, Jin, Juliet, Kate, Libby, Locke, LOST, Master List, Miles, Mr. Widmore, Sarah, Sayid, Shannon, The Lighthouse, The Others, The Temple, Walt
This might have been one of the only Jack flashbacks/forwards/sideways that I really enjoyed. And I have to hand it to the writers. I'm thoroughly impressed that they managed to make me care about Jack and his relationship with his newly introduced preteen son. If I had heard that Jack was going to have a son and he would have parenthood issues I would have rolled my eyes and wrote this episode off as a loss. But I was surprised at how much I cared.
On the Island Hurley was leading Jack to Jacob's spy-tower. There we saw a very familiar list of names. Jacob told Hurley that someone, number 108 on the list, was coming to the Island and Hurley had to help him get there. No luck in this episode, but I'll bet we'll hear more about that later.
Meanwhile Claire finally did some talking. Yeah, she's crazy. She's also BFFs with "Locke" although she somehow doesn't seem to know his name. Poor Jin is now stuck with Claire and Locke and he knows way too much. He's in survival mode and he's surrounded by murderers. Also his leg is mangled. This guy has been through the wringer over the last two seasons.
This was a good episode. It set up a BSG reminiscent relationship between Hurley and Jacob, it had a surprising and effective reveal of Jack's new son, it ramped up the anticipation about Claire and what the deuce she's going to do, and it started two fun guessing games: who's David's mother and who's coming to the Island (skip down the bottom of the post for my guesses and a couple of polls). Overall a solid episode. 7.5/10.0

Post 602, 602 thoughts and theories
OK. So I've given it a lot of thought and I've gone back and forth with many of you in the comments all the while forming new theories. So here goes nothing.
New Theory About Dying
I'd like to put forth this theory: once characters die in one of the timelines they become aware of the other timeline. This would explain Charlie thinking that he had to die and also Juliet knowing that "it worked". It doesn't really explain what happened to Sayid. I tend to think that possibly he died in the non-Island timelines, but that seems kinda crazy (maybe Arzt killed him in some sort of racially motivated rage, you saw that look he gave him).
Sub theory. I know I already said that this would explain Charlie thinking he had to die, but I might change that. In 2004 he isn't dead. So it'll take a while before he dies and his consciouses merge. The first person to die will be The Marshall, and then Boone soon after. This could be fun if I'm right. (I doubt the redshirts dying will make a difference to my theory.)
Who's Alive and Where
This is just a list of the people off the Island who are likely dead or alive. And just so you know, I'm staying spoiler free this year. So I know there are a lot of rumours going around about who's coming back and who isn't but let's not post those items here.
Season 6 Premiere Expectations
Let's all get our hopes up. Let's raise our expectations so high that the show will never be able to meet them. Yeah!
What Do You Want?
What do you want from the Season 6 premiere? Do you want a grand reunion episode? Do you want Jughead to reset the past? Or do you want it to simply cause a big explosion? Do you want the past to be ignored? Or do you want the story to pick up where it left off, with our 70s heroes standing around The Swan and our 07 heroes standing around the foot?

Nice Jewish woman...
posted Wednesday, October, 30th 2019, 4:45pm
We met for coffee on a fall day some 11 years ago (not the way this system suggests...) after a brief connection from Plentyoffish. I forgot your name – Leanne... (?)..., Leigh... (?), starting with L letter, I am guessing... You were a nice, well traveled and educated Jewish woman. We then had a dinner in a restaurant at Commercial Drive. Then we met one more time and you showed me your pictures from the places you had traveled to in Australia, well before I did. You had a daughter who at that time had been in process of her sex change and changing herself from a woman to a man and this is a very distinctive feature that should define you in my search. Then I left Vancouver for a project and you went to Israel. After these travel events we never got together again. I have been thinking about you on several occasions, still thinking how you have been doing after all these years. If you, or others who know you, see this ad, please respond. Thank you a lot!

'Military Dictatorships for Dummies': Internet appalled after Huckabee Sanders says generals can't be questioned
Sarah Huckabee Sanders on Friday made a stunning remark about the appropriateness of questioning a four star Marine general, lambasting members of the press for pointing out Gen. John Kelly mischaracterized a 2015 speech by Rep. Frederica Wilson (D-FL).
"If you want to go after General Kelly, that's up to you," Sanders said during Friday's press briefing. "If you want to get into a debate with the four-star Marine general, I think that's something highly inappropriate. Go ahead."
That comment shocked the Internet on Friday, with users pointing out her remarks were more indicative of a dictatorship than America's constitutional democracy.

Sarah Sanders didn't actually mean it about how you can't argue with a 4-star general. The problem is, she's an idiot.

when the former general is lying and shilling for a lying president, we will question, poke, probe and expose. We will do what it takes. https://t.co/j13rq0rrOA

So yes, question the fuck out of that 4 star general. He's probably a dumbass too.

Setting the standard that it's "highly inappropriate" to disagree with a general — even when they're demonstrably wrong — I mean, what could possibly go wrong??

I would very much like to get into a debate with a 4-star Marine general, tbh.
— Jacob Bacharach (@jakebackpack) October 20, 2017
Does Kelly's identity as a retired general prevent him from having to answer questions about why he misrepresented a Congresswoman's words? https://t.co/QuhvfDwu5m
— Eugene Scott (@Eugene_Scott) October 20, 2017
wow so shocking Kelly's a lying sack of shit
I mean sure he serves a lying sack of shit every day
but he's a general
so confusing! https://t.co/pRAmOaGx5w

I actually do want to get in a debate with a retired Marine general. Because this is America.

I'm sorry I mixed up the empathy potion I put in General Kelly's coffee with the imminent military coup potion

In what country?

I don't know how it works in America but in my country I can also question a general. Not just some guy in a bad suit. https://t.co/ikdeGFGLUi

if general kelly wanted to keep the respect he earned in the military he shouldnt have gone to work for a racist liar and lied for the liar
— Oliver Willis (@owillis) October 20, 2017
@SarahHuckabee is so fucking trash. To use Kelly's military status to make him above reproach for his deceitful mysogynoir is pathetic. https://t.co/6IFCg5HKmx

A 4-star general is not above criticism. John Kelly lied and he deserves to be called out. https://t.co/Jwyr8qStP6

KELLY IS ALSO IN A CIVILIAN POSITION NOW. THAT'S THE WHOLE POINT. THAT'S WHY YOU DON'T APPOINT GENERALS TO THESE POSITIONS. https://t.co/NKpGYqs4dk

I have developed a very strong partiality for the dead: they don't talk back, they don't sue, and they don't have angry relatives.
As the bull market goes on, people who take great risks achieve great rewards, seemingly without punishment. It's like crime without punishment or sex without sin.
I'm dubious about having Social Security put into the stock market.
I think that we have gotten very far away from the idea that there's something sacrosanct about retirement investments.
I'm a biographer; I can live with a little hyperbole.
The founding fathers were not only brilliant, they were system builders and systematic thinkers. They came up with comprehensive plans and visions.

The public has lost faith in the ability of Social Security and Medicare to provide for old age. They've lost faith in the banking system and in conventional medical insurance.
Early on, New York already had a national and even international identity.
When the market is just going up, up, and up, we all tend to be blind to the holes in the market. They're all papered over by the rise.
The history of Wall Street is inseparable from New York.
Partly because his life ended before the age of 50, Hamilton was defined by the other founding fathers, and he managed, with amazing consistency, to alienate most of them.
Because of the love affair between the American public and the stock market, it is possible for entrepreneurs, technological visionaries and inventors of every sort to get financing.
In the 1920s you could buy stocks on margin.
You could put 10 percent down and borrow the rest against your stocks.
One of the special characteristics of New York is that it is different from a London or a Paris because it's the financial capital, and the cultural capital, but not the political capital.
The mutual fund industry and small investors are very relentless and very unforgiving if people don't perform.
The American public historically was really not part of the stock market.
Once the brokerage house, rather than the bank, became the locus for American savings, that money would find its way into the stock market, because the broker was someone with a much higher tolerance for risk than the banker.
A crash really occurs when you suddenly have a violent downturn in the market that then heralds a long bull market.
One of the very nice things about investing in the stock market is that you learn about all different aspects of the economy. It's your window into a very large world.
What I find very interesting about the mutual funds managers is that here are people who are the new masters of the universe. They're managing billions, yet they're subject to this quiet daily tyranny of numbers.
The best argument for mutual funds is that they offer safety and diversification. But they don't necessarily offer safety and diversification.
After being Washington's aide for four years and becoming the hero of Yorktown, Hamilton was viewed with a great deal of suspicion because of his association with Tories.
There were two qualities about the mutual funds of the 1920s that made them extremely speculative. One was that they were heavily leveraged. Two, mutual funds were allowed to invest in other mutual funds.
The Great Inflation of the 1970s destroyed faith in paper assets, because if you held a bond, suddenly the bond was worth much less money than it was before.
You don't want too much fear in a market, because people will be blinded to some very good buying opportunities. You don't want too much complacency because people will be blinded to some risk.
I think those who invest in mutual funds want someone else to do the thinking for them. But the fact that they can move the money around the family of mutual funds just through a phone call lets them feel that they can play tycoons.
Mutual fund managers are trapped in this rather deadly vicious circle: the more successful they are, the more money flows into their mutual fund. Then, it is more difficult for them to beat the market averages or even to match their own past performance.
There is a kind of fear, approaching a panic, that's spreading through the Baby Boom Generation, which has suddenly discovered that it will have to provide for its own retirement.
Mutual funds give people the sense that they're investing with the big boys and that they're really not at a disadvantage entering the stock market.
I think one of the important things that's happened in the course of the century is that life expectancy has doubled.
After 1929, so many people had been traumatized by the stock market crash that there was a lost generation.
As a bull market continues, almost anything you buy goes up.
It makes you feel that investing in stocks is a very easy and safe and that you're a financial genius.
If you go back to the time of J.P. Morgan, the world of high finance was completely wholesale. The prestigious investment banks on Wall Street appealed exclusively to large corporations, governments, and to extremely wealthy individuals.
That strategy of buy and hold, which is the sound and sensible one for the individual, can have very dangerous and perverse effects for the market as a whole.
Writing about dead white males seems to be out of favor among academics.
There is no country in the world where it's as easy to find venture capital in the stock market as the United States.
By the late 1980s people realized that houses did not always appreciate and that they could fluctuate like any other market commodity.
A lot of the money in the stock market is really our national retirement plan, for better or worse.
Hamilton had one of those extraordinary 18th-century minds that touched on virtually every major topic of the day.
Mutual funds have historically offered safety and diversification.
And they spare you the responsibility of picking individual stocks.
In the 1920s, Wall Street was a world that was really dominated by professional speculators and stock pools. These people had a monopoly over information.
In the 1970s we saw a massive shift of household savings from the banks to the brokerage firms.
Stock market corrections, although painful at the time, are actually a very healthy part of the whole mechanism, because there are always speculative excesses that develop, particularly during the long bull market.
Any bull market covers a multitude of sins, so there may be all sorts of problems with the current system that we won't see until the bear market comes.
I think there's a tide that tends to carry historians back to the past.
We really haven't had very much experience with people funding their retirement out of the stock market, and we don't know, frankly, how it would work under every scenario.
I don't think that a mutual fund that invests exclusively in biotech start-ups or invests exclusively in companies in Thailand offers any great safety or diversification.
The securities laws of the 1930s were so important because it forced companies to file registration statements and issue prospectuses, and it remedied the imbalance of information.
When news of the crash came, probably a lot of people in small towns and farms across America felt a sense of grim satisfaction that the sinners had finally been punished for their wicked ways.

Grand Prix of Long Beach application will go live 1am Pacific time on Tuesday, January 15. Hopefully this post will serve as a reminder for me to apply, thru Motorsportreg: (http://www.motorsportreg.com/index.cfm/event/event.advert/uidEvent/1C2627FA-A9B9-68AF-39B04DDE0050287C#.UPLiKSftTJJ)
I would really like to participate in more North American events both because it is cheaper to travel here (now that I've signed up for some generous bonuses through US-based domestic airline frequent flyer programs) and it takes less time to get there. I have yet to marshal an event in California though I have worked with several marshals from there, last one being my post chief from the USGP at Austin, and before that another post chief at MotoGP in Indianapolis. The Grand Prix of Long Beach is a major event for Indycar, ALMS and Formula Drift which I haven't participated in yet, so there's a lot to look forward to.
Hope I can swing it 🙂

Pints for a Purpose
February 23, 2019 @ 10:00 am - 2:00 pmFree
Pints for a Purpose: Support the Gorman Family
After a very active Summer, our Lansdowne neighbors, The Gorman Family, were just getting settled back into a school routine. They enjoyed a relaxing Labor Day Weekend with a visit to Bear Chase Brewing Company, and all were looking forward to cooler temps and everything related to Fall. However the Tuesday after Labor Day, September 4, 2018 became a day which changed the Gorman's life. The oldest of 4 siblings at 9 years old, Quinn Gorman awoke with severe pain in his left leg. Later that day, after multiple doctor appointments and x-rays, Quinn was diagnosed with Osteosarcoma in his left femur. Bone Cancer – two words a 9 year old should never have to hear.
Over the last four months our Super Quinn has been a warrior through 9 chemotherapy treatments; a surgery to remove the tumor which replaced 20 cm of his left femur with a titanium prosthesis, and over 2 months worth of overnight stays at INOVA Childrens Hospital. He has 9 additional rounds of chemotherapy scheduled over the next 12 weeks, and months of rehab ahead of him.
Many have asked how they can help and we feel it's only fitting to come together at Bear Chase for a fun afternoon to raise a pint for a purpose! There will be live music from Hard Swimmin' Fish and Flavour food truck will be on site as well! Bear Chase Brewing Company has committed to generously donate 20% of sales from the entire day to the Gorman family in support of Quinn. If you care to lend additional assistance, gas cards, Costco cards or local restaurant gift cards would be greatly appreciated! Monetary donations will be accepted at the event or can be made through a Go Fund Me page that has been established for the family: https://www.gofundme.com/quinnstrong-support-for-the-gorman-family

How Much Does It Cost To Repair TV Or Home Theater Accessories?
An hour relaxing in front of your television is the perfect way to unwind after a hard day, so it's frustrating when some of your home theater accessories stop functioning. Many things have the potential to go wrong, from the projector bulb blowing to the universal remote losing its pre-programmed functions. Employing a home theater or electrical professional to resolve the issue is often the safest and most convenient option, but it's important to know how much it could cost before shopping for quotes.

TV Or Home Theater Accessory Repair Costs
The cost to repair components, accessories and wiring for your home theater system varies considerably based on the make and model of the parts, the nature and severity of the fault and even your geographical location. The cost to employ a professional electrician to resolve common wiring and component faults (including parts and labor) usually ranges from $105 to $334, averaging $220. Small jobs cost as little as $50, while larger jobs cost as much as $700. Common costs include:
- Employing an electrician for wiring problems: $160 to $519
- Employing an expert to consolidate a new universal remote: $100 to $800
- Replacing cables: $5 to $100
In some cases, it's possible to undertake the repair as a DIY project, in which case the only costs are your time and any tools and materials you require. Reprogramming a universal remote, changing the bulb in a projector, or replacing a broken HDMI cable are suitable tasks for DIY enthusiasts; but it's a good idea to leave any work involving electrical wiring and complex theater components to a professional to resolve safely.
Common TV Or Home Theater Accessory Repairs
A home theater system comprises a series of electronic devices wired together. Any aspect of the system has the potential to go wrong, ruining your viewing. If the fault relates to one of the devices, such as a malfunctioning television or Blu-ray player, sometimes the only recourse is to replace the device. In addition to faults with the television, common repairs include:
Method of Repair
Wiring problems
Hire an electrician
Up to $70 per hour
Faulty HDMI cable
Replace the cable
$5 to $35
Damaged cables
Replace all damaged cables
$5 to $100
Try reprogramming it
$30 to $100 to replace
Burned out projector lamp
Replace the lamp
$30 to $400
Warning Signs Of Repairs
Home theater faults vary, so there are many different symptoms to watch out for:
- The system doesn't turn on: Many faults prevent the system from powering on, including dead batteries in the remote control, a broken device or a loose or broken cable.
- Low picture quality: Pixilated or fuzzy images may indicate a fault with your television antenna, or it may be the result of a loose or damaged HDMI cable.
- No sound: If the television is displaying, but there is no audio from your surround sound system, there may be loose or broken cables. Alternatively, you may have a broken speaker system.
- Remote control doesn't work: If your remote fails to operate the theater system, it may be something as simple as dead batteries that need replacing. If the remote is broken, it's generally more cost-effective to replace it, especially if it isn't one of the more expensive models.
- Projector lamp doesn't come on: The lamps in projectors usually burn out after approximately 1,000 hours. Replacing them is a common part of maintaining the projector, and is a simple task that most owners do without the need to hire an expert.
- DVD player or Blu-ray player fails to read the disc: This may indicate a fault with the device, or it may be some dirt or a scratch on the disc.
Repair Or Replacement?
It's possible to repair many types of home theater accessories, including televisions, projectors and speakers. Such repairs may involve transporting the item to a repair shop, which incurs additional transportation charges. The combined cost of transportation, parts and labor may mean it's actually less expensive to replace the device.
Cables that are fraying, or which have cuts out of the protective sheath, are potential fire hazards. You should immediately stop using the cables, dispose of them safely and replace them with new ones.
DIY Or Hire A Pro?
Electrician costs could run up to $70 per hour, so doing the work yourself could save a considerable amount of money; however, this is not always a wise move. Sometimes the fault is not immediately apparent, and what you assume to be an issue with the television is actually a fault with a wire, and what you thought was a problem with your speaker cables is actually a problem with the sound system. Discovering the fault in a series of linked systems, especially when wires are inside walls and under floors, is problematic; and working with the electrical components is potentially dangerous. In many cases, it's better to hire a professional who has the ability to quickly determine the fault and repair it with the minimum amount of disruption to your home life.
Experts have all of the necessary tools and equipment, and frequently get components at trade discounts. If you have to purchase all of these things yourself, you may soon discover that the cost of your DIY project starts to increase rapidly. When this happens, it may actually be more cost-effective to turn to a professional for assistance.
Find A Pro
Hiring a pro is the simplest option for repairing your television or home theater. Use our free lead generator to shop for a competitive quote among professionals in your area. Bear in mind that the lowest quote does not necessarily reflect the best value for money. Employ a professional who meets your expectations in terms of professionalism, quality of service and cost.
