Some is innie and some is outie. What's the big deal?

A much higher density of co-creation/God presence than we are currently experiencing.

Mankind is indeed a noble creature, and it's time for us to demonstrate such through our thoughts and actions.

Partly a reply to the post you were responding to, partly a high-five to PC.

Have you had in your life, previous to encountering the 12 Steps, experiences which you then or now consider to be acts of God? I've wondered if and how common this would be among 12-Steppers, to allow greater ease of faith/belief upon encountering Steps 2 and 3 (much less the rest).

If God would build in this sort of thing into our lives as an aid (and if not, what lesson/depth was learned as a result).

Cheers to everyone!

only continue to increase

Visualize white light flowing down upon Iran, and pray that wonderful prayer: "I am praying for the enlightenment of all sentient beings", as well as any direct sentiments for Iran and its lovely people.

Things are going to continue changing. Hopefully, terms such as "Supreme Leader" shall shortly fall by the wayside.

Cowering, and pretending it's not so very bad after all and that if we just wait long enough the bad things will go away.

And since Bush is gone, now reflects Californians' inability to tell Bush apart from Arnold (no difference, yet still, no protest at the appropriate scale).

Creating an outrage and then getting it heard in higher and higher courts can sometimes be how Republicans attempt to install their agenda through the legal system...they've tried it with creationism, then whatever the hell they reframed it as, all through back-handed techniques. They're getting sleazier and sleazier.

I'm perfectly happy to be wrong about this, however. It's just that Ahnold is NOT the state's friend, by any imaginable amount. When he backs something...

also stated that India will again become the world's leader, so if this is correct (Yogananda made some overtures about this as well), America will shift into being a second-line power, and will undertake a new, spiritual direction, hopefully and especially regarding taking care of each other versus drooling after that new plasma-screen television.

What a wonderful change that would be.

"See you in a year, year and a half. Unless you are willfully blind, you know that the trend shall continue as I've been describing it for several years. There are possible exceptions in regard to positive trends vaporizing some of the potential negatives, as we have not invaded Iran, etc. However, change is constant. Listening to me won't matter then. Except to say, the desired result of the process we are undergoing is consciousness regarding taking care of each other."

Maharishi Mahesh Yogi: Science of Being and Art of Living: "When the economy is in the news, teach Transcendental Meditation." plus the India prediction at the end in the various pamphlets he's published.

"I'm dumbfounded that people insist on pushing this.
I am not stupid. I can see which people are making the effort to keep this situation alive, and who is wisely staying out of it.

I have no clue why anyone would want to continually bait other people like this. But I would not be surprised if the hope is that certain people will lash out in response, and then you can pretend that you are the innocent victims here.

Or maybe some of you just get a kick out of being cruel.

I know, I know -- you're outraged that I would dare to suggest that anyone in the DU Lounge is cruel. It's all just harmless fun!™

If you want CD quality or above (some soundcards support 24 bit/96 KHz rates, and 24 bit, even at a 44.1 sample rate, is vastly superior to 16 bit, much less MP3), use an existing turntable (as the above poster recommended) or get something like a Music Hall turntable ($500-ish), a good preamp and soundcard, and go to town.

A television channel stated that this is the worst the State has been since the Great Depression, or at least that the local recession is the worst since..and that the state is currently one of the most generous regarding social services, and that the changes he's ordered will make it one of the stingiest.

He has certainly Republicanized California, or at minimum, punished it quite well.

This is a mini version of what Bush has done to the country, economically and socially, an attempt to drive it back to the stone age and dependency upon the very rich (read: the very rich dominate the poor).

Arnold is now in the system, like a tapeworm. Better to inoculate and remove him from politics (act now or endure the results we've already seen with his familiars). Impeach/Remove...

It will get worse, and people will want change (which of course allows the Republicans to -again- offer their own choices to an increasingly troubled public, just as Bush did..).

From Wikipedia.org's GOP page, for anyone not believing that these people are indeed long-term schemers:

"Republican Karl Rove and other commentators had speculated about a permanent political realignment in favor of the GOP along the lines of the presidential election of 1896, in which William McKinley constructed a Republican majority that lasted for the next 36 years."

Need I mention that Newt Gingrich should be permanently restricted from any and all positions of power and influence?

(At minimum because under his Governance, things have slipped into disarray and must be corrected by, say, a team of Obama's people.)

The reasons are manifold yet center upon previous and existing attempts by Republicans to repeal the limitation regarding foreign national becoming President. Having failed, we next see Arnold becoming California Governor via a plan thought out by Enron involving power black-outs, rate hikes, and other irritations designed to make the citizenry angry enough to blame the then current Governor, and to oust him/install Arnold via a proffered run-off election. Tibetans call these practices "creating causes and conditions". Enron employees were recorded discussing this plot.

Arnold is rumored to have met with Enron prior to the start of the black-outs. Enron were also major BushCo contributors.

Note that when Arnold got into office, he attacked several sections of the infrastructure, including the nursing and fire-fighting structures, among others. They fought back against what were obvious attacks, and won.

Arnold "gave in to the will of the people", and changed his structure of attack, which involves guess what, an Enron-like crisis involving the state budget.

Voters were offered bad choices last May 19, and refused them. Of course, this then allows Arnold to do what he wishes to the state infrastructure, in order to "balance the budget". Such actions already involve reported nearly total cuts for in-home nursing care excepting only the worst instances, cuts in mental health care, and several other attacks upon the weakest members of local society. The sanctity of the State parks system is in question, and possible privatization (Republicans love Privatization, which basically means, "we own and control this").

Republicans have long hated Blue California and its many Presidential votes. I wonder if splitting the State into North and South might possibly alter one part, possibly the North, into a just-barely Red "state", robbing us of much of our deserved power in the Electoral process. This is of course supposition, yet we must consider that friends of Enron might also behave like Enron. Bush certainly did, attempting to convince us to give Social Security funding/reserves to Wall Street under the guise of an(other) imminent threat. He of course simply went ahead and gave one trillion dollars to Wall Street and the banks just prior to leaving office (rumor has it that this will be the scathing subject of Michael Moore's next documentary..GO MICHAEL!).

I am both reading and writing between the lines in this post (and readily accept the tin-foil jokes which are mandatory with such things), as I always wish to decode the trends I note into a recognizable structure. Suffice to say, Arnold used ridicule to gain his body-building title; a documentary is available and if I am incorrect, apologize, however, this is my memory of it. Arnold entered California office and attacked the infrastructure in the same manner Bush and Reagan attacked the middle class and the national infrastructure. The actions are there for your own conclusions; these are mine, and they point to the very real need to immediately remove him from office. He has already done enough damage to California; do not allow them to attempt to create a Presidential-level "special election" as they have here. This is not inevitable, but to quote Front 242, "It worked so well before. Let's use it once more." Just to keep your eyes open for such proven tactics!

Ooga Booga Smooga Wooga to you as well, patriot.

It appears that Enron/Ahnold/Republicans are getting their way/plans and that we're going to be Gerrymandered... Or pray that I'm wrong. Enron are rumored to have met secretly with Ahnold prior to their purposely causing the "rolling blackouts" and phony energy crisis which resulted in enough civil distress, that the Governor was outsted in a special runoff election. A newspaper article read "Enron planned schemes in advance", if you wish to reference some of this. I've believed that Republicans hate California for its blue status and number of votes, and have long wanted to "do something" about it.

To this scheme-seer, looks like Arnold is merely doing another Enron on our state economy. His comment about "giving the voters what they want" raised my hackles.

Please tell me where I'm wrong as I'm always interested in new information.
