The kiss of death

Within these walls of blood and bone
the core of me is lifeless stone
forgetting faith, forever weak
never trust, never speak

under my mask, horror abides
once revealed, it will not hide
my true being, deranged and sick
which side of me would you pick?

my shell is breath taking, not a single flaw
my voice is enchanting, my beckoning call
my body is tight, your perfect dream
but who i truly am, would make you scream

beneath this layer of simple skin
lies a demon bedded within
cold and dark, it never sleeps
evil, mad, meager, weak

I came into this country without getting caught, and now everyday i am hunted and sought.
Whole nations have gathered to plan my destruction..they call me a breeder of crime and corruption.
I am more deadly then whiskey, more deadly then wine..hence i am known as the scourge of mankind.
I come in a powder thats nothing but waste, i look soft and fluffy, but im bitter to the taste.
I am brown, I am white..but deadly to use..but once your addicted i really abuse

From heads of state to the lowest of scum..i give you my word they'll be under my thumb.
I will take a richman and make him poor..i'll take a virgin and make her a whore.
I will make you lie,steal,borrow,and beg.
You will search for a vein in your arm or leg.
I will make you selfish and fill you with greed..regaurdless of color,religon, or creed.
My gift is an illusion, my blessing is fake, death and destruction follow my wake.
I am the kiss of death to all i touch..i start as a gift and end as a crutch.

Healing our World Through Childhood Memories



How far back into your childhood can you remember? Most of us can remember as far back to at least the age of 5, some even further into our past. Most of all, we remember the carefree and innocence that we experienced during those younger years. Our biggest memories encircle those closest to us, such as our parents, siblings, etc. Remember how your Mother’s love and soft hugs could fix any problem we could ever have, from a skinned knee to a broken friendship. We each have special memories from our childhood that we look back on....hopefully!!

Times have changed over the years, not all of us had great childhoods, or even ones that we really want to remember! For those that don’t have the fond memories that bring joy to them, we need to make our own now. In the process of making our own memories that possibly we didn't encounter, we can show the children of today the childhood we did not have, yet wanted and still yearn for today.




Making new memories to fill the gaps will not only lead us to be happier adults, it will instill a role into the children of today to repeat it in the future. Healing our world, also means healing our own selves within, and those that surround us. It does take work on our own personal parts, but as time goes by it becomes natural to us.  Some activities as simple as sitting down and coloring pictures with our kids, playing tag, or discovering new rocks in the creek bed; can change not only us, but the future generations to come. Through this small change in our lives we will give ourselves an inner peace we do not posses. There are many benefits to reverting back to our childhood minds. It is also a small way we can change history…Healing Our World.

Think of your childhood…was it all you wanted it to be? If not, don’t you want that for your children…to make their memories more precious for them to hold all their life. The memories we make today will trickle down from generation to generation, and with it will bring each generation closer to the peace that we seek for our world today. There is no time like the present to make that change! We all know that tomorrow may not come...so don't put off what you can do today! Give all the love that you posses, make every moment count.

What is the "Moral of the Story"…We may not be able to make a HUGE difference individually, but we all can make a contribute and make small differences now…that will have great impacts on future generations. Change happens in numbers...as the human race pulls together we will all become one!! STRONGER!

When Fear Attracks Danger: Beware of Anyone That Insults Others

Today I am going to write an article about FEAR. It is going to be a long reading and quite difficult to understand but I hope you will take your time to read it calmly and think about it. Because, we can feel fear, but do we really know what FEAR is..?

Far from what we have been taught by, our emotions act as "channelers" ("Action of modifying our Calcium Ion to acelerate our internal transactions and generate the Lithium that energizes us from whitin.")
From what I have told, there is not doubt. The question is: WHY ARE TOO MANY INTERESTED IN BREAKING THAT PROCESS OF CHANNELING?

The answer is simple: Because when humans will be aware of that process of Channeling, they will adquire the power previously unknown: "The ability to generate inner creativity"...against all odds, rain, thunder...not matter what happens out there...inside there is a Channel that is in permanent connection with The Universe.
Tradiotionally, in the word of rational psychology, it was decretred that the fear a defense mechanism to avoid a "greater evil". The truth is that we know now that fear is a bad "paralyzing" using the mechanisms of "Ego" even paralyzes the attitude of "I". It is curious that those who are trapped in fear, trigger mechanisms "Ego" by projection, creative paralysis, anger and hatred.

Invaluable was the work of Hameroff in the late nineteenth century. They found that the deaf could compose music. The key to the human capacity to make up emotions that have nothing to do with the instincts and / or feelings. The feelings are the result of external stimulation, while emotions come from internal generation. No inner life can not have emotions. No internal genesis theories can not be created or songs, or art or life.

The fear is DEATH, The Emotion is LIFE. Our education has taught us to assertively assertiveness transform all external stimulitation involving aggression towards us. Big mistake! We manage our feelings and we often invades the sense of fear. If that happens to us is because our biophysical stimulitations are outstanding social predator that stalks us and we generate fear. Often, we move from what others say or think about someone and go with the crowd current because we think about their external reaction. Appears fear of saying, of feelingl, of living, of creating, of progressing. We are afraid of going ahead and walk our path of creative thinking. Well .... This is the beginning of the end of our dearest FEAR.


What is fear?

Fear is a program of pre-frontal lobe our (reason) that tells us something external and / or internal social threatens the performance of our (pre-frontal) "Ego" to the detriment of the "I". So to speak, is an inheritance from our animal NDA. The densest part of our being, which reacts viscerally and intelligently.

Paradoxically, the incidence of fear in our central nervous system (CNS) generates levels of adrenaline and stress overload initially AMPA and NMDA charge exchange at synapses. This reaction leads to paralysis "predictable" or "crippling" as to such stimuli, the body reacts mainly from the survival instinct. Then fear enable animal survival mechanism intead of enabling the intellect. Certainly, over such stimulitation, reacts with an action of a similar nature to the contingency, to try to safeguard our physical and / or social, which continues to be the effect of fear, causing agents claim. So, fear attracts danger, and that interacts with the subject deceased, whose claim is just that .."paralyze the action of the receiver module."

It turns out that this fear comes from an animal evolution as a reminiscence of a time when there were continually lurking predators, survival in a hostile context in which the "Cro-Magnon" should ensure continuous supply and keep its young lass differentiating and imposing wild beasts that roamed their usual habitat. Gradually imposed "roles" and as they were a matriarchal society and / or patriarchal, that evolved separately in the maintenance of offspring as the ultimate goal of the consort, and the need / obligation to procure food and protect family / clan.

The Mammoth threatened and imposed fear, like other mammals with which the "homo sapiens" should coexist and prevail in the food chain, which led him to survive and develop socially the "clan" to "tribe" and the "tribe" to "Village" and "Village" to "collective" and "collective" to "Social Role". Currently, the "Social Role" is an optimal incentive protected by the constitutions of almost all advanced countries. The right of Diignity, Honor, Privacy, and so on...

Our physical architecture has been developed under these canons and the logic of those patterns. So far we live with a scientific model that advocates social and philosophical matter, the immediate materialization, early and short-term success, hedonism punctual and comfortable, and the satisfaction of the senses and ignores the emotions and feelings.

However, we evolved quickly and intelligently to a very different context: There is no longer a predator waiting at the exit of the cave that threatens our survival. There is not a bison that can test our skills as hunters for daily survival of our offspring. Nor a lion territory disputes with us. So ... What kind of predators lurk to react with fear...?

"Psychological Predators"

The continued well-being. maintaining the "role" and transaction security in exchange for freedom, have gradually led to "homo sapiens" the worst exclavitudes: The constant need for "self-recognition" in their immediate social and mediate. The question of "competence", the "competent" is the greatest threat when questioned by others, but especially tragic for "some" is when this issue occurs in their immediate environment and / or family.

Certainly, the most dangerous weapon of the XXI century is precisely that: "The question of incompetence." The "social ridicule" and "social ostracism". These consequences are the biggest fear may come to breed in the "homo sapiens". That is where the fear reaches its greatest impact, precisely because the subject does not have an inner balance, is extremely vulnerable to external threat of losing their "status", "competence", his "social credibility".
Obviously the system has been designed to operate such limits to those who "dare" transgress "orthodoxy".

If we react to such threats with fear, our "Ego" will impose to our "I", and fall victims of manipulation psycho- paralyzing the whole process of creativity. Those who impose the logic of fear are real experts in social predation.
Under that apparent guise of "assertiveness" and "soft" hides a whole network of absolute superficiality that when the time comes, will become into "anger", "hate" and "moral aggression."

However ... They know that everyday, the thousands who awaken to the new danger is not the buffalo, or bison, or mammoth, but the "predator-destroyer" of creative initiatives. It is not coincidence that 80% of the European adult population over 45 with higher education, is literally "awakening" and spending "some" or even "all" their time to work spread of "conscience."


The key is the Will.

As Ancient Greek philosophers said, the key is to not be swayed by the passions, trying to take decisions consciously and enjoying the positive energy that emanates from within. As we generate the energy accelerates the fractal process. The more relaxed you are the CNS, the greater our inner life. The higher the inner life, the less fear. The lower the fear, the greater the creativity and the feeling of LOVE for those around us. The higher the energy, enjoy conversations increasingly sterile, superficial and / or banal. As the process progresses, we begin to need less and enjoy more of the people, delivery and happiness of the beings around us.

It is the will of our "I" our "BE" imposing our "EGO". Once this process begins, the effects are irreversible, since it knows the meaning of true happiness. Moreover, the opening of the centres AMPA and NMDA receptors, stimulates the interaction of Channeling with Calmodulin activates the Lithium and generates a serie of modifications in the processes of absorption of proteins by NDA, slow aging and oxidation and triggers a sense of inexhaustible energy.

As a curiosity Homo "Cognos" has become into a Channeler. He feels connected to the Intelligent Universe, and transactional million packets per second. His mind is connected with others and begins to walk away from those who still cling to anger, hatred and fear. He begins to see and perceives the emotions of others and interacts with them nonverbally, with their own emotions. He does not conceive violence, war and chaos. So, either the fear or hatred or anger.

Find Out What Is Your Love and LOve Life

I know there are times, things are tough. Some things are more, when we are older.
Even if I’m not alone online.. even if I’ve close Friends here.. even if I’ve a Soul 
Mate on earth.. 
I’m more & more older each year that pass away.

I have no one in my real life.. no one who care, who hug me, who hold my hand.
I dont know how many time I still will be on earth.. but, I want to meet my True Love.. 
and live with until the end.

I know that True Love, is to feel the life.. and live through the eyes and the Love of 
another one.. 
I never meet this True Love..this true person..

Life is what it is.. 
People cross our life.. 
All people haven’t the same goal, nor the same way, nor the same definition of the verb 
“Aimer”.

Some play with us.. Some use us.. 
Some just need travel’s friend for a while.. 
And sometimes.. we are only a step for others.

Difficult to find.. Difficult to trust.. Difficult to wait.. 
Difficult to have so much love in my heart & not being able to share it, with someone in 
my life. 
It’s sad & sometime painful to be alone with the half of a heart..

“When we miss Love… we miss to live” …
Don’t miss your life.. find your Love

illusions of death and resurrection

Winter dances  are elaborately staged performances featuring masked dancers and ingenious mechanical devices that create illusions of death and resurrection and other astounding manifestations of supernatural power and presences. In this context, animal representations, most notably masks, are related to but are conceptually distinct from the potlatch proper. During these initiation rituals, encounters with supernatural powers occur either as spirit possession or theatrical simulation

A series of conventions in Northwest Coast art permits the parts of animals to represent the entire creatures - eg, a raven's beak, beaver's teeth, whale's flukes. Two animals frequently share a single body, or a single animal is split at the face or along the backbone to create 2 bilaterally symmetrical profiles; animal parts are rearranged from their biological locations; some are placed inside other animals, or intertwined with them. All these conventions create great formal and iconographic complexities.
Most obviously in the winter dances, but also widely recognizable in other Northwest Coast iconography, is the theme of transformation or metamorphosis between beings of the land, sea and sky, and ultimately between the domains of the living and the dead. A special type of transformation mask has double faces operated by strings so that an outer (usually animal) face opens to reveal a human face within. Masks frequently have movable eyes, jaws and other parts.
Three major styles have been identified - Northern, Central and Southern, corresponding to the major cultural divisions which are used by anthropologists.

Frankenstein Is Not the Monster!

Nobody know this story until 1915 when bones of percy was found in a forest in london. sciencetists examinded the bones and found out he was murderd by his beloved mary.
it is about a man called Frankenstein that makes a monster from the dead people and then when the monster gets turn on it looks really ugly and every body thinks it will hurt people but it is really a nice person ---- Frankenstein is a man whom wants to explore science, so he creates a monster out of human corpses. Frankenstein turns his back on his creation, and the bad treatment from humans changes the monster into something full of hatred and pain from his caring and compassionate self, so the monster gets revenge on Frankenstein for not looking after him, and the monster kills all that Frankenstein loves.
In the film, when the creature comes to Frankenstein and asks him to create a partner for
him, he chooses the body of Justine to bring back to life.In the novel Frankenstein destroys the half-made female creature before ever bringing it to life.

-What happens in the film?

-Why do you think Branagh makes these two significant changes?
-How does this affect the way
in which we understand both Frankenstein and the creature? What does this add to the story?

-How does MARY SHELLEY’S FRANKENSTEIN use our expectations of the FRANKENSTEIN
story and in what ways does it surprise us?






For me, the story is less a horror film than a larger than life Gothic fairy tale. It’s full of real
psychological insights about family. It deals with the themes of parenting and responsibility, of
birth and death, of man’s arrogance in the face of nature and his inhumanity to man.

These lines  spoken by the creature to Frankenstein :

‘Unfeeling, heartless creator! You endowed me with perceptions and passions and then cast me
abroad an object for scorn and horror of mankind.. .1 am alone, and miserable; man will not
associate with me; but one as deformed and horrible as myself would not deny herself to me.
The creature created by Frankenstein is often described as a monster. But is he a monster or a
victim? Consider that he is not even given a name?




FRIEND, FAMILY, FATHER



These are the three words that the creature speaks as he hides in the pigsty. Why should these

three words be so important to the creature?

Consider the various friendships, families and father figures that you encounter in the film.


Then consider the ways in which the creature either does or does nor fir into these families,

friendships and parental relationships. What effect does he have on each? Could you say that at any one moment in his life we see him happy? Does he ever gain any of these three things -

friend, family, father?



CREATURE, MONSTER, VICTIM



Having thought about these three key words, are you now in a position to decide which of the

three descriptions of the creature - creature, monster, victim - is the most correct? You could

divide into three groups and each group could attempt to argue one view. You should try to backup your arguments

The monster comes into the world by a pretty terrible set of circumstances. He has the strength of a giant, yet an infant mind. He has a gentle nature, yet his physical defects hide his goodness and make everyone fear and mistreat him. He is rejected by his own creator because of his hideous looks. His feelings are the most deep and moving of any character’s
Now, whether or not you’d like to admit it, you teared up a little bit at that ending. Come on, a little bit. Why is that? Because we, the readers, totally like the monster. He’s a nice guy. He’s compassionate. He’s people-smart. He saves a little girl’s life. He just gets the shaft because he’s ugly. Can we blame him if he lashes out in unexpected and absurdly violent ways?

That’s a good question. Do we blame him? Do we hate him? Do we love him? This sounds like more conflicting emotions. Could it be that we, the reader, feel the same duality of emotions that the monster and Victor feel for each other?

The Trojan War ...One of the most famous tricks of all time






Along the wall, inside of the city, a set of stairs wound up to the top. Warriors could stand at the top of the stairs and shoot arrows down at intruders who were trying to get inside the city. There were also holes built high on the wall. Archers could shoot arrows though the holes as well. If the wall was high enough and strong enough, it could do a pretty good job keeping intruders from coming inside. 

The walls around Troy were very high and very strong. According to the legend of Trojan Horse, for ten long years, the Greeks had been trying to get over the wall around the city of Troy. But the Greeks could not get over the wall. And the Trojans could not drive the Greeks away. Year after year they fought. And year after year, neither side won. 

One day, a Greek general, Odysseus, had a tricky idea. "Let's pretend to sail away," he suggested. "We'll leave a gift for Troy, a gift to announce the end of the war, a wooden horse with 30 men hidden inside. At night, these men can sneak out and open the gate of Troy!" That was the way things were done back then. When you admitted defeat, you supplied a gift. It could be a gift of money, art, slaves, anything really. It made sense to leave a gift of art. The Greeks were famous for their art. 

The Greeks thought it was a brilliant idea. They had their best artists build the horse. It was a magnificent horse. When it was ready, the Greeks brought the huge wooden horse as close to Troy's city gates as they could get without being shot full of arrows. The Greeks pretended to sail away. 

When the Trojan archers at the top of the stairs saw the Greeks leaving, they could not believe their eyes. Were the Greeks giving up at last? Had the Trojans won the war? It certainly appeared so! The Trojans dragged the horse inside their city and closed the gates. 

Some people wanted to burn the horse, which would have been a sad fate for the Greek soldiers hidden inside. But the Trojan people said, "NO! It's too beautiful! We'll keep it forever as a reminder of our victory!" (The Greeks had counted on that reaction. The Greeks might be famous for their art, but the Trojans were famous for their bragging. The Greeks were sure the Trojans would want to display the magnificent horse. Sure enough, that's exactly what happened, or so legend says.) 

That night, while the Trojan people slept soundly, exhausted from their celebrations, the 30 Greek men hidden inside the wooden horse climbed out and opened the gates of Troy and let the Greek army inside. That was the end of Troy. 
There is an old saying, one still used today - Beware of Greeks bearing gifts! That old saying refers to the legend of the Trojan Horse.

So was the Trojan war historical?

The Mask of Agamemnon is an artifact discovered in Mycenae in 1876 by the German archaeologist Heinrich Schliemann. This mask is made of gold and is a funeral mask found over the face of a dead body in a burial place at Mycenae. Schliemann thought that the body and the mask are of the legendary King Agamemnon.
According to the Greek mythology, Agamemnon was the son of King Atreus of Mycenae and Queen Aerope. He was the leader of the Greeks during the Trojan War, as Mycenae was the most powerful Greek town that time. He was also the brother of Menelaus and the husband of Clytemnestra. Agamemnon had three daughters and one son. One of his daughters, Iphigenia, was sacrificed to goddess Artemis so that the wind blows and the Greek ships could set sail to Troy. When Agamemnon returned to his kingdom after the end of the Trojan War, he was murdered by his wife Clytemnestra and her lover Aegisthus, in revenge for the sacrifice of Iphigenia.

Of all the masks discovered at the site, the Mask of Agamemnon from grave V is the most famous. "I have gazed on the face of Agamemnon," Schliemann is said to have telegrammed a Greek newspaper on first seeing the mask. In fact, he himself never identified it as belonging to Agamemnon, but since it was the finest of the specimens it became associated with the hero. Nor did Schliemann ever note in writing the obvious stylistic differences--facial hair, ears cut out from the body of the mask--that set it apart from the others. In any case, the masks and gold jewelry Schliemann found at Mycenae brought him world fame; he was henceforth known as the Father of Mycenaean Archaeology.


 
In the ancient world it was the almost uniform belief
that the Trojan War was an historical event...But then,
as now, everyone knew there was no primary source
for the war; equally they knew that it had happened!

A Story Is Told in the Immortal Album....

The first disc on the Deluxe Edition have 15 songs. The last 2 are “Is It Scary/Threatened/Somebody’s Watching Me/Ghosts/Monsters” and “Thriller” The songs are mixed and the lyrics are reordered into a story!

 “I’ve seen the book of tales, crafted by magical hands older than time itself, it’s pages are filled with darkness and mystery”

There's a ghost out in the hall 
Theirs a goul beneath the bed 
Now it's coming through the walls 
Now it's coming down the stairs 

Then there's screaming in the dark 
Hear the beating of his heart
Can you feel it in the air 
Ghosts be hiding everywhere 
Is that scary for you baby            
Am I scary for you oh
Is it scary for you baby 
Is it scary for you 

You know the stranger is you
Is it scary for you baby 

There's a creak beneath the floor 
There's a creak behind the door
There's a rocking in the chair
But nobody sitting there 
Their's a ghostly smell around 
But nobody to be found 
And a coughin' and a yawnin'
Where restless soul's spoke 

I'm gonna be
Exactly what you gonna see 
So did you come to me 
To see your fantasies
Performed before your very eyes 

A haunting ghostly treat 
The foolish trickery 
And spirits dancing 
In the light 

But if you came to see 
The truth the purity 
It's here inside 
A lonely heart 

So let the performance start 

I always feel that somebody’s watching me
I always feel that somebody’s watching me
I always feel that somebody’s watching me
A nightmare, that’s the case
Never Neverland, that’s the place
A monster that you can see disappear
A monster, the worst thing to fear.
The king has risen, from hell
The king has risen, from hell
The king has risen, from hell
……….I’m not a ghost from hell, but I got a spell on you
You should be watching me, you should feel threatened
While you sleep, while you creep, you should be threatened
Every time your lady speaks she speaks of me, threatened
Half of me you’ll never be, so you should feel threatened by me

You should be watching me, you should feel threatened
While you sleep, while you creep, you should be threatened
Every time your lady speaks she speaks of me, threatened
Half of me you’ll never be, so you should feel threatened by me

What you have just witnessed could be the end of a particularly terrifying nightmare.
It isn’t. It’s the beginning.

It's close to midnight
something evil's lurkin' in the dark
under the moonlight
You see a sight that almost stops your heart
You try to scream
But terror takes the sound before you make it
You start to freeze
As horror looks you right between the eyes
You're paralyzed

'Cause this is thriller
Thriller night
And no one's gonna save you
From the beast about to strike
You know it's thriller
Thriller night
You're fighting for your life
Inside a killer
Thriller tonight, yeah


Darkness falls across the land
The midnight hour is close at hand
Creatures crawl in search of blood
To terrorize y'all's neighborhood
And those whoever shall be found
Without the soul for getting down
Must stand and face the hounds of hell
And rot inside a corpse's shell

I'm gonna thrill you tonight
The foulest stench's in the air
The funk of forty thousand years
And grizzly ghouls from every tomb
Are closing in to seal your doom
And though you fight to stay alive
Your body starts to shiver
for no mere mortal can resist
the evil of the thriller

Cause this is thriller
Thriller night
There ain't no second chance
to fight the thing with the forty eyes, girl
(Thriller)
(Thriller night)
You're fighting for your life
Inside a killer

(Thriller)
(Thriller night)
You're fighting for your life
Inside a killer

That this is thriller
Thriller night
'Cause I can thrill you more
Than any ghost would ever dare try
(Thriller)
(Thriller night)
So let me hold you tight
And share a
killer, diller, chiller
Thriller here tonight

Cause this is thriller
Thriller night
Girl, I can thrill you more
Than any ghost would ever dare try
(Thriller)
(Thriller night)
So let me hold you tight
And share a
(killer, thriller)

(Evil laugh)

So what do this mean?
The lyrics are not changed really, but they are mixed and put in different order. The songs are mixed and it makes a story. It’s a warning that we are being watched by evil people that want to control us. But there is a plan to stop them and the king will rise, not from hell but to be there for us. What they do is to scare us, choke us with fear. Like all the bombings, earthquakes and murders are all to scare us.
This is not a game, this is dead serious. People that know things are murdered and people are threatened. We are watched but they should be scared because they are being watched also. People have knowledge about it.

The change has come and it’s here……. It’s close to midnight, it’s close to the end of this nightmare. It can seem like a nightmare, but it’s the beginning. Join the new Golden Age.

The doorbell have rang, the truth is here for us all to see. Fight for your life! Fight for your rights!

What Is Our World Becoming???




When I heard about three police offers who wound up using a taser on a pregnant woman in Seattle, my first thought was that the story was some kind of a joke. Cops tasering a pregnant woman? In some sort of attempt to subdue her? For real?! You gotta be kidding me.

Apparently these three officers become enraged when they pulled Malaika Brooks over for a moving violation while driving her 11 yr old son to school, and she refused to sign the ticket they gave her because she didn't want to admit being guilty when she didn't feel she'd done anyting wrong. But in the state of Washington, it's a crimbe to refuse to sign a ticket, so they proceeded to arrest her. When Malaika then refused to get out of her car because she was in her last trimester of pregnancy, the cops must have felt really threatened, because that's when they tased her on her leg, arm and neck. And that's where the case gets even crazier.

Not only was she convincted for not signing the ticket, but after suing the officers because of pain and scars left by the taser, the circuit court ruled in their favor!But apparently getting away with using a stun gun on a pregnant woman wasn't enough for these guys, because now they've appealed their case to the Supreme Court in the hopes of getting a final ruling that they were not in the wrong by tasing Brooks. (Whaaatttt??). Who exactly do these guys think they are? First they use a stun gun on a woman who is carrying a child in her womb, and then after being told it was ok, they want addition justification for their actions? It souns like this has much more to do with the officers egos then with whether or not using the taser was wrong. Honestly, were they really so afraid of this woman and that she might escape and out run them?  What a bunch of wusses! I only hope the Supreme Courth finds their appeal as laughable as most people obviously will. Don't you think the cops could have choosen a different method?

Families Come In All Shapes & Sizes!!



The Johnston family, from Barnesville, Ga., is extreme in many ways. Standing no more than four feet tall, they call themselves "the real life seven dwarfs." They are the largest family of achondroplasia dwarfs, with a type of dwarfism that affects the extremities.When it comes to parenting, Amber and Trent Johnston go to extremes to keep things extremely normal. They do not modify any of their furniture to accommodate their size. Most parents try to make the world easier for their children. Not the Johnstons; as Amber Johnston told 20/20's" Barbara Walters, "we strive to raise our children in the world that's not built for them."

The Johnstons teach their kids to adapt to their environment and use their resources, some of which are a little unconventional. At the grocery store Amber sometimes lifts a child to reach an item on the top shelf. At home, step stools help them reach sinks and cabinets, and sticks attached to light switches help them turn lights on and off.

Trent Johnston came from a family of dwarfs. His wife's experience was the opposite -- her parents and siblings are average size. "I always knew that I was different," she said, "and I was little, but I chose to be positive." Amber first met other dwarfs as a teen, when she started attending little people's conventions. It was at one such event that she met Trent. After three and a half years of dating, they married. Five months later, Amber was pregnant with their first child. The Johnstons didn't know if the child would be like them or average size -- both were possible. At 31 weeks, they learned the child, a son, would also have achondroplasia dwarfism. They were very happy; they wanted kids who were "like them," they said. Two years later, Amber Johnston gave birth to a daughter, Elizabeth. It was a grueling, dangerous pregnancy. Amber's hips routinely became dislocated, and at one point Amber, who is 48 inches tall, measured 51 inches around.

The Johnstons dreamed of having a big family, but they knew Amber's body could not tolerate another pregnancy, so they turned to adoption. They wanted a family of people like them, and they knew that dwarfs were often put up for adoption. They also were aware of the terrible treatment dwarfs sometimes received abroad, being deprived of education and other opportunities.

No matter the family you belong to. They are YOUR family and will always be YOUR family! Family is more than blood! Family is LOVE! Love is important in our world!

The Lion King and Michael Jackson

Have you thought about what the story “The Lion King” and Michael Jackson have in common? Simba is born to be King one day. He is groomed as a cub to one day take the throne. Though there are ones within the pack that do not want him to be King. His uncle Scar is the leader and has others outside of the pack working for him to destroy Simba. Scar is driven by jealous and greed, wanting the crown as King for himself.
In time Scar succeeds, and SImba is said to have caused the death of his father Mufasa. Accused of a crime he didn’t commit. In turn Simba leaves, and says he will never return. Simba befriends others unlike him on his journey away from Pride Rock. Finding real friendship and trust within others. Until one day when Nala finds him because the pack has been taken over by the hyenas, and is being destroyed. She tells him he must return to save Pride Rock and the others within the pack. He is also discovered to be alive by the wise Rafiki. Rafiki finally makes Simba understand the greater message. And that he must return to his rightful place within the pack.
At first he refuses, but in time he returns to face those that have accused him of wrong doing in the past. Upon his return he challenges Scar and his accusations made against Simba. Simba with his new found friends and his companion Nila over take Scar and his followers. In the end Simba is made King, and his pack is saved.


Michael was born with a great gift to give to the world. But many have wanted to see him fail, out of jealousy and greed! False accusations were put against him, many, many times. Through the years he was beat down, up until the day he “died”. Just like the pack of lions needed Simba, our world needs Michael. We need him to return to his rightful place as King. To show the world that no one can ever stop you if you have enough faith in what is right. That we are all here to do our own each individual job, and must in the end take our rightful place within the world. Completing the job that we were created to do.

AND TIMING IS CRUCIAL



6/24/2009
Last rehearsal
6/25/2009
1:30 am ~ goes to bed
1:30 am ~ 10mg valium
2:00 am ~ 2mg ativan via iv (he already had an iv in 30 min? That’s a lil drastic even for someone of that status)
3:00 am ~ 2mg versed via iv
5:00 am ~ 2mg ativan via iv
7:30 am ~ 2mg versed via iv
10:40 am ~ 25mg propofol
10:50 am ~ Murray goes to bathroom
10:52 am ~ Murray says he came back to the room, didn't he check on MJ to make sure he was ok?
10:52 am~ 11:18 am = 26 min lapse of time?
11:18 am ~ Murray on phone with 3 separate calls for 47 minutes
11:18 am to 12:05 pm ~ Time Murray is on the phone (47 min) (you really think Murray is gonna stand over MJ and talk on the phone, while getting his much needed rest?)
12:05 pm ~ Murray off phone says returned to room to find MJ not breathing, but says exact time is unknown.
12:05 pm ~ 2mg of reversal drug Anexate (why does this take 5 min?) Its said that Murray did CPR for 25-30 min during this time. How is that possible if at 12:10 he goes to get security after performing CR for 25-30 min. Wouldn’t he have had to find MJ in the middle of a phone call?
12:10 pm ~ Murray called security to call for help (if Murray is running down stairs to get security who is doing CPR?)
12:21 pm ~ 911 call (why does it take 11 mins to make a 30 second call?)
12:25 pm ~ Ambulance arrives
12:40 pm ~ Ben Evenstad arrives ~ how did Ben get there so fast after the Ambulance? 15 mins?
1:06 pm Ambulance left the home of MJ.
Total time Ambulance was at the home 12:25 ~ 1:06 = 41 min. Isn’t one of the first rules that you take as least time as possible at the place to get them to the hospital faster?
2.7 mile trip from Michaels house to hospital, takes 8 min. This was an unusual route, who cares if the paparazzi is following you!
1:14 pm ~ EMT’s arrive at hospital with Michael
1:30 pm ~ The world gets notice of Michael falling ill. (but its said he was already gone at this time)
2:26 pm ~ Time of death is stated by Jermaine. How can that be the correct time if 56 min earlier he was supposedly already “gone”? Also why did Jermaine feel the need to say “My brother the Legendary King of Pop Michael Jackson, passed away on Thursday June 25th 2009 at 2:26pm” It was obvious that he passed away on that day…so why say the whole date? 5th day of the week, 6th month, 2009, 2:26! What would be the purpose of all those numbers?
2 hours and 5 min ~ from first call to time of reported “death”
According to the timeline if CPR was 25 min long then 911 called at 12:21 he went down at 11:56 (56 again)
Stated that drug had been given for 6 weeks prior to that day. Sold in 20mL or 50mL or 100mL. 6x200mg=1200 mg, 6x500mg=3000mg, 6x1000=6000mg. There was a purchase of 6 bottles. According to TMZ 20mL and 100mL bottles were found at MJ’s house. Its been noted that 25mg would not knock him out…his weight would require 150mg. If that was done repeatedly it would require more over time!!!
That means there was not enough in order to have given it to him every night for 6 weeks in a quantity that would render him to sleep!
Why is there monitoring equipment in this episode. Its been noted many times there was NO monitor!!!

The message hidden inside

Disney movies hide double-entendres ” hidden message. “So,” you ask, incredulous, “What could one of the most beloved and respected teams of filmmakers in our generation possibly be hiding from us?” Before you dismiss my claim, consider what is at stake.
The Lion King. On top of being my favorite Shakespeare adaptation, The Lion King is the only Disney film to date with zero references to the existence of human beings. Disney and Pixar rarely have humans as the sole intelligent entities in their movies. Excluding plots requiring magic, non-human characters in Disney films are either anthropomorphous animals (e.g. walking upright, wearing clothes, drinkin’ out of cups) that take the place of humans (e.g. Robin Hood or The Rescuers) or are animals with a preternatural awareness of and ability to interact with feral human beings (e.g. The Jungle Book or Tarzan). The Lion King stands out in that the universe is animal only. There is no trash on the Serengeti, no airplanes flying over, no animals in hats or walking unnaturally on hind legs. You can’t even date when the story takes place, because there are no human references from which to calculate an approximation. Save for the fact that Zazu knows “I’ve Got a Lovely Bunch of Coconuts,” there is no evidence that the characters within The Lion King even know humans exist.

The relationship between humans and the non-human characters is critical to understanding Pixar’s movies. There are certain rules in Pixar movies that make things far more interesting than the average Disney fairy tale. The first is that there is no magic. No problems are caused or fixed by the wave of a wand. Second, every Pixar film happens in the world of human beings (see why I excluded Cars? It’s ridiculous and out of character for Pixar). Even in films like a A Bug’s Life and Finding Nemo, in which humans only exist as backdrops for the action, humanity’s presence in the story is essential. The first two rules are pretty direct: the universe Pixar’s characters inhabit is non-magical and co-inhabited by humans.

In each Pixar film, at least one member of the team is human and at least one member is not human but possesses human levels of intelligence
In being ostracized, however, the non-human encounters a human. Remy, lost in the kitchen, meets Linguini. Kevin and Dug both partner up with Carl and Russell. The deviant behavior acts as a catalyst for the first interaction. Furthermore, the human is also deviant. Boo is not afraid of monsters. John and Mary (the two people who help WALL-E and EVE) get out of their hover chairs and look away from the screens. Carl escapes the old folks home with a balloon-house airship.
 A team is formed when the mutual outsiders recognize a shared sense of purpose. Human and non-human rebels alike seek out each other. In combining efforts, however, the team doubles their opposition, with the non-human and human normative majorities rejecting and condemning their behavior. Remy is criticized by his father and alienates his friends while Linguini loses the respect of the entire kitchen and is at risk of having the restaurant closed for health violations. There is a high cost for non-conformity.

The new is seen as dangerous and therefore feared. Pixar’s Human as Partner films emphasize that should a non-human intelligence arise, be it a rat or a robot or a monstrous alien, there will be no welcoming with arms wide open from either side.
 You can see where I’m going here. Particularly in WALL•E, Ratatouille and Up! there is no ambiguity about the reality of intelligence in the non-human characters. Each Pixar film asks us to accept one deviation from our reality. While it seems like the deviation is different in every case (e.g. monsters are real, robots can fall in love, fish have a sense of family, Kevin is a girl, a rat can cook), the simple fact is that Pixar only asks us to accept one idea over and over and over again:

That idea alone would suffice to show that Pixar films are all but propaganda for the concept of non-human personhood. But that is where the hidden message begins.
What makes these films so astonishing and the message so powerful is the story arc of the Human as Partner narrative. The story begins with a non-human living among a familiar setting. Be it WALL-E alone among the garbage, Remy with his massive extended family, or Sully and Mike Wazowski on their way to work, we are introduced to the hero in relative normalcy. Yet each of these characters deviate from their fellow non-humans. Remy wants to cook. WALL-E falls in love. In each case, the deviant non-human is ostracized. Dug is laughed at for his ineptitude and Sully and Mike are banished to live with the Abominable Agreeable Snowman.

Victory in the battle for the rights and respect from both groups will come from an act of exemplary personhood and humaneness by those who dare to break ranks with their kind. Thus, the Human as Partner story arc ends with the capitulation of those who refused to recognize the personhood of the non-human and a huge reward coming to those who accepted the non-humans as fellow persons. In Monsters Inc. Mike and Sully discover that laughter yields far more energy than screams. In Ratatouille Anton Ego has an epiphany and gives one of my favorite speeches of all time in response to a Proustian flashback he experiences after eating Remy’s cooking. In WALL•E none less than the human race is saved from the brink of self-induced-extinction. In short, the benefits for humanity are tremendous in every case where non-human persons are treated with respect

Buzz Lightyear’s character arc is about his becoming self-aware as a toy. These films represent nascent personhood among non-human entities. For the viewer, we begin to see how some animals and items we see as mindless may have inner lives of which we are unaware.
Humans as Partners stories, in which exceptional non-humans and exceptional humans share a moment of mutual recognition of personhood. The moment when Linguini realizes Remy is answering him is second only to the moment when Remy shows Ego around the kitchen – such beautiful transformations of the Other into the self. These films represent the first forays of non-human persons into seeking parity with human beings

The Incredibles, which turns the personhood equation on its head. Instead of portraying the struggle for non-humans to be accepted as human, The Incredibles shows how human enhancement, going beyond the human norm, will trigger equally strong reactions of revulsion and otherization. The message, however, is that the human traits we value have nothing to do with our physical powers but are instead based in our moral and emotional bonds. Beneficence and courage require far more humanity than raw might. The Incredibles teaches a striking lesson: human enhancement does not make you inhuman – the choices you make and the way you treat others determines how human you really are.

The message hidden inside Pixar’s magnificent films is this: humanity does not have a monopoly on personhood. In whatever form non- or super-human intelligence takes, it will need brave souls on both sides to defend what is right. If we can live up to this burden, humanity and the world we live in will be better for it
 As history moves forward and technology with it, these issues will no longer be the imaginings of films and fiction, but of politics and policy. But Pixar has settled the personhood debate before it arrives. By watching our favorite films, we have been taught that being human is not the same as being a person. We have been shown that new persons and forms of personhood can come from anywhere. Through Pixar, we have opened ourselves to a better future.

Alice in Wonderland

Alice in Wonderland, written by Lewis Carroll, has been part of many children’s lives and seemed like a simple fairy tale, but it goes much deeper than that.
“Alice is engaged in a romance quest for her own identity and growth, for some understanding of logic, rules, the games people play, authority, time, and death
The events that occur in the story actually have a direct correlation with how one grows and progresses through childhood and adolescence.

In the beginning of Alice in Wonderland, Alice daydreams and is unable to pay attention while her mother reads an advanced novel to her. This shows how child-like Alice’s mindset it. She then begins to piece together the perfect world of her own while her imagination runs wild. Later, Alice notices a white rabbit created by her imagination and sparks her curiosity. “Alice follows the rabbit because she is "burning with curiosity." Soon she finds things becoming "curiouser and curiouser,"
It is usually children who have the most curiosity; they are the ones who are always eager to learn more.
Later in the story, she is told the tale of the Curious Oysters by Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum which is about how curiosity can lead to terrible things. This bares a strong resemblance to how adults will often tell children to grow up, destroying a child’s sense of imagination and curiosity. From this deduction, we can assume that Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum symbolize parents and are trying to keep Alice in check.
 Later in the book, Alice gets in more trouble because of her curiosity. The white rabbit tells Alice to run into the house to quickly fetch his gloves. While searching for the gloves, she opens a cookie jar only to find a cookie with ‘Eat Me’ written on it. Without thinking twice, she consumes the cookie. “We view children as needing gentle guidance if they are to develop emotionally, intellectually, morally, even physically,”
It becomes apparent that she is still in her childhood stage and needs an adult figure to guide her. There are two very important things that this situation represents.
The first is, again, how curiosity gets one into trouble. She eats the cookie after being told the tale of The Curious Oysters. This shows how a child will disobey a parent after being told it is wrong. By doing this, she demonstrates Kohlberg’s first theory of moral development, stage one of the preconventional level, which states that “right is whatever avoids punishment or gains reward
Because there was no one around, she curiously took a cookie.
There are many occasions where Alice shows her true colors of child-like thinking and confusion. One specific example of this is when Alice first falls down the rabbit hole and is confronted by the door. When she gives herself “some good advice,” she says “For if one drinks much from a bottle marked poison, it is almost certain to disagree with one sooner or later,” the door responds “I beg your pardon,” with a confused look on his face. This occurrence shows the relationship between a young child and an adult because adults are often unable to comprehend the logic of a child. It isn’t until the formal operations stage, at age 11 or 12, that the child is able to “apply logical thought to abstract, verbal, and hypothetical situations,” . Obviously, Alice has not yet achieved this level of thinking.
Shortly after Alice enters Wonderland, she encounters something else that makes no sense to her. When she is extremely wet after being washed to shore, she listens to a dodo bird who tells her to run in a circle with everyone else in order to dry off while the water keeps engulfing them. What he is telling her to do makes no sense whatsoever but she continues to do it anyway. By blindly obeying the adult figure, she exposes her child-like ignorance.
On another occasion, later in the book, Alice is confronted with another confusing situation. “The White King is waiting for his messengers and asks Alice to look along the road to see if they are coming: “I see nobody on the road,” said Alice. “I only wish I had such eyes,” the King remarked in a fretful tone. “To be able to see Nobody! And at that distance too! Why, it's as much as I can do to see real people, by this light”,” . This somewhat exemplifies the preoperational stage which includes symbolic function; which means that one thing can stand for another . Apparently, the author is trying to get a point across that “nobody” can stand for a person as well as “nothing.” Again, this portrays the relationship between adults and children, but this time, it seems easier to comprehend for her and makes, surprisingly, more sense than Alice’s previous realization. This shows how she is mentally progressing towards the formal operations stage little by little.
As Alice progresses through her dream, she loses her sense of identity just as most people do when they hit adolescence. “When the Caterpillar asks Alice, "`Who are you,'" and Alice can barely stammer out a reply, "`I--hardly know'" then Carroll is exposing the quintessential vulnerability of the child whose growth and knowledge of self and the world vary so greatly from day to day that a sense of answerable identity becomes highly precarious if not evanescent,” . At this point in the story, Alice has reached an age where she has lost her identity, adolescence.
“In the industrialized world, children must find themselves on their own… they attempt to carve out an identity that is distinct from both the “younger” world being left behind and the “older” world that is still out of range,” . The caterpillar doesn’t ever give her direction and she is now forced to find out who she is on her own. “[She] is rarely aided by the creatures she meets. Whereas in a tale of Grimms or Andersen or John Ruskin, the protagonist's meeting with a helpful bird or beast would signal his or her charity toward the world or nature,” . This crucial evidence shows how, unlike other fairy tales, the story represents a child’s true progression through life, one that paints a picture of how real life functions and how one will have to figure things out on their own.
In sociology, there is a stage which is called transitional adulthood. This is a period where they “find themselves… young adults gradually ease into responsibilities… they become serious,” . By the end of the story, Alice learns to deal with her problems and gains sight of her identity. The queen, who loses her temper and wants to kill Alice, is Alice’s obstacle which finally helps her to become an adult. To leap over this obstacle, she reaches into her pocket to find a mushroom from earlier, eats it, and grows to an enormous size. This most likely represents how she is facing her fear and taking on responsibility or “growing up.”
Alice in Wonderland is a perfect, down-to-earth example of childhood through adolescence. Just as a child’s life is filled with good and bad choices, hers is too. As most do, Alice learns from her experiences and ultimately becomes more mature. Alice in Wonderland has many connections to how one grows and develops from childhood up through adolescence. Alice matures emotionally by how she thinks, how she deals with her problems, and how she perceives different situations, all of which are encompassed in the progression of a child.

Don't Believe Everything You Hear

             If you love something let it go,
“If it comes back to you, that's when you know," "All good things must come to an end." Are you serious? Why do you have to let go of something you love? If I love something I want as much of it as possible, right?  It seems that these phrases that have been adopted into our everyday lingo have suddenly become the answers to our problems. They've ultimately become the guidance for the weak-minded. As a stubborn person (I know there are more out there), I know that when I'm asking for advice or talking about "feelings," I don't need a phrase I saw stitched in needlepoint as a response. The main reason these phrases and saying bother me is because they try to make everyone's problems common. Every person, problem, situation is unique in its own dynamic, and to make it seem like this happens to everyone is unfair.

We can have "the best of both worlds," yet we "can't have our cake and eat it too?"

If "Actions speak louder than words," then what do you say to the people that "wear their hearts on their sleeves"? Or to the parents that instruct their kids to "Do as I say, not as I do"?

If "Every cloud has a silver lining," then how come "When it rains, it pours?"

If we're told "A person is known by the company he keeps," yet "not to judge a book by its cover," which one do we choose?

If "Oil and water don't mix," then why do "opposites attract"?

And if "All good things come to those who wait," then why be the early bird and get the worm?

What should we believe... ?
