Whistle while you work
Work while you learn
Learn so someday perhaps you can understand
Understanding is a booby prize
Given to some just before enlightenment
Enlightenment transcends all boundaries and limitations
Something like(s) salvation
Something is a word
In the beginning was the word
And the word was with God
And the word was God
And probably still is
In every language
Is my guess

In a context of love
Heartbreaking can be something like breaking of bread
Only love can break a heart - for the good of everyone -
With no damage to anyone
This is the big break that is so special
That it does not actually cause a permanent break
To understand one must understand that
In the beginning was the Word
And the word was with God
and the word was God
and so it is still . . .
OJ didn’t yet achieve love as the central theme of his life
Tiger has an opportunity now
As do we all . . .

Sometimes it is helpful to think in a purely philosophical, psychological mode.
For example:
An agenda is a useful tool for understanding and advancing your own objective(s)
NEVER attempt to control any other person’s agenda – because ‘what is sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander’ - (I’m still in ‘that’ mode)
So anyways, lol, and all that jazz, also serves even if it only stands and waits
Eventually someone realizes that both can mean lots of love . . .

RIGHTEOUSNESS
+I+believe+this+is+your+first+experience,+Robert,+my+name+is+Ann+Coulter+.jpg)
i believe this is your first experience, my name is Anne Coulter...
Is as filthy rags
Lest any man should boast…
A resurrected life is the gift of God.
And can only be received by our own freedom of choice…
… and all things work together for good
to them that love the Word
until I understand the literal truth of ‘the hairs of your head are numbered’
I cannot truly know anything about perfection…
We speak about perfect
And we have our concept of perfect
But to know perfect
Is to die to self
And rise to walk in newness of life…
Love is

VIEWING THE CONCEPT OF THE MILLENNIUM,
IN LIGHT OF THE ALLEGORICAL LESSONS OF HOLY SCRIPTURE...
Could it be that the millennium is a loving opportunity for humankind to elect to escape the consequences of choosing to invoke it’s freedom of choice in order to ignorantly attempt to usurp the knowledge of good and evil from the infinite, despite finite humanity’s unwitting failure to recognize finite limitations which make the choice foolhardy, in retrospect.
Cataclysmic, AND Oh so Dramatic,
but unwise;
just the type of thing which mortals are wont to do, no matter what.

BOOK LOVER'S STORE IS HER GIFT TO THE WORLD
By Daphne Sashin Sentinel Staff Writer
July 4, 2004
LONGWOOD - In May, while other people worried about losing their jobs, Besa Kosova decided to quit hers and use her savings to start a charitable bookstore to help poor children around the world learn to read.
She knew it sounded crazy. At 32, Kosova was a single mother of two juggling a full-time job as an apartment leasing agent with classwork toward a second bachelor's degree, in creative writing, at the University of Central Florida.
But what is a life without dreams?
By last fall, unfulfilled in her day job and unable to sell her own novel, Kosova realized that she could still empower others with books — even if they weren't her own. She began collecting donated books, through postings on the Web site Craigslist and by word of mouth, and then selling them on Amazon.com with the goal of using the proceeds to build schools in impoverished countries.
"I had a revelation: Anybody can give a book. You don't have to be rich; you don't have to be high-status or donate money. Anyone can participate in literacy," said Kosova, who moved to the U.S. from Kosovo when she was 17. "When you give a child a book, they can change the future. They can change the universe."
When the Longwood store opened June 18, Kosova had already sold enough books online to raise $3,500 — half the cost of building a school for 300 rural children in India, which has a third of the world's illiterate population. Child Literacy Inc., a New York nonprofit, matched her contribution and allowed her to operate under its nonprofit status while she applies for her own.
"In the rural parts of India, things are very cheap, and the state of infrastructure for education is really bad," said Anupam Satyasheel, a New York banker and a founder of Child Literacy. "You could have a population of 50,000 or 100,000 children who would like to go to school but don't have a school in the neighborhood. We already had the land, so it was very feasible to build a school that could educate 300 children" with $7,000.
For her next project, Kosova is raising about $10,000 to build a school with a library and housing for girls in another rural part of India. In addition to books, she is collecting backpacks and school supplies for low-income families close to home.
The My One School store, on South Ronald Reagan Boulevard near State Road 434, offers new and used books, some movies and small gift items. Prices range from a couple of hundred dollars for new textbooks to whatever a customer wants to pay for review copies from publishers.
Kosova spent $20,000 of her own money to renovate the small concrete building into a homey store with a dining table for meetings, a children's alcove, free wireless Internet access, and complimentary coffee and tea. She decorated the store with reading-related artwork that she collected through the years at yard sales and discount stores, such as a painting in the bathroom of Santa Claus reading a newspaper. The walls of the children's section carry her own handprints in bright colors and a collage of pages from damaged children's books.
Kosova wants to use the space for children's reading hours, book clubs and local-author nights, as a way to involve the community in her cause.
The Goodwill business model — selling donated items to fund a charity — has proved successful, Satyasheel said. Kosova is keeping her overhead costs low by not collecting a salary and relying on friends, such as fellow book lover Terri Avellone, to staff the store as volunteers. Satyasheel envisions Kosova managing several stores and establishing a warehouse to store more books.
Kosova estimates her savings will last two years. In the meantime, she hopes to sell her novel.
"I have to give my dream a chance," Kosova said. "The economy is bad, but what if I'm not here tomorrow? Maybe this is my purpose."

MILLINNEUM IN A NUTSHELL – so to speak
What is Premillennial Dispensationalism?
Beliefs about the end of the world come out of a complex system of biblical interpretation known as dispensationalism, which is a version of premillennialism (the belief that Christ will return before setting up his millennial kingdom). Dispensationalism divides up the Bible and human history into various eras or dispensations, based on how God deals with humanity. The system detected two distinct divine plans, one for an "earthly" people (Israel) and the other for a "heavenly" people (the church). The key to this entire prophetic plan is the refounding of Israel as a nation state in Palestine.
There is no consensus in the Evangelical community on eschatology, the theology of the "last things." There are many Evangelicals, however, that do not accept Premillennial Dispensationalism.
Books like Daniel and Revelation were written in times of persecution and were purposely opaque to those outside of the communities that generated them. Much of their imagery and theology is connected more to ancient texts left outside the biblical canon than the books contained in the Bible. Second, followers of PD seem never to be satisfied with Christ's own warning that "No one knows the day or hour." Hal Lindsey has been embarrassed by the need to "adjust" his Last Day predictions made in The Late Great Planet Earth. In his book, he predicted that the end would come within a generation (usually 40 years) of the founding of Israel: 1948. Now prophecy proponents begin the timetable at the Israeli capture of east Jerusalem in 1967.
For a hundred and fifty years, some Christian dispensationalists have been predicting the following:
After the Jews are regathered in the Holy Land, human civilization will begin to unravel. Morals will decline, families will break apart, crime and anarchy will increase. Wars, political and economic unrest, natural disasters, unstoppable epidemics, shifts in weather patterns, and other calamities will increase suffering and despair. Organized Christianity will experience apostasy; religious leaders will abandon historic beliefs and behavioral standards and openly embrace heresy and immorality. Despite massive efforts to stop civilization's demise, nothing can stop its downward slide.
After the rapture of the church, a charismatic leader will gain a following by promising peace and security. This Antichrist heads up a ten-nation confederacy in western Europe. Unaware of Antichrist's true identity, Israel will sign a treaty with him to guarantee its security, then rebuild its temple in Jerusalem. After three and a half years, Antichrist will break the treaty, declare himself to be God, and persecute all who refuse to worship him and receive his mark on their foreheads. A False Prophet, a seductive religious leader, who will use miraculous powers and repressive measures to force compliance, will help antichrist. For three and a half years, a remnant of God's people who were converted after the Rapture (Rev. 7:4) will suffer horrible persecution in the Great Tribulation.
Despite Antichrist's power, other nations will rise in opposition. Some time after Antichrist betrays Israel, a northern confederation of nations under Russian control will join with a southern confederacy to launch a devastating double attack against Israel. This move will prompt the intervention of Antichrist's armies from the west and a 200-million-man army under the "kings of the east." As armies from east and west converge on Israel, the Russian confederates will try to destroy Israel; but God will intervene to destroy them.
With the northern confederacy annihilated, the forces of Antichrist and the "kings of the east" will do battle at Armageddon, a valley northwest of Jerusalem. While the battle rages, Jesus will return, wipe out the surviving armies, subdue Antichrist, and set up his millennial kingdom. Finally, the surviving Jews will accept Jesus as their Messiah. For a thousand years, King Jesus will rule the world from Jerusalem, while Jewish priests perform sacrifices in the restored temple. In the end, God will fulfill all the promises to Israel. The redemptive plan will be complete.
Or, perhaps this is an allegorical finite assemblage and presentation, which can be found on the Internet…

A DONATION TO THE CREATIVE WORLD - At Large
IDEAS
(1) For a working draft of a Pilot for a new TV series
WORKING TITLE – Peter Falk Walks
Based on a news story that Peter Falk has Alzheimer’s Disease and…
The similarity between his character Peter Falk as Colombo and the name Columbus (who discovered America) -who people said was going to fall off the edge of the earth when he set sail to discover America.
(2) The working title plays on the popular beliefs about a person who has Alzheimer’s vs. the Realities of Discovery
(3) Note the Wordiness Parallel between the working title and the Biblical Quote –'JESUS WEPT'.
And the Marlborough Country slogans 'Bullshit Talks', and 'A Real Man Walks The Walk'
Should you wish to Compensate (or otherwise contact) me Now, or in the Future, I am:

PARADIGM SHIFT
At the midpoint of the year it is clear that there is paradigm shift in progress for the good of the planet.
Finally, women are coming to the fore as virtuous, valuable, virgins, and post virgins.
Responsibility is at the forefront of freedom of the press in this country, and is supported by the majority of its citizens, openly.
Politics is playing out on the world stage as a reality show in which politicians are seen as full of shenanigans to make themselves rich, but we all hope that there will be some responsible action and decision-making along the way.
Or we throw the bums OUT!
ENTER – Entertainment, as never before!
Rafael Nadal charms the planet as a combination sports hero, and human example for everyone. Talk about a role model without role-play! He now has his own asteroid!
TIME Magazine focuses on the failure of marriage as an institution.
It seems that, except for dedicated parents, marriage is an institution for the blind, because if you can’t hear the truth you won’t hear the truth.
Religion remains in a class by itself – and school is far (from) out.

be still and know that I AM
in as much as you have done it unto the least – you have done it unto Me…
as comparisons are odious – so reward and punishment are odious –
we can learn from anything
and everyone
when our humility is sufficient
THE LESSON IS ALWAYS THERE

THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS THINKING TO YOURSELF
DID YOU EVER TAKE A DUMP
Take a look
and think to yourself
WHAT IS THAT
and where did it come from?

PERFECTION IS A FUNCTION OF INFINITE
A finite being cannot be perfect.
There is no such thing as nonsense.
It is just a lack of understanding.
Channeling is a process of engaging a different part of the mind.

LANGUAGE IS A FUNCTION OF THE WORD
Spaced out teens in California coined the phrase ‘gag me with a spoon’ to express to their erstwhile counterparts that the speaker is actually all emo even if the observers are not aware enough to ‘get it’ so in a show of camaraderie the speaker offers to provide physical proof with a little help from friends.
2009 IS THE YEAR THAT THE COURSE OF HISTORY CHANGED
The term "participatory culture" describes the new kinds of social and creative activities which have emerged in a 'Internetworked' Society.
A participatory culture is a culture with relatively low barriers to artistic expression and civic engagement, strong support for creating and sharing one's creations, and some type of informal mentorship whereby what is known by the most experienced is passed along to novices.
A participatory culture is also one in which members believe their contributions matter, and feel some degree of social connection with one another.
Participatory culture shifts the focus of literacy from one of individual expression to one of community involvement.

PERCEPTION and PERSPECTIVE LIVE FROM HONOLULU It’s Saturday Night
The Atomic Bomb is based on the principle of fission, or breaking apart of matter releases huge energy
The Hydrogen Bomb is based on the principle of fusion, or bringing together and joining atoms of matter releases Gigantic energy
What we know of precision is finite precision
The only example of infinite precision that we know is THE UNIVERSE

INTRICATE MIND
The mind is capable of being as intricate or as simple as required.
Some make no distinction between - quid pro quo, tit for tat, equal and opposite reaction, and, when push comes to shove – seeing them as synonymous. Others see each one as distinctive and different from all the others.
The mind of a genius can love simplicity more than anything, or the mind of a dysfunctional misfit can be enthralled by complexity.
Many different factors are present in each different equation/situation in the mind i.e. context, environment, DNA, age, sex, time of day, etc ad in fin i tum ---
We each realize, at some level, that our own mind is subjective and easily influenced by all manner of variables.
When it comes to our perception of the mind and thinking of another; we expect/assume/demand/require -precision and consistency –in line with our own mind and thinking, and take it for granted that communication requires this continuity of thought.
A lawyer friend of mine is wont to make such a statement and follow it immediately by the rhetorical question “Fair enough?” Without pausing for any reply before proceeding to his next sentence.
Polite English SOCIETY would call that “BALDERDASH!”

AS ONE GOES THROUGH LIFE THE MEMORIES THAT ARE ‘TAGGED’ AS SIGNIFICANT REMAIN WITH YOU SO LONG AS YOUR BRAIN IS ALIVE
In extreme cases the form of a memory is subject to being changed by shock or other types of therapy.
DIFFERENCES ARE REALITY BASED – DISTINCTIONS ARE THOUGHT BASED
The difference between the rule of law and the spirit of aloha is that the first comes from senses of necessity and lack,
While the second comes from senses of abundance & generosity…

ZEN and the art of maintenance in a finite world
Mistakes can usually be fixed.
Sin, however, is a violation of infinite rule, and can therefore only be forgiven by the Infinite Power of Divine Being.
In our finite world humankind relies on a rule of law to keep order, based on finite laws, imposed by mankind in various forms and at various venues in time and space, throughout the finite world.
It is not a love of money that is at the root of evil;
a love of money distorts perception, perspective, and rational thought, causing an inability to distinguish good from evil.
In the realm of the finite there is no basis for knowing the difference between good and evil.
A finite being cannot digest the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
Any attempt at ingesting and digesting into meaningful nutrition that Infinite Fruit causes never-ending convulsions in the finite system.

COMMENT on How to Pick-Up Women: Encyclopedia Introduction
Posted AT THE HOW TO PICK UP WOMEN SITE (not by me) on June 14, 2009:
Any man who is a man shouldn't bother reading the entire ebook. Real men (and some women) pick up after the dog; they pick up trash; but they don't pick up women--never mind the fat jokes!
Shallow minds think of japes that ridicule the way others look. As for the maroons who wrote this tripe, you really should consider a lobectomy. Trust me, you'd only sound half as stupid
