The Hidden Story of Jesus
Theologian Dr Robert Beckford investigates amazing parallels to the Christ story in other faiths, some of them predating Christianity by thousands of years. The Hindu god, Krishna, was conceived by a virgin and his birth was attended by angels, wise men and shepherds. Buddha was also the result of a miraculous birth and visited by wise men bearing gifts. Beckford attempts to unravel the mystery of why there are so many versions of the Christ story across the world and asks which is the real one.

Maurice Béjart, January 1, 1927 - November 22, 2007
Maurice Béjart était un grand ami de mon oncle et ma tante. Je l'ai rencontré chez mon oncle en 1974, à l'époque où il était fraichement converti au Soufisme. Je fus fortement impressionnée par sa personnalité, bien qu'elle irritait beaucoup ma tante.
Repose en paix, Maurice.
Maurice Béjart was a close friend of my uncle and aunt. I met him at my uncle's home in 1974, at the time he had newly converted to Sufism. His personality impressed me enormously, even though it annoyed my aunt to a great degree.

Bob Thurman and Deepak Chopra - Buddhism and Vedanta
Received from a dear MySpace friend:
"In contrasting Buddhism and Vedanta (Hindu philosophy), Bob Thurman, a former Buddhist monk and Deepak Chopra find there are more comparisons than differences, and both agree that, more and more, scientists are showing that quantum physics and spirituality (awareness, consciousness, the soul) are the nature of true reality. A must-see."

"The award-winning environmentalist and broadcaster speaks of climate change as a slow motion catastrophe.
"He states that the media has to take responsibility for the fact that there is a notion that the issue of climate change is still controversial, even though the vast majority of climatologists in the world say something must be done."

"This clip is from a 6 gallon nano tank that is attached to my 300 gallon reef system. The arrow crab (Stenorhynchus seticornis), the firefish (Nemateleotris magnifica) and the Lettuce Sea Slug (Nudibranch), Green (Tridachia sp., Elysia sp.) are the stars of this performance."

Jason Watts - Cassiopeia Xamachana - Upside Down Jellyfish
"After modifing this 3 gallon tank to generate a circular flow (kreisel), I raised a culture of brine shrimp in it to see how well the design worked. I was very pleased with the result. later that week, while getting dry goods from the local fish shop, I saw a bowl shaped tank with Upside Down Jellyfish polyps and ephyras. These had come in to the shop as hitch hikers. These ephyra ended up killing the sea horses housed in the bowl. I asked the owner if she would part with a few. As I hoped to raise them through their life cycle.
"Adult jellies (medusae) reproduce sexually resulting in larva (or planula). After a period of drifting, the planula will settle on any and evey available surface becoming a stationary polyp that can clone itself. Each polyp, resembling aptasia anemonies, will begin to bud-off a small, free swimming medsua called a ephyra.
"Four little ephyras came home with me that night. Six more were to follow the next day. It's been three weeks now and all ten are with me and growing fast. The largest is now 7/8" across the bell."

Stars circling the supermassive black hole in the center of our galaxy
Max-Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics (MPE)
"An international team of astronomers, lead by researchers at the Max-Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics (MPE), has directly observed an otherwise normal star orbiting the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way Galaxy."
Stars around a Black Hole in the Milky Way
"Andrea Ghez et al of the UCLA Astronomy Department's Galactic Center Group published a paper in Nature in 2000 where they observe orbits of a dozen individual stars near the center of our galaxy. They used these observations to predict the position of a supermassive black hole there. This movie shows these observations, with their extrapolated orbits. The side of the initial box is about 0.8 parsecs (15 trillion miles), while the cross in the center is the position of the black hole."

Buffó Rigó Sándor & 100 Tagú Cigányzenekar
Sándor Buffó Rigó and the 100 Gypsy Yiolins play Brahms' 5th Hungarian Dance. I knew Sándor quite well, he used to come to play in Geneva quite frequently in the nineties. The best moments were when he and fellow Hungarian gypsy musicians would gather in a restaurant and play together after hours. They would then play authentic Gypsy music, and it was exquisitely beautiful.
The Queen of the Gypsies excerpts: Zobar (Табор уходит в небо, 1976)
Wherein you can see the type of Russian Gypsy 7-string guitar with an extra neck and strings, sort of a harp-guitar, which I have for decades longed to have.
The Denial Machine
"In the past few years, a hurricane has engulfed the debate about global warming. This scientific issue has become a rhetorical firestorm with science pitted against spin and inflammatory words on both sides."
The Monkey Prince
"Set in the mountains of Southern India, The Monkey Prince, tells the moving story of two monkeys - Bobo and Jeela. Born on the same day, in the same troop of monkeys, their lives take dramatically different paths.
"Growing up as the son of the troop's dominant female, Bobo enjoys a position at the top of the clan's hierarchy. He is favoured, groomed and protected by the other monkeys, including the group leader - Nine Fingers. Nine Fingers protects the clan from rival monkeys invading from other areas and always ensures order. Unlike Bobo, Jeela as a common female monkey, has no special privileges.
"When Nine Fingers is killed by his long-standing rival, Long Tooth, life for both Bobo and Jeela changes forever. Jeela finds her position in the clan elevated to second dominant female, when Long Tooth chooses her mother as his favourite. Other females in the clan are quick to show their respect to Jeela in order to maintain favour. Bobo, on the other hand is eventually shunned and banished from the clan altogether, his mother and sibling both slain.
"Bobo finds himself for the first time embarking on a life outside his mountain home, isolated and desperate for food. While, from the safety of the mountains, Jeela is left to ponder the fate of her childhood friend, Bobo.
"Somewhere between fact and fiction, “The Monkey Prince”, delves into the destiny of a remarkable monkey and reveals the family life of two herds by showing their territorial wars and their interaction with the human and natural worlds.
"The story takes place in the southern Indian State of Karnataka amidst the ruins of an ancient city inhabited by thousands of monkeys. It is also a legendary place for many Indians. The Ramayana, the great Indian epic, relates that Hanuman, the monkey god, was born there.
"The location inspired many writers including Rudyard Kipling for his “Jungle Book.”"

"Mom" and "Dad" NOT! Banned in California Schools
"Mom" and "Dad" NOT! Banned in California Schools
I first got wind of this crap from an email being passed around ubiquitously today. Because the story is so new it cannot yet be checked as a lie or an urban legend. Looking for the truth of the matter on my own I began Googling to find to my horror that there were five pages (I quit looking after 50) of results without a break using any mix of terms regarding this issue I could think of. All fifty linked to some of the most reactionary right wing websites and blogs on the net, and all of those linked back to the original story from WorldNewsDaily. WND.COM is one of the premier lunatic fringe right wing websites operated by Joesph Farah. Farah is best known for writing Rush Limbaugh's second best seller, "See I Told You So".CALIFORNIA Ban terms "Mom and Dad" From School. "Mom and Dad" as well as "husband and wife" effectively have been banned from California schools under a bill signed by Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, who with his signature also ordered public schools to allow boys to use girls restrooms and locker rooms, and vice versa, if they choose. WorldNewsDaily
This is an issue I have been boring everyone to death with for 20 years now. That the single most important dynamic in moving Independents and Moderates to vote Republican has been the issue of Political Correctness which defines Liberals and Democrats as Finger Waving Fascist Nazis. This has been the very essence of the The Rush Limbaugh Program for 20 years.
PC is also the main business of right wing pundit David Horowitz who runs a PC database of sorts, to discover, exaggerate and often lie about cases of PC which he then disseminates to conservative websites, blogs and talk radio hosts who in turn exaggerate and often lie about it. No propaganda campaign has ever worked this well in American history. It is why the GOP became transcendent and George W. Bush is President. For after all, voting for a known moron is a step up from voting for fascist Nazis.
The issue here is that Arnold Schwarzenegger today signed California bill #SB777 which adds "sexual orientation" to the state anti-discrimination statutes. There is also a clause that the minuscule amount of transgender students be allowed to use restrooms of their chosen gender. It also adds Islam and agnostic to define religious instruction. There is nothing about BANNING the words MOM, DAD, POP, MOTHER, FATHER, HUSBAND or WIFE. This is all bullshit, bullshit that has become the truth because Joesph Farah, millions of bogus emails and Google search results say so.
If you missed the point here, it's to try and get THIS article to break the solid string of bullshit Google results...

"Dogs used to intimidate prisoners. Troubling accounts of inadequate health care, medical emergencies ignored, even unexplained deaths. Immigrants held, sometimes without access to lawyers.
"That's what NPR reporter Daniel Zwerdling discovered when he investigated the treatment of immigrant detainees. But this shocking prison story wasn't from Abu Ghraib in Iraq or even Gitmo, it was from prisons right here at home.
"For more than ten years, U.S. law has stated that non-citizens -- both legal and illegal -- with criminal records must face deportation, even if they've already served time for their crime. While waiting for deportation, they are held in detention centers inside the U.S. Using sources "on the inside", Zwerdling revealed cases in which detainees in such centers were being abused by prison guards, attacked by dogs, and even dying while awaiting deportation.
