Backstreet Boys – 'Quit Playing Games (With My Heart)'
Song: 'Quit Playing Games (With My Heart)'
Artist: Backstreet Boys
Writers: Max Martin, Herbie Crichlow
Producers: Max Martin, Kristian Lundin
Quintessential Max moment: That big sonic thud that happens at 3:10, ushering in the chorus
Video synopsis: Five guys in a warehouse dripping with water and showing off their stomachs
The greatest myth about the music industry is the idea that record labels know best. Back in 1996, some bozo at Virgin decided that 'Wannabe' wasn't going to be the Spice Girls first single because it was too risky. Then some other bozo decided to send it off to America to be turned into an awful R&B single. THEN some OTHER bozo decided the video wasn't good enough and that it needed to be re-shot for America. Thankfully, at every step of the way, the Spice Girls held their ground and got what they wanted. In that case it turned out quite well really.
Actually in this case it turned out pretty well too. As previously explained, the Backstreet Boys' release history in America is a little complicated, exasperated by the fact that they launched in Europe first and it took America longer to catch on. Anyway, when it came time to release the international version of their self-titled debut the label decided they didn't want to lead with 'Quit Playing Games (With My Heart)' – a hit across Europe already – but instead go with the equally parentheses-friendly, 'If You Want It (To Be Good Girl)'. The only problem was that the band thought the song was the worst thing they'd ever done (to be fair, it's pretty terrible).
So in the end the 'boys' got their way and 'Quit Playing…' was not only the lead single but ended up being their highest-charting US hit, only kept from the Number One spot by Puff Daddy's 'Mo Money Mo Problems' (TUNE) and then Mariah Carey's 'Honey' (TUNE). Even better was the fact that in the US the song was promoted via radio rather than through MTV etc, so the embarrassing video – featuring earrings, rain-sodden shirts and longing looks at burgeoning six packs – was mostly unseen 'across the pond'.
'Quit Playing Games (With My Heart)' is quite an interesting one in terms of how it was created. Apparently the song wasn't originally written with the band in mind so they were quite thankful when Max handed it to them. Mind you, not thankful enough for all of them to skip lunch to record it, with Brian and Kevin handling most of the vocals because the pair wanted to get it done while the others were scoffing their faces. The early versions of the song actually had Brian singing both the first and second verses, with Max having to fly to London in September 1996 to record Nick singing the second verse. It's that latter version that was released as a single and appeared on later pressings of the album. (There's also a version in Italian sung by Kevin and Howie because, well, why not eh).
Like all of the Backstreet Boys' ballads, 'Quit Playing…' has a lovely melodic lilt to it. It's downright pretty in places, especially in that little musical interlude after AJ's typically great middle eight bit. The chorus itself is interesting too because the actual top line bit is incredibly simple – just "my heart" repeated a couple of times basically – but then the song's title is repeated constantly in the distance like a mantra. It also ushered in that sort of white funk beat that would underpin all of their ballads, especially on 'I Want It That Way', which 'Quit Playing…' feels like a test run for in a lot of ways.

Our philosophy is to provide high-quality, timely accounting and consulting services to our clients. We regard our relationship with clients as a partnership in the true sense of the word, that is, a relationship whereby both parties benefit significantly from their association.
Jones Simkins is the largest local CPA firm in Logan and one of the largest CPA firms in Utah. The size of our firm is important to our clients for two reasons. First, as a local firm we are not too large, and therefore, the partners are the client's main contact. This allows the partner to have an in-depth knowledge of client's businesses and needs. Second, our firm is large enough to provide specialists in several disciplines including, but not limited to, accounting, auditing, corporate income tax, multi-state income tax, strategic tax planning, estate tax planning, and management advisory services (including internal controls and process management). In addition, our partners and professional staff have extensive knowledge of QuickBooks and other accounting software packages. QuickBooks is the primary software package used in the bookkeeping segment of our business and we consult extensively with clients and non-clients regarding the functions and operations of QuickBooks.
The cornerstone of our firm is knowledgeable people providing quality, timely services. We devote significant resources to training our people. All of our professionals have access to up-to-date and complete technical information (accounting and tax). We are committed to providing our professionals with computer technology tools to allow them to serve the client in the most efficient manner possible.

We spend days, months, even years looking for answers. People who find the answer are celebrated as geniuses, prophets and inventors. The world beats a path to their mousetrap. In contrast, we don't spend much effort looking for questions. That the outcome of a long investigation could be a question rather than an answer seems absurd. From five years ago:
there are two ways of being: the answer way and the question way. The answer way wants certainty, though it will settle for closure when it can't get certainty.....
The question way has much less prestige. There are no patents for questions. There are no named professorships at Harvard for questions....
To the questioner, an answer is just a question's way of asking another question.
This essay comes after 30 months of question seeking or what I call presearch. Towards the beginning of that journey, on February 26th, 2018 I wrote with some arrogance:
On January 1st, I took on the minor ambition of reimagining our planetary condition as my new year's resolution....We are entering an era of existential politics, where the current obsessions of government such as taxes are going to be replaced by the elemental obsessions of air, water, food & climate.
Should have added viruses to the elemental obsessions.

A few months later:
We need a term that reflects the earth straddling impact of humans. It also has to be a term that reflects the agency of the various beings who live on this planet and finally, the institutions we want to create to negotiate this new order......I believe that term is Geocracy.
I am confident that Geocracy is the correct setting for existential politics, just as democracy is the right setting for representative politics. But is there a larger entity for which it's the right setting?
Of course, there is. Geocracy is a way of ordering terrestrial existence; understanding the latter should give us some clues.

Terrestrial Life
The only life we know is terrestrial. It's what we take for granted: the world beneath our feet. Science says that rocks and stones are mostly empty space, but that doesn't persuade me into jumping off the cliff. Science also tells us we are an inconsequential species on one planet out of trillions. Not the most exalted presence. But technology tells us we are making the earth great again and again.
We are the rulers of the Anthropocene after all.
Whether we live in harmony with the trees and the birds or we slash and slay them, the only reality we know in our bones is terrestrial reality. Therefore the question arises: how to understand this terrestrial reality?
Mind and Society
The earth has many more beings besides the human, but one mark of the Anthropocene is how small a role these beings play in our imagination of the good life. How many of us consider the tree in front of the bedroom window the reason why life's worth living? For us, terrestrial life revolves around two pillars of the human world:
One focusing on the individual and the second on the collective. The discipline most associated with the mind is psychology, which is primarily an investigation of the empirical human mind: how we think, perceive, feel and act in the world.
It's a relatively new discipline, starting in Germany in the late nineteenth century though its fair to say that Freud's work catapulted psychology into the public eye as a discipline that informs life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
At least in the West.

A Minor Rant
And since the western style of thinking is the one we are conditioned to act upon, I might as well start with its division of labor.
Even if you believe ancient Indians had the bestest ideas about the mind and even if you're true in saying so, your life in the 21st century is derived from the Western way of life.
In fact, every time someone says 'Indian Psychology' is better than 'Western Psychology' they're already accepting the London frame. Resisting that imperial frame will take more than stamping 'Made in India' on a bottle of whisky.
End of rant.
Let's now look at how psychology carves up the mind.
Four Psychological Minds
Psychology is a rich field with distinct ways of using the term 'mind.' While those meanings are related, they offer distinct pathways to elaboration and research. Let me name a few minds here:
The healthy mind.
The mind in the brain
The private mind
The meditative mind
A brief discussion of all four minds below
M1: The Healthy Mind
Most of us prefers happiness to sadness and pleasure to pain. We have created large and powerful institutions designed to boost our spirits and help us make sense of finite existence in a sometimes unforgiving world.
As parents and caregivers, we take particular note of the feelings and well being of children.
Which is to say that whether we use the term 'mind' to gauge our own feelings of pleasure and pain or not, it has an ongoing role in our lives through the assessment of our state of being. When we find ourselves chronically incapable of finding balance, we seek advice and care, whether from a guru or from a pill.
M2: The Mind in the Brain
Digging deeper into happiness and its causes quickly leads to the neurochemical and neurological origins of feelings. We now know that the subjective aspects of experience have a correlate in the brain and scientists are discovering ever more subtle ways in which mental phenomena have a basis in brain networks.
In short, when scientists talk about the mind, they increasingly do so in the context of the brain. Increasingly, questions of mental health are also being translated into pharmacological interventions.
M3: The Private Mind
The private mind is the mind of subjective experience. Toothache makes it hard for me to conduct my life but it doesn't affect other people at all - they continue with their lives as if nothing happened. In contrast, an earthquake affects us all the same.
What's the difference between a toothache and an earthquake?
One powerful account says that all mental feelings, perceptions and thoughts have an irreducible 'subjective' component that's only available to me and no one else. Which then poses a deep question: how does subjectivity arise in a world of objects? How do electrical impulses in the brain lead to the perception of pain and pleasure?
M4: The Meditative Mind
Digging one step deeper into private experience, we can ask what happens when people find themselves in exceptional mental states: in dreams, by ingesting or inhaling drugs, or most systematically, through deep meditative experience. There's a very basic question: "what's more fundamental?"
Every day experience of which meditative experience is a refinement OR
Meditative experience of which everyday experience is a pale reflection.
Both have their votaries. By analogy, we could ask the same questions when it comes to the physical world: "what's more fundamental?"
The every day world of which the universe of stars and atoms is a refinement OR
The subatomic and cosmic universe of which the everyday world is a pale reflection.
Here, we have come to a definite conclusion when it comes to the objective, physical realm: the reality exposed by precise and subtle experiments is more fundamental than the reality of the everyday physical world.
Mind as Psychology
In short, the dominant understanding of the mind lies within 'psychology,' which is increasingly being integrated within neuroscience with applications in mental health. There's also the ongoing relationship with computing and artificial intelligence. If I were to summarize the prevailing dogma in three lines, it would go as follows:
The mind is attached to an individual, whose mental capacities and events are
Grounded in firings of neural networks in the brain that in turn are
Implementations of computational processes
In short: we are computers running on neural hardware housed in a human body.
That takes care of the mind, but what about the world? No one, whether ancient or modern, believes the everyday world is contained in the everyday mind. They may think an expanded mind, say, the mind of cosmic consciousness, swallows the world. Or an expanded world, say, the realm of neurons and synapses, swallows the mind. But absolutely no one thinks the everyday mind as it is swallows the everyday world.
Markets aren't emotions, however irrational the exuberance.
If the mind isn't the world, then much of the world is left when we subtract the mind. How do we capture what's left? That's where society comes in.

Human Collectivity
What's missing in all these minds is a sense of shared reality, of collective experience. Whether we look at the brain or at private experience, the focus of investigation is the individual. There are traditions of social and cultural psychology that correct for the focus on the individual, but they typically look at how an individuals thoughts, beliefs, emotions etc are influenced by the social environment around them.
For example, that's one way of answering the question: 'what's the Indian mind?' by asking if there are patterns of thought and belief that arise systematically by being born and brought up in an Indian family.
Shared Reality
But there's a very different idea of reality missed in all of these approaches: that we live in a shared world and experience it as such. Perhaps God, i.e., the one without a second, would have no experience but self-experience, but for the rest of us, to open our eyes is to reveal a world outside ourselves. The isolated individual is a useful abstraction for some purposes, but a brain or mind suspended in a featureless matrix squirts away what's most important about existence.
Consider that most insistent of worries: that I too will die one day.
If my death means the death of the universe, then I might feel the satisfaction of a cosmic suicide bomber, that I am taking all of existence with me. Alas, the world goes on as I fade away. And I know that. What the Buddha calls 'dukkha' - the inevitable suffering of all existence - is precisely because we are all embedded in the wheel of collective existence ('samsara' as the ancients called it). We can't escape that knowledge, for it reappears even in the depths of the mind, in the deepest sleep, in the height of meditation. What to do?
I will bracket that existential dilemma for it's taking us away from a model of collective existence that works at an everyday level: society.
It's got its downsides: society typically means only other human beings, not heterogeneous collectives of humans, animals, plants and things. Even when we generalize the term, and say 'Monkey Society' or 'Dolphin Society,' we mean collections of monkeys and dolphins alone.
Why this assumption of homogeneity?
The ideal society would be a Shivji ki Baraat, i.e, the wedding procession of the God Shiva, in which there are beings of all kinds: gods, animals, demons and every other thing that exists.
Until then, we will have to content with human society. Society helps us manage many of the complexities of collective existence: in one umbrella, it brings together governments, parliaments, markets, taxes and other paraphernalia.
So what's the problem with society? There are at least two - one because of the moment we find ourselves and the second how it's always been.
The sub-individual is as important today as the supra-individual. When Facebook can target my emotions with precision, I am no longer an individual in its eyes. Similarly, if we use personalized gut bacteria to regulate emotions, the reach of the pharmaceutical industry extends to my intestines. Social institutions such as companies no longer deal with me as an individual but as an 'internal collective,' which is another way of saying that a theory of collectives that starts with individuals isn't fine-grained enough.
Societies aren't static: they change all the time. New ideas influence how people behave. New technologies influence how they travel and communicate with each other. Once a country builds railroads, it becomes possible to buy your goods from across the country rather than from my neighbors. This shift is fundamentally cognitive: i.e., new possibilities open up as a result of changes in the material system. To use tortured language: our world is full of actual materialities and possible materialities. Only a cognitive approach makes sense of both the actual and the possible at once.
Enter Cosiety
Finally, after a meandering journey, we have arrived at a conceptual design brief:
Invent a term to describe collectivity that:
Runs from the sub-individual to the global, exhibits cognitive and social features
Exhibits cognitive and social features,
Accommodates institutions
That, my friend, is cosiety.
And as I have argued in recent essays (here, here), cosiety is the right setting even for the most adamantly societal structures such as caste. If I was rewriting the previous 30 months from scratch, I would start with cosiety, make my way into geocracy and planetary politics and take a bow 🙇🏽♂. Of course, that still doesn't tell us what cosiety is, just that whatever it might be is lurking behind the bushes. Is it an elephant? A lion? Superbat? Don't know, but there's something out there.
I leave you with the question I have been seeking for 30 months:
What is Cosiety?

Burn injuries can be devastating, especially when the consequences cause permanent disfigurement. Burn injury treatments can result in costly and often painful skin grafting and other treatments, and individuals also experience loss of income and medical monitoring.
If you have suffered a Louisiana burn injury which was caused by someone else's negligence, contact a Houma burn injury lawyer to review your situation and examine the extent of your medical condition. An experienced injury attorney can help you make an informed decision about which legal options make the most sense for you and your family.
Burn injuries generally fall into three categories – first degree burns, second-degree burns, and third-degree burns. First degree burns are the least serious and generally result in reddened skin, but no blistering. Second degree burns generally result in somewhat thickened skin and blisters. Third-degree burns are the most severe and generally result in the overall thickening of skin in the affected area which becomes white in color.
Depending on the severity of the burn and other factors such as age, physical condition, and the facts and circumstances surrounding the injury, burn victims may be treated with creams, ointments, bandages, skin grafts, and a much more. It may be critical to speak with a Houma burn injury lawyer to determine the best treatment for potential clients.
Chemical burns, which result from strongly acidic or alkali substances. These generally require special care to minimize injuries.
Electrical burns, which can result from exposure to electricity including overhead electrical wires, electrical sockets, and anything which conducts electricity.
Thermal burns occur from explosions, flames, and exposure to hot liquids or materials like glass, wood, metal, or coal.
Radiological burns, likely the most uncommon form of burns, result from exposure to radiation and may require decontamination.
Burn injuries can have long term effects and place significant financial and emotional burden on injured victims and their families. A Houma burn injury lawyer can help to make sure victims get the compensation they deserve.
If you have suffered a burn injury due to someone else's negligence, contact an experienced Houma burn injury lawyer. Since burn injuries tend to involve significant medical costs, it is highly likely that insurance companies will be representing alleged negligent parties. It is important to keep in mind that many insurers have teams of attorneys whose only job is to save insurers money. Make sure you have someone in your corner who is looking out for your best interests. Louisiana's statute of limitations for filing a personal injury lawsuit is one of the shortest in the nation – generally, only one year from the date of the accident – and failing to meet that deadline may bar you from recovery.


The left is going all out against Brett Kavanaugh.
They are pulling out all the stops to block his confirmation.
But President Trump is furious and said the two words that changed everything.
Judge Brett Kavanaugh is facing historic opposition.
Just as he was in his final steps to join the Supreme Court, the left sprang into action.
An 11th hour accusation of sexual misconduct popped up.
He hasn't faced anything like this throughout his long and successful career.
And it wasn't just one accusation.
Days after his first accusation, another came out.
And like clock-work, then a third.
The accusations span from his high school years to his time in college.
However, there is no proof to back the claims.
Any one of these accusations dropping earlier in his life would have derailed his career, but all three women waited until his nomination to the Supreme Court.
That's why many doubt their story.
The most prominent figure in the United States is one of the doubters.
President Donald Trump, who nominated Kavanaugh, came to his defense and made it clear that he knows Judge Kavanaugh to be a good man.
He also knows the Democrats are deceitful.
So he held back nothing in a press conference on the accusations against Kavanaugh.
"They know it's a big, fat con job," President Trump stated.
The media was stunned at his statement.
But the American people aren't.
President Trump speaks his mind, which is why so many people support him.
Instead of talking around the accusations, he made what he believes clear immediately.
He also made the implications for the attacks against Kavanaugh.
President Trump points to the chilling effect that can come from these kinds of accusations.
Talking about his record with judicial nominees, Trump touted his success.
He has 145 federal judges he will be picking in the coming weeks.
And his concern is that many qualified candidates will be nervous because of the claims made against Kavanaugh.
They see just how low the Democrats are going with Kavanaugh and may decline in order to avoid a similar fate.
Despite no proof to back up the claims of sexual assault, the left has convicted Kavanaugh in the court of public opinion.
Even if most Americans are on his side, there will forever be a large segment of the population who see him as a sexual predator.
Many qualified judges may not be willing to risk the same outcome.
So it's a very dangerous strategy for that reason.
Do you think Judge Kavanaugh is guilty of sexual assault?

Udaipur has many tourist places to visit, there are very nice sightseeing, attractions in Udaipur which are must see in Udaipur. Details on Udaipur city and tourist places.Some of these are :
Lake Palace: The Lake Palace was built in 1743-1746. It is made of marble and is situated on Jag Niwas island in Lake Pichola. It was originally built as a royal summer palace, but is now a luxury 5 Star hotel, operating under the "Taj Hotels Resorts and Palaces" banner.
City Palace: Standing on the east bank of Lake Pichola is a massive series of palaces built at different times from 1559. The balconies of the palace provide panoramic views of the "Jag Niwas.They also have views of Jag Mandir on one side and the city of Udaipur on the other. Its main entrance is through the triple-arched gate – the Tripolia, built in 1725. The way now leads to a series of courtyards, overlapping parations, terraces, corridors and gardens. There is a Suraj Gokhda, where the maharanas of Mewar presented themselves in the times of trouble to the people to restore confidence.
The Mor-chowk (Peacock courtyard):, gets its name from the mosaics in glass decorating its walls. The chini chitrashala is noteworthy while a series of wall paintings of Krishna are on display in Bhim Vilas. There are numerous other palaces such as Dilkhush mahal, Sheesh mahal, Moti mahal and Krishna vilas – in memory of a princess of striking beauty who poisoned herself to avert a bloody battle for her hand by rival princes. Now the palace contains many antique articles, paintings, decorative furniture and utensils and attracts thousands of visitors every day.
Fateh Sagar Lake: Fateh Sagar Lake is situated in the north of Lake Picholas. It was originally built by Maharana Jai Singh in the year 1678 AD, but later on reconstructed and extended by Maharana Fateh Singh after much destruction was caused by heavy rains. In 1993-1994, the water vanished from the lake, but in 2005-2006, the lake regained its water.
Lake Pichola: Lake Pichola has two islands, Jag Niwas and the Jag Mandir. This lake is 4 km long and 3 km wide, originally built by Maharana Udai Singh II. There are many ghats, like the bathing and washing ghats, which can be approached through boats from the City Palace of Udaipur (Bansi Ghat). In the heart of the lake the Lake Palace stands, which is now converted into a heritage palace hotel. The lake remains fairly shallow even during heavy rains, and gets dry easily in times of severe drought.
Gulab Bagh and Zoo: A rose garden laid out by Maharaja Sajjan Singh is situated near the palace on the east side of Lake Pichhola. A library in the garden has a collection of ancient handwritten manuscripts and books. Some of the part of the Satyarth Prakash have been written in this library. Styarth Prakash stup is situated in Gulab Bagh. Within the garden, there is a zoo with tigers, leopards, Chinkara gazelle, birds, and many wild animals. Children can enjoy mini train, track ofNehru Garden on an island in Fatah Sagar Lake which covers the main part of the garden and the zoo.
Sahelion ki Bari: Maharana Sangram Singh built this Garden in the mid-18th century. The 'Garden of the Maidens' brings to mind the lifestyle of the ladies of the court. These delightful gardens reflect their discreet and impeccable tastes. There are four pools with dainty kiosks. All around are flowerbeds, lawns, pools and fountains protected by a series of walls and trees offering plenty of shade. The fountains of the Sahelion ki Bari function solely by water pressure and no pumps are used. The garden has a lotus pool and a sitting room decorated with paintings and glass mosaic. The whole ambience is flavored by reminiscence of those beautiful belles enjoying themselves in lavish environs.
Sajjangarh Palace: Monsoon Palace or Sajjangarh Palace is a hilltop palace located at Bansdara Mountain peak at about 944 mtr above sea level. Maharana Sajjan Singh constructed it in 1883 for using it as summer retreat for Mewar Kings. Another big ppose for its construction is to watch the progress of Monsoon clouds. This Monsoon Palace is situated at such an altitude that it presents magnificent views of Lake Pichola, Aravalli mountains and surrounding countryside. Visitors also love the sunset of Sajjangarh Palace. There is also Sajjangarh Wildlife Sanctuary which encircles the palace. Now it is a forest department property and open for visitors.
Moti Magri: Moti Magri is one of the interesting tourist attractions of Udaipur, the city of dawn. You will see a statue of Maharana Pratap on the top of the Moti Magri Udaipur. Moti Magri or the Pearl Hill is a beautiful hill from where you can enjoy the bird-eye view of the Fateh Sagar Lake. The statue of erstwhile Rajput ruler Maharana Pratap Singh with his horse Chetak or Pratap Memorial was built to pay homage to this legendary Rajput hero. The statue in this Pratap Memorial on the top of Moti Magri Udaipur is made of bronze.
Doodh Talai: Dudh Talai is a dainty lake in Udaipur studded with enhancements of human pleasures. The lake beautifies the south-east part of Lake Pichola and has an affable view from the twinkling places like City Palace, Jag Mandir etc. The small inlet of this lake, contributes its water to the larger lake Pichola. This place is unique with the presence of conspicuous view of Shiv Niwas Palace on its southern side and is adorned by two parks which adds grace its shore. M.L Verma Garden and Pt. Deen Dayal Upadhyay Park are showcase of modern architecture and allows one to stroll along its beauty.

In 1974 he established the Krishna Charitable Trust.

On Tuesday, April 2nd 2013, we came to your office and spoke with Mrs. Bell about our concern for your involvement in the Pacific Trails Pipeline that crosses unceded Wet'suwet'en territory.
We write to you today to remind you that, as written by the Unis'tot'en camp members: Wet'suwet'en territory, which extends from Burns Lake to the Coastal Mountains, is sovereign territory which has never been ceded to the colonial Canadian state; the Wet'suwet'en are not under treaty with the Canadian government. Their territory, therefore, is and always will be free, and belongs to the Wet'suwet'en people alone.
Our values of anti-oppression, decolonization and social justice bring us to join our voices and to act in solidarity with the Wet'suwet'en. We ask, again, that you retract your investments in this unethical and illegal project. On the 2nd of April, Mrs. Bell mentioned she would forward the Unist'ot'en's 28th of March 2013 letter to Chevron and its investors to your Boston group. We now request your confirmation of such doing. We also request an official response to our concerns.


A Google doodle caught my eye this morning.
This doodle celebrates the start of the World Wide Web, not to be confused with the Internet, some 30 years ago.
Agents are the player characters in Tom Clancy's The Division and are highly skilled sleeper agents that were activated by presidential directive to ensure continuity of government by any means necessary.
With Black Friday just around the corner, I have decided that it is time, once again, to play Tom Clancy's The Division. Perhaps it is extra fitting that I am battling the flu as I type this?
Hoping you have a happy and safe Halloween this year.
Relax at home and read books about the excavation of mummies in ancient Egypt, with a bit of playing Overwatch.
I've been watching Castle for the past few days and enjoying it. It is one of those shows that I'd seen a few episodes when it was on and always wanted to watch.


A Pentaformaic Planetary Warp (on the psychic plane of course), to conclude the 4 Points and focus the 5th Point of AETHYR to conceive the vision of the future some 364 years from 2012 at the dawn of the Age of Aquarius.
After a successfully documented and magically transformative journey* completing the 'silver circle' around the world, the AM47 ship is to again set sail north from San Francisco no later than 02 Oct 2012/13, etc., for Alert, Nunavut, the northernmost inhabited place on the planet near the North Pole. The space above the North Pole is the AM47 Point of Elemental AETHYR (PoEAE), and reaching Alert will begin the completion of The Pentaform: A Psycho-Cosmic Pyramid Crowning Gaia. The Pentaform is created by generating psychic energy from the experiences and Synchronicity made by traveling to each of the 4 AM47 Elemental Points and finally reaching the 5th Point of AETHYR.
When our Earth and Sun align with the end of sidereal Virgo and the beginning of sidereal Libra on 17 Oct 2013/14, etc., this planet/our reality have the chance to 'enter' the PoEAE. The crew of Project AM47 and 'livestreaming' participants from around the world will then attempt to generate, observe, dedicate and send the Awareness created by the completed Pentaform through the PoEAE. Once our Awareness pervades AETHYR, we'll have the opportunity to receive a transcendent emanation through The Gateway of Arcturus which contains the vision of the future perfect version of Planet Earth in the Age of Aquarius. The Awareness of this Emanation will spread all over the world and open the hearts and minds of all beings to work together to attain that future, some 364 years from 2012.

10. (07 JUL 2007) AM47 discovers that the North Pole is the Point of Alchemical AETHYR!
11. (01 AUG 2007) Russia made the first real claim to the North Pole on 01 AUG 2007 by placing a metal flag on the seabed at the North Pole. But I discovered that the North Pole was the AM47 Point of Alchemical AETHYR on 07 July 2007! That means that I beat them to the claim by 3 weeks… damn I'm good. And people think I'm un-American… eat that haters!
12. (12 Mar 2008) The "global superpowers" race for energy supremacy at the North Pole… But shouldn't it be the one place that belongs to Everyone??

15. (05 May 2012) NPIEE gets the greenlight! (26 JAN 2014 UPDATE: as previously stated, NPIEE is now defunct. But still, they did lay a lot of groundwork for a mystical-style voyage to the North Pole that may yet still prove to be of some value). A major documentary film producer has agreed to fund their "Inner Earth/Hollow Earth" expedition! The charter deposit is about to be submitted to the Russian charter company. After six years of hard work and faithful support, the Expedition is ready to depart in July-August of 2013. This gives me a glimmer of hope that one day AM47 will get funded as well! Though AM47's premise is more nebulous, the evidence is evermore compelling nonetheless! It just hit me that NPIEE is going Below, and AM47 is going Above! As Above, So Below~As Without, So Within. AM47 and NPIEE truly are sibling projects… We need to borrow their ship to make it to the Point of AETHYR.
NPIEE's proposed course up to the North Pole… can AM47 borrow their Icebreaker please.
16. (17 May 2012) Nasa's Wide Field Infrared Survey Explorer has sampled 107 'potentially hazardous' asteroids near Earth – 330ft wide or larger – to make estimates about how many are out there – and the figure is a terrifying 47,000.
47,000 asteroids ready and willing to punish the MonkeI.
18. (20 May 2012) "Torsion Fields (albeit still pseudoscience at this point)" are an intriguing "AEthyric" mechanism by which (sidereal) Astrology may operate to influence persons, places and things in general. On Sunday, May 20, 2012, the first annular solar eclipse visible in the continental United States for 18 years crossed the entire Pacific Ocean. Richard C. Hoagland performed a very interesting experiment during the eclipse that I would like to see replicated again please… Inconclusive yes, yet something in this does resonate… needs work.

Saturn, the grand malefic, has been applying to the Point of AETHYR (@ Zero degrees Sidereal Libra) these past few years… No wonder that project AM47, even at this critical time, could Never have been made a reality. This year would be the first real chance AM47 really ever had, with Saturn finally being just out of the orb of influence to the AM47 Point of AETHYR… Why… Was it always too late.?.

McLarenMcLaren's P1 supercar ran the Nordschleife in under seven minutes.
McLaren's P1 supercar is proving to be a worthy successor to the legendary F1, considered by many (including Tesla CEO Elon Musk) to be the greatest supercar ever.
Here's something that's helping the British automaker convince everyone that the P1 is as good or better than the F1: a sub-seven minute time on the famed Nurburgring-Nordschleife, the world's toughest and scariest racetrack.
That puts the $US1.15 million P1 in rarefied company. Only three production cars have done the same: the Radical SR8, Radical SR8LM, and Porsche 918 Spyder.
The Bugatti Veyron Super Sport is the world's fastest production car, but the P1 is made for handling corners, not just straightaways. That's what gives it the edge on tracks like the Nordschleife.

We like the lemon ginger chews.
.....and the rest is history. Taste good and are satisfying (relatively speaking). Ginger is also good for an upset stomach and I have tried it to see if it would help. Not sure if it's a medical aid but it did make my stomach feel less agitated. Overall, love these things as a candy or tiny snack throughout the day.
I always carry 3-4 with me when out and about, golf, walking etc. they refresh my month and fight dry mouth lasting a long time even after I have swallow it. People ask me for one and say they love them.
I buy these ginger chews 5 bags at a time every month. I am so hooked on these and the flavor is so good. Ginger is also good for you so that is a plus. The lemon flavor is a bit more hot/spicy then the regular flavor so if you do not care for hot/spicy things, get the plain ginger or even the mango. I have not tried the orange or peanut butter yet. The price is also good for how many you get in a bag.
Ginger lemon chews are tasty ??
Yummy. More ?? than ginger maybe, but still excellent.
Can you eat this while pregnant?
How many can you eat per day?
As many as you need for nausea stomach. It is a great tangy spicy taste to the mouth. There is no limit mentioned on the package.
Apparently you don't know how many for a doggy. Other products taste or smell to strong, dog refuses to take? You won't answer anyway?
BEST ANSWER: Yes I will. Ha !

Review: Call For the Dead by John le Carré
August 15, 2017 / Simon McDonald
Call For the Dead, published in 1961, was both John le Carré's first novel, and the world's introduction to the inimitable George Smiley, who returns later this year in A Legacy of Spies. Paced with le Carré's trademark assuredness, it's less an espionage novel and more of a murder mystery, whose main players happen to work for British Intelligence, with a plot that revolves around East German spies inside Great Britain.
Samuel Fennan, a Foreign Office civil servant, apparently commits suicide after a routine security check by Circus agent George Smiley. Certain erroneous details, however, identified by Smiley's keen eye, bring Fennan's fate into question. With Inspector Mendel in tow, Smiley unravels a clandestine spy ring, the members of which will stop at nothing to keep their secrets safe.
Call For the Dead is perhaps John le Carré's simplest story in terms of scope, but it still manages to highlight the inherent complexities of the life of a spy. Smiley is one of the unlikeliest heroes in espionage fiction, described here as a somewhat short and fat man, but it's his tenacity and intelligence that shines through, as always. It's no wonder le Carré decided to continue relaying the man's adventures to his burgeoning readership. Having said that, the novel hasn't aged especially well, and modern audiences might struggle with this one. Most readers will accept the now-outdated technology of the time, of course; that's not the issue. It's the structure of the book itself — an opening chapter, for example, that is nothing more than a history of George Smiley (it's actually titled A Brief History of George Smiley!) — that occasionally grinds and clunks. Also, Call For the Dead ends with a summation of the core plot points, penned by Smiley, which is quaint, but something contemporary writers wouldn't get away with so plainly. Le Carré's thrillers are now celebrated for their nuance, and in that regard, Call For the Dead definitely has a "first book" vibe.
Nonetheless, re-reading Call For the Dead was a worthy exercise, reminding me of how much more elaborate and nuanced Le Carré's novels later became. It will be interesting comparing this with A Legacy of Spies, surely the final Smiley thriller, and charting the immeasurable advancements of the world's greatest writer of espionage fiction.

My first proper visit to Handsworth Methodist Church in Sheffield earlier this year, and what a treat – a beautiful Christening service for three treasured siblings, surrounded by family, friends and community. The Church has been painstakingly renovated in recent years, making it a warm and inviting space for all. Here are some of my favourite shots from the whole day.


Scientists are rapidly learning how harmful insults, a critical nutritional deficiency, or exposure to an environmental insult at various stages of pregnancy can lead to developmental disorders. Research projects currently underway include a study to evaluate increased risk of neural tube defects and various other congenital malformations in association with environmental and occupational exposure to pesticides. Scientists are also concentrating their efforts on understanding the complex processes responsible for normal early development of the brain and nervous system and how the disruption of any of these processes results in congenital anomalies such as cephalic disorders. Currently, researchers are examining the mechanisms involved in neurulation -- the process of forming the neural tube. Investigators are also conducting a variety of genetic studies. Understanding how genes control brain cell migration, proliferation, differentiation, and death, and how radiation, drugs, toxins, infections, and other factors disrupt these processes will aid in preventing many congenital neurological disorders. Recent studies have shown that the addition of folic acid to the diet of women of child-bearing age may significantly reduce the incidence of neural tube defects. Therefore, it is recommended that all women of child-bearing age consume 0.4 mg of folic acid daily.
Cephalic disorders are congenital conditions that stem from damage to or abnormal development of the budding nervous system. Most cephalic disorders are caused by a disturbance that occurs very early in the development of the fetal nervous system. Damage to the developing nervous system is a major cause of chronic, disabling disorders, and sometimes death in infants, children, and even adults. Cephalic disorders may be influenced by hereditary or genetic conditions or by environmental exposures during pregnancy (e.g., medication taken by the mother, maternal infection, exposure to radiation). Some cephalic disorders occur when the cranial sutures (the fibrous joints that connect the bones of the skull) join prematurely. Understanding the normal development of the human nervous system may lead to a better understanding of cephalic disorders.
Treatments for cephalic disorders depend upon the particular type of disorder. For most cephalic disorders, treatment is only symptomatic and supportive. In some cases, anticonvulsant medications shunts, or physical therapy are appropriate.
The degree to which damage to the developing nervous system harms the mind and body varies enormously. Many disabilities are mild enough to allow those afflicted to eventually function independently in society. Others are not. Some infants, children, and adults die; others remain totally disabled; and an even larger population is partially disabled, functioning well below normal capacity.

Before I left for Portland about 3.5 years ago, I went to visit my mom in Jackson, MS. While I was going through my old stuff I came across my old pay stubs, which I used to save. I found my very first one from my first job and snapped a picture of it.
A few weeks back I was going through pictures on my phone and noticed the date. I made a note to say something about it on this day. 20 years, y'all!
