And How to Enhance enjoyment of CD music .
now for something more cheerful!
CD music seems flat because it does not reproduce sound in the 60 kHz + range . This was because knowledge at the time of laying down the standards did not encompass later findings that the higher frequencies were essential to direction location and the richness of music .
Sound waves of these higher frequencies wrap around the head . Our ears and associated neural networks are hardwired to interpret these signals .
But , we can mimic some of these effects .
If the sound waves can’t move around the head , we can move the head .
The built-in neural networks compensate , giving actual distance estimates and the sense of musical richness (ie multi-frequency analysis from distance variant bases).
How to do this :
Look ahead while listening to the CD music .
Move your head to the right about 1 to 2 degrees from center in about one second .
Then Move your head to the left about 1 to 2 degrees from center in about one second
Repeat steadily while concentrating on the music .
You will notice an immediate sense of enrichment of the music .
Try it ! It is the only way .
What happens behind the scenes :
The sweep rate of the head (2 to 4 hz) is close to the brains theta rhythms : the aural input is easily integrated into the general awareness model in the mirror systems .
The brain hears an enhanced version .
Training:
You will notice that if you do this at first , while tapping fingers or moving the head or limbs in time to the music , the enrichment effect vanishes . This is because different neural systems are involved . This combination has to be trained in .
The reason for this is that we did not evolve in an environment deficient in 60+kHz soundwaves .
To compensate for this , all we have to do is give our neural networks a chance to learn the association between the new aural input and the already established rhythm pattern recognition systems in the fingers , toes , muscle-memory in upper-thighs and upper-arms .
Did I forget to mention the pattern recognition in the upper thighs or upper arms ?
Oops !
Think sexual excitation . Erogenous zones . Patterns of touches . Sequences .
Sweeping the head side to side over 2 degrees at 3 Hz while tapping with fingers in rhythm on the upper thigh will give an easy bridge between the different pathways .
Children growing up with CD’s .
They develop head-tics of various proportions or hyperactivity (the head is attached to the body) to hear better . The neural networks do what they are supposed to do : optimize .
Hyperactivity is a violent head-tic involving the whole body .
The outside observer sees tics or attention deficit disorder .
Roll-on Ritalin !
How long does it take ? And what does it mean ?
Ask your nearest shaman with the papers and all .

Key Concepts:
AttentionDeficitDisorder (see previous post)
HyperActivity
VitD
Biologically active sulfur for the skin
Essential Fatty Acids
Discussion:
I hereby give the overview and sources not mentioned in the previous post on AttentionDeficitDisorder .
Vitamin D
An excellent overview given in November 2007 issue of Scientific American “ Cell Defenses : Sunshine Vitamin”

“Vitamin deficiency” by Holick “New England Journal of Medicine , Vol357,no3,p266-281.july 19,2007.
Biologically active sulphur .
I have discussed this before . It is sufficient to note that animals whose skins we want to use for things like shoes and furs , need additional supplements of sulphur to be usable . (Google “MSM animal feeds”)
This means that humans are also deficient in biologically active sulphur .
Discussion:
Sulphur is essential in the normal deployment of skin organelles .There is a synergistic effect .
The less sulphur , the less Vit D.
Cheap clothing and urbanization means that most humans only expose a small part of their body for small periods to UVB . A general shortage of sulphur exacerbates the effect , as the skin cannot function optimally .
The net effect is a chronic shortage of Vitamin D .
In Utero effects:
Switching on and off of genes are especially important during gestation . If there is general shortage of 1,25D during this period , the available supplies are switched to the most important systems . (This is a very ancient system) . Certain later genes do not get switched on . This leads to immune problems . Notice the dominant effect of VitD vs Folic Acid .
Can this be rectified?
Yes . During growth spurts . The puberty+ stage is important .
As discussed before , AttentionDeficitDisorder and HyperActivity is not only normal in the spurt of growth in neuromass after puberty , but essential . Every human goes through this stage .
Intervention :
Northern latitude Europeans used to have a cheap source of VitD and Essential Fatty Acids in oily fish . They have destroyed these fish stocks and are now paying the price .
The problem is not only an on-going shortage of 1,25D , but an accumulated shortage of gene switches which did not happen .
Which is why there is an upper limit to VitD dosages . Too much , and the accumulated by-products of long-delayed gene-switch-on’s poisens the organism .
Why do these delays build up ? Because these steps are essential in maturing sperm and ova cells . The corrollary is , of course , that fertility rates in far northern latitudes are very low . This is borne out by evidence (Laps , Mongols , Esquimeaux,etc)
Actual Case study:
A male youth entering puberty with symptoms of chronic VitD deficiency .
Certain gene-sets do not switch on (extended neotony) . This is observed as babylike behaviour: hyperactivity and inability to concentrate for long periods .
Puberty makes this much worse .
Available resources of VitD , Essential fatty acids and Sulphur are stretched to breaking point by development imperatives .
Intervention is simply making these building blocks available.
The dosages :
Sulphur is critical . Cells divide ,especially brain and muscle-cells .
Give a lot of MSM : 10 gm /day
VitD uptake will be enhanced , if sunshine exposure of about ½ hr per day is followed . You will tan rapidly and skin will be smooth .
If this is not possible , supplementations should be done . But note upper limit .
Essential fatty acids : the building blocks of the brain . Two tablespoons of flaxseedoil and codliveroil a day
Adults:
If you plan lots of MSM and sunshine , be sure to include antioxidants .Make sure the exposure is logarithmic : a little at the start , then increasing rapidly . You will notice that you tan more rapidly (1/2 hr instead of days) . You are also more sane . (Less unstable)
Pak protector .
A theoretical construct by Larry Niven . Also known as grandmothers .The genetic effect is real .
Surviving Grandmothers are all Pak protectors to some degree .
Grandmothers like fish (all the ones I know) . Essential fatty acids etc .
Adding megadoses should be interesting .
Pak protectors on the female line are well known and real . But are there male Pak protectors ? We know that it would be an ancient system . The females groom the male into being the Pak protector . The effect is real . The male lives longer and is dominant . But the females are also caught in the same trap .The planet might have only one male Pak protector , and millions of female Pak protectors . Yet the females cannot co-ordinate without a nominal hierarchical head .
Any male can declare himself Pak protector . This has not been done for about 4 000 years . Interesting times indeed .
The Grandmother Party can indeed sweep the planet .
Who , after all , keeps the whole shebang together?
A toast to the Pak Party .

Key Concepts:
AttentionDeficitDisorder
HyperActivity
Melatonin
Serotonin
VitD
MkIII and MkIV humans
CamelType
Discussion:
Four states are possible:
1.NoAttentionDeficitDisorder and NoHyperActivity
-> MkIII human -> desultory concentration -> lack of long-term application.
2.NoAttentionDeficitDisorder and HyperActivity
-> MkIV human -> obsessive concentration .
3.AttentionDeficitDisorder and NoHyperActivity
-> Learned helplessness -> neural weights are randomized ->apathy
4.AttentionDeficitDisorder and HyperActivity
-> HyperActiveFlea -> hop around ->fads utilized by state 1 and 2 humans .
Problem states:
State 3 is pathological , while State 4 is generally associated with children and juveniles of various ages .
State 4 to State 2.
Note that it is easier to shift State 4 to State 2 . This is one of the major driving forces in the epigenetic explosion of MkIV humans . HyperActivity can be left intact , while AttentionFocussing is conditioned .
The conditioning is social (schools , etc) and chemical (Ritalin , etc) .
A less problematic way would be to increase interest at a neurological level .
CamelType is one such way . (“The humps , the humps in the walls” a-la-HPLovecraft)
Originally evolved as adspeak , it is a way of increasing attention at a basic neurological way by alternating lower and upper cases in a pseudo-random way . This can be done dynamically on-screen , or better , on smart paper .
For example :
I TalK SenSe
i taLK sEnSe
i tAlk seNsE
There are 2^n ways of CamelTyping n letters in a sentence .
If in groups of three , a sense of order is engendered .
A neural-network mind looking at a screen where the upper and lower cases change pseudo-randomly is seduced into trying to deduce the rule .
Even if there is no rule , partial sequences of threes will be used and defended as rules
The neural-network cannot help it . It HAS to try and find correlations .
This is a well-known mechanism in horse-races , casinos and lotteries .
See also Sudoku , Chess , Go , Bridge , History , Science , etc .
State 3 to State 4.
State 3 is learned helplessness . This is Extremely difficult to work with , as there is no handle . The line of least energy is to convert State 3 into state 4 (AttentionDeficit stays the same , but induce hyperactivity) , then convert State 4 into State 1 or 2 .
State 4 seems to be a way-station for juveniles and other emotional cripples .
This is a favourite pathway for religious systems or armies .
Note that the most difficult pathway is from State 4 to State 1 . This can be observed in history .
This translates into “The weirdos seem to control all the committees.”
Where does , Melatonin , Serotonin , VitD fit in ?
VitD (or to be more exact , one and only one metabolic breakdown product (1,25D) is essential to trigger the expression of a large number of genes . Literally thousands of proteins cannot be formed without the intervention of this chemical . It is generally systemic . This means that you need it all the time . Gross shortages lead to things like rickets , but long before that metabolic abnormalities like auto-immune diseases strike , as juvenile immune responses are prolonged . The body cannot mature .
The genes expressing serotonin require VitD (hence Winter Sadness) .
Surface animals like humans have retained the capability of manufacturing VitD in their skins . Subsurface animals like fish (cod) have retained the necessary genes without solar input . Refer Esquimeaux.
The dosages : where the ping hits the plenum .
One healthy bikini clad girl needs about ½ hour of sunlight at median latitudes to get enough VitD (about 10 000 units) . A tbs of cod liver oil will give her about 1 000 units . Wearing clothes just leaving the face exposed is insufficient to generate enough VitD for procreation .
What a beautiful trap .
Humans in the high latitudes either have to migrate once in a lifetime to an latitude where there is enough sunshine (UVB) for enough VitD for essential gene-triggering to ensure fertility , or they had to eat fish products like codliver , caviar , salmon , etc to ensure the maturity of their own cell-cycles .
When neither is possible , human fertility rates fall . As what happened in the last century . What this stirs is ur-volkewanderung . All to be prevented by a VitD supplement .
The turnaround in Russian birthrates can be ascribed to the re-establishing of the Black-Sea holiday resorts .
And so it goes .

General Discussion :
Innovation is always at the expense of vested interests . If the vested interests have control of the society’s power levers , innovation is stifled . A bad collapse is then inevitable somewhere down the line .
A small number of competing states can only survive if they encourage innovation . (This is the generally accepted reason why Western Europe is dominant over China .)
Western Europe in Augustus’s time already had the basic building blocks of an industrial revolution .
Universities (Alexandria , steam engines)
Upward social mobility
Adoption of any new ideas (a Roman Republic speciality)
All this was brought to a crashing halt by Augustus freezing the status-quo into the Empire . Even that would have been tolerable if he had not been so damn good . He calculated the exact military forces the Empire would need to remain stable . (Hence his moans about Varus and his 3 legions.) He set it up . Not too many soldiers or too few . For two centuries it lasted . A magnificent achievement .
Note that technological advancement resumed in the low-areas of Netherlands , Belgium .(Windmills , watermills , metallurgy , weaving) If you look at the historical population densities , these are the areas that showed no dip in population figures . The fall of the Western Roman Empire did not affect them at all .
Augustus had some help from China , where Emperor Shi Huangdi had created the Qin Empire in 221 BC . The Chinese had practical , hands-on advice about how to stabilize conquered territories . The contact was via the silk trade initially , but was kept very quiet up till recently
It was in the Chinese interest to steer a far Western Empire into a constitutional stasis . They had definite records of Alexander the Great , and had no desire to repeat the experience .
There is some evidence that the formula for gun-powder was deliberately leaked to western states because they could better use the destabilizing effects against the Mongol and Islamic threat in the west . In the long term , this was a correct thing to do from the Chinese and Western viewpoints . But it was a desperate thing to do .
An Alternative History .
Augustus dies young . The nascent Roman Empire fragments into Western and Eastern parts . These fragment in turn till they resemble western Europe during the Renaisance .
Rome is just one state amongst many . It’s genius for pragmatism and necessity for incorporating Egyptian grain supplies (and the Alexandrian University) , together with the paper supply from Egyptian reeds , leads to a technological and scientific revolution .
Paddlesteamers .
Eminently suitable for the shallow harbours and estuaries of the Med . Basically , steam driven galleys . It is a niche never utilized in our time-line because propeller-driven craft developed for Atlantic crossings made better gunpowder weapons platforms. Yet , without guns , a Med paddlesteamer would have been a killer .
Grain and troops (think logistics) could be delivered against the wind and at any time of the year .
But would this not lead to the same Empire ?
No , because the slavery meme would be broken . A machine can do it better .
In our time-line this happened when Jethro Tull invented the seed-planter(1700) , AND it was adopted in England . The pulse of wealth (a factor of 4) fuelled the Industrial Revolution . To put it into perspective , an Acre of ground planted with Jethro Tull’s planter yielded four (4) times as much . In an agrarian society , this multiplied any farmer’s income by four . Think of your salary being four times higher . Not just this year , but every year after .
Other inventions followed as everybody wanted to get rich quick . Slavery cannot compete .
Note Gallic ball-bearings and harvesters .
Something similar would have developed in the alternative time-line .
And so it would have went .

Old Age Markers
Old Age Markers

23 Dec 2007
Why do men growing older get grey hair and bald pates?
Why does their ear-hairs , nostril-hairs , eyebrows and pubic hairs grow much longer than younger men’s ?
Why are old men smelly ?
Involuntary Altruism .
We know that evolutionary mechanisms operate even after the last child , because we have evidence of the GrandMother effect . Older Females in a family (ie with the same genes as their offspring) have evolved menopause and an extended lifespan . More and healthier grandchildren survive with a grandmother . The mechanism is part of general evolutionary theory .
So what about old men ?
They are sacrificial old goats !
A family fleeing predators would have a markedly better chance of its genes surviving if the older males are marked for predators . The predators gain by not having to expend too much energy . But the evolutionary kicker is that predators on hominids are usually of the big cat family . Their cubs have to be taught to hunt on easy prey . Older , slower , weaker hominid males are recognized by their markers .
So , they learn from early on what the markers are . A tacit bargain was struck .
The Leopard-class of big cats specialized in hominids . A saber-toothed variety evolved pari-passu with homonins . A desperate arms-race of survival ensued . I refer you to the tooth-holes in the skulls of some unlucky homonins found fossilized in Africa . The end-cat was a large black leopard with widely spaced saber-teeth and a high intelligence . Black because it was a night-hunter (when homonins nested) , widely-spaced saber-teeth to fit the growing skulls of homonins , high intelligence to keep up with the growing intelligence of their prey . But they did not have hands . They were exterminated , probably by concerted human effort . The last fossil record found was about 200 000 BCE , roughly contemporaneous with MkI Humans . The development of weaving probably had more to with their demise than anything else .
The present survivor of this class (the spotted leopard) preferred baboons and monkeys , and thus survived .
This went on long enough (estimated 7 million years) for a true instinctive fear to have been programmed into the amygdala(like for spiders and snakes) .
Go to the Zoo and look at a black leopard .
If he looks at you , you feel a frisson of fear . This is your amygdala kicking in . (You don’t feel the same looking at a lion .)
Of course , the black leopard is a pussy-cat compared to the previous terrors .
But , we can create an ideal hyper-image (idoru) .
A Black cat-head , broad with very widely spaced reflecting golden eyes , widely spaced saber-teeth . I suspect that saber-teeth wider than the eyes will immediately kick in the amygdala responses . The same effect is noticeable in horror-movies . The ratio of width-of –mouth to width-of-eyes seems to play a critical role .
So , if you have eyes close together and a wide mouth , do not show your teeth . The response is not rational , but instinctive .
Psychopaths are reputed to feel no fear . Is this true a for genetically programmed response like this ? There might be some therapeutic benefit in making psychopaths or extreme sociopaths feel terror . The mirror-neuron structures of empathy that should have formed in childhood can then be reconstructed .
To resume the argument :
Ropes and nets woven from plants by hands negated physical strength . Hence , MkI human males and females were roughly the same size and strength . Unfortunately , these fibres left no physical record until the impressions left in ceramics circa 30 000BCE . But we know that clothing became widespread as a result of the Toba-winter (72 000 BCE) . There was no time to invent new technologies , so old weaving technology was adapted to provide insulation in the survivors .
The old-age markers .
The smelly bit first (ie the evolutionary oldest)
The hairs around the glands extruding smelly compound grow longer with age .
Normally , body hair grows a certain length , then stops , dies and is replaced . Normal body hair around glands are crinkled , twisted and convoluted to give maximum surface-area to the scent-molecules . Pubic hair is the best example .
Ears : Tufts growing out of the ears broadcast the earwax scents. Also , hearing gets harder .
Nose : Nose hairs are unique to humans and supposedly evolved due to the smoke-filled environments after the usage of fire . The effect is to capture molecules on exhalation , store them , then release them on inhalation . In other words , a short term memory . The vomenerosal organs in the upper palate and connected to the nose are also connect to very ancient parts of the brain concerned with identity . Pheromones and other chemicals (like antibodies) extruded by the body are stored by the nostril hairs and fed back to the vomenerosal sensors . The body is continually reminding itself of its identity . This also happens to be the definition of self-awareness .
The intriguing speculation is that this method of base-line identity setting extends to the immune system . Evidence from yoga not only indicates self-awareness shifting due to concentrations of “I am I” pheromones by breathing through the nostrils , but that the immune self-definition is affected as well .
The Rapunzel Syndrome .
Too small a concentration of nasal hairs causes insufficient self-definition . Auto-immune diseases like arthritis , asthma , diabetes etc follow , as well as meme-diseases like low self-esteem , drug-abuse . Note the effect of cocaine sniffing on personality coherence .
Too large a concentration of nasal hairs like in old men , makes the person very self-assured with “presence” , the presence being molecules broadcast . “Charge! and damn the torpedoes .”
Notice that breathing masks like worn in very cold or very hot climates have similar concentrating effect , but weaker by an order of about 10 . (Norse , burkas,etc)
Intervention !
Cheap and easy . Noseplugs mimicking dense nosehairs will do the trick .
I am actually embarrassed that nothing more complicated is needed .
Noseplugs made of coarse organic wool should do the trick .
Even cottonwool will work , though it is a bit too dense .
Moustaches.
The poor man’s noseplug . Notice that individuals with moustaches always were always self-assured ,even if they were completely wrong . Societies with moustaches were losers . Celtic tribes had moustaches . So did Hitler and Stalin . Breathing in their own definitions of I all the time explains a lot .
Note the law-enforcement fashion for moustaches .
It is not a fashion , but a statement .
The Eyebrows.
Eyebrows have a long and honorable history of enabling mammal survival , going back to the dinosaur days . The eyebrow is dense with sebaceaous glands , pumped out onto the eyebrows and spread onto the environment . For a burrowing rodent , it was essential to know where it had been (identity and location) , as well as who had been there before and how long ago . Refer to muskrats ,beavers , etc . Humans do the same . This is why dogs jump up and try to lick your face . They are not trying to lick your face . They are trying to lick your eyebrows . Your scent-identity is being broadcast all the time by the glands in your eyebrows . Hence old men with bushy eyebrows .
But , while this would have been fatal when lots of predators were around , in “civilized” surroundings this gives the person a certain edge as being wise .
The normal heat-envelope around the body ensures that most of these pheromones go upwards , but standing on your head a lot will change that . Sigh . Another yoga shibboleth bites the pheromone . A full head covering like middle-age armour would have exaggerated effects on self-esteem .
Ice-hockey masks ? I rest my case.
A Christmas Present :
Millions of dollars can be made by an Eyebrow Scent . You owe me 5% for the idea , whoever you are . I hereby claim intellectual property right on the idea at Cape Town on 24 December 2007 AD .
The act of kissing only exists to bring the nose and eyebrows into proximity . Lots of compatibility signals ensues .
Applied scents are lies . Will an Eyebrow Scent significantly change human society ?
No . But you can make a shitload of money out of it , since nobody has thought of it before .
Armpit hairs .
Not much to be said here . Too fat , and they are worn away . Otherwise long and straggly .
Pubic hairs .
Pubic hairs in men grow long and straggly in old age . These capture more urine scented molecules and sets him up for a predator .
Grey Top Hair
As you can see , changing the colour of
hair to grey is a long range signal to a predator . This was sufficient at first .
Bald Pate .
Since females can also go grey , albeit later than males , the bald pate evolved to signal predators . Imagine a family running through the long grass with the cats in pursuit . They see a flashing bald pate bobbing up and down in the grass . They know that this is an old hominin male . Note that females do not go bald .
Self-referencing scents .
As you can gather from the above , the very definition a person makes of itself down to immune-level can be determined by scent-feedbacks .
Interventions:
As I promised , smelly old men .
Barber pubic hair and underarm hair to about 2 cm .
Bad feedback mechanisms are halted . Simple noseplugs restores some degree of selfpride .
Always shave .
The same holds for normal ages (20-40) . Variants of ice-hockey masks where the top holes are blocked might be considered .
And so it goes .

Why do men growing older get grey hair and bald pates?
Why does their ear-hairs , nostril-hairs , eyebrows and pubic hairs grow much longer than younger men’s ?
Why are old men smelly ?
Involuntary Altruism .
We know that evolutionary mechanisms operate even after the last child , because we have evidence of the GrandMother effect . Older Females in a family (ie with the same genes as their offspring) have evolved menopause and an extended lifespan . More and healthier grandchildren survive with a grandmother . The mechanism is part of general evolutionary theory .
So what about old men ?
They are sacrificial old goats !
A family fleeing predators would have a markedly better chance of its genes surviving if the older males are marked for predators . The predators gain by not having to expend too much energy . But the evolutionary kicker is that predators on hominids are usually of the big cat family . Their cubs have to be taught to hunt on easy prey . Older , slower , weaker hominid males are recognized by their markers .
So , they learn from early on what the markers are . A tacit bargain was struck .
The Leopard-class of big cats specialized in hominids . A saber-toothed variety evolved pari-passu with homonins . A desperate arms-race of survival ensued . I refer you to the tooth-holes in the skulls of some unlucky homonins found fossilized in Africa . The end-cat was a large black leopard with widely spaced saber-teeth and a high intelligence . Black because it was a night-hunter (when homonins nested) , widely-spaced saber-teeth to fit the growing skulls of homonins , high intelligence to keep up with the growing intelligence of their prey . But they did not have hands . They were exterminated , probably by concerted human effort . The last fossil record found was about 200 000 BCE , roughly contemporaneous with MkI Humans . The development of weaving probably had more to with their demise than anything else .
The present survivor of this class (the spotted leopard) preferred baboons and monkeys , and thus survived .
This went on long enough (estimated 7 million years) for a true instinctive fear to have been programmed into the amygdala(like for spiders and snakes) .
Go to the Zoo and look at a black leopard .
If he looks at you , you feel a frisson of fear . This is your amygdala kicking in . (You don’t feel the same looking at a lion .)
Of course , the black leopard is a pussy-cat compared to the previous terrors .
But , we can create an ideal hyper-image (idoru) .
A Black cat-head , broad with very widely spaced reflecting golden eyes , widely spaced saber-teeth . I suspect that saber-teeth wider than the eyes will immediately kick in the amygdala responses . The same effect is noticeable in horror-movies . The ratio of width-of –mouth to width-of-eyes seems to play a critical role .
So , if you have eyes close together and a wide mouth , do not show your teeth . The response is not rational , but instinctive .
Psychopaths are reputed to feel no fear . Is this true a for genetically programmed response like this ? There might be some therapeutic benefit in making psychopaths or extreme sociopaths feel terror . The mirror-neuron structures of empathy that should have formed in childhood can then be reconstructed .
To resume the argument :
Ropes and nets woven from plants by hands negated physical strength . Hence , MkI human males and females were roughly the same size and strength . Unfortunately , these fibres left no physical record until the impressions left in ceramics circa 30 000BCE . But we know that clothing became widespread as a result of the Toba-winter (72 000 BCE) . There was no time to invent new technologies , so old weaving technology was adapted to provide insulation in the survivors .
The old-age markers .
The smelly bit first (ie the evolutionary oldest)
The hairs around the glands extruding smelly compound grow longer with age .
Normally , body hair grows a certain length , then stops , dies and is replaced . Normal body hair around glands are crinkled , twisted and convoluted to give maximum surface-area to the scent-molecules . Pubic hair is the best example .
Ears : Tufts growing out of the ears broadcast the earwax scents. Also , hearing gets harder .
Nose : Nose hairs are unique to humans and supposedly evolved due to the smoke-filled environments after the usage of fire . The effect is to capture molecules on exhalation , store them , then release them on inhalation . In other words , a short term memory . The vomenerosal organs in the upper palate and connected to the nose are also connect to very ancient parts of the brain concerned with identity . Pheromones and other chemicals (like antibodies) extruded by the body are stored by the nostril hairs and fed back to the vomenerosal sensors .

Super Refugee
Super Refugee
Andre Willers
28 September 2007
I have looked into the state of the lowest social strata of refugees in Africa , Asia , Europe , Americas , and I am filled with disgust .
The older brothers have created sweets in abundance , but walk away when the children suffer from stomach pains , saying that they should not be so greedy .
This following is for the little ones .
The three Consents that form the basis of the Law :
The Law
1.No Rule without Consent .
2.No Tax without Consent .
3.No Punishment without Consent .
How to organize a refugee situation .
Elect a leader (Dux) . Essential . Humans are hierarchical . (Rule by Consent)
Elect a Archpriest . (In charge of moral rules ,dying , etc) (Rule by Consent)
Elect a Lawayer. (Responsible for documents , permits , passports , etc) (No Tax without Consent)
Elect a Policeman . (Responsible for the strict enforcement of the agreed rules. The emphasis is on strict , as refugees tend to be in a state of learned helplessness , and the only known way out is social environment with strict rules . This so that the neural network of the deconstructed person can learn the new rules .) (No Punishment without Consent)
Elect a Soldier . There are a large number of predators preying on these defenseless people . (No Rule without Consent)
This takes only a few minutes . The persons responsible take on the characteristics of their posts as time goes by . ( Well proven by various studies .)
Reinforcement :
Humans forget easily , one of their strong points . We need to involve humans in daily rituals that involve other persons , body-image (ie fingertips) and the Law .
The ritual :
Before any meal , all stand up , look to the person on the left , clap once and say “The Law” , then look to the person on center , clap twice and say “The Law” , then look to the person on right , clap thrice and say “The Law” .
The Law being the three Consents formulated above .
This sounds ridiculous , but so does Christian , Islamic , Buddhistic , Hindu , etc rituals . The idea is to bind the rituals of dinner and eating into the Law .
Try it and see how your behaviour changes . It is a very powerful changing agent .
Joining the Society of the Law :
Any person that says these exact words (and no other) is a member of the Society of the Law and is entitled to the full protection of the Society .
No other person need be present .
The words:
“The Law
1.No Rule without Consent .
2.No Tax without Consent .
3.No Punishment without Consent .”
The person can only withdraw from the society without prejudice if both the Dux and the Archpriest agrees .
As you can see , this makes it easy to join and difficult to leave .
The whole idea . The only persons that qualify to leave are hermits .
This makes the system quite muscular .
Toujours!

Brain hemispheres
Hi,
By Jungian synchronicity I ran into a very good summation of the state of the art concerning brain hemispheres :
The references are:
"New Scientist" 22 Sept 2007 , "Mind Tricks:Six ways to explore your brain" . Item 3 ("A Brain of two halves") is relevant .

Book : "Mind Hacks" by Tom Stafford and Matt Webb
From the article in New Scientist :
Quote :
"The latest view is that the two hemispheres have subtly different styles of information processing : the left has a bias toward detail , the right a more holistic outlook . You can watch a video of a split-brain experiment at
www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZMLzP1VCANo&mode=related&search= .
Most people , of course , have a functional corpus callosum that shunts information between the hemispheres . Even so , subtle left-right differences exist . One task where the hemispheres operate differently is face-recognition . When most of us see a face , the right cerebral hemisphere does the lion's share of the work recognising its gender and decoding its expression . And because the right hemisphere is fed by the left visual field , that means we have a notable left-sided bias in our judgement of faces ."

Commentary:
Here you see the most powerful of evolutionary mechanisms at work :
The evolution recipe :
Make multiple copies , diversify the non-essential ones and reinforce the successful mutations .
One copy is sufficient for "business as usual" . The other copies can diverge and find more efficient ways of doing things without impairing functionality normally inherent in a single-copy mutation .
This is born out by experimental data . Analyzing DNA in terms of repeat gene-strings is now brisk business .
This is a partial explanation for the small number of genes (25 000) in the human genome .
Hormone evolution cannot be explained in any other terms , especially the sex-hormones .
If you examine the Oestregon -> Testosterone path , you will find numerous hormones spun off from this backbone .
An example will make it clearer :
A certain homonin group has one DNA sequence that enables them manufacture an enzyme to metabolize a tuberous starch (like potatoes) . Environmental pressures make the this tuber plentiful . Multiple copies of this DNA sequence are created all the time by the processes of cell-division . Cells and organisms with multiple copies can make more of the enzyme . They are more efficient and successful . Some of these sequences always mutate . Mostly , the mutation is not successful . But sometimes , it is . Now the organism can can metabolize a new starch . The food supply is increased . Those organisms with this outcompete the old ones . And so it goes .
An anti-example will make it even clearer :
MacDonalds is renowned for trying to bring the mutational rate to zero . Every branch must do everything the same way with the same ingredients . It gets increasingly difficult as slight mutations spin off and take hold ( King Burgers , Nando's, Spurs , etc)
This is called Intra-species competition : the same basic idea , but with differences that appeal to different customers , but within certain well-defined parameters . Cf franchises . Eg , you belong to the human franchise .
At some point , MacDonalds will have to modify (if it can) , or go extinct (bankrupt) . It's immense superstructure of control mechanisms can no longer be supported by the infrastructure in competition with similar , but more appealing firms .
A winning recipe becomes untenable due to competitive pressure and the inability to adapt .
Can you see the relevance to Empires and Religions ?
Boredom.
This is not handled by Maslow's hierarchy . Yet feedback organisms (including humans , bacteria , mitochondria) can die of boredom , or indulge in self-destructive behaviour for the sake of variety .
What gives ?
We sneak up in the usual way by looking at learned-helplessness . This is when the feedback into the neural-network is random . The "weights" assigned to the output is randomized , even where they have been established . The organism cannot react to anything . See http//:andreswhy.blogspot.com
This is true for anything using neuralnetworks . Cockroaches to computers .
Ok, that is understandable .
Now , let the feedback be non-random . The neural weights can then only assume values within certain boundaries . The values within these boundaries are discrete (the logic comes from from synaptic levels) . Pauli's principle comes into play . There are a finite number quantum states any system can have .
If this number is exceeded , the system becomes bored and assignes values to the new item outside of the existing set of values .
The more civilized , the smaller the number of acceptable quantum-states . The more likely revolution .
Boredom and boredom breaking is thus a mechanism that flows from subatomic and quantum arguments .
The above argument is relative . Notice that the number of quantum states acceptable to an entitity might be very small
("I can't wear these shoes to to the ball ! " )
So , electrons , protons etc can be bored . But they have a large number of possible states . Complex feedback systems limit the degrees of freedom . You , as a person , have fewer degrees of freedom than an electron .
Another proof of why a Theory of Everything is not possible . The moment there is a self-aware observer , the degrees of freedom decrease rapidly (it does not collapse to a singularity , but to sets of axioms that decrease to a singularity.)
So , the next time you get bored , think of all the electrons in the wires about you .
They are really , really bored . When all the quantum states (Pauli states) on the planet are filled , you will hop . The greater the degree of interconnectivity , the smaller the number free quantum states .
Ho-ho-ho!
But of course , you need not wait until all the Pauli states are filled . Little bubbles of filled states will pop up all over the place , in statistically meaningful ways .
The little bubbles will inflate to create Turing self-aware entities .That's you , if you have'nt noticed .

Multiple copies of this DNA sequence are created all the time by the processes of cell-division . Cells and organisms with multiple copies can make more of the enzyme . They are more efficient and successful . Some of these sequences always mutate . Mostly , the mutation is not successful . But sometimes , it is . Now the organism can can metabolize a new starch . The food supply is increased . Those organisms with this outcompete the old ones . And so it goes .
An anti-example will make it even clearer :
MacDonalds is renowned for trying to bring the mutational rate to zero . Every branch must do everything the same way with the same ingredients . It gets increasingly difficult as slight mutations spin off and take hold ( King Burgers , Nando's, Spurs , etc)
This is called Intra-species competition : the same basic idea , but with differences that appeal to different customers , but within certain well-defined parameters . Cf franchises . Eg , you belong to the human franchise .
At some point , MacDonalds will have to modify (if it can) , or go extinct (bankrupt) . It's immense superstructure of control mechanisms can no longer be supported by the infrastructure in competition with similar , but more appealing firms .
A winning recipe becomes untenable due to competitive pressure and the inability to adapt .
Can you see the relevance to Empires and Religions ?
Boredom.
This is not handled by Maslow's hierarchy . Yet feedback organisms (including humans , bacteria , mitochondria) can die of boredom , or indulge in self-destructive behaviour for the sake of variety .
What gives ?
We sneak up in the usual way by looking at learned-helplessness . This is when the feedback into the neural-network is random . The "weights" assigned to the output is randomized , even where they have been established . The organism cannot react to anything . See http//:andreswhy.blogspot.com
This is true for anything using neuralnetworks . Cockroaches to computers .
Ok, that is understandable .
Now , let the feedback be non-random . The neural weights can then only assume values within certain boundaries . The values within these boundaries are discrete (the logic comes from from synaptic levels) . Pauli's principle comes into play . There are a finite number quantum states any system can have .
If this number is exceeded , the system becomes bored and assignes values to the new item outside of the existing set of values .
The more civilized , the smaller the number of acceptable quantum-states . The more likely revolution .
Boredom and boredom breaking is thus a mechanism that flows from subatomic and quantum arguments .
The above argument is relative . Notice that the number of quantum states acceptable to an entitity might be very small
("I can't wear these shoes to to the ball ! " )
So , electrons , protons etc can be bored . But they have a large number of possible states . Complex feedback systems limit the degrees of freedom . You , as a person , have fewer degrees of freedom than an electron .
Another proof of why a Theory of Everything is not possible . The moment there is a self-aware observer , the degrees of freedom decrease rapidly (it does not collapse to a singularity , but to sets of axioms that decrease to a singularity.)
So , the next time you get bored , think of all the electrons in the wires about you .
They are really , really bored . When all the quantum states (Pauli states) on the planet are filled , you will hop . The greater the degree of interconnectivity , the smaller the number free quantum states .
Ho-ho-ho!
But of course , you need not wait until all the Pauli states are filled . Little bubbles of filled states will pop up all over the place , in statistically meaningful ways .
The little bubbles will inflate to create Turing self-aware entities .That's you , if you have'nt noticed .

Hi,
Some processing tends to be done in different halves of the brain , but there is heavy interconnection . It is a tendency only , and of no use trying to suss out a persons personality .

Oom Andre,
Wat is die verduideliking hier agter?
Die persoon wat dit vir my gestuur het, sien "anti-clockwise" en ek sien "clockwise".... http://www.news.com.au/couriermail/story/0,23739,22556678-23272,00.html goes anti clock wise for me – but then after a while it was going everywhere
By Jungian synchronicity I ran into a very good summation of the state of the art concerning brain hemispheres :
The references are:
"New Scientist" 22 Sept 2007 , "Mind Tricks:Six ways to explore your brain" . Item 3 ("A Brain of two halves") is relevant .
The issue should be available from your library , or try http://archive.newscientist.com
Book : "Mind Hacks" by Tom Stafford and Matt Webb
From the article in New Scientist :
Quote :
"The latest view is that the two hemispheres have subtly different styles of information processing : the left has a bias toward detail , the right a more holistic outlook . You can watch a video of a split-brain experiment at
www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZMLzP1VCANo&mode=related&search= .
Most people , of course , have a functional corpus callosum that shunts information between the hemispheres . Even so , subtle left-right differences exist . One task where the hemispheres operate differently is face-recognition . When most of us see a face , the right cerebral hemisphere does the lion's share of the work recognising its gender and decoding its expression . And because the right hemisphere is fed by the left visual field , that means we have a notable left-sided bias in our judgement of faces ."
End Quote .
Commentary:
Here you see the most powerful of evolutionary mechanisms at work :
The evolution recipe :
Make multiple copies , diversify the non-essential ones and reinforce the successful mutations .
One copy is sufficient for "business as usual" . The other copies can diverge and find more efficient ways of doing things without impairing functionality normally inherent in a single-copy mutation .
This is born out by experimental data . Analyzing DNA in terms of repeat gene-strings is now brisk business .
This is a partial explanation for the small number of genes (25 000) in the human genome .
Hormone evolution cannot be explained in any other terms , especially the sex-hormones .
If you examine the Oestregon -> Testosterone path , you will find numerous hormones spun off from this backbone .
An example will make it clearer :
A certain homonin group has one DNA sequence that enables them manufacture an enzyme to metabolize a tuberous starch (like potatoes) . Environmental pressures make the this tuber plentiful . Multiple copies of this DNA sequence are created all the time by the processes of cell-division . Cells and organisms with multiple copies can make more of the enzyme .

Oom Andre,
Wat is die verduideliking hier agter?

The synapse seen as a Quantum device
The Synapse seen as a Quantum Device .
Andre Willers
8 Oct 2007
Summary :
The synapse is described in terms of a two-slit quantum device . Some more speculative consequences are derived.
Discussion :
Why have synapses in the first place ?
Most of their supposed functions ( like counting the frequency of pulses ) are in any case done in the receptor neuron . The thresholds are likewise done in the receptor neuron . The splitter effect could be done with direct neuron contact without the expense and sheer bother of finicky synapses .
The answer is , of course , feedback .
The system requires two types of feedback : general (hormones , general neurotransmitters) and specific commands from the brain which have to be amplified and applied in specific ways .
The structure of the synapse :
The emitters and the receptors , within nanometers of each other .
The synaptical fluid between them , consisting of water and folded proteins .
Let us first examine a synapse with just water as a synaptical fluid . From the docking mechanisms involved in getting molecules into cells , we know that water close to the cell-surface form template layers of the receptor site . (We are talking nanometers here) . The efficiency of the docking of the incoming molecule is greatly enhanced by the subtle template layers of the water molecules . (See articles in New Scientist and Scientific American describing this phenomenon .)
Think an aircraft coming in to land on a mist shrouded airport with multiple runways . From far off ,the pilot sees a general blur . As he comes closer , a runway becomes clearer . But a very slight change in incoming direction will have him seeing a different runway . He twists and turns the plane to land .
The layers of water-molecules act like multiple slits , both at the receptor and emitter sites . They also interfere with each other , forming in effect two virtual slits . If the receptor sites are close enough to each other , quantum interference effects can be detected (ie wave interference .)
Docking efficiency is greatly enhanced , since the incoming molecule is oriented in just the right way by the water layers to land correctly . There are three spatial and four spin vectors to align . (Four spin vectors since the molecule might be a toroid.)
(I am following the Copenhagen interpretation here . It might be incomplete , but it is not wrong . )
Of course , evolution could never keep it’s sticky fingers off such a set-up . Water is not the optimal synaptical fluid . Think folded proteins . Think quantum catalysts . Synaptical fluid can be used to program body-stem cells .
This means that the mind (see Topos articles in http://andreswhy.blogspot.com)
can interact with each synapse individually or collectively . The word “can” is used advisedly .
Ho-ho-ho!
This means that body functions are dependant on mind-image .
Another Ho-ho-ho!
This effect is becoming more pronounced . Humans are changing . Human self-image is having a greater effect on actual body than before .
Quantum diseases .
Obesity and diabetes can be described as quantum diseases .
Old age ?
Another example are eating disorders . Anorexia can be described as a human trying to be an Elf . Try a community of elves as therapy .
Epigenetic effects are quite capable of resurrecting hidden expressions in the human genome . A measurable effect would be on the BMI (Body Mass Index) . This is normalized on the MkIII Human . The index is rapidly becoming meaningless as more and more people are expressing genes of previous racial groups under the influence of body-images formed by previous genes and games .
Are you big , blocky , fatty and strong ?
You would be a freaky MkIII human , but a perfectly normal Homo Erectus . More significantly , if you look around a bit , you will find Ms Erectus (so to speak) .
The same for Neanderthaloids and the other homonin species subsumed by the Matriarchy .
Why now ?
It is a way of saying “Sorry” .
See the “Origins of Peace and War” in http://andreswhy.blogspot.com
The question always was why there were so few singularities in human history .
The answer , of course , that there was at least one .
The Matriarchy was not killed off by the their rejected sub-humans and mutants . They simply left . Like thistledowns on the winds of space-time , they blew away to other realms . Leaving behind their twisted offspring .
The various homonin species that might have achieved singularity on their own before their germ-plasm was suborned into the Matriarchy’s schemes are now surfacing close to the singularity .
Hey , the Bene-Gesserit had nothing on these dames .
Maybe you will meet the person that rejected your DNA millennia ago .
What will you say ?
There is only one thing that will fit . Not a punishment . A consequence .
“Mummy dearest .”
Andre.

Near tech
Hi,
Not science , but technology .
Brains+hands+culture=technology .
Stone-age technology (fire , nets , stone tools) were sufficient to lead to extinction singularities for societies like the Maya .
The problem is evolutionary specialization caused by intra-species conflict . The fittest end up in very narrow specialized niches .
These niches are very vulnerable to environmental changes (especially if they are overpopulated , as they are by definition-ref Malthus).
Getting out of these local optima is impossible for beings using their bodies as tools (eg Smilodon , etc) .The DNA system cannot backtrack .
Cultural systems are the DNA of humans societies . Humans will usually die before they change them .
I refer you to the excellent example of the Norse in Greenland . They starved to death in the Little Ice Age next to rivers teeming with salmon , because some bishop told them that fish should not be eaten . This sounds unbelievable , but it is true . Archeologists always have to check the middens of the extict settlements for themselves before believing it . There are no fishbones in the middens .
Humans are group animals : you cannot change their mind one at a time . You have to change groups .
There is one reliable method of changing human cultures without killing most of them : break down individuals and build them up .
The first to evolvel :
1. The Army : by trial-and-error , a personality demolition and rebuild of new groups evolved . Anybody who has been through basic training knows exactly what I am talking about . Each Army unit is a new culture .
2. The same principles were then used in Organised religions because they work .
3. Cultures then accreted around these two entities .
Ho-ho-ho!!
Won't this stick in the craw of liberals!
Armies are the basic building block of all present societies and religions . And the mechanisms of conversion are the same .
Assyrians and Romans were needed before Christians.
The recipe is simple :
1. Induction of learned-helplessness (cf Sapolski) by random stimuli and deprivation in an environment that is completely controlled .
2. Rebuilding of personalities by switching to a strict set of rules after personality demolition . The person's new personality forms around the new set of rules . The Rules Must Be Strict and very clearly delineated .Otherwise the neural networks cannot learn the new behaviour patterns .
The new set of rules can be Army (your unit) , Christian , Islam , Buddhist , residence , gang , organization , job , sect , etc, etc .
The New Persons will literally die before they leave their unit-comrades in the lurch .
The system is remarkably successful .
Before about 1800 :
Only about 3% were unteachable . These were usually autism , psychopaths , criminals and a tiny few rebels (though the system saw them as one of the three above)
After about 1800 :
About 20% are unteachable at present , and the percentage is rising .
As described in previous posts , (http://andreswhy.blogspot.com/) : mild autism (Aspergers) is heavily selected because of the nature of technology : concentrated , repetitive work for long periods .
The selection mechanism operates on an epigenetic level , so it is very fast .
Induction of learned-helplessness works on anything that has a neural-network (cockroaches to computers) .
But New Rules that involve empathy has shallow ground for a MkIV Human .
You won't find him in the ignorant armies that clash by night in the plains . He is the one sitting on the cliff with a torch , reading the manual .
He is also in control of most of the energy on the planet and all the weapons of mass destruction .
So , as you stated , the problem is not technology or science , but in human's ability to change their culture (which will automatically change their technology) .
They already have a mechanism for changing their technology , but the traditional religions are appealing to fellow-feeling , something aspergers (MKIV humans) do not have in abundance .
A very good example is Kitchener's campaigns in the Sudan and South Africa .
This scenario still ends in mass-depopulation . But it can be gradual instead of abrupt .
And so it goes .
Andre .

RE: How to be a refugee .
Hi, Thank you for your reply . I have read Jared Diamond's various books , as well as other similar ones . History does not repeat , but it rhymes . See http://andreswhy.blogspot.com/ "The Origins of War and Peace" "What is to become of us?" "Prodigies" "War warnings" etc . We are facing imminent collapse and depopulation of the order of the Late Bronze Age civilization . One of the symptoms is that none of the negative feedback mechanisms that used to keep societietal growth in check are working . Everybody hopes that insane exponential growths can be maintained by some trick . Some technological Deus-ex-Machina . Some Super-Hero that will clean up the mess , wipe all the asses and snotty noses . (The latest candidates are entities deep in the Singularity.) On the other hand , nobody gets out of here alive .

How to be a refugee .
How to be a refugee . Andre Willers 1 Oct 2007 Valuable lessons in how to survive as a refugee are documented all over , mostly in verbal memories. But nowhere are they drawn together . (I looked on the Internet) . “Refugees for Dummies” “The Idiots Guide to being a Refugee” We need this desperately . Most of you who are reading this are refugees (ie the South African diaspora ) or descendants of refugees . All of us hope never to become refugees . But given the world climate change and overpopulation giving rise to political instability , it is nearly inevitable . We desperately need a “How to” guide . Most middle class Westerners have not the faintest clue on how to survive when their social support system collapses . So how did our ancestors survive ? Unfortunately , they did not like to talk about it . The information is there , but not easily available . I am not talking vague generalities . What we need is a site like HowToBeARefugee.org that spells it out , organized on the lines of Wikipedia . The people of New-Orleans is a good example . It is no use saying to a mother of three small children standing on a roof while the water is rising that she should have been prepared . What is she to do NOW ? Should she stay ? Run ? What must she take , not only for immediate survival but for survival in a week , 2 weeks , a month ? . Dive in and rescue her documents ? The radio ? A bottle of Southern Comfort ? Baby formula ? This is the question facing generations of humans . Remember the newsreels of long lines refugees in Europe , with grandma’s bed on a rickety cart while planes are strafing them and tanks bulldozing them out of the way . How much do you bribe a guard or a border official ? Do you trust fellow refugees? Share your food , water or information ? By the time you learn these lessons , you might well be dead . Does a woman trade sex or money , or both ? If so , in what proportion ? All things learned the hard way by millennia of refugee women , but not shared except in strictest confidence with their daughters . Needless to say , this is not an optimum strategy . General Rules : 1. Band together . (Make friends . Network) 2. Move . (If you’re being killed here , it can only be the same or better elsewhere.) 3. Share . (Critical . A group less than about a 100 never has diversity enough to survive.) 4. Carry documents.(Critical in civilized or semi-civilized disasters.) 5. Have a way of making fire . (Signalling , heating , cooking , weapon , etc.) Human societies have superb built-in memes for surviving disasters , given some time . The trick is to survive until these kick in . If you are excluded , the above principles still apply . Ask the Aztecs , Mongols , etc ad nauseam . Lone , stationary , selfish individuals do not survive in poor environments without self-regenerating support systems . Notice that the studies done on very poor structures that survive in the present world are based on these principles . Ho-ho-ho ! The first Christian communities were found on these very same principles , for the very same reasons . If you were dropped into a SA township , or a Brazilian favela or a Darfur hut , would you survive ? More importantly , would you even know how to go about it ? Where could you find out really , really quickly ? Remember , this is not like the training special forces undergo to survive in the veldt . That relevance disappeared about 500 years ago . I hope that some of you get busy and organize it . You will probably need it . Andre

Armies are the basic building block of all present societies and religions . And the mechanisms of conversion are the same .
Assyrians and Romans were needed before Christians.
The recipe is simple :
1. Induction of learned-helplessness (cf Sapolski) by random stimuli and deprivation in an environment that is completely controlled .
2. Rebuilding of personalities by switching to a strict set of rules after personality demolition . The person's new personality forms around the new set of rules . The Rules Must Be Strict and very clearly delineated .Otherwise the neural networks cannot learn the new behaviour patterns .
The new set of rules can be Army (your unit) , Christian , Islam , Buddhist , residence , gang , organization , job , sect , etc, etc .
The New Persons will literally die before they leave their unit-comrades in the lurch .
The system is remarkably successful .
Before about 1800 :
Only about 3% were unteachable . These were usually autism , psychopaths , criminals and a tiny few rebels (though the system saw them as one of the three above)
After about 1800 :
About 20% are unteachable at present , and the percentage is rising .
As described in previous posts , (http://andreswhy.blogspot.com/) : mild autism (Aspergers) is heavily selected because of the nature of technology : concentrated , repetitive work for long periods .
The selection mechanism operates on an epigenetic level , so it is very fast .
Induction of learned-helplessness works on anything that has a neural-network (cockroaches to computers) .
But New Rules that involve empathy has shallow ground for a MkIV Human .
You won't find him in the ignorant armies that clash by night in the plains . He is the one sitting on the cliff with a torch , reading the manual .
He is also in control of most of the energy on the planet and all the weapons of mass destruction .
So , as you stated , the problem is not technology or science , but in human's ability to change their culture (which will automatically change their technology) .
They already have a mechanism for changing their technology , but the traditional religions are appealing to fellow-feeling , something aspergers (MKIV humans) do not have in abundance .
A very good example is Kitchener's campaigns in the Sudan and South Africa .
This scenario still ends in mass-depopulation . But it can be gradual instead of abrupt .
And so it goes .
Andre .

RE: How to be a refugee .
Hi, Thank you for your reply . I have read Jared Diamond's various books , as well as other similar ones . History does not repeat , but it rhymes . See http://andreswhy.blogspot.com/ "The Origins of War and Peace" "What is to become of us?" "Prodigies" "War warnings" etc . We are facing imminent collapse and depopulation of the order of the Late Bronze Age civilization . One of the symptoms is that none of the negative feedback mechanisms that used to keep societietal growth in check are working . Everybody hopes that insane exponential growths can be maintained by some trick . Some technological Deus-ex-Machina . Some Super-Hero that will clean up the mess , wipe all the asses and snotty noses . (The latest candidates are entities deep in the Singularity.) On the other hand , nobody gets out of here alive . Andre

How to be a refugee .
How to be a refugee . Andre Willers 1 Oct 2007 Valuable lessons in how to survive as a refugee are documented all over , mostly in verbal memories. But nowhere are they drawn together . (I looked on the Internet) . “Refugees for Dummies” “The Idiots Guide to being a Refugee” We need this desperately . Most of you who are reading this are refugees (ie the South African diaspora ) or descendants of refugees . All of us hope never to become refugees . But given the world climate change and overpopulation giving rise to political instability , it is nearly inevitable . We desperately need a “How to” guide . Most middle class Westerners have not the faintest clue on how to survive when their social support system collapses . So how did our ancestors survive ? Unfortunately , they did not like to talk about it . The information is there , but not easily available . I am not talking vague generalities . What we need is a site like HowToBeARefugee.org that spells it out , organized on the lines of Wikipedia . The people of New-Orleans is a good example . It is no use saying to a mother of three small children standing on a roof while the water is rising that she should have been prepared . What is she to do NOW ? Should she stay ? Run ? What must she take , not only for immediate survival but for survival in a week , 2 weeks , a month ? . Dive in and rescue her documents ? The radio ? A bottle of Southern Comfort ? Baby formula ? This is the question facing generations of humans . Remember the newsreels of long lines refugees in Europe , with grandma’s bed on a rickety cart while planes are strafing them and tanks bulldozing them out of the way . How much do you bribe a guard or a border official ? Do you trust fellow refugees? Share your food , water or information ? By the time you learn these lessons , you might well be dead . Does a woman trade sex or money , or both ? If so , in what proportion ? All things learned the hard way by millennia of refugee women , but not shared except in strictest confidence with their daughters . Needless to say , this is not an optimum strategy . General Rules : 1. Band together . (Make friends . Network) 2. Move . (If you’re being killed here , it can only be the same or better elsewhere.) 3. Share . (Critical . A group less than about a 100 never has diversity enough to survive.) 4. Carry documents.(Critical in civilized or semi-civilized disasters.) 5. Have a way of making fire . (Signalling , heating , cooking , weapon , etc.) Human societies have superb built-in memes for surviving disasters , given some time . The trick is to survive until these kick in . If you are excluded , the above principles still apply . Ask the Aztecs , Mongols , etc ad nauseam . Lone , stationary , selfish individuals do not survive in poor environments without self-regenerating support systems . Notice that the studies done on very poor structures that survive in the present world are based on these principles . Ho-ho-ho ! The first Christian communities were found on these very same principles , for the very same reasons . If you were dropped into a SA township , or a Brazilian favela or a Darfur hut , would you survive ? More importantly , would you even know how to go about it ? Where could you find out really , really quickly ? Remember , this is not like the training special forces undergo to survive in the veldt . That relevance disappeared about 500 years ago . I hope that some of you get busy and organize it . You will probably need it . Andre

Topos is simply a new name for non-Aristotelian logical systems .

Russell and Whitehead proved that A and not-A is less than the Universum .
Godel’s work was a consequence of this .
What does it mean?
If you say that something exists (say A) , it means it must be defineable in some way , separate . In other words , the person talking about A plays a role , he defines it . Even using a symbol like A makes it separate .
But there is then always something left over . The indefinables . In other words , A and not-A is not the Universum .
This has been rigorously proved . It is obvious from the above .
True is defined as existing . Existence is defined as defineable . Something that is not defineable then is true and not-true . The essence of quantum systems .
If you have read and understood what I wrote before , you know more about these systems than the Topos authors .
Unless a Wright-proof (ie an undeniable physical gadget ) results , these theories become froth on the gales of history .

Topos is a typical publish or perish phenomenon . Dress up old , known things in a new guise . Some quotes from the Topos paper :
“Intuistionic logic” : what does not fit , gets swept under the carpet . They should get a fuzzy logic Roomba .
“Heyting algebra” : fuzzy logic , as used by your fridge or microwave , but a neat term .
“Sets” is used in the argument : sets? Sets are a number of similar identifiable items , these being identified and counted by the hypothetical observer . This directly contradicts the basic assumption of Topos .
Notice how classical set theory warps if you add the hidden assumption of somebody doing the defining and counting .
Topos is not a very good attempt . Frieden did better .

Topos (plural topoi) is simply a new name for non-Aristotelian logical systems .
Perhaps I should clarify a bit , as my previous post could do with some expansion .
The Aristotelian system . Binary logic .
Definition : Something is true or not-true . The middle (ie something that is both true and untrue) is excluded .
Our purest expression of this is in computers : binary language (1 or 0) .
Now translate this into reality .
Current flow is equivalent to 1
Non-Current flow is equivalent to 0 .
But how are we to distinguish between a string of 0’s and somebody cutting the wire ?
We cannot , except by way of a third signal . In computers , timing is used (pulses of current at varying times .)
Can you see the uncertainty inherent in this worldview ?
Using two variables to describe a 3-variable environment . There is always uncertainty . Hence quantum systems .
Try to construct different ways . It is not possible . There is always a different third state , denoting no-signal .
For example , (+1) + (-1) = (0) … three states .
The reason is in (A) U (~A) < n="1" yn="0" yn="1" yn="any">1
Y+N+YN=any . Strong godlike . YN>1
For example , to describe a real thing we have to say:
Reality(Class =1, Y=1) for our traditional Aristotelian reality.
Reality(Class =2, Y=0.9 , N=0.02 , YN= 0.08) for our Quantum reality.
Reality(Class =3, Y=0.7 , N= 0.1 , YN=0.3) for our creative , bootstrap,weak godlike reality.
Reality(Class =4, Y=0.7 , N= 0.1 , YN=5) for strong godlike intervention reality.
Why the Classes of Reality ? Because of the phenomenon known as “wave-function collapse” . This is a Procrustean human system whereby the Y,N,YN of Class 2 realities are summated and then selected : the lowest summation of YN value is selected as the “wave-function collapse” . High N values are ignored . This is called quantum physics –Copenhagen interpretation . (This is already breaking down from experimental evidence. )
The “reality” is that there is no wave-function collapse . The thingies happily keep on being what they are . Humans pick the creamy , chocolate ones and ignore the rest . Typical .
Topoi as formulated do not take the observer into account . This limits them to distributive-logic systems . The Mathematician plays the role of the observer .
Unfortunately , science requires replication of experiments by different observers (ie distributive-logic . )
.
Yet we routinely use quantum devices with a high degree of certainty . The trick is in two parts :
Expand the quantum bubble (ie , move closer to macro-state)
Quantum-tunneling is a transfinite process found everywhere , on macroscopic scale as well .
See :
http://arxiv.org/abs/0708.0681 : photon tunneling of up to 1 meter was experimentally verified , using very simple apparatus . See also New Scientist 18 Aug 2007 p10 “ Light seems to defy its own speed limit.”
Tunneling seems to play a role in fusion and fission processes . Indeed , if tunneling over macroscopic distances is routine , why does cold-fusion not occur regularly ? Maybe it does/did . Ref natural Okra fission reactor in North Africa .
Jupiter’s energy budget seems to indicate that some low-temperature fusion reactions are occurring because of meson-tunneling between large crystals formed in the atmosphere and sheared in two by violent storms .
The Sun’s energy output is too high for its temperature . This crack is papered over by postulating additional energy formation in the corona . But this is exactly where heightened fusion because of tunneling would be expected . This layer is also very susceptible to magnetic effects from the planets . Thus , Earth’s weather, via the Earth’s magnetosphere can have an effect on the sun’s surface fusion energy production . The effect is non-linear , so even small changes in earth’s magnetosphere can have large effects on the surface fusion on the sun .
Consciousness : quantum effects have long been postulated . The general prevalence of macro-tunneling makes this 0.99 likely .
See “Non-locality” , http://andreswhy.blogspot.com/ , etc
Error-correction (Pinch)
Set “Usable=True” .
Then pinch your apparatus from a higher uncertainty to a lower uncertainty . This is a system like a transistor , or in general most non-linear amplifying devices .
Note that the entropy inside the device decreases , a general prerequisite for life .
Trial-and-error in a system designed to pinch Class2->Class1 Realities will give a fairly reliable quantum based system . (Like your computer , hifi,etc)
Ditto for Pinches of Class3->Class2->Class1 Realities , but the viability decreases drastically as YN increases . This is the definition of lifeforms like humans , advanced computers , etc .
Class4 pinches : highly dangerous . Not recommended unless you are a god .
See Prediction below .
Prediction and Postdiction .
Let YN>0 , like in the observable Universe .
This means that there are finite (0Define the paths as AB(1) , AB(2) , …,AB(n)
If any particular path AB(i) lies within the lightspeed cone from B , then any point on it can be accessed from A without violating relativistic (and thus causal) constraints . Note that the mechanism is probably tunneling .
There is some good news and some bad news .
The good news is that prediction is possible .
The bad news is that only a future AB(i) , not the future can be predicted .
The future is at B , where all the possibilities AB(i) are summed .
A further limitation is that only the futures entangled with A can be predicted . Influences outside AB path or outside the light cone cannot be predicted .
Algorithms for sampling AB(i) pathways can easily be constructed for Reality Class2 , and indeed are (quantum devices).
A corollary is that prophecies and mind-constructed scenarios are the same .
Seeing some futures are equated with intelligence and creativity . There is no functional way of differentiating them . Some think that the ability of the brain to pick up these small lengths on alternate futures is the human ability to foresee and create .
The problem here is that humans think that what they foresee is THE truth . Hence prophets like Cayce , hypnotic progression , etc do not realize that what they see are but one pathway , one possible future .
Creating algorithms for Reality class 3 systems is thus indistinguishable from intelligence and creativity enhancement .
This will involve powerful forces in the human sphere .
Just collating all the prophecies won’t hack it either . The prophet has to be entangled and free of Aristotelian prejudices . Nobody qualifies .
PostDiction
The past is even more unknowable than the future . Literally .
Since for paths AB(i) , we can also have DB(j) , postdiction from B has to involve both pathways . Even if there is a wave-function collapse , the AB and DB paths cannot be distinguished .
For Class 3 and better realities:
Ford was right . History is bunk .At best , it is an intellectual exercise .
Oh well .

Don’t worry . We reach a natural pause soon .
Other Sources:
http://andreswhy.blogspot.com/ : see in general , or search for “mining the Oort” , “Topos ” , “Topos 2” , “ Topos 3 “ etc Transcendent numbers ,etc.
First , a Godel detour .
Arith II :Defined as
The standard axiom-set of 10 axioms that gives rise to our set of numbers .
I here use the usual number-line as learned at school . A line that starts at 0 and continued indefinitely (to infinity) via the property that (x+1) <> x .
Ie that numberline never loops back on itself .
But this axiom is arbitrary .
(The axiom that gives difficulty is usually given as the axiom Number 4)
This is analogous to the parallel-axiom in Euclidean systems that gave rise to non-Euclidean geometry .
Godel proved rigorously that if you have a theory that incorporates ArithII , then you can formulate statements which cannot be derived (proved) from the given axiom set as True or False unless you incorporate at least one extra axiom . In other words , at the heart of our number system lies statements which are both True and Not-True .
This is equivalent to stating that the set of statements represented below cannot be proven complete unless n is an element of ArithII .
But if n is an element of ArithII , then it is infinite . Not just an ordinary infinity , but an infinity where aleph -> omega .
ArithII + A(1) = Arith I(1)
ArithII + A(2) = Arith I(2)
.
ArithII + A(n) = Arith I(n)
Where A(n) is an axiom defining a loopback of the numberline .
As you can visualize , the loopback can terminate on any point of the ArithII numberline . Hence , n must be an element of ArithII .
This is not a very rigorous proof , but true nonetheless .
What does it mean ?
1. No General Unified Theory (GUT) is possible using a finite set of axioms .
This means that mathematics and physics are open-ended . There is no end to new understanding (axioms) . Literally .
2. An entity capable of using infinite sets of axioms would be a Reality Class four entity . Ie strong godlike .
3 . Local groupings of axioms .
These can be found by algorithmic means . At least two rigorous ones and one iffy one are known :
3.1 The Scientific Method
3.2 Transcendand number tunneling (ie numbers like e , pi) . (Note my use of 1/e in previous posts.)
3.3 Direct inspection . (See “Souls” below)
The Willers-Venn diagram .
Ordinary set-theory cannot be used , since elements in the Universum cannot be given a Defineability Axiom .
This is the trick :
Use a window on the Universum . Simple ,eh? But very powerful .
Take a piece of paper and draw a rectangle .
This is a window on the Universum , all the defineable and non-defineable thingies .
Now you do not have to worry that the Universum has no boundaries , as long as your internal Venn diagrams do not touch the sides of the window .
Inside the window , draw the normal intersecting Venn circular diagrams denoting Y and N and not touching the sides of the window . The Intersection being YN .
It is not easy to find YN by just looking at Y or N .
But we can sneak up on it by looking at Not-Y and Not-N .
In Aristotelian systems ,
{Not-(Not-Y)} Intersection {Not-(Not-N)} = YN
but in Non-Aristotelian systems
{Not-(Not-Y)} Intersection {Not-(Not-N)} = YN + Everything outside the Y or N circles .
Conservation Laws and chaos .
If you have a system where nothing has been defined , and no conservation of any kind can be found , regardless of defineability and repetitiveness axioms , then the system can be described as truly chaotic . No internal space or time metrics can be found . In other words , it is a point . But in an infinite sea of such universes , some will be closed and some will interact . The interacting ones give rise to the phenomenon known as vacuum energy .
There is a further discontinuous spread of interaction giving rise to “particles” .
The essential point is that if there is a conservation law in the set Y , then there is a mirrored conservation law in the set N . Most important that there is then a conservation law that can be found in the “pseudoset” ( YN + Everything outside the Y or N )
This means that elements of YN is holographically spread all over the show , regardless of any space , time or any other constraints less than class 4 reality .
Does this remind you of anything ?
Souls have never been proved or disproved after 70 000 years of trying .

Don’t worry . We reach a natural pause soon .

First , a Godel detour .
Arith II :Defined as
The standard axiom-set of 10 axioms that gives rise to our set of numbers .
I here use the usual number-line as learned at school . A line that starts at 0 and continued indefinitely (to infinity) via the property that (x+1) <> x .
Ie that numberline never loops back on itself .
But this axiom is arbitrary .
(The axiom that gives difficulty is usually given as the axiom Number 4)
This is analogous to the parallel-axiom in Euclidean systems that gave rise to non-Euclidean geometry .
Godel proved rigorously that if you have a theory that incorporates ArithII , then you can formulate statements which cannot be derived (proved) from the given axiom set as True or False unless you incorporate at least one extra axiom . In other words , at the heart of our number system lies statements which are both True and Not-True .
This is equivalent to stating that the set of statements represented below cannot be proven complete unless n is an element of ArithII .
But if n is an element of ArithII , then it is infinite . Not just an ordinary infinity , but an infinity where aleph -> omega .
ArithII + A(1) = Arith I(1)
ArithII + A(2) = Arith I(2)
.
ArithII + A(n) = Arith I(n)
Where A(n) is an axiom defining a loopback of the numberline .
As you can visualize , the loopback can terminate on any point of the ArithII numberline . Hence , n must be an element of ArithII .
This is not a very rigorous proof , but true nonetheless .
What does it mean ?
1. No General Unified Theory (GUT) is possible using a finite set of axioms .
This means that mathematics and physics are open-ended . There is no end to new understanding (axioms) . Literally .
2. An entity capable of using infinite sets of axioms would be a Reality Class four entity . Ie strong godlike .
3 . Local groupings of axioms .
These can be found by algorithmic means . At least two rigorous ones and one iffy one are known :
3.1 The Scientific Method
3.2 Transcendand number tunneling (ie numbers like e , pi) . (Note my use of 1/e in previous posts.)
3.3 Direct inspection . (See “Souls” below)
The Willers-Venn diagram .
Ordinary set-theory cannot be used , since elements in the Universum cannot be given a Defineability Axiom .
This is the trick :
Use a window on the Universum . Simple ,eh? But very powerful .
Take a piece of paper and draw a rectangle .
This is a window on the Universum , all the defineable and non-defineable thingies .
Now you do not have to worry that the Universum has no boundaries , as long as your internal Venn diagrams do not touch the sides of the window .
Inside the window , draw the normal intersecting Venn circular diagrams denoting Y and N and not touching the sides of the window . The Intersection being YN .
It is not easy to find YN by just looking at Y or N .
But we can sneak up on it by looking at Not-Y and Not-N .
In Aristotelian systems ,
{Not-(Not-Y)} Intersection {Not-(Not-N)} = YN
but in Non-Aristotelian systems
{Not-(Not-Y)} Intersection {Not-(Not-N)} = YN + Everything outside the Y or N circles .
Conservation Laws and chaos .
If you have a system where nothing has been defined , and no conservation of any kind can be found , regardless of defineability and repetitiveness axioms , then the system can be described as truly chaotic . No internal space or time metrics can be found . In other words , it is a point . But in an infinite sea of such universes , some will be closed and some will interact . The interacting ones give rise to the phenomenon known as vacuum energy .
There is a further discontinuous spread of interaction giving rise to “particles” .
The essential point is that if there is a conservation law in the set Y , then there is a mirrored conservation law in the set N . Most important that there is then a conservation law that can be found in the “pseudoset” ( YN + Everything outside the Y or N )
This means that elements of YN is holographically spread all over the show , regardless of any space , time or any other constraints less than class 4 reality .
Does this remind you of anything ?
Souls have never been proved or disproved after 70 000 years of trying .
Yet they are as real as a car-bomb in the market .
The conservation effect in YN structures means that souls do exist . But our definition of individuals as a traveling standing-wave of memories needs some work , as each wave terminates on going to sleep . The waking is rather a random affair . See previous posts .

Final warning of War .
Final warning of War .
I am not repeating this .
Andre Willers
17 Sept 2007
Attention all family members .
The probability of a limited scale war of the order of WWI has risen to 95% - 100% .
Time of outbreak : Sept or Oct 2007 .
Scope :Far and Middle East
Scale : Limited nuclear . Limited biowar .
Duration : about 6-7 years .
Effects:
1.Immediate curtailment of tourist industry . (Insurance will not cover flights, planes will be converted to military use .)
2. Volkewanderung .
How bad can it be ?
The sudden cessation of food aid from US/Canada/South America as the ships cease to arrive will cause an immediate food crisis .
A human can survive without food for about 5 days . The wave-front of desperate food hunters is then about 5 x TravelTime x time from a population center . But note that the first arrivals plunder the food supplies very thoroughly . Overland routes become death-traps as both sides battle to extinction .
The front wave is also thin .
That is why fast travel via coast-hugging boats enables the locusts to move faster than defense forces .
This has happened before . During the collapse of the bronze age , the Peoples of the Sea were the only survivors . They could outrace the news of their coming and focus large forces .
In this scenario , the survivors of the desperate food seekers move down the East Coast and plunder lightly defended places like Jeffrey’s Bay . Do not think you are safe . One thing the English and the Vikings showed was that sea-borne attackers can arrive at any moment .
At present moment , the SA Navy cannot defend against this threat . This is not a deep-sea threat , but a coast-hugging threat . U-boats and frigates are no use . You need small boat navy . We can make them , but in the interval the coastal region will suffer .
Advice :
Do not go near the Eastern Coast (ie Jeffries) during the next year . I am serious . This sort of crisis blows up quickly .Hundreds of millions of starving refugees can be stopped overland , but is impossible to stop in coasthugging mode .The starvation period is 5 days . The pulse is immediate and deadly .
And don’t think it can’t happen to you . That is what the Jews thought when the they saw “Arbeit macht frei”
South Africa:
Will it survive ?
Yes , and quite handily as well .
A result of the above will be a pulse of expansion across the continent . This will be contested by a weakened China , India , US , Russia and EU .
Stirring times .
South African casualty figures from crime alone is larger than the war in Iraq . If you add in the deaths from AIDS , it is much higher .
The AIDS problem is about to be solved . The crime problem can be exported (as the British did) . The resulting explosion will outcompete Chinese and Indian influences in Africa .
Unfortunately , the resultant mix looks more like the Draka .
An extremely aggressive outward pulse through Africa , fuelled by reduction in crime levels (ie we export our crooks) and relative reduction in death rate from AIDS .
The rest of the world .

Zero-point Energy , Zitterbewegung and Postdiction .
How to get macroscale effects from quantum fluctuations .
Zitterbewegung : the electron near lightspeeds jitters around . This is derived from the Dirac equations as interpreted by Schrodinger in the 1930’s . The electron moves near lightspeed within an envelope . Tunneling will take place if the electron is seen as a particle .
Puthoff (1989) interpreted that this jitter can represent energy asymmetrically transferred from quantum foam particles .
Further , that the energy of the electron mass equals this nett energy transference .
Thus , the electron can be thought of as a standing wave maintained by vacuum fluctuations .
Postdiction:
This is a YN>0 situation .
But we can make it true by pinching the postdiction in a specific way .
The output is then extra electrons (current) , extra push(EMV) or both in a directly usable form , directly derived from zeropoint energy .
Cheap energy .
But note that there is a hidden cost : Entropy pollution .
Entropy pollution :
By definition , life decreases entropy inside it and increases it outside it .
This causes problems with quantum devices . (Heisenberg’s principle can be seen as a mild form .)
Chernobyl.
See a borderline nuclear system like Chernobyl at the end of the safety test . Containment systems were at a cusp , but previously found safe . Then the night-shift comes on . They understand less , thus their entropy is greater . The higher entropy means higher uncertainty . This bumps the probability of a fission per atom up over the stability level .
Not “boom” , but “sizzle” .
A classical example .
When the typically human fingerpointing started , some did try to point out that this was a routine performed many times before , but never at the phase change between an old shift and a new shift .
Hoist by Heisenberg !
Hopefully , nuclear weapons are more robust .
Entropy Sinks.
Any zeropoint energy device (and here we include lifeforms) require an entropy sink far away from the action to function at Reality Class 1 and 2 levels .
Ignorance is a reasonable ground-level state , but organized religions are much more efficient entropy sinks .
The mass media are also quite efficient at spreading entropy about .
This is why they evolved .
But high-intensity exploitation of different entropy levels (like zeropoint energy) will require specific designs. It is not too difficult , once it is known .
Note that Electromagnetic Waves of any description that passes through the body (ie low frequencies like radio , TV , Sun spots , etc) , increases the order inside the body (increases entropy .)
This is a Bad Thing unless you have compensatory mechanisms .
Increasing order at DNA/Intron level leads to interference with the quantum-level optimization of pathways .
Luckily , we have a stop-gap mechanism for low intensities :
Heat-shock proteins chaperone and mask small folding irregularities due to heat or small mutations . If they are overwhelmed (like big pulse of low-frequency EMP from meteor strike , large volcanic explosion , close proximity to cell-phone tower ,nuclear explosion) , the genetic and protein changes are suddenly released . A pulse of change ensues in the organism . Some think that this is one of the mechanisms driving punctuated equilibrium in evolution .
Negative Entropy Battery.
It is interesting to note that this mechanism operates as a storage battery of change , then releases it at once or slowly depending on the environment . This ties in with introns and repeated strings of genomes .
As expected from evolutionary theory , this system will operate better by orders of magnitude if it fluctuates . A relaxation of stress will cause an explosion of numbers in the most favourable mutations . An increase in stress will weed out the non-survivors . Repeat .
The social systems of human survivors of hundreds of cycles of this have got ups and downs built in .
Civilizations rise and fall .
But they fall jolly well faster if the internal Entropy inside each individual increases rapidly . I refer here particularly to the well-documented fact that social unrest is closely correlated with EMV activity caused by the sun . (1990’s)
The rapid increase of internal entropy forces a decrease in external entropy . Social disorder increases .
In the absence of extreme point-sources of zeropoint energy , entropy can be taken as fairly uniform over large volumes . (Close to a conservation principle)
So , if internal order per individual increases , the external social order decreases .
The more radio , TV , computers , solar flares , the greater the social unrest .
If the EMV pulse goes over a certain threshold , masked mutations are released and the cancer rate goes up .
HIV
The virus is reasonably successful because the mechanisms that would normally choose an optimal pathway to combat it is masked by the increase in entropy .
Their quantum mechanism is disturbed .
Just restoring a Faraday cage is not sufficient , as the balance has already been disturbed .
The internal entropy needs to be increased .
Blasting the organism with really random electromagnetic waves will drastically increase the disorder inside it , in contrast with the ordering waves it is exposed to .
Hopefully , quantum choices of optimal pathways are then made in a MORE noisy environment . Resonance effects come into play .
Really random is extremely difficult .
But how to get really random EM waves economically ?
Applause .
This is the wavefront of thousands of people clapping hands in a semi-random fashion. Fairly random .
Listening to applause for an hour loudly should reset some random counters .

Benford's Law and number 11
Sigh .
Accountants should know better .
I refer you to Benford's Law (Google it) .Wikipedia has a good reference .
The frequency distribution of the first digit of numbers to base 10 (not labels , so no use in lotto) is
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
30.1 17.6 12.5 9.7 7.9 6.7 5.8 5.1 4.6
This has been rigorously proven as a property of numbers , not just a statistical effect . It is also scale and base invariant .
The number 11
So , 11(base 10) = 10(base 11) , and the frequency of the first digit will have nearly the same distribution as base 10 .
The frequency distribution of the first digit of numbers to base 11 is
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
28.9 16.9 12.0 9.3 7.6 6.4 5.6 4.9 4.4 4.0
Why base 11 ?
Because of the hidden assumption in the sampling . No what the mapping is , the sum of the digits are kept smaller or equal to 11 .
This is the same as defining a base 11 .
This is typically Human procrustean sampling . Chop and stretch .
So , on these axioms ,the number 11 will appear about 29% of the time , regardless of the mapping used . Any significance can only lie in a divergence from this expected frequency .
There are numerous scams and faulty analyses based on this property of numbers .
Numerology is one . Elliot waves to a certain extent .
Of special note is the"Bible Code" , which appears impressive . On analysis , it is simply trawling through a large but finite set of human grammar- organised numbers using different bases and finding higher probabilities of some sequences . This is like saying that one horse will run faster than another . True , but of very limited use .
Vibrations , which is merely numerology in another guise .
Quantum physics , the latest human fad of how many true angels can dance on the head of a pin .

I Quote from the Wikipedia article :
Even more astonishing are the effects of Benford's Law on number sequences. Intuitively, most people assume that in a string of numbers sampled randomly from some body of data, the first non-zero digit could be any number from 1 through 9. All nine numbers would be regarded as equally probable.
But, as Dr. Benford discovered, in a huge assortment of number sequences -- random samples from a day's stock quotations, a tournament's tennis scores, the numbers on the front page of The New York Times, the populations of towns, electricity bills in the Solomon Islands, the molecular weights of compounds the half-lives of radioactive atoms and much more -- this is not so.
Given a string of at least four numbers sampled from one or more of these sets of data, the chance that the first digit will be 1 is not one in nine, as many people would imagine; according to Benford's Law, it is 30.1 percent, or nearly one in three. The chance that the first number in the string will be 2 is only 17.6 percent, and the probabilities that successive numbers will be the first digit decline smoothly up to 9, which has only a 4.6 percent chance.
A strange feature of these probabilities is that they are "scale invariant" and "base invariant." For example, it doesn't matter whether the numbers are based on the dollar prices of stocks or their prices in yen or marks, nor does it matter if the numbers are in terms of stocks per dollar; provided there are enough numbers in the sample, the first digit of the sequence is more likely to be 1 than any other.
The larger and more varied the sampling of numbers from different data sets, mathematicians have found, the more closely the distribution of numbers approaches what Benford's Law predicted.
One of the experts putting this discovery to practical use is Dr. Mark J. Nigrini, an accounting consultant affiliated with the University of Kansas who this month joins the faculty of Southern Methodist University in Dallas.
Dr. Nigrini gained recognition a few years ago by applying a system he devised based on Benford's Law to some fraud cases in Brooklyn. The idea underlying his system is that if the numbers in a set of data like a tax return more or less match the frequencies and ratios predicted by Benford's Law, the data are probably honest. But if a graph of such numbers is markedly different from the one predicted by Benford's Law, he said, "I think I'd call someone in for a detailed audit."

The Secret behind the number 11
Pretty Chilling - read to the bottom. Try it out.
If you are a sceptical person - still read on as it's actually very interesting!!
This is actually really freaky!! (Mainly the end part, but read it all first)
1) New York City has 11 letters2) Afghanistan has 11 letters.3) Ramsin Yuseb has 11 letters. (The terrorist who threatened to destroy the Twin Towers in 1993) 4) George W Bush has 11 letters.
This could be a mere coincidence, but this gets interesting: 1) New York is the 11th state.2) The first plane crashing against the Twin Towers was flight number 11. 3) Flight 11 was carrying 92 passengers. 9 + 2 = 114) Flight 77 which also hit Twin Towers, was carrying 65 passengers. 6 + 5 = 115) The tragedy was on September 11, or 9/11 as it is now known. 9 + 1+ 1 =116) The date is equal to the US emergency services telephone number 911.
Sheer coincidence..?
Read on and make up your own mind:
1) The total number of victims inside all the hi-jacked planes was 254.
2 + 5 + 4 = 11
2) September 11 is day number 254 of the calendar year.
3) The Madrid bombing took place on 3/11/2004. 3 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 4 = 11. 4) The tragedy of Madrid happened 911 days after the Twin Towers incident.
Now this is where things get totally eerie:
The most recognized symbol for the US, after the Stars & Stripes, is the Eagle. The following verse is taken from the Koran, the Islamic holy book:
"For it is written that a son of Arabia would awaken a fearsome Eagle. The wrath of the Eagle would be felt throughout the lands of Allah while some of the people trembled in despair still more rejoiced: for the wrath of the Eagle cleansed the lands of Allah and there was peace."
That verse is number 9.11 of the Koran.
Unconvinced about all of this still ..?
Try this and see how you feel afterwards, it made my hair stand on end:
Please do the following:
1. Highlight the Q33 NY. This is the flight number of the first plane to hit one of the Twin Towers.2. Change the font size to 48.4. Change the actual font to the WINGDINGS……………………
What do you think now????
Send this to as many people as you know and in 11 minutes you will get a nice surprise, if you don't you will get the shock of your life in 11 min.

The frequency distribution of the first digit of numbers to base 10 (not labels , so no use in lotto) is
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
30.1 17.6 12.5 9.7 7.9 6.7 5.8 5.1 4.6
This has been rigorously proven as a property of numbers , not just a statistical effect . It is also scale and base invariant .
The number 11
So , 11(base 10) = 10(base 11) , and the frequency of the first digit will have nearly the same distribution as base 10 .
The frequency distribution of the first digit of numbers to base 11 is
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
28.9 16.9 12.0 9.3 7.6 6.4 5.6 4.9 4.4 4.0
Why base 11 ?
Because of the hidden assumption in the sampling . No what the mapping is , the sum of the digits are kept smaller or equal to 11 .
This is the same as defining a base 11 .
This is typically Human procrustean sampling . Chop and stretch .
So , on these axioms ,the number 11 will appear about 29% of the time , regardless of the mapping used . Any significance can only lie in a divergence from this expected frequency .
There are numerous scams and faulty analyses based on this property of numbers .
Numerology is one . Elliot waves to a certain extent .
Of special note is the"Bible Code" , which appears impressive . On analysis , it is simply trawling through a large but finite set of human grammar- organised numbers using different bases and finding higher probabilities of some sequences . This is like saying that one horse will run faster than another . True , but of very limited use .
Vibrations , which is merely numerology in another guise .
Quantum physics , the latest human fad of how many true angels can dance on the head of a pin .

I Quote from the Wikipedia article :
Even more astonishing are the effects of Benford's Law on number sequences. Intuitively, most people assume that in a string of numbers sampled randomly from some body of data, the first non-zero digit could be any number from 1 through 9. All nine numbers would be regarded as equally probable.
But, as Dr. Benford discovered, in a huge assortment of number sequences -- random samples from a day's stock quotations, a tournament's tennis scores, the numbers on the front page of The New York Times, the populations of towns, electricity bills in the Solomon Islands, the molecular weights of compounds the half-lives of radioactive atoms and much more -- this is not so.
Given a string of at least four numbers sampled from one or more of these sets of data, the chance that the first digit will be 1 is not one in nine, as many people would imagine; according to Benford's Law, it is 30.1 percent, or nearly one in three. The chance that the first number in the string will be 2 is only 17.6 percent, and the probabilities that successive numbers will be the first digit decline smoothly up to 9, which has only a 4.6 percent chance.
A strange feature of these probabilities is that they are "scale invariant" and "base invariant." For example, it doesn't matter whether the numbers are based on the dollar prices of stocks or their prices in yen or marks, nor does it matter if the numbers are in terms of stocks per dollar; provided there are enough numbers in the sample, the first digit of the sequence is more likely to be 1 than any other.
The larger and more varied the sampling of numbers from different data sets, mathematicians have found, the more closely the distribution of numbers approaches what Benford's Law predicted.
One of the experts putting this discovery to practical use is Dr. Mark J. Nigrini, an accounting consultant affiliated with the University of Kansas who this month joins the faculty of Southern Methodist University in Dallas.
Dr. Nigrini gained recognition a few years ago by applying a system he devised based on Benford's Law to some fraud cases in Brooklyn. The idea underlying his system is that if the numbers in a set of data like a tax return more or less match the frequencies and ratios predicted by Benford's Law, the data are probably honest. But if a graph of such numbers is markedly different from the one predicted by Benford's Law, he said, "I think I'd call someone in for a detailed audit."

The Secret behind the number 11
Pretty Chilling - read to the bottom. Try it out.
If you are a sceptical person - still read on as it's actually very interesting!!
This is actually really freaky!! (Mainly the end part, but read it all first)
1) New York City has 11 letters2) Afghanistan has 11 letters.3) Ramsin Yuseb has 11 letters. (The terrorist who threatened to destroy the Twin Towers in 1993) 4) George W Bush has 11 letters.
This could be a mere coincidence, but this gets interesting: 1) New York is the 11th state.2) The first plane crashing against the Twin Towers was flight number 11. 3) Flight 11 was carrying 92 passengers. 9 + 2 = 114) Flight 77 which also hit Twin Towers, was carrying 65 passengers. 6 + 5 = 115) The tragedy was on September 11, or 9/11 as it is now known. 9 + 1+ 1 =116) The date is equal to the US emergency services telephone number 911.
Sheer coincidence..?
Read on and make up your own mind:
1) The total number of victims inside all the hi-jacked planes was 254.
2 + 5 + 4 = 11
2) September 11 is day number 254 of the calendar year.
3) The Madrid bombing took place on 3/11/2004. 3 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 4 = 11. 4) The tragedy of Madrid happened 911 days after the Twin Towers incident.
Now this is where things get totally eerie:
The most recognized symbol for the US, after the Stars & Stripes, is the Eagle. The following verse is taken from the Koran, the Islamic holy book:
"For it is written that a son of Arabia would awaken a fearsome Eagle. The wrath of the Eagle would be felt throughout the lands of Allah while some of the people trembled in despair still more rejoiced: for the wrath of the Eagle cleansed the lands of Allah and there was peace."
That verse is number 9.11 of the Koran.
Unconvinced about all of this still ..?
Try this and see how you feel afterwards, it made my hair stand on end:
Please do the following:
1. Highlight the Q33 NY. This is the flight number of the first plane to hit one of the Twin Towers.2. Change the font size to 48.4. Change the actual font to the WINGDINGS……………………
What do you think now????
Send this to as many people as you know and in 11 minutes you will get a nice surprise, if you don't you will get the shock of your life in 11 min.

Zero-point Energy , Zitterbewegung and Postdiction .
How to get macroscale effects from quantum fluctuations .
Zitterbewegung : the electron near lightspeeds jitters around . This is derived from the Dirac equations as interpreted by Schrodinger in the 1930’s . The electron moves near lightspeed within an envelope . Tunneling will take place if the electron is seen as a particle .
Puthoff (1989) interpreted that this jitter can represent energy asymmetrically transferred from quantum foam particles .
Further , that the energy of the electron mass equals this nett energy transference .
Thus , the electron can be thought of as a standing wave maintained by vacuum fluctuations .
Postdiction:
This is a YN>0 situation .
But we can make it true by pinching the postdiction in a specific way .
The output is then extra electrons (current) , extra push(EMV) or both in a directly usable form , directly derived from zeropoint energy .
Cheap energy .
But note that there is a hidden cost : Entropy pollution .
Entropy pollution :
By definition , life decreases entropy inside it and increases it outside it .
This causes problems with quantum devices . (Heisenberg’s principle can be seen as a mild form .)
Chernobyl.
See a borderline nuclear system like Chernobyl at the end of the safety test . Containment systems were at a cusp , but previously found safe . Then the night-shift comes on . They understand less , thus their entropy is greater . The higher entropy means higher uncertainty . This bumps the probability of a fission per atom up over the stability level .
Not “boom” , but “sizzle” .
A classical example .
When the typically human fingerpointing started , some did try to point out that this was a routine performed many times before , but never at the phase change between an old shift and a new shift .
Hoist by Heisenberg !
Hopefully , nuclear weapons are more robust .
Entropy Sinks.
Any zeropoint energy device (and here we include lifeforms) require an entropy sink far away from the action to function at Reality Class 1 and 2 levels .
Ignorance is a reasonable ground-level state , but organized religions are much more efficient entropy sinks .
The mass media are also quite efficient at spreading entropy about .
This is why they evolved .
But high-intensity exploitation of different entropy levels (like zeropoint energy) will require specific designs. It is not too difficult , once it is known .
Note that Electromagnetic Waves of any description that passes through the body (ie low frequencies like radio , TV , Sun spots , etc) , increases the order inside the body (increases entropy .)
This is a Bad Thing unless you have compensatory mechanisms .
Increasing order at DNA/Intron level leads to interference with the quantum-level optimization of pathways .
Luckily , we have a stop-gap mechanism for low intensities :
Heat-shock proteins chaperone and mask small folding irregularities due to heat or small mutations . If they are overwhelmed (like big pulse of low-frequency EMP from meteor strike , large volcanic explosion , close proximity to cell-phone tower ,nuclear explosion) , the genetic and protein changes are suddenly released . A pulse of change ensues in the organism . Some think that this is one of the mechanisms driving punctuated equilibrium in evolution .
Negative Entropy Battery.
It is interesting to note that this mechanism operates as a storage battery of change , then releases it at once or slowly depending on the environment . This ties in with introns and repeated strings of genomes .
As expected from evolutionary theory , this system will operate better by orders of magnitude if it fluctuates . A relaxation of stress will cause an explosion of numbers in the most favourable mutations . An increase in stress will weed out the non-survivors . Repeat .
The social systems of human survivors of hundreds of cycles of this have got ups and downs built in .
Civilizations rise and fall .
But they fall jolly well faster if the internal Entropy inside each individual increases rapidly . I refer here particularly to the well-documented fact that social unrest is closely correlated with EMV activity caused by the sun . (1990’s)
The rapid increase of internal entropy forces a decrease in external entropy . Social disorder increases .
In the absence of extreme point-sources of zeropoint energy , entropy can be taken as fairly uniform over large volumes . (Close to a conservation principle)
So , if internal order per individual increases , the external social order decreases .
The more radio , TV , computers , solar flares , the greater the social unrest .
If the EMV pulse goes over a certain threshold , masked mutations are released and the cancer rate goes up .
HIV
The virus is reasonably successful because the mechanisms that would normally choose an optimal pathway to combat it is masked by the increase in entropy .
Their quantum mechanism is disturbed .
Just restoring a Faraday cage is not sufficient , as the balance has already been disturbed .
The internal entropy needs to be increased .
Blasting the organism with really random electromagnetic waves will drastically increase the disorder inside it , in contrast with the ordering waves it is exposed to .
Hopefully , quantum choices of optimal pathways are then made in a MORE noisy environment . Resonance effects come into play .
Really random is extremely difficult .
But how to get really random EM waves economically ?
Applause .
This is the wavefront of thousands of people clapping hands in a semi-random fashion. Fairly random .
Listening to applause for an hour loudly should reset some random counters .
