Botox and Running .


Botox and Running .


Andre Willers
27 Apr 2013
Synopsis:
Low-grade botulism poisoning degrades athletic performance because of low-grade nervous paralysis .
 
Discussion :
1.Eating any food that has been cooked  for less than 15 minutes at 100C will slow you down .
2.This is because of very low levels of botulism toxin  .
3.Proteins  certainly . But some veggies are very pro-botox : Potatoes , mushrooms , cauliflower , asparagus , kale .

I was so proud of my Cauliflower low carb putu-pap . See http://andreswhy.blogspot.com/2013/03/low-carb-putu-pap.html
I didn’t get pains  , just weakness . Low-grade nerve paralysis .
Bah !

 4. Present problems :
I self-diagnosed low-grade botulism poisoning . 
Symptoms : 
Leg weakness. General muscle weakness .
Swollen ankles
Nausea
Diarrhiaea . 
Shortness of breath . Panting . Panic stations . 

5. Alcohol and nicotine helped .

6.I suspect (from google) that alcohol and nicotine displaces the botulism molecule at the 
receptor site . Any comments ?

7. Has C. Botulinum mutated to create botox stable at higher temperatures ?

http://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_do_you_denature_botulism_toxin
1. _C. botulinum_ bacterium dies at 212 F/ 100 C.
2. _C. botulinum_ spores die at 240 F/ 116 C.
3. Botulism toxin denatures at 185 F/ 85 C.
**(All temperatures must be maintained for least 15 minutes, and the heat must be consistent throughout the food, fluid, and jar.)**
4. _C. botulinum_ spores cannot hatch in strong acid solutions of pH 4.6 or below. (Some sources claim pH 4.7.)
5. _C. botulinum_ cannot grow, develop, or multiply in food with a water content of less than 35%. (Food dehydrators have another set of toxic pests to worry about, see IV.6 about aflatoxin.) 

 
This means that you can eat even rotten meat if you heat it over 85C for at least 15 minutes. Soup ! . This multiplies hominin food supplies  by a factor of at least three .
And the pot ? A watertight woven basket with hot stones dropped in . See http://andreswhy.blogspot.com/2008/04/combs-andre-willers-24-april-2008.html

8. Is the general nerve repair mechanism still operative ?
Like ALA
 See below Appendix 1

9. Veggie culprits:
In order : Potatoes , mushrooms . cauliflower , asparagus , kale
Microwaving is the problem . They have to be cooked at 100C for at least 15 minutes . Especially for those fractal (veggies or large (potatoes) .

10. interesting aside :
Athletes who eat microwaved heated food less than 15 min will suffer a decrease in performance due to low-grade botulinism nerve poisoning .

Appendix 1

Botox and Anti-Botox.
Andre Willers
8 Dec 2012
Synopsis:
Botox is a semi-hibernation drug . Look at the Sulfur in the molecule . Anti-botox would then be a variant of recovering from hibernation .
Discussion :
1.This explains a lot of things .
2.Why should a simple bacterium have evolved such a powerful block ? Because it is a left-over from hibernation systems .
3.It is far more than a simple acetylcholine block . It originally stopped nerve transmission dead , as part of the H2S hibernation .
4.The system treats the damage as peripheral neuropathy . This can be treated (see previous posts)
5.Reprogramming the astrocytes . See appendix I . The same thing .
They used continual electrical stimulation of the notochord . No training . the body repaired itself .I presume that the same will hold for anti-botox .
6. We would prefer a chemical . Luckily one is at hand :
The anti-botox .
Alpha lipoic acid .
7. What does all this crap mean ?
It means that you can freeze muscles by using botox , then unfreeze them in particular patterns using Alpha Lipoic Acid .
8.Small concentrations of botox puts muscles in hibernation . Smaller concentrations of ALA restores the non-frown bits .
9.Interesting question : How many anti-botox (ie anti-hibernation) points on the face are needed to show animation ? My guess is about six . Humans are simple .
10. The Good doctor can make money by taking away the wrinkles all over , and restoring them in the meaningful places . With full consent , of course .
11.I must admit . I did not expect a full Hibernation – antiHibernation system so ready at hand .

Lethargically yours

Appendix I
Paralysis breakthrough: spinal cord damage repaired

Paralysis may no longer mean life in a wheelchair. A man who is paralysed from the trunk down has recovered the ability to stand and move his legs unaided thanks to training with an electrical implant.
Andrew Meas of Louisville, Kentucky, says it has changed his life (see "I suddenly noticed I can move my pinkie", below). The stimulus provided by the implant is thought to have either strengthened persistent "silent" connections across his damaged spinal cord or even created new ones, allowing him to move even when the implant is switched off.
The results are potentially revolutionary, as they indicate that the spinal cord is able to recover its function years after becoming damaged.
Appendix II
Reprogramming it
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lipoic_acid
Alpha lipoic Acid

Previous studies in animals with lower limb paralysis have shown that continuous electrical stimulation of the spinal cord below the area of damage allows an animal to stand and perform Lipoic acid (LA), also known as α-lipoic acid[2] and alpha lipoic acid (ALA)[3] is an organosulfur compound derived from octanoic acid. LA contains two sulfur atoms (at C6 and C8) connected by a disulfide bond and is thus considered to be oxidized (although either sulfur atom can exist in higher oxidation states)locomotion-like movements. That's because ...

Poets and Spies


Poets and spies .


Andre Willers
27 Apr 2013

Synopsis :
Intuitive poetical paranoia makes for good spies .

Discussion :
1.Poets are drawn to intuitive connections . Like bees to nectar .
2. Spies depend on them for survival . Like flies to aspidistra .
3. Any reasonable poet is a potential paranoid , as long as he does not get into a position of power .
4. Then all those metaphors connecting distant meanings translates into lopped-off heads .
See Appendix A .
 
5.Beware of poets .
“The heart does not know itself
In grasping all , it loses all .”

Andre

Appendix A
A very short list of Poets who are  Lovers , spies and tyrants .



c.Hendry VIII poems :

The poet and the painter .

A real-life poet , spy and secret policeman .
At least he had the sense to limit his paranoia to fiction .

 Angleton was a poet and, as a Yale undergraduate, editor, with Reed Whittemore, of the literary magazine Furioso, which published many of the best-known poets of the inter-war period .
Ultra-secret enforcer in WW II .
In 1954 he was tasked with the assassination of Alan Turing on direct orders of Churchill  and Eisenhower (for short-term political gains) . This broke him . Paranoia and despair .
He never got over the apple .

g.Ivan the Terrible
“Ivan was a poet, a composer of considerable talent, and supported the arts. His Orthodox liturgical hymn, "Stichiron No. 1 in Honor of St. Peter", and fragments of his letters were put into music by Soviet composer Rodion Shchedrin. The recording was released in 1988, marking the millennium of Christianity in Russia, and was the first Soviet-produced CD.”
 
h. Napoleon .
His love letters were free-form poems . Quite good ones  , too .
Notice that the bit below is a poem , but trying to recast it into a more traditional format destroys it . That takes a bit of talent .

Napoleon Bonaparte to Josephine De Beauharnais
Paris, December 1795



I wake filled with thoughts of you. Your portrait and the intoxicating evening which we spent yesterday have left my senses in turmoil. 
Sweet incomparable Josephine, what a strange effect you have on my heart! 
Are you angry? 
Do I see you looking sad? Are you worried? ... 
My soul aches with sorrow, and there can be no rest for your lover; but is there still more in store for me when, yielding to the profound feelings which overwhelm me, I draw from your lips, from your heart a love which consumes me with fire? Ah! it was last night that I fully realized how false an image of you your portrait gives!
You are leaving at noon; I shall see you in three hours. 
Until then, mio dolce amor, a thousand kisses; but give me none in return, for they set my blood on fire.

Grovelling for Survival .


Grovelling for Survival


Andre Willers
25 Apr 2013
Synopsis :
Evolution is 1/3 competition and 2/3 cooperation . This is reflected in human word frequencies . humans grovel through alliances , or plain abasement .
 
Discussion :
1. The 1/3 ratio’s have been established in in http://andreswhy.blogspot.com/2008/01/infinite-probes-in-optimization.html . They are universal , but interpretation can be tricky .
2.See Appendix A . The synonym-antonym ratio’s . This can do with considerable expansion , but the pattern seems clear . Cooperation is favoured by 2/3 .
3. Why grovelling ?
Because most social systems are hierarchical in a fractal fashion .
The Sierpinsky systems optimize on obedience . Ie grovelling . Every human is both a tyrant and a groveller .
 
4. A teensy conflict . There is a bottom floor on the optimum number of grovelers , namely 1 263 .
 
5. This churns the system .
As the system grows more efficient , there is less room for new entrants . This leads to revolution .
Typical is  Luther : “Here I stand; I can do no otherwise. God help me. Amen!”
Speech at the Diet of Worms (1521), reported in Josiah Hotchkiss Gilbert, Dictionary of Burning Words of Brilliant Writers (1895), p. 186; and in Bartlett's Familiar Quotations, 10th ed. (1919).

6. How to grovel :
Amazingly , I could find only one website on this important social skill . http://evilhow.com/tiki-index.php?page=How+to+grovel
Are we supposed to grow up knowing how to cooperate , grovel , compete ? They laughingly call it socialization . No wonder there is such a plethora of human and physical ruins due to civil wars . See http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=16105240#editor/target=post;postID=2256036101825330840;onPublishedMenu=template;onClosedMenu=template;postNum=18;src=postname
 
I could not find any Dummy or Idiots guide on how to grovel . Or anything on Google . Yet it is a fundamental skill to survive in any hierarchical social system .
 
7.  How to be a bully .
The companion volume .
Obedience in 1/3 of the population can only be compelled . (Laws) . For this we need enforcers . Bullies .
 
8. Most humans are simultaneously bullies and grovelers . The trick is to do it so the social is fabric  is enhanced .
 All that yakkity-yak about discipline and leadership .
This can be trained , but can we have some manuals ?
 
9.Teenagers :
They really need it . Even whenthey want to grovel , they don’t know how to . This appears as rebelliousness to the parent .
 
“Hear and tremblingly obey !”
 
Andre

Twitter and URL


Twitter and URL


Andre Willers
25 Apr 2013
Synopsis :
Why is Twitter so popular ?  Because it reaches 98.85% of the search space .
 
Discussion :
1.See Appendix AAA
Twitter started with a 140 char limitation . Then added URL’s . Then shortened the URL’s to 20 bytes . https://support.twitter.com/articles/78124-posting-links-in-a-tweet
This means that a max of 140/20 = 7  . allowing for some other characters , this means that 6 URL’s can be added .
This is a Small-world Network .

This reaches any search space with 98.85% efficiency .
With an infinite number of characters in the targets of the URL’s .
 
2. Twitter is then simply a news network on steroids . With infinite depth .  But with a handy abstraction effect .  
Twitter is smarter .
 
3.Why does the military like it so much ? .
A new user immediately notices all the US military who want to be followed . They know that the data self-assembles into credible threats . They just want more data .
Also , it is just cool .
 
4.Lies and Twitter :
Roughly 2/3 of anything on Twitter are lies .
Humans having fun and profit .
Humans prefer a mixture of 2/3 lies and 1/3 truth .
A Celebrity mixes these up in a fractal froth .
 
5. Twitter with URL’s can reach where ordinary  URL’s cant .
 
All this for only a AAA battery and my wife’s virginity ?
 
You see what I mean .

Appendix AAA
Six Degrees of Separation Derivation


Andre Willers
27 Jan 2013
Synopsis :
We derive Reliability Percentages for Degrees of Separation from first principles of Small World Networks . Six Degrees has at most 98.85% reliability .

Discussion :
See Para 15 below for a real surprise .

1.Small-world Networks :
“A small-world network is a type of mathematical graph in which most nodes are not neighbors of one another, but most nodes can be reached from every other by a small number of hops or steps. Also known as degrees of separation .”

The major principle is that not all points(nodes) are interconnected . The nodes are clustered , with clusters connected by long connections
2.Examine an existing Small-world network in 2 dimensions . Sketch it on a piece of paper (2 dimensional) . The connections are shown as lines .
3.Define a Start node . The sender of the original message .
4.Then connect the Start Node with every other node , counting the number connections as Hops . This is computationally possible (not Hard) because not all nodes are connected .
5.Now , rewrite the Network Map in terms of Hops , Hops being the radius units from the Start node .
This gives a map of circular bands around the Start node as origin . The bands include all the nodes outside the Start node , with many duplicates .
The duplicates are important . Cluster n-hops are in them .
This is basically a Riemann-orbital system . See Appendix H .
6. The Trick !
We minimize the system by squeezing any wandering test path on the system to return to the Starter Node .
In effect , Riemann’s theorem . We know that it returns to the origin if the real exponent = -1/2 .
(The only-if part exp=-1/2 is evident , but the theoreticians and red-pencil brigade have too much fun nit-picking)
7. The upperbound :
We can then calculate the Upperbound and Reliability percentage :
The actual Zeta = Sigma(x(i) / i^(1/2) , i=1 , 2, 3 ….
Where -1<= x(i) <=+1 at Beth(0) random for any i .
For the upper boundary , we set x(i) = 1 .
This gives :
Zeta (upper) = 1+(1/2)^0.5 + (1/3)^0.5 + (1/4)^0.5 + …
The Sum(n) = 1+(1/2)^0.5 + (1/3)^0.5 + (1/4)^0.5 + …+(1/n)^0.5 , the sum of Zeta(upper) to the n’th term . This is increasing .
The Diff(n) = (1/n)^0.5 – (1/(n+1))^0.5 is the difference between successive terms .This is decreasing
The Ratio(n) = Diff(n) / Sum(n) and is decreasing .
The Percentage Reliability PR(n) = (1-Ratio(n)) x 100
8.Table of Upperbound Reliability percentages for minimized Small-world Networks :
N denotes number of degrees (hops) in PR(n) below
PR(1) = 70.71%
PR(2) = 92.40%
PR(3) = 93.97%
PR(4) = 97.02%
PR(5) = 98.47%
PR(6) = 98.89%
PR(7) = 99.11%

9.What does this mean ?
It means “you pays your money and you takes your pick “
You get the most bang for your buck at about n=6 .
Small-world networks are very efficient at distributing information .
Remember , this is a very general derivation .

10 .What if just one node is left out ?
I suspect that the above will still hold .
It is a topological suspicion (the worst kind) . Even one little puncture causes a major shift in topological classifications .
In the class of “a little bit pregnant”
This has major consequences in the real world .
Plan on that there is always somebody on the “need-to-know” list being left out . This might be you .

11. What if many nodes are left out ?
Surprisingly , the system will default to 70% efficiency . Civil Service level . But remember that this is only the upperbound .
But is this then the Lowerbound for PR(2) and better ? I Think so , but some deeper analysis is called for .
No wonder civilization manages to struggle along .
Notice how close it is to 67% of Appendix H Infinite Probes .

12.The Family Paradox :
“My spouse does not understand me .”
Of course they don’t . You are at PR(1) = 70% reliability as long as you communicate directly (eg language) . Just about bottommed out .
Add some more nodes . Usually this is children , grandparents , friends , hobbies , interests .
But different levels like emails , notes , flowers , presents , etc will work .
Even saving the Dodo .
Join the Dodo Liberation Army .

13. This is equally applicable to your work environment .

14. A surprising application .
How to turn your personal network into a Small-world network .
(Then you can use the system as described above )
14.1 Get long-range contacts . Pen-friends . Internet friends (but be careful) .
Even one will change the topology of your network .
You don’t have to frantically network .
14.2 Virtual Topologies :
An imaginary friend .
These are available .
Notice the interesting addition of Internet at the bottom of Maslow’s hierarchy of needs .
A Facebook account for an imaginary friend with strict access control will bounce parental communication with a child from 70% to 90% .

15.Marital Problems :
Or even between couples who have communication problems . A virtual friend on Facebook where only the two partners have access will increase communication by a whopping 20% !
What a surprise !
Not exactly what I was expecting .

15. Upgrading to higher dimensional networks .
Project the many hops onto a two-dimensional space as above . Then crumple them . See Appendix C .
This collapses into the same Riemannian space as discussed above

16. Virtual Topologies :


Viva La Dodo Liberation Army !

Infinite Probes 2
Andre Willers
30 April 2008

http://andreswhy.blogspot.com “Infinite Probes’

From discussing this with various recipients , there seems to be a need for a simpler explanation . I thought I had explained it in the simplest fashion possible . The subject matter is inherently complex .

But , here goes .

How much must you save ?
If you save too little , a random fluctuation can wipe you out .
If you save too much , you lose opportunity costs . If you are in competition , this loss can be enough to lose the competition (ie you die)

Intuitively , you can realize there is an optimum level of saving .

Methods exist of calculating this optimum in very specific instances (ie portfolios of shares ,eg Kelly criteria , or tactics in war eg MiniMax ) .

The General Case
We need to hold a Reserve in case Something goes wrong . But we do not know what thing goes wrong .

Infinite Probes tries to answer the general case . What is really , really surprising is that a answer is possible .

The Infinite bit comes from using the mathematical expansion of the Definition of Eulers Constant e = ( 1 + 1/2! + 1/ 3! + … 1/n! + …)
Where n!= n*(n-1)*(n-2)*(n-3)*…*(1)

This approaches a constant , widely used in mathematics and physics .
(e = 2.718…) .

All we need is a system that can be subdivided indefinitely (to infinity) .

First , we divide by 1
Then 2
Then 3
Then 4

And so forth till infinity .

What is important is not that we do know what these divisions are , only that they are possible . We also do not know which one element goes wrong .

The other critical insight is that it is the relation between elements that is important . (Permutations) (The failure of an element in total isolation cannot affect the whole system by definition .)

We can count the number of relationships where there is failure of one element .
It is n! , where n is number of divisions where only one failure .

Multiple failures are handled by summing :

Our Reserve(R ) is divided by n to infinity and summed .

TotReserve= R*( 1 + 1/2! + 1/ 3! + … 1/n! + …)
TotReserve= R * e

To find the boundaries of our Reserve , we set TotReserve = Cost

Then

R = 1/e * Cost
R ~ 0.37 * Cost

What does this mean?
This method measures the upper boundary of the reserve needed to survive failures in any element of the Cost-Universe . Ie , internal fluctuations .

This is the surprising bit . Any society that keeps at least 37% reserves , can only be destroyed by something outside it’s envelope . It is internally stable , no matter what .

Empires like the Ancient Egyptians , Romans , Chinese are possible , as long as there is no climactic fluctuation , new inventions , diseases ,etc . Rare events . Hence the technological stasis of old civilizations . The two are synonymous .

This is true at any scale (except quantal , by definition.) .

Individuals too . Humans can be seen as empires of noospheres .

The upper boundary does not take any double-counting into account . It is true for any system whatsoever .

A truly remarkable precise result from such general axioms .

The Lower Boundaries .
This is where it gets interesting .
Remember , we are just counting the number of ways in which permutations of one element can fail . We then sum them to get the effect of the failures of other elements

The easiest is the business that just starts and is not selling anything . It fails on n elements on every term . It’s floor capital must then be
R=Cost/(1+e)
R=0.27*Cost

This is the initial reserve to get off the ground .
This is true in any ecosystem . This is why it is so difficult to start a new business , or why a new species cannot succeed . Or why waves of pandemics are scarcer .

For the epidemically minded , this 10% difference is responsible for the demise of the Black Death ( smallpox outcompeted bubonic plaque variants for the CR5 access site.Ironically , the reason why we have only a limited HIV plague is the high competition for this site , probably some flu vectors . As one would expect , the incidence of HIV then becomes inversely proportional to connectivity (ie flights) .

A cessation of airplane flights will then lead to a flare-up of diseases like these .
Not exactly what anybody has in mind . )

When we find that we really need the spread of infectious vectors to stay healthy , then we know we have really screwed ourselves .

These are the two main boundaries .
The literature is full of other limits the series can approach . Keep a clear head on what the physical significance is .

Fat
I cannot leave the subject without the thing closest to human hearts : appearance .
Fat and fitness .
Sadly , the present fad for leanness is just that . The period of superfluous food is coming to an end .
Rich individuals can afford to be lean because the reserves are in the monetary wealth Women have to bear children individually , so they cannot store the needed reserves externally . Hence their fat storage is close to the theoretical optimum even in Western societies (33%) . In other societies the percentage is about 37-40% .

Human males have been bred (Mk III humans) for muscle and little fat (8% in a superbly fit male) . He does not have reserves to withstand even garrison duty (even little diseases will lay him low .) Note the frequent references to diseases laying whole armies low .

Note what is left out : the camp-followers . They survived The women and babyfat children . Every army seeded the invaded area with women and children .

The bred soldier has to eat a high-carb food frequently : not meat or fat , his body cannot store it . This is the definition of a wheat-eating legionary .

Ho ! Ho! Ho!
The Atkinson diet .
No wonder it does not make sense in evolutionary terms .
Mesomorphic humans have been bred not to transform expensive proteins and fats into bodymass .

The soldier-class were kept on a carbohydrate leash , which could only be supplied by farming .


The Smell of Horses .

Horses exude pheromones that promote body-leanness in humans . This has an obvious advantage to horses . Horses are breeding jockeys .

The time-span is enough : at least 8 000 years . (400 generations)

Because pregnant women cannot ride horses , there was a selection pressure to breed horses who have a pheromone that block female dominance pheromones , especially since females have to weigh more because of fat-reserve considerations .

Outside a farming environment , horses will sculpt their riders as much as the riders are sculpting them .

Small Mongolian ponies , small Mongolians .

This is why alpha-males like horses and horse-dominated societies were able to conquer and keep matriarchies .

Note the effect of the pheromones on women riders . Androgeny .
On males it becomes extreme blockage of oestrogen . It seems like a surge of male hormones , but it is just an imbalance . (If too much male hormones , the men just kill their horses )

This is why the auto-mobile had such a big sociological effect . No horses , so the men became more effeminate .

Want to be Lean and Mean ?
Sniff Horse sweat pheromone .
Perfumiers take note .

Dogs

The other leg of the human-horse-dog triumvirate .
Dogs accept female pack-leaders and have evolutionary reasons for blocking horse inhibitions of human female pheromones .

While the males are away , the females look after and rely on the dogs .
(The reason why Mongols ride from yurt to yurt: they are too scared of the dogs.)

With dogs around , the male testosterone activity is ameliorated . This is a well known effect , especially if horses are around .

Hence the female love of lap-dogs . They are actually quite ferocious , and exude large amounts of pheromones that soothes the savage male breast .

Your attention is drawn to the Pekinese lapdog , which has had a disproportionately large effect on human history .

If this sounds convoluted , it is because this is exactly how this type of bio-system operates : by inhibitions of inhibitions of inhibitions ,etc .

Appendix IV A
Orders of Randomness 2
Andre Willers
15 Aug 2008

See http://andreswhy.blogspot.com : “Orders of Randomness”

I have been requested to expand a little on orders of Randomness and what it means .
Please note that human endeavours at this date use only randomness of the order of flipping a coin ( Beth(0) )

Aleph is the first letter of the Hebrew Alphabet . It was used by Cantor to denote
Classes of Infinity (ie Aleph(0) for Rational numbers , Aleph(1) for Irrational Numbers , etc

Beth is the second letter of the Hebrew Alfabet . It means “House”

I will first repeat the derivation of Orders of Randomness from http://andreswhy.blogspot.com : “Orders of Randomness” because it is so important .

----------------xxxxxx
Start Quote:
First , simple Randomness .
Flip of a coin .
Heads or Tails . 0 or 1
Flip an unbiased coin an infinite number of times ,write it down below each other and do it again .
All possible 0 and 1’s

An example : Beth(0)
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Flips(1) 0,1,1,1,1,… etc
Flips(2) 0,1,1,1,0,… etc
.
Flips(infinity) 0,0,0,0,0,0,…etc
Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

This describes all possible states in a delineated binary universe .
“delineated binary” means a two sided coin which cannot land on it’s side .

Now draw a diagonal line from the top left of Flips(1) to Flips(infinity) .
At every intersection of this diagonal line with a horizontal line , change the value .
The Diagonal Line of (0,1)’s is then not in the collection of all possible random
Horizontal coin-Flips(x) .

This means the Diagonal Line is of a stronger order of randomness .
This is also the standard proof of an Irrational Number .

This is the standard proof of aleph numbers .
Irrational numbers ,etc
Since any number can be written in binary (0,1) , we can infer that the order of randomness is the same as aleph numbers .

This means we can use number theory in Randomness systems .
Very important .

Google Cantor (or Kantor)

Define coin-flip Randomness as Beth(0) , analogous to Aleph(0)
Then we have at least Beth(1) , randomness an order stronger than flipping a coin .
Then we can theorize Beth(Omega) <->Aleph(Omega) .

End Quote
----------------xxxxxx

Cardinal Numbers .

The cardinal number is the index x of Aleph(x) .
Cantor proved that
Aleph(n+1) = 2 ^ Aleph( n )

Where n is the cardinal number of the infinity .

Tying them together :
He also proved that
P(A) = 2^ n
Where A is any set , P(A) is the PowerSet of A and n is the cardinal number of set A
Thus , Cardinal Number of P(A) =(n+1)

The PowerSet of A = the Set of all subsets of A .
This sounds fancy , but it is simply all the different ways you can combine the elements of set A . All the ways you can chop up A .
You can see it easily in a finite binomial expansion (1+1)^n = P(A) = 2^n

See http://andreswhy.blogspot.com : “Infinite Probes”
There we also chop and dice , using infinite series .

Can you see how it all ties together ?

Why 2 ?

This derives from the Delineation Axiom . Remember , we can only talk about something if it is distinct and identifiable from something else . This gives a minimum of 2 states : part or non-part .

That is why the Zeta-function below is described on a 2-dimensional plane , or pesky problems like Primes always boil down to 2 dimensions of some sort .

This is why the irrational numbers play such an important part in physics .
Z=a+ib describes a 2-dimensional plane useful for delineated systems without feedback systems

Its in the axiom of Delineation , dummy .

But we know that Russell proved that A+~A
The difference can be described as the Beth sequences . Since they are derivatives of summation-sequences(see below) , they define arrows usually seen as the time-arrows .

These need not to be described a-la-dunne’s serial time , as different Beth levels address the problem adequately without multiplying hypotheses .



Self-referencing systems and Beth sequences .

A Proper Self-referencing system is of one cardinal Beth number higher than the system it derives from .
Self-referencing systems (feedback systems) can always be described as sequences of Beth systems . Ie as Beth(x) <-> Beth(y) . The formal proof is a bit long for inclusion here .

The easiest way to see it is in Bayesian systems . If Beth(x) systems are included , Bayesian systems become orders of magnitude more effective .

Life , civilization and markets are such . See below .

Conservation Laws :
By definition , these can always be written in a form of
SomeExpression = 0

Random (Beth(0) Walk in Euclidean 2-dimensions

This is a powerful unifying principle derived from the Delineation Axiom .

In Random Walk the Distance from the Center is = d * (n)^0.5 . This is a property of Euclidean systems .
(Where d = step , n=number of random beth(0) steps)

Immediately we can say that the only hope of the Walker returning to the center after an infinity of Beth(0) steps is if d ~ 1/(n)^0.5 . This is the Riemann Hypothesis .

Now , see a Universum of 2-dimensional descriptors z=a+ib

Sum all of them . Add together all the possible things that can be thus described .

This can be done as follows :
From z=a+ib Raise both sides to the e
e^(z) = e^(a) . e^i(b)
Raise both sides to the ln(j) power where j is real integers.
j^(z) = j^(a) . e^(b/ln(j))

Now , sum them :
Zeta=Sum of j^(z) for j=1 to infinity

Now we extract all possible statements that embody some Conservation Law . Beth(1)

This means that Zeta is zero for the set of extracted statements if and only if (b/ln(j)) is of the order of Beth(0) and a=(-1/2)

Tensors .
The above is a definition of a tensor for a discontinous function .

Riemann’s Zeta function.
This can describe any delineated system .
If Zeta = 0 , conservation laws apply .

Zeta = Sigma(1/j )^z for j=1,2,3,…,infinity and z=a+ib , where z is complex and i =(-1)^0.5
The z bit is in two dimensions as discussed above .

This function has a deep underlying meaning for infinite systems .
If you unpack the Right-Hand side on a x-yi plane you get a graph that looks like a random walk .

If every point is visited that a random walk would visit over infinity (ie all) , without clumping , then Zeta can only be non-trivially zero if a=(-1/2) .

Why (x – yi) plane ? See “Why 2 “ above . The system is fractal . Two dimensions are necessary in any delineated system .

Remember , randomwalk distance from origin = step*sqrt(number of steps) .
So if the steps = 1/ ( sqrt(number of steps) ) , then the Origin might be reached if and only if a= -1/2
This is easily proven .

If a= - 1/2 , then b can be any real function . This would include Beth(0) and Beth(1) , but not higher orders of beth .

If a= -1/2 and b is an unreal number , then a cannot be equal to -1/2 anymore . Conservation cannot hold at any level .

Consequences:
Conservation Laws can only hold for Beth(0) and Beth(1) systems .

This is forced by the two dimensions of delineation .

Mathematically , this means that Beth(2+) systems of feedbacks can only be described in terms of attractors or/and fractal systems (ie not in isolation)

Physically , conservation of energy and momentum need not hold for Beth(2+) systems .

This has an interesting corollary in decryption (unpacking) . A Beth(2) mind unpacking Beth(0) or Beth(1) encryption is functionally equivalent to Non-Conservation of Energy

Appendix B
For Blast
Blast from the Past

Synopsis:
High intensities of gamma- and X-ray radiation on Earth from the center of our galaxy can be expected during 2013 AD , due to an infalling gas cloud into the central Milky Way black hole .

Discussion :
The discovery was made by Stefan Gillesson of the Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics
in Garching , Germany .
References :
  1. “Nature” , DOI 10.1038/nature10652
  2. “New Scientist” 17 Dec 2011 p16 “Cloud suicide could transform black hole”

A gas cloud of an estimated three earth masses is expected to impact the supermassive , rotating black hole at the center of our galaxy (“Sagittarius A*”) in 2013 AD . Note that radiation from this event can be expected shortly afterward in local time .

A large part of this mass will be converted to electro-magnetic energy .

Now , three earth masses is not a lot of energy in the galactic scheme of things , but the way it is distributed does .

Briefly , the energy release is characterized by very short wavelenghts (gamma or x-ray) and lobe-shaped distributions of the pulse-wavefronts in the galactic ecliptic .

There is a combination of relativistic and quantum effects in the last few cm's before the event horizon .

1.There is a slingshot effect , because the gas cloud must be lumpy , even if only at atomic scale . The gas cloud vanishes in a few Planck -time units , emitting very short-wave radiation due to differential tidal friction .

2.But the black hole is large and rotating , which forms time-bands of slower time , which gives enough time for feedback . Depending on the size and rotation speed of the black hole , this will lead to 2n lobes of wavefronts on the rotation equator , where n=1,2,3,...

3.Hawking Burps .
This process in para 2 above “foams” the event horizon , leading to a drastically increased Hawking radiation . (The “foam” would be something like Sierpinsky chaotic triangles)
The density and time-band concentrations of energy separates particle-anti-particle pairs to give Hawking radiation .

This burp of energy sweeps matter from the neighborhood of the black hole and reduces the mass of the black hole , preventing black holes from swallowing everything . Elegant .

4.Turning a Hawking Burp into a White Hole .
There is a narrow window where the Burp becomes self-sustaining . A large black hole then evaporates in an awesome release of energy . Even the tiniest random fluctuation (eg matter-antimatter) will get magnified and perpetuated .
Not the place to take your mother for a picnic .

5.Foaming Space-time .
Well , space-time is already foamed , but only to a simple level . (Quantum foam)
Call it Foam(0)
We can churn this to higher orders of foam (Foam(1) , Foam(2) , Foam(3) ,...,Foam(b) )
where b can be derived from Kantor's Aleph classes combined with chaos theory .

Taken to the logical extreme , this leaves only Foam ordered into Branes .

The smile on the Cheshire cat just after he brushed his teeth .

So what does this mean to us ?
A full frontal impact from a lobe will give a definitive answer to Fermi's Paradox : “Where are they ?” Why , extinct .

More likely is an immersion in the higher radiation levels alongside the lobes for a long time .
Can be survived , given enough warning .
Apply to the Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics for more .

Friday the thirteenth can be quite a gas .

Appendix C
Crumpling Paper and Space-Time
Andre Willers
23 Feb 2012

“The moving finger writes , and having writ , crumples it in random ruins.”
With apologies to Omar Khayyam .

Synopsis:
Crumpled paper gives a good approximation of spacetime as a membrane with clumpy masses .
“Empty” spaces not occupied by the membrane gives an impression of dark matter .
We derive an expression to give this ratio using Infinite Descent and Beth(0) Random Walk .

Discussion :
1.The Crumpled paper :
Consider a paper disk of radius r and thickness d .
It's volume is then Vp=pi * r^2 * d
Draw a line from the center to the edge , in steps of length d , over the edge , then back to the center Let nu=r/d , a measure of the thickness of the paper . Note that it is a pure number .

The number of steps in the line is then n0=(2r/d)+1
But the number of steps to the edge of the original paper disk is n1=r/d=(n0-1)/2
r=d*(n0-1)/2
n0=2*nu+1

Vp=(pi*d^3*(n0-1)^2 )/4

Crumple it up in a way that is as random as flipping a coin (ie Beth(0) )

The Trick : The line we have drawn up above breaks up into random vectors by rotating through a third dimension = crumpling into a ball .

We thus have a continuous line of random steps of known number of steps .
In 3 dimensions , the mean square distance from the center then is known
R = d * (n0)^0.5 …. See true for all dimensions as long as all are of Beth(0) order of randomness.


Volume of crumpled ball Vb=4/3*pi*R^3
The Ratio Vb/Vp = mu then gives the ratio of crumpled ball space to volume of paper mass .

Mu={4/3*pi*d^3 *n0^(3/2)} / (pi*d^3*(n0-1)^2 )/4
Notice the d^3 term and pi cancels out . This has profound physical implications .
This simplifies to

Mu=4*4/3*(n0^3/2/(n0-1)^2)
Expressed as thickness of paper , nu , which is a pure number independent of metric chosen .
mu=4*4/3(2*nu+1)^3/2 / (2*nu)^2
mu=4/3*(2nu+1)^3/2 / nu^2
This gives a quartic equation in nu , which can be solved exactly algebraically .
(mu)^2*(nu)*4 – 2^7/3^2 *(nu)^3 – 2^6/3^2 (nu)^2 – 2^5/3^2 * (nu)^1 - 2^4/3^2 =0


Test it on A4 paper:
A4 paper has thickness d~0,1 mm and r~150 mm
nu=150/0,1
nu=1500
mu=4/3*(3001^3/2)/(1500^2)
mu=0.097421589
mu= 1- 0.90257841
This means that the crumpled A4 paper ball encloses about 90% empty space .
This agrees with experimental results . See NewScientist.

Note that the force applied does not matter . As long as the paper is untorn , mu will be the same .

How many times can it be folded ?
Solving the above (see below) gives mu=1 for about nu=14.7 to 14.8 .
This means there are no empty spaces left to fold into .

This can get complicated , so I will keep it simple .
Take a piece of paper and fold it . You then have a new piece of paper .The test-circle of same r will have double the thickness .
Ie , nu will double .
Between 7 and 8 folds , nu will hit the ceiling of mu=1 , regardless of the starting value of nu .
This is the maximum number of paper folds , as confirmed from other sources .

Physical interpretations :
Take an m-dimensional space . Randomness of order Beth(0) applies equally to all . The underlying equalizer . Collapse it to three dimensions and let the third one approach single Planck lengths .
Then we can use the above paper approximation . Notice how d cancels out except for an addition of 1 in final ratio .

What does it mean ?
See the physical universe as a brane (ie sheet of paper) in a multiverse . Crumpling it means it has mass and singularities . Both are aspects of the same thing .
An estimate of the number of singularities can be made from edges and points in crumpled paper .

Can we crumple the paper to a ball that is just paper ?
That is a particle .
The answer is “Yes” .

Such crumpling means that mu=1 (no empty space in any dimension )
This gives an quartic equation in nu that solves to four values , other dimensions than three denoted by i=(-1)^0.5

See http://www.1728.org/quartic.htm for a calculator
nu1= 14.722181 (this makes the physical particle universe possible . Mass .
Nu2= - 0.004167 + i*0.49558 (Rotation :Spin :charge and magnetism)
nu3 = - 0.004167 - i*0.49558 (Rotation :Spin :charge and magnetism) notice the minus sign .
Nu4= - 0.49164542 (quantum effects as the particles dither. Inertia?)

What does a negative nu mean ?
nu=r/d . A negative nu means one of r or d must be negative .
1.If r is negative , it can be interpreted as curled up dimensions , inside the “outside” dimensions as defined by i . See http:andreswhy.blogspot.com “ The inside of zero” Aug 2009
2.If d is negative , it can be interpreted as quantum effects . A particle does not “occupy” all the space . Likes hopscotch .
3.But notice the the two are interrelated .The notorious observer effect . Where we place the minus sign between r or d .

There should be relationships between nu2 , nu3 and nu4 . Various rotations between macro- and micro dimensions .
This means the contraption is not symmetrical But we already know that ,

Physical constants :
Things like charge , mass , etc should be derivable from these basics . Hint:use lots of crumpled paper .

There is hope . The fact that it is quartic equation , which is always solvable , means that the Universe can be understood . Complicated and perverse , but as long as you stick to Beth(0) randomness , it can be understood . For higher orders of randomness , good luck .

Dark Matter :
I nearly forgot . Using Planck units , we can define the ratio of thickness of the brane as
nu=c*PlanckTime/(1*Planck Time)
nu=c = 3*10^8
This gives a
Mu=4/3*(2c+1)^3/2 / c^2
Simplifying (c is very large) . This gives the approximation
mu=4/3* 2^1.5 / c^0.5
mu=2.1773242 * 10^ (-4)
mu = 1-0.999783357
This means that 99.9783357 % of the universe can be interpreted as being “Dark Matter”.
Ie with attractive and repulsive qualities . Basically empty space .
May you have joy of that .

An interesting aside :Creative artists .
How many pieces of paper does an artist need to crumple up and throw away before he finds something acceptable ?
Something acceptable would translate to mu=1 . Thus , we can say 7-8 truly random foldings should give a result .
The same holds for cryptanalysis or any attempt to find an unknown .
Algorithm :
Try 8 times , crumple , then put it aside and try again later .
There is a quantum connection , strange as it might seem .

And what about a nice little Crumpling App for smartphones ?
But the randomness should be from truly random tables , not pseudo-random generators .

Randomly yours.
