Disscussion or raising hands (in voting) does not have the protection of a secret ballot. Parades are a public display of military might or solidarity. Public displays of power (parades) seek to send a message to the powerless. The symbols used when presented to a minority opinion (raised hands, marching soilders, planes flying overhead) existing feelings of dissatisfaction turn to feelings of isolation. The silent minority is now a vilified minority.



Herein lie keys to formenting civil strife in an organization. Feelings of isolation and dissatisfaction lead to feelings of anger. Anger leads to conflicts and fighting. Distrust leads to seperation and internal breaks in an organization. DiDDi

My moms telling me about this show on art bell my moms telling me about where people are talking about electrical phenomenon. Like when people walk by lightpoles and they go on or windshield wipers in their car go on without explaination. This used to happen a lot when I was younger at different locations. First it seems like a coincidence, but it was a rather predictable coincidence. We used to have this piece of crapola car that had its headlights so misaligned that when you drove down the street the streetlights would go off (because it set off the photoelectric eye). They go on or off depending on the circumstances. There was this one on the way to the korean corner store. I'd get within a certain distance and it would go off, or on. Then i'd walk back, and it would go off or on. Same thing when we'd drive by. Discharge of energy or something.

Yesterday I scoped out a magazine at the newsstand. Popular mechanics I believe. They do a thick issue devoted entirely to "the army of the future". What a freaking joke. You have to see this sillyness. Try not to laugh out loud when you see the picture of a guy holding a $20,000 scope mounted on his rifle over a rock with a eyepiece connected to the scope while he hides behind the rock. Brilliant. This will give birth to a new form of combat. Counter-scoping. Where another sniper shoots off your $20,000 rifle attachment with a .15 cent bullet and then proceeds to die from laughter. Arm pod launchers.... Someone watched too much ROBOTECH.

Silent subliminals



Silent subliminals were used in the gulf war to encourage the iraqi's to surrender. Basically an audio track is encoded with a 14.8 to 15khz carrier wave to produce a high frequency audio track that is undetectable at low frequencys. It is just below the upper range of hearing (16,000hz) but resonates with the tymphanic membrane of the ear at such an intensity that even deaf people can hear the sounds (I dont know how they verifyed the results of that experiement). 140db is the sound of a .223 rifle measured at about 6 feet. The roar of a 747 engine registers at about 160 (sound volume and intensity is often subjective however).



The beauty of this technology is that you can verify the presence of the voices simply by cranking up the volume. Frequencys at a certain range cannot be attenuated by intermediate objects like walls and tree's. This is just to give you a basic idea of the kind of range and intensitys your dealing with. Anyone thats lived near an airport knows how loud those planes are. And you can hear jet airplanes flying overhead 7 miles up.



The problem with most subliminal technology, is that by definition, they are so quiet that they are virtually non-liminal. There is another problem with those cheesy $9.95 tapes you see for sale. In that they are two sided. If you remember having really cheap cassete tapes that would get bleed through the other side. Basically, on the magnetic tape, the low end of side A meets with the low end of side B. Sounds at those levels, like the subliminal tapes with the primitive delivery system, become garbled, if not totally unintelligble.



The subliminal encoding techniques that do work well, are patented, but you need a studio to make them. Well beyond the capability of normal people. The high frequency carrier method tacits an easy an effective method. There are also added benefits to the high frequency carrier. The 14.8 khz carrier wave is simply a fundamental of the schumman resonance (7.83 hz).



This is said to be the "earth tone", but sounds at this level are impossible to produce with stereo equipment. 15hz tones have been verified with medical testing equipment (MRI/cat scan) to resonate with the audio cortex of the brain. 15,000khz, again, is simply a fundamental of the 15hz. 15hz is also the modulation wave of the male human vocal chords (females are 12hz and children are 8hz). It may also be interesting to note that these 8, 12 and 15hz are the low, mid and high range alpha waves of the human brain.



Notice that I said modulation. Carrier wave and modulation are two different things. A carrier wave WITH modulation introduces a monaural beat (modulation: beats per second) of the fundamental carrier frequency. Imagine drawing a pencil line on paper and calling this an x-ray (x-rays used in this example because they are of very high frequency). Only but the most densest materials can stop them. Magnify this line on paper and you may understand the idea of very high frequency carrier wave with very high frequency modulation. The jagged edges are much like the sine waves in sounds. The amount of "bumps" per second would give you a BPS which could be seen as a HZ (amount of bumps or beats per second or minute). This is somewhat like the infinite coastline in non-linear geometry.



This is an easy and effective way to produce psycho-aucoustical effects that one would not normally be able to do with normal loudspeakers. Choose a carrier frequency, then change its volume (frequency modulation) in such a way as to produce a beat that would effect human awareness.



Now, one may ask. How do I produce my own silent subliminals. Easy. I'll walk you through the basic steps. We'll use Cooledit.



In cooledit load a audio track to encode. You may want to record your own voice or use an already made sound. Just load any old sound file. I'm assuming you already know how to download, install and open and browse your hard drive for what you need. If not, I cant help you. Now, double click the sound area to select the entire sound file. Or use edit/select entire wave or control-a (shortcut for select all). Go to generate/tones.



The generate tones window will pop up. Make sure you check "modulate". Since you selected the sound file, and are now generating a tone on top of that sound file, you want to retain it, by only modulating the sound file with the frequency components you choose. Or else it wont work. Base frequency: 14800. 14.8khz is 14.8 plus 1000. Type in 14800 or 15000 for 15khz. I'll skip modulation because its experimental. You could choose to modulate the sound file further by 15hz and then figure out what volume level you'd like to modulate at. I'd suggest no more than 50%. For now leave the other values blank (modulate by/modulate frequency). Ignore frequency components and make sure the settings are locked box is checked. Click okay. Let it do its stuff



Now, go to View/Spectral view. Always double check everything. Verify that you have a sound file in the 14.8 to 15khz band. You should see a band of yellow in the range of the carrier frequency you chose. You'll find this method doesnt always work with all sound files. You may have to upsample a sound file. Mono clips sometimes also dont work. Convert these to stereo. Edit/convert sample type. High bit setting. 44100hz is a good minimum sample rate for these files. And make sure stereo is selected. You may need to use one or more conversion methods to get a sound file to work right.



Also remember, cooledit pro has .wav to .mp3 saving options. The .mp3 saving options (advanced) will greatly effect the end result of your audio track. Key word here is never downgrade your file. Always double-check. Use the spectral viewer on the finished product to verify the high frequency carrier has not been degraded. Real audio and .wmv type conversions dont work.



Note: You can edit and extract sound within movie files using Soundforge and save a modifyed audio track back into the movie with little hassle. But you'd have to produce the HF audio track with a seperate program like cooledit.



This is a great method for producing your own tapes. This is even better if you dont like listening to the sound of your own voice. There is also a health benefit to listening to the 14.8khz sounds. You will be able to verify the presense of the HF carrier in more ways than one. You will actually feel the effects. I think the method does work too. I made a short track of dream suggestions I pulled out of a book on dream analysis. I played it several times one week for several minutes and thought it was interesting to noticed that other people in the house commenting that "they've been having strange dreams lately".



I've also done this with language lessons in .mp3 format. Which is really great because you can listen to them while focusing on other tasks (Its said language and music is what happens when your thinking about other things) and no one knows whats going on. A great way of putting new information into your inner mind to think about and use later on.



I'd like to see someone make a device that goes between your speakers and stereo that automatically upconverts all sound input to the HF carrier band.

"Well".

Deep subject.

No, really it is. "Well". Deep subject.

Obviously this is something profound or people wouldnt say it. "Well..."

Deep subject.

Get it? Its one of those zen things. Its an inappropriate and or irrational response to a perfectly acceptable statement or question.

However, its probably better just to say nothing or "I've never pondered that point of view before. Let me meditate upon it". Yes, go do that. And while your at it. Pull your head out of your posterior.

Well.... Unless your a complete idiot....

"Well"....

Deep subject. Thats what my mother used to tell me.

So now next time someone says "well". You know what to say.

"Deep subject"



The art of hook up self-defense:



Dialogue (greek): Dia, "Two way". Here is a short and effective counter setup for being setup with someone.



1) Someone "offers" to set you up with some guy or girl.

2) You say "Whats wrong with her/him?"

3) [defensivly] "Oh, there's nothing wrong with her/him"

4) You: "Then why doesnt he/she have a girlfriend/boyfriend"

5) [really defensive] "Oh, well... just because he/she doesnt have a boyfriend/girlfriend, doesnt mean there is anything wrong with her/him"

6) Your: "EXACTLY!"



This doesnt always work because discourses on 4 could vary. "Oh she/he just going through a divorce" or "Just broke up". A great counter to these would be to say something about how: "Your not into people on the rebound" or better yet, to put the person into a defensive mode where they will tell you what they are thinking about so you can negate the argument by showing how ubsurd the original premise is based on feeding back of the information gleaned from their own refutation. Hence, dialogue. Dialogue doesnt always occur between two people, but inside someone often when a contradiction is brought to awareness.



After all, flaws people often see in others are sometimes just reflections of their own issues. Perhaps some think that hooking others up proves they know a lot about relationships. See below "love doctor" reference....




A contradiction is a two part conflict (is/is not). The opposite of internal dialogue is internal MONOlogue. "These two would make a great couple, all my friends agree, let me see if I can hook them up" An internal monologue is a straight line type of thought process often devoid of any rational or critical functions. Its a low grade though process. Like that of a child: "How do I get that toy I want. I've asked 100 times and get the same answer. Eventually they'll break and i'll get my way".




Something to the effect of: "So your trying to hook me up with a loser to make them feel better?" you may also like to add "Does X know about this? Or are you carrying this on behind his/her back?" Its good to find out if this is a pretext or the case of one person not having the guts to ask you out directly. .




A woman might want to interject: "I hate spineless men" or a man "I like a woman that knows what she wants, and knows how to get it" This is called "retrograde and inversion" of the agressive male/passive female roles. A man wants a woman that knows what she wants and knows how she can get it and the woman wants a guy thats not spineless. After all, if this is indeed the case, this is a very female or rather effeminate attitude. .




If you really want to take things up a notch try something like this:.




"....And what makes you think I need *YOUR* help 'love doctor'?" The "love doctor" remark is really extreme. But it may be appropriate in some cases. Especially ones where you dont know or like the person (or respect them). You can even turn this "love doctor" thing into a running joke or title. .




To be less cruel you can put a twist on it and make it into something comical or trivial: A guy might say something like: "So... Can you hook me up with any models or strippers?" Or a woman: "...How about a doctor or lawyer. Or a guy that drives a rolls".




Some people dont know what to do when approached by someone of the same sex. The best thing to say in that situation is: "You got a brother/sister?" Hey, you never know. And if they really like you, they might hook you up with their siblings with the idea that they will be seeing more of you in the future. Remember, every ugly or smart girl has hot girlfriends. Even a nerdy guys bound to be bullied by big jocks or frat boys. Every family has that one weirdo. Sometimes the black sheep is someone of alternative lifestyle. Think of it as a lead. .



Worse case scenario they just think your a psycho bitch or arrogant prick. And would probably eliminate any further possibilitys of this issue ever coming up as a topic of discussion from the person you used it on.

You know those toilets where you have to pay to get in and its impossible to sneak over or crawl over the top? My mom told me this poem, written on the inside of one of those:

"Here I sit, broken hearted, paid to shit, but only farted"

I was chatting earlyer about the ineffectiveness of leather chairs as bona fide fart catchers. I remember back a time in childhood where I once discovered Retrograde flatulence. I remember the sensation and feeling of farts backing up in my intestinal tract. New fart bubbles combining into one. Old ones becoming new. Then the eventual big bang. Its basically useless though so I suggest sticking to the old method. The real trick is stifling the sound so no one notices. I remember taking opportunitys to let loose while the class was laughing at something. Sometimes you'd sit there for a very long time thinking "come on, someone do something funny".

I'm reading usenet and seeing ads for this "pheromone spray". This was an old mailing list generator seen in things like trashy detectives novels, which apparently cater a readership of prospective serial killers and general psychos. Now its all over the internet. I see ads in every goddamn newsgroup. Be forewarned, once you buy something like this, your then put on a "hey everybody, look what this loser ordered" mailing list. Then you start getting direct mail for things like "nose hair clippers". Be forewarned. I read somewhere the stuff smells like ETHER. Get it, Ether? Knocks them right off their feet.... They may have changed the formula in all these years but you never know.. Thats way beyond grey area.....

A few weeks ago we go to a local herb shop (closed) and proceed to the next one. My mother avoided the first one, which was closer to where we lived because of the "grumpy, grumbling old man" behind the counter. The guys vietnamese and sells chinese herbs and other items. Cant speak too highly of the shops aroma. I mean it smells like they used moxa for incense. Anyways, classic scene. Old guy and young guy playing Wei chi (go). Old guys winning. I heard from other people about this guy. They call him "the grouch". In fact, people avoid this place and go to the one run by chinese. But this place is open later (smart guy gets the late night runoff). Intimidating scene if you dont know what your doing. I was really impressed by the selection. My mother quickly gets to the point: "Do you take credit cards" Old man takes a few seconds to answer, says "no". She then says: "Well then can you break a hundred, all I have are hundreds?" Suddenly, its like a flip is switched. Guys attitude suddenly starts to change (later on he even stifles a grin). My mothers there to buy some things she wants. Mainly an herb which is a very a mild laxitave. She asks the guy "have any of this" and shows him the herb name. He's like, "er, uh, well, yeah, my own supply". He says he has a one pound bag. Its obvious he's apprehensive about selling this herb which is basiclly hemp seed. In fact, I always thought the preground that stuff before import. But this stuffs whole seeds. Its hemp not pot. Its legal but still, you never know the kind of looky-loo's coming into a place like that wanting a gram of this or ounce of that. She asks: "when will you get more?" He's like: "uhh... well..." His mannerisms are hard to render in text... He's finally like: "I can sell you an ounce or so". My moms like "fine". He starts measuring it out. So in the meanwhile I start picking out 1 pound bags of stuff I want plus some prepared tea's. I was really looking to score a bit of reishi (lingzhi) and this stuffs always a ripoff at western stores. This guys got 1 pound bags (thats a lot of big mushrooms) of dried red lingzhi in this huge box. For like $5-8 bucks or something. Unbelievable. We were totally stunned at the prices (they never put the prices on things so you have to ask). Its funny too because he starts to measure out the hemp seed and is about to wrap it up, then he starts to scoop a bit more out. Long story short, money talks. These old guys like to feel people out in their own way. Still reeling from the deals we got, we go next door to the korean place. I throw some cicada snacks in my moms basket right at the start and at the end we are buying the stuff. The koreans totally start tripping out on the cicada's. They are saying to my mother (i'm standing way off kinda stoic like) and "do you know what these things are?". They start saying the name in korean. She's like "Thats something my son picked out". They're still tripping over the bug snacks. Then this korean lady comes in, the couple behind the counter exchange hi's with the lady in korean. The guy says something to the korean girl about the bugs. She starts talking about the bug snacks. She asks if I ever had them before and I said no. Then she starts getting anecdotal and says something about: "We eat these when the men go drinking"(?). Then, at the end they give us a 10% discount. FYI, these bugs taste kind of like cigarette butts soaked in miso soup. Not bad though.





I'm talking to this guy on the china chat network. It kind of gets into an exchange of idioms. Then he tells me he was a tour guide. I told him "I dont like tourists". He says: "tourists are tourists". I say: "Tourists are a nessessary evil". He says: "Only if they enjoy their trip". "That is an idiom here in china".

I'm listening to this Boulez song and i'm thinking: "Yeah, I can see how fragments at 7 pitch levels negates argument and discussion".

Yesterday I watched disk 1 of this korean movie called _ My boss is my hero _. In one part the boss asks his lackey if he knew what the internet was. His lackey says: "what do you think i'm an idiot?". Boss then asks: "Do you email"? Lackey then stands up and starts grabbing his crotch saying "I mail this all the time". He then starts doing thrusting motions and says: "I email this 12 times a day, moron". Later on in school they open up a clinic to give the boys circumcisions. One part the boys getting his snausage clipped and (POV of the doctor and nurse) the doctors pulling out "beads and sesame seeds" while the guys moaning. Afterwards the nurse points out that he forgot to use anestesia. Before this part there is a scene in the girls bathroom where this tall guy dressed like a girl is straightening his hair with a cellphone. He has it clipped over his hair like a straightening iron. The guys tall and looks japanese and its funny because has this short hairdo you often see young japanese girls have. Its kind of sloppy and swoops out a bit in back and on the sides. Now i have to look for disk 2 of this movie.

i once had a dream where was zipped up in the carcass of a large shark (sex unknown). I was then lowered into this pool of water. The underbelly of the shark was vivisectioned and had a small hole under the breast area where my head was. The slit was sealed by a few stitches of strong material. Then all my shark buddies (tiger sharks) came to visit me. For dinner we had fish eggs to drink (think of boba tea). When I was lowered into the pool it was like at an outside zoo, with fake looking rock formations.

ok, cool, now what?
