While the Station Fire raged out of control in Angeles National Forest for four days, a pair of 12,000-gallon-capacity retardant-dropping airplanes sat idle at an airport in Victorville.
The DC-10 planes were available, but commanders overseeing the fire did not request them until Sunday after the fire had grown to 50,000 acres, said Bill Payne, aviation chief for Cal Fire.
"They called us up Sunday and told us they needed something bigger," he said.
The DC-10 planes were too unwieldy to get down into narrow canyons, said John Keesee, Incident Management Team 5 air operations branch commander.
"The first couple days of the fire, the targets were not ideal for the DC," Keesee said. "Ideally for the DCs you need a long ridge that's fairly straight."
In the big planes, pilots "can't get down into small ridge lines," he said.
Fires change so fast it's hard to anticipate what the best attack might be, he said.
"Yeah, everyone would have done a lot of things different," Keesee said.
One of the DC-10s is on an "exclusive use" lease during the peak of the fire season, meaning the state can use it whenever it wants, and the county can request it from the state at any point.
The other DC-10 has a slightly more restrictive lease, but it is always available provided it is not being used by some other jurisdiction, Payne said. It was available during the first few days of the fire, he said.
Until Sunday, county fire officials used 1,200-gallon capacity airplanes to drop fire retardant in the fire's path. Two 1,600-gallon Bombardier SuperScooper airplanes, which drop water instead of retardant, were also brought in from Canada on Sunday.
The county's fire chief agreed that the smaller aircraft were probably more appropriate when the fire first started.
"Sometimes when the fire is large but not huge, there are a lot of small aircraft that are working the fire that are more suitable," said Chief P. Michael Freeman, who acknowledged the fire ended up being "huge."
Freeman said he would have heard grumbling from firefighters if they thought the big planes should have brought in earlier.
"I haven't heard any complaint regarding them," he said. "Believe me, being good firefighters, we're good at complaining."
In addition, visibility over the fire was often poor, and large planes need to travel about 290 miles per hour to stay aloft, he said.
Freeman expects people will second-guess every move made by the Incident Management Team, of which the county was a part.
"There's all kind of opinions," he said. "We all understand that. Some of my bosses ask those kinds of questions. The tools have different purposes and there are different times and places to use them."

st: RE: cluster analysis with foreach
Wed, 9 Jun 2010 17:47:19 +0100
I have comments on three levels.
First, your example implies that you have two variables, -state- and
-power_city-. I don't know what real scientific purpose clustering would
serve here. Clustering on virtually any criterion will just tend to
group together lots of smaller values of consumption, necessarily more
similar than others, as larger cities will typically be more spread out
in what for most if not all states will be very skewed distributions.
Second, you set yourself up for the task of collating 50 or so cluster
analyses. ("or so" depending on DC, Puerto Rico, etc.)
Third, should you persist, your syntax might be something like
egen group = group(state), label
su group, meanonly
forval i = 1/`r(max)' {
cluster ... if group == `i'
Maximiliano Manuel Silva Correa
Im stuck trying to run a cluster analysis routine throuth diferent
sections of my data. Suppose we have power consumtion data about
different cities of the US. What I'd like to do is to run a cluster
analysis routine (cluster kmeans for example) by state, because i
would like to see in every state which cities have similar power
It would be something like
foreach s in states{
cluster(kmeans, power_city)
(states is a string variable)
Could someone show me the sintax here, or send similar examples?

I love the concept, but have no idea how it actually works. It retails for $199, which puts it a bit above the impulse buy category, but it sure does tempt me. More if I ever break down and buy it.Added 10 Years Ago from Hammacher Schlemmer

Project DescriptionLocated on the Navajo Nation in a remote and visually compelling area in northeastern Arizona, this facility is designed to replace the existing Health Center. A small hospital programmatically, the center offers an array of services including a 13-bed inpatient nursing unit, ambulatory surgery, and ancillary services including, laboratory, pharmacy, radiology, and emergency department. Outpatient services include primary care, pediatrics, mental health, dental, eye, physical therapy, and community health and wellness.
The health center design is a response to its site, the space and functional program, and the unique Navajo concepts of place, health, and wellness. With strong beliefs in the sacredness of place, the site and facility are zoned to respect the special character of each cardinal direction. For instance, the main entrance facing east is flanked by wings housing the community health and wellness programs and administrative functions. These wings metaphorically represent welcoming arms to patients and visitors. Other program components are arrayed westward from the entrance beginning with the clinic wing and inpatient wings and terminating at the far west with the service functions. A traditional healing or meditation space is aligned with the cardinal directions to provide a protected space for patients and families to incorporate traditional holistic medicine in their treatment and care.
Key design goals include flexibility for growth and change, spatial efficiency, appropriate functional separation or adjacency, and patient convenience. Evidenced Based Principles include a healthful, positive working environment with day light and views, air quality, acoustical performance, patient privacy, safety, and security, and ease of way finding. The outpatient clinics are organized in a pod concept. The image provides a strong sense of place, visually integrated with the powerful landscape that engenders a sense of well being.

text: MIRANSHAH - At least five militants died during a shootout between rival factions in a restive tribal region near the Afghan border Tuesday, militant and intelligence sources said. Supporters of Tehreek-e-Taliban commander Khan Said Sajna and followers of the late TTP leader Hakimullah Mehsud clashed in the Shawal area of the troubled North Waziristan district, a security official told AFP. "Two militants from Sajna and three from Hakimullah Mehsud group have been killed in the exchange of fire between the two factions. Three other people have been injured," an intelligence official told AFP. Sources in the rival militant groups also confirmed the attack."The fight was temporarily halted after local elders asked the two groups for a ceasefire to take out the dead bodies and rescue the injured," a militant source said.Infighting between different Taliban factions has killed dozens of people in the area in recent weeks. The latest attack comes weeks after the Pakistani Taliban formally ended a ceasefire called to promote talks with the government. These negotiations were aimed at ending the militants' bloody seven-year insurgency.This news was published in The Nation newspaper. Read complete newspaper of 14-May-2014 here.

"We must now have a good result against the Swiss," said Santini, whose side need a draw on Monday to progress.
"We have seen that in football things can quickly change. Against England, we scored two quick goals. This time it was the Croats who did it to us.
"We cannot repeat these moments of weakness if we want to go far."
France assumed control after Zinedine Zidane put them ahead with a deflected free-kick.
But a Milan Rapaic penalty and a Dado Prso strike gave the defending champions some anxious moments before David Trezeguet equalised in the 63rd minute.
"We allowed the Croatians to get back into contention, to play to their strengths and make strong runs with the ball.
"Perhaps we relaxed and thought we had done the most difficult part in the first match.
"Perhaps the squad need to wake up a bit. At least we have the advantage of having our destiny in our own hands.
"We dropped two points which means we didn't manage to sew up qualification for the next phase.
"But as far as getting a point it is evidence that the French team resolved not to be humiliated following the opening 20 minutes of the second half.
Trezeguet admitted the ball had touched his hand prior to his goal.
But he said: "It wasn't deliberate, though I guess the Croatians will be a little disappointed."
Santini acknowledged that Trezeguet's strike partner Thierry Henry is not performing as well for his country as he did for Arsenal last season.
Henry showed plenty of creativity against Croatia, and had several chances, but did not score.
"If you compare him now with the goals or assists he does for Arsenal, I agree that he is not playing as well as he does for them," said Santini.
"But I can only say that Titi was very much to the fore in the first 20 minutes."

Daddy Issues: Can Women Who Have Great Dads Date Older Men?
I love my dad. Dorky though it may be, he's one of my favorite people and I can't imagine my life would be as good with any other one. I do, however, have one complaint: really liking my dad has totally screwed me in the dating department.
Aside from the standard complaint that most of the morons I've gone out with just aren't as likable as my dad, I'm also borderline incapable of dating much older men. I can't help but make skeevy involuntary associations. We all know that having a useless or absent father will often result in a mean set of daddy issues. But I'm also convinced that most women who've had great relationships with their dads have a difficult time dating much older men, even when said men are bizarrely compatible in spite of the age difference.
While some–like my mom–might say that this isn't such a bad thing, I'm thoroughly convinced that every girl needs to have an Old Man stage. But every time I try to get mine started, I fail miserably, slinking away from those thirty to forty-year-olds right quick. Even when the guy is in his early thirties and thus not really old enough to be my dad unless he was particularly mature and super trashy, I can't stop making the requisite comparisons between the guy and my actual dad.
And you know what? My dad's got better hair.

For the third straight year, Rehoboth Beach and Dewey Beach have won five-star beach ratings from the Natural Resources Defense Council.
"It's very good news," Rehoboth Mayor Sam Cooper said.
Read Cape Gazette's Visitors' Guide to
The ratings are part of the council's annual "Testing the Waters: A Guide to Water Quality at Vacation Beaches" report, which collects and analyzes beach water testing results from the Environmental Protection Agency. The report examines the cause of water pollution on America's beaches.
Dewey Beach Mayor Diane Hanson said, "I think its fantastic. We're just thrilled about it. We've been trying to make Dewey Beach more family-friendly, and having clean beaches and safe waters are an important thing for families."
In its report, the council calls for vigilant water testing to help reverse pollution; Rehoboth Beach and Dewey Beach are both monitored twice a week by Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control, with sample results posted on the department's site. Cooper said frequent testing was a key to Rehoboth's ranking.
"The biggest part of it is the testing in Delaware is rigorous," Cooper said.
Delaware was ranked first out of 30 states for its overall water quality.
"Clean water quality and nourished ocean beaches are vital to tourism, job growth and Delaware's economy," Gov, Jack Markell said. "Delaware's ranking as first in the country for swimming water quality and our beautifully-nourished community beaches continue to make our coastal resorts national destinations of choice."
Rehoboth and Dewey received five stars on the following criteria:
- Less than 5 percent of water samples exceeded national standards in 2010, 2011, and 2012
- Local officials post advisories without re-sampling
- Closings/advisories posted online and at beach
- Water quality is monitored more than once a week
Michael Bott, environmental scientist with DNREC, said the water-quality testing standards, adopted in 2000, check mainly for bacteria, factoring in not just the water but also the environmental and weather conditions on site. He said the state's high standard of water quality is something that took years to achieve.
Of the five-star rating, Bott said, "It's always a great thing for the state."
Other five-star beaches include Gulf Shores Public Beach and Gulf State Park Pavilion in Alabama; Bolsa Chica Beach, Newport Beach and San Clemente State Beach in California; Bay City State Recreation Area in Michigan; Park Point Franklin Park and Lafayette Community Club Beach in Minnesota; and Hampton Beach State Park and Wallis Sands Beach in New Hampshire.
"We're delighted that Delaware's State Park beaches continue to be recognized as among the nation's best and cleanest," DNREC Director of Division of Parks & Recreation Charles Salkin said. "We strive to offer Delawareans and visitors the best summer experience possible – beautiful landscapes and great facilities and programs, all at very family-affordable prices. Ultimately, this all depends on the quality of our ocean waters."

DETROIT, MI – 1/25/14 Kenneth and Jacquelyn Johnson parents of, Kendrick Johnson, whose mysterious death a year ago poses many questions, want to know how their son ended up in a rolled-up mat in his high school's gymnasium on January 10, 2013; his body was found a day later, when students in a gym class glimpsed his feet in the mat.
The original investigation by the Lowndes County Sheriff's Office concluded that 17-year-old Kendrick Johnson died by accident while reaching for a shoe. However, Parents and activist are looking for justice for the unanswerable death that looks more like a homicide than an accident.
Rev. Charles E. Williams II said "One year later and no answers, is unacceptable. We are coming together to support the family with finances, but we are preparing for action and mobilization."

There has been an avalanche of recent revelations about the NSA spying on virtually all online activity. One possible method to prevent monitoring and obscure your presence online is to use Tor--The Onion Router. A new report, however, shows that Tor is not invulnerable, and that it doesn't take an agency with the resources of the NSA to break it and figure out who and where you are.
In an article written for The Guardian entitled 'NSA surveillance: A guide to staying secure' respected information security expert Bruce Schneier offers a number of tips to stay safe online. The first one is:
Hide in the network. Implement hidden services. Use Tor to anonymize yourself. Yes, the NSA targets Tor users, but it's work for them. The less obvious you are, the safer you are.
That premise is a truism of security in general--a layered approach is better than a single security solution even though none of the individual layers offers absolute protection in and of itself. So, Tor may not offer complete online anonymity, but the use of Tor still makes it significantly less likely that the NSA or rogue attacker will be able to monitor or track you online.
By all means, use Tor--but make sure you also understand its weaknesses and limitations. A report entitled 'Users Get Routed: Traffic Correlation on Tor by Realistic Adversaries' details research that shows how Tor is susceptible to compromise from even moderately skilled and equipped attackers.
The abstract for the paper states:
We present the first analysis of the popular Tor anonymity network that indicates the security of typical users against reasonably realistic adversaries in the Tor network or in the underlying Internet. Our results show that Tor users are far more susceptible to compromise than indicated by prior work. Specific contributions of the paper include (1) a model of various typical kinds of users, (2) an adversary model that includes Tor network relays, autonomous systems (ASes), Internet exchange points (IXPs), and groups of IXPs drawn from empirical study, (3) metrics that indicate how secure users are over a period of time, (4) the most accurate topological model to date of ASes and IXPs as they relate to Tor usage and network configuration, (5) a novel realistic Tor path simulator (TorPS), and (6) analyses of security making use of all the above. To show that our approach is useful to explore alternatives and not just Tor as currently deployed, we also analyze a published alternative path selection algorithm, Congestion-Aware Tor. We create an empirical model of Tor congestion, identify novel attack vectors, and show that it too is more vulnerable than previously indicated.
Whether you use Tor, or you're considering using Tor, you should take a look at this paper. Whether you choose to read the paper or not, just make sure you're aware that Tor does not provide absolute anonymity--it's just an extra layer of obfuscation.

Last fall, the behavior of my 4- and 5- year old boys hit rock bottom. When they were apart, they were easy to handle. But within minutes of them getting together sparks would fly, punches would be thrown and someone would get hurt.
And when they weren't fighting, their vocabulary consisted of six words: toilet-(insert face, head or some other body part), potty, underwear, poop, pee or toot – followed by obnoxious laughter.
There's no doubt that some of this defiance was the result of a stressful summer which included losing their great-grandmother and leaving the only life they've ever known to move to another state.
But I can't blame it all on circumstance. We've made mistakes. Lots of them. The biggest one being a laziness when it comes to teaching them simple behaviors. It's almost like we assumed they would come out of the womb knowing how to behave and when they didn't, we were shocked, disappointed and turned to yelling instead of teaching.
This is what drove me to check out Bossy Baby Chronicles, a line of personalized books and incentive charts that help parents with potty training or general behavior. The books teach the children examples of good and bad behavior, then when the child exhibits one of those behaviors in real life, he/she gets a sticker. After filling up the chart with stickers, the child gets a prize.
Here's an example …
We tested out the behavioral set, which focused on three areas: Eating Nicely, Listening Nicely, Playing Nicely.
Once my kids heard they'd get a toy at the end, they were sold on the concept but it still took a day or two of me
threatening incentivizing before their behavior started to improve. Slowly, the fighting lessened and they started to listen a bit more.
We implemented a "first time" rule, which meant in order to get a sticker they needed to listen and do what they were told on the first ask. If I had to repeat myself, no sticker. This rule still works today, even without the stickers. I just have to say "first time" and they straighten up and pull it together.
Sadly, the biggest stumbling block in the whole exercise was me. I kept forgetting about it when things would get busy, and then I would remember when they started to fight again.
But after a few weeks, the charts were full and the boys were treated to a sold-out award ceremony in our kitchen attended by several adoring fans. (ok, it was just me and my best friend who was visiting but they were still thrilled!)
So for all of you looking for a way to teach your children how to behave, my advice to all of you is don't wait until things get so bad you want to pull your hair out. Treat your kids – and yourself – to these cute and helpful books before things get out of hand.
Bossy Baby Chronicles books ($24.95) and award charts ($9) are available at BossyBabyChronicles.com. BabyCenter fans will receive 10% off by using the code Babycenter10 at checkout. (Expires 1/18/2013)

London Getting Agatha Christie Statue
According to The Guardian, the theatre district in London is in for a treat – approval has just come through from Westminster Council to erect a memorial statue for the queen of crime writing, Agatha Christie.
The statue will not be the likeness of Ms. Christie, but rather will take the shape of a giant book, measuring approximately 2.5 metres, and sculpted from bronze by artist Ben Twiston-Davies. It will find its home in the middle of Covent Garden, where it is sure to enjoy a lot of traffic.
Christie was incredibly prolific and is among the world's bestselling authors. The sculpture is intended to be unveiled in late November 2012.

In crime fiction writing, when things got dull, Mickey Spillane suggested having a man with a gun burst through the door. He did that often in his Mike Hammer novels. For technology articles, the equivalent of a "man with a gun" appearing is a new argument about PCs versus Macs. The current one started with Microsoft, playing the "man with a gun," and their sloppy new Apple Tax survey (Microsoft's 'Apple Tax' Claims Are 'Stupid' Counters Analyst).
The Apple Tax argument carries the argument on after Microsoft's new TV ad campaign showing cute young technology shoppers trying to find their perfect laptop. Amazingly, Apple somehow comes up short. Marketing blather notwithstanding, Microsoft got sloppy again trying to pass off these commercials as being "real people" doing real laptop searching. It wasn't long before new nerd hottie Lauren was outed as a fairly successful actress named Lauren De Long.
Let's leave the long running Microsoft and Apple feud to the fanboys and look at how this nonsense can help you buy your next laptop. Follow the TPT rule of Task-Process-Tools to identify the task you need done, define the process to perform that task, then choose the technology to implement the process.
What task will this laptop perform? What software will it need to use to perform that task? Which type of laptop runs the software applications needed to perform the task at hand? That's the starting point for your laptop shopping list.
If you're a Windows shop, you'll almost certainly stick with Windows. If you're a Mac shop, you'll definitely stick with Mac. If you're truly open to solving the task at hand following a defined process to choose your tool, you may wind up with a netbook, a smartphone, a Linux laptop, or a paper notebook and pen. Follow the TPT road and you'll end up in a happy place.

Two brothers in Pakistan who practice cannibalism were arrested for disturbing the order on Monday.
38-year-old Mohammed Farman and 35-year-old Mohammed Arif were arrested[3] after nearby residents called the police due to a strong odor coming from their home. When police arrived, they found the severed head of an infant.
The brothers admitted to practicing cannibalism, an activity that is not prohibited by law in Pakistan. They had previously been arrested for two years between 2011 and 2013 for desecrating graves in order to fuel their cannibalism.
It is estimated that the brothers dug up over 100 graves before 2011.

I am in their house, his house, but the doors are twice my height. I leave our sisters and go upstairs, looking for him. He is using the computer in the kitchen and I sit next to him, on the same chair but barely touching. He shows me how to fight with animated soldiers.
He races up the hill in my backyard and I chase him, trying to release the competitive spirit that he has been coaxing from me all night. He trips over a tree root and slows, I slam into him, we tumble down. He catches himself on his elbows before landing above me, but his leg still comes down on mine and I groan. I look down, trying to disentangle, and I see his pale, pale arms, glowing in the barely-there moonlight.
The moon is above us, and we are silhouetted in its light. I dance down the middle of the street, ignoring the glass shards in my hand, forgetting that I'm leaving tomorrow. I dangle the spicy mint he wants so badly in front of his face before snatching it away as he lunges and I twirl down the street, singing "mine, mine, mine." He gives up, returning to the sidewalk, but I continue to twirl and joy under the dull moon. Then he is beside me, grabbing me, pulling me over and a car runs by so fast I can barely see it, so close I can almost touch it. He saves me. I still do not give him the mint.
We are back, before it all, in Iona, where the beach is close and the tide closer. My sister hit him earlier, and he didn't hit her back, because he never hurt anyone, not back then. He has taught me to fight the way I could, has taught me not to flinch from pain by hurling ping-pong ball after ping-pong ball right at me, but would never hit a girl, would never hurt a soul, would always save my life. I trust his goodness. Our families are on the couches, spread out and close together, and we play a card game that is more laughing than thinking. I am wet for the first time. I notice, but I don't know what it means. When I go to the bathroom later, there is a bloody spot on the inside of his basketball shorts, the ones I wear because my luggage is lost. My mother gives me Motrin and a bulky pad and cleans the shorts and tells me that I am a woman now, and I wear her sweatpants to bed and think but I am still twelve, and I am confused by all this growing up when all I really want is to play another round of cards.
It is snowing, and he is at my house, and we chase and run with a flock of children, throwing snowballs, and I see him break a window but he doesn't know I saw. When the window is found later, no one ever knows that it was him.
He wrestles his sister who is less than half his size after she calls him weak and emasculated and worthless. He is pushing her, tugging her, pinning her down with the arms that hold him over above within me. She claws at him, writhes, but cannot escape, and he tries to smother her with a pillow. I scream.
I can never be with him, says my mother, because he is angry and only knows how to hit. That's what comes of having a father like his.
I am sprawled across a couch in my basement, the gangling limbs that I've finally come to control and love and cherish stretching all the way from armrest to armrest. He is seated on the other couch, joystick in his hands, voice calm, steering an animated car around and around an animated track, destroying competitor after competitor as he tells me that he and his girlfriend broke up because he got angry and didn't know what to do, that it just comes out, that now he's not allowed to drive because his mother saw him hitting his sister. "I don't know why it happens," he tells me, looking only at the television. "I can't control it, can't see it coming, I just get angry, sometimes."
He breaks things.
We stand in the lights of the subway car, close together although it is late and the car is empty, falling into each other with each bump and curve and turn and stop. His eyes go transparent, the pale green-blue washed out by the bright bright lights, and I can see through him and into him and he is mine and I love him and I want him but I see he is not safe.
I bike down roads less than a mile from home but they are foreign now. I go faster and faster, fighting to get away, fighting the urge to go to his house and throw rocks at his window and cry that I want him and need him and beg him to hold me. I cannot go there, cannot do that, cannot let him know because even if he loves me, even if he wants me, I should not have him. I pedal, and I cry, and I pray, seriously for the first time in my life, that this hurt can go away, that this love can run its course and leave me because I am too feeble to fight him and to weak to let go. I must not love a boy who is dangerous.

Have Cat Questions? Ask a Cat Vet Online.
Hello, Christina
Neutered males are capable of spraying. Even females can do it too. If you have 2 cats and one is not neutered, it very well could be him too. Until you catch the offender in the act, who knows?
If one is doing it, that can spur the other one to start doing as well. So you could have both of them doing it.
There are several things you can do to deter this behavior. Try some of these tips to stop the behavior.
Get the younger neutered ASAP.
You should add a second or third litter box. Many times cats do not like to urinate in the same box they defecate in. Nor do cats like to share litter boxes either sometimes. It always a good rule of thumb to follow this formula (n+1= number of litter boxes) N= number of cats in house.
You can use a litter called cat attract. Attract Litter is designed to make it easier to get cats of all ages trained or re-trained to use the litter box. You can get this a pet smart, petco, and larger pet supply stores.
Very important to clean the areas that has been marked. You need to use a enzyme odor eliminating cleaner such as nature's miracle. Regular cleaner such as Lysol will not work as good. He keeps going to the same spots because he smells his scent there. You must get rid of the scent.
You can also use a product called feliway. This is a pheromone spray that helps cats with aggression, territorial issues, and anxiety. You can spray it on surfaces he has previously urinated on. Pet smart also sells it in a form called comfort zone. This is an electric plug in that puts it in the air.
Sincerely, Micki

- Preamble
- The contribution of the Philosophy
- The
Sublimation - Sexuality with homeopathic doses
- Textes
- To
further study the works of Aïvanhov
Because it offers a comprehension of love and sexuality
according to an Initial Philosophy: for discovering the divine gift
of what Plato talked
about in the Symposium:
"Here is, so I declare it, the energy of love (eros) is, the most ancient
and worthiest, among gods. It has the greatest titles for driving the
man on the virtue and happiness way, both in life and in kingdom of
afterlife". So, we set out some reflections drawn by the disciplines
of the Initial Philosophy (kabbala, alchemy, symbolism, tarots, astrology,
yoga tantra) with the hope to furnish, to our visitors, internal stimulus
to analyze and to face up better the demonstration of love and sexuality
in the daily life.
What does initial philosophy bring about original, compared with the generic philosophical religious approach, and compared with that psychoanalytical and psychological?
Concretely, how can love (platonic winged eros) conduct us on this way, predicted by many evolved creatures? How to direct this extraordinary energy towards the predestinate aim and not stopped at halfway? So, what is the predestinate half? Does this aim involve sadness, inexpressible privations and the cessation of the pleasure? Or, is it an approaching to a new pleasure, more intense and thinner, to new joys? Moreover, this sense would have a spiritual run if this had to conduct to sadness and privation?
Probably, it only need substitute a rough, temporary and carrier, in the time of poisons and bitterness, pleasure with another kind of pleasure which develops light, knowledge, joy and generosity. The fear to abdicate the most immediate pleasure, stops sometimes the enter and the experimentation of ancient truths.
Is this love, that man knows in the affective sphere, different from love that move the sun and the other stars" of which Dante, the Supreme Poet ("L'amor che move il sole e l'altre stelle" in Paradise XXXIII, 145) talked about?
That this energy can help us to fly and ,so, to feed
our spiritual centers (chakra), symbolically, it is well-known since
the antiquity. In fact, The
winged dragon, fantastic animal knew to all the mythologies and
at present also in the Christian iconography, is the symbol of the existing
instinctive strengths in the man and of their possible transformation.
Subduing and steering these strength to use them as mean of propulsion
towards the most elevated peaks of the spirit, represents the deep sense
of the spiritual run that everyone is, or it will be, called to complete
The predestination of the man is to develop, here on the earth, his divine quality and the sexual energy. The energy of love is the resource, inseparable from the practice of the virtues, predestinate to feed the development of the spiritual organs of the man (chakra).
It is necessary to add that it doesn't mean to dominate the sexual energy for not committing a sin, but it means to sublime it... it doesn't need to repress it, but to sensitize it, and to direct it upward; this is its predestination and it brings suffering or mere renouncement in the man. But to enrich him, to give him more elevated and more intense joys, that's why, if energy goes upward, it feeds the spiritual, extraordinary centers (chakras) that everyone has got effectively, if also to the latent state, made exception for the evolved creatures, the geniuses and above all the Saints whose spiritual gifts are apparent and visible to everybody.
Certainly it is not an easy job, whose result can be programmed to
temporal level. It doesn't deal with applying mental techniques in theory,
tout court, but to develop, day by day, with humility, simplicity and
tolerance also towards themselves, a state of conscience, a whole of
so many small daily behaviors more and more elevated, so a day it can
be tasted, also on the earth, that fullness, that joy to which our soul
strongly and naturally long for.
"The sexual strength or the winged dragon", not by chance it is just the title of Omraam Mikhaël Aïvanhov's famous work with which the author has deepened the comprehension of love and sexuality. He has furnished concrete indications to live in an harmonious way this divine energy ,that feeds our existence. "All the human beings, whoever they are, without knowing they look for God. Do they believe to look for only the happiness? and who doesn't look for it? God is anywhere in the universe and he is hidden in all of this that arouses our desire. The ambitious ones, the drunkards, the gluttons, the avid ones, the dissolute persons, by their way, everybody look for God, because effectively it is also possible to find one lower case letter of Yours particle in the alcohol, in the food, in the sexuality, in the money, in the glory, in the power... God can be found anywhere, also in the swamps, also in the stones where Your presence is as a hidden spark. Certainly from these things you can be drawn only a momentary satisfaction, because God not him he can really find in the coarsest layers, in the inferior forms of the subject, but only in the spirit." (Daily thoughts)
This spiritual job, this activity, willy-nilly, constitutes a forced way of our run in this long cycle of the reincarnations. And' an activity that doesn't ask for isolation, monastic life or bachelorhood. It is compatible with the life of couple and with the life from single.
Certainly in this field there is a risk to stir from an excess to the other and whoever scrutinizes with sincerity his own behaviors he can recognize it.
The initiatic philosophy finds a different point of balance from the traditional yoga tantra.
Mirabail M. talks about that in his volume "Dictionnaire de l'ésotérisme - Collection Marabout université": "O.M. Aivanhov talks, instead, about another way: a sort of loving homeopathy" susceptible to wake up again in the creatures, also in the life of couple, the spiritual gifts that are present in each of us.
The contribution of the Philosophy
The great illness of the twentieth century, that has to be seen with
all our problems and it strikes us both as single individuals both in
so much society, is the «loss of soul». When the soul is neglected,
it doesn't limit him to abandon us; it reappears in symptomatic way
in the obsessions, in the dependences of every kind, in the forms of
violence and in the loss of meaning. We have tried to isolate these
symptoms or to eradicate them one by one; but the background problem
is that we have lost ours to relatively know to the soul and we don't
even interest there more to it". (Thomas
The man's soul reborn in the Renaissance official culture for worth of Ficino, it returns today in the contemporary psychology of Hilmann.
Marsilio Ficino (1433-1499) author, besides, of the De religione Christiana et fidei pietate and Commentary on Plato's Symposium on Love, conceives the universe as universal hierarchy organized in five Corporate body: God, angels, rational soul, quality and body.
At the top there is God, in an intermediary position there is man, or, better the human soul ("copy of the world").
The soul is the base of every creature, it is the soul of every individual it mirrors the world that surrounds her.
The Renaissance theory of the homo copulation mundi replaces the man to the center of the world after centuries of pessimism and anticipates the modern psychology cfr. Hilmann.
The man is the middle term between the divine and the ground. Then the soul of the man is the center of the world, where divine and terrestrial meet her. The man has the liberty to decide if to inhale the tall one or to lose himself in the lower part, has the privilege to perceive both the divine things and the terrestrial things. The accession to God ends with a gradual run done of knowledge and love.
How observes Aivanhov in "Man's Two Natures, Human and Divine " man is set to the limits of the animal world and the divine world; its nature is therefore double and it is important that he takes conscience of such ambivalence to win her and to overcome her. If in the sacred texts it is written "you are gods" it is for remembering the presence of a superior essence to the man hidden in him. So, he has to learn to manifest it."
The Nature for Ficino is the Symbol of the unity of the Immortalize Love that has produced it, even if this appears disguised in the deceptive multiplicity of the creatures. This Love produces all the Realities, inclusive that visible in which we live. This gasp of love he manifests perpetually the creation of reality and it extends, to return to his origin, inhales in turn, to rejoin. This trial back of love towards himself ends above all through the trip of the man.
In the comment Tale of Eros and Psyche (The legend of 'Cupid and Psyche, or the Tale of Amour and Psyche) of Apuleius, Ficino talks about ecstasy of lover as "furor amatorius", because 'who really loves tries to rejoin himself to God, to the part of itself, to create the "spirituals circuits" from God to the soul and from it to God. The eros is winged, as explained Plato, because it can conduct the man towards the spiritual salvation.
Despite Ficino had been orderly priest, he succeeded in proposing a new vision of the Christianity (cfr. introduction to the Enneads of Plotino)... it is the true and taller form of one "Tradition", about a common religion and natural precedent... the run of the divine Revelation is not initiated with the Christianity, but it started to be revealed also before, in the investigation and in the works of Zarathustra, of Hermes Trismegisto, Pythagoras, Plato...
How said M. Ficino " It was the supporter of an ideal of Humanity to respect all of his members, that only Humanity that looks for the Light - the only Light - also practicing and crossing different streets."
Traditionally, the Initial Philosophy, the intention are established to know the soul, to explain the divine nature of the sexual energy, to disclose its sacred finality, to illustrate its formalities to direct it.
Certainly, it is not an easy job whose result can be programmed to temporal level. It doesn't deal with applying mental techniques in theory, tout court, but to develop, day by day, with humility, simplicity and tolerance also towards themselves, a state of conscience raised, a whole daily behaviors permeated by the desire to live that ethical values proper of the teaching of the Gospel... And we have to intervene on the behavior of life.
The utility of the Initial philosophy derives from the fact that it can offer the cognitive and methodological tools to face this run of improvement and perfecting. All of them desire to spiritualize, to embellish their own sexuality to change indeed, the it is necessary to know, suitable methods and Love from who intends to change.
We will talk, therefore, some disciplines of the initial philosophy (cabala, alchemy, symbolism, tarots, astrology, the homeopathic way) in synthetic way necessarily with the auspice to furnish internal levers to our visitors to analyze and to face better the demonstration of love and t sexuality in the daily life.
The Chakras and the Kundalini
Inside every human being there is:
- a network of nerves and sensory organs that are in contact with the external physical world and it corresponds to the traditional structure of man according to the western culture that the soul adds you;
- as well as a thin system of channels (nadi) and of centers of energy (chakra) and this corresponds to the structure of the thin bodies according to the oriental mystical culture.
The most ancient story where the word is mentioned chakra, it seems to attribute to Sees: the god Vishnu is described while it is coming down on the earth bringing among his four arms a chakra, a flower of lotus, a baton and a shell.
The term sanscrito Nadi derives from the root Nad that means "movement" and the Nadis are the channels through which the Prana (the vital strength) it flows for the whole thin body of the man.
Chakra in Sanskrit means wheel and represented as vortex of energy that rotates in our body.
The sleeping strength at the base of the coccyx, called Kundalini, it is the reflex of the Divine Mother who is in us. The Greek talks about "Pneuma", the Islam of "Ruh", the Christians "Puff of the Saint Spirit", the Hebrews of "Shekhinah" and, still first the Sumeris revered "Inanna", the mother goddess that gives the spiritual birth and the sacred puff.
The chakras are also represented by the flower of lotus, sacred in India, that is born from the mud as a flower of few petals and it is disclosed and it evolves up to become a" lotus from the thousand petals." As the flower of lotus also the man can develop departing from the ground of the instincts up to reach the maximum spiritual conscience, the illumination, the true awareness of the Itself, or according to the Gospel, "the Second birth."
This thin structure represents, under the symbolic profile, a spiritual suit that the man possesses, but that he doesn't succeed in wearing yet. The Saints, the Teachers have succeeded in this assignment and the test is furnished by the spiritual gifts that they manifests.
In fact in this sketch it can be observed around the head, in proximity of the last chakra (Sahasrara), the presence of an aureole, of a bright bundle: symbol of holiness.
Every chakras possesses different spiritual qualities. These qualities exist to the latent state... when the Kundalini wakes up him and goes up, it acts on the chakras that open as the flowers of lotus... then the spiritual qualities proper of every chakras start to be revealed in our life.
The development of the chakras, or goes up again of the Kundalini it is therefore, at the same time, a process of spiritual ascension.
To illustrate the formalities of gone up again of the
kundalini we can furnish these simple indications.
Along the acantha, we have the central channel Sushumna through which it has to go up again Kundalini. This channel to facilitate the ascent of the kundalini must preliminarily be polishes up through the purification.
To the left and to the right of the channel sushumna, and in some points are crossed, we have the two Nadis or current, Ida and Pingala, that as spirals go up again long Sushumna and they finish at the base of the nostrils.
In this sketch we observe the two tides that climb in the way of snakes and aloft the two heads of an only snake meet him. Aloft we have the crown of the initiate the enlightenment
Little by little kundalini climbs, it wakes up again the situated chakras along the acantha.
These sketches underline as the awakening of the Kundalini is already contained in the famous symbol of the caduceus one of Hermes, very diffused in our days.
Another symbol (ouroboros) is the snake eats the tail, underlines the same trial: the join of the opposite ones, of the masculine and of the female one...
The study of the Chakras is, therefore, the study of a thin, therefore real physiology even if less thick subject of that that supports the physical apparatus and however influential on the nervous and endocrine system. Every chakras, correspond particularly, to determined nervous ganglions and determine glands of the endocrine system. Then, every chakra can be in partnership to specific parts of the body and particular physiological functions.
While in the oriental culture it is strong the tendency to directly act on the chakrases through postures, mantra, prayers... in the western culture it would owe, instead, to prevail the referable Christian run to the initial teaching of the Gospel: the quality of the behaviors, of the feelings and of our thoughts, it naturally produces the development of the connected spiritual gifts to the chakras (The Saints represented with the aureoles). Then spiritual exercises in narrow sense (prayers, meditations...) is needed in the life of every day.
However, the awareness of the chakras is the fact that every human being possesses latent spiritual gifts.It can help us to mostly understand our divine nature and the importance of our choices and our behavior of life. There is in fact a link among thoughts, feelings, behaviors, mental and psychic comfort, health of the body.
The science by now has shown the relationships among subjective world (thoughts and feelings) and nervous system and, in general, the health of the physical body.
We have not therefore thoughts and feelings or a visible thin subject (with the actual scientific tools) so strongly to act on a thick and visible matter or the physical body.
The chakras, the centers energy, if they don't correctly work they negatively act on the incretory glands and on the health: we think about they can stop energy. The chakras, besides, bring energy in vibration, they are intimately sensitive to the vibrations of the colors and the music. From here, the diffusion of the music therapy and the chrome therapy.
"Modern physics confirms us these philosophical conceptions when they recognizes the undulated nature of the subatomic particles that they constitute, at the end, the subject. According to the mechanical totality, in fact, the subject is never inactive, but it is an aggregation of atoms in continuous movement. Also the inanimate objects, also seeming macroscopically immovable, in reality, to microscopic level they show one vibration movement of theirs. They wave, even if to such a low frequency to be seemed immovable. The chakras are known as energy's centers, wheels or gears of an energetic system, also says energetic body, that overlaps to our physical body vivifying it. I am energy in movement for excellence, propelled you of becoming, and continually they rotate in every of us, with a frequency of vibration that increases, gradually, from the inferior chakrases, to low vibration frequency, because more neighbors to the subject, to the superior chakrases, to tall vibration frequency, more neighbors to the mind and the spirit". (S.Tassoni)
Here are the names of the chakras. 7°: Sahasrara (chakra of the crown). Literally "Thousand Petals." This energetic point is found on the cranial summit. 6°: Ajnaì ( chakra of the mind).. 5°: Vishuddha (chakra of the throat). 4°: Anahata (chakra of the heart): 3°: Manipura (chakra of the solar plexus). 2°: Svadhisthana (chakra of the navel): 1°: Muladhara (within this chakra resides/sleeps the kundalini shakti, the great spiritual potential).
The Sublimation - Sexuality with homeopathic doses .
"Subliming the sexual strength and getting a perfect
mastery of itself, it isn't necessary to complete all the experiences
described in the texts on the Hindu or Tibetan tantrism. Another Tantra-yoga
that overcomes it. exists and I am a fervent supporter of it. One of
the techniques of this tantrism consists in learning to love without
waiting for being beloved... " O.M. Aïvanhov
The initiatic philosophy transmitted by O.M.Aivanhov finds a point of different equilibrium from the traditional yoga tantra.
He writes, to such intention M. Mirabail in his volume "Dictionary of the esotericism" (.Mondadori):"O.M. Aivanhov talks about another way: a sort of loving homeopathy" susceptible to wake up again in the beings, also in the life of couple, the spiritual gifts that are present in each one of us.
As we have anticipated in the initial page, certainly it is not an easy job, whose result can be programmed to temporal level. It doesn't deal with applying mental techniques in theory, tout court, but to develop, day by day, with humility, simplicity and tolerance also towards themselves, a state of conscience, a whole of so many small daily behaviours more and more elevated, so a day it can be tasted, also on the earth, that fullness, that joy to our soul strongly and naturally long for.
It is not enough in this field to impart prohibitions, it is necessary to furnish explanations, methods and to put the sexuality in the ample sketch of improvement of the attainable man through the cycle of the reincarnations. The embellishment of the own existence cannot be imposed but it has to be the fruit of an internal need warned sincerely.
The spiritual job that we'll get to begin will be never lost, will belong to our more intimate baggage and we will find again him/it in the following incarnations.
For us Western, it is not essential going in India to find the methodological answers for the job of sublimation about sexual energy. Also teaching Gospel contains the truths, the principles that it is necessary however to translate in concrete methods in rules of daily life.
About relationships among practical yoga and the parables of the Gospel see the volume "Man's Subtle Bodies and Centres. .
In the work of O.M.Aïvanhov, suggestions and methods transmit him to
rediscover the divine nature of the sexual strength with the purpose
to live love and sexuality in balanced way, for the spiritual elevation
of the single one and the couple.
Talking about spiritual life it doesn't mean, precise Aïvanhov, stopping eat, to drink, to sleep, to breathe, to be children, but mean doing better everything. Every day would be necessary to practice the sublimation or the substitution, to make to flow inside of us every day a new water, for way of living states of conscience you divine, marvellous. All it takes is wanting to succeed him, it also need the deep knowledge of our human and divine nature the acquisition of methods.
"Many people come to me for complaining about particular discomforts and unbalances, and I have always said them "Why have you stopped loving? These troubles derive from the fact that you have compressed love inside of you; then you are repressed ending up devastating everything. The love is a powerful stream, but since you didn't know it since you were not illuminated, you have swept away all the barriers. If you want to save you from these torments, you have to love, love day and night, love all the creatures… at this point you'll never let the time torment you because will be busy! Instead now, closer than you, you are stingy of love and the things are more complicated. You are generous, and you will be safe; you give your love to all the creatures". (O.M.Aïvanhov)
The volumes where you can read the thought of Aïvanhov about the matter we postpone dutifully, are numerous.
Recently, P.
Riffard, in "The Dictionary of Esoterism") has put O.M.Aïvanhov
among the greater twelve characters of western esotericism, of every
time, beginning from Orfeo, Pitagora...
Textes of O.M.Aïvanhov
"Love is impossible to define or explain, it is all things at once... a power, a principle, an emotion, a feeling, a powerful force, inspiration, understanding, everything comes under the heading of love. But for love to be effective you must understand what it is, you must think of it as an instrument, a magic power you can always make use of. For instance when nothing is going right, when you are sad or discouraged and disillusioned, when you think everything is lost and the world is against you then the only thing that will help you is love. Whatever happens to you the solution is to go on loving, loving all creation, all humanity. The greatest philosophy, the greates wisdom and light, are hidden in the words: never stop loving."
Relationships, love and sexuality are issues which humanity continues to struggle to fullyunderstand. Without a new spiritual understanding of love and sexuality we will continue to suffer, relationships will fail and the true happiness love can bring will continue to be an unreachable dream.
The teaching shows that men and women are reflections of the divine principles which like the union of spirit and matter create a very powerful union which raises their love to new heights and is a source of inspiration for all.
"The next time you take someone in your arms, try to project them all the way to heaven and linkthem to the higher. A man should address himself to the Divine Mother through his beloved and sheshould address herself to the Heavenly Father through him, instead of limiting their exchanges tothe lower regions, both of them will be linking themselves to the Source. In this way both of youtake the riches God has given you, life, and the emanations and warmth of mutual love, and insteadof using them for your own pleasure, you drink together the purest form of love from the highest source."
Sexual energy is a great gift, the source of our life force and supports
the continuationof humanity.
It can be likened to combustible fuel which if used wisely and directed towards a spiritual ideal propels us to a higherform of love which brings lasting joy, inspiration and fulfilling relationships.
"The sexual force is a gift from God, it is we who must learn how to use it. Countries which have great deposits of coal or oil under their soil have become immensely rich because they make use of their resources. Those who do not know how to use them, burn them. In the same way, the sexual force is an energy which we must learn to use so that we can turn on the lights, light the fires and set all the engines within us in motion."
Whether one chooses to be single or in a relationship, sublimation of the sexual force is a work which reaps immeasurable rewards. Repression or promiscuity both have undesirable consequences but there is a third solution. With a commitment to a high spiritual ideal and by linking ourselves to our soul and spirit we can transform our sexual energy to develop our fullest potential as human beings and to bring heaven down to earth.
"To master the sexual force you must have a high ideal, a tremendous love for perfection, purity and beauty. This is not easy and needs an entire science if you are to succeed. Without a high ideal, without an aspiration to live the divine life, it is not worth struggling against the sexual force because you will not succeed in sublimating it. You will only repress and this is not a solution to the problem of sexuality. Only a tremendous love for a high ideal will allow you to sublimate your energies."
Satisfaction of the sexual instinct is one of the greatest sources of pleasure a human being experiences – but it comes at a price and is transitory. By changing our attitude towards intimate relations, and considering them a spiritual work, then pleasures of a more lasting and divine nature can be experienced.
"The secret of control, the secret of sublimation, is to seek work
not pleasure. You say "But suppose I hold my love in my arms… what's
the point if I'm not looking for pleasure?.
There can be joy, there can be inspiration, there can be wonder and ecstasy, if you have a heightened consciousness …. is that not more than pleasure? When a man and woman are together sharing a divine emotion, without being carried away, then their communion, this tenderness between them, is something so expressive, so beautiful. It is a form of pleasure of course, but superior pleasure, something divine which makes them immortal."
"The Kingdom of God will only come on earth when human love is made more spiritual. May those who are enlightened and who have a high ideal in love, know they can work for the Kingdom of God with their sexual energy. May they love each other, embrace each other, but always with the idea that this love is dedicated to the realization of something divine. If they do this, they will produce such beautiful emanations that the angels themselves will be amazed and in their delighted wonder, will bring all sorts of gifts to lovers.

Vol. 13 Love and Sexuality Vol.1
Vol. 13 Love and Sexuality Vol.2
Izvor P213AN Sexual force or the Winged Dragon
To further study the works of Aïvanhov
Sexuality tends to be self-centered. It drives man to seek only his own pleasure, even to the detriment of others. Love, on the other hand, thinks of the other's happiness above all else. It is based on self-denial and sacrifice: the sacrifice of one's time, energy and money, even the sacrifice of one's gratification, for the sake of helping the other, of allowing the other to blossom and develop their full potential. Nothing is more beautiful than love, when you are ready to do without, to give up that you have or what you enjoy. Spirituality begins precisely at the point where love prevails over sexuality, when a human being is willing to wrest something from himself for the sake of another. As long as you are incapable of sacrifice, you will be unable to love.

Sexual Force or the Winged Dragon
The dragon is not pure fiction: it is the symbol of our instinctive, primitive forces and is common to all mythologies as well as to early Christian iconography. The great challenge of the spiritual life is to conquer, tame and use those forces to reach the highest summits of the spirit. The fact that this fire-breathing monster with the tail of a serpent also has wings shows that the forces it embodies have a spiritual destination.
Sexual energy is like petrol: if you are ignorant and use it carelessly you will burn yourself; your very quintessence will be destroyed by this all-consuming force. But Initiates, who know how to handle it, use it to move freely about the universe. This is the true meaning of the winged dragon

Man's Subtle Bodies and Centres
For thousands of years men have worked to multiply and amplify the sensations and perceptions entering their consciousness through their five senses, and it is this play on the keyboard of the senses that thay call civilization and culture. Well, is this not rather meagre? However much we cultivate and refine our five senses they will always be sverely limited in scope for they belong to the physical plane: they will never be capable any reality above and beyond the physical. Until human beings recognize that there ate other areas that invite exploration, other dimensions to see, touch and breathe, they will never experience new, richer, more far-reaching or subtler sensations. Each of our organs is specialized: it has its own particular function to perform and it can convey only its own particular type of sensation. In order to experience other, new sensations, we must call into play those other, subtler organs and centers which we all possess.

Hello Noisebridge Community,

I am writing this email to inform everybody that I was assaulted at Noisebridge. First and foremost this was not an extreme case and did not involve any injury.

Miloh, Justin, a couple of other people from OccupySF (Skud, and another who's name escapes me), and myself were cleaning until the morning hours of ~4:00am. I think this was on Wednesday morning (but need to double check for the exact day). Sometime after (don't know the exact length of time that transpired), I decided it would be a good thing to take a nap for about an hour (because I only slept 11 hours in the past 72 prior due to finishing up the walls in the main hall; mudding, sanding, cleaning, and painting.)Ā

At this time the multi-colored couch was adjacent to the Alan Turning class room wall (across from the Cafe area). Before I decided to crash out on the couch, I had ask Justin (who was siting at the cafe table facing the main area) if he could wake me up in a half hour. I don't remember the exact words of how the conversation progressed, but some how we agreed for him to wake me up in an hour and a half (and Justin had a friendly calm neutral tone at this point). Then I fell asleep.

I then woke up to Justin sitting on my feet telling me to get up. For about the first ten seconds I was confused to why he was on my feet in the first place. Five seconds my feet started to hurt and I then asked Justin politely and he did not get off of me. My feet then started to hurt more, and I was still wondering why he would not comply with my request. It then gotten to the point were I started to yell "You are hurting my feet, get off of me." When he continued to sit on my feet I shimmed my left leg out (as I was laying on my right side) and was cocking it back to kick him off. (There was another person whom can discuss how the conversation went as well.)

There was another person who was from OccupySF who heard the whole incident and came to my aid as I was getting ready to kick Justin. He then ran and stood infront of where Justin was sitting and specifically stated "If you don't get off of his legs I will get you off myself." Justin then responded by giving him permission to by saying something along "Oh yeah, go for it."

After that happened the person then picked Justin up (as he was still sitting on my right leg and causing it pain) and started yelling at him for not getting off of my leg. All that person did was pick Justin up off of me, and then stood face to face with him and complained about being on my legs in a very aggressive way. Justin then started insulting him and the OccupySF movement. He then started being stereotypical toward the person because he was associated with it. The person started to insult him back. (THERE WAS NO PHYSICAL ALTERCATION BETWEEN THE TWO BESIDES THE OSF PERSON PICKING HIM UP)

While that was going on I continued to lay on the couch as I didn't want to have anything else to do with Justin at all. Justin then later tried talking to me about the incident, and I told him specifically that I want my space and don't want to talk to you. It had taken about a half hour for him to even get to that point of understanding.

-----------------

Moving forward to the early hours of this morning... Justin approached me to talk about the situation and I decided that enough time from the incident has transpired to discuss it because I felt comfortable discussing it with him.

As the conversation progressed, Justin kept trying to (what I feel was manipulate me) into thinking he had done nothing wrong, and I was at fault. The first thing he said was something along the lines of it was my fault for not "'wanting to talk to him the whole day after the incident' and 'because I only wanted to talk to him on my terms'. Well yes there is a very valid reason why I didn't want to talk to him and only wanted to when I felt comfortable.

As the conversation progress, he then tried to state that I didn't give him a chance for his defense. I then informed him that what he did was wrong: I'd asked him nicely numerous times to get off of me (until I started Yelling at him), and that it had taken somebody else who came to my aid to remove him from me. (If he didn't get picked up by that other person, I would have kicked him hard).

The conversation then had gotten to the point where I didn't want to talk to him anymore because of this (what I feel) is a B.S guilt trip to make me feel bad. I then tried to clarify it in a very clear way to him: "You woke me up laying on my feet; I asked you to get off kindly for about 30 seconds; it then had taken somebody else to remove you; if he didn't I would have kicked you as my foot was cocked; you don't have a defense for that. He then kept trying to go on about his defense or and trying to say he is trying to understand how I feel.

I then started to scream loudly to get the attention of John Ellis to intervene. I stated specifically "I don't want to talk to you any more, you assaulted me. If you want to discuss this further, then I will discuss it at this Tuesday night community meeting." He then said something along the lines of I can't believe you are blowing it up this big; you are blowing this up. I am not going to discuss it this Tuesday. I then told him that it is not being blown up because you don't understand what you did was wrong. I then even said I do not want to talk to you right now, and he kept talking to me.

I then stated that if you want to talk to me it will be through a third person (as I didn't and still don't want any direct contact with him). He still kept talking to me as I specified I did not want to talk to him (in addition I also told him that he was being really UNEXCELLENT to continue on) then John Ellis came out and understood my what I was saying "I don't want to talk to him", and then recommended he stop talking to me. It had taken about five minutes of John's presents for him to finally stop talking to me.

He then walked toward the door and said that "Why am I surrounding myself around people who bring me down, and I should think about that as well." then left.

MY THOUGHTS ON THE AFTERMATH OF THE WHOLE SITUATION
 - I didn't want to spend time interacting or interfacing with Justin because I felt uncomfortable.
- The reason why I wanted to talk about it tonight was because I didn't think just would give me this trollie-sudo-manipulitave-trying to make me out as a bad person-guilt trip, and we could talk about how I was feeling when he was laying on me.
 - Also to reiterate to him that what he did was Assault and was illegal (after the incident; I even told him to look it up).
- I am sick of violence will do the following if I feel assaulted (and encourage others to do the same) let other people know in the immediate area, contact the community. Also call the police if it becomes an emergency.
 - I do hang out with people who bring me up. There is nothing that I find negative that I find about the Noisebridge community, except for Justin's actions, and one other person's (name withheld) possible actions. Almost everybody in the Noisebridge community has brought my spirits up in some way or another, and I only hope to do the same.
 - I would feel okay with talking to somebody about this incident as well i.e. Miloh, Danny, Liz, Mitch, etc.
- It is okay for Justin to still hangout at Noisebridge as long as he doesn't try to discuss anything with me directly. I can be in the space with him without engaging him and vis versa.

In addition, I do apologize for the length of this email and feel that every word needed to be typed.

- And now back to fixing my Ubuntu / Macbook that crashed
Good morning
