An LAPD Northeast officer injured his leg while running after a suspect at approximately 5 p.m. near the Highland Park Gold Line Station on Thursday.
An ambulance took Patrolman J.C. Duarte to an area hospital after he suffered a leg injury attempting to hop over the fence surrounding the tracks at the Highland Park train station during the chase of a man suspected of stealing a cell phone.
The injury was not believed to be severe, said Senior Lead Officer Mark Allen.
Allen said that the suspect was eventually arrested by officers near a house on Avenue 58 on the side of the tracks opposite of Marmion Way.
The pursuit began, Allen said, after the suspect allegedly stole a cell-phone from a woman waiting for a bus in front of Antigua Bread at Avenue 57 and North Figueroa.
The woman began to chase the suspect and the pursuit was eventually taken up by two Patrolmen in the area, one of whom included Duarte.
The suspect hopped the fence and boarded the Gold Line Train. Officers ordered the train to stop, at which point the suspect exited the cabin and fled toward Avenue 58, where he was eventually apprehended.

St. John's Prep is pleased to announce Ellen Arnold, sophomore, daughter of John and Margaret Arnold of Kimball, as a new member of the National Honor Society, Virgil Michel Chapter.
The National Honor Society (NHS) is the nation's premier organization established to recognize outstanding high school students. More than just an honor roll, NHS serves to honor those students who demonstrate excellence in the areas of scholarship, leadership, service, and character. These characteristics have been associated with membership in the organization since its beginning in 1921. Today, it is estimated that more than one million students annually participate in activities of NHS and its middle level counterpart, the National Junior Honor Society (NJHS). NHS chapters are found in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, many U.S. territories, and Canada. Chapter membership not only recognizes students for their accomplishments, but also challenges them to develop through involvement in school activities and community service. Both NHS and NJHS were founded by and are programs of the National Association of Secondary School Principals (NASSP).
Holy Cross School competed in WILD Country 99's "Wild About Reading" contest in February and ended up the winner! The contest asked the schools to get their community to go to the radio's website and vote for the school they thought should win the prize of $1,500 for the school library. Holy Cross School was awarded $1,500 for the library! Among those in the photo are five students, principal of Holy Cross Amanda Steichen, and Jeana Meyer at Leighton Broadcasting's offices in St. Cloud where they accepted the prize. Submitted photo.

Here are some questions for you: What is the body portion of the butterfly marking? Answer – Nosefork. What's the act of giving birth by rabbits? Answer – Kindle or Kindling. According to color genetics how many colors of domestic rabbits are there? Answer - 2 - Black and Chocolate. Wow! There sure is a lot to know and these are just three examples of the questions answered by six Meeker County 4-H'ers as they participated in the Regional Rabbit Bowl Contest held on Saturday, March 2, in Foley. Our Junior Team competed against 11 other teams from across the state. This team was new to project bowl competition and did a great job! Congratulations on your achievements!

Isn't in the buids directory?
What about the scripts inside the builds directory? There's an ext-core.js there?
Is that updated version of the one in http://www.sencha.com/products/extcore/ ? I asked, because I can't find Ext.Ajax.request method inside the script.
27 Feb 2013 12:59 AM #14
Any progress on this?
It's inconvenient to need to remember to change "addClass" to "addCls", among the other differences between the versions.
Also, I like to use the Google CDN, which still has only the Ext Core 3.1 version. I'm sure they'd host Ext Core 4 if it were made officially available.

Epic flooding sweeps through Carlton County
All over Carlton County there was damage from the high waters. Downtown Barnum flooded; the city park and county fairgrounds were submerged with the high waters. Campgrounds at Jay Cooke, Cloquet's Spafford Park and Moose Lake had to be evacuated. And the beloved swinging bridge is severely damaged.By: Jana Peterson, Pine Journal

When Piers Morgan asked Barbra Streisand who her favorite actor of all time was, the legendary actress and singer opened up about a unique road trip she took with the late Marlon Brando in the 1970s.
In an interview on Friday's "Piers Morgan Tonight," the actress, singer and director talked to the CNN host about Brando, her long career, the Democratic Party, her new movie "The Guilt Trip" and more.
"(Brando) wanted to take me to the desert, to see the wildflowers," said Streisand.
She said he wanted to "sleep over in a ghost town," but Streisand refused his advances.
"I was such a nice Jewish girl that I just said, 'Marlon, I can't stay overnight with you. I'll go with you for the day'," recalled Streisand.
"Marlon clearly wanted to do more than just look at flowers with you," Morgan pointed out.
Streisand said that while she did turn the legendary actor down, the pair remained friends and often talked on the phone "for hours and hours."
Fans of Streisand may be surprised to learn she considers herself to be an actress who sings and not the other way around.
"I only began to sing because I couldn't get a job as an actress," Streisand said.
In "The Guilt Trip," Streisand plays Joyce, who Morgan calls "the archetype of Jewish mama." Joyce is a single mom whose inventor son, Andy (Seth Rogen) invites her on a cross-country road trip to try to sell his product.
Streisand's career has spanned more than a half-century and netted Grammys, multiplatinum albums, Emmys and Oscars for acting, directing and, of course, singing.
"You must have the cabinet room that's the size of the New York Yankees," Morgan said. "I mean, does any of that really motivate you? Do you ever look at it and think, yes, I've not done badly for a young girl from Brooklyn?"
Streisand, 70, said losing her father at such a tender age -- she was only 15 months old -- fuels her urge to be remembered.
"I want to have made marks here," she said, "and records and films, television shows, they do that. They say you existed, you were here."
Nevertheless, Streisand doesn't like performing in front of people, which she said she realizes is odd.
"I never know what to do during the applause," she said. "I don't know what to do."
In fact, Streisand did not perform live for 27 years after a 1967 concert in New York's Central Park where she forgot the lyrics to some songs in front of a crowd of more than 130,000.
Morgan told Streisand that "The Way We Were" remains his "single favorite movie of all time," and that he once even broached the subject of a sequel with Robert Redford.
Alas, movie fans hoping for an on-screen reunion of Katie (Streisand) and Hubbell (Redford) will be disappointed to learn that a sequel is just not meant to be -- not unlike Katie and Hubbell.
"I talked to Robert Redford about it," Morgan said, "and he said he had been resisting your clarion call for a sequel ever since."

can anyone link me the profile of some players or replays of experienced and good shadowblades. I've just started playing him and pretty much have ran over lots of no stats with him, but I feel as if I'm missing out on his full potential, thanks.
How do you generally build him? I generally just go tank early, insanitarius is surprisingly good on him. If your team really needs, he can easily transition into the carry, stacking tank items is just better early-mid game, as it lets you farm up your luxuries for carrying.
I've seen people go ranged int carry but none have every stomped as hard as str tank then agi carry
I can only play him properly with a tank set with items like ,,,,. But i want to know if there are any good ways to play him in his ranged form and agility form. Also when i build into str, my problem is like becoming a cloned predator without the magic immunity, i can easily be kitted by someone like armadon or a frostwolf and can never get close. And the agility ability, I leap on them to get close and switch into strength, but I have a problem chasing people, because the leap only acts as CD's conduit.
I go steamboots, nullstone, firebrand or stormspirit, harkons or frostwolfskull, insanitarius or hellflower
Late game you can ult intelligence hero, get harkons and use your e to slay ****.
i guess he should be played depending on what your team needs.if you lack tankiness strength,if you need magic damage carry harkons on int etc.

The Clutch is a straight flying, low speed disc that holds its line on the release angle. The disc is designed with very little fade in its flight. The Clutch is available in varieties of plastic, making it the perfect weapon for drives, approaches and especially putting. The Clutch also has more glide than most putters, for those longer putts. The Clutch will be available in a wide variety of colors and weights.
The Protégé Edition is very unique because of its rigid blend of plastic. It allows a disc golfer to work the disc in so that as it becomes what we call "beat" it allows the disc to have a unique curve for a negative turn shot. Its also available in a large assortment of colors.

Nonprofit uses toolbar to gain donations
Tuesday, November 22nd, 2011Tucson Arts Brigade has found a relatively painless way for supporters to donate to their cause. The self-described "civically engaged arts and education organization" has launched a web browser toolbar (which you can download here). Each time someone uses the toolbar to search the Internet or to shop, Tucson Arts Brigade gets a cut, which they use to organize mural painting, dance and puppetry events, among other things.
The idea is that you may not have time to volunteer or cash to hand over, but you probably do a fair bit of web searching. (You're reading this blog post, after all.) Why not ensure that some piece of the revenue produced goes to a good cause?
The technology that Tucson Arts Brigade is using comes from GoodSearch, a search engine that donates 50 percent of its sponsored search revenue to charities and schools designated by its users. The search is powered by Yahoo, and the money donated comes from advertisers. The idea was the brainchild of Ken Ramberg (the founder of JOBTRAK, now a division of Monster.com) and JJ Ramberg (an MSNBC anchor and the former director of marketing at Cooking.com). They figured diverting some of the $8 billion search engines make yearly to charities would be a good idea, and they created the technology to help make that possible. Since the company's 2005 launch, lots of charities have come on board.
The toolbar is no panacea for nonprofit fundraising in a down economy, but it is easy. GoodSearch makes the stats available so you can track your impact in your chosen charity's revenue. Tucson Arts Brigade has received $244.43 through GoodSearch since it started using the service in December 2010.
In this season of giving, however, this is probably one of the easier ways. That's why, although administrators have been quietly using the technology for years, they sent out an email blast about the technology only more recently.
"I think it's a great idea," said Jodi Netzer, the group's outreach and marketing director. "We'll see what happens."
Netzer is especially excited about GoodShop, an online shopping service that sends a percentage of every purchase to a designated nonprofit.
If you're going to do it anyway, why not send a little love to a cause you believe in?
Note: The initial post said that Tucson Arts Brigade began using the service in 2007. In fact, the group began using it last year.

Re: Ron Paul Issues Statement on ATF Gun Scandal
The reason Paul never gets elected is because people have the idea that voting for him makes them 'nuts,' or 'far right wing nuts.'
They buy into this idea that one man can't make a difference, but that's simply not true. One man CAN make a difference. Jesus Christ was one man wasn't he? I'm not saying Paul is Christ, but Paul is the perfect opportunity for the American people to take back the United States from these totalitarian types that run it right now. The Democrats do it and so do the Republicans. USA PATRIOT Act comes to mind. I just want a leader who is honest for once rather than helping out all their buddies that handed them money, or sidestepping the law for what they think is the 'greater good.'
Samuel Adams once said, "among the natural rights of the colonists are these: first, a right to life, secondly to liberty, thirdly to property; together with the right to defend them in the best manner they can." |

Re: Ron Paul Issues Statement on ATF Gun Scandal
Is it wise to use heroin? Nope. Should people choose to do so? Nope. Should we punish them for what they choose to do to themselves? No way. But drugs are the leading cause of crime in the United States today. We wouldn't have robberies if people weren't trying to get drugs. We wouldn't have robberies if people weren't allowed to own anything, either. Doesn't make it a good option. Punish crimes that cause damage to people and people's belongings; don't criminalize liberty.

Re: Ron Paul Issues Statement on ATF Gun Scandal
The nanny state has no right in my life if I'm doing no harm to anyone else. It's like seatbelt/helmet laws. How does not using one or the other affect anyone else? Legalizing drugs would have many benefits. But that's not what the government wants to hear.

Re: Ron Paul Issues Statement on ATF Gun Scandal
The electability of ANY Presidential candidate is very much due to their own work, past records and speeches make or break them.
How they are perceived by the "mainstream" and swing voters is key, Ron Paul simply hasn't done well in this area. His appeal to a group as small as this one has very little to do with it.

Re: Ron Paul Issues Statement on ATF Gun Scandal
The Libertarian party is unjustly discriminated against in many states where the R&D have conspired to prevent any other candidates from being allowed on the ballot in National elections The Libertarian party has to run RP as a Republican because they know they have ZERO traction as Libertarians. Sure, getting the word out is one thing, but there's a difference in dealing in reality and self deception. I dont like it anymore than any of you do, but it's no different than Perot or Nader votes. If we were to massively reform our entire electorate and actually turn it into 1 man (person now): 1 vote then we could get rid of some of those hurdles, but even today we'd still be looking down the double barrel shotgun of a President who can legalize 20 million democrats with the stroke of a pen. The Libertarians also present themselves as Independent and have ideals that are both right and left facing, but their planks make to many of either side choke, so they either stay home or they vote their original party line. Examples: Drugs - should pot be legal? IMO, yes, stop wasting time money and resources on knuckleheads that hang out at the mall and want to smoke a joint. Should that extend to coke? ehhhh... maybe. yeah, people with addictive personalities will be ruled by this drug, but it is their choice to use it at their peril, are they any more likely to commit a traffic homicide because they are on coke than whiskey? I dont think any of the history of arrests support that (which is also why most jurisdictions no longer prosecute DWI and now choose DUI) it's a big legal distinction between Intoxicated and Impaired (Impaired being = "under the influence") Should that extend to man made drugs like Meth, PCP, LSD? Uhhhhh how about not only NO, but HELL NO. Those arent random things someone will stumble across on their trek across God's green earth and decide to sample, those are some of the nastiest things we've ever made, and those individual lives are destroyed faster than any pot smoking or beer drinking slacker could ever hope to achieve. Foreign entanglements... these ideals were framed when it took months if not weeks to move people from one country to another in order to make war or hostilities. Now we can bring Global Thermonuclear War to all corners of the globe in less than 28 minutes. Yeah... I think we need to rethink the hands off, they are on their own xenophobic Libertarian policy. Lest we forget, that without the French, who we immediately stabbed in the back, we wouldn't have this country of our own sovereign from British rule. Libertarians have a lot going for them (us) but they need to prove it to everyone else in big ways, at the very basic levels first. And that has more to do with knocking on doors and talking to neighbors than it does with donating to a national campaign that will walk away with at best perhaps 1-2 dozen electorate votes in a Presidential general. Just my opinion. -Hatch. |

Re: Ron Paul Issues Statement on ATF Gun Scandal
Ron Paul is not necessarily for the legalization of drugs, and neither is the Libertarian Party, for that matter. Both are for taking the matter out of federal hands and putting back in the hands of the states, where it belongs. He wants to end the "War on Drugs" which has always been a abysmal failure, and drains our coffers of hundreds of billions of dollars every year. I get it that you are against heroin. Your posts read as if you have had family or friends that have wrecked their life with this drug. I get that, because I have family and friends that have let pot and booze wreck their lives. None of the laws out there helped any of them. In fact, they may have pushed some towards drugs that may not have had any interest if they were as legal as cigarettes. The only reason that Dr. Paul is labeled as a quack is because that's what the talking heads in the media and the higher ups in both parties have fed you. And you ate it right up. They do the same thing with Glen Beck, Rush Limbaugh, Neal Boortz, Herman Cain, and many others. The thing about Paul is he does not have the air time to get the truth out like the others I mentioned. He must be doing something right, though. The people in his district, and all over Texas, love the man. I beg you to please go read some of what the man has actually said, in context, and look up some of what he has done in his career. He likely isn't very far from the line of thought of anyone on this board when the facts are learned. He's really for all the same things that we are. He just has the stones to say so in a public forum, and then the media hacks up his words to make it sound like he's from Mars. |

Re: Ron Paul Issues Statement on ATF Gun Scandal
The war on drugs has not succeeded just as prohibition didn't succeed; and the fact is that alcohol has caused the deaths of far more people than drugs, yes even heroin and cocaine. To be in favor of laws banning drugs without being in favor of laws banning alcoholic beverages is nothing less than hypocrisy.
However that isn't the main issue. I believe it is the fundamental right of every individual to ingest whatever he chooses. It's called freedom. God has given every human being free will to make choices in their lives, even if they are bad ones. I'm in no way advocating the use of drugs, but what others choose to consume is none of my business, nor anyone Else's. Their illegal conduct as a result of drug use is. As rentalguy has pointed out, the "war on drugs" has cost us enormous sums of money, to pay for law enforcement, prosecution, and the incarceration of tens of thousands of relatively harmless individuals. That crimes of violence are committed to enable the acquisition, distribution, and use of these drugs has more to do with their prohibition than it does with the direct effects of the drugs themselves. The mob has long played a major role in promoting the drug industry, along with the cartels, and terrorist groups. These thugs know how to promote it and make it highly profitable. By their very existence they multiply the incidence of drug use over what would naturally occur if such substances were not outlawed. Think about it. How long would these vermin stay in business if they made no profit? Most drugs are easily and cheaply made but due to their illegality the cost to the user is a hundredfold. That makes many addicts desperate people. Desperate people take desperate measures to obtain the things they crave. The muggings and murders of innocent citizens is the result of this war on drugs. If we instead used our resources to pay for the manufacture of these drugs and made them available at low cost to addicts and habitual users we could put a lot of thugs out of business. This would also take the users out of the shadows and make them more accessible for education and treatment, and make them far less likely to commit violent crimes. That is the key. Laws prevent very few from using drugs. Those who want them will obtain and use them. The individual must make the choice to be rehabilitated. Forcing it on them accomplishes nothing. You see in the end it still comes down to choice, whether or not government acknowledges the right to choose.
"Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death!" |

text: Ken MatthiesenIt has been said that those who can't do, teach. That is very true in the case of Ken Matthiesen, or KenM as he likes to go by. His musical skills are oddly lacking, and any ability to learn or even comprehend music theory at any level is just not in his definition, and he knows it and accepts it. He's tone deaf, his hearing level of noise far dominates over his range of tone. But he writes, and he writes with passion undeterred by his inability to comprehend melody. He shares his writing passion with others and loves to help others to excel to the best of their abilities."Music just gets in the way of the words" he quotes Frank Sinatra when asked about being an old school pure writer in a world where everyone is writing and singing their own songs. "True, but I've been very fortunate to have found several very capable musicians to work with for melodies, and have some terrific Nashville connections for musicians and vocalists. I'm able to concentrate on my strength, which is lyric writing. I bang around some on my guitars, and a piano occasionally, but only enough to come up with a couple of bars of very ruff melody. These guys in Nashville, Los Angeles, and New York are good, and I leave them to do what they do best. There are talented melodies guys around here and in others parts of the country I co-write with all the time. Anything they come up with I concede will be better than mine, so be it, I don't fight it. But what's funny is that I can then make suggestions to improve on the melody once its something I can hear. There is a point in the process where I do have to hear it before I can finish it." Ken has no subject or genre preference, you are as likely to hear a classic rock number as you are to hear a folky/mountain song straight out of the hills of Arkansas from his catalog of songs he has had produced and is pitching. He loves to write songs, blogs, magazine articles, novels and screen plays. He estimates he has written close to three hundred songs, about fifty of which have been produced, and of those eight have been signed to single song publishing contracts for music catalogs of publishers pitching to the TV and film industry. One has been used and the others have been selected and are in the mix being presented to music supervisors of networks. Ken credits NSAI with elevating his writing skills as well as opening up many connections with Nashville. "Networking is the single most important ingredient when it comes to getting things rolling once a song has been produced. Anybody can write a song, but that is only the first step of a long journey a song must take to 'make it somewhere, and NSAI provides many doors along that trip'. |

Questions to ask your caregiver over the phone:
Is there an opening for my child? What hours and days are you open? Where are you located? How much do you charge? When is payment due? Do you charge for holidays, absences due to vacation or illness, or late pickups? How many children do you care for? How much child care experience and education do you have? How many adults care for the children? What ages doe you serve? Must a child be toilet trained?
Further questions to ask when it is a home setting:
Are there others living in the home? Who and what age are they? Who, besides the provider, may be caring for my child? Will my child be taken out of the home while in your care? Are there pets or smoking in the home?
Things to look for when you visit the caregiver's location:
Positive interactions between caregiver and children. Children getting lots of attention. Children who are happy and comfortable with their caregiver. Clean, safe, and healthy indoor and outdoor spaces. Safety features such as gates on stairs, caps on electrical outlets, and a locked cabinet for medicine, poisons and cleaning products. A variety of toys and learning materials, such as books, puzzles, blocks, and climbing equipment, that your child will find interesting.
Things to ask your caregiver when you visit:
Can I visit at any time? How do you handle discipline? What do you do if my child is sick? How do you handle an emergency? Do you have a back-up caregiver? Where do children take naps? Do caregivers have up-to-date CPR and First Aid training? Do caregivers have training in child care? May I see a copy of your license? Are you accredited? May I have a list of parents (current and former) who have used your care?
Questions to ask other parents when Checking references on your caregiver
Was the caregiver reliable? How did the caregiver discipline your child? How did you get along with the caregiver? Was the caregiver respectful of your values and culture? Would you recommend the caregiver? If your child is no longer with the caregiver, why did you leave?
Questions to ask yourself from what you have learned:
Is there a balance of free play and routines? Can the caregiver meet the special needs of my child? Which caregiver should I choose so that my child will be happy and grow? Is the child care affordable? Do I feel good about my decision?
How to stay involved once you've chosen a caregiver:
How can I work my schedule so that I can...
• talk to my caregiver?
• talk to my child about how the day went?
• visit my child in care?
• work with my caregiver to discuss
problems that arise?
• help my child grow?
• meet with other parents?

Power and casing specialist Enermax released its Apollish series of coloured case fans. Available in standard 120 mm (model: UCAP12), and 80 mm (model: UCAP8) sizes, the fans have two attractive features apart from one which enhances its functionality. To begin with, the fans come in four colours: red, blue, silver, and green. Apart from being translucent, the fans have a chrome sputtering coating that gives a metallic sheen. Illumination is care of a patented circular LED design that gives it brilliant, radial streaks of light. In terms of functionality, the fans feature the company's twister-bearing design that extends product life. These fans are rated to serve for 100,000 hours. UCAP8 spins at speeds between 600~2100 rpm, pushing 12.48~33.04 CFM of air, while the UCAP12 spins at speeds between 700~1700 rpm to push 28.98~71.76 CFM. Both fans have a rated minimum acoustic footprint of 15 dBA. The UCAP8 and UCAP12 Apollish fans have recommended price tags of $13 and $19.5 respectively (before applicable taxes). Source: Expreview
I'd like to get the 120mm blue one of these with a heatsink like the Thermalright TRUE Black 120. Thermalright is apparently working on new heatsinks that will work with AM3 sockets and don't obstruct the RAM. That + This = Terrific (if these turn out to be good of course) Imagine: + Lol, not to mention that I got the NZXT Apollo, ha ha.
if you can get it mounted the 140mm i7 on am2/am3 without having it block normal ram slots, it kicks ass, but its not cheap like alot of the popular coolers.
You're looking at the Enermax logo: http://images.google.com/images?hl=en&q=Enermax logo&btnG=Search Images&gbv=2&aq=f&oq=
Whilst Fan-Bling is SOO 2005 right now, I must admit its a kinda innovative idea to use chromed blades to reflect the light like that. I cant stand glowing fans because my PC runs 24/7 and the fans light up my room & keep me awake, but for all those 16yr old first time case blingers, just breaking out of facebook and twatter, and finally growing up & learning to build their own PC's, this is the shiz. The kinda thing you may want to show off at a LAN party, perhaps on a LAN-party montherboard... In some kind of LAN case full of blinged glowing fans & such... Hey BLIZZARD... did you know that ppl PLAY LAN GAMES??? YOU SHOULD CONSIDER ADDING SUPPORT FOR THIS NEW GAMING PHENOMENON IN YOUR FUTURE TITLES....
his post was so full of nerd rage, it warmed my room by two degrees. Then again, everyone hates blizzard right now over starcraft II... Anyway, chromed edges is snazzy. Still not as cool looking as the xigmatek achilles fan - cmon, white leds on a transparent (colored) fan? classy.
Um, how many plades does the 120mm have? All the pictures look like they are running. I want to see 160mm fans and cases with a 160mm fan at the rear. That way there is more than enough room to fit the largest CPU coolers.
Yes thank you! It's hard to find orange led fans or even orange cathodes anywhere:shadedshu...and I'm not talking about those uv led orange ones, I'm talking about TRUE Orange led's. I had to solder my own orange leds in a case fan to get what I wanted. Sorry to ramble off topic, I too get tired of seeing the old blue, green, and red themes. But any way these fan look very psychedelic
naa, they should force people to install some kind of battlenet himachi clone, loginto it, then login to battle.net then make you login to each game sepratly, that way they wouldnt have to worry about piracy, or sales for that matter, because NOBODY is gonna wana deal with that shit........ give blizzard time, they will make you login to a custom blizzard app in order to use games you paid for, kinda like steam but even less user friendly
I was gonna say. It looks like it has a lot but if it had that many, it would strain to push 70+ CFM. I wish they had a picture with them powered off.
They don't list the maximum dB, only the minimum. It appears to be a new type of sleeve bearing which is interesting (much longer MTBF) but, I'd prefer black (no lights).

Discuss Psychic Abilities for Free. No Account is Needed.
I had an epiphany this morning, a bolt from the blue as it were. While I was taxing the reaches of google to find more information I saw this website pop up a few times and I liked what I saw.
I know most of you are doing or trying to learn to do things within the realm of psionics but how many of you have given pause to the "how" of the matter? After doing it myself with mixed results for many years my thoughts turned toward a want of a better understanding. The following is my current theory about psychokinetic potential as it currently stands, including this morning's epiphany. I will make another post with my theory on how ESP, Telepathy and other remote knowledge works.
Psychic energy, like any form of energy, exists in wavelengths and has rules that it must follow. Akin to electricity, it requires a source and a destination but the hard part to fathom has always been how that energy gets from point A to point B. In nature a bolt of lightning is a release from the source and travels to a destination but it almost never is a single strand path. It branches and forks to search for the path of least resistance. Some of those branches meet back up with others while most die out from absorption. This phenomenon is the same that lead Nikola Tesla to some of his greatest breakthroughs.
How does this apply to psychic energy? The path of least resistance. In order for energy that originates within you to reach your target it has to arrive at the destination without suffering too much loss. Why does this matter? The vast majority of psionisists attempt to overcome energy transmission loss through higher output or closer proximity but this can lead to other complications, including biofeedback typically felt as a headache. What we really need is to create a more efficient path, or a circuit such as used in electricity.
To this end I would like to enlist as much help as possible. Get your cameras, psiwheels and glass ready. I would like for as many as possible to post a video showing your psiwheel movement without anything extra and then with something acting as a straight wire (cotton string, copper wire, headphones, etc) and then a third with the same wire material creating a loop (positive and negative wire touching the base of the psiwheel and you). I would also appreciate anyone who is comfortable with advanced constructs to use constructs as the actual conductors as described with the physical conductors (advanced construct users only please).
IMPORTANT -- Your psiwheel needs to be sealed and verified on the video so we can be sure there are no accidental drafts skewing the results. I recommend using tape that can be seen to overlap AND attached to the glass and surface all the way around. If you have a dry aquarium this will allow room for all three psiwheels to be set up in a single enclosure.
Please link your videos here so we can all see the results. I thank you in advance for all input.
P.S. If any of you has the capacity to create a vacuum around your psiwheels that would be even more spectacular. It would also help me collect data about possible conductors in the air versus the conduction through the yet unmeasurable fabric of reality.
Very interesting theory. I myself only practise TK, and I admit you're hypothesis sounds viable. I liked the lightning reference haha .. Interesting how we have those sparks of success at times, then other days we're just unable to do it at all .. psionics is an enigma.
If only people had done extensive research on the subject, it would make it much easier for us practitioners, knowing how it works and how to correctly do it. For all we know, i've been doing TK the wrong way my whole life. There might be a method that could cut my learning curve by years. The sad thing is we won't know in this lifetime.
Excellent post!
[quote].. psionics is an enigma.
If only people had done extensive research on the subject, it would make it much easier for us practitioners, knowing how it works and how to correctly do it.[/quote]
That is exactly why I posted here. I started looking into the paranormal seriously when I was 14, mostly spurred on by my childhood and recent life experiences. 20 years later I'm still searching for answers, but now I've transitioned to searching for the details that do not seem to exist in writing yet. I cannot do it alone and expect to get any scientific credibility. Even with a group, that will be very difficult due to the stigma on the field. If I am able to provide concrete results by asking the questions I've never seen anyone else cover then we just may solve the enigma, together.
Providing concrete proof of psionics or telekinesis for argument's sake would require a live performance (people perceive videos to be faked, regardless of whether not it is real) and scientific data documenting the existence of psionics, although i have no idea how that could be done (i'm a law student, science isn't my thing). If you need any help with anything pm me, i'm happy to do whatever i can. I'd love to know if psi is a universal energy, if there are different energies (ki, psi, prana etc), if it's just a byproduct of nerves firing, how one must manipulate this energy to produce optimum results in telekinesis, it's all stuff i'd pay to know (i think anyone would haha). It would be great if we could one day understand it all. I'm going to practice on a coin now .. after watching a video of float levitating a coin i'm motivated to try again.
I understand about videos being mistrusted. That was why I was so specific about demonstrating a seal. Before finding this site I had never tried a psiwheel and when I tried it I had remarkable results right off the bat. Spinning, changing direction, bobbing and stopping. Right before I tried to get my wife's attention I realized it was spinning on its own due to constant air movement in that room. I took it to a room with no airflow, put a mask over my mouth and nose and I struggled to budge it. That left me with two plausable answers. Either it was easy for me to manipulate the air to appear to be true TK or it was a ton of back to back coincidences.
I cannot make any conclusions at this point but the situation lends itself in favor of air being the medium/path I was using by accident. This drives home the need for controlled testing.
If it helps, i support your first theory that air makes it easier to move the wheel (or object).
From a telekinetic's point of view, when i look at an item i haven't tried to move before, i get a still image imprinted in my head. Almost like an affirmation that this is an inanimate object and it won't move on it's own. So i move it a bit with my hands, i blow air at it a little, and in those movements my mind kind of 'catches on' and i can start twitching it and move on from there. So in conclusion, seeing movement definitely helps you perform telekinesis.
Very good theory dude
Can you answer some of my questions which are posted in general,mind body and other sections.I think you would be logically able to answer my questions
I have answered a few of your questions as well as offered my understanding on a few other posts. I realize that this forum is past its glory so I am trying hard not to spam it up before others have a chance to reply to some of my posts.
Although I am not very accomplished in psionics myslef, I have done extensive research on psychic phenomena in science. Contrary to the popular opinion maintained by a small group of highly active skeptical philosophers, the field of parapsychology has been collecting positive evidence of psi phenomena for more than a century. The experiments literally range in the tens of thousands, and presently they are conducted in laboratories with extremely advanced equipment and manned by scientists with high levels of education. I admit that, comparatively to telepathy, precognition, micro-pk, clairvoyance, and field consciousness, science has collected almost no evidence for macro-pk. However, regarding other forms of psi, it is pretty well established that effects occur independent of distance or any form of material shielding. Through methods like electromagnetic barriers, deep sea submarines, and setting distances of thousands of miles, scientists have isolated psi to the point where its effects are almost certainly quantum in nature. This makes it easier to understand because quantum physics has already established that subatomic particles are in constant communication with all other subatomic particles through the Zero Point Field, a ground state of existence brimming with energy exchanges. The ZPF in fact, is the reason why nothing in the universe can reach absolute zero on the kelvin scale; the ground state of any portion of the universe contains energy that cannot be removed. How much energy? Well, famous physicist Richard Feynman has stated that a single square meter of space contains enough energy to boil all the oceans of the world. That's a lot of energy, especially when you consider that by comparison to other scientists, his estimate was very conservative.
Because of the similarities of psi to all of these quantum phenomena, it makes sense to assume that psi is literally "information", information that is able to appear at any place in the universe at any time. Most contemporary psi researchers agree on this model.
Most likely, when we are directing our intention at a psi wheel, we are sending information into the ZPF, encoding ALL the molecules of the wheel with the instructions to move. Exactly how this is accomplished is not presently understood, but one theory states that, because information exchange between particles is instantaneous (requiring no speed at all), the particles may have never really been separate at all. That means that by having a thought here, I can influence an object there because I and the object are essentially the same.
Magic, or psionics, is a wonderful way to unmask the illusion of separateness and reveal the extent of our shared oneness.
If you would like to find out more about the contemporary state of research on psi, look at: [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qw_O9Qiwqew]http://www.youtube.com/watch?... to scratch the surface.
Good books: [i]The Field[/i] by Lynne Mctaggard and [i]The Consciosus Universe[/i] by Dean Radin P.h.d
My knowledge of science and psi does not come solely from these two books or the Youtube video; I have been researching this topic for more than a year, almost obsessively. Hope this helps. Feel free to ask any questions, or to ask me to verify any of this information.
Also, although I admire your intent to pursue a theory through experimentation, I must comment that there is one essential flaw: Your manifestation of psi will be based upon your intention. Therefore, if your effect on the wheel does work better with circuits or without circuits it will most likely be a form of [i]confirmation bias[/i], because you believe one method will work better than another. To create a truly full-proof double-blind experiment, you would need to be unconscious of which setup your wheel is geared with, maybe by blindfolding and having an assistant switching the setups at random. This way, you could have the assistant measure the effect by the degree of movement. Then, you would have to conduct this experiment [i]many[/i] more times to verify. Independent replication by other people would be important too.
- Johann
P.S. I am not suggesting that psi be considered only as a science; people on this forum treat it like an art, and if it is ever to be developed, that it how it should be. The only limitations are the limitations we set.
Thank you for the eloquent response. I had not considered the possibility of confirmation bias as I have not considered more than a small handful of examples. I have other theories on the matter as well but I need to test this theory first and thoroughly before I move on as it will have significant impact on my next stage. Your blindfold suggestion has merit and I think I know a way I can implement it at home. I wish I had a reliable means to create a vacuum chamber on a lazy susan.
I am sorry that I neglected to comment on your science versus art view of psionics. I personally believe that it is equally both. I personally have hit a glass ceiling in my practice of the art so I seek a better understanding of the science. If Tesla had not sought a better understanding we would not have as many technological breakthroughs now. I don't mean to compare myself to such a great man, but it is the biggest inspiration that pushes me to want to know more.
If you don't mind my asking, what is a lazy Suzan? :)
I like your view of psionics as a science and an art; it is very much in line with my practice of Aikido for example. Although obviously a martial art, Aikido is also a detailed study of the way ki and intention flows in the body (a science). There are many kinds of sciences; objective material sciences, life sciences, psychological sciences, artful sciences, ethical sciences, mystical sciences, etc. Any system whereby humans seek to attain knowledge about some manifestation of the human spirit or the material world can be considered a science. Thus considered, science is the study of reality.
Personally, I find the research on psi in parapsychology to be enlightening.
- Johann
A lazy suzan is a rotating storage platform, typically round in shape and found in the kitchen.
Any art can be viewed by science and vice versa. Early sound measurement systems found a home in the production of certain forms of modern music. Tesla coils can be used to play midi quality music. Music can be analyzed and categorized umpteen different ways. There is no limit.
