The Misses and Why He Metaphor

Finally, after about 16 years of 'wife' allusions, I think I get the metaphor; It's because she 'misses.'

This post pertains mostly to why I myself don't actually perform materially the things talked about in A Page In The Life blog, and am merely relegated to being an armchair scientist--after all, everything can be made to look very good on paper, the proof is in the doing.

"Those Who Can't...."

The short answer is that I wasn't the person meant to benefit from the real-world advantage of having done or discovered any of the multitude of things Revealed in the Quran, or any other Scripture when it is understood properly.

Otherwise, in my life I would have found myself in the right jobs, the right places, the right support, all the elements that go into making things 'Right,' but I didn't.

My part having been reduced to simply teaching or de-coding the Quran, so that those it was meant to serve may find themselves in more provident circumstances.


Surah 39 Zumar
اللَّهُ نَزَّلَ أَحْسَنَ الْحَدِيثِ
كِتَابًا مُّتَشَابِهًا مَّثَانِيَ
تَقْشَعِرُّ مِنْهُ
 جُلُودُ الَّذِينَ يَخْشَوْنَ رَبَّهُمْ
ثُمَّ تَلِينُ جُلُودُهُمْ وَقُلُوبُهُمْ إِلَى ذِكْرِ اللَّهِ
 ذَلِكَ هُدَى اللَّهِ
يَهْدِي بِهِ مَنْ يَشَاء
 وَمَن يُضْلِلْ اللَّهُ فَمَا لَهُ مِنْ هَادٍ (39:23

39:23)  God Promulgates/Teaches the Finest Metaphors
A Scripture of Similitudes (Consistent...) in Manifold terms (enfolded, multifaceted)
It makes shiver the skins
of those who are in awe of their Lord
Causing their skins (beings) and their hearts to incline toward God's Remembrance.
This is the Manner in Which God Gives Guidance;
He Guides with it Whom He Wills (to be guided) and,
whomever God let's go astray, what other guide have they?

Before my friend Francis gets on his 'pity' platform for me, I want to make it clear that the onset and the development of this blog did serve me in ways that are immeasurable.

It helped me refresh what was left of my brain after one very unfortunate environmental 'accident.' And the most noticeable problem was having lost my fluidity in speaking (forced speech, wrong words, failure to even find the right words...)

I got clued in by 'being told' to start by breaking down my own father's name Ibraheem=Ibra.him== 'to free them', 'their freedom'...(I won't take credit for that brainstorm, my Late Father may have more to say about it).

Surah 14 Ibrahim
وَمَا أَرْسَلْنَا مِن رَّسُولٍ إِلاَّ بِلِسَانِ قَوْمِهِ
لِيُبَيِّنَ لَهُمْ
فَيُضِلُّ اللّهُ مَن يَشَاء
 وَيَهْدِي مَن يَشَاء
وَهُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الْحَكِيمُ (14:4

14:4 And We Never Send a Messenger Except Speaking His Community's Language
To Clarify for them.
(With it) God Misleads whomever He Wills,
and Guides whomever He Wills,
and He Is the Most Powerful, the Wisest (to Rule, Render Judgment...)

My take on it is that the Human Brain really is just about the most perfect Relational Database ever engineered, and this exercise helped me to re-establish most of my own lost functionality. Still not 'normal' but 'highly functional'; to the average person on the street, they could never guess I ever had a problem.

Throughout the Quran there is an embedded reference to 'relational databases' in the context that the messages themselves are multifaceted, or of a manifold nature, in that they have an outward implicit meaning, and then enfolded within each Sign is more explicit information. (See: The matter of the multiverse;  fractals (if it walks like a duck), and;  eternity (Letter from Capt. Bennett))

This is why there is a strong emphasis on the interpretation of metaphors, or allegories in order to derive the hidden (occult) information veiled within the mystery--the Quran, a Mystical text, as a Practical Tool; here used for Science and Math, but the methods applied here can be readily extended to other fields.  The caveat emptor is to never interpret them in such a manner as to let selfish interests or sedition rule.

Surah 12 Yusuf
وَكَذَلِكَ يَجْتَبِيكَ رَبُّكَ وَيُعَلِّمُكَ مِن تَأْوِيلِ الأَحَادِيثِ
وَيُتِمُّ نِعْمَتَهُ عَلَيْكَ وَعَلَى آلِ يَعْقُوبَ
كَمَا أَتَمَّهَا عَلَى أَبَوَيْكَ مِن قَبْلُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَإِسْحَقَ
 إِنَّ رَبَّكَ عَلِيمٌ حَكِيمٌ (12:6

12:6) (God Said to Joseph) "In this manner Your Sustainer Elects You, and Will Teach You the Inner Meaning of  Metaphors (Dreams, Events, Stories...), and Will Complete His Blessings upon You and upon the House of Jacob;
As He Bestowed it upon Your forefathers before, Abraham and Isaac.
Truly, Your Lord is Omniscient, Judicious!"

12:21
وَقَالَ الَّذِي اشْتَرَاهُ مِن مِّصْرَ لاِمْرَأَتِهِ
أَكْرِمِي مَثْوَاهُ عَسَى أَن يَنفَعَنَا أَوْ نَتَّخِذَهُ وَلَدًا
وَكَذَلِكَ مَكَّنِّا لِيُوسُفَ فِي الأَرْضِ
 وَلِنُعَلِّمَهُ مِن تَأْوِيلِ الأَحَادِيثِ
وَاللّهُ غَالِبٌ عَلَى أَمْرِهِ
وَلَـكِنَّ أَكْثَرَ النَّاسِ لاَ يَعْلَمُونَ (12:21

12:21...And in this manner we Established Joseph throughout the Earth
And Taught Him the Interpretation (Inner Meaning) of Metaphors (Stories, Dreams...)
And God Champions His Will (Manifests His Will)
Yet, most People are Unaware.

Surah 16 Bees
وَلَقَدْ نَعْلَمُ أَنَّهُمْ يَقُولُونَ
إِنَّمَا يُعَلِّمُهُ بَشَرٌ لِّسَانُ الَّذِي يُلْحِدُونَ إِلَيْهِ أَعْجَمِيٌّ
 وَهَـذَا لِسَانٌ عَرَبِيٌّ مُّبِينٌ (16:103

16:103) And We Know that they say (accusatively),
"It is only a Man who teaches it to Him," and the language of the One they wickedly point to is foreign (non-Arabic speaking),
and This (Revelation) is obviously in the Arabic tongue, Clearly Revealed (elucidated here in English).

Having understood certain aspects of the Message, the intention is for it to be renewed or propagated anew throughout the Human Experience (not only because it was Abraham's wish that it be so, and not because everyone has to be a 'mohslimb'--which sounds to me like a 'banana plant branch') so that those not familiar with the scope of the information contained within it or those hearing it for the first time may benefit from it.

And, for the rest of us armchair warriors, the remembrance of it helps our brains on a physical level to keep senility at bay, by the simple act of having to recall a factoid or two, or too many.


Surah 51 Zariyat
وَذَكِّرْ فَإِنَّ الذِّكْرَى تَنفَعُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ (51:55

51:55 ...and Remind (of it), indeed the Remembrance (of Quran) Benefits the Believers (Faithful)...


Surah 80 3'abassa
أَوْ يَذَّكَّرُ فَتَنفَعَهُ الذِّكْرَى (80:4

80:4) ..or Remind him of it (Scripture) that he may have benefitted from its remembrance...


Surah 87 A.A3'la
سَنُقْرِؤُكَ فَلَا تَنسَى (87:6

87:6) We Teach You (Make You Recite It) so You do not forget...

Of a certainty, a proven method to hedge against forgetfulness, should you ever need to 'follow that fish.'

All that, and it helps keep my mind off why my son's Texts reach me while his Phone calls don't even register in my phone log--What? I gotta know telephony from A-Z, too?

Humanity

"Men are so necessarily mad, that not to be mad would amount to another form of madness." --Blaise Pascal

Since the Space Ship Building Mission is temporarily suspended until otherwise informed, and yet still feeling the pull-- out of force of habit-- to visit and update this blog, I have gone through and peppered it with relevant quotes having to do with Madness and Insanity.

Note: 'Peppering' implies having excercised some level of restraint since I could just as easily have Salted it; but given the News that Your WIFE Is A Lunatic-- not that I suffer from lunacy but have come to enjoy it very much--I thought YOU would appreciate the nexus.

BTW...Insanity in English means Madness and sounds just like the Arabic word for "My Humanity",  إنسانيتي  and if One happens to be afflicted with a lithp it may just as well be given as "inthanity" which means "My Woman"  or "Bend/Fold" or just as likely to be mistaken for,  if not listening carefully,  انفنتي  "Infinity".

The Real Issue...zzzz

During the last segment of the Bill Maher show he pulled out a picture of an Afghan slum, some of it in rubble from what we can only assume was shelling, and he wondered how it is that Muslim countries, some of the richest in the world, can possibly justify having another Muslim nation subsist in such conditions. After all, there must be well over 1 Billion Muslims in the world, surely they can cobble together enough cash as say a handful of 14 Million Jews, or whatever the point was he was trying to make.

He made his point in a very funny way, I would have to watch the program again to make it sound as good, but the point is well taken. (By the way, is Bill Maher's head really as large as it appears on screen? He must have smoked way more than he owns up to in his youth; it's absolutely bulbous--sort of like Helena Bonham Carter's head in the latest Alice in Wonderland movie).

But there really is no need to belabor the reasons as to why there is no visible cooperation between Muslims, just look what happened when the Muslim Turks tried to help out the besieged Palestinians in Gaza recently (who are predominantly Christian). And that's pretty much been the history and the usual consequence of Muslim outreach in modern times.

Yeah, I know, what's one less Muslim, or five or 1 Million--I mean, here I've been gone for over 15 years and my own kids haven't missed me; my computer at work only randomly acknowledges my logging on for each day I am there which makes me wonder if I am really there or not. Still, I get my paychecks each month, less 15% diverted to coffers that have as yet to be accounted for by way of forced 3-day furloughs each month; this despite several State University studies showing that beyond a 1-day furlough per month the State is actually losing more money with more furlough days and 2 Court rulings that such cut backs in workers' wages are in fact illegal. The aforementioned non sequitur and run-on sentence is to show that it is not only Muslims that apparently cannot manage money.

So, the reason for the lack of development among these countries must not really be fiduciary but something else. (Let's eschew the obvious reason, corruption, since that is also a symptom rather than a cause). Since it is Afghanistan that is in the limelight one reason for its lack of growth is in its being the unluckies Muslim nation when it comes to natural resources.***

Let's see--it has mud...and bricks!

A point not wasted on the US Military when they went there to bomb high-value targets and couldn't find any; most of the targets bombed in Kabul (the Capital of Afghanistan) were not worth the price of 1 Bomb we dropped on them (as far as material + labor cost; we continue to ignore the price of 'collateral damage' because the pencil-necks in accounting have not come up with a way to establish that yet).**** Images of the better built Afghan domiciles along a hillside and what an advanced weapon reduces such buildings to appear below.

And Afghanistan has been beleaguered by war in some form or another since the late 1970's, which further stunts its chance at real growth. But war is only a contributing factor and not the only reason for stalled economic development; a problem specific to Afghanistan as to why it has not joined the rest of the world economy but not the big deal of a problem.

The most compelling reason for it failing to do so is also the reason the wealthier Muslim countries have not either. It is the devestating lack of education among the population, but specifically, the female population (recall a recent incident where a significant number of Afghan girls reported strange odors at school prior to falling ill and those affected reported symptoms very much like those involving toxic exposure, yet some wrote this incident off as mere mass hysteria--this should sound familiar if you have by now read Maxie Time). And where there is a pretence at educating women in these other countries, their growth is limited by the fact that the educated women have very limited opportunities for real growth, and so goes that whole society--they have set an upper limit for their own development, they maxed out.

In many of these societies, the women basically can become doctors (but only so they can marry a doctor), lawyers (and teach law), teachers (and be educators), and so on. No one ever tells these women, "Now, get out there and win one for the Gipper!"

That is the cover story. There is also a dark side. Being an educated person I have hob-knobbed with other educated people and one time in the long distant past I met a highly educated person who told me she had won a sizeable contract to go to Malaysia and report on the Muslim-Christian conflict.

This was prior to 1985 and there was not any Muslim-Christian conflict that I was aware of and I read newspapers and listened to the evening news and talked to other professionals in my field who were usually of foreign origins and they brought the news in from their own far-away homelands. Before she mentioned it, none of us had ever heard about it. And when I checked her on this, she abashedly restated that her report would come first then the conflict would ensue. Ohhh (I can be such a Ralph Kramden, or Ed Norton at times). I went straight home and casually mentioned to my significant other we should be more careful how we choose our neighbors in the future because apparently the natives are not friendly. (Husband! Don't you worry, never fear, methinks they Cannot Kill Me Twice, Dear. And, Al, I promise not to let them see me cry--how's the old leg?).

At any rate, Muslims it would appear are not the only demographic that cannot account for why the rich portion does not help out the disadvantaged amongst themselves. Here in the Western Hemisphere the poorest nation has as its popular majority Roman Catholics. Below, we see images of Haitian living conditions prior to the recent big earthquake and after. And we also see the religious leader of the Roman Catholic Church that, should he be inclined to do so, could single-handedly float the Haitian economy for the rest of its existence without having to sacrifice the quality of his robes or shoes.

And as for those really expensive bombs we drop like diamonds from the sky, for good measure, images of the homeless in Los Angeles are also included along with a photo-op of the Mayor of Los Angeles at a red carpet event in the very same hometown. If he did not ask for an assist on their behalf from every celebrity at that fete, he was not doing his job that evening working for the disestablished among his constituency (and nice suit, by the way).

***THIS JUST IN....
Now that we know the real reason why the US is over there and by some miracle we have not found that elusive Osama, the real question is: When exactly did we first 'discover' these vast stores of Afghan mineral deposits and how much of their own country's wealth do the Afghan's get to keep?
****These newfound riches will also help the pencil-necks in accounting come up with a figure as to how much an Afghan's life, aka 'collateral damage' is worth as well; let's see $908 Billion/29 million population is about 31,310++ USD. Note: How the pencil-neck accountants have figured out exactly how much unmined mineral deposits are worth, but are clueless as the value of one human's life born in Afghanistan.

A Day At The Beach

Sometime in 2001

Him: Look at you, waving at that helicopter as if they can see you!

Her: They came out of nowhere--I was just letting them know that I can see them.

Him: To them you look like a drop of rain in an Ocean…do you mind if I ask why you are just sitting in your car, why you don’t step out and walk down to the beach. It’s a beautiful day!

Her: Not feeling well.

Him: Why? You don’t look like there is anything wrong with you.

(Protracted silence)

Him: What exactly is wrong with you?

Her: I had a toxic exposure… I have a headache…they say it’s asthma…it feels more like seizures. (With every packet of information she is forced to relay her agitation grows more evident; she had come here to withdraw and not have to deal with people only to find this random passerby with nothing better to do but engage in conversation).

Him: Oh…I see…where was the explosion?

Her: There was no explosion, just a slow chronic buildup of toxins in a tight building where I work…

Him: Yes, but when was the explosion? There is usually an explosion in these cases (he says pensively).

Her: (slowly shaking her head No).

Him: Where do you work?

Her: Government office.

Him: (Nods knowingly) I see--Government! Do you see that building there? I think that it is a government building (he casually points to a lot across the street)

Her: There is no building there…(the irregular knoll didn’t appear to be large enough for a 2-bedroom home let alone a government building and the strictly residential neighborhood was far too opulent).

Him: Sure there is, don’t you see the drive way; the access road around the back?

Her: Excuse me, I am going to open the car door now and step out. He backs up to allow the door clearance.

Her: (Looks at the spot he had pointed to and Wonders what he is talking about, clearly there was no building standing there) No, there is no building there that I can see.

Him: Well, perhaps when you come back in a few years…my name is John, by the way, what’s yours?

Her: RXXXX

Him: AXXX?

Her: No-- RXXXX.

Him: SXXXX.

Her: (Exasperated by now at having to repeat her name 3 times, and wondering how he can know her older sisters’ names) It’s RXXXX.

Him: Oh! RXXXX! (He says while at the same time shifting the expression on his face and his voice to look and sound just like her late father)

Her: It was nice to meet you, John, I think I’ll go down to the beach and catch a prayer.

Him: (He holds out his hand and they shake hands farewell, then he resumes his initial demeanor) Good-bye…for now. (and he winks impishly, so quickly that she doubts seeing him wink).

As John watches her make her way down to the shore and he realizes exactly how she finally got the help she needed, he laughs his head off!

What The Alien Has To Say
(still cranky because re-entry is a \ \ (bichon frise) )

It's obvious to me why the report was written that way (in response to the Über Right article).

Had the report authors demurred to the vanguard it Not only would make me the last Woman on Oceana that Witnessed what they go around doing to each other while calling it ‘air freshener’ and leave me with the memory of a tortured baby in my arms; but it would also mean that I am the last Man standing.
:
And given my proclivity to be creative with their architecture and my predilection for rearranging the ‘furniture’ it would bring a whole new meaning to the Washington Monument.
No matter what theory or label they may like to attach to 'terrorists' and 'terrorism' it would be incomplete if they obstinately cling to laying the blame elsewhere and not consider their own contribution to the Oklahoma City bombing and the Columbine High School massacres taking place. (If you do not have the stomach for Death then Do Not Deal in it; find some other creative way to get your point across).

9 Surah Tauba (Repentance)
إِنَّ اللّهَ اشْتَرَى مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ أَنفُسَهُمْ وَأَمْوَالَهُم بِأَنَّ لَهُمُ الجَنَّةَ يُقَاتِلُونَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللّهِ
فَيَقْتُلُونَ وَيُقْتَلُونَ وَعْدًا عَلَيْهِ حَقًّا فِي التَّوْرَاةِ وَالإِنجِيلِ وَالْقُرْآنِ وَمَنْ أَوْفَى بِعَهْدِهِ مِنَ اللّهِ
فَاسْتَبْشِرُواْ بِبَيْعِكُمُ الَّذِي بَايَعْتُم بِهِ وَذَلِكَ هُوَ الْفَوْزُ الْعَظِيمُ 9:111
:
9:111 Indeed God has bought of the Believers their Souls and their Possessions for theirs is Paradise; they fight in God's Cause and they Kill and are Killed; God's Promise is binding on Him in the Torah and the Injeel (Gospel) and the Quran; and who can fulfill His Promise better than God? Rejoice in the Bargain you have made, it is a Supreme Triumph!
;
Basically, Sign 9:111 is telling us that unless you have the Keys to Paradise and you can come and go there as you please, you have no business killing people (or being killed for that matter).
:
Now you see why the alien thinks these people killing and terrorizing themselves and each other cannot be Real. After all, we don't see anybody terrorizing the Swiss and they are sitting on everything that is of real value--money and chocolate; and it would appear the Swiss don't have to pay any price for their freedom since apparently it comes free of charge (none of us pay toll when we exit our mothers); oh, and they have clean potable water throughout their cities' public drinking fountains.
:
How else can this poor alien reconcile what it expects to See based on what is in the Books and what is being reported in the Papers, eZines and the Evening News?

5 Surah Ma'ida (The Table)
إِنَّا أَنزَلْنَا التَّوْرَاةَ فِيهَا هُدًى وَنُورٌ يَحْكُمُ بِهَا النَّبِيُّونَ الَّذِينَ أَسْلَمُواْ لِلَّذِينَ هَادُواْ
وَالرَّبَّانِيُّونَ وَالأَحْبَارُ بِمَا اسْتُحْفِظُواْ مِن كِتَابِ اللّهِ وَكَانُواْ عَلَيْهِ شُهَدَاء فَلاَ تَخْشَوُاْ النَّاسَ
وَاخْشَوْنِ وَلاَ تَشْتَرُواْ بِآيَاتِي ثَمَنًا قَلِيلاً وَمَن لَّمْ يَحْكُم بِمَا أَنزَلَ اللّهُ فَأُوْلَـئِكَ هُمُ الْكَافِرُونَ 5:44
:
5:44 Indeed it is We who Revealed the Torah, in it a Guidance and a Light; (all) the Prophets ruled by it 'those who surrendered themselves' (Muslims) to what they Guided to; and the Rabbis and the Hebrews (Jews) in what they archived (preserved) of God’s Scripture and they were Witnesses over it. So do not fear the Masses and do not barter My Signs for a trifling gain; and those who do not Judge by what God Reveals you will find them to be the Disbelievers (Unfaithful, Infidels).
:
3 Surah 'Imran (The 'Imran; the Family that includes Zacchariah, John, Mary and Jesus)
نَزَّلَ عَلَيْكَ الْكِتَابَ بِالْحَقِّ مُصَدِّقاً لِّمَا بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ وَأَنزَلَ التَّوْرَاةَ وَالإِنجِيلَ 3:3

3:3 He Revealed to you the Book (Scripture) Ratifying the Truth (Rightfully Confirming) what is between their hands (what has been Revealed to them before) and He Revealed the Torah and the Injeel (Gospel).
:
To scale the gravity of what is being cited here one must only stop to consider who stands to benefit by the deteriorating performance of our education system and why Scripture places such a high value on Literacy. And more is the pity that all this good Writing falls on conveniently heedless masses:

62 Surah Jum'ah (The Gathering):::
مَثَلُ الَّذِينَ حُمِّلُوا التَّوْرَاةَ ثُمَّ لَمْ يَحْمِلُوهَا كَمَثَلِ الْحِمَارِ يَحْمِلُ أَسْفَارًا
بِئْسَ مَثَلُ الْقَوْمِ الَّذِينَ كَذَّبُوا بِآيَاتِ اللَّهِ وَاللَّهُ لَا يَهْدِي الْقَوْمَ الظَّالِمِينَ 62:5
:
62:5 The Similitude of those who carry (profess) the Torah without bearing its burden is like that of an ass (donkey) carrying it on a journey; evil is such a lot who belie God's Signs and God does not Guide oppressive (lost) people (aka Crooks).
:

But I suppose this realization bolsters the need to support the Arts seeing how it is that people are being prevented from thinking for themselves by curtailing their access to not only a good education, but the finest education we as a society can facilitate. (Up to about 25 years ago, the United States ranked #1 in eduction among developed countries. Where are we now?)
:
But there is always a backstop measure, and by that I mean it is no coincidence that Artists can instantly express in their given media (music, graphic art, sculpture, dance, theatre, etc.) what it takes the rest of us years to develop the language adequate enough just begin to Articulate what the Artist can say with one fell stroke (Escher is a favorite; I was a lowly frosh when I first saw his Metamorphosis in its entirety (I-IV) for sale at a Soho art gallery, but unfortunately I was $10 Grand short and I had even lost my subway token that day; who/what is yours?). See? Somehow the Message still gets through; it would be nice to make it not so difficult, however.
;
What's so difficult you might wonder? This is where the cranky, but well meaning, alien gets to recount how tinkering with the normal course of events by taking shortcuts out of the mess they have created for themselves can backfire on those with less than admirable motivations (the alien is certain Quran is the last thing they wanted/expected to hear). And it has also cost the alien dearly since she now has seen both her Worldly Husband and her Heavenly Husband under the same roof and at the same time and she can't have one without feeling like she is Cheating on the other and that only makes our alien (who was none too pleased with the re-entry) even More Cranky (grammar b dimmed!).

2:261 The Parable of those who spend in God's cause is like a grain/pill/capsule out of which grows 7 ears= SN.ABL (sthene (1 kN) aluminum boundary layer;airborne laser?) and in each ear=SN.ABLE/T (diminutive) 100 grains/pills/capsules, and increases/amasses/multiplies/proliferates for those who choose (to do so/spend in God's cause or choose God) and God's Knowledge Is Wide

(perhaps Sn is also a reference to tin; but at any rate is looks to be a device that has 7 layers impregnated with 100 number of nodules/grains that do something really cool! like amplify a signal or power or whatever fuel is being contained by the aluminum boundary layer.)

14:31 Say to My servants who have attained to faith that they should be constant in prayer and spend (in Our way) secretly and openly, out of what We provide for them before there come a Day when there will be no bargaining, and no (other) course
The most direct approach is that Aluminum is itself the inductor and provides the basis for this suggested inductive device (may be a solid state device).

If this is a reference to an Aluminum air (fuel) cell then it may be of interest to note the affects of Sn on the atomic boundary layer (Al-Sn grain boundary). Sn has limited solubility in Aluminum and there have been studies wrt Sn and its effects on the sacrificial Aluminum electrode in sea water; Aluminun fuel cells can generate varying levels of power output, they are relatively environmentaly benign, and easily recharged.

The Aluminum barrier layer is effective in containing a fuel or other substance that is itself involved in generating an inductive effect or power of some kind.

For the avid Geometry aficionado who is thinking of the number 7 and frieze goups; posting to follow. Or these are just the lengths I go to just to keep myself from thinking about what happened.

As an afterthought, to those out there who find themselves thinking I am playing fast and loose with Scripture; I feel safe in my interpretation since I am not breaking any rules by adhering to the precept that the Message is Multifacetted, else it cannot be contained in any finite form; should I err, may God forgive me, but I am someone confident that I can't get too far out since the Message is Forever Secure:

سُنَّةَ اللَّهِ الَّتِي قَدْ خَلَتْ مِن قَبْلُ وَلَن تَجِدَ لِسُنَّةِ اللَّهِ تَبْدِيلًا 48:23

48:23 This is God's Way/Path/Words as it has been before (always been) And there is Nothing (that can ever) change God's Way/Path/Words. (There is Never changing God's Way/Path/Words--And He knows that for sure because He has been around the longest!).

Not Much Of A Poker Face

40 Ghafir (The Forgiving)قَالُوا رَبَّنَا أَمَتَّنَا اثْنَتَيْنِ وَأَحْيَيْتَنَا اثْنَتَيْنِ فَاعْتَرَفْنَا بِذُنُوبِنَا فَهَلْ إِلَى خُرُوجٍ مِّن سَبِيلٍ 40:11

40:11 They will say: "Our Lord! Twice You have caused us to die, and twice You have given us Life! Now that we confess our wrongdoing: How do we get out of this?"

The children ask, 'Why was the Quran handed down in Arabic?'

I am sure there is a beatific explanation for it, but since I am emotionally retarded I got the pragmatic one. For example,

Isma' .el Is.hak= God Heard (what) is (the) Truth

At once this gives the relationship between these brothers and demonstrates Arabic's function as a language bridge.

Since no one was around to hear my side of the story, this is what He heard:

'Look what they did to my baby while I was taking care of theirs.'

A word can be 2, 3, 4 letter blocks and so on and from that basic form it can be conjugated to form the femme and masculine as well as the part of speech and/or a verb and its tense. That Arabic is elliptical means you can say much by saying very little.

Life in these United States familiarizes one with all sorts of derogatory terms having to do with Camels, one is complimentary as in the case of Joe Cool (Camel Cigarettes Mascot), but for the most part not so much. However, in other parts of the world, the camel is a dutiful animal and carries out its Master's will. Such is the case in the allegorical reference to the she-camel.

54 Al-Qumar (The Moon)
إِنَّا مُرْسِلُو النَّاقَةِ فِتْنَةً لَّهُمْ فَارْتَقِبْهُمْ وَاصْطَبِرْ 54:27

54:27 We are letting loose this she-camel (Our female servant) as a test for them; and you but watch them, and patiently control yourself.

91 Ash-Shams (The Sun)

فَكَذَّبُوهُ فَعَقَرُوهَا فَدَمْدَمَ عَلَيْهِمْ رَبُّهُم بِذَنبِهِمْ فَسَوَّاهَا 91:14
91:14 But they gave him the lie, and cruelly hamstrung (crippled/disabled) her (the she-camel/Our female servant) - so their Sustainer punished them for their sin equally (Dear God, (swt) please have Mercy).

For homework, one interesting exercise is to try and convert each letter in the Quran to 1 and space to 0 to see if anything of interest emerges. Another variation would be to make the consonants 1 and the vowls 0 and vice versa.

Manamanamanama...

Manamanamanaman... ar. 'I am dreaming'
Man am... en. 'Man I am'
Man am... par. 'It's Me'

The above furthers our discussion on language and its proper usage.

The following is a restorative Sanity Check. Many of you are old enough to read this by now having first heard it over 12 years ago. See if you can remember how to fill in the blanks.

'Children. Children! This is your_____
If you can hear this, IF YOU CAN HEAR THIS
Then Know that you have _______'

You probably also can remember the rest; what you were supposed to do then and what you should be doing now.

After you finish with what you are doing, have had some nourishment and a little rest, you might like to read James Rogers' PhD, Our Keys to a Golden Future, Peace, Abundance, Fulfillment, Joy.
This self-published opus (Mar. 2008, ISBN 978-1-4347-0862-4) was adequate reading with a couple of points of interest, however, it was catalogued under Humanities, History, making the subject matter a bit misleading. The author does admit it was published in a rush and without a final edit, which begs the question, What's the hurry? Had it been indexed as fiction, I may have enjoyed it more.

Excerpts from Our Keys to a Golden Future...:

' The lesson for us is 'Don't blame the Sphinx, or God, or Queen Elizabeth, the Pope, or even the Man in the Moonscape.' When we stop blaming other people for something we do ourselves, love will be let out of prison. (The author's broad-stroke presumption being we all share the issues he has with love).

Of course, all of the above is metaphorical despite the embedded truth. (Note to self--has not yet mastered the use of metaphor).
Reality is a bit harsher. (Yes, when you are deliberately poisoned then have people try to white-wash it, and then say you did it to yourself, Reality Sucks Lemons!)The prison of love is not built of stone, bricks, steel bars, it is built of bioelectric grids in the human brain. (Again, here the author is professing we share his stilted love issues and builds a case to somehow justify tampering with the brain's 'bioelectric grid'). Now and then love is let out of prison on 'work release' and we get glimpses (I must needs to interject---those of us knowing where our Love/Heart is at had no need for a 'work release' since to many of us it was already a labor of Love). But, as I say, only now and then.' (p 3) (Funny, I still see those Waxie Time trucks everywhere and over-built steel cans of 'air freshener' with metered nozzles--indicating this 'only now and then' cosmic event is still happing more often than not--don't you think?)
Then the author goes on to describe an interaction between space Cadet JPLTRML (rough translation 'Hill of Sand', or better yet Jet Propulsion Labs Training Mojave/Las Vegas (Fort Irwin?) and his/her mission to go down to 3-dimensional Earth; an interesting dialogue but not as sensitively handled as Gordon Egan's The Real Game.

This detour into JPLTRML's assignment is followed promptly with a rather invigorating chapter aptly titled Speculative Pre-History wherein a hairy gibbon by the name Evi is rudely launched out of a tree in a painful fit of a seizure from a cosmic (comic?) event taking place 250,000 miles away that manages to spew particles into a compromised ozone layer plunging the unwelcomed beam into her head.

The effect being:

'....some neurons probably died...billions of neurons..scrambled, severing synapses by the million and making new ones by the billion.

From that moment on, Evi was different from the other(s)...' and takes her other gibbon friend Adamie aside, shows him a few things, and they have kids together.

The author elucidates us further;

'Whether the cosmic shock had fried some neurons or 'jump started' new modules may never be known. Almost certainly, Evi had a headache for a few hours as her discombobulated neurons formed and reformed strategic alliances, all according to neurological programming provided by biology for such emergencies.'
And then comes the topper---the author's ominous warning and thrown gauntlet: 'Now that you have been warned, what are you going to do?'

Children, do you see how tiresome this all is?

This thinly guised cosmic event about Evi (who BTW is not all that hairy, has never been known to sleep in a tree except with a hammock) that triggered Evi's headache (that has lasted more that 14 years thus far and not 'The almost certainly few hours') espoused by James Rogers PhD, actually took place while she was at work, in a building sealed tighter than Fort Knox with automatically dispensing 'air fresheners' carefully formulated with known asphyxiants and neurotoxic chemicals. She had the misfortune of making the connection between what was in the can and why everyone was getting sick.

She, having earned one of the best undergraduate degrees she could muster on a full scholarship and attempting to do some public good while raising her young, beautiful family (none of whom are all that hairy or related to any primates) was sensitized to this ambiance and with deliberate and malicious intent on the part of all those involved in orchestrating this cosmic/comic event (the they); she was made to succumb to it. First, by her employer that refused to move her out of the building as they had done for all the other sensitized co-workers, and then by her treating physician's refusal to grant her a medical leave of absence in order to avoid the toxic environment without going AWOL until the toxic spill was remedied. There were of course supporting actors in this scheme of things like the other doctors who were not really doctors but posers (one MD comes to mind, who is licensed in CA but only has a mailbox and no one has seen her or knows anything about her at the clinic she has presumably been working for over 14 years), and others who have a knack for re-writing her medical history or magically making her medical records go missing altogether. After about a dozen years of giving them the benefit of the doubt and trying to believe it was all an unfortunate accident she finally had to face the fact that they sadistically set her up for all this punishment.

And they did not stop at poisoning her then refusing her treatment. They had to discredit her, marginalize her, OD her, institutionalize her, deprive her children of their mother during their formative years, stress out her husband and make him doubt her, alienate her (and she is convinced they abused her body when she was unconscious and can not account for time lost while transiting from Harbor UCLA to UCLA Medical Center), and then stuck her with the bill for that ambulance ride. And this is how they treat Our good will.

Ash-Shu'ara (The Poets)
وَإِذَا بَطَشْتُم بَطَشْتُمْ جَبَّارِينَ 26:130

26:130 And will you, when you lay a hand, lay a hand cruelly, without any restraint?


Why couldn't she just quit? Somehow, her young children were convinced they needed food to eat and shoes on their feet and her spouse refused to accept widowerhood.

Clearly, James Rogers PhD has kept up with the subject matter here at A Page In The Life but just doesn't sound authentic. In fact, he may not really exist.

Holy Quran
Fussilat (Explained in Detail)

سَنُرِيهِمْ آيَاتِنَا فِي الْآفَاقِ وَفِي أَنفُسِهِمْ حَتَّى يَتَبَيَّنَ لَهُمْ أَنَّهُ الْحَقُّ أَوَلَمْ يَكْفِ بِرَبِّكَ أَنَّهُ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ شَهِيدٌ 41:53

41:53 We will show them our Signs (Our messages) in the utmost (farthest, highest) Horizons and within them­selves, so that it will become clear to them that this is indeed the truth. Is it not enough that your Sustainer is witness to everything?


Zaryati (The Scattering Winds)

وَفِي الْأَرْضِ آيَاتٌ لِّلْمُوقِنِينَ 51:20
وَفِي أَنفُسِكُمْ أَفَلَا تُبْصِرُونَ 51:21

51:20 And on the Earth there are signs to those endowed with inner certainty,
51:21 just as within your own beings: can you not see (are you so unaware)?


And did she even get a 'work release' to regroup, restore--recover? No such animal--because her employer refused to acknowledge any neurological damage had been done to her (so much for the 'brain power grid' discourse). Instead she has been forced to continue working just to keep her medical benefit so that she can continue to treat for damage that was only expected to last for a couple of hours because they--the 'event planners'-- thought they were dealing with monkey brains like their own and not what once was a genuine human's brain.



But, don't feel too bad for Evi; while her neurons were not adept at making new alliances, it appears that she herself did.

31 Luqman

وَمَن يُسْلِمْ وَجْهَهُ إِلَى اللَّهِ وَهُوَ مُحْسِنٌ فَقَدِ اسْتَمْسَكَ بِالْعُرْوَةِ الْوُثْقَى وَإِلَى اللَّهِ عَاقِبَةُ الْأُمُورِ 31:22

31:22 Whoever submits his whole self to God, and does good overall, has indeed grasped a most trustworthy hand-hold: and with God rests the End and Decision of (all) affairs.

You can't see them, you can hardly hear them, and you can't sense them readily in any other way; but when she got to the point where 'the buck stops here' He had something to say about it and now you can't see them, you can't hear them, you can't sense them in any other way.

And if a few of them managed to get away, rest assured there is not a rock or mountain big enough for them to hide under, because as it turns out her alliances have quite a reach.

Al-An'am (The Cattle)

وَعِندَهُ مَفَاتِحُ الْغَيْبِ لاَ يَعْلَمُهَا إِلاَّ هُوَ وَيَعْلَمُ مَا فِي الْبَرِّ وَالْبَحْرِ وَمَا تَسْقُطُ مِن وَرَقَةٍ إِلاَّ يَعْلَمُهَا
وَلاَ حَبَّةٍ فِي ظُلُمَاتِ الأَرْضِ وَلاَ رَطْبٍ وَلاَ يَابِسٍ إِلاَّ فِي كِتَابٍ مُّبِينٍ 6:59


6:59 And with Him are the keys to the things that are imperceptible, none knows them but He. All that is on the land and in the sea; and not a leaf falls but He knows it; and neither a grain in the earth's deep darkness, nor anything living or dead, but is recorded in an evident decree (record, book).

Why did He have to step in allofasudden?
It turns out she couldn't think of a crime big enough to commit that would earn her the pain and suffering they fomented on her and her family with their 'get-love-out-of-jail-fast' routine.
Al-Imran (The Family of Imran)

مَّا كَانَ اللّهُ لِيَذَرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلَى مَآ أَنتُمْ عَلَيْهِ حَتَّىَ يَمِيزَ الْخَبِيثَ مِنَ الطَّيِّبِ وَمَا كَانَ اللّهُ لِيُطْلِعَكُمْ عَلَى الْغَيْبِ
3:179 وَلَكِنَّ اللّهَ يَجْتَبِي مِن رُّسُلِهِ مَن يَشَاء فَآمِنُواْ بِاللّهِ وَرُسُلِهِ وَإِن تُؤْمِنُواْ وَتَتَّقُواْ فَلَكُمْ أَجْرٌ عَظِيمٌ

3:179 It is not God's will to abandon the believers to your ways: so He will set apart the bad from the good…

Al-An'am (The Cattle)

قُل لاَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ عِندِي خَزَآئِنُ اللّهِ وَلا أَعْلَمُ الْغَيْبَ وَلا أَقُولُ لَكُمْ إِنِّي مَلَك
إِنْ أَتَّبِعُ إِلاَّ مَا يُوحَى إِلَيَّ قُلْ هَلْ يَسْتَوِي الأَعْمَى وَالْبَصِيرُ أَفَلاَ تَتَفَكَّرُونَ 6:50)

6:50 Say: "I do not say to you, 'God's treasures are with me’, ‘nor do I know the things that are beyond the reach of human perception'; nor do I say to you, 'Behold, I am an angel'…



Al-A'raf (The Heights)


قُل لاَّ أَمْلِكُ لِنَفْسِي نَفْعًا وَلاَ ضَرًّا إِلاَّ مَا شَاء اللّهُ وَلَوْ كُنتُ أَعْلَمُ الْغَيْبَ لاَسْتَكْثَرْتُ مِنَ الْخَيْرِ وَمَا مَسَّنِيَ السُّوءُ إِنْ أَنَاْ إِلاَّ نَذِيرٌ وَبَشِيرٌ لِّقَوْمٍ يُؤْمِنُونَ 7:188

7:188 Say: "I can not bring benefit or harm to myself, except as God wills. And if I knew what is beyond that of human perception, abundant good fortune would surely have befallen me, and no evil would ever have touched me. I am nothing but a Warner, and a herald of glad tidings to people who will believe."

What's In A Can Of Air Freshener?

Have you seen those big blue Waxie trucks around town? In addition to femme pads and toilet seat covers they distribute automatic dispensing air fresheners . The following ingredients comprise the majority of what you find in air fresheners that go by names like Sea Breeze, Waxie Time, and Time Scape.

2EE
n-butane
iso-propane
propanol
butanol
acetone
secret perfume

And just what about these ingredients of known neurotoxins and asphyxiants makes the air fresher? As one of the air freshener sales reps said, "The mixture is meant to form small droplets in the air that linger." No Doubt prolonging contact with your skin and mucous membranes with this veritable cocktail of toxins .
