Einstein's Demands

Einstein's Demands



By 1914, Albert Einstein's marriage to his wife of 11 years, Mileva Marić, was fast deteriorating. Realising there was no hope for their relationship on a romantic level, Einstein proposed that they remain together for the sake of their children, but only if she agree to the following list of conditions.

Mileva accepted them, but to no avail. A few months later, she left her husband in Berlin and moved, with their sons, to Zurich. They eventually divorced in 1919, having lived apart for five years.

MY LIFE, MY STAND III

MY LIFE, MY STAND III

Obviously, noting in this life is simple or straight forward, least of all alone, all is connected, and one must be able to see those connections, one could, but that we are blinded by our own visions.

Friends and relatives have questions, but they don't like  my answers, they don't want answers, they want some one to just agree with them, simple life requires simplicity, not complications, not thinking, not arguments, we like to be left alone in our own worlds, dream worlds, do not like someone to come around and rock our boat.

As usual I connect things, one to the other, and that complicates peoples lives. Mt brother talks about lonely people, my sister about the future of Pakistan and my friend about the role, or lack thereof of the liberal ideology and sexualiztion  of the culture, the kids. SO are they not interrelated?  I believe they are, in  my mind they all go together, strange my mind how it works, MY MIND WORKS.


                LONELY

lonely man
looking for a friend
hoping he'll find
one day, some one
that will love him
for he
whatever may be

Lonely man
with his heart of gold
little bit shy
and not so bold
sitting in his room
staring at the walls
staring at the telephone
nobody calls

lonely man
heart filled with despair
hoping someone will notice
someone will care
icy  the winds of time
blow with force of gale
our hearts are empty shells
love is for sale

(M.N.R.)

Is it not true that, "Boredom, loneliness and discontent are the blessings of materialism.".  What if we were still hunting/ gathering for food, if we had a sick child and we did not know what was wrong and could not afford the treatment, if we were in the midst of war, or just being shot at, if we were so poor that we did not food to eat, or shelter over our head, would we be bored? lonely? sitting o Facebook or looking for love? I think not. I know, I have been in many of  those conditions though not all by any means, but IO bet you you would not be bored lonely, alone, bored or looking for love or sex.


" N , in life as in death, loneliness is suffocating. I have this challenge for you and whoever will read this post on your wall: Show this post to the stranger next to you and give him or her a hug, to the family member next to you and give him or her an affectionate kiss, and to the friend next to you, well, give her or him the warmest smile and a friendly hug. Then, I want you to copy this challenge and post it on the walls of 10 of your dearest friends on FB" so I read it. 


































I said, and hell of a cheap date,  if a wise man would have learnt to keep his mouth shut,  I am not that wise of a man,  I blame the liberal media for the assualt on woman' personality, self worth etc, so I was told, " I don't know what "liberal ideology" of which you speak..........as I know of NO liberals who promote irresponsibility. Those who engage in such practices may be liberals or maybe not...... I know some trash girls who just had to have babies at age 15 because they were "pro life".....". I have a problem now.

RANDOM THOUGHTS

RANDOM THOUGHTS

LIFE IS A GAME OF CONNECT THE DOTS, IF YOU DON'T CONNECT ALL THE DOTS OR DON'T CONNECT THEM IN THE RIGHT ORDER YOU NEVER GET THE PICTURE

This will probably mean that one can not  (at least I myself) can not have just random thoughts, and yes,  most of the time my mind likes to make a salad of things, toss them up and see what flavor comes out.

So this guy goes out and kills three people at a local strip club, there are two things personally important to me about this story, no not what you are thinking, first, this is the second time in less than one year that one of the former class mates of one of my daughters has committed murder, and two, that son of the club owner was killed in this incident and the club was open again within hours of the shooting and murders, yes I said hours.

It was just a couple of days ago that I argued with this lady on the "on point" show on the npr website, (link below) that we should not try to fix kids, society, families whatever after they become a problem but try to find ways to not allow the problems to become that in the first place. "Can you tell me how a rational and logical person, EVER, having weighed all the circumstances and the consequence of his act can go out and commit murder.", my quote.

Now that is not an original idea, Leviticus thought so also, so did Hammurabi. I am not a callous person (bragging?), but drive around your town and notice something, I will tell you later, not half jokingly I told someone,  hey the boy is dead but them girls got kids to feed and their pimps to look out for.   Really is that what the humanity has come down to?  Do you really care about these incidents?  We had Arizona, the Fort Hood, the Aurora, and then not a week ago the Wisconsin deal, the message get over it real quick and move on, so to that notice something. When you drive around town you see the national flag at half staff, recently it is at half staff more days than it is not, do you care? Had you even noticed? Nah move on, life is short indeed, have some fun, you can not stop. Have some fun, grief is to be by the book, some psychologist tells you , may be even your preacher or Imam told you , "he is in a better place", he is with the Lord, blah blah, so you forget, forget and move on, have some fun, so your soul mate is dead surely you can find someone else, "he will want you to move on" and we become mechanical, automatons.We should just buy shorter flag posts and save on the cost of the rope too.

Reading, Writing And Character by NPR's On Point

Reading, Writing And Character by NPR's On Point


and this too

  As usual, and I am happy to see that everyone here has an opinion. And as usual they don't know what they are talking about. How do we, as a nation talk to the kids about self control when we, the country, the society have none ourselves, at
ANY level. And we laud and promote bad behavior, even Reward the same.
No wonder the panel, the questioners and the comments here are way OFF
the mark. It is hard to find one fine point to start from, so I will pick one at random. We live in time of " just do it", and "have it your way" for starters. We do things for "fun"
We have a culture where you can not correct someone for their bad
behavior, start with say President Clinton having an affair, to Romney
lying about health care, if it is our Christian ethos or pop psychology
whatever the basis, we must first define some right or wrong for our own
character. If it is all in the name of, "it is a free country" then we
must accept our total and abject failure right here. You can not give something, to someone, that you do not yourself posses.
Before going further let me mention this much. In the name of freedom
and progress we have become a clueless and ignorant folk that not only
need advice on parenting, we need advice on that all natural and basic
act of sex, isn't progress just great, how in the hell did we ever get
here? Now, do you really want to educate me on how to teach children
about self control, in this culture where moms have daily visits with
there boyfriends, dads run out with their secretaries, children are
taught the basics of making out on Disney and Nickelodeon. Where bad
girls and bad boys get rewards, Zack and Cody run the hotel, and
spending money at the mall is a favorite pass time. Children of three
and four are brought to the store and told, "get what you want".

Would cuts in defense spending be a bad thing?

Would cuts in defense spending be a bad thing?



If you read my blog, I said as much in 2003, that 9/11 stopped US from going in to depression, that the interest rates were kept low to allow government to keep borrowing and ended up causing housing bubble, and in 2009 that Obama will keep
the war going in Afghanistan to keep providing defense jobs, it is not a secret, Republicans know that and so the Dems, cutting defense ( best paying jobs in US ) will hurt the economy, and a lot of our high ranking military /civilians get kick backs as jobs with contractors.

MY STAND, MY LIFE , II

08/02/2012

MY STAND, MY LIFE , II

By any standard,  I have had an amazing, wonderful, crazy, blessed, blissful, rough and whatever adjective you want to throw in, LIFE. I tell you my story, (only parts of  it though), Not to garner your appreciation, sympathy or applause, but to let you know, if you understand, why I say the things I say.

I have a front seat on life. You can not pigeon hole me like your average person, and I am totally average. I could write a book, but I don't want to waste your time, like Obama, Bush, or Cheney or Clinton'. I have dined with princes and generals, deputy ministers, and I also dined with pimp who's hooker cooked my super. I have been with a stripper and with a choir singer too. I have had five star meals and been in a charity soup line, I have slept in a Salvation Army shelter, under a bridge, in a leaky shanty and in five stars hotel, I have hitch hiked, and bought a Mercedes for my daughter, (and also drive one).

WE DO NOT LIVE IN A JUST AND A FAIR WORLD, WHAT YOU AND I HAVE IS NOT BECAUSE OF SOMETHING WE DID  TO EARN IT, ANY MORE THAN SOMEONE CAUGHT IN A WAR OR OTHERWISE DESERVES TO BE RAPED OR TORTURED OR SHOT.

Thus the first step to being/becoming a human is to get over yourself.  When we think of our self as smart or educated we MUST acknowledge first that we ARE GIVEN( some may even call it a god given gift), AN ABOVE AVERAGE BRAIN, and secondly that we had the opportunity and the resources to use this gift  (Brain) and most important of all that what we do know and call our knowledge IS actually handed down to us by the millions who came before us, over the centuries, and gave us this head start, left on our own and out and away from all we would still be some where trying to figure out what this hard on was  in our hand.

MY STAND, MY LIFE

08/01/2012


 MY STAND, MY LIFE

I must admit I have the most wonderful life,  charmed yes! When I look back at where I started from, what I went thru, where I ended up and the twists and turns of my path along the way, may be I should not be here, may be I should not be making this claim, I give credit, where the credit is due, it has been a wonderful trip.

You wonder why this BS, what I try to prove here, why am I even writing this, so here it is. My life, my stands on the subjects, my ideology does not fit a pattern, you could not pigeon hole me if you tried.I tell you in the intro to this blog, ( I have never changed the intro after day one I posted here) I will tell you the truth, of course it is the truth the way I say see  it see it becomes the only truth that I know. Ironically, I am no different here, we all know the "ONLY TRUTH" that we know. Yeah, it is funny this way.

Let e go back to the beginning as to why this particular rant at this particular time,


I posted this picture on my face book [page got two comments, and also two likes

1st ,
Are you serious? Blaming Obama for what was done in the name of America when the congress is a dysfunctional institution and the Senate is 0.0001 of what it used to be? What are the alternatives? A President belonging to a cult? A man who m
ade the most racist remark about the Palistinians? Pllllease! Obama did not bring the American economy to its current situation, Cheney, Rumsfeld and Wolfowitz did. He tried to close Guentanamo but who supported him? I love Obama for he is a human being who cared and still cares but who wants him to succeed in America? The East and West cost States, not Jesus Land or the Cult.

Yesterday at 12:12am via mobile · · 1
and the 2nd 
1. http://www.salon.com/topic/guantanamo/


2. Cheney, Rumi, and wolf killed the economy? Probably a bit too partisan to be any where near correct.... Did Cheney kill Glass stegal, nope... that was done by Bill Clinton & friends.
Did Rumi lower interest rates to spur a housing boom? Nope, that was done by Greenspan, a political appointee of BOTH Bush & Clinton.


3. Accountable? Please explain why the Obama administration has prosecuted MORE people under the Espionage Act of 1917 then ALL other Administrations combined, times 2.


4. NDAA... So he didn't sign that into law?


5. As commander in Chief, he is responsible for the "wars". Last I check we are bombing more muslim nations than we were under Bush.


6. GMO foods... Pretty sure the administration has been on board w/ this too.


So who do I blame?

let me go back a bit to the time before Obama was elected, please read this article here

 http://tombstone001.blogspot.com/2008/03/race-about-race.html

let me point out something else also, I had posted this picture a few days earlier and read the comments


July 28 at 12:46am ·




It is sad that in this time, humans have no value, women or men, girls or boys, Africans, Arabs, Mexicans, Greeks or Afghanis... May be one day, someone will stand up for those who have no one to protect themJuly 28 at 7:03pm ·


Mohammed N. Razavi Actually some one already did, 1400 years ago, and his followers are some of the worst if mot the worst abusers of human rights and the women, one reason I just don't like to be recognized as "one of them".
July 28 at 8:01pm via mobile ·  the first comment in the first picture and the second comment in the second picture are from the same person  only that the second picture was published before the first picture , with Obama in it.

 Now why am I going thru the trouble of explaining, (confusing) all of this, to make sense of it, at least to my own self.

There are two truths that we must acknowledge,  one that all politicians, presidents, prime ministers, kings, sultans, dictators and even military commanders running the country all lie, all the time, and the second and the more important that, all money is imaginary, once you have got this in your head then the rest is easier to understand, whatever that rest is.

If as Obama was sold to the world as the Messiah and he knew what was up with the country he would have told us the truth and had known a way out, but that did not happen, he was just playing a game and we followed, he lied and he won, it could have been some other liar of the same capacity.  Obama promised what he could not deliver, did he know what he was talking about? Was he just "a liar or an ignorant ass", as what I called Bush on the radio in 2007. HE LIED, he told us what his bosses on the Wall Street told him to say. Here is a letter of mine that was published in the local paper in March  of 2008, http://tombstone001.blogspot.com/2008/03/reality-check.html

I promise to tell the truth, I always have on my blog at least.
I have a habit of running of at the mouth some say, ( mostly my wife) but what is going on in Syria? many want the over throw of the Alawi regime, but who will win and what the outcome will result in? HAve we not been financing the uprising, has not Israel and other so called Muslim countries, because Bashar is sheia, so we help Israel and get the ground work done for an attack on Iran, and be happy that a alawai regime is over thrown, we will pay the price and pay dearly, the Israel will be able to take over all the Palestinian territory that she wants as a result, but who cares.
here is something else for you to look at, then we will talk more
