There are a great many things that we do as a nation that would make several countries angry at us.   I can see it well.   I have often thouht that if we started staying out of other peoples buisness we would not have as many problems ourselves.   But one of the biggest problems I see is the UN.   The US Military often ends up being the largest backer for most UN operations in any country.  That tends to push who evers hate toward the US.  

I also am begining to see more and more that our government is functioning less and less like it should.  The checks and balances system is a smoke screen for what is going on.   We are becomeing a country of too many beliefs and too many laws.  Most people don't see this because they try to look at in on the large scale.  It is however much easier to see of the smaller scale when you look at the individual states how things run.  Often things that are not in the public interest but rather a personal belief get past into law because they are piggy backed on with other laws.  A perfect example of this is California and its no smoking policy.  In passing this law they have taken the right away from not only the people but the buisness owners.  The bottom line of the law says that you can not smoke in or at any public facility.  Resturants, bars, bowling alleys, and parks.  
 Thngs like this show very well how the people in power force thier won opinions on to the masses.  It is the same with the Federal Government as well, but they in turn try to force thier opinions on the world.  Why do you think that the Anti Terroist movement that the US started got so much backing and very quickly.  The US government made it very clear that if you were not with us you were against us.  I mean come on we ousted an entire government from the middle east because we did not like thier views.  If we had just left it alone from the begining this entire ordeal would not have happened.  If other countries want to fight amoungst themselves, fine let them.  Just don't let them bring it here.   But we could not stay out of it and as a result we brought it to us.

I am begining to bable so I will stop.

Tyrone...

Have you even managed to some kind of name or identity from him?

I would as like to know if any one has noticed a small hole or mark about 1 inch down from where the neck meets the chest plate.

MBA - Mobile Body Awarness.

Fenris-

Yes I use my imagination a lot when learning anything actually.  I find that it helps the mind become more familiar which helps the body become more familiar.  Very much the same way in which you described.  But a while ago I begain to explore this further.  As I walk down the street I use the various people that I run across to aid in my training.  How you may ask? (Only because I know you will.)  As some one walks towards me and past me I imagine the various things that they could do to cause me harm.  I size them up.  I consider thier size, frame, how they walk and move, the look in thier eye, and thier facial expressions.  All of these things can give you some idea of how a person will move and act in a fight and so I apply this to my imagination.  I picture what that person would do and how I would counter.  I figure I work out about 10 to 15 different possibilities with each person.  I have found that this helps considerably with sparing since it can give you a wider base for some ones possible actions.
 I also do something else that my brother in law taught me.  It helps to become a little bit more familiar with your own body using normal movments.  I often think very heavily on actions that I am performing.  Even on seemingly simple things like taking a drink of water.  I pay attention to the movement of the arm and hand, how they work together, triggered by a single thought.  This becomes adventageous when ingauged in combat.  It helps to refine your thoughts to a singular point allowing you to become more focused on what is going on, and eventually you don't end up putting as much thought into what it is that you need to do but rather what you are doing.  It make it easier to look at it later a figure what you did correctly and what you did not.  This being so you can learn from it.  There is hardly any point to anything if you can not learn from the experience.

 This one of the problems I find with most schools.  They do not teach this kind of training and I have found it to be very helpful in the overall learning process.

---A Handfull of Interesting Facts About the Body---
All things refer to the correctly placed pressure and are messure in Pounds Per Square Inch (psi)

3 psi to remove a persons ear
3 psi to disocate a knee cap.
7 psi sends said knee cap skipping across the floor.
3 psi breaks an elbow
9 psi will shatter it completely
7 psi will remove a persons upper lip.
7 psi will break a thigh bone.
5 psi will break a knee
7 psi will break a shine
5-9 psi to dislocate a shoulder.

Despite all these frailties you can still take the average human leg and suspend over a ton from it befor the knee seperates.

The list continues.  I find it very interesting that people in general don't inadvertantly kill themselves with day to day living.  I find the human body a very interesting machine.  It is extreamly fragile and strong at the same time.  The possiblilty or a person just tripping and landing wrong a dieing as a result is an insanely high possiblity but yet it rarely happens.

"It is obvious that practicing martial arts increases personal energy, but how? What is it that makes it more than just exercise in the energy stakes? Even those who dont intentionally mean to gain more energy from their training reap the same benefit"

I have been giving this some thought as of late.  Trying to attempt to find the connection and looking for a way to use that to help the manipulation of it.  So far I have come up with this.  The best relation I can see is like in the NEW system you end up focusing rather heavily on the body.  It's position and strain its under and so.  
Example, a simple punch.  You do not simply blindly throw your fist out.  You are thinking of every thing that goes into that punch.  Your stance, the bending and straightening of the arm, the slight rotation as the arm extends, the point where knuckles strike, the snap, the retraction of the arm, and it returning to the start position.  In a sence you are feeling the progression of your actions and how each relates to the other, what is to follow.
 I have been basically starting to look at it as a form of MBA.  But more general.  Instead of just thinking of the various parts of the body you are actually performing an action in conjunction.  This I suspect would make it considerably easier for people who also have no consept of energy and may not realize its affects.

I have some of the same issues with it.  I also have been considering going to one but more on a scientific exploration.  I wonder if certain abilities could be given more strength or control.  Both would be usefull.  Or even possibly open other doors.  

But I don't want to end up like Kevin Bacon in Stir of Echos......"I must Dig!"  That would mess with me too much.

I believe that it has its ups and downs.  One being you would have to trust the person you go to not to mess with you or alter your thinking beyond what you want.  Also they would have to know what to say and what not to say.

Well I switched it to tell myself to remember.  But I think it would be better if I had a different recording since my voice comes across rather rough.  But the results were a little better.  I still don't remember anything but I seem to not move around as much.

Any other suggestions for phrases that may help?

Okay what I have colected thus far.

You must be trhe active medium.  

Focus your mind on him soley.  Just as you would meditate to raise energy do so to focus your mind on his.  

Do not try to force your way in it is very difficult and requires alot which will cause you to be unsuccessfull.

I found it easier to speak to the person as you would normally, or normally to a person who is not paying attention.  Naturally this would be a thought not actually speaking.

You must ask for entry, and repeat yourself alot.  You do not need to be in the same room, or stair at him for long piriods of time.  This make people uncomfortable and they will close themselves off.

You share a blood connection which should make it easier but remain honest with yourself on your results.

There is nothing that I can tell you should you have a successfull attempt.  And should you have one you will know what I mean.  But the hardest part of it is going to be control.

I have often found also that when doing this you may catch random thoughts from other people.  Positive results can be gauged by voice pitch.  The voice should match that of your target, also with respect to images they should match also.   In the event that you catch something that is not from the intended target don't worry right away.  Just try to refocus you attempt.

I always feel the need to express this word of caution to all who do this.  If you encounter a voice that changes it pitch you must try to block it and stop.  Trust your feelings if it does not feel right stop.  When you begin to listen there may be many things that wish to say something or your focus may be too open.

You know I was out doing the usual just this last Sunday (=bowling)  and a couple of the people I go out with mentioned "Aliens".  Some asked who believed and who did not.  Although I do not whole heartedly believe I do believe it is possible.  I had a notion prior but then I watched the video on the Disclosure Project, which only confirmed what I thought.  But as with most things until I personally experience it I can not allow myself to take it as "God's Honest Truth".  But until then it remains a possiblity.

"I used to be really interested in the subject back in the early and mid 90's but it seemed like things kind of got stale if you know what I mean. "

I figure this to be a possible combination of two things.

1.  Newer information is only really available to those who dig a lot deeper.  As such I believe it has gone underground and only the die hards are aware of what is going on.
2.  There has been a deffinite switch in TV programing in moving away from that particular topic.  The US government has that kind of controll in our country, dispite what most think.   But they have used it in the past to censor certain information or purposly create other distractions.  They have a habbit of holding companies broadcasting license above thier heads.  This being to move public interest elsewhere so that things like the diclosure project do not become fully realized.  It is actually easier for the to control the media than it is to get rid of 400 some odd people with one common link.


These being an issue of the government thinking we know too much or rather trying to do our thinking for us.

I am wery curious as to why wery is spelt with a 'w'


You know I have been noticing this a lot with some of the other people as well.  It seems that some of the people here, mostly European, have thier "V"s and "W"s reversed.  I think it is a keyboard error because I have seen it in a few games aswell.

Just out of idle curiosity.  Do either of you feel some what tied to him?  A connection of sorts but not a drain in energy.

I ask because that is the feeling I get.  Like I said it has been awhile since I have seen him and as a result there is some what of a hole, I guess I don't know what else to call it.  But then again I had been seeing him far more regular than yourselves and only when I was awake. I do not suffer from sleep paralysis.  I have only had one case.  I have at time hit a point of a waking paralysis.  At least that is what I call it.  When I meditate at times I loose motor function because the body shuts down that far at times.  Only once I was unable to move after sleep.

This sounds odd but I require to know for how many years have you seen him or how many years ago was the first "visite"?  I believe I know the answer already but I will explain after.

Qui-Gon -

 Well you know every jog has it's down side.

 If you don't mind me asking, and if you do you won't hear another thing about it.  But how did you end up getting into that?  From your posting it does not seem like it is in you.

I find it some what funny one mentioned water.  It can fit into any container, can be moved with a simple gesture, and also has the power to shape the landscape.

"Be like the nature of water."  A phrase often used when teaching.  Students often either do not understand or mis-understand the deeper meaning of this.  

A lake on a warm and calm day with no breeze.  The water is calm and placide.  That is until it is diturbed.  You toss a pepple into the water and it reacts, sharply at first but then slowly building up its momentom.  The ripples incircle and spread from the center until the whole of the surface is in a state of constant movement until the moment when it returns to the calm, placide state it was in before.

Often taken that one should react quickly and move like a thunder storm until all have felt it's wrath.  But the meaning is deeper than this.  One should be like water because of many more reasons.  

Water takes the path of least resistance and so should the student.  One should be calm until an action is presented the requires or rather causes a re-action.  The first quick actions is that of the mind, the question of how fare it needs to go.  The momentom builds from there and works outward bringing the whole of the body into action, building in strength as it moves but only to find the calm, placide state it was in before.  To return the center to balance.

Tae Kwon Doe was given as an example of the more combat geared styles.  

"in fact, aikido and daito ryu are the only martial arts that i have heard of where it is taught as part of the martial art for you to wait for your opponent to attack before you should execute any maneuvers"

Tai Chi, Judo, Kenpo, Kung Fu, Ju-Jitsu, are all reaction based.  A dodge and parry format if you will.

"but the main training is physically based - and more than that, combat based."

This being mainly true in America because parents often don't like other people instilling different concepts into thier children.  This being mainly when it comes down to the meditation aspect of the arts, which I personally feel are vastly important to the learning process.  Often when one begins to meditate certain question often arise about "the why?".  The be all of spiritual questions.  So many instructors leave the meditation out of the equation as to not impose the personal beliefs on the student which then have to answered by the parents.  But meditation does allow the mind and the body to work together better.  But unfortunately the physical aspect of the arts is required so that the body can become familiar with the movements.  And the only way to truely learn is to practice through combat with others.   It is only then that your mistakes can be acuratly "pointed" out to you.

And just to stop on a lighter note a quick joke.

"So now at least I know I wouldn´t pass out if it were to happen...."

I think I still might.  I often tell people who ask about certain situations this.  "I like to believe that I would be able to handle it, to do what I need to do.  But since I have never actually been confronted with (insert situation here) I would probably just scream like a girl and pass out.  Only because that is what statistically happenes to people who are unprepaired."

Most people who are honest with themselves could probably say that they would more likely freak than be able to perform.

But honestly when/if all hell breaks loose I want to be standing next to the most needy, co-depentant person I can find.  his being that in a crisis situation 90% of the population does a 180 degree turn with thier personallity.  Those normally strong become weak and confused, and the co-dependant is most likely to be able to take charge and have all the answers.

I watched the video a couple of months ago.  I was shocked.  I have always been mildly sceptical.  The idea was interesting but I had no proof.   But I am logical and scientific by nature and was totally taken off guard by the honesty and sinserity (sp?)  of those who were on the video.  That many people can not lie about the same subject and have that many common threads in it.  If it is all a hoax then it is extreamly well orcistraited.

I believe that there is something to all of it.  We need to as a people, as a species, and as a planet to bring these issuse into the light so that the truth can be found, looked at, and verified.

I only asked because the description you gave was very similar to what I had seen.

The first being what I have mentioned earlier.  The description is very close to the "thing" that seeed to be following me for so many years.  The only difference being that I did not get the feeling of ill intent.  Most of the scared feeling I got I figured to be generated originally by my own paranoia of being followed all the time.  Now the difference could arise since I have never projected that I am aware of and what I had been seeing was a real time physical shadow.  But his out line matches the discription you gave fairly well.

Thanks for the reply Mr. Bruce.

Does the purity of the water make a difference?  IE, The more natural the water the better V.S.  softened, distilled, or any other process that would add/remove natural components.

I ask because after I posted the last time I went and talked to some of the people who claim to have seen various things in the building besides myself.  Appearences seem to be largly in rooms which would limit the amount of water lines, and usually on the upper floors of the building.  The locations that I have personally seen things have have been in spots where some one could get without crossing any lines at all, but they would be standing/walking next to or under several lines.

Also noted that we do have at least one resident spirit in the building.  His name is Carl, he was a former employee who died at the building of a heart attack.  He seems to be able to move freely through the building because people have claimed to seem him in many different locations.  This being years worth of sightings.
