Gość: © The Days of Awe IP: *.cm-upc.chello.se 17.09.02, 00:16 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - The Days of Awe do not arrive suddenly and unannounced. People have been preparing for them for a long time. The attitude of many people during the entire month of Elul is an earnest and sober one, for soon the days of penitence will begin. Undercurrents of the holidays are already beginning to be felt on the Sabbath when the forthcoming new moon of Elul will be blessed. The first real sign, though, is the day before Rosh Chodesh Elul. In Eastern Europe, the day before every Rosh Chodesh (new moon) was observed as a minor day of atonement. Most of these days were only observed by a few very pious men, however, many Jews would fast on the day before Elul and recite selichot (prayers of forgiveness). On the second day of Rosh Chodesh, which is really the first of Elul, the shofar is sounded, and continues to be sounded every day for the entire month. For these reasons, the upcoming month of Tishri (Rosh Hashanah) does not need to be announced on the preceding Shabbat as is the custom for every other new month. Everyone knows the new year is approaching. It is very appropriate for Rosh Hashanah to be known as Yom Hazikaron (Day of Memorial), because it is said that many biblical events occurred on this day or during the month of Tishri. Rosh Hashanah is considered the birth of the universe although some legends have it that the world was completed with the formation of Adam on Rosh Hashanah. Some say that Cain and Abel offered their sacrifices on Rosh Hashanah. The Akedah (binding of Isaac), and Jacob building his altar at Beth El occurred on Rosh Hashanah. It is said that Sarah, Rachel, and Hannah, who were childless, had their prayers answered on Rosh Hashanah. It is also said that SolomonÕs temple was dedicated on Rosh Hashanah. Although the rabbis condemned superstitions, it may be that a number of symbolic customs at the table may have their origins as good luck omens. Whereas Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur are mainly celebrated and observed in the synagogue, the home table also plays an important part in the family observance. The custom of feasting on RoshÊ Hashanah is mentioned in the book of Nehemiah, (8:10) where it says: "go your way, eat the fat and drink the sweet, and send portions unto him for whom nothing is prepared, for this day is holy unto the Lord." The challot are baked in different shapes, each with a symbolic meaning. Apples or bread dipped in honey is another important custom. Many Sephardic families eat pumpkin, fenugreek, leek, beets, and dates on Rosh Hashanah as a sign of fertility. Sour or bitter foods for obvious reasons should not be served. Following these two days, we continue to prepare for Yom Kippur, which is on the tenth of Tishri. Yom Kippur is generally observed as a very serious day. Even Jews who observe virtually nothing find themselves in the synagogue on Yom Kippur, even if it is only for Memorial Services or to hear Kol Nidre. Yet, according to theTalmud (Taanit 4:8), there were no happier days for Israel than the fifteenth of Av and Yom Kippur. On these days, in the afternoon, the daughters of Jerusalem used to go forth in white outfits and dance in the vineyards. They would say to the men, "Young man, lift up thine eyes and see what thou would choose for thyself: set not thine eyes on beauty, but set thine eyes on family." It is right that Yom Kippur should be an occasion for dancing for it was and is a day of forgiveness for Israel. There should be joy in having repented. On the Day of Atonement, eating, drinking, washing, anointing, putting on sandals are forbidden, according to the tractate of Yoma; however, a king or a bride may wash their faces, and a woman after childbirth may put on sandals. A sick person is allowed to eat. Children do not fast until 12 or 13, but should be trained a year or two before. One way is to fast until lunch. Another way is to encourage children to eat their main meals, but not consume any "junk" food between meals. From Rosh Hashanah through Yom Kippur, we have a chance to put our lives back into balance, and start with a clean slate. Saying "IÕm sorry! IÕll try to be better" is a great way to start the new year.ÊShanah tovah. Miryom Kass Odpowiedz Link Zgłoś

According to a senior diplomatic official in Sharon's entourage, Sharon told Putin that Israel believes Iraq has used the four years since the UN inspectors left to both further develop and effectively hide non-conventional weapons. "The time has passed when the inspectors could do a thorough job," Sharon said. Before the meeting, Putin had called for a speedy return of UN weapons inspectors to Baghdad, but said a solution to the Iraqi issue must be found by the Security Council. "Russia supports the US in its struggle against world terrorism," he said, adding, "Israel is one of the main partners in this important coalition. "We need to find a diplomatic, political solution to Iraq with the return of the supervisors, according to UN resolutions," Putin added. Putin also stressed the importance of Israeli-Russian ties and noted that bilateral trade has risen to $1 billion a year. According to the official, Sharon told Putin Israel will "know how to defend itself if attacked."

Gość: גשאדי ......nagle spoglądasz na siebie w dół spod sufitu IP: *.cm-upc.chello.se 05.10.02, 06:06 Metoda francuska Ta metoda była bardzo popularna wśród wiodących francuskich pionierów podróży astralnej pod koniec XIX wieku. W tamtym okresie Francuzi daleko wyprzedzali resztę świata w badaniu doświadczeń poza ciałem i odnotowali ogromną liczbę imponujących sukcesów. (...) Kiedy jesteś gotów zacząć, wybierz spokojny, cichy wieczór i jak zawsze dopilnuj, żeby ci nie przeszkadzano. W pokoju powinno być ciemno i dość ciepło. Powinieneś być sam. Zamknij oczy i uświadom sobie własne oddychanie. Następnie zwróć uwagę na palce jednej stopy. Skoncentruj się na tych palcach, zapominając o wszystkim innym. Poczuj, jak w tym momencie twój sobowtór astralny odrywa się od twojego ciała fizycznego. Kiedy już to osiągniesz, zrób to samo z palcami drugiej stopy. Następnie skoncentruj się na niewielkiej części podeszwy jednej stopy i poczuj, jak ciało astralne również się tam odrywa. Postępuj tak z całym ciałem, odczuwając odrywanie się ciała astralnego w każdym punkcie, aż dojdziesz do czubka głowy. Odłącz ciało astralne również od tego miejsca, tak aby leżało swobodnie wokół ciebie. Skoncentruj się na własnym czole i zmuś ciało astralne do odejścia. To właśnie tutaj świadome i nieświadome częci zaczynają się naprawdę liczyć. Zmuś je do odejścia z każdym włóknem twojej istoty, a przkonasz się, że nagle spoglądasz na siebie w dół spod sufitu. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - Odpowiedz Link Zgłoś

The projection of a potential relationship requires that the learner search for meaning among otherwise separate phenomena. Through repeated practice and successful completion of progressively more difficult exercises, the instrument encourages task- intrinsic motivation and activates a variety of cognitive functions. Cognitive functions developed Definition of the problem. Selection of dots that are relevant to the figure that is sought. Planning behavior. Hypothetical thinking and use of logical evidence. Summative behavior. Mediation of sample task Mediation of challenge is indicated in the sample task below, in which there are no given cues and the dots are numerous and close together. Mediation of a feeling of competence is important as the students compare strategies of solution. As in all tasks in Organization of Dots, there must be regulation and control of behavior. Sample task Spontaneous comparison of projected figure to the model. www.icelp.org/Pictures/OrgDotsFig.jpg Connect the dots so that the geometric figures in the first frame appear in each of the following frames.

Broadening of mental field to simultaneously elaborate information from several sources. Elaboration of cognitive categories on the basis of conceptual criteria. Use of summative behavior. Hypothetical thinking and search for logical evidence. Mediation of sample task Transcendence is reached through insight and generalization from the sample task into other areas of academic, vocational, and life experiences. Meaning is assigned to the logical processes that allow the mind to exceed the confines of the concrete experiences through inferential thinking.

Gość: 666 Sadam sponsor Terroryzmu IP: *.cm-upc.chello.se 10.10.02, 18:24 Arafat's Advisor Arrested for Transferring Money from Iraq to Families of Palestinian Suicide Terrorists www.idf.il/newsite/english/iraq.stm The Israel Security Agency, working together with IDF forces, recently detained for questioning Rakahd Salim, the head of the Front for National Liberation in the West Bank, who was directly responsible for the transfer of Iraqi aid funds to the families of suicide bombers and Palestinian terrorists. Rakahd Salim, the General Secretary of the Front for National Liberation in the West Bank, was arrested on October 2, 2002 after documents seized by the IDF during operation "Defensive Shield" indicated that he was responsible on behalf of Saddam Hussein for the distribution of money to the families of Palestinian terrorists and suicide bombers. Palestinians in a gathering that was held on September 10th , where financial support was handed out on behalf of the Iraqi government During the course of questioning by the Israel Security Agency, Rakahd Salim said that as head of his organization, he was in close contact with the Palestinian Ministry in Iraq as well as with the Iraqi Ba'ath party's United Pan-Arab Command. Salim last met Saddam Hussein in the year 2000, when he talked with him mainly about the situation of the Palestinian people. In addition, Salim said that in the framework of his activities he distributed money to the families of Palestinians who were either killed or wounded. This money was received primarily from the Iraqi government and its leader, Saddam Hussein. When questioned, Salim said that so far he received and distributed approximately $15 Million of the Iraqi government's money. How Salim Transferred the Money to the Palestinian Families: The president of Iraq, Saddam Hussein, was the one who decided that the money be given to families of the Palestinians who were either killed or wounded in the territories, and Saddam Hussein also determined the amount of money transferred to the bank. Initially, the money was transferred to the Iraqi "'Mashraf Al-Rapidin" bank in Amman, Jordan, and from there it was transferred to the Alastismar Bank in Jordan. The money was then further transferred to the account of the Palestinian Front for National Liberation in the Alastismar bank in Ramallah. Salim said that resolutions of Iraqi Ba'ath party's United Pan-Arab Command provide for the family of a Palestinian who was killed to receive approximately $10,000. A seriously wounded Palestinian receives approximately $1,000 and a lightly wounded Palestinian receives $500. Salim also said that as part of his job, he held regular weekly meetings with the heads of the Hamas, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine and the Democratic Front, in which he discussed with them terror attacks against Israel. He admitted that as senior member of the Palestinian Front for National Liberation he was aware of the activities and operations of his organization's military arm. This military arm carried out terrorist attacks in the 1970s in the Israeli communities of Kfar Giladi, Kfar Yuval and Misgav Am, among others. Sice 1997 Rakahd Salim has served as Arafat's advisor for international and political affairs. According to Salim, the Palestinian Authority is well aware of the Iraqi financial aid given to the families of the Palestinian suicide bombers. Odpowiedz Link Zgłoś
Gość: © low frequency sound IP: *.cm-upc.chello.se 11.10.02, 01:36 Wednesday, 9 October, 2002, 11:50 GMT 12:50 UK Science in search of the low rumble news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/2309505.stm Infrasound can be used to communicate over thousands of km The study of low frequency sound is giving science new perspectives on the natural world as well as helping to develop novel weapons technologies. Julian Trick reports. Sound waves so low in frequency that the human ear cannot detect them may be behind ghostly sightings and haunted buildings. Human ears detect sounds in the frequency range of about 20 to 20,000 Hertz, or cycles per second. Anything below 20 Hz is defined as infrasound, which although not heard, is experienced in the form of pure vibrations. This is not a new phenomenon; church organ builders have been using infrasonic pipes for over 250 years Sarah Angliss The discovery that infrasonic waves are present in a number of allegedly haunted houses in the UK has prompted scientists to investigate the effect of the waves on human emotions. The audience at an experimental piano recital, where the music was laced with bursts of infrasound, were asked to record their mood at particular times during the concert. Some people reported feelings of calmness and euphoria when the infrasonic pipes were switched on. However, others were unable to detect any change in mood. Starting note Dr Richard Wiseman, of Hertfordshire University, UK, believes it is the vibrations of low frequency acoustic waves, felt particularly in the stomach, which may cause the recipient to feel uplifted or create unease depending on the environment in which they are experienced. Infrasound detectors can help verify arms treaties "This is not a new phenomenon; church organ builders have been using infrasonic pipes for over 250 years to create a sense of awe in congregations," says Sarah Angliss, an engineer and composer involved in the music project. The animal kingdom uses infrasound, too. "The discovery that elephants use low frequency acoustics to communicate over large distances may explain the ability of separated family groups to co- ordinate their pattern of movement for weeks at a time, and the ability of lone males to find a mate in the wildernesses of the African Savannah," says Dr Katy Payne, of Cornell University, New York, US. Dr Payne has studied elephant communication for 15 years. She realised that vibrations in the air near an elephant enclosure at a local zoo reminded her of standing near infrasonic church pipes when she sang in a choir as a girl. Deep burst Further investigation revealed that elephant calls range from 5 Hz (infrasonic range) to 50 Hz (audible range) and in the right conditions can travel many kilometres. Blue whales are also known to use infrasonic waves to communicate. Low frequency sound waves travel huge distances in water, allowing the whales keep in touch over hundreds, if not thousands, of kilometres. However, the underwater hotline is now under threat from noise pollution created by human sources such as ships, submarines and drilling operations, which create large amounts of infrasound in the depths of the ocean. Some whales are also thought to use huge bursts of infrasound to stun the mysterious giant squid, which have never been seen alive in their natural habitat, before devouring them. Sound shot A more sinister use of infrasonic waves is in the application of non-lethal weaponry. Elephants are a focus for research Since the 1950s, scientists have been developing infrasonic devices which produce acoustic waves in the 1 to 10 Hz range. Sound waves at these frequencies were found to vibrate internal organs, incapacitating opponents for hours, even days and sometimes leading to fatalities. The main difficulty in developing these types of weapon is the huge amplitudes required to make them effective, and then directing the waves to a specific point. Early warning Non-military applications for infrasonic weaponry would include crowd control and personal protection. The huge destructive power of infrasound is apparent in nuclear explosions. Waves of infrasound can be detected 2,500-3,500 km away from a blast in under two hours using a monitoring network set up under the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty. The same network is used to monitor geophysical processes, such as earthquakes, volcanoes, avalanches and severe weather, which also produce the low frequency sound waves. Monitoring of such activity could give rise to advanced warning of catastrophic events saving thousands of lives across the world. Odpowiedz Link Zgłoś

zupagrzybowa ...nie akceptowanie jezyka i gotowych pojec... 11.10.02, 09:57 "Może to nie rodzaj zdolności ktora czyni z człowieka pisarza,ale fakt nie zaakceptowania niego jezyka i pewnych gotowych pojęć. Z początku jest się ,wydaje mi się,tylko glupim,glupszym niż wszyscy inni,co wszystko wiedzą natychmiast.Tak wiec zaczyna się pisanie jako ten co chce wyzdrowieć z trudnej dolegliwości i opanować chorobę psychiczną - conajmniej w trakcie pisania..."

Gość: svenne \_________________Terror_NIE_!!!_______________/ IP: *.cm-upc.chello.se 16.10.02, 22:47 5 October 2002 Explosives Laboratory Uncovered in Jenin IDF forces uncovered yesterday (14 October), an explosives laboratory in Kabtya, south of Jenin. Among others, the laboratory contained a bomb which was safely destroyed in a controlled explosion, as well as barbed wire, electronic devices and chemical materials. In the last month, IDF forces uncovered five explosives laboratories in the Judea and Samaria area alone. On 9 September, an explosives laboratory was uncovered in the Jenin refugee camp, and on 22 September another laboratory was discovered in the city of Jenin. An explosives laboratory was discovered on 29 September in Charbata, west of Ramallah, and on 2 October another one in the village of A-Lebed east of Tulkarem. Three wanted men were arrested yesterday near Hebron and ammunition was found in the area. Two other wanted men were arrested near Shanur, west of Tulkarem, another one in Nablus, and a third one near Ramallah. Odpowiedz Link Zgłoś

Please keep in mind all ANY translation (interpretation) of the Qur'an will most definitely contain errors In its natural language (Arabic), the Qur'an is the direct Word of Allah (God) to mankind through the prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). Any translation of the Qur'an no longer retains that 'official' and perfect status, however it can be tremendously helpful to beginning students wanting to learn more about Islam. We would strongly encourage those want to learn about Islam to purchase a hardcopy of the Qur'an but with the following conditions: get one with commentary (tafseer) make sure the tafseer is scholarly (e.g. references to reasons behind a verse, references to hadith and sunnah, etc.) Unfortunately, this interpretation presented here does NOT meet this simple conditions. To the best of our knowledge, an excellent English translation and commentary of the Qur'an is Maududi's recently published work "The Meaning of the Qur'an". This work took more than forty years to complete, and was published beginning in the mid to late 1980's. Maududi's introduction to each chapter of the Qur'an is included at the moment, but the complete commentary is not online (yet!). ;) Odpowiedz Link Zgłoś
