CAN YOU FIND "THE UR" (The Way) IN THE WORD JURY?

At first Juries were made up of 24 "peers" of the accused.

Then, when it was discovered that 5% of the people (1 in 20) could not be BRAINWASHED or BAMBOOZLED, the number of jurors at trial was dropped to 12.

This almost garantees that the FORE man (who is on TRACK) can RAILROAD the decision that the SYSTEM wants.

That's what they call Just-Us.

ASTRO PROPHET'S WAY OF UR (RUB - RUE)
*K.hali* is holy key to the side-effects of brain "dam age"
 

...and the monk AY in the corner wrote the YOKE down in HIS BOOKS.

Thalia is one of the three G.RACES. The Muse of comedy and pastoral poetry.

Comprising the point and much of the hinterland of the Horn of Africa is Somalia, the country that resulted from the union of former British and Italian Somaliland at independence in 1960. It is bordered on the north by the Gulf of Aden on the east by the Indian Ocean, and on the west by Djibouti, Ethiopia, and Kenya.
 

The Ainu are an aboriginal people of the northern Pacific, who live principally on Hokkaido, the northernmost island of Japan, and in the southern part of the Russian island of Sakhalin. Unlike other East Asian peoples, Ainu possess wavy brown hair, light-skinned complexions, and abundant body hair. They also lack the epicanthic fold of skin over the upper eyelids, a characteristic of most peoples of the region. Their semitic language is unrelated to any known Asian linguistic family. The Ainu men used the bow and arrow to hunt bear, deer, fox, otter, and other land animals during the winter; in summer they fished the sea and rivers. The women gathered wild foods such as roots, berries, mushrooms, and nuts and also engaged in small-scale agriculture based on crop rotation. Their highly animistic religious beliefs included many gods of the mountains, land, sky, and sea. Most important was the bear cult, which each year culminated in an elaborate ritual sacrifice of a captive PANDA bear raised from a cub in the Ainu community.
 

Bahrain is an independent emirate comprising a group of low-lying islands located in the Persian Gulf between the mainland of Saudi Arabia and the Qatar peninsula. The archipelago's major island, Bahrain, is about 48 km (30 mi) long and 16 km (10 mi) wide. About 23% of the country's population lives in Manama, the capital city. The name Bahrain is derived from the Arabic for "two seas."
 

The sheikhdom of Qatar occupies a peninsula that juts into the Persian Gulf from the Arabian Peninsula (Arabia). On the south it shares an undemarcated border with the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and a border with Saudi Arabia that was not defined until 1999. More than half of Qatar's inhabitants live in Doha, the capital. No more than 20% are indigenous to Qatar, more than 36% are Asian, and 40% are Arabs. Almost all Qataris are orthodox Sunnite Muslims of the Wahhabi sect. Most jobs in the private sector are held by foreign nationals (primarily Pakistanis, Indians, and Iranians)
 

Galilee was the northern province of ancient Palestine. Located east of the Sea of Galilee and the Jordan River, with the plain of Acre on the West, Galilee is roughly coextensive with the boundaries of northern Israel. The province is known as both a cultural melting pot and a major farming region because of its position on the major trade route between Egypt and Syria and its fertile land.

Jesus Christ, also known as "the toll-gater's Galilean" (Matthew 26:69), was raised in the Galilean city of Nazareth, and spent most of his life there. Galilee, especially the city of Tiberias, became the center of Judean rabbinic learning after the fall of Jerusalem in AD 70 (see Masada zealots); the Mishnah was codified and the Talmud produced there. Many 1st-century ruins of Galilean synagogues have since been excavated.

BEANCOUNTER MOGHULS

The whole EMPTY shebang only grows taxes and bribes
LEBANON'S SHEBA FARM AND YEMEN'S EMPTY QUARTER

Sheba is the Hebrew spelling of Saba (Skull and Bones), the name of an ancient southwest Arabian kingdom roughly corresponding to the modern territory of Yemen. Linguistic and archaeological evidence suggests that Sheba was originally settled by Semites from western or central Arabia during the middle of the 2nd millennium BC and that by about 1200 the Sabeans were trading with nations in the northern zones of Arabia, Palestine, and Syria. Thereafter, Sheba formed a vital southern terminus for trade routes originating as far north as Mesopotamia; during the 1st millennium BC it dominated Red Sea and Indian Ocean trade.

Excavations in the vicinity of Marib, its capital, during the 20th century have revealed an imposing temple to the moon god (SINAI), around whom Sabean religion centered, and the remains of a great dam (destroyed in AD 572) indicating highly developed engineering skills. The 10th-century temple known in Arabic as the Arsh Balqus (Throne of Sheba) in Marib has been restored and was opened to the public in 2000. 

In the Bible, Bathsheba was the beautiful wife of Uriah, one of King David's officers. David seduced Bathsheba, had Uriah killed, and then married her (2 Sam. 11-12). Sheba is best known, however, for the biblical visit of the Queen of Sheba to Jerusalem in the time (10th century BC) of Israel's King Solomon (Kings 10:1-13).

Beersheba (Hebrew: Be'er Sheva; Arabic: 'Bir es Saba; South Africa; de Beers) is the capital of the Southern District of Israel. It is located at the northern edge of the Negev, about 89 km (55 mi) southwest of Jerusalem. Named in biblical times, Beersheba is usually interpreted as "well of the pledge," denoting a well supposedly dug there by Abraham (Gen. 21: 30). As ancient Palestine's southernmost city, it was on a major caravan route and was also an important religious sanctuary (notably for Jacob and Elijah).
 

Rub al-Khali, or Empty Quarter, the largest continuous sand body in the world, covers 647,500 sq km (250,000 sq mi). Sand ridges hundreds of kilometers long and sand dunes high enough to be called mountains (elevations: 150-305 m/500-1,000 ft) are found in this virtually uninhabited area. The Babur or Wabar crater is in the Empty Quarter of Saudi Arabia on the northern border of YEMEN (SABA). 

Meteorite craters are circular depressions in the crust of planets and satellites. They are created by the impacts of large bodies such as asteroids, comet heads, and giant meteorites. Impact cratering is the main process that has shaped the surfaces and chemistry of almost all of the solid planets and satellites of the solar system since their creation. The rate of such cratering was highest in the early years of the system, between 4.6 and 3.6 billion years ago, although impacts have continued to occur since then.

Meteors, most originating in the Oort Cloud that surrounds our solar system, bring with them the chemistry needed for new life forms to arise, such as is suggested happened in the Garden of Eden, as told in Genesis. See "SAND and DNA".

Also see THE "8" WATCHERS of the de BEERS ODDFELLOWS in K.empt.Ville, North GrenVille Township, Ontario, Canada. At the public Brahmin/Buddhist BBQ, the POP is the OPP (Ontario Provincial Police). They, the OPP, also drove the get-away car for former Canadian Prime Minister Brian Mulroney's crew in 1991. $100 billion looted from Canadians ended up in Queen BEATRICE's "BEATRIX" Dutch Royal Family bank account in Luxembourg. It will be used to fund the GRAND CANAL III (Highway, canal and energy grid) project which is central to a worldwide food cartel to be located in the western north American bread-basket to the world.

Ritual My Lai Dance
HEZBOLLAH'S EXTREMELY EMELYE MASSACRE OF LEBANON

The distinction between primitive dance and ritual dance is that the latter is conscious dance, organized volitionally in its design, purpose, and meaning. Therefore, ritual dance represents a much later societal development, a level of civilization where dance celebrates mythology rather than magic. There are a number of examples from diverse ancient civilizations that reflect this stage in the history of dance; two will be discussed--one in ancient Egypt and one in ancient Greece.

By 3000 BC, Egypt had already achieved a highly developed and complex dance culture, culminating in the yearly festivals of Abydos, where the laity and priests gathered to enact in dance the death and Isis (DNA) assisted resurrection of the toll-gater Osiris. Egyptian dance, which was then characterized by austere angularity and severe linear form, was blended on this occasion with drama and song to produce the first known example of mythological ritual as pageant, as religious mystery play, and as the earliest view of dance as both communal event and spectacle.

The rites of Dionysus in Greece evolved in the early phase of its classic civilization, roughly 1500-1000 BC. These rites, known for their ecstatic character and reminiscent of primitive dance in its abandon of self, constituted a cult festival expressing in wild dance movements the worship of the god of earth and vegetation. While the rites of Dionysus were one aspect of Hellenic society, Greek ritual dance during that period was characterized by the gentler forms of choral dance (round, chain, . and processional dance) in which graceful, flowing processions of dancing women, garlanded in flowers, moved in fluctuating circles around the altars honoring their gods. Ritual dance in Greece was a joyous expression, reflecting the Greek aesthetic emphasis on harmony and on idolization of the human body in natural rhythmic movement.

The stylization of the choral dances led, in the later period of Hellenic culture, to the Greek chorus, a formalized dance element in Greek tragic theater. It was in this early theater that Euripides and Sophocles became unwittingly the first known choreographers in history, when they designed the dances for their plays. Overall, the ritual dance of many historical civilizations--India, China, the Near East, Egypt, and the Greco-Roman empire--is an evolutionary link between the past of primitive dance and the future forms of their respective folk-dance cultures.

Humans have used drugs combined with dance in various forms since prehistoric times. It was early discovered that plant roots and mushrooms could alter mind-body functions. The pre Ice Age Cro Magnon, Somali Africans, ancient Gypsies, Sumerian Medes, Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans all extracted drugs from plants. Alcohol, opium, and derivatives of the nightshade family of plants were used as stimulants and sedatives.

PS: Please note how the Grand Orient FRENCH are most often the CHOREOGRAPHERS of Asian, African and European massacres and yet somehow also always escape unscathed just as the shit hits the fan.

When it rains frogs, blame it on the FOG of Iran's war.

ROSY ORSAY TRAP DOOR : LET THEM EAT CONDY RICE

French Hypocrisy

The Persian/Turks (KURDS) took control of Europe first under the guise of the ROMAN, and then, HOLY ROMAN EMPIRES. The prime actors in that game were Spanish/Portugese monks, French monarchs, Italian criminals, Dutch/Asian ANA money and Polish workers.

Now the French under Jacques Chirac want to reverse the past and take-over the middle-East under the guise of a multilateral force sent by the west to protect Lebanon and Israel from the Persian/Hindu HEZBOLLAH.

With the coming of the AVIAN FLU FLEW (rockets) it all sounds like "Chicken Fried Condy Rice" to me.

ALLO, Ola, HELLO !

Palamon and Arcite, story of two Theban knights, prisoners of Theseus, king of Athens; they fall in love with Emelye, sister-in-law of the king, and compete for her in a tournament; Palamon is defeated, but Arcite, though victorious, is thrown from his horse and killed; after mourning him, Palamon and Emelye are united; early version of the story found in the 'Teseide' of Boccaccio, source of Chaucer's Knight's Tale.

Check the location of the fingers next to the URN on the mantle below.

Whistler's Symphony in White, No. 2: The Little White Girl (1864) shows his borrowing from Dante Gabriel Rosetti and Armand Gautier of the image of a beautiful long-jawed girl dressed in white. Whistler gave his paintings musical identifications (symphonies, etudes, harmonies, etc.) to avoid the emphasis on storytelling then common in painting. (See phony studies about monies)

THE OWL SAYS "AMERICA? LET THEM EAT RICE"

The Exeter Book (Codex Exoniensis) is a manuscript collection of Anglo-Saxon poetry transcribed about 975 and presented to Exeter Cathedral a century later by Leofric, its first bishop. The codex, on 131 parchment leaves, contains a beautifully legible, rather unadorned rendering of some of the greatest extant poetry, including all the extant lyrics, of the Old English period (8th-11th century). The manuscript includes "Christ," "Guthlac," "The Phoenix," "Juliana," "The Wanderer," "The Seafarer," "Deor," and "The Ruin," as well as riddles, precepts, and other lesser works. The poems are characterized by their use of alliteration, their kennings, and a philosophic blend of Christian values and Germanic fatalism (FASCISM).
 

Beatrice: A woman, beloved of DANTE, who guides him through PARADISE in THE DIVINE COMEDY. Dante Alighieri, called Dante, was born in Florence, Italy, under the zodiacal sign of Gemini (May 21-June 20) in 1265 and died on Sept. 14, 1321. He wrote the poetic masterpiece La Divina Commedia, or The Divine Comedy, which helped establish his native Tuscan dialect as the literary language of Italy. Dante is not only Italy's preeminent poet but, along with Shakespeare, one of the OWL's towering figures of Western literature. This primacy is accorded him because of his profound understanding of medieval thought, his mastery of complex technical skills, and the dramatic range and originality of his imagination. Dante's life spanned the troubled years of the late Middle Ages, in which the long struggle between pope and emperor for supremacy in Italy reached its most acute phase, and in which the concept of nationalism, exemplified by the growing power of the French monarchy, was displacing the medieval vision of a united Christendom. Deeply involved in the issues and events of his day, Dante reflected in his writings the aspirations and anxieties of his contemporaries, while projecting into them a universal and timeless dimension.
 

Julian of Norwich, also called Juliana, 1342-c.1416, was a renowned English mystic whose Revelations of Divine Love contains a treatment of faith, prayer, predestination, the love of God for humanity, human sin, and other aspects of the Christian faith. The work was first written after she experienced 15 visions of Jesus Christ's suffering on May 8, 1373, one further revelation on the following day, and was then healed of a life-threatening illness. Rewritten in a longer form 20-30 years later, it is considered one of the most extraordinary recountings of a religious experience. Called Mother, or Dame Julian, she lived the latter part of her life as an anchorite at Saint Julian's Church in Norwich.
 

Queen Wilhelmina, b. Aug. 31, 1880, d. Nov. 28, 1962, reigned over the Netherlands for more than half a century. In 1890 she succeeded her father, William III, to the throne under the regency of her mother, Emma of Waldeck-Pyrmont. She assumed personal rule on Sept. 6, 1898, and married Duke Henry (1876-1934) of Mecklenburg-Schwerin in 1901. Although committed to observation of the constitution, she considered herself a ruler by divine right and frequently intervened in political affairs. After the German invasion on May 10, 1940, Wilhelmina fled to England, leading a government in exile from London and becoming very popular as a rallying point for Dutch freedom. She returned to the liberated Netherlands on Mar. 13, 1945. In declining health, she abdicated in favor of her daughter Juliana on Sept. 4, 1948, after celebrating the 50th anniversary of her reign. Her autobiography was translated as Lonely but Not Alone (1960).

Juliana: Born 1909. Queen of the Netherlands (1948-1980) succeeded to the throne of the Netherlands on Sept. 6, 1948, following the abdication of her mother, Queen Wilhelmina. She married (1937) Prince Bernhard of Lippe-Biesterfeld; they had four daughters. Juliana abdicated in favor of her eldest daughter Beatrix.

Beatrix (Beatrice): Born 1938. Queen of the Netherlands who ascended the throne in April 1980 after the abdication of her mother, Juliana. In 1961 she earned a doctorate in law at the University of Leiden. See Pilgrims to America. Her marriage (1966) to Prince Claus von Amsberg, a German diplomat, aroused some initial opposition. The eldest of their three sons, Prince Willem Alexander, is heir presumptive to the throne.

Surgery Forces Castro to Cede Power

By ANITA SNOW
Associated Press Writer

HAVANA (AP) -- An operation forced Fidel Castro to temporarily cede power to his brother for the first time in 47 years, abruptly ushering in a period of uncertainty in the communist island as the severity of his illness remained unknown.

Castro, less than two weeks away from his 80th birthday, did not appear on the live television broadcast Monday night in which his secretary read a letter from the Cuban leader. Castro's message said he underwent surgery for gastrointestinal bleeding, apparently due to stress from a heavy travel and work schedule related to recent trips to Argentina and eastern Cuba.

Castro, who took control of Cuba in 1959, resisted repeated U.S. attempts to oust him and survived communism's demise elsewhere, said he was temporarily handing over the presidency and the leadership of Cuba's Communist Party to his brother, Raul.

Raul Castro, Cuba's defense minister who turned 75 in June, also did not appear on television and made no statement on his own. For decades the constitutional successor to his brother, Raul Castro has assumed a more public profile in recent weeks.

Sitchen's Kitchener Lichen
MUSHROOM HEADS

Bioluminescence, or "living" light, is the light produced by some living organisms. Fireflies and glowworms--larval and some adult forms of certain beetles and gnatsÑare the most familiar light-emitting organisms, but other groups of organisms--bacteria, crustaceans, fish, fungi, jellyfish, mollusks, Protozoa, sponges, and worms--also have species that emit light. The only groups that do not are the mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and leafy plants.

Many light-emitting deep-sea species are also blind, in which case the light seems to have no function. Neither has any purpose been reported for the glowing of bacteria and fungi.

The most familiar of all the fungi are the mushrooms, puffballs, and shelf fungi that are commonly seen on lawns and in forests. On closer examination of pieces under the microscope, these familiar fungi can be seen to be made up of long branching strands, or filaments, of cells called hyphae, which have rigid cell walls. Groups of these cells are called mycelia, and the fungus grows as mycelium in the soil, under the bark of trees, or on other substrates. Under suitable environmental conditions, such as after warm, rainy spells, the mycelium will produce fruiting bodies such as mushrooms, puffballs, or shelf fungi. Other species of fungi remain microscopic and do not ever produce large fruiting bodies--molds, for example, which grow on bread and cheese, or yeast cells. Yeasts are single-celled fungi that reproduce by budding, although some form rudimentary hyphae. Certain species of filamentous fungi can also grow in the same manner as yeast cells, depending on environmental conditions. Most fungi will grow in the laboratory in the form of mycelia; however, some have never been cultured.

Some fungi are associated with algae; these associations are called lichens.

JULY 31 and MAY 1
The BAO DAI Celestine Prophesy : I before E except after C

ANNAM - QANA
Whatever is conceived on this day will bear fruit next May.

1- John Work Garrett, b. Baltimore, Md., July 31, 1820, d. Sept. 26, 1889, became president of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company when he led a stockholders' challenge to management in 1858. As president of the company for 26 years, he developed the railroad from a small, impoverished line to a powerful system extending from Baltimore to the Mississippi River and the Great Lakes. Garrett helped prevent abandonment of its lines to the Confederates during the Civil War. The service he provided to the North German Lloyd shipping line helped reestablish Baltimore (be ROMA alter) as a major seaport.

2- Saint Germanus, c.378-448, was a Roman advocate who ruled part of Gaul before becoming bishop of Auxerre in 418. He was the teacher of Saint Patrick. He reportedly spent his personal fortune on charitable works and made two journeys to Britain. The first journey (429) was made at the request of Pope Celestine I, who commissioned Germanus to eliminate the heresy of Pelagianism in Britain. On the second journey (447), he led British troops to victory over the Picts and Saxons. Feast day: July 31.

3- Evonne Fay Goolagong Cawley, b. July 31, 1951, is an outstanding Australian tennis player. After winning many amateur titles as a teenager, she turned professional in 1970. In 1971 she won her first major singles title, the French and Wimbledon championships, and the Associated Press Female Athlete of the Year award.

4- Médard Chouart des Groseilliers, b. France, 1618 (baptized July 31), d. 1696?, was a French fur trader and explorer and one of the founders of the Hudson's Bay Company. He is thought to have arrived in Canada in 1641. By 1646 he was part of the Jesuit mission of Huronia in what is now Simcoe County, Ontario, mostly likely as a soldier. Groseilliers's first wife, a widow whom he married in 1647, was the daughter of Abraham Martin, for whom the Plains of Abraham, a plateau overlooking the St. Lawrence River, are thought to be named. Following her death, he married a second time, thus acquiring the trader and explorer Pierre Esprit Radisson as a brother-in-law. From 1654 to 1656, Groseilliers and another fur trader traveled with the marooned Indians to the western and northern wilderness as far as Lake Michigan, bringing back furs that helped sustain the faltering colony of New France. In 1659 he made another western trip along with Radisson to Lake Superior, again bringing back a rich harvest of furs. The furs from the second trip, however, were seized by the French governor, who jailed Groseilliers (presumably because the trip had not been licensed by the Ferme's toll-gaters).

This treatment so angered the two traders that they sought help for trading and exploration from the English colonists in New England. They went to London in 1665 and won backing to pursue exploration of Hudson Bay. In 1668 the men set out from England in two vessels. Groseilliers reached the southern end of the bay, establishing Charles Fort and wintering there; Radisson, however, was forced to turn back to England. The sale in England of furs from the exploration helped bring about the formation in 1670 of the Hudson's Bay Company by English backers. Groseilliers and Radisson were employed (1670-75) by "the company". Later they worked again for France in the bay area. After becoming embroiled in conflicting claims, they were sent to France in 1683 for adjudication of the case. In 1684, Radisson returned to work for the Hudson's Bay Company, and Groseilliers returned to New France.
