Territorial Concept: Proposed Six Grandfathers (Mt. Rushmore) Lease With The U.S..

Hello All,

This concept today regarding as a possible solution to the controversy surrounding Mt. Rushmore. Stemming back to the 1868 Treaty of Fort Laramie with the Lakota Sioux Nation. It's not ideal, but allow me to set up the back story first off.

The South Dakota Black Hills Mountain range has been the ancestral lands of the Sioux Nation of American Indians. Originally "Mt. Rushmore" was known to the Lakota as "Six Grandfathers". However an advocacy group known as the "American Indian Movement" in 1971 renamed the mountain to "Mount Crazy Horse". The "Treaty of Fort Laramie of 1868" ensured the Black Hills would belong to the Sioux Nation in perpetuity. However gold prospectors crossing into the Sioux lands ignited the "Black Hills War". Which the United States stepped in and illegally confiscated the Black Hills in 1877 for themselves. Thus officially starting the land dispute that has followed the Lakota and surrounding Sioux tribes to this day.

In 1980 the "U.S. vs Sioux Nation of Indians" won a landmark case for the Sioux. Where the United States government was willing to pay the Sioux Nation $15.5 million dollars. This was the 1877 real estate market value of the Black Hills plus 5% interest amounting to a total of $105 million dollars in 1980. The Sioux Nation proudly refused the settlement offer only seeking to retain ownership of their ancestral lands. Since that time several individual tribal members have laid a claim to the settlement monies. However they're awaiting in limbo for approval of disbursement from the Court of such funds to date.

My concept allows the Sioux Nation to be awarded title deed ownership to the Black Hills Mountain region. However there is a catch which is to agree to a 100 year lease with the United State Government. Similar as to how the United States had a lease in the "Panama Canal Zone" or as it is now in "Gauntanamo Bay, Cuba". The Sioux Nation would be awarded back rent payments stemming from all the back to the year 1877. Which is when the United States government illegally seized the Black Hills from the Lakota Sioux Nation. So any of those individual tribal members laying claim to the settlement funds of 1980. Would have that settlement reclassified as back rent from this potential lease for the Black Hills.

Effectively the lease of the Black Hills if acceptable to both the Sioux Nation and the United States government. Can be set for 234 years time of which 134 years have already been served in the lease of the land. Where a remaining 100 years time is in effect as long as the United States keeps up in good standing its lease payments. The lease payments set at whatever base amount would increase at 5% every 10 years time or during the U.S. Census period. I chose 5% interest lease increase since it falls in line with the 5% interest increase from the 1980 settlement. That was originally refused by the Sioux Nation overall.

If the lease for the Back Hills is agreed to than the back lease payments and future lease payments. Would be deposited into a trust fund administered by the Sioux Nation Elders. Where the monies would be utilized for the betterment of all Sioux people and the tribal lands as a whole. Meaning it can be dispersed as a stipend payment to all Sioux. Including improvements to Sioux education, infrastructure of the tribal lands, tribal lands 1st responders IE police and fire rescue, cultural upliftment, commerce, and tourism.

The United States government would have 1st option to renew the lease of the Black Hills. At the conclusion of the remaining 100 year lease period. Otherwise full use of the Black Hills would revert to the Sioux Nation and its heirs. To use as they see fit in whatever manner that best suits their purposes.

(Note: I used Wikipedia for any pertinent historical accounts.)

Jewels of Truth Statements & Favorite Quotes of The Month

Hello All,

Besides the development of Volume 2 of the "Jewels of Truth" continuing at my publisher iUniverse. I've returned from a twelve day family visit slash vacation in Miami last week. This is where I'm catching up to my routine which includes posting to this blog site.

Today's entry of the "Jewels of Truth" series deals with the topics of: Living, Art, and Invisible Links that connect us to others. These original spiritual wisdom statements were written back in late April and early May of the year 2009. Now only appearing more than 2 years time later here at "Atrayo's Oracle" for the very first time.

Without a further adieu here they are for your enjoyment.

-----------------------------------------

948) Live well, by living well is the greatest truth in seeking contentment. Whereby we focus on the positive to illuminate the way to a fuller lifestyle. A lifestyle that is not overburdened by our limitations. That fashions our personal inadequacies into ropes that bind us into a stronger form than weakening our resolve to "Live Well". By living well I do not only mean materially speaking, but holistically. Finding expression of our mental and emotional being having a healthy outlook on life as we know it. As the experiences of life toss us about we can remain in our truth that we can overcome such obstacles. Not alone, for if we are wise we will align ourselves with souls that will support us by their own compassion and truth.

Living well is a privilege, and not a right. It is our responsibility to maintain a mindset and a character that is robust enough to be in harmony with our own individual circumstances. If we falter than we succumb to suffering leading the way by hardships that may become countless. Strengthen your character and most of all your faith in God to carry you to a better place by being well prepared for life itself. Otherwise you will always cheat yourself of the destiny and blessedness of the glory of God(dess) all around you constantly. Amen.
---Ivan Pozo-Illas / Atrayo.


949) Art as a medium has Infinite sources of Inspirations. This is what makes art a creative force of delight and expression for some. Others yet still use art to give expression to the suffering of the world facing injustice. Art is the bridge between the unspoken and the articulated. Art is not just for the elite within a particular society, it is for the masses. As a space to offer the people as a whole a place of enrichment and growth. A growth that is both thought provoking and at times if needed controversial. Forcing the cultural norms to evolve for the highest self to shine with dignity, and not vanity alone. Art is the mainstay of any civilization worth its weight in the souls that find expression through the sacred act of creation. ---Ivan Pozo-Illas / Atrayo.


950) There are numerous invisible links that bind us to other people. Be it by circumstance or affinity of intent these invisible links can be supportive for a person leading to empowerment. If meant for one person alone or for the many at large by the consequences of actions yet to be fully resolved. All leaders no matter their stature in a society will need invisible links in becoming catalysts for change. However not all invisible links are supportive in nature. Many yield destructive effects if not immediately than down the road to an uncertain future. Out of the ashes of such a misfortune the ones to follow can rise once again to bring order out of chaos. It is not the invisible links or the ties that bind us together that make them good or bad. It is how the ones with the power to recognize and wield them that shall be the determiner of the integrity of their actions. Those that lead through ulterior selfish motivations will eventually be caught in the full display of the rising sun. Where the masses will declare "No More" we are not your slaves! Thus breaking their chains in order to live with liberty versus obligated indebtedness. Those whom lead with conviction no matter if disagreement follows them shall be honored. For their hearts are just and not filled with a lust in authoritative power can bring alone. ---Ivan Pozo-Illas / Atrayo.

---------------------------------------

Peace is not an event, its a process. ---Leymah Gbowee. Liberian Peace Activist. On PBS "Tavis Smiley" show on 10/17/11.

God always provides what we need, but we must be ready to open our eyes and see it. ---The Midrash.

Success isn't how far you got, but the distance you traveled from where you started. ---Unknown Proverb.

Do not let what you can not do interfere with what you can do. ---John Wooden.

Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing. ---Muhammad Ali.

"Jewels of Truth, God Is Reality!"

Hello All,

Just a heads up I'm a bit busier than usual because Volume 2 of the "Jewels of Truth" series is being developed at my publisher iUniverse. So I may not be posting to this blog site perhaps towards the end of October.

So I'll offer up this morsel that was written earlier today where the ink is still drying on the page. It's on the topic of God(dess) being our reality unto all that was, is, and will be. Do take note that towards the end of this spiritual wisdom statement I make a controversial utterance. To say the least its thought provoking to others yet still I'm speaking heresy. Fortunately I live in a pluralistic society here in America.

To add clarity as to my spiritual writings is that I'm an Intuitive with a clair- cognizant ability. Amongst a couple other psychic traits of being an empath with premonitions. As always I have stated my writings are inspired by Automatic Writing. I consider this a writing technique that moves me by inspiration. Others yet still describe automatic writing to be a psychic quality of taking dictation from one's Spirit Guides and Teachers. Either definition for me works depending on the audience I am with at the time. Be they secular, spiritual, or religious in nature when they ask what my faith is it throws them for a loop.

I consider myself to be Multi-Faith, which I define as including all benevolent faith traditions. Be they religious or philosophical that promote goodwill in moderation. Since I believe God or Goddess in the feminine form is prevalent everywhere in reality. Not pigeon holed to one region of this primitive world be it in antiquity or in our contemporary days.

So without a further adieu here is spiritual wisdom "Jewels of Truth" series statement #1193.

-----------------------------------------------

"God Is Reality!"

1193) God is beyond thought for he is reality itself. A living energy or force that permeates all as his own creation. Not to be mindless without purpose or conviction, but to recall his own reason for being. A majesty with no equal, alone and with all the company of his own creations across "Eternity and Infinity". A basis in spiritual truth alive and in constant renewal.

All of this occurring in a space that occupies nothing. In a moment that is ageless for it all occurred in one singular instant. The proverbial blink of the eye, a moment between moments is where God is most intimate with all of physical creation. The backdrop is also the forefront of who's Image and likeness we resemble the most. As miniature children of the "God of all gods". We are not without worth for we all have the speck of God in our souls. Our spirits are illuminated with this spark that is most Divine and also makes us Angelic. We are Angels in a slumber of forgotten knowledge. Minor gods living a paradox existence in order to grow, love unconditionally, and return to our source God(dess). Amen. ---Ivan Pozo-Illas / Atrayo.

Humanitarian Governmental Concept: "Industrial Effects Catastrophe Fund"

Hello All,

This concept is more of a bailout hazard fund for the ordinary citizen subjected to industrial pollutants on a discriminatory basis. By discrimination it can be either direct Environmental Racism, which large swaths of urban Afro-American populations have systematically been subjected to within America for decades. Or any American of whatever creed or social mobility having the misfortune of having lived near an industrial facility with poor quality control standards. At least in terms of leeching toxic environmental pollutants into nearby residential districts and local water sheds.

Here in Florida my home State we have a "Hurricane Catastrophe Fund" known as the "Hurricane Cat Fund". Taking this as a governmental funding mechanism in such a State wide trust fund held and maintained for the public trust of all Floridians. I'm proposing a similar mechanism across all of America on a Federal level in partnerships with the States and Territories. Be it operated by Federal / State agencies of Environmental Protection in conjunction with Federal Law Enforcement agencies. Be it the FBI or expand the mission mandates of environmental law enforcement agents that guard our National and State parks. Yes, I'm first to admit that such environmental law enforcement agencies be it Federal or State levels are treated as the third wheel in resources. Be it in personnel numbers or funding on a whole basis. Here in Florida we have only a couple hundred law enforcement agents covering thousands of miles of our peninsula wilderness. I'm not advocating pulling out such limited resources already in place for our natural wonders. Just to create a new law enforcement department within the overall investigative arm of such an environmental protection agency.

The "Industrial Effects Catastrophe Fund" will be funded by both private industry and joint Federal / State dollars. In order to safeguard residential areas from nearby polluting industrial facilities. Be they harming the air, land, and especially water quality of those neighborhoods. Industry Lobbyists will be forbidden from participating on any oversight committees or panels of such a catastrophe fund. In order to keep the wolves out of the hen house for a period of a decade. So any present day industry lobbyist of whatever stripe can not nor should not have authority for a period of 10 years time. In regards to oversight jurisdiction since it becomes a "Poison Pill" all its own if they mettle in such affairs. The burden of proof will be shifted onto private Industry and not on the ordinary citizen in terms of exposure to toxic pollutants. Such a policy written into law should keep such a legal Juris prudence in perspective at all times.

Citizens petitioning for aid from such a catastrophe fund will receive access to both a case manager and legal counsel. Such staff provided will be funded on an administrative basis out of such a catastrophe fund. Environmental law enforcement agents will only receive a portion of their overall funding for their department handling such a case load. In terms of investigative faculties and subpoena powers in getting access to records be it the Federal or State level Attorney Generals. Any private legal counsel hired by citizens petitioning for aid from the "Industrial Effects Catastrophe Fund". Will have their legal fees capped at a certain reasonable rate. Any bureaucracy created will not forbid the ordinary citizen from receiving aid in terms to a petitioning application process. Which means legal hardship loop holes will not become a barrier due to political mind games by the administrators of such a catastrophe fund.

Any neighborhoods or limited residential areas that must be condemned due to environmental industrial toxic degradations. Will need to go through Federal, State, and local eminent public domain ordinances. Where the citizenry affected will either be relocated at cost by the offending corporation or by the catastrophe fund. Or just directly buying out their residences at pre-disaster real estate market prices.

The environmental law enforcement agency department overseeing protection of the public trust. Will pursue any corrupt appointed or elected governmental officer on any level be it local, State, or Federal. If corporate kickback schemes of bribery or unfair best practices in attracting bids of an industrial facility to a region. Be they for decades past to the present are discovered by environmental law enforcement. Than the "20 / 20 Rule" will apply for any living or deceased estate of a present to former governmental officer. The "20 / 20 Rule" means that for 20 years time at 20% the estate of a corrupt appointed or elected official will be garnished. Any monies / assets collected will go directly into the "Industrial Effects Catastrophe Fund" as a punishment for the severity of the crime committed upon the local citizenry. If undo hardship is created that isn't frivolous in nature to the estate of the surviving heirs of such a corrupt governmental official. Than a waiver can be submitted due to financial hardships invoked in adhering to the "20 / 20 Rule". The waiver can either completely forgive the financial penalty or enforce it on a sliding scale basis.

Similarly any offending corporation per facility found to have bribed any local, State, or Federal governmental official or entity. Will be subject to the "20 / 20 Rule" as well. Be it paid as a lump sum, installments, at a higher tax rate, or having any remaining sweet heart deals completely revoked. Of course any combination of the above could occur if the offense committed is so gross in maleficence.

The Industrial Effects Catastrophe Fund is a social safety net similar to coal miners or railroad workers. However here it is directed to safeguard the public from the bad actors of private polluting industry. In covering their short / long term healthcare costs, stipends if disabled due to toxic exposure, or any heirs that have become developmentally retarded due to toxic pollutants exposure. Whether the exposure is be means of air quality, proximity by land, or water pollutants in bathing, washing, and cooking sources.

In the future God forbid any industrial nuclear facility accidents occurs that exposes the general populace to lethal radiation exposure. Such an "Industrial Effects Catastrophe Fund" will have been put in place for such a national calamity. Consider this "Cat Fund" to be an expansion of any FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) duties on the Federal level. Similarly the recent "BP Gulf Oil Spill" would have fallen under the auspices if such an "Industrial Effects Catastrophe Fund" would have been in place already.

This is the vision I foresee that is much needed for our country. On the basis of a yesterday that was never brought forth by a lack of American leadership. We are long overdue for such a national policy of justice in terms of industrial bad actors polluting our homes and especially our lives. If the government won't protect us, than who can?

Jewels of Truth Statements & Favorite Quotes of The Month

Hello All,

Welcome to another entry of the "Jewels of Truth" series of all original spiritual wisdom statements. This trio of statements were first written back in mid April 2009 and are only now seeing the light of day for the first time. Sorta like a fine wine having reached a sufficient vintage by being ready for consumption. The topics of this month's "Jewels of Truth" are on: Guilt, Possibility, and Opportunity.

Please enjoy them as I did by writing them with inspiration.

------------------------------------

945) Those who are generous by nature that are trying to hide something in themselves be wary of guilt itself. Person's who are just and give of themselves and their treasure are the most blessed. Where those that give out of remorse from a past bad experience are burying themselves through giving. The intent in giving here is not selfless nor genuine in so much out of compassion for others. "Guilty Givers" are ones who are full of shame seeking to give in order to gain self-respect. Self respect through giving is lop sided when it comes from a place of shame and unease in one's mind and heart. The more such a person gives the more they become consumed in emotional pain. This is where forgiveness, compassion, and surrendering one's pain from a past bad experience because of lack must be released wholesale. Otherwise a "Guilty Giver" will drown the more they give out of shame and not compassion for others.

Give when it is warranted, and when the giving is good in nature by its intent. Be full of thanksgiving when one gives through joy and compassion. Not when one is miserable by shame or guilt. Be gentle with persons who are "Guilty Givers" and do not exploit their personal vulnerability for your own gain. Surrender your guilt when it is tied to your own generosity with an unconditional forgiveness and love for yourself. These are the healing agents of the heart and mind when darkness hides in your shadow. Amen. ---Ivan Pozo-Illas / Atrayo.


946) God makes the Impossible possible once more within all of the sheer magnitude of creation. Such a power is a mystery to all mortals. However such a system or filtering the impossible to become possible surrounds us everyday through the grace of God(dess). We even have names for this such as the Divine, Miraculous, God Send, Great Mystery, and so forth. Trust your faith when a powerful thrust of divinity is revealed to one or the many. Be they stranger, friend, or enemy alike in this life. The "Will of God" has no equals by the majesty of such a wonder in benevolence. Be still and surrender your knowledge for the increase of wisdom. Grow the understanding of the "Lord God" through your relationship with him. Be open to the blessed from the mundane in everyday experiences and into the impossible. Only through perception and our experiences can we know in a God that is in our midst by his "Holy Spirit". All else is just noise without a deeper meaning of the Divine. Amen. ---Ivan Pozo-Illas / Atrayo.


947) Where one door closes in an unwelcome predicament. Seven doors of various sizes of opportunity will reveal themselves to you. Only if you keep an open mind and heart by not being dissuaded from the one door that was closed upon you. Child of God, if you allow grief to over take you in your pain. You shall become blind to any opportunity to come your way by grace. You will be lost to yourself, lost to your loved ones, and will convert your pain into immense suffering. Surrender the rejection of that one door closing upon you. Allow grace by means of forgiveness to settle upon your heart and mind. Give yourself permission to move onward with confidence. Enter into wellness and enter into a space of wonder and delight of what the future can bring. Seek those seven doors of opportunity of various sizes. Find the one you can pass through without becoming stuck in its archway. That will be the one to set you free in your journey for a little while longer. Amen. ---Ivan Pozo-Illas / Atrayo.

------------------------------------------

We must be willing to get rid of the life we've planned, so as to have the life that is waiting for us. ---Joseph Campbell.

The only chance you get is the one you take! ---"Redemption Road" the movie.

Nobody in the world can prove to be your ideal unless you make yourself one. ---Hazrat Inayat Khan. "Gayan"

Love is the first ingredient in the relief of suffering. ---Padre Pio.

Holiness comes wrapped in the ordinary. There are burning bushes all around you. Every tree is full of Angels. Hidden beauty is waiting in every crumb. ---Macrina Wiederkehr, O.S.B. "A Tree Full of Angels".

Recycling Concept: Accordion Collapsible Plastic Bottles


Hello All,

Today's entry is an innovative solution to one of our many everyday products is upon the recycling of plastic bottles. Particularly Water Bottles although other cylindrical shaped plastic bottles would work for this concept.

My favorite brand of mineral water is "Zephyrhills" which is owned by the "Nestle" corporation which is a Swiss conglomerate. Many plastic water bottles of today are ribbed in contour although needing a good foot stomp for crushing. Much like plastic milk jugs need a solid foot stomp when placing them in a recycle bin. My county of Sarasota Florida still utilizes recycling bins. And not the more modern roll away containers on two back wheels like in Miami-Dade county. Which offers substantially more recycling space in such a recycling program by residential users.



What I'm getting at is an ease of function of plastic bottles to be shaped like an Accordion. That the spacing of the ribs in the bottle design is very compact. Allowing one not to foot stomp, but to easily hand crush a plastic bottle for recycling purposes. Picture a collapsible campers cup that can easily be opened and then after its use be closed again. Similar to the opening and closing of a musical accordion instrument but in this case, it's a one-way collapsible movement.

So after a person enjoys their beverage in a plastic bottle with water or name your favorite drink liquid. They twist the top of the bottle slightly allowing it to snap into alignment with the accordion shaped ribbing. Then in one forceful thrusting motion collapse the plastic bottle where it is crushed completely. Hearing a delightful crushing sound knowing that the deed has been done satisfactorily. Then the person just tosses the now compact plastic bottle into a recycling bin. Where a recycling container be it in a public or private space has yielded a greater capacity. In a public space, recycling container means fewer janitorial runs. To make sure there's no need to tend to the recycling container as quickly as before people tossing in non-compacted plastic recyclable wares.

Still, this will require a willingness for people to hand crush plastic bottles or other containers in recycling. Where empty space in an uncrushed plastic container can be portrayed as a nuisance. In public "Ad Council" type of outreach media campaigns. This one simple step by the general public will foster maximum utilization efforts in recycling. At least in terms of the public enjoying the process of crushing their plastic wares for recycling. Much like certain individuals enjoy popping the plastic wrap bubbles in shipping packing materials. The psychology is the same where plastic bottles to start off in a collapsible accordion shaped design. Will promote additional crushing of individual use plastic material that is suitable for recycling purposes. This is but an additional step of sophistication for consumers in managing their behavior for a positive environmental outcome.

Games Industry Concept: Mega Multiplayer Games

Hello All,

What I'm proposing with "Mega Multiplayer Games" or MMG as an acronym is a scaled down version of a full blown "Massively Multiplayer Online Game" or a MMOG. Where MMO's or MMOG's consist of thousands of players per server shard if not tens of thousands together in one super shared game world. An MMG takes a single player game and regular multiplayer game mode and makes a glorified game mode together. Not to the scale of a MMO, but extending the shelf life of many single player RPG or FPS games to come.

Current multiplayer games be they FPS mostly have been stuck at either 32 to 64 players per game server as an artificial limit. Not due to technological hurdles, but economic ones of not willing to invest resources to push the regular multiplayer ceiling. The "Mega Multiplayer Game" pushes that ceiling where a standard single player game gets a backdrop conversion.

Take for instance the Bioware games franchise of "Mass Effect" as an example. Mass Effect games 1 and 2 play differently from each other as will "Mass Effect 3". Its logical since its an evolution in game play mechanics and game design to see what works and what doesn't. What if under a MMG game treatment a gamer can play "Mass Effect 1-3" with the current flavor of how "Mass Effect 3" will be presented. For example as each single player game iteration is introduced previous single player game titles under the same IP (Intellectual property) entertainment brand. Will be stitched together like a daisy chain keeping all the game encounters in "Mass Effect 1 & 2" intact. But be presented with the User Interface and game mechanics of "Mass Effect 3". Akin to when the game developer "Blizzard" redid "World of Warcraft" through the MMO game expansion of "Cataclysm". The entire MMO landscape of that one game was given a facelift.

A "Mega Multiplayer Game" offers continuity of past single player games to be assembled by a skeletal framework. Where the most recent game version gives all past game title versions a facelift in game play. So where a MMO allows thousands of players together in a game world. An MMG allows hundreds of players together to experience their favorite single player games together. Picture playing an MMG version of "Mass Effect 1-3" just with your clan or guild mates all being able to explore the galaxy on the Normandy. Where each player has their own version and custom look of "John Shepard". If not allowed to play other prominent roles of "Garrus" the Tunarian and so forth. Or allowing players to jump randomly into Npc's (Non Player Characters) of whatever race and play them out according to the game's story arc for that npc.

There can be other versions of "Mega Multiplayer Games" than just the one example I provided above. Where the latest single player game dictates the game mechanics in user interface that all games in their line up are played. There can be via the MMG skeletal frame work conversion allowing each game to be played as it was designed. So continuing with the "Mass Effect" example "Mass Effect 1-3" are played as each one is presented in game design. However they are all still glued together to form a continuous game world. Still that would mean a dizzying manner in how the game is played by user interface differences between each game title version.

Game rental service vendors can offer gamer consumers servers that are tailored towards a "Mega Multiplayer Game" environment. Just like how they are tailored towards the FPS game match server business model today. Game Publishers can offer present and future game entertainment IP's with a MMG game mode. Right alongside the vanilla single player or traditional multiplayer game modes. So instead of a game publisher investing into a full blown "Massively Multiplayer Online" game project. They can go the "Mega Multiplayer Game" route instead where gamers not needing to subscribe in a "pay to play" monthly MMO business model. Do something closer to a "Guild Wars" business model where the consumer just buys the game itself and no monthly subscription fees on the back end. The game publisher can offer a selection of its own servers so MMG games can be played. Just like they currently do with FPS game titles. It'll be the game server rental vendors by interested consumers to allot additional server rack space on how popular a game entertainment IP may be.

This is but a choice to another way how we all enjoy our games. No way I'm I spelling out all the intricate obstacles that may be encountered like any game title project in development. It is still a novel and different game mode model for our games to be played and enjoyed together.

Jewels of Truth Statements & Favorite Quotes of The Month

Hello All,

It's that time of the month with another trio of "Jewels of Truth" statements to share with all of you. This month's topics are on History, the Mundane, and Desires. Of course finishing it all off with some select quotations from other famous people.

Enjoy.

------------------------------

942) History is alive! History are the factual stories, recorded events, and memories of a peoples recollection through circumstance. It is their lives remembered for an instant longer than their span of life permitted. Some of the richest history becomes life long lessons of triumph and tragedy. True that certain periods of history can become embellished over time to fit one ideological stance. However each subsequent period of humanity will garner the eventual truth and fit the remembrance in contrast to their present period. History remembered always runs in parallel with a people and a society. This is a common reality for those who are wise and earnest enough to discern for themselves what is real and what is mere fabrication. History is life and death recorded for our benefit. If we are but humble enough to receive it with open minds we shall continue to become wise by grace. Otherwise if we reject history as a guiding light we become fools wanting to be punished again just like our ancestors. What is worse being innocent through ignorance of ones history and repeating it? Or being completely arrogant by knowing ones history and making the same mistake as your fore bearers? ---Ivan Pozo-Illas / Atrayo.


943) From the point of view of the majestic Heavenly realms the mundane experiences are wondrous. Due to the fact paradoxically the dynamic and marvelous reality that Heaven engenders on a total basis of the miraculous. From a mortal human point of view it is the extraordinary to be chased after at all costs. The opposite is also true in the Heavenly paradise where uncommon experiences are that of the mundane ordinary activities amongst the living. Often we forget as humanity that we all are united in a common struggle to improve our lives. Where in a spiritual sense we truly are one Spirit under God. Our mundane lives are interwoven constantly with the Divine which imbues the miraculous. It can be stated with confidence that God(dess) and the Heavenly host occupy the realms of the mundane. In equal proportion to the majestic extraordinary realms of Absolute Love.

Observe a newborn child of any species and how they gaze with total awe and splendor to their surroundings. That is but an inkling in scale as to how the wonder and absolute love of God(dess) see's us all in totality. No matter what form of activity be it in mundane or extraordinary circumstances we may find ourselves within. Treasure your moments of life be they boring with complete normalcy and those few spikes in life where we feel closest to the Divine. Both are Holy and sacred in an unconditional love and wonder to be had and fully cherished. Amen. ---Ivan Pozo-Illas / Atrayo.


944) Desires are not just from the heart. Desires also encompass the mind and soul as well. Desires can be altruistic or selfish, they can also be benign in nature. Desires from the heart are usually selfless, but they can also be conditional in nature. Demanding more in an outcome than what is truly necessary. Desires from the mind are elaborate and far reaching in scope, whether intended for good or ill. Desires from the soul are the one's that last the longest. For the desires of the soul are the purest in all of creation. Where they stem from the gentle "Mind and Heart of God(dess)" within us. Desires that are unconditional in nature are always attributed to the Soul. Our "Free Will" is the deciding factor of the intent of a desire. Be it for goodness sake or for a devilish despicable outcome. Amen. ---Ivan Pozo-Illas / Atrayo.

------------------------------------

A humble life dedicated to a great purpose, becomes great. ---Paul Brunton. "Perspectives"

As the Sun shines upon my heart, so may my heart shine upon others. ---Upanishads.

You will never be commonplace if you are vigilant in Love. ---BI. Elizabeth of the Trinity.

Success is not to be pursued; it is to be attracted by the person we become. ---Jim Rohn.

Never worry about numbers. Help one person at a time, and always start with the person nearest you. ---Mother Teresa.

Navigational Technology Concept: "Portable Laser Mapper"

Hello All,

This concept at the onset can be utilized by caverneers be they on foot or as underwater divers within a submerged cavern. If not used by scuba divers to explore an elaborate shipwreck where an interior swim may be desired or needed. Of course this device could also be utilized by first responders. To locate victims that have been buried by falling debris such as earthquake victims. Or fire fighters to gain a floor by floor layout in a high rise building when any visual aid is nearly impossible.

For the last 70 or so years the only way cavern explorers have had a means of avoiding to get lost in a cavern system. Is by chalk, by writing markers on cave walls or other underground land marks. Strings of rope akin to a tag line mostly used by underwater cavern divers. And most recently in the last 20 plus years glow sticks which are snapped and thrown down to light a path.

My portable electronic navigational concept will hopefully be an inspiration for a plethora of similar devices yet to be devised. Be they in underground environments (Caverns, bunkers, labyrinth, Catacombs, Mazes), underwater (Caverns or Shipwrecks), debris piles from a natural disaster (earthquake, tornado, hurricane, etc...), or a multi-story building for an interior layout.

The example I'll focus on below will be that of a caverneer gaining foot access to an underground cavernous lair. Where at the entrance access point the caverneer lays the portable laser mapper electronic device on the ground or on a tripod stand. So as to commence its scanning protocol where at its front end are two circular lens sockets. The socket on the right end is the emitting red laser diode with 4 beams. The left end socket is a receiver blue lens diode to act as a completion for the mapping scan. Where the returning red laser emitter confirms its scan with the blue laser diode receptor like an electronic handshake.

At the inception of a scan the 4 beams of the red laser diode lens emitter will each scan in a up, down, left, right pathways. If an obstruction is encountered during any point of the scan. The portable laser mapper will recalculate much like a (GPS device) and redirect the red laser to a 90 degree bend. Be it in the 4 aforementioned pathways of: up, down, left, or right directions all are 90 degree angles. If a 90 degree angle fails than a greater swath of 180 degrees is recalculated into the scan. If the red laser diode emitter beams meets a wall after a complete 360 degree calculation is reached. It will back track and look for a side passageway to continue its scanning protocol.

During the scan all 4 beams will be scanning for floor to sheer chasm drops. Ceiling elevation or direct passage way width and if a constricted pathway is encountered where a person may not pass. It will mark the scan with an appropriate icon marker in the completed scan data points. Where the user can sift through the complete scan through the device flip top key board and top screen. During the scan the device can recognize "Points of No Return" set to ignore nearly straight pathway scans of more than 1, 3, or 10 kilometers. Where the red laser diode beam will recalculate and redirect its scans elsewhere during the mapping process. If the beam does happen upon a mineral with a bluish tint or that of a sapphire like gem in its scanning protocol. In order to avoid a false positive completion of its initial scan. It will demand the electronic handshake from the blue laser diode receptor lens. If it does not receive the right input or reception commands it will disregard the connection made and continue scanning.

If the "Portable Laser Mapper" is being utilized in a hand held capacity by an underwater cavern diver. The bluish reflection of the water will be disregarded as mentioned just above until the proper reception commands are confirmed. Also the refractive qualities of water will be utilized by the mapper as a means to amplify or boost the signal range of any scans.

Subsequent generations of any developed "Portable Laser Mappers" will have sensor packages built into the device. Such as to gauge temperature, noxious gases, radiation, chemical, mineral or gem deposits during a scan. So the user can avoid any hazards or utilize additional read out markers in planning out their route. The "Portable Laser Mapper" can include an emergency transponder beacon in case of a dire event occurs. Where the user pushes a panic button on the device that can be located on the flip top key pad / key board. When an emergency signal is initiated and if not canceled by a premature declaration. The "Portable Laser mapper" will seek out using its previous scan that the user is utilizing during their route. To find a surface access point where it can commence broadcasting like a satellite phone call to any nearby first responders. During the emergency signal protocol the device user if they haven't been separated from the device. Can check to see if a surface access point has been located and the broadcast signal stage has been reached. Perhaps a screen flash or tone alert from the device can be set to notify the user of its progress during an emergency signal protocol.

Any first responders with a proper "Portable Laser Mapper" of their own set to receiving emergency signal alerts. Will receive akin to a download the route scans of the distressed users device. Including any other pertinent information that the first responder may need in order to locate and rescue the distressed user. Perhaps even initiate a "person to person" voice conversation in order to gauge the nature of the emergency, much like a 911 telephone operator.

Aside from emergencies the device user will have a positional awareness when they are traveling the route of any completed scan. Much like a GPS device knows its position in relation to the tracking satellite. The "Portable Laser Mapper" will know where it is in relation to its completed scan. The user traveling the route can track his or her own progress. During the journey by zooming in or out on the scanned route using the top screen of the device. The device user can also broadcast his completed scan to any nearby users with either another portable laser mapper, smartphone, computer (laptop, tablet), etc... Of course such a feature can be turned off manually if the device user so desires it.

Hopefully depending on the scope of the area being scanned it can take anywhere from a few minutes up to an hour. Depending on how powerful or accurate the model of the device proves to be. However even if a scan is not complete but has only scanned 25% to a third of an area. The user can commence their journey along the route not needing to wait for a total completed scan. Eventually a secondary market of resold area map scans may appear for other users to purchase. Where a purchased map is downloaded via a USB flash media slot or some other internet connectivity. If a pre-purchased map is utilized a side by side scan can still be commenced. To prove how worthy your initial map purchase proves to be originally. And, to make any potential alterations in new changes to the map scan if it proves to be outdated depending on the access point used.

My sincere wishes is that this concept or anything like it to come out of other innovators. Proves a success for extreme sport enthusiasts, if not especially for First Responders in order to save human lives in life threatening circumstances.

Movie Concept: "The Thief of Heaven"

Hello All,

From time to time I've been known to blog about a movie concept that I would be delighted to see in theaters. Which I'm sure would have wide audience appeal to consumers if these ever saw the light of day. Past examples of movie concepts on this blog site is within the musical genre of a hip hop "Christmas Carol" set in Detroit, Michigan. In science fiction "The Garden of Eden Discovered" on Earth and "The Book of Enoch" where our Judeo-Christian theology is set upon a political action adventure drama of an alien extraterrestrial race that conquered the Earth in our pre-history. Or if comedy is your thing a non-animated remake of "Beavis & Butthead". With live action comedians in a complete misadventure that is its own hilarious farce.

Today's movie concept I'll title as "The Thief of Heaven". Where a cunning thief who thinks he is world renowned for his craft. Becomes both the victim and the hero when he steals an ancient long forgotten blessed holy artifact. From an archeological dig site set upon an unknown to humanity as of yet grand civilization on the verge of discovery. Just as grand as Ancient Egypt or the Minoan civilization in Ancient Crete.

Where the classic scoundrel thief makes his way through an underground maze unto a hidden temple. This is a thief of plunder and no archeology professor of "Indiana Jones", nor of "Lara Croft" adventurer of the Tomb Raider series. This would be part "Han Solo", part smuggler and thief, and lastly part fool.

As the cunning thief weaves his way through the archeological underground lair. He happens upon this hidden temple filled with symbolism and arcane writing along the walls and archways. He could never hope to decipher, but only make a best guess in his crudest form.

As he happens upon this ancient artifact he says to himself he has found the treasure that will put an end to his thieving ways. Because the jewel encrusted artifact is so marvelous he will surely be paid a kings ransom by an unscrupulous collector of antiquity. Little does he know that this holy artifact of a bygone human civilization is the equivalent of the "Holy Grail" to Christians. When he takes direct physical possession of the relic it begins to hum with an eerie radiance of both sound and sight. Just for a second or two which startles the thief which he quickly dismisses since it was so brief to barely notice.

As the thief returns to his contacts in the black market. He begins to encounter something he has never begun to experience before in life. A sense of awe and bewilderment that anyone he offers to sell this treasure refuses him. Akin to if all they see is junk, but yet they acknowledge in reality the lustrous precious metals and jewels of such a relic. Months pass on as events begin to transpire that continue to confuse the thief. As to why no one will purchase directly or indirectly this ill gotten antiquity. Where it is so hot or radioactive no one dares to even consider purchasing it akin to committing a crime onto itself.

The thief at this point is completely going bonkers and going out of his wits with frustration and anger. That such an antiquity that would deliver him unto untold worldly riches and yet no one is interested in purchasing. What the thief fails to surmise is that this ancient holy artifact is Enchanted.

As soon as the thief comes to terms of such a possibility he immediately deems it a cursed object. However all around him he is treated well by a myriad of coincidences that he can barely fathom. Which startles him even further into attempting to just throw away the artifact to no avail. Since the holy relic has become attuned to his very essence the moment he first grabbed it in the hidden temple.

Since the now hapless thief can not sell or lose such a holy and forgotten relic. He attempts to return it back to the archeological underground site to no success at all. Because obstruction and obstacle after another seem to battle him at every turn. As if this holy relic does not want to be returned with a mind of its own. As the story unfolds the thief himself becomes transformed as a person. An odyssey occurs as he attempts to find alternative means to take this holy relic to other holy shrines across the globe. Both known and especially unknown speaking to countless psychics, sages, and holy anointed souls. All intrigued and yet bemused at his plight. As the years turn into decades this once cunning thief realizes what he truly stole was not a holy relic. But his life, that in seeking a king's ransom he did find. Not of this world, but of the Heaven's where he is now the protector and guardian. Of this miraculous holy relic of a forgotten ancient human civilization.

During the course of the movie those bizarre coincidences that occur to the thief. Are blessings and miracles occurring all around him to all whom come into his proximity. As the years and decades unfold he learns more of this ancient civilization from the archeologists that discovered them. Including from the artifact itself akin to a form of telepathic bonding with flashes of impressions.

This movie is part inspirational and also a cautionary tale to becareful of what one truly seeks. Since in the end it may make its appearance totally different from what you originally surmised it would be in reality.

I hope you enjoyed reading this movie concept and perhaps one day a producer will take kindly to its possibility for moviegoers.

939) All the Wonders before us are the many smiling faces of God himself laying before his children as a living testament. We must humble ourselves by such a grace by entering into this holy place filled with awe and joy in our hearts and minds. By letting the wonder of God(dess) to shine upon us in totality. We allow ourselves a moment of liberation so we can soar past our daily turmoils. Into a magical place where the Angels themselves dwell constantly being in such a sacred and holy environment we can barely Imagine.

Be still in the presence of a blessed Wonder since you are also in the presence of God himself. In all his exalted glory and majesty dressed in a kaleidoscope of the colors of life eternal. The rays of the lord God shine brightest within the spirits of the children of God. No other comparison is possible to showcase the multitude of graces. We can enter into by a union of unconditional Love with our creator. Amen. ---Ivan Pozo-Illas / Atrayo.

Gems of Opportunity: Wind Power Industry: Bladeless Wind Turbine Modeled After The "Dyson Air Multiplier" Fan



Hello All,





How many of you have benefited from a "Dyson" product?

I have yet to own any since they're too pricey for my budget. Nonetheless the spokesperson "Mr. James Dyson" has showcased many of his products in the past such as the "Dyson Air Multiplier". Which are those very sleek bladeless fans with a pivoting circular head.

Here's a link down below to their assortment of fans:

http://www.dyson.com/store/fans.asp



Now I'm in no way affiliated to the company "Dyson" and the wind power industry. This concept I'm about to offer below is entirely of my own creation. In so much there doesn't exist to my knowledge any sort of bladeless wind turbines modeled after the "Dyson Air Multiplier" fans.

We all have seen whether in person or through the mass media those towering wind turbines generating electricity. In the United States, they're more common in the western States in rural plains. They can be an eye sore, especially if many are clustered together like a wind farm. In Europe, some are situated nearby residential homes such as in Great Britain. Albeit these homes are in rural village regions and not near urban settings. Such residents are complaining about a Shadow Flicker coming in through their home windows. Besides a thumping sound as the wind turbine prop rotates during constant operation. There is of course, a sort of environmental landscape blight but I'm not going to discuss that point. Since the private land owners that lease their land for wind turbines are making a good income on the side.

My evolutionary concept is to borrow heavily from the design of the "Dyson Air Multiplier" and create a blade less wind turbine for residential use. Since if satellite dishes deployed in residential back yards are not more an eye sore than a blade less wind turbine dropped into such a spot.

Of the 2 main annoyances as I explained above being the "shadow flicker" and the "thumping" sound coming from today's wind turbines. Can be minimized if not removed with a blade less wind turbine. For instance, without a bladed propeller wind turbine, there is "No Shadow Flicker" whatsoever. The "thumping" sounds can be minimized by adding sound proofing materials around those segments of the center mast pole. Where the internally embedded propeller turbine generator would be situated.

Now to explain simply that the "Dyson Air Multiplier" fan has a propeller within its base. Including intake vents in the base shaft to suck the outside air and to blow it out via its circular head with slits. The slits are said to cause 15 times amplification in cooling a room. Much like a water hose where on the nozzle you place your finger and it sprays out at a quicker and harder velocity.

With this futuristic blade less wind turbine modeled after the "Dyson Air Multiplier". The internal shaft has a wind turbine propeller generator somewhere that is optimum within the center mast pole. So according to the size of such a center mast pole the blade less wind turbine would generate electricity in various amounts. Where the circular figurehead with slits is the intake area allowing it to pivot where the wind blows. The circular head slits can have some sort of wired mesh barrier to prevent wildlife such as birds to be sucked into the shaft pole. The interior wind turbine generator would be spinning in reverse thus allowing a suction to take place. The excess air is vented below the wind turbine propeller out via the exhaust ducts closer to the base of the center mast pole.

This can be an alternative design for wind turbines in generating electricity. Thus minimizing the Eye Sore tendency of the traditional pin wheel design or that of a classic Dutch wind mill. I'm sure if the "Dyson" company gets wind (pun intended) of this concept. They would run with it perhaps in partnership with "General Electric" that manufacturers wind turbines of their own.

So consider this concept a 2.0 version to the wind power turbine design for a greener alternative energy future for us all.
