449th day of the Tens

The food we produce, the excrement we consume?
Gizzardy bits.
Lizzardy bits.
Wizardly bits.
Licking lips.
We don't seem to mind whether the food gets contaminated or not so long as we see some suspicious items on the product information, or ingredients.
Take Cochineal for example. The process of making a taste and a dye to form Cochineal involves crushing red beetles. 'Natural' things like this give good health despite their representation as an E-number. E120 represents Cochineal.
Alcoholic cocktails with »lila« colours probably contain Cochineal. Beetle juice! cry the scarabs who love a good crushin'. "Go on, crush us. We love a good crushin'"
The Dactylopius Coccus gets scraped off the back of the beetle, the female one only. No gender equality in the crushing of scarabs.
Some vegetarians, the more discriminating ones, consider it unfair on beetles to go through something like boiling alive to produce Cochineal. It really comes down to the matter of taste.
The process of sun-exposure to the beetle in question matures a flavour for a very humane consumption.

449th day of the Tens

No alternative to life. Except work for a change. 4K kilo-joules get removed and transferred by the likes of Wan Wijnen and other such apartment construction companies. Foremen worry that if it goes over the deadline, the appointed time for work, the cost for public money goes up.
It takes a whole a academic year to make an academic building. The migratory population of students see it go up and then leave town when its brand spanking new.
So Foremen feel relaxed and happy about not overshooting it. The deadline or the public money.
Health-and-safety measures go in place before anything goes up. This includes the 'tipper' which doesn't tip over.
An overtipper looks like a maitre giving another maitre a ten per cent'er.
Public money can only afford 10% for apartment building construction. Otherwise, the Foreman goes to the businesses men and asks them what they want constructing instead.
If we as consumers pursuade business with our custom to invest in public funding then we can make houses together.

448th day of the Tens

Lady Gaga continues to clause controversy both in media discussions surrounding her and the live performances procedding from her. Of course, those in the know realize that her backdrop, as well as her persona, directs people to Madonna. Belladonna!

The non-sensible one and the sensible one, Ciccione, the non-eternal and the eternal. Belladonna!

We, here at zeroequalsthree, perceive it as an elaborate ploy. Do we buy her shameless advertising or do we lap up the sex? Belladonna!

Do we participate in this as a sexual rite even if it appears to us as a Voyeuristic image, spreading out to a point.

«une visage sans visage?»

Take the consumption of pornography as an analogue for what we try to express here, contracting to a point. The symbol behind the playback of a pornographic recording goes into our vision. Consider this:

»Das Auge ist das Licht des Leibes. Wenn dein Auge lauter ist, so wird dein ganzer Leib licht sein«

Does it not lead to a true desire if we consume the image in an orgiastic state, or does it confuse our sexual sensibilities as if the image we consume leads us away from the light in sex to a dark and seedy possibility that may leave us wholly unsatisfied?

The real image internal fairs much better than the external idolatrous celebrity.

447th day of the Tens

We, here at zeroequalsthree, received word today from Reuters News Agent, Mo Simir, who tells us that:

" ... 'Green Zones' in Iraq expand to accomodate regular Baghdadi civilians and Iraqi citizens alike. If the Military Industrial Complex, responsible for the contracting of reconstruction projects, can successfully expand the 'Green Zone' areas safely, then, everyday people from Iraq can make business successfully. "

"The 'Perimeter', says Mister Simir, "looks like a volatile zone but as long as normal day-to-day life continues without interruption then the threat to safety lessens."
He continues:

"Yet, the challenge for the Military Industrial Complex lies in making the green zones safe whilst employing less force and manpower to maintain it. We, at Reuters, think that if Iraqi institutions inhabit these safer zones, then, more citizens would move to these areas and leave the zones where terror keeps them in fear."

446th day of the Tens

Military Intelligence renders itself obsolete like the old warheads of the Cold War. If only. MI5 receives word from travellers these days in the interests of National Security, regularly returning. The worthy, those who travail across Europe and return, tell the authorities what they know. Reports suggest that this kind of intelligence passes muster, and so, it gets passed on after into more reliable hands and more reliable authorities. We receive regular word, here @zeroequalsthree, that the terrorists, who ever they choose to attack, may possesses and share the possibility of nuclear capability, and, if in the wrong hands, the employability. We do not as yet know whether a technology could deploy a nuclear warhead without catching the Private Eye.
The way that this intelligence finds assimilation interests us as it may provide clues to the secret machinations and surreptitous movements of cell branches of many different kinds. What would the IRA do with such information?

446th day of the Tens

The FTSE All-Share as an index loses more money in stock market investment than both Gold and Oil. Of course, Gold appreciates in value according to the current post-recession climate. Pawn shops and brokers alike accepted all types of gold, traded in, melted down and returned to the relevant treasury. Since the infamous date of 'peak oil', July 11th 2008, Oil also appreciates in the post-recession climate. Professional Stock Broker, Jack Stoker, says:
"Buy now, sell later, Hassan-i-Sabbah! Everything must go."
He tells us, that if one were to split an investment across the three markets, FTSE, Gold, & Oil, with equal investment, the losses on FTSE index would work for both aprreciating values that compete against it. He says:
"Expect a rise of 33.36% in Gold & Oil markets and the same as a loss on all FTSE 'Share' indexed."
According to Stoker, the best time to sell occurs when the plus markets begin to show a long-tail distrubution of loss.
"It may look like the stocks begin to fall sharply, but their loss appreciates slower than other markets, so it's a safe hedge bet," Stoker tells us.

445th day of the Tens

Hindus and Moslems alike within the Commonwealth Territory of Queensland, Australia, express concerns over whether the Hillsong Church operates like a cult. Charismatic leaders lead impressionable and suggestible minds to a type of reception.
"Receive it now," says the Minister, stood above a young girl, professing ultimate faith.
She wants to receive something from him.
"He's coming!" cry the children en masse as the charismatic leader approaches.
Apparently, a sexual rite took place on a Hilltop, and the children interfered with the other children's sexuality. Everyone hit puberty.

The city of Maastricht's contribution to the Gross Decimal Product of the Netherlands last week broke even at love all, as per the Tennis Term for score. Economically, consumers were worried that the citizens might be undercutting business in the other provinces of the Netherlands. Less, less, less, they cried in desperate conservation.
It was a hard week for the 'junkers' and the proprietors alike. The 'junkers' or, rather, the Unionists argued and argued over pay conditions, and the rest of the workers worried over their prices. It was as-if everyone was walking around with prices attached to their heads!
Economist's tips show that GDP contributions were at their lowest until a miraculous turn-around on Thursday of last week. As the men-of-letters say, "Thursday breaks the back of the week, Friday's got that feeling of a weekend not worried over working."
A hoard of rich businessmen accompanying politicians had come to Maastricht to discuss GDP in the European Union and they and their mistresses, glaguous terms-in-tow, were honoured to have the finest jewelery lavished upon them from the finest jewelers in the city. Plus GDP! Plus Three ...

Carling Black Label...

Dogs Dinner. The Proles turn their noses up at a Silver Spoon.
Clubbers in England who turn up to events sponsored by the brewery, Carling Black Label, turn themselves away if the beer-of-choice does not get service, despite the sponsorship. Punters travail off to Wetherspoons for a cheaper pint and better entertainment.

Hackers, jackers, slackers and 'warez amateurs all contribute to a new virus behind the internet. Since coders like those behind the project 'Google Will Eat Itself' and other randomers unleashed the antidote to the Adword viral marketing scheme, Adwords now contribute to their own end. Take this blog for example, which uses Adwords to promote it until the moment the blogger removes them. From that moment onwards every backer, i.e. the corporeal entity behind the Adwords, forms a new corporeal entity that looks to the words it thus far pays for. The secret that no Adword subscriber knows about: the antidote, such as GWEI, stacks up clicks-and-hits on behalf of the newsperson. Good for news, bad for business. Scroll down to see which corporeal entity backs this blog today. It changes tomorrow, depending on the tags! :D

It eats it up like a monster!

440th day of the Tens

I was a pioneer from a very young age. Climbing my mother's mountains. The Peaks. Across the penine way, I play music, with me best friends, Benjamin and Matthew. My little brother is called Simon. He was always astonished. Every time he fell in the water, the first time was fishing. He cast his line for a bite. Twotting, he was. Something pulled him. In fact, in fact, he was just excited about being carried away by a fish. He rose up from the water, astonished, no fished. Just surprise that he'd bobbed up. We were astonished! At the expression on his face, we observed how he trod the water, even such at such a young age, without swimming a lesson, he was swimming. We pulled him out immediately and he lived to swim another day. The next summer, he fell in the sea! Simon, my little brother, my favourite son. And also, Benjamin. Played for the Latics, against the likes of other players. Lost 5-1. Best game he ever had had. And what of our Ruth. She stayed away from the water, playing with fire, blowing hot air into the aether. I've had her, Ruth Alison Clemens, that is. And what of my dad, the name that shall not be known. His colleagues, know him as Alan George Lomas. The best in the business. And what of Ami, my mother, always a Qavanagh, the best journalist, a true woman of the agency of the letter. Her colleagues know her as Christine Anne, the best psychologist in the business for causing them a host of problems. And our neighbours, how they despised us, until they had lived with us, and made us what we always were.
Yours Truly,
Matthew Peter Lomas.
Shemiy Eliyahu Nataniyel ben James.
Simon Bar-Jonah, Simon John Lomas.
Benjamin James Lomas
Alan George Lomas
Christine Ann Lomas
Ruth Alison Clemens
And to the rest of them, if they've met me, Sarai, and him,
Yeshuah Immanuel ben Yosef.

Unverifiable news reports circle memetically toward people inclined to believe that evidence exists to prepare us for a cataclysmic event. Unless you live in the United Kingdom, the main parts of France and Spain, the Brown Dwarf Star, the Binary Sun, revolving around the main one, then you could succumb to nature and her aenema.

We can't trust astrology. Do NASA know? { http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/hubble/science/brown-dwarf-companion.html }

Others discuss it openly through this medium: { http://forums.abrahadabra.com/showthread.php?2681-the-Case-for-A-Binary-Partner-to-our-Sun }

Bands, such as Tool, rave about it in songs, the most convincing medium, such as 'Aenema'.

Hollywood Public Service Broadcasts such 'Deep Impact' and 'Waterworld' believed by many.

440th day of the Tens

As the RAF's aircraft capabilities continue to evolve, the effect delivered by specific squadrons of aircraft also changes. For example, the forthcoming arrival into service of the additional Reaper Unmanned Aerial Vehicles, Future Strategic Tanker Aircraft and the A400M sees squadrons stood up, while those currently operating C130 Hercules, VC10 and Tristar either re-equips to these new aircraft types or disbands these aircrafts and go out of service. When squadrons disband the number plate gets placed on the dormant list, rather than being abolished. Those squadron number plates not currently allocated cannot find their reissue, most notably when new capabilities enter service, based on seniority or their traditional role.

Last Autumn No. 6 Squadron stood-up operating Typhoon aircraft, which replaces the Tornado F3 in the air defence role this month. As a result No. 111(F) Squadron disbands and Tornado F3 also retires as planned.

Following the strategic defence and security review (SDSR), the Royal Air Force Harrier squadrons (Nos. 1(F) and IV(R)) disband and the Nimrod MRA4 shall not go into service which means that Nos. 42(R), 120 and 201 Squadrons disband in May 2011. On 1 March 2011 they announce the disbandment, in June 2011, of Nos. XIII and 14 Squadrons operating the Tornado GR4.

The SDSR decisions on Nimrod MRA4 and our fast jet fleet shall lead to a reduction in the size of our training pipeline. No. 76 (R) Squadron, which operates the Tucano training aircraft, shall disband on 12 May 2011. They continue to work through the full implications in this area and cannot therefore release further details at this time. More to follow ...

Conversely, The Guardian, VHS Rental5 August, contains The Shipping News (15, Buena Vista HE) and The Brothers (15, Columbia Tristar).
