Satanism? Satanist? Religion?
Church of Satan?
 
First of all by reading the title - we would think in the religion of Satan there would be Devil worship.
But it is not like that.
 
As High Priest Peter H. Gilmore says:
"Satanism begins with atheism. We begin with the universe and say, 'It’s indifferent. There’s no God, there’s no Devil. No one cares!"
 
There is a church The Church of Satan which is an organization dedicated to the acceptance of Man’s carnal self, as articulated in The Satanic Bible, written in 1969 by Anton LaVey.
 
Anton LaVey was a found of all this dogma.
 
The main texts of Satanism:
Satanists within the Church of Satan adhere to these as guidelines on how to live.
 
The Nine Satanic Statements
The Nine Satanic Statements outline what "Satan" represents in the Church of Satan.
   1. Satan represents indulgence instead of abstinence
   2. Satan represents vital existence instead of spiritual pipe dreams
   3. Satan represents undefiled wisdom instead of hypocritical self-deceit
   4. Satan represents kindness to those who deserve it instead of love wasted on ingrates
   5. Satan represents vengeance instead of turning the other cheek
   6. Satan represents responsibility to the responsible instead of concern for psychic vampires
   7. Satan represents man as just another animal, sometimes better, more often worse than those that walk on all-fours, who, because of his “divine spiritual and intellectual development,” has become the most vicious animal of all
   8. Satan represents all of the so-called sins, as they all lead to physical, mental, or emotional gratification
   9. Satan has been the best friend the Church has ever had, as he has kept it in business all these years
 
The Nine Satanic Sins
   1. Stupidity
   2. Pretentiousness
   3. Solipsism
   4. Self-deceit
   5. Herd Conformity
   6. Lack of Perspective
   7. Forgetfulness of Past Orthodoxies
   8. Counterproductive Pride
   9. Lack of Aesthetics
 
The Eleven Satanic Rules of the Earth
   1. Do not give opinions or advice unless you are asked
   2. Do not tell your troubles to others unless you are sure they want to hear them
   3. When in another’s lair, show him respect or else do not go there
   4. If a guest in your lair annoys you, treat him cruelly and without mercy
   5. Do not make sexual advances unless you are given the mating signal
   6. Do not take that which does not belong to you unless it is a burden to the other person and he cries out to be relieved
   7. Acknowledge the power of magic if you have employed it successfully to obtain your desires. If you deny the power of magic after having called upon it with success, you will lose all you have obtained
   8. Do not complain about anything to which you need not subject yourself
   9. Do not harm little children
  10. Do not kill non-human animals unless you are attacked or for your food
  11. When walking in open territory, bother no one. If someone bothers you, ask him to stop. If he does not stop, destroy him
 
After knowing all this we can see that on this earth there are many people who are not necessarily associated to the Church Of Satan but still are Satanists.

A cult of personality or personality cult arises when a country's leader uses mass media to create a larger-than-life public image through unquestioning flattery and praise. Cults of personality are often found in dictatorships but some can be found in some democracies as well.
A cult of personality is similar to general hero worship except that it is specifically built around political leaders. However, the term may be applied by analogy to refer to adulation of non-political leaders.

The criticism of personality cults often focuses on the regimes of Mussolini, Hitler, Stalin, and Mao. During the peak of their reigns, these leaders appeared as god-like infallible rulers. Their portraits were hung in every home or public building, and artists and poets were legally instructed to produce only works that glorified the leader and their political movements. The term cult of personality comes from Karl Marx's critique of the "cult of the individual" - expressed in a letter to German political worker, Wilhelm Bloss.

A study appearing today in the journal Science reports that the hunter-gatherers seem to be the only group of humans known to have no concept of numbering and counting.
There are really only three numeric words in Pirahã - "one," "two," and "many." To add to the confusion, "one" doesn't always mean exactly one - it could mean one fish, a small fish, or only a few fish.
Not only that, but adult Piraha apparently can't learn to count or understand the concept of numbers or numerals, even when they asked anthropologists to teach them and have been given basic math lessons for months at a time.
Their lack of enumeration skills is just one of the mental and cultural traits that has led scientists who have visited the 300 members of the tribe to describe the Piraha as "something from Mars."
Daniel Everett, an American linguistic anthropologist, has been studying and living with Piraha for 27 years.
Besides living a numberless life, he reports in a separate study prepared for publication, the Piraha are the only people known to have no distinct words for colours.
They have no written language, and no collective memory going back more than two generations.
They don't sleep for more than two hours at a time during the night or day.
Even when food is available, they frequently starve themselves and their children, Prof. Everett reports.
More than 60 years ago, amateur linguist Benjamin Lee Whorf argued that learning a specific language determined the nature and content of how you think.
That theory fell into intellectual disrepute after linguist Noam Chomsky's notions of a universal human grammar and Harvard University professor Steven Pinker's idea of a universal language instinct became widely accepted.
Piraha's language has a grammar so radical that it could possibly disprove the theory that certain principles of grammar are shared by all languages– the universal grammar theory.
Of more interest to linguists is the discovery that the Pirahã language does not allow for one phrase to be embedded inside another, which means the language is not recursive.
They communicate almost as much by singing, whistling and humming as by normal speech.
They frequently change their names, because they believe spirits regularly take them over and intrinsically change who they are.
...
One might think that this unique way of life would disappear if introduced to modern life, but this is not the case. They do not live in isolation; they have been in contact with other Brazilians for over two hundred years, and they have sold goods to traders for quite a while. Rather than being absorbed by their neighbors, they resist. The reason for this is because the Pirahã see themselves as intrinsically better than the people around them, and so they do their best to avoid being like others. Maybe they resisted progress so fiercely that they have succeeded in keeping their culture different from those around them. Then again, maybe they really are superior, and we just lack the mental faculties to realize it.

Link between Mathematics and Quantum Physics.
The significant number 42.
 
In 1972, the physicist Freeman Dyson wrote an article called "Missed Opportunities." In it, he describes how relativity could have been discovered many years before Einstein announced his findings if mathematicians in places like Göttingen had spoken to physicists who were poring over Maxwell's equations describing electromagnetism. The ingredients were there in 1865 to make the breakthrough—only announced by Einstein some 40 years later.
This unexpected connection with physics has given us a glimpse of the mathematics that might, ultimately, reveal the secret of these enigmatic numbers. At first the link seemed rather tenuous. But the important role played by the number 42 has recently persuaded even the deepest skeptics that the subatomic world might hold the key to one of the greatest unsolved problems in mathematics.
In their search for patterns, mathematicians have uncovered unlikely connections between prime numbers and quantum physics. Will the subatomic world help reveal the elusive nature of the primes?

Ever been on a date and wondered "What on Earth am I doing with this person?" Or perhaps you wished there was a way that you could instantly find your perfect match, and then go on a date during which everything just went right?

Wish no more: Google Romance, a beta product currently incubating in Google Labs, uses cutting-edge personal search algorithms to help you find your soulmate, then sponsors your first Contextual Date with said soulmate-to-be in exchange for showing you highly relevant advertising that just might help Cupid's arrow find its mark. Does it really work? Ask our internal beta testers -- if you can find them, that is. Not a single one has shown up for work in days.

So why not give it a try yourself? You've got true love to gain, and only your faith in psychographic and contextual advertising software to lose.

Sun Helps Architect with J2EE Technology Standards and Instill Development Best Practices

EBAY V3 ROLLOUT STATUS
Three-Phase Roll Out

From the beginning, the V3 architecture roll-out was planned to occur in three distinct phases:

Phase One: Design Concepts. A broad set of eBay constituents, Sun consultants, and other technology vendors agreed on concepts and produced top-level design specifications. These specifications were used to convert a small part of the site to prove the viability of the architectural strategy.
Phase Two: Proof of Concepts and Initial Deployments. Working with Sun consultants, eBay teams refined concepts and made final decisions through prototyping and the actual development of initial V3 components. This included converting the most heavily trafficked part of the site to confirm that the architecture could deliver on the quality-of-service requirements that had been identified.
Phase Three: Wide-Scale Migration. Based on priority and, moreover, ease of integration, eBay will migrate all of its services and applications to the V3 architecture.

An Excerpt:
"...A very senior Microsoft developer who moved to Google told me that Google works and thinks at a higher level of abstraction than Microsoft. "Google uses Bayesian filtering the way Microsoft uses the if statement," he said. That's true. Google also uses full-text-search-of-the-entire-Internet the way Microsoft uses little tables that list what error IDs correspond to which help text. Look at how Google does spell checking: it's not based on dictionaries; it's based on word usage statistics of the entire Internet, which is why Google knows how to correct my name, misspelled, and Microsoft Word doesn't..."

Scratches no match for Nissan's new car paint
 
Nissan Motor said Friday it had created a paint that repairs scratches on its own, restoring a car's surface to normal within a week.
Wear and tear due to everything from fingernails to roadside objects will disappear in one day to one week depending on the temperature and the seriousness of the scratch, Nissan said in a statement.
The "Scratch Guard Coat" paint, which protects for three years, will debut on a sports-utility vehicle which is set for a makeover, Nissan said.
The paint also helps prevent scratches in the first place.

(Salaam)
Today we felt some shivering in our office building which has 10 floors and we are on 8th.
We are in Deira Dubai near Dubai International Air port.
People felt 3 quick quakes in our office and then they asked other ppl to go outside the building quickly and then in minutes ppl ran and all building was evacuated and within duration all building's fire alarm also started ringing and adding to the fear.
By the  grace of God nothing happened.
And today we got off from office early, and i came back home and wrote this blog.
 
Hopefully nothing more is going to happen.
Pray to God, Allah, ask forgiveness.

Astaghfirullah!

WSalaam.

Carbon dioxide levels highest for 650,000 years
 
Levels of carbon dioxide (CO2), the principal gas that drives global warming, are now 27 pct higher than at any point in the last 650,000 years, according to research into Antarctic ice cores.
 
The evidence comes from the world's deepest ice core, drilled at a site called Dome Concordia (Dome C) in East Antarctica by European scientists, Agence France-Presse said.
The core, extracted using a 10-centimeter-wide drill bit in three-meter sections, brought up ice that was deposited by snows up to 650,000 years ago, as determined by estimated layers of annual snowfall.
Analysis of carbon dioxide trapped in bubbles in the ancient ice showed that at no point during this time frame did levels get anywhere close to today's CO2 concentrations of around 380 parts per mln.
Today's rising CO2 concentrations are 27 pct higher than at the highest level seen over the 650,000-year time scale, according to the study, which appears in the weekly US journal Science. In the past five years, the average global temperature has risen by 0.2 C -- 100 times higher than is normal for such a short time scale -- and 2005 is on course for being the hottest year on record.

 Gene turn-off makes meek mice fearless
 
Deactivating a specific gene transforms meek mice into daredevils, researchers have found. The team believe the research might one day enable people suffering from fear – in the form of phobias or anxiety disorders, for example – to be clinically treated.
 
In the experiments, the stathmin-lacking mice wandered out into the centre of an open box, in defiance of the normal mouse instinct to hide along the box’s walls to avoid potential predators.
 
 
"It does not mention obvious military applications for the discovery."
