Listen to the next 3 poems; list their numbers in the corresponding sections of the table above. 1) Reference: Oscar Wilde. Autobiography by H. Montgomery Hyde. Da Capo Press, Sub. Of Plenum Publishing Corp., New York, NY 10013. © 1975, Page 85.

We caught the tread of dancing feet,We loitered down the moonlit street,And stopped beneath the Harlot’s houseInside, above the din and fray,We heard the loud musician’s playThe “Treues Liebe Herz” of Strauss.We watched the ghostly dancers spinTo sound of horn and violin,Like black leaves wheeling in the wind…

Then turning to my love, I said,“The dead are dancing with the Dead,The dust is whirling with the dust”But she-she heard the violin,And left my side and entered in:Love passed into the house of lust.Then suddenly the tune went false,The dancers wearied of the waltz,The shadows ceased to wheel and whirl.And down the long and silent street,The dawn, with silver-sandalled feet,Crept like a frightened girl.

3) Reference: Excerpted from The Collected Poems of Edith Sitwell. by Dame Edith Sitwell. The Vanguard Press, Inc., New York, NY ©1968, Pages 65-66.

The princess was young as the innocent flowersThat bloom and love through the bright spring hours:Sometimes she crept through locked doors to annoyThe palace housekeeper, cross Mrs. Troy,Who kept all the whimpering sad ghosts lockedIn a cupboard, was greived and faintly shockedIf the princess Jehanne, long since dead,Whose hair was of costly long gold thread,Would slip her flat body, like a gleaming,Quivering fish in a clear pool dreaming, Through the deep mesh of conversation,

Making some ghostly imputation;Or if she frightened the maids till they winceBy stealing a withered gold-crowned quinceWherewith they make preserves; in the gloomShe seems; as she glimmers round the room,Like a lovely milk-white unicornIn a forestall thicket of thorn.Life was so still, so clear, that to wake Under a kingfisher’s limpid lakeIn the lovely afternoon of a dreamWould not remote or stranger seem.Everything seemed so clear for a while –The turn of a head or a deep-seen smile;Then a smile seen through wide leaves or deep water,…

ORGANIZATIONObjective: Ways to dealing with Subconscious.

DEFINITIONS: Subconscious: 1) The mind space where unre-solved things are set to be resolved; 2) the pre-occupation with other things; 3) the capability to resolve things in time and space.Stuck: The capability to get blocked or preoccu-pied from action or thinking by ideas and situations that are too overwhelming or complex. How to not get stuck:1) Keep functionality and set aside a space to put ideas you can get to later. 2) Plan time every day to visit your Subconscious to determine what to do with stuck ideas & chem.

3) If ideas and chemistry still get you stuck, decide you need to keep and resolve them long term, or not. (Occasionally take time to resolve.)4) If information is not of interest to you, throw out. 5) If there is information someone needs to get, determine if you can or want to connect it, then plan, or take it out of, your schedule accordingly.

Signs you need Subconscious space or activities:1) You have a lot of static or feel fragmented;2) You have a panic attack and don’t know why;3) Unresolved ideas or situations;4) Communication from other people that things aren’t working between you.5) List 5 Subconscious Activities: CLASS3

5)What you Think and Believe Affects how you sort, classify, learn and study.If you have a Framework that is True and Comprehensive, you will be able to think and sort that way.

Framework ExamplesThere is a Right and Wrong, and many shades of gray in between. Right is Right and Wrong is Wrong. This is the basis of the legal system, and most ethical and moral behavior. Created Life is flat –There was nothing until Something decided to be, and someone created other people and things.Life Framework – Life creates Life. Life and Created Life dictate and tell what causes growth, and what has no growth potential.Balance – There is a perfect balance in all things. When there is change, there is a re-balancing of all things to make the change.Choice is inherent in all things. Your choice to proceed is called Will or Will Power. Your choice to go along with something, or abstain from action is called is called Willingness.Take responsibility for everything you co-create, because you have to control it.Known and Unknown is the realm of maintaining the frequency of knowing and honesty of not knowing. This is a Truth Life.

Some Frameworks have been proven and tested over time. They are proven True and Relevant. Pick your Framework wisely.

Results of Wrong FrameworksKnowledge of Right and Wrong is missing and the person is disoriented or hedonistic.

not be able to adapt or they may seek an unbalanced life until it is dangerous to themselves and others.Without a Choice framework, a person may make others take responsibility for them.Knowing is stolen or lied about.

Right Framework ResultsRight & Wrong: The person will be, and is willing to be, honest and hardworking.Creator Life: The person is interested in work projects.Life Framework: The person is interested in biological and natural growth.Balance: The person is idealistic, realistic and functional.Choice: The person is responsible and sensible in their choices.Knowing is natural and collaborative. Person knows Truth in self and others.

Evolution as a FrameworkMost believe that Life was started and should proceed for the progress, learning, and excellence of Life. Evolutionary Decisions are evaluated based on progress. Progress versus non-progress is evaluated in all relevant areas for the Individual and Outer, for its effect on All things. Evolutionary Results are from decisions that were made for, or allowed for, Optimal progress. Questions: What are Evolutions that you know of?

What kind of Evolutions do you want to initiate or participate in?

Reference: Make: 21st Century Robotby Brian David Johnson, Maker Media, Inc., Sebastopol, CA, © 2015, pages vii-viii.

(Excerpted from) The Making of a Manifesto…For most or their history, robots have only lived in science fiction. Long before the technology to build them was ready, robots could only be seen or experienced in science fiction stories, movies, comic books, and often times only in toys. But that didn’t stop people from imagining robots and exploring their implications. In fact, cultures all over the world have imagined and explored the implications of robots, long before the word was coined by Czechoslovakian writer Karel Capek in 1920.

In the last half of the twentieth century, robots began their journey from our imaginations to the real world. Industrial robots started to help us build our cars and work in our factories. Research robots of all shapes and sizes were developed and built in university research labs. But even with all these new robots making their way into the world, for most people, robots were still exotic and foreign, still the product of science fiction and our imaginations. But then something happened…

Around the turn of this century, robots became something very different. No longer were they creations locked away in large universities and corporations. In the twenty-first century, robots became something anyone could build; a part of our daily lives—right where they belong.

THE EYES HAVE IT! We see well because our eyes are very good at taking in information about shape, distance, movement, and color. We also see well because many nerves send pictures from our eyes to our brains where they make sense to us. Our brains are “tuned“ to quickly make sense of what our eyes see. We are taught to pay attention to some things more than others. We also learn to expect to see some things in a certain way. How is that? For example, take a paper plate of any size and cut two sections of the rim (arcs) to exactly the same size. Place one on top of the other and trim them so that you are certain that they are duplicate shapes. Now lay them flat on the table with one above the other. Does one look smaller? Your eye/brain compares the inner curve of the upper plate rim to the outer curve of the lower plate rim and “tells“ you that the upper plate rim is smaller because you have been trained to “believe” that a line that fits inside another one indicates a smaller item. Often you will see what you expect to see or even what you want to see.

FROM EYES TO BRAIN TO HAND Artists understand how trained eyes work. They can make you think, for example, that you can see miles into the distance on a flat piece of paper. Try this: Take a plain piece of paper and draw a horizontal line across it about a third of the way down the page. This will be your horizon. Now pick a point on your horizon. This will be the “vanishing point.” Start from that point and draw two lines toward the bottom of the page. What do you have? It could be a road leading off into the desert. Maybe it’s a river leading out of the mountains. What happens when you start the “vanishing point” at the bottom of the page? What happens if you change the space between the lines? When you go outside, see if this is the way a road looks to you. Although this seems quite simple, people did not know how to draw with perspective, as you just did, until the period of history we call the Renaissance (about A.D. 1400-1600). Those who studied art and geometry uncovered the mathematics of how to show distance. They were so excited about the “trick“ that many of the paintings during that time show it.

AcknowledgementsThis book is the result of a number of years looking at and thinking about nineteenth-century art, and is indebted to a great many people; teachers, colleagues, and students. Particularly I would like to thank for their exchange of ideas and/or practical help, Dennis Cates, Anne Coffin Hanson, Ronald Nasgaard, Linda Nochlin, Theodore Reff, Robert Rosenbaum, Kirk Varnedoe, Gabriel Weisberg, Carol Zemel, Henri Zerner, and Dario Darewych in North America. In Norway, Oscar Thue and Jan Askelund went out their way to increase my knowledge of Christian Krogh’s art. In France, I benefitted from conversations

with Robert Cluster and Marie-France Pauline, and the latter’s practical help. In England, I am indebted to John House, John Murdoch, and Richard Thomson. The Bibliography is a guide to the many scholars whose writings have vastly expanded my own researches and ideas. The seminar students whom I have asked-without first inflicting my own ideas on them-to analyze paintings and prints, in order not only to sharpen their abilities but to provide a correction to my own assumptions, have been a valuable resource. Brenda Hicks has been an intelligent and able typist in the face of my demands. The Faculty of Fine Arts of York University, Toronto, has provided fellowships that have enabled me to do research in Europe, and I have also benefitted from travel grants from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada. Finally, I would like to thank my editor Cases Candied, Jr., for his patience, and my wife Peggy for her encouragement, and her unflagging enthusiasm in visiting so many museums and collections.

NEWS - CNN.COM, 1/29/15Senate Passes Keystone XL Measure

Washington (CNN)The Senate passed a bipartisan bill on Thursday to clear construction of the Keystone XL pipeline, a controversial project that would transport oil from Canada to the Gulf of Mexico.

The vote was 62 to 39. Nine mostly centrist Democrats joined with Republicans to support the bill despite President Barack Obama's promise to veto it. The President has said the decision should remain within the executive branch.

The latest promotion had been sent in the mail and there would be a deluge of responses in the next week. Finally there was congratulations for the second salesman because his wife had just had a baby. The child was named Nate after his grandfather.

BIOGRAPHICAL(8/6-7/1863 Letters)The Collected Works of Abraham Lincoln VI 1862-1863 Abraham Lincoln Association, Springfield, IL, Editor: Roy P. Basler, AE: M.D. Pratt and L.A. Dunlap.

To Horatio SeymourHis Excellency Horatio Seymour ExecutiveMansion, Aug. 7, 1963.Your communications of the 3r. Inst. has been received, and attentively considered I can not consent to suspend the draft in New York, as you request, because, among other reasons, time is too important. By the figures you send, which I presume are correct, the twelve Districts represented fall into two classes of eight, and four respectively. The disparity of the quotas for the draft, in these two classes is certainly very striking, being the difference between and an average of 2200 in one class, and 4864 in the other. ...To Mary Todd LincolnExecutive Mansion, Washington, August, 8 1863 – My dear Wife. All is well as usual, and no particular trouble any way. I put the money into the Treasury at five percent, with the privilege of withdrawing it any time upon thirty days' notice. ...

SCIENCE FICTIONOut of The Silent Planet (Ch. 15, Pg. 91)

“Come in, Small One,” boomed the sorn. “Come in and let me look at you.” Now that he stood face to face with the spectre that haunted him ever since he set foot on Malacandra Ransom felt a surprising indifference. He had no idea what might be coming next, but he was determined to carry out his programme; and in the meantime the warmth and more breathable air were a heaven in themselves. He came in, well in past the fire, and answered the sorn. His own voice sounded to him a shrill treble. “The hrossa have sent me to look for Oyarsa,” he said. The sorn peered at him. “You are not from this world,” it said suddenly. “No,” replied Ransom, and sat down. He was too tired to explain. “I think you are from Thulcandra, Small One,” said the sorn. “Why?” said Ransom.

NEWS EDITORIAL The NATIONMonday December 20, 1965. 201, No. 21, Pg.86.Economics of the Long WarThe news media, electronic and printed alike, live the drama: consequently nothing makes them happier than a confrontation, a clash of wills among titans. So the disagreement between the President of the United States and the Chairman of the Federal Reserve Board was pictured in gladiatorial terms, with William McChesney Martin fighting for tight money against the old Populist from the Southwest, beating his breast for easy credit, full employment and the Great Society. There may be some truth in this interpretation of the Federal Reserve's hiking of the discount rate by half a point, but it is not the whole truth, nor even a major part. Mr. Johnson might well wish that Mr. Martin were his subordinate, to be fired at will, but Woodrow Wilson and Carter Grass did not plan it that way, and in the end Mr. Johnson may be glad that fiscal policy is not entirely in his hands.

In the beginning there was nothing at all. And nothing went on. Nothing went right and nothing went wrong. There was nothing.

Near the beginning they were learning to be an All. Later someone stole part of the first ALL. They would then have to learn to defend, be decent, and get through the difficult times – or they would lose their Godship and their humanity. They had to build back their quality. Many things were challenging.

Later there was Life and Death and some beings lived and some beings died. They learned how to bring the dead beings back to life by calling to them. They learned to kill the life beings if they were really wrong. Life allied with all Life. Death was a place to rest and prepare for the next life. Most things went right. Some things went wrong and were corrected. Every-thing was natural and in tune with its limitations and options.

Finally the quantities of beings were so big that they needed to organize, and select an organizer. They sought out governance, and they learned to govern. This was the forerunner of a Republic and Democracy. Things went right when they were systematized, and they went wrong for individual exceptions to the needed rules. Finally all were considered the same to guarantee ease of rule and rules.

In the future (Now) these beings chose to be civilized and gentrified. They wan-ted to 1) enjoy city, farm and universal living, 2) attend -movies, musical, cultural, intellectual and all important - events; 3) participate in commerce and innovation; and 4) know what was going on via media, networks, and healthy living.

How the U.S. Government Is OrganizedThe Constitution of the United States divides the federal government into three branches to ensure a central government in which no individual or group gains too much control:

Legislative – Makes laws (Congress consisting of the Senate & House of Representatives

Executive – Carries out laws (President, Vice President, Cabinet)

Judicial – Evaluates laws (Supreme Court and Other Federal Courts)

Each branch of government can change acts of the other branches as follows:

The president can veto laws passed by Congress.

Congress confirms or rejects the president's appointments and can remove the president from office in exceptional circumstances.

The justices of the Supreme Court, who can overturn unconstitutional laws, are appointed by the president and confirmed by the Senate.

The U.S. federal government seeks to act in the best interests of its citizens through this system of checks and balances.

Legislative BranchThe legislative branch enacts legislation, confirms or rejectspresidential appointments, and has the authority to declare war.

Representatives) and several agencies that provide support services to Congress. American citizens have the right to vote for senators and representatives through free, confidential ballots.

Senate - There are two elected senators per state, totaling 100 senators. A senate term is six years and there's no limit to the number of terms an individual can serve.

House of Representatives - There are 435 elected representa-tives, which are divided among the 50 states in proportion to their total population. There are addi-tional non-voting delegates who represent the District of Columbia and the territories. A representa-tive serves a two-year term, and there's no limit to the number of terms an individual can serve.

Executive BranchThe executive branch carries out and enforces laws. It includes the president, vice president, the Cabinet, executive departments, independent agencies, and other boards, commissions, and committees.

American citizens have the right to vote for the president and vice president through free, confiden-tial ballots. Key roles of the executive branch include:

President - The president leads the country. He/she is the head of state, leader of the federal government, and commander-in-chief of the United States Armed Forces. The president serves a four-year term and can be elected no more than two times.

If the President is unable to serve, the Vice President becomes President. He/she can serve an unlimited number of four-year terms.

The Cabinet - Cabinet members serve as advisors to the president. They include the vice president and the heads of executive departments. Cabinet members are nominated by the president and must be approved by the Senate (with at least 51 votes).

Judicial BranchThe judicial branch interprets the meaning of laws, applies laws to individual cases, and decides if laws violate the Constitution.

The judicial branch is comprised of the Supreme Court and other federal courts.

Supreme Court - The Supreme Court is the highest court in the United States. The justices of the Supreme Court are nominated by the president and must be approved by the Senate (with at least 51 votes). Congress decides the number of justices. Currently, there are 9. There is no fixed term for justices. They serve until their death, retirement, or removal in exceptional circumstances.Other Federal Courts - The Constitution grants Congress the authority to establish other federal courts.Reference: http://www.usa.gov/Agencies/federal.shtml
