Why can't I add more favorites

April 26th, 2003  -  Only three days after a previous record, Sherpa Lakpa Gelu climbs Mount Everest in 10 hours 56 minutes. The tourism ministry of Nepal confirms this record in July that year.


Day 787.  He wants to get back fast to Katmandu. 360 vista is your field of view. Far from the endless limits ballyhoo.  
K - k - k - k - k - Katmandu,  We'll never fix it so we all withdrew.  It's so much cooler here than Timbuktu.

Instead of code we cook a mean yak stew, Not spiced with SQL just one old bowling shoe. Unless we trick a hapless caribou.
K - k - k - k - k - Katmandu,  Not subject to annoying peer review, No expectations we must live up to... off in Katmandu.
Any... (iambic pentameter) Day.. Now.

Instead of code we cook a mean yak stew

Yak stew.  It doesn't get any better.  That's living large.

Day 787.

Has there been any official explanation as to how this Herculian effort (raising the limit from 150 to, what, 250) was accomplished?  It must have been something along the lines of the Manhattan Project, right?  I mean, it took not days, weeks or months to pull it off, but years!

That alone tells you it had to be big, Big, BIG.

It must have been something along the lines of the Manhattan Project, right?

You are exactly right, Lil.   The design was untested and many worried it might set the internets on fire.  The painstaking work on miles of centrifuges to separate enough delicate code elements to make the kernel, the tricky compression scheme to squeeze it, the triggers that had to be simultaneous, the initiator to start the sequence, and the tamping to absorb stray admin neurons all had to work the first time.

Sadly. I think someone died during the development.  Then there was the gruesome fiasco with the sharks, after the ship that delivered the gadget sank but it was so secret no one knew where they were.  Then later, a few inside spys gave the design to ESPN and Yahoo and saved them several years of hard work.  Last, of course, the head guy who worked so tirelessly to get it done was backstabbed by a jealous colleague, his clearance was pulled and he never worked on important stuff ever again. 

Ever since, they've been trying to keep it out of terrorist hands and buying up all the code elements that sit unsecured around the world.  big, Big, BIG indeed.   Think what might happen if Iran gets the working code?   Then there is Pakistan...  where all the outsourced customer service agents are!    Soooooooo close to......    Katmandu.

On this date in 1986 the reactor in Chernobyl exploded in one of the worst nuclear disasters of all time.

Day 787, the favorites limit is keeping good company.

Has there been any official explanation as to how this Herculian effort (raising the limit from 150 to, what, 250) was accomplished?

Simply put, I asked.

So ask for a larger number..

Who says I didn't?

I think I might start calling ozzier "Mr. Manhattan Project."  Nope, just Manhattan.

Much punchier, don't you think? 

Much punchier, don't you think?

Kat Man(hattan) Du ?

Being the J.Robert Oppenheimer of the CBS Manhattan project is double-edged.  He would need to speak sanskrit (or some archane coding language), read the Bagavageta (or an alternate sacred tome) and be wary of being backstabbed by whomever is the Edward Teller of admins (pushing for bigger bombs than the limits fiasco). 

Repeat after me:  "I have become death, the destroyer of worlds."   Stay away from Alamagordo, NM...  and headquarters.

Why is 6 scared?  because (it's day) 789.

Simply put, I asked. 

Which means, of course, that all the other talk by the admins about 'fighting to get the limit raised' was a load of crap.

...and I'd say there would be plenty of resources to handle favorites.  And have fast page loads.

Just thinking of a song I just heard by Bob Dylan:
Only a Pawn in their game

Don't know why  say this

I don't either, bucky...  that song is about racism.

Bob Dylan is one of your favorites, I think.


But thanks for stopping by.

Day 791.   Was this the first CBS admin who replied to users?  ..Maybe R. W. Chan's father?  ..was he shoeless?    Any... (they'll make a movie about all this someday)  Day.. Now.

Googled 'day 791' and this whack job popped up.  I bet he's the only guy in the world who could mathmatically justify taking away our favorites....

1. Introduction: Opening co-incidence – unlocking a terma
On Self-existing Moon 5 (22 October 2010) I noted that in the 1000 days to 2012 countdown it was day 791. I then noted that it was Kin 197. Remarkable, I thought, 197 is the perfect reverse of 791! Kin 197 I further noted is a galactic activation portal, and is the key that unlocks the fourth book of the Book of Seven Generations, the Red Lunar Earth. Very interesting, I reflected.

791, I then determined, is exactly 7 cycles of 113 days each. 113 is a key prime number, and as a kin equivalent, (Kin 113) it is the Red Solar Skywalker, and represents Quetzalcoatl as Lord of the Dawn. This is because Skywalker is the equivalent of Acatl, the Reed, the sign of Quetzalcoatl’s natal signature, and Solar represents the sun and the dawn. Sura 113 in the Qur’an is entitled, Lord of the Dawn, confirming the Kin 113 designation.

Furthermore, Solar is the 9th tone and Skywalker is the 13th seal. Nine and thirteen are the code numbers of the prophecy of Pacal Votan whose tomb was dedicated 9.13.0.0.0 long count (AD 692). From these facts I intuitively knew I was dealing with a terma – a hidden mind teaching that is meant to be uncovered at precisely the correct moment in time – Kin 197, day 791 to 2012.

Since Kin 197 represents the fourth and central book of the enigmatic Book of the Seven Generations, and the only one that is a Galactic Activation Portal, I knew the terma would be the unfolding of the “contents” of this book, now understood to include the Seven 113-day cycles of the Lord of the Dawn.

2. Galactic spiral density wave and the seven cycles of the Lord of the Dawn
With day 791 we had entered a galactic activation portal: A heightened phase of accelerating transformation of the material plane of our consciousness, defined as the Seven Cycles of the Lord of the Dawn. These seven cycles of 791 days mark the final surge of excitation of a 104,000-tun (102,500-year) pulsation of the galactic spiral density wave. (Note: tun is a harmonic measure of 360 days)

In 1966, two astrophysicists, Chia Lin and Frank Shu, calculated that a galactic spiral density wave pulsing from the center of the galaxy gives both form and motion to the typical “spiral galaxy” (such as our own, the Milky Way). It gives structure by establishing the spiral pinwheel form of the galaxy, and gives motion because over hundreds of millions of years the density wave will have changed positions, creating new spiral arms, while the stars of the older arms will have dimmed or disappeared. The symbol of the Hunab Ku, One Giver of Movement and measure, also associated with the center of the galaxy, is very similar to the definition and image of the galactic density wave. As it pulses, the density wave affects the evolutionary status of existing stars and may even bring new stars into existence.

In the Mayan Factor I put forward the hypothesis that the Mayan calendar is actually a measure for calibrating different beams or density waves. The 13 baktun great cycle of history, for instance, is in fact the measure of a synchronization beam through which our solar system is currently passing. We entered this beam in BC 3113, and leave it in AD 2012. I also put forth that the 13 baktun cycle was just the last fifth of a 26,000-tun (25,625-year) cycle, encompassing the emergence of homo**** sapiens, so that in 2012, the cycle of homo**** sapiens also comes to a point of transformation. The 13 baktuns of history are really only the last fifth of this 26,000-tun cycle.

However, since the 26,000-tun cycle encompasses only 65 baktuns, it is only one quarter of the whole 13:20 frequency measure of 260 units, or a Tzolkin. Therefore the 26,000-tun cycle of homo**** sapiens is but the last quarter of a 104,000-tun (102,500-year) galactic spiral density wave pulsation. This 104,000-tun pulsation encompasses the emergence of man as the fire and tool-maker par excellence. It also characterizes the emergence of mind and consciousness as a factor that alters the environment. The galactic spiral density wave is in continuous pulsation, so we can imagine these 104,000-tun waves pulsing out in regular intervals. Bear in mind that a galaxy such as ours is some 100,000 light years in diameter. Our solar system, known as Velatropa 24, is at the far end of the Orion arm of our galaxy.

The entire 104,000-tun cycle consists of one 260-unit tzolkin module where one kin = one baktun, each baktun being a microwave within the larger wave which builds up in four 26,000-tun increments. The 13 baktuns of history constitute the 20th and final wavespell of the 260-baktun 104,000-tun Tzolkin. This is the phase when the density wave generates the synchronization beam, to create a planetary consciousness (noosphere). The 13th baktun – the last 260th of this great wave pulsation is the super heightened acceleration of the climax of matter (characterized by the globally transforming materialism) and the emergence of planetary consciousness – leading to the noosphere that commences after the 2012 threshold is passed. (See Graphic, Time Map I)

3. The Seven 113-day Cycles of the Lord of the Dawn

Quetzalcoatl he was a prophet
He made his people pure
Said one day he’d come back
Of that you can be sure

The return of Quetzalcoatl – Lord of the Dawn – is a natural self-existing process built into the final 791 days of the “beam” – a 104,000-tun density wave pulsation. The supermental powers of “galactic prophecy” program the beam, according to certain fractal timing principles set to occur or to be triggered at just the right moment. The seven cycles of the Lord of the Dawn build up as ever-greater density zones of solar planetary excitation. As these increase in intensity the destabilization of the material plane also increases, creating a descending curve of material destabilization. Note that 3 days after the 791-day program began, a manifestation of a major pair of sun-spots (number 1117) emerged on the solar surface, certain to trigger solar flares. The day after that the 7.7 magnitude earthquake and tsunami struck off the coast of Sumatra in Indonesia, and two days after that the Merapi volcano in Java erupted. A second volcano, Krakatau between Java and Sumatra erupted just three days after the Merapi volcano went off. And in the Kamchatka peninsula in Siberia, yet another volcano erupted at the same time as the Merapi.

Once these cycles have commenced it is the purpose of the enlightened elements of the planetary consciousness to ride and even be in advance of this accelerating excitation wave, spontaneously generating the call for a galactic intervention to help conclude the biosphere-noosphere transition, now that the human civilization is out of control. The seven cycles are mapped out on the 13- Moon calendar for the three year period, July 26, 2010-July 25, 2013. (See Time Map graphics I and II). These seven cycles are color-coded going from a cool blue building up to hot red (fifth cycle) and then into transformative purple and transcendent violet. This color symbolism also paces the narrative passage of the Lord of the Dawn through these seven stages.

1. First 113-day cycle, blue: “Lord of the Dawn Arises”, Days 791-679, Self-existing 5, Kin 197, 2 Earth (22 October 2010) Galactic 5, Kin 49, 10 Moon (11 February 2011) 5 Moon year

2. Second 113-day cycle, green: “Lord of the Dawn sets in Motion”, Days 678-566, Galactic 6, Kin 50, 11 Dog (12 February 2011) – Crystal 6, Kin 162, 6 Wind (4 June 2011) 5 Moon year

3. Third 113-day cycle, yellow: “Lord of the Dawn Electrifies”, Days 565-453, Crystal 7, Kin 163, 7 Night (5 June 2011) 5 Moon year – Electric 6, Kin 15, 2 Eagle (25 September 2011) 6 Wizard year

4. Fourth 113-day cycle, orange: “Lord of the Dawn Spectralizes his form”, Days 452-340, Electric 7, Kin 16, 3 Warrior (26 September 2011) – Resonant 7, Kin 128, 11 Star (16 January 2012) 6 Wizard year

5. Fifth 113-day cycle, red: “Lord of the Dawn Manifests Cosmic Radiance”, Days 339-227, Resonant 8, Kin 129, 12 Moon (17 January 2012) – Spectral 7, Kin 240, 6 Sun (8 May 2012) 6 Wizard year – Anticipate major 12:60 destabilization during this cycle

6. Sixth 113-day cycle, purple: “Lord of the Dawn Self-transforms”, Days 226-114, Spectral 8, Kin 241, 7 Dragon (9 May 2012) 6 Wizard year – Lunar 7, Kin 93, 2 Skywalker (29 August 2012) 7 Storm year

7. Seventh 113-day cycle, violet: “Lord of the Dawn Self-transcends”, Days 113-1, Lunar 8, Kin 94, 3 Wizard (27 September 2012) – Rhythmic 8, Kin 206, 11 World-bridger (20 December 2012) 7 Storm year – 791-day cycle concludes.

Ground zero: Rhythmic 9, Kin 207, 12 Hand (21 December 2012), 7 Storm year

4. The Magic of the Sacred Numbers
The prophetic date, December 21, 2012 marks the crest of the 104,000 year galactic spiral density wave, an evolutionary shift point of unprecedented magnitude, the shift from mind to supermind and the ascent of spiritual-mental values over materialist ones.

From the day following, 22 December through the end of the 7 Storm year, Day out of Time 2013, there are exactly 216 days. Six is the number of the cube, and as the number 6 cubed (6 x 6 x 6), 216 represents the frequency of the perfect cube. This means that there are exactly six 36-day cycles following 21 December 2012 through the Day out of Time, 2013, Kin 163, 7 Night. The next day, 26 July 2013, Kin 164 is known as Galactic Synchronization, the launching of the Timeship 2013. These six 36-day cycles represent the cubing of the Earth, during which there is a pause before the next 104,000-tun wave begins its next pulsation.

What is meant by the cubing of the Earth is the supermental telepathic creation of a cube of perfection around the Earth, representing the six days of the second creation generating a new heaven and a new earth. This is the perfect moment also for the Galactic Mayan return – the intervention to oversee the peaceful transition from the old order to the new.

Now when we add the numbers a new sequence of seven sacred cycles is revealed that run concurrently with the seven cycles of Quetzalcoatl and the cubing of the Earth:
791 days (7 113-day cycles of Lord of the Dawn)
+ 1 day, 21 December 2012, ground zero
+ 216 days (6 36-day cycles of the cubing of the Earth)
= 1008 days, 1008 = 144 x 7

This means that not only did the day 791, Kin 197 open to a sequence of 7 113-day cycles and the subsequent 6 36-day cube cycles, but it also opened the portal to the Seven 144-day cycles of the Return of Sacred Power.

Graphic Time Map III maps out the three sets of cycles. Just as the first day of the seven cycles of the Lord of the Dawn initiate the descending curve of material destabilization due to exponential increase of intensity of the climax of a 104,000-tun galactic density pulsation; this day also inaugurates an ascending harmonic curve of spiritual re-integration. This is brought about by an exponentially increasing focused intention to spiritually and collectively awaken the noosphere as a mental field of global coherence. So the seven 144-day cycles, Return of Sacred Power, are an index of the increase of spiritual energy activating the noosphere concurrent with the final excitation surge of the beam resulting in the destabilization of the material plane.

In the concurrent graphing of the cycles, note when the ascending curve supersedes the descending curve. Also note that 21 December 2012 is the 792nd day of the 144-day cycles, the midpoint of the sixth cycle, and that 792 = 11 x 72. Following that are the six 36-day cycles of the cubing of the Earth which comprise the second half of the sixth 144-day cycle and the entirety of the seventh, concluding on the Day out of Time 2013, when final preparations for the launching of Timeship Earth 2013 and full galactic synchronization will be made for the following day. The 216-day cube cycle represents a galactic program pause between pulsations of the 104,000-tun (102,500-year) wave.

7. Seven Last Moons 13 Baktuns, Moon out of Time, Seven Mystic Moons to the launching of Timeship Earth 2013
In the 20 Tablets of the Law of Time and the 7:7::7:7 practices of the synchronic order there are definitions of the Seven Last moons of the 13 baktuns, the Moon out of Time, and the seven Mystic moons. These are derived from the 20 Tablets of the Law of Time which defines a cycle of 208 Moons or 832 weeks to accommodate the 832 13-stage permutations of the 64 DNA codons (I Ching hexagrams) – 64 x 13 = 832 = 16 x 52.

The 832 permutations are exactly the same as the number of weeks in the sixteen-year cycle from July 26, 1997 through July 25, 2013. Each codon runs its 13 permutations through one of the 64 quarters that occur during these sixteen years. Each week a codon is cubed, for each of six days of the week, one line of the six-line codons is placed on one of six sides of the cube, on the seventh day the codon is cubed, and radiated out telepathically as a purified and perfected genetic codon, or specific life signature.

The 832 weeks also divide into 208 moons, coded in sequence from Kin 1 to Kin 208. The last seven moons leading up to the Rhythmic Moon of 2012, the closing of the cycle, are defined as the last seven moons of the 13 Baktuns. These are the Moons coded to Kin 194-200. These are the same kin that code the prophetic cycle of the Book of the Seven Generations. These seven moons are seen as the culmination of the prophecy cycle, not only of the Maya, but of all prophecy cycles, and define a spiritually heightened time.

The Rhythmic Moon of 2012, on the 9th day of which the cycle formally closes – Ground Zero, 21-12-2012 – is referred to as the Moon out of Time in anticipation of the cessation of time as we know it. Following that from the Resonant to the Cosmic Moons of 2013, 7 Storm year, are known as the seven mystic moons to the launching of Timeship Earth 2013. As we have now seen, these seven moons occur altogether within the 216-day cycle of the cubing of the Earth, during the spiral density wave pause before another pulsation begins.

Why Lord of the Dawn Quetzalcoatl?
Lord of the Dawn Quetzalcoatl, prophet and mythic complex of ancient Mexico is the patron saint or tutelary deity of the Harmonic Convergence. The Harmonic Convergence of 1987 was in commemoration of the completion of his prophecy of 13 Heavens and 9 Hells, and was celebrated worldwide as a global peace meditation.

One writer refers to Quetzalcoatl as the magician par excellence, “He who knows the secrets of all enchantments.” He is a culture hero and bringer of the knowledge of astronomy, mathematics and the calendar. He is the one who initiates man into the mysteries of the interior life. He is often depicted as a plumed serpent, representing the marriage of heaven and earth. He is an alchemical cipher of the cycles and stages of transformation. He is associated with Venus and its synodic cycles of appearance, disappearance and reappearance as the morning and evening star.

“It is said when he burned, his ashes were at once raised up and that all the rare birds appeared when Quetzalcoatl died, for which they all call him the Lord of Dawn. They say that when he died Dawn did not appear for four days, because he had gone to dwell among the dead. And then in four days he provided himself with arrows (rays of light), for which reason in eight days there appeared the Great Star called Quetzalcoatl, and they add that he was an enthroned Lord.” (Annals of Cuauhtitlan)

As a prophet he is known as Ce Acatl Topiltzin Quetzalcoatl – Our Lord One Reed Quetzalcoatl. He was born in the Christian year 947 in Amatlan in the present state of Morelos, Mexico. He was known as a model king of peace and promoter of the arts and culture, who was opposed to human sacrifice, and built his palaces in the city of Tula in the archetypal memory of the original Tollan, the city of the distant star born. After many adventures and wanderings, he departed on a raft of serpents on the eastern sea in the Christian year 999, traveling toward the dawn, vowing he would return on the year sacred to him, the year One Reed in the Nahuatl tradition, the year and day of his birth (1 Reed = 1 Skywalker, Kin 53). In the Mexica tradition this year last occurred in 1987, exactly 1040 years or 20 52 year cycles after his birth in 947.

In the Nahuatl tradition, Quetzalcoatl is regarded as a multiple avatar and the first human to discover and convert himself into a “god”, i.e., to attain and realize his divine nature. Quetzalcoatl taught that human greatness grows out of the awareness of spiritual order. The era of Quetzalcoatl is that of the advent of the soul, the unifying center which is the essence of all religious thought.

Quetzalcoatl gave three principle counsels or advices:

1. Always be aware that God is ever-present; don’t despair or become cowardly, but remain humble in your heart and love God.

2. Be at peace with everybody, regardless.

3. Don’t waste your time. You have been given a precious opportunity in this earthly life; use it wisely and creatively.

As part of the meaning of the Harmonic Convergence of 1987, the return of Quetzalcoatl signifies the awakening of consciousness during the 26-year Harmonic Convergence prophecy cycle, 1987-2013. In this regard, Quetzalcoatl is the awakened rainbow consciousness that characterizes the self-luminous entry into the noosphere. This is the meaning of the seven cycles of the Lord of Dawn and the Seven 144-day Cycles, Return of Sacred Power.

Sura 113, Lord of the Dawn
In the Name of God most gracious, most merciful!
113.1 Say, “I seek refuge with the Lord of the Dawn.
113.2 “From the mischief of the created things.
113.3 “From the mischief of darkness as it spreads over things.
113.4 “From the mischief of those who practice secret arts as they blow into knots.
113.5 “And from the mischief of the envious one as he practices envy”
(This sura is essentially a prayer for protection in dark times. Lord of the Dawn in this context is a designation for Allah/God).

Might we have to do this to an admin to get more faves?

I don't either, bucky...  that song is about racism.

Bob Dylan is one of your favorites, I think.


But thanks for stopping by.


Actually the song is about war and the ones sitting behind their desks and building the "big guns"  then sending young kids out and defend their country while these whie collared people have just played a game with lifes

I think they can easily change the number to a greater number than 250, it's a change in the code.. the BS they fed us about slowing down the database and page loading times, is just that... after they limited the fav's, I didn't see a increase in speed..

That would be because any increase in page load speed gained by limiting favorites was counteracted by the constant need to run the subroutines managing favorites.

The Remington 788 is an inexpensive yet accurate hunting rifle developed by the Remington Arms Company to compete with other gun companies' less expensive rifles and marketed alongside their more expensive Model 700 line. The 788 utilizes a single-column detachable magazine holding 3 rounds. A .22 rimfire model was also produced known as the 580, 581, or 582 depending on its method of feed. A target version of the .22 caliber 58x series, the 540X, was used by the US Military<sup id="cite_ref-0" class="reference"> [1]</sup> as a training rifle and later disposed through the Civilian Marksmanship Program.

Overview

The distinguishing feature of the 788 is its rear-lugged bolt. The bolt has 9 lugs in three rows of three lugs each. They lock into the receiver behind the magazine well. Because of this design, the bolt handle lifts only 60 degrees on opening giving more clearance for scopes compared to the 90 degrees required for the Model 700 and other two-lugged bolts. The bolt travel is also reduced because of the rear lugs. The receiver also has a small ejection port and no bolt lug raceways, making the receiver stiffer than a Remington 700, although it is the same outside diameter.

The 788 was made in many calibers up to the length of the 6 mm Remington. Magazines in this caliber are extremely rare. Most common calibers encountered are .308 and .243, but less common bolt-action calibers are available such as .222 .30-30 Winchester and .44 magnum.<sup id="cite_ref-788history_1-0" class="reference"> [2]</sup> These rifles differed slightly in the design of the magazine and the bolt. The front of these bolts did not rotate.

Remington made extensive use of 'screw-machines' in the manufacture of this rifle. The 788 was discontinued in the 1980s. In its used form, the 788 retains a cult following for its accuracy, despite several serious design flaws. Such as the safety, it is notorious for slipping up and making the firearm unfit for safe use. Because this rifle is no longer in production, replacement parts and expensive and difficult to find. The Remington 700 is still in production and is used (with variants) as a military sniper rifle. <sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"> [3]</sup> <sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"> [4]</sup> <sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"> [5]</sup> <sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"> [6]</sup>

Day 788.  Famous image of a lone student standing in front of a huge and formidable tank cannon barrel.   How'd that work out again?

Any... (read and enjoy the Katmandu Post) Day.. Now.

Day 789.  Cruel treatment makes men do what they must.  They sailed to Pitcairn Island, married natives and ended up very much closer than we are to Katmandu.  The Shangri-la for the out of touch.

Which means, of course, that all the other talk by the admins about 'fighting to get the limit raised' was a load of crap.

It most certainly was not. They were able to add an additional 100, they weren't in the past.
