EGGS BENEDICT
The People came to honor Ratz
who had come to speak of this and that
They had to muffle silent laughs
when he lost his mitre and his staff
The man was not jolly, but he was affable
As he gave his speech, he appeared unflappable
No anarchist did commit the crime
His Holiness lives in a nursery rhyme
Though the egg was broken, and scrambled the yoke
All that happens, is a cosmic joke
that comes from Above to Italy, wittily
But respect the difference of Church and State
lest there could befall a less amusing fate
And remember that the mitre is not a crown
It would be just as easy, to bring a King down

Pope falls on way to Mass as woman rushes at him
Posted on Fri, Dec. 25, 2009
VATICAN CITY - A woman jumped the barriers in
St. Peter's Basilica and knocked down Pope Benedict
XVI as he walked down the main aisle to begin
Christmas Eve Mass yesterday.
Benedict lost his miter and his staff in the fall.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humpty_Dumpty
In Sixteen Hundred and Forty-Eight
When England suffered the pains of state
The Roundheads lay siege to Colchester town
Where the king's men still fought for the crown
There One-Eyed Thompson stood on the wall
A gunner of deadliest aim of all
From St. Mary's Tower his cannon he fired
Humpty-Dumpty was its name
Another theory posits Humpty Dumpty referring to King Richard III
of England,[6] Shakespeare's hunchbacked Egg, the "Wall"
being either the name of his horse (called "White Surrey"
in Shakespeare's play) or a reference to the supporters
who deserted him. During the battle of Bosworth Field,
Richard fell off his steed and was said to have been
"hacked into pieces". (Though the play depicts Richard as
a hunchback, other historical sources suggest that he was not.)

Since that times it has possible that the Party has grown

back some disgruntled members who left in the wake
of Gus Hall's heavy handed way of maintaining control
after the Soviet Union collapsed.
It's Xmas morning here in Oz and I thought I would wish all
the comrades on this list a sincere seasonal greeting
I have been pleasantly surprised at how I have managed to avoid
any of the deeply offensive religious hokum that normally pours
over one at this time of the year.

Speaking with the Tongues of Angels: Fyodor Dostoevsky, 1821-1881
Before Starbucks took over the world, I spent my youth
in the kind of coffee shops that played Ella Fitzgerald,
talking over the finer points of existential angst with my cohorts.
Dostoevsky's work, filled with all the big questions of God
and madness and free will and exile, was pressing stuff.
So pressing, indeed, that we stayed up half the night at
Chez Cappuccino, mulling over Notes from the Underground.
You couldn't be literary; you couldn't be a writer, if you didn't
dissect every minutiae of meaning (or meaninglessness, as it were)
from the Russian writers
. . .
It's hard to say whether hip-hop mavericks like Eminem or Biggie
Smalls ever heard of Vachel Lindsay, but this peculiar and
passionate poet foreshadowed hip-hop, spoken word, slam and dub
poetry. He told his mentor Yeats that he was hoping to bring
ancient Greek musical qualities like singing and chanting
into his work
. . .
You have to decide who you're going to believe-this government .

Either you believe Pastor Alamo or the homosexual Pope.

What Is Mental Illness?
James Baxter
(Lewis Carroll Through the Looking Glass
'When I use a word.' Humpty Dumpty said, in a rather scornful tone,
'it means just what I choose it to mean - neither more nor less.'
'The question is,' said Alice, 'whether you can make words mean
so many different things.'
'The question is,' said Humpty Dumpty,
'which is to be master - that's all.'
Mostly, we react to such events in ways that enable us to cope
without becoming 'ill'. Such reactions as headaches, depression,
anxiety, listlessness, shortness of temper and nightmares
may be warnings that we need to detach ourselves from the situation
in order to determine what is really troubling us and the best way
of dealing with it. But, if too many adverse events occur within
a limited period or if we are ill-prepared for them, they tend
to create an 'information overload' that swamps our mental capacity.
Our minds become 'unbalanced'.

BALANCING SKILL GAME - Patent 3700234

www.freepatentsonline.com/3700234.h...
United States Patent 3700234
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
A. Field of the Invention
This invention relates to games of skill and in particular
to a balancing game.
B. Prior Art
Games are known in which weights or other pieces are placed on
a surface of an object by the players until the surface tilts
to a predetermined degree at which time the winner is declared.
One such game involves a platform or board which is pivotally
supported at each end and is locked into a horizontal position
at the beginning of the game. The players place a certain number
of pieces on it while so locked. Then the lock is released
and if the board tilts toward one of the players he is
declared the winner.
Another balancing game involves a hemispheric body having
a vertical rod extending upward from the center of its flat
horizontal surface. At the top end of the rod a cup is mounted
for holding a loose object such as a Humpty-Dumpty representation.
The players put pieces on the flat surface until the addition
of one piece by a player causes the rod to tilt so much
that Humpty Dumpty comes tumbling down. That player is
declared the winner.
In all known games, the object is to go from a balanced
to a predetermined unbalanced condition. Furthermore, in known games
the placement of the object in attempting to bring about the
unbalanced condition does not require a considerable amount
of skill and thought. The present invention, in which a
highly-sensitive, bubble-level is used and in which the device
is brought from an unbalanced condition to a balanced condition,
affords more mental exercise and test of manual dexterity
than such prior devices.
BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The game device has a partially spherical portion attached
at the center of the lower surface of a disc-like playing-piece
supporting portion. A level such as a bubble level is mounted
at the center of the upper surface of said piece-support portion.
At the beginning of the game when no pieces are set on said
upper surface, the supporting portion will be somewhat tilted
away from the horizontal. The players set playing pieces
on the upper surface in an attempt to bring the bubble
to the true level position, the one whose piece finally
produces this result being declared the winner.

Random thoughts on random subjects
v is a Gaussian random variable of zero mean, unit variance

Now if you had the two eyes on the same side of the nose,
But Humpty Dumpty only shut his eyes and said
I think that property dualism of the Chalmersian sort,
as I understand it, and weak agnosticism with respect
to belief in God are very similar positions in their
respective fields in that both imply that our current
conceptual underpinnings do not allow us to answer s
ome questions: the very existence of phenomenal stuff
and its perfect correlation with physical stuff
in the one case, and the existence of God in the other,
respectively
In this paper, Hyvarinen and Oja show that using a
general Hebbian-like learning rule given in generic form by:
E{Si x f(Si)- f'(Si)} > 0 (resp. < 0)
is satisfied. Here f can be an arbitrary non-linear function,
different choices for f corresponding to different contrast
functions that are being maximized. So, I guess in this way,
they generalize the idea of finding ICs by kurtosis maximization,
since the latter corresponds to the case where the contrast
function is a fourth-order polynomial.

that it would hardly be civil to stay. So she got up,
