· PYITE (AtlPsy)
Pyite is an Atlanta native with more than 4 years of DJing

psytrance scene, he is eager to contribute to the rapidly
growing Atlanta scene. His style varies from funky morning
sets to dark, mind-bending stomp-a-thons.

· PUSKARA (AtlPsy/Eschatone)
One of Atlanta's secret weapons is ready to be unleashed on
unsuspecting trancers foolish enough to wander onto the floor
unaware. Holding to a higher standard of musical quality and
composition in his track selection which results in a fuller punchier
set. Let the music speak for itself...

· MICHAEL CURRAN (AtlPsy/T.O.U.C.H. Samadhi)
A dj of over 10 years, Michael has performed at numerous indoor
& outdoor events throughout the southeast. As a resident of Asheville
NC's Touch Samadhi psytrance collective, Michael has earned a
reputation for well-programmed sets that span the spectrum from
the dark and dirty to full-on funk and all points in between.

· MOKSA (AtlPsy/T.O.U.C.H. Samadhi)
Emerging out of the mist, Moksa delivers pounding psychedelic
jolts that are irresistible foot stompers. It's this cloud of mystery

Poor, sick, aged left in the lurch
Leonard Witt - For the Journal-Constitution
Thursday, September 1, 2005

Each
time you hear a federal, state or city official explain what he or she
is doing to help New Orleans, consider the opening paragraphs of a July
24 story in the New Orleans Times-Picayune.

"City, state and
federal emergency officials are preparing to give the poorest of New
Orleans' poor a historically blunt message: In the event of a major
hurricane, you're on your own."

The story continues:

"In
scripted appearances being recorded now, officials such as Mayor Ray
Nagin, local Red Cross Executive Director Kay Wilkins and City Council
President Oliver Thomas drive home the word that the city does not have
the resources to move out of harm's way an estimated 134,000 people
without transportation."

The officials made those statements
fully knowing that those 134,000 people were very likely to end up in
dire circumstances or even die.

Here is what National Geographic
magazine wrote in an article published in October 2004 about a possible
hurricane scenario for New Orleans:

"The Federal Emergency
Management Agency lists a hurricane strike on New Orleans as one of the
most dire threats to the nation, up there with a large earthquake in
California or a terrorist attack on New York City. Even the Red Cross
no longer opens hurricane shelters in the city, claiming the risk to
its workers is too great."

In that article National Geographic
predicted with eerie accuracy that more than a million people would
evacuate, but some 200,000 would remain, including "the carless, the
homeless, the aged and infirm."

The New Orleans Times-Picayune ran its own series in 2002 in which it wrote:

"If
enough water from Lake Pontchartrain topped the levee system along its
south shore, the result would be apocalyptic. Whoever remained in the
city would be at grave risk. According to the American Red Cross, a
likely death toll would be between 25,000 and 100,000 people, dwarfing
estimated death tolls for other natural disasters and all but the most
nightmarish potential terrorist attacks. Tens of thousands more would
be stranded on rooftops and high ground, awaiting rescue that could
take days or longer. They would face thirst, hunger and exposure to
toxic chemicals."

And yet apparently there was no emergency plan and no resources to evacuate "the carless, the homeless, the aged and infirm."

In
this era when we are a nation at risk of terrorism and natural
disasters, we can only hope that what is happening in New Orleans is
not built into the fabric of our national homeland security policy. We
should provide security for everyone, including the poor, aged and
infirm.

We have the resources. On Wednesday, it seems FEMA found
475 buses to help with the belated evacuation effort. Unfortunately,
when it comes to looking after the carless, homeless, the aged and
infirm in our country, we --- in our quest to become an ownership
society --- seemed to have allowed our good senses, good will and
compassion to go on vacation.

Eros Society on Tribes.net

2005-08-31T16:51:35Z

Hi!

I started a Eros Society Tribe on Tribe.net...I need 2 more people with Tribe accounts to join it so that it will show up in the search engine and lists. You can find the tribe right now by going to my tribe.net account and then clicking on it from my lists of tribes I am a member of.

I love this service, it is like craigslist/lj and myspace married on the westcoast and had a hip baby.

Oz knows about the Tribe and is down with it, it is a good way to spread the word to more like minded people.

Thank you,

Blue

Jophiel

So you need Healing (50%), Knowledge (80%), Inspiration (40%), and Strength (62%)?

Archangel Jophiel
is the Angel of endurance, freedom of thought, wisdom, truth, beauty,
and illumination of the mind and spirit. He assists us in absorbing
intricate information and in dealing with complex matters, and guides
us along our aspired spiritual path to enlightenment.

Jophiel, inclined to help us see and maintain beauty in life, is
the Patron Angel of artists and helps them in every step towards the
completion of their work. Also, he loves those using inventions,
discoveries, or revolutionary ideas for the greater good of humanity,
and gives them special support, for as well-meant as the efforts of a
pioneer often are, success will seldom come without doubt and
humiliation.

Jophiel shares with us his wisdom and selfless patience that
will strengthen us at times when we are close to resignation, and
encourages those who are wishing to make a change that seems impossible
to do to keep going. He teaches that everything can be made possible.

Striving and struggling souls, continuously searching for
solutions and answers will find the strong and unshakable support they
need in Jophiel, which goes for spiritual matters as well as earthly
problems calling for solutions. He comforts those that were denigrated
and abandoned, unwearyingly staying by their side to light their way
and lead them out of hopelessness and despair. Jophiel is also
concerned in beautifying the planet by cleansing it of pollution and
lends his assistance to those engaging in the vital mission of helping
our environment.

A Bit of Trivia:

Jophiel is one of the two Angels assisting Michael in battle, the other being Zadkiel. Just like Gabriel and Ariel, Jophiel is sometimes referred to as female.

Jophiel - Michael - Israfel - Raziel - Ariel - Uriel - Gabriel - Raphael - Zadkiel - Jeremiel

My test tracked 4 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender:

You scored higher than 58% on Healing
You scored higher than 92% on Knowledge
You scored higher than 42% on Inspiration
You scored higher than 76% on Strength

more info on the Utah incident, taken from the Pow Wow list with permission

2005-08-23T17:15:01Z

Hi,

I helped write the article at Wikinews - according to the police, the
promoter had a permit with the local health department, but did not
have a mass gathering permit. The promoter states that he did have the
permit, and that when he produced it to the cops, they tore it up in
front of them. As someone else said, there are two sides to the story.
In any case, the promoter spent thousands of dollars on permits, they
had EMTs and security, trash cans, and portajohns. It certainly wasn't
a fly-by-night operation.

Furthermore, the statute for the supposed permit that was needed reads as thus:

13-4-2-1. Required.

No person shall permit, maintain, promote, conduct, advertise, act as
entrepreneur, undertake, organize, manage, or sell or give tickets to
an actual or reasonably anticipated assembly of two hundred fifty or
more people which continues or can reasonably be expected to continue
for twelve (12) or more consecutive hours, whether on public or
private property unless a license to hold the assembly has first been
issued by the County Commissioners.

This A. is obvious anti-rave legislation and B. doesn't have a
snowball's chance in hell of standing up in court, and I will explain
why. In order to get the permit, one must first contract
Porta-potties, dumpsters, medical professionals, etc. All of which
comes under "promote, conduct, advertise, act as entrepreneur,
undertake, organize, manage." clause. Meaning that in order to get the
permit under this ordinance, you must first violate it.

I've been following this all night,
and I've been in touch with the Utah rave scene, including the DJs and
some of the people in the video. I can answer any questions you have
on it.

REPOST from noctifer DnB show shut down in SLC facist style...

2005-08-22T21:04:34Z

Please read if you value freedom. I am reposting with both a link and a cut and paste of his entire post. This made me ill and very very sad. rick_day I know this will interest you greatly.

no words...

Guys, I know I could usually care less if people read my posts or not -
especially if they have any political twinge to them, but READ THIS ONE.

Here is the original story on datavein

here it is reposted by me in case anything happens to that post:

"There
was a big jungle/dnb party in Salt Lake City, Utah this weekend that
got raided with guys in combat fatigues. They used tazers, attack dogs,
physical violence, tear gas, everything. People had machine guns
pressed to their heads. The promoters had gone out of their way to do
this party legit with permits, fees, security staff, drug searches,
etcetera, but none of that mattered.

There is plenty of word going round on the utah messagebaord: www.utrave.org

Knick of Evol Intent was there. Here is his account of what happened:
http://www.404audio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=14814

Though they confiscated most of the cameras to cover their tracks, here is some video footage that got loose:

How can we teach anyone to hate someone else?

"I am the girl kicked out of her home because I confided in my mother that I am a lesbian.

I am the prostitute working the streets because nobody will hire a transsexual woman.

I am the sister who holds her gay brother tight through the painful, tear-filled nights.

We are the parents who buried our daughter long before her time.

I am the man who died alone in the hospital because they would not let my partner of twenty-seven years into the room.

I am the foster child who wakes up with nightmares of being taken away from the two fathers who are the only loving family I have ever had. I wish they could adopt me.

I am one of the lucky ones, I guess. I survived the attack that left me in a coma for three weeks, and in another year I will probably be able to walk again.

I am not one of the lucky ones. I killed myself just weeks before graduating high school. It was simply too much to bear.

We are the couple who had the realtor hang up on us when she found out we wanted to rent a one-bedroom for two men.

I am the person who never knows which bathroom I should use if I want to avoid getting the management called on me.

I am the mother who is not allowed to even visit the children I bore, nursed, and raised. The court says I am an unfit mother because I now live with another woman.

I am the domestic-violence survivor who found the support system grow suddenly cold and distant when they found out my abusive partner is also a woman.

I am the domestic-violence survivor who has no support system to turn to because I am male.

I am the father who has never hugged his son because I grew up afraid to show affection to other men.

I am the home-economics teacher who always wanted to teach gym until someone told me that only lesbians do that.

I am the man who died when the paramedics stopped treating me as soon as they realized I was transsexual.

I am the person who feels guilty because I think I could be a much better person if I didn’t have to always deal with society hating me.

I am the man who stopped attending church, not because I don't believe, but because they closed their doors to my kind.

I am the person who has to hide what this world needs most, love.

Repost this if you believe homophobia is wrong."

Aloe Vera Plant EMERGENCY!

2005-08-01T19:09:16Z

I need help stat to save a almost or rather dead magical aloe vera plant or what is left of it that was left in my care, you see I recieved a large rotten plant with a tiny bit in the middle still green. The rot was sweet smelling and awful, like cemetary flowers, so I started pulling it away and I realized the base of the only green part was cut through with rot!

is there anyway to force it to root?

help help help save the magical plant...it was given to a friend by his teacher.

edit: from my research it appears once the root dies the plant does as well.....

kinda cute even for yahoo....
