Kill Your Heroes
Well I met an old man dying on a train
No more destination, no more pain
Well he said one thing, before I graduate
“Never let your fear decide your fate”I say kill your heroes and fly, fly, baby don’t cry.
No need to worry cuz everybody will die.
Every day we just go, go, baby don’t go.
Don’t you worry they love you more than you know.
Funeral Monologue from Synecdoche, New York
We’re All Made of Star Stuff
When I look up at the night sky and I know that we are part of this universe, we are in this universe. But perhaps more important than both of those facts is that the universe is in us.
Know Speak
Those who know do not speak.
Those who speak do not know.
Handling NTFS Drives in OSX
Was having problems swapping an external hard drive between Windows 7 and Mac OSX. NTFS is a proprietary Microsoft format. Here’s how to solve the problem:
- Get MacFUSE and install on OSX: http://code.google.com/p/macfuse/
- Get NTFS-3G and install on OSX: http://www.tuxera.com/community/ntfs-3g-download/
There is no app to run since OSX operating system is updated directly. You will also be able to format external drives to NTFS after the install is complete in OSX Disk Utility. You can uninstall MacFUSE or NTFS-3G from System Preferences.
HTTP Header for JSON
To print JSON for consumption by AJAX or other web services, change the HTTP headers before output:
<?php header( 'Content-type: application/json' ); echo json_encode( $json ); ?>

Death of Deity, Birth of God
- Love unites and promotes humanity. This is the truth about the universal vibrational harmony put forth by all the prophets, even the Deceived.
- The universe is God. Your environment is God. You are God. Acquiring knowledge and understanding about your universe, your environment, yourself—these bring you closer to God.
- There is no deity, there is no man-god. God is an experience, not a deity. Every moment of your experience is eternal, you are with God always.
- There is no afterlife. Belief in afterlife is immoral and is perpetuated by the Deceived. It encourages disassociation from your life now and your environment now, from the true God.
- Life is violent, death is inevitable. You must accept it and never fear it. Violence and death create change. Change is the only constant.
- Your initial state of being is darkness. Practice discipline and self-awareness to overcome your animal nature. Find the light. Go into the light. Practice meditation to access the universal vibration of harmony. Share love with the other hairless monkeys. Good things will happen.
