  • Principia Discordia.Pdf
    RAW Intro | Omar Intro | Title Page | Index | Version Notes | INTRODUCTION You hold in your hands one of the Great Books of our century fnord. Some Great Books are recognized at once with a fusillade of critical huzzahs and gonfolons, like Joyce’s Ulysses. Others appear almost furtively and are only discovered 50 years later, like Moby Dick or Mendel’s great essay on genetics. The Principia Discordia entered our space-time continuum almost as unobtrusively as a cat-burglar creeping over a windowsill. In 1968, virtually nobody had heard of this wonderful book. In 1970, hundreds of people from coast to coast were talking about it and asking the identity of the mysterious author, Malaclypse the Younger. Rumors swept across the continent, from New York to Los Angeles, from Seattle to St. Joe. Malaclypse was actually Alan Watts, one heard. No, said another legend – the Principia was actually the work of the Sufi Order. A third, very intriguing myth held that Malaclypse was a pen-name for Richard M. Nixon, who had allegedly composed the Principia during a few moments of lucidity. I enjoyed each of these yarns and did my part to help spread them. I was also careful never to contradict the occasional rumors that I had actually written the whole thing myself during an acid trip. The legendry, the mystery, the cult grew very slowly. By the mid- 1970’s, thousands of people, some as far off as Hong Kong and Australia, were talking about the Principia, and since the original was out of print by then, xerox copies were beginning to circulate here and there.

Terrorist events this past week focused on a vehicular terrorist attack at an IDF base near Al-Ram (south of Ramallah), carried out with a tractor. IDF soldiers shot and killed the terrorist driving it. Fatah and Hamas praised the attack, which was part of the popular resistance. So far the Palestinian Authority (PA) has not issued a statement regarding the attack. Ismail Haniya, head of the de-facto Hamas administration in the Gaza Strip, gave a speech praising the terrorists who carried out the recent attacks in Judea and Samaria. He called for a "intifada of the masses," saying that the "armed resistance" should not be relinquished as a means of "liberating Palestine." 174-13 2 The Situation in Israel's South IDF Uncovers an IED on the Gaza Strip Border On October 21, 2013, an IDF force carrying out a routine patrol along the Gaza Strip border in the region of Kissufim in the central Gaza Strip uncovered a large IED near the security fence. It was defused by the IDF. There were no casualties and no damage was reported (IDF spokesman, October 21, 2013). Rocket Fire This past week no rocket hits were identified in Israeli territory.

At that time the late James Burnett was especially helpful in providing dates for the L’Oiseau-Lyre recordings that he produced. More information was obtained from additional paperwork in association with Richard Alston for his book published to celebrate the conductor’s 70 th birthday in 1997. John Hunt’s most valuable discography devoted to the Staatskapelle Dresden was again helpful. Further updating has been undertaken in addition to the generous assistance of Philip Stuart via his LSO discography which he compiled for the Orchestra’s centenary in 2004 and has kept updated. Inevitably there are a number of missing credits for producers and engineers in the earliest years as these facts no longer survive. Additionally some exact dates have not been tracked down.

  • What Happened to the International Skyride?
    What Happened To The International Skyride? By Barbara Zaragoza In 1959, forty-year-old entrepreneur Allen Parkinson set out to construct a privately funded International Skyride to cross the international border from San Ysidro into Tijuana. He imagined that an aerial transport system would ease automobile congestion at the U.S.-Mexico border and encourage more people to travel to Baja California. His never-realized plans got a hearing from U.S. Congressman Robert “Bob” Wilson and remain in the latter’s collection of papers at San Diego State University. They provide some insight into the way businessmen and politicians conceptualized the border in the middle of the twentieth century.1 Why a Skyride? The idea to build an aerial transport system was original only in that the ride would cross an international border. Passenger-carrying ropeways had existed for centuries. Engineer Wilhelm Albert’s invention of the twisted steel cable in the 1830s helped to advance the technology View from the U.S. side of the border looking into Tijuana. necessary for lifting and A double line of vehicles wait to cross the Tijuana bridge, hoisting tramways.
