Storck’s translation – ( Schubert’s Ave Maria lyrics ) Ave Maria! Jungfrau mild, Erhöre einer Jungfrau Flehen, Aus diesem Felsen starr und wild Soll mein Gebet zu dir hinwehen. Wir schlafen sicher bis zum Morgen, Ob Menschen noch so grausam sind. O Jungfrau, sieh der Jungfrau Sorgen, O Mutter, hör ein bittend Kind! Ave Maria! Ave Maria! Unbefleckt! Wenn wir auf diesen Fels hinsinken Zum Schlaf, und uns dein Schutz bedeckt Wird weich der harte Fels uns dünken. Du lächelst, Rosendüfte wehen In dieser dumpfen Felsenkluft, O Mutter, höre Kindes Flehen, O Jungfrau, eine Jungfrau ruft! Ave Maria! Ave Maria! Reine Magd! Der Erde und der Luft Dämonen, Von deines Auges Huld verjagt, Sie können hier nicht bei uns wohnen, Wir woll’n uns still dem Schicksal beugen, Da uns dein heil’ger Trost anweht; Der Jungfrau wolle hold dich neigen, Dem Kind, das für den Vater fleht. Ave Maria!
[2]
Walter Scott’s Original
from “The Lady of the Lake”
Ave Maria! maiden mild!
Listen to a maiden’s prayer!
Thou canst hear though from the wild,
Thou canst save amid despair.
Safe may we sleep beneath thy care,
Though banish’d, outcast and reviled -
Maiden! hear a maiden’s prayer;
Mother, hear a suppliant child!
Ave Maria!
Ave Maria! undefiled!
The flinty couch we now must share
Shall seem this down of eider piled,
If thy protection hover there.
The murky cavern’s heavy air
Shall breathe of balm if thou hast smiled;
Then, Maiden! hear a maiden’s prayer;
Mother, list a suppliant child!
Ave Maria!
Ave Maria! stainless styled!
Foul demons of the earth and air,
From this their wonted haunt exiled,
Shall flee before thy presence fair.
We bow us to our lot of care,
Beneath thy guidance reconciled;
Hear for a maid a maiden’s prayer,
And for a father hear a child!
Ave Maria!

The State of Fundamental (Dis)Union Address ( The Americas )∞.
In Uncategorized on December 15, 2009 at 9:21 pm- INDEFINITE TERMINATION MEMO FOR THE PROJECT “WEST PHILADELPHIA GREENING CORPORATION” AND DISSOLUTION OF VOLUNTARY/SPECULATIVE “INVOLVEES” – ( OSLO/DEC. 15-09 ) Courtesy of The OSLO-PHILADELPHIA Institute ( INDEFINITE AND CONDITIONAL )

GENERAL ADDRESS : A RATIONALE FOR TERMINATION OF SOUND INITIATIVE FOR 2010
Greetings Ladies and Gentlemen ( for the last time ) !
It is Clear to Me that No one appears to have the slightest interest in pursuing what remains to be the impossible ideal of a collaborative and sufficiently functional avenue via which collateralization can be pursued in a transparent, localized, and positive manner of consonance. Certainly, given the energies, sincerity, supreme dedication, and amount of Goodwill directed to this project through a larger span of time, this claim is not a “Speculation”. Gauging the similar traits at this time in other projects, other initiatives, and other efforts in Americas, the eery resemblances they share at the actual level and individual level continue to astound any fundamental Ideal, and grossly marginalises Facilitative and Entrepreneurial Will.
As Prime Proponent, I present this to all that are discerning in Light of how the venture and approach were structured, as Your Ramifying and Final “SILENT CONSENSUS”. Thank God, I have been fortunate enough to remain unmoved, by the mere appearances of emails sent to me even in the past few weeks by various personalities herein addressed in general terms under presumptions and “weights” of their solicitious “Wisdom” – and the liberally generated testament of ‘Sensible Rectitude’ presented with its “supreme reasoning” as ultimately to serve as a ” Silent Affidavit” for non-involvement with an almost pathological aversion to what continues to be perceived as some inner intangible “Risk”. The preferences cited for actual Non-Involvement where they have been presented would appear vastly absurd in Light of the comprehensive and ramifying “Risk” that in these accelerating times none would be able to avert by merely insulating themselves with such cold-feet. Doing so unites them with their imaginary apparitions! Yet, in Freewill and the Dignity of Un-Hypocritical Freedom, We Honor even this Choice.
Meanwhile, the American Reinvestment Act of 2009, makes it technically feasible to finance precisely such motivations and enterprises, and a substantial purchasing power avenue for the “American Peoples” will by the virtue of its complacence and venality, continue to be freely directed towards existing corporations none of which are in Truth inclined to anything genuinely valuable to Society no more at least than the Organic Individual, and like many persons addressed here, the Legal Individuals are inclined to pursue only what they imagine to be valuable for themselves. The fact that the Self-Sabotage in this sense is mutually unified, in Public and Private sectors, should not be a symbol of National Consolation. Quite the Contrary!
The Directive for a West Philadelphia Greening Corporation, the persons addressed herein with Sincerity and with Generosity, proves iconic merely for ramifying its Americanness in the realms of attitude in contrast to its proposed Ideal.
The ideas thwarting the directive are not Material, but Spiritual. The possibility not being manifested is not on account of any “Conspiracy” that everyone appears to find some ridiculous comfort in pursuing these days as a means of continuously entertaining and titillating themselves at local levels in the name of “Enlightenment” with vicarious distractions in search for a Straw Man for their existential projections of the mind, while the Innately Conspiratorial State of Self-Deceit and abundant delusions which inform perceptions of insularized meaning, bring Americans categorically further out of a possibility for True Value, True Synthesis, and redundantly to add, “True Republic”.
Hypocrisy rules a hoary queen. And observations as such, are not the same as “judgment” on part of the Author, who does not deny that articulating this in a General Address is marginally cathartic — It is his Personal Way of liberating the Soul by a Series of Public Sighs.
The ones that wrote back regarding this development varied from delirium and paranoia and cited “Privacy”/”Priority”/”Life” as their suppositions and requested in essence “not to be harangued” [ which in Light of their various vocal reasonings in past and gestures, appears to be highly contradicted ] , others had a “difficulty in imagining”, while others harmonized their “gestures” towards the tune of support and anticipation, while it is more or less the fact, that not a single soul took it upon themselves to absorb the actual implications of the “Long Correspondences” far less extend substantial engagement in a manner befitting timeliness and value in Light of the windows of opportunities realistically presented to their rational consumption.
They remained Agog with an almost pathological pursuit of Printed Money that is proving to have no practical value – a trend that will exponentially continue to migrate towards the “Dire” and the ridiculous, inducing self-enacted “Fatalism”, “Denial” in the American Public, while simultaneously denying the greater and cooperative means via which to secure Printed Money/Purchasing Power/Trade Agreements.
The present order of pathological and distracted culture continue to adore the endless duplicity of credentials supplied in startling quantities of arts and crafts by the Institutions which perpetually impregnate and invite the “Public” to become complicit in SYSTEMIC FRAUD, which “Sensibilities” are contrived and continuously “acculturalized” as an invention of Denial to prevent what is at all times “feared” as the “Inevitable Humiliation” at the level of Personal Incontinence and Irresponsibility at a CIVIC, SOCIAL, INDIVIDUAL, ENTREPRENEURIAL Level.
ALAS on account of no substantial Real Transformation in the Nature of Human Approach, the purely imaginary “doom and gloom” that is nourished by the animus of the public so freely hurtles ever closer to a ridiculous de-facto manifestation as a self-fulfilling prophesy.
Some that responded to the development demanded “simplifications” in spirit of their Culture of “Custmoer Service” , some projected their self doubt through reactionary condemnations of “Method” and demanding that I Substitute the “Method” with “Their” Method ( which demanded such things as reducing every document to two paragraphs,et cet. ) – being as they are “too busy” to “understand” – the particular needs and specifications of what a Substantial Effort involving multiple parties actually involve, when inter-institutional methodologies, and the arbitrary preferences of individuals leave us no choice than to be taken into detailed and diplomatic account.
Some expressed admiration towards my personal “flair” and “enjoyed” the “literate” aspects of the dispatches of late in an almost incandescent manner as if my correspondences were a revelatory “Art Exhibition” or a “Glorious Performance of the Literary Arts”, while many no doubt silently perceived the whole body of all this documentation as Spam, rejecting it with the vitriol of their own instilled and deliberate apathies, and seeing no immediate Cashflow for themselves, continued to meander on their “Own Ways” claiming themselves to be “Highly Practical and Worldly” and other ridiculous things — hurtling towards the United Ramifications that undoubtedly such a Causal future will conceive uninterrupted, through the deliverance of the innate “Beast” of the “Masses” in a form of mass altercation, and possible catastrophe in near times
[ ! ]
Nevertheless, the exact documentations of The West Philadelphia Greening Corporation will remain filed, the exact process remain charted and archived and marked, while this is assured to be the LAST philanthropically inspired correspondence in relation to it.
The Author offers not One Retraction from Anything Stated or Implied, and encourages the proverbial reader to realize what other people have said about the United States, who lived there in the past by reviewing a series of Quotations apt to reinforce the FUNDAMENTALS of what in Truth is occurring there from the point of view of a historical development at the level of the INDIVIDUAL :
[1] Since every effort in our educational life seems to be directed toward making of the child a being foreign to itself, it must of necessity produce individuals foreign to one another, and in everlasting antagonism with each other. Emma Goldman
[2] It will be of little avail to the people, that the laws are made by men of their own choice, if the laws be so voluminous that they cannot be read, or so incoherent that they cannot be understood; if they be repealed or revised before they are promulgated, or undergo such incessant changes that no man, who knows what the law is to-day, can guess what it will be to-morrow. Law is defined to be a rule of action; but how can that be a rule, which is little known, and less fixed? -- James Madison, Federalist Papers 62
[3] ..every Man has a Property in his own Person. This no Body has any Right to but himself. The Labour of his Body, and the Work of his Hands, we may say, are properly his. …. The great and chief end therefore, of Mens uniting into Commonwealths, and putting themselves under Government, is the Preservation of their Property. – John Locke, “A Treatise Concerning Civil Government”
[4] Morality is always the product of terror; its chains and strait-waistcoats are fashioned by those who dare not trust others, because they dare not trust themselves, to walk in liberty. -- Aldous Huxley
[ 5 ] The real point of audits is to instill fear, not to extract revenue; the IRS aims at winning through intimidation and (thereby) getting maximum voluntary compliance — Paul Strassel, former IRS Headquarters Agent Wall St. Journal 1980
[6] The lessons of the past are ignored and obliterated in a contemporary antagonism known as the generation gap. Spiro T. Agnew
[7] Originality is independence, not rebellion; it is sincerity, not antagonism. George Henry Lewes
THEREFORE, as a RESOLUTION OF SUMS – The Author is content to symbolize and finalize in this very last though not least of correspondences an Absolute Resolution in his own being as a United States Citizen, Social Entrepreneur, a Frank and Practical Person, to the end of being in past desirous of “assisting those in America” out of the Ideals of what some may mistakenly call “patriotism” when in Truth it has more to do with the Innate, Irrational, Unreasonable, and Frank Bonds of Human Encounter and Connectedness one calls LOVE.
He know longer finds any reason to continue such effort on behalf of a people that do not even believe in themselves, far less be capable of believing in another. A people that are so deep into the muck of their own biases towards their own existence, can not Love themselves for What they Are, and therefore, are incapable of “Loving their Neighbors” : which in absence of the superficial ties that bind them materially in the great Prank they themselves have granted complicity for hundreds of years before the contemporary birth of the author, which will result in a series of potentially very destructive freewilled spontaneous antagonism – in the name of some foolish “revolution”, which in truth would be closer to a varied series of frustrations and discombulation growing out of the general Spiritual, Moral, Civic, and Individual Incontentience, so long empowered from the point of the Societal Individual, the “Social Contract”, and embodied firmly in the so-called “Democratic Government”, which is inept and broken before true Integration of Reason, Heart, and Spirit : and through its popular diversions and assimilation unto “The People”, do not evolve, but rather erode through the ever descending venality of the times perfected in a state of incomparable laziness and depression of the Will.
If anyone obtains for themselves by some miracle from above a comprehension of the particulars stated within this final document and find themselves “inspired” to inspect the Suppositions partitioned in the prior Series of Disclosures, they are free to reach me through the usual communications method that remain the staple of spatial/geographical separatedness.
Then too, from this time, nothing that the author offers will be offered without a charge of money so that it is VALUED by the lazy consciences of those receiving the blessings of his perturbations in the realms of relevance, — whatever the “latest plight” of the Dollar, as the author believes, that “fellow Americans”, if not all humans, are still in such darkness and spiritual coma, as they simply have no Capacity to determine true and Objective Value, WILL Reject VALUE when it is Endowed Freely, and as race of people who are in the habit of taking every Good thing in Life including the Law of DIVINE Providence utterly for Granted, while ridiculously applying themselves to believe an endlessly, repetitive, and meaningless pursuit of “Short Term Cash” created from the very mortality of delusion to which they remain claustrophobically attached to, as they go onwards with their lives without any true determination, reason, engagement, or commitment, that will materialize “REAL Change”.
AT GREAT TRANSMUTATION OF PERSONAL PAIN – With All things considered, the author has no choice at this time to accept and express absolute INDIFFERENCE to “the fate of the ( Contemporary )Americas”, and continues to Affirm that there is no such thing as an impossible realization ( that, in and of itself, is COSMICALLY and TERRESTRIALLY, and DIVINELY Impossible! ), excepting impossibility itself in the SOLID and STUBBORN format of the grounds of human attitude which has a great deal to perfect of itself, and is like a Goo swirling in the habitual stench of categorical mistrust, deceit, frivolity, et cetera.
Thank You for what may have been the “Privilege” of your Time! And Good Luck.
Yours in the DIVINE Realization of ‘The Americas of the Aeges’,

A World Class Business Plan By Saint Matthew. ∞
In Uncategorized on December 1, 2009 at 8:02 pmPeer Reviewed on AMAZON.COM By BENJAMIN FRANKLIN of The Americas of the Aeges, On 9th. March Seventy Hundred and Ninety, Anno Domini.
“As to Jesus of Nazareth, my opinion of whom you particularly desire,
- I think his system of morals and his religion, as he left them to us, the best the world ever saw or is likely to see; but I apprehend it has received various corrupting changes,
- and I have, with most of the present dissenters in England, some doubts as to his divinity;
- though it is a question I do not dogmatize upon, having never studied it, and think it needless to busy myself with it now, when I expect soon an opportunity of knowing the truth with less trouble.
- I see no harm, however, in its being believed, if that belief has the good consequences, as probably it has, of making his doctrines more respected and more observed;
- especially as I do not perceive that the Supreme takes it amiss, by distinguishing the unbelievers in his government of the world with any peculiar marks of his displeasure.”
Benj. Franklin, Letter to Ezra Stiles, 9 March 1790, in John Bigelow, ed., The Works of Benjamin Franklin, at 12:185-86 (New York: Putnam’s, 1904) [ Expertly Bullet Pointed by a Modern Hominid Who Makes Use of the Internet, On the Assumption that "People" Read Real Books better, when they are re-formatted in a neat sequence of bullet points, like any other factoid that is Available On The Internet ] .

The Gospel of ( BEST PRACTISES ) according to St. Matthew’s ( PROTOCOLS OF DUE DILIGENCE ) – 7 -
[ FIRST WHITE PAPER ] Judging Others
Lk. 6.3738, 4142 1 Judge not, that ye be not judged. 2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.
Mk. 4.24 3 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother’s eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye? 4 Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye? 5 Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother’s eye. 6 ¶ Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.
[ SECOND CASE STUDY ] Ask, Seek, Knock Lk.
11.9-13 7 ¶ Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: 8 for every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. 9 Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone? 10 Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent? 11 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him? 12 Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: Lk. 6.31 for this is the law and the prophets.
[ A NEAT SERIES OF ACADEMIC SOURCE CITATIONS ] The Narrow Gate
Lk. 13.24 13 ¶ Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: 14 because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
[ CLASSIFIEDS SECTION ] A Tree Is Known by Its Fruit
Lk. 6.43, 44 15 ¶ Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. 16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? 17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. 19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. Mt. 3.10 · Lk. 3.9 20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them. Mt. 12.33
[FORMAL WRIT OF JURY DUTY WARRANT ] I Never Knew You
Lk. 13.25-27 21 ¶ Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. 22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? 23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
[ OPERATION WHISTLEBLOWER : A FEW INCORPORATED DITTIES : "BLOW THY HEAVENLY WHISTLE O CORPORATUS! ]
Ps. 6.8 The Two Foundations Lk. 6.46-49 24 ¶ Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: 25 and the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. 26 And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: 27 and the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it. 28 ¶ And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended these sayings, the people were astonished at his doctrine: 29 for he taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes. Mk. 1.22 · Lk. 4.32
