Deja Vu AscendancyChapter 417: Multiple Sight Blobs: Good For Me, Expensive For Israel free porn video

Thursday, June 19 to Monday, June 24, 2008

I had several areas I wanted to work on:

I wanted multiple proximity blobs so I could have one around every loved one, to dramatically improve my ability to detect threats to them.

I wanted sight blobs able to fly faster than 300 mph when they're in locations remote from me. I could maybe double that speed with practice, but I wanted at least a tenfold improvement and that'd take an insight. If I need to use a sight blob at a remote location, the current fastest way to get it there is to fly there myself, create the sight blob, leaving it there while I fly myself back home - and that's just SILLY! It's also potentially dangerous because of my high profile these days. In the pre-resurrection days when I was flying around and doing Majestic Countdown's snooping, if the Government got a glimpse of something suspicious it would never know to investigate Mark Anderson. Now I'd be the first person the Government would think of. The last thing I wanted was for the Government to think that the Guardian Angel couldn't operate apart from me, because that would too easily suggest that I was operating it. It might make them wonder about Archangel Michael too, especially as he'd worn a silly costume and the Government had seen my body slowly change from Ron into Mark. Not making the Government suspicious about my involvement was very important.

I also wanted to be REALLY sure I wouldn't drop anyone I flew remotely. I was already practicing by flying many lumps of water around rapidly. I was often pushing my limits, and sometimes exceeding them so I dropped the water, but that was just part of my practice. I was fine when I stayed within my limits. I had to be a little more careful in areas of poor visibility, such as in a cloud, but that was foolishly psychological of me because the sight blob was still sending me its precise location. I'll do a lot more practice, and then practice with a parachute-wearing Ava as well, just in case the psychology of that causes me any problems. It's a real nuisance that creating a ki-effect in a remote location requires me to be so familiar with it that I need to have a sight blob already looking at it - damn chicken-and-egg situation!

Not to mention damn sound blobs! I do have to keep mentioning them because I can never get the damned things to work. I especially want those soon because I'd much prefer to massively upgrade my families' flying activity with the additional assurance I'd get from being able to listen as well as watch the people most likely to try to cause us trouble.

Another very useful ability would be ESP. I can read emotions wonderfully well, so why not thoughts? I'd love to be able to make sure the President, CIA bosses, etc., didn't have any bad intentions toward us. If they leave us alone, we should have fantastic lives and I should be of immeasurable benefit to the country and world, but any one of those assholes has got the power to cause us a lot of grief if he gets that idea into his head. They had promised not to act against us, but the fact that it wasn't their first such promise proved that I'd be stupid to let our safety rely on politicians' promises.

The above pursuits were all motivated by my personally benefiting from them, although in a few months other Marks would happily enjoy being able to reproduce any of them that I succeeded with. There were also a few items left over from my Voyage that it would be very good to solve:

Being able to contact thousands of Marks without having to wait for random links is great, but I've got my eyes open for a way of contacting all - however many that is - of the lower-minded Marks, most especially the single-minded ones as they're effectively cut off because there are so few two-minded Marks left, and those few are steadily decreasing in number. I believe those cut-off Marks are good guys, and I'm sure they'd greatly appreciate getting a call from a high-minded Mark, especially if whichever Marks contacted them gave them "a piece of his minds."

Speaking of which, it'd be very convenient if we could transfer a subset of minds, rather than it being an all-or-nothing deal.

The above items are all "external", in the sense that they're expressions of ability, but I also have MANY questions about the theory internal to my abilities, déjà vu, merging, minds, etc., and I had even more questions about science in general. For example, as a result of my master's studies I have some questions about electromagnetism. That's an old and even unfashionable area of study, but it appeals to me because it still has many mysteries and my abilities should allow me to carry out some very unusual experiments, hopefully letting me obtain some enlightening results. I'd also really like to know where the MASSIVE power comes from that I can wield with even less than a wave of my hand. My abilities had leaped up so far that I should try almost everything I could think of, and with the number of minds I had, I could think of a LOT of things!

I worked on the above list. I enjoy gaining new understandings of science, especially when there are huge benefits in it for me, as there recently has been with this stuff. I'm also extremely intelligent these days, and with 5,824 of us - the largest four Marks in four-way déjà vu links - there are nearly always many different ideas for how to approach every question we could think of.

I'd taken the small risk of creating a four-way déjà vu's because I'd seen that the more minds I had, the more responsive and 'helpful' the Universe was. Having 5,824 minds in my head got me a LOT of cooperation [[the Universe's Consciousness responds by an amount that follows a square function, so my increasing my number of minds by a ratio of 5824 (now) /1792 (outside of déjà vu), being 3.25, meant responsiveness improved by more than a factor of 10. I was rarely outside of déjà vu so the real gain was more like a factor of 2.5, but that was still useful]]. I was dominating my little corner of the Universe more strongly than I ever had before, I was compelling it to do more of what I wanted, so I was gaining more information than ever before. As always, I had some successes and some failures. Guess which of those two categories the damned sound blobs stayed immovably in?

Despite the failures, useful insights were gained. For example, I learned quite a lot about minds. Not how to contact 'strangers' - Marks in other dimensions, especially the single-minded Marks - but among my learning was that the 'address' I had in the w-dimension wasn't a Spatial x, y, z; but some sort of a Consciousness x, y, z; although I only got a feeling for what that meant. I also got the feeling that the Universe was more interested in consciousness than it was with space (in the spatial sense), although that might have been an incorrect impressed resulting from my interacting with it consciously.

I learned enough additional information about how minds work and how they 'fit' in the Universe to no longer fear too many minds being bad for me, and I learned how to control how many and which minds take part in a déjà vu, merge or upgrade. My minds were opening up to me more, allowing me to see far more about how they functioned and how they interacted with the Universe. I was seeing the meta-information about my minds' interactions internally and externally. There was more interaction and types of interactions than I'd ever suspected, especially at the deeper levels of my minds.

Controlling which minds took place in an upgrade was quite easy although the trick was crude. All the source minds copied both ways during the déjà vu, but only the two individuals that were linked were essential for the process. If any of the other copies turned themselves off - we had gained enough knowledge about and power over minds to be able to do that - it was a few seconds before they were recopied. They were effectively committing mind-suicide but that was hard to take seriously as they were copies that hadn't existed a few seconds ago. If the link was cut before the suicided minds were recopied, whichever copied minds were still active at the time of the cut were the ones that stayed active in the recipient's dimension. I tested the idea with one of the 448-minded Marks. We linked and I taught him what he needed to know, then all my copies in his brain, except for my anchor's mind, turned themselves off. In my brain, he did the same except leaving two of his minds going. I severed the link, leaving him with 449 minds, and me with 1,794, confirming it worked. That would allow us to fine-tune the merges in the future, not that we really needed to because I no longer feared having too many minds. Any risk from having too many would have to come from something I don't even suspect yet, because everything I know about minds gives having any number of them the green light.

After a couple of very interesting days thinking about science issues behind my abilities, I decided that I liked the idea of having even more minds so I could do even more productive science by getting more results from my ability-related experiments. I was 99% sure it was safe, but I waited for half an hour between each of twelve more upgrades from the 448-minded Marks (one had 449 minds, but that's not important). As an extra safety measure, I canceled all of my minds but the one necessary copy in their heads just before the link was cut, so I ended up with 7,171 minds and my helpers with 449 and one 450.

I didn't bother telling Prof about the fourfold increase in my number of consciousness streams.

The increase led to some very nice discoveries. One I particularly liked was an improvement on my earlier discovery for how to 'see' spatial addresses with either my proximity sense or get them from ki-effects. That had been quite limited as my ki-effects had to already be somewhere to send me its address. It was a chicken-and-egg situation that limited my ability to use remote ki-effects wherever I wanted, so I did a lot of work on it. The main problem was a lack of familiarity with the Universe's location system, as that unfamiliarity caused confusion and the ki-effects to self-cancel, which was especially annoying if they were a long way away. As previously described, the Earth's movement through space made gaining that familiarity a bitch. It took a LOT of practice to get used to, and it was only possible because I now had enough minds to get the Universe to do some of the work for me, and the rest I managed to get my very capable subconsciouses to develop routines to process. They had to continually track all the individual vectors of the Earth's movement for different latitudes, and become so familiar with them that they became second nature to allow for, just like it's second nature to allow for gravity and wind when catching a ball. Once I FINALLY got a handle on that mess well enough to be able to know where a remote coordinate was in relation to me, my sight blobs no longer had a speed limit because I could now jump them to any address I wanted, as I now knew where that address was even more accurately than my looking at it with another sight blob - unless I screwed up the subconscious calculations, which I very often did initially, especially because I was navigating around the outside of a sphere.

I already subconsciously knew how the human compass directions and our mile unit of measure related to the coordinate system that sight blobs had been using since I learned how to get them to report the Universe's positions, but I did some trial runs around Corvallis to get a feel for consciously directing sight blobs to 'jump' rather than 'fly'. I had several failures because I was still struggling with the processing required, but once I got my subconsciouses to develop the necessary allowances, I rapidly got better at the remote creation of sight blobs and other ki effects.

Once I had a bit of local practice jumping sight blobs, I sent one of them on a much longer jump. I knew Paris was roughly 5,200 miles northeast, measured around the circumpherence of the globe. I created a sight blob at that spot, 7,000 feet up. I got the location I wanted - of course, or the sight blob wouldn't have created - but I'd missed Paris. I could see a town so I lowered the sight blob to read the street signs. I'd found France all right. I jumped the sight blob back to my upstairs study, had it google that town, found out where it was, where Paris was relative to it, did the necessary adjustment, and jumped the sight blob to above Paris. A couple of eyeball-steered jumps and a little bit of flying got my sight blob to sit on top of the Eiffel Tower, that being my goal for this exercise. I patted myself on the back.

From Paris I jumped the sight blob to HIGH over the eastern end of the Mediterranean, high enough to give me a view of a lot of the planet. It only took a few seconds to find Israel, jump closer, spot Tel Aviv, then jump there. Some of my minds started planning how best to make use of this new capability to remind Israel and the world that the Guardian Angel shouldn't be ignored. Meanwhile other minds were practicing jumping their sight blobs around to other places, several of them independently deciding that Australian beaches needed to be checked out as it was high summer now. It didn't take those minds long to notice that the southern hemisphere was in the middle of winter - the thought of girls in bikinis really does dramatically reduce guys' IQs!

Like any new skill, more practice was a good idea. That was especially effective because each of us had our own sight blobs now so we were getting a LOT of simultaneous practice, which helped all of me because our subconsciouses "leaked" to each other.

I thought to try jumping my proximity blob around, and found that I could. I was very happy with that because it improved my loved one's safety considerably: if I saw something happening near them which might be a threat, I could jump the proximity blob there to get a very good read on the emotions of the people involved, and a highly accurate X-ray-like scan of everyone and everything in the area. I failed to get more than one proximity blob going, but even one was great. I had previously done some covert flights to get near enough to different types of explosive material to learn what they looked like in my proximity sense, but now I was able to do a much better job of that, including hunting down and memorizing the look of many different types of radioactive material, just in case.

Once I'd done enough practice that I was able to jump sight blobs reliably, one of my minds gave Julia the good news, "I've just worked out how to break the speed limit on anyone flying without me. You'll be able to fly yourself to Paris whenever you want, and get there in about half an hour. Vanessa will be able to fly herself to DC daily too. From our home's doorstep to MAF's doorstep will take maybe twenty minutes if she takes it reasonably easy."

"You were working on that even NOW!"

"I was just lying here. You were doing everything."

"Seeing as how it's for shopping trips, I'll forgive you this time." Julia stopped doing our very enjoyable physical activity to talk about how amazing all of us being able to fly was going to be, thereby proving that my mistake over the southern hemisphere's season wasn't a one-time problem. Maybe the latest increase in my number of minds had decreased my intelligence?

In my impatience and confidence about my ability to keep all of us safe, the very next day the Guardian Angel flew all my girls and me to the Aquatic Center, so a large number of people could see it flying us for a routine event. We'd flown to the pools once before in this dimension, but after that flight we'd publicly 'guessed' that the angel's motivation had been to show the world that it was safe, and that it'd presumably done it as an ice-breaking exercise. Now we had the very different objective of being seen to have fun with the angel's convenient help, and have fun we did! It helped me do some AMAZING high-board dives, and you should see me play Toss The Girl now! I still had to manually grope their asses of course, as required by my rules for that game, but the angel also gave visually and tactually noticeable upward boosts to the girls' tosses. There were a couple of troublesome people at the pools, but they very quickly desisted when the angel got in their face - EVERYBODY in the world knew not to mess with a Guardian Angel! Otherwise the public had been fairly well behaved.

Much of our flying was caught on cellphone cameras and it was featured heavily in the news, causing somewhat of a frenzy. I gave a TV interview in which I mentioned that the Guardian Angel had given me a message that it'd be more cooperative with flying my friends and me around. Following that interview's broadcast, we were inundated with requests for flights, but I'd covered that in my interview by stressing that the angel's note had said "your friends and you", so I just ignored such requests unless the person got obnoxious, in which case the angel taught them that being obnoxious was a bad idea. I know I said just above the everybody knew not to mess with an angel, but it's amazing how many people can turn off their brains while being obnoxious. Being bulldozed along the street for a hundred feet or so usually reminded them to think.

I had several dozen sight blobs in various Federal and State offices before our flight to the pools, and I was pleased to see that the Government didn't react. I kept the sight blobs watching for several days, because we did more flying in the following days. After three such events, it was time to add a new nuance: to finally prove to everyone that Guardian Angels can operate independently of me, so I can't be held responsible for them.

The next morning I had the angel fly us and a large bunch of our friends to LA. Our arrival made a huge splash, even though we landed on the sand, judging by the number of reporters who came rushing to the beach to interview us. I told them, "We asked to come here because this is a nicer beach than we have in Oregon." Just as the reporters were finishing up with us, a Guardian Angel appeared at the Norfolk Naval Station, flying around it, around Newport News, and other nearby navy areas, seemingly checking on how the aircraft carrier decommissioning was going. It was apparently unhappy that the USS Homer Simpson wasn't being scrapped - we hadn't cared previously but I wanted the angel to make an impact now - because it picked the carrier up out of the water and flew it to a municipal trash dump and placed it there. The carrier weighed only about 100,000 tons so that was easy. It was going to be a bitch for the navy to process where it was, but that wasn't my problem; I was more than happy with how fantastically bizarre it looked lying on its side several miles inland.

Only a couple of minutes after the news-teams interviewing us on the beach had finished, they came rushing back very excited over the incident on the opposite side of the country. They were disappointed when all I said was, "Don't ask me; the angel never tells me what it's intending to do, let alone why."

The TV news was very amusing that evening. That the Guardian Angel could be in two locations so far apart, and be so STRONG, blew people away. It did a VERY good job of convincing people that I didn't have to be within 500 feet of the angel, and I doubt that anyone in their right mind would ever dream of thinking that I could lift an aircraft carrier - that'd be INSANE!

The Government was worried shitless by the latest development, so I was very pleased with myself. My sight blobs watched several meetings about me and the angel, including one at the presidential level. They'd seriously discussed "doing something", but they'd been completely unable to make up their minds what. Their failure to arrive at a decision meant there were no obituaries in the evening news. I'll continue to keep several close eyes on them just in case they do decide something.

Over the next several days I'll have the Guardian Angel be more visible and active. It'll openly visit Washington DC, popping in to eyeball the Prez just because that'd be fun, especially because I'll have the angel fade into nothingness rather than visibly leave, making him fear that it's still near him. I'm tempted to have tiny angels report to the boss angel by having them emerge from the President's phone or even from his forehead, but that's probably excessive. I am getting what I want now, so I shouldn't scare them too much. I will have the angel check all the other carrier decommissioning jobs, several angels will examine MIT carefully (the public knows that I'll be going to MIT soon, so it makes sense for the angel to check it out), hundreds of it will cruise through the CIA's, NSA's and FBI's buildings one day, including into all their computer systems. The main reason I'll do the last trick is to badly mess up any theories the FBI has about Majestic Countdown's methods for creating leaks.

I'll try to think of many things that have any sort of "Keeping Mark Safe" justification, and I should be able to come up with many dozens of them. Meanwhile the angel will also be doing fun things with us. I'd like a trip to Hawaii, and I wouldn't be terribly surprised if two of my girls suggest a trip to Paris. Maybe I should buy a huge, luxurious RV so the angel can fly us around in comfort? That's quite tempting as I still haven't solved the problem of Magic Flying Sleds being woefully unequipped for passenger comfort.

All going well - and it's hard to imagine how anyone could make it go badly - in a few days my loved ones and I can start flying independently. Maybe Sensei would like to fly to Japan with me for some regular Aikido lessons from one of the top masters. I'm sure my girls would like to fly from store to store in Tokyo, openly accompanied by the Guardian-sama, or perhaps Guardian-kohai as I can imagine it being employed as the bag carrier. Perhaps on the same day Vanessa and Mom can pay a flying visit to MAF's offices in DC. The latter is a particularly good idea because Vanessa and Mom spend a lot of time in their plane. They get up VERY early quite a few mornings, sleeping on the plane as it flies them to DC, arriving at the start of the workday there. It's often quite late by the time they get home again, or they sometimes stay in an apartment they have in DC if they've got more work the next day. It would make their trip times far shorter and lives easier if the angel provided their cross-country flights. Getting some comfortable accommodation built for them for the angel to encase in a flying sled for those trips would be a good idea.

There's going to be some interesting times ahead!

Another ability I picked up was always knowing the spatial address of my loved ones, and of anyone else I wanted to bother to memorize the individual w-address for. The two addresses - w- and spatial - are actually very different. People don't have a spatial address per se; they are AT a spatial address (more accurately, are at a volume of spatial addresses). If someone moves, there is no information about that person that changes to show their new location. But I could use their w-address to find them (the address of the dimension itself was only a part of each person's w-address, like a telephone area code is only part of everyone's individual phone number. The dimension itself was effectively the prefix with every consciousness within that dimension having its own w-address suffix). I could obtain their spatial address indirectly by creating an "Information Pipe" to their w-address, and then looking at the spatial address for where the pipe emerged. I programmed my subconscious to continually keep an Information Pipe active and focused on each loved one and 'display' its other end's spatial address. It wasn't actually "displayed", but I was permanently aware of it much like you're aware of where your fingers are. It was an easy modification of the w-address sense I had, and could be applied to anybody I met in the traditional way. I just had to get them into my proximity sense initially to get their w-address, but thereafter I could get their spatial address just by thinking about it, and then I could create a sight blob there (usually a few feet higher).

Being able to jump sight blobs to any spatial address I wanted and also being able to track where my loved ones were, meant I was now at least 200% safe against dropping anyone when flying them around remote from me.

I got many of my sight blobs onto the job of hunting down important people, then jumping my proximity blob to them so I could memorize their w-addresses. If I ever have a sudden need to check on the President, members of various powerful Government committees, armed forces generals, down to the local Chief of Police, then now I can instantly create a sight blob wherever they are. With my having so many sight blobs and minds, many of whom will have nothing better to do, more often than not I'll have some of my minds keeping an eye on these potential troublemakers, just to make sure they don't try to start another operation against me.

It took a few of my minds a little while to research the right direction, and several jumps before my sight blob iterated toward its destination, but I'm now the first human being to have personally examined the Alpha Centauri solar system. I can report that it has several smallish planets, none of which are supporting visible life as far as I can tell; I jumped my proximity sense there and have checked out hundreds of possible locations, so I can tell that down to a very small level. None of the planets are habitable by humans without major effort. The most human habitable of them is about the same as Ceres (one of the several dwarf planets in our solar system. It's the next major body out from Mars). I know what Ceres is like because several of my minds are also giving our solar system a good looking over. You might be interested to know that there is non-terrestrial life in our solar system. What I've discovered is very small and has no mind, but it does exist, and it's in a place where I've read articles about the possibility, so the rest of humanity will discover it sooner or later. Maybe I should put up a signpost, haha.

Having thousands of sight blobs that can jump wherever I want is a LOT of fun!

Now that I can easily take action in Israel, I have the problem of deciding what to do about the Knesset's failure to apologize to me effectively or to punish those responsible for spying on me. Something has to be done in case my letting it slide even further encourages someone to try again. It would be much better to discourage that from starting rather than rely on catching it at the time.

My first thought was that some sort of religious punishment seemed very appropriate and deserved. I did some research, which taught me that it was a TERRIBLY thorny issue. I had thought of destroying something important; or if it was small enough, taking it away and giving it to one of their Arab neighbors; or maybe just picking it up and putting it back upside-down to be a constant reminder of God's displeasure with them - but all of the many possible targets had too much religious importance. You know how crazy people can get about religion, and the people in that part of the world seem to be the craziest of all. The religious situation there seems to be so unstable, so likely to explode into violence, and so impossible to understand and predict, that I feared meddling with it.

To make it even worse, most of the things that are sacred to the Jews are also sacred to the Muslims and it wouldn't be fair to penalize them for the Mossad's operation. For example, the Temple Mount in Jerusalem is the holiest site in Judaism, yet the site is controlled by Muslims who apparently don't allow the Jews to do anything religious on it or in its tunnels. The Muslims have even sealed up many of the tunnel entrances with brick walls so no one can get into it, not even Muslims, which doesn't make any kind of sense to me. Parts of the tunnel complex have not been visited for hundreds of years, let alone studied, so there could be God knows what sorts of valuable finds down there. It's almost enough to make me think that religious people are irrational. My wrecking the place was a bad idea not only because it was shared - sort of - but because it's widely believed that its destruction will coincide with the Second Coming of Christ, and God knows what terrible chaos could result from highly religious, heavily armed people believing that was happening. And I've barely begun to describe the myriad of tangled problems associated with the Mount, as there are many other highly emotional, vested interest groups with all sorts of weird agendas and perspectives. It was impossible to predict what would happen if I did anything at all to the place, but it was all too possible to imagine that all sorts of undesirable trouble would be included.

I worked my way down the list of important religious sites or artifacts in Israel, eliminating those of them that had such problems, looking for one that I could safely use to punish just the Jews. I still hadn't found one when I gave up. I was so far down the list that it would have seemed petty of the angel to target anything so minor. By the way, I was using a computer in London to do this research. Being able to send my ki-effects anywhere is handy.
