hologram.noun,.plural.holograms
more properly termed a 'holofractal graph' which
is a three-dimensional
projection of an object; invented by Dennis Gabor, a hologram is a sculpture
made out of light; look at your credit card; go to Disneyland where you'll
see people dancing in front of you, but they are only just projections;
memory also can be a holographic
object, where the whole of it is in every bit of it."...the
hologram of human memory
is situated in the vacuum field and exists in the space after the human
death."....A.K.
Maneev, Movement, contradiction, development, Minsk, Technique and
Science, 1982; even light
is a construct within this hologram. It's the invisible
process that transfers energy into physical manifestation.
Example of making a hologram: you take a laser
beam and put it through a machine called a beam splitter, split it into
two, here one is called the object beam and the other is the reference
beam;
the object beam goes at the object, the turtle, after it's reflected from
a mirror, goes through lenses which spread the beam and then this spread
is reflected by another mirror, which is directed at the object; the reference
beam bounces off a mirror, goes through beam spreader lenses and picks
up the image frequencies coming from the turtle, creating what's called
an interference pattern as the image frequencies now hit the photographic
plate which records what it has 'seen'; if you look at that, all it looks
like is a bunch of squiggles;
making a hologram requires a wide photographic plate placed on the floor
(so you could turn this picture so that the laser beam is at the top) and
then you place an object standing on the plate (let's say it's a person
or a turtle); behind and above the object are mirrors angled to receive
and reflect images generated by the dispersed energy from the split laser
beam when it's passed onto the object by means of a pathway it's been made
to take; the photographic plate on the floor records the information it
receives from the mirrors; you could now break the plate into a trillion
pieces and all the information would be in each piece; the images
however get fuzzier the smaller they are, but they are still there; this
is how each cell in your body has information of all
other cells in your body; it is the pattern produced on a photosensitive
medium (the plate's film) that has been exposed by what we term holography
and then photographically developed; the photosensitive medium is exposed
(accepts what it 'sees') and develops what is called a hologram
holography.noun
a method of producing a three-dimensional
image of an object by recording on a photographic plate or film the pattern
of interference formed by a split laser beam and then illuminating the
pattern either with a laser or with ordinary light
holographic also
holographical.adjective
of or relating to holography or holograms; of
or being a document written wholly in the handwriting of the person whose
signature it bears
holographically.adverb
Herodias, the daughter
of Aristobulus and Bernice.
Herodias had previously been married to Philip, but had deserted him for
his brother Herod Antipas the
tetrarch.
This Herod was reproved
by John the Baptist, as the Old Testament Mosaic
Law was still in place at this time (Leviticus
18:16-20; 20:21) and this
Herod, therefore, to please Herodias, bound John and cast him into prison.
Matthew
14:5 tells us that he would even then have put John to death, but "feared
the multitude" which regarded John as a prophet. Mark
6:17-28 relates it was Herodias and her corrupt mother who especially
desired the death of John, but that she was withstood by Herod whose conscience
was perhaps not altogether dead, but mostly is thought that this was because
he feared any reaction from the people who highly regarded John. At Herod’s
birthday feast, Herodias induced
her daughter Salome, whose dancing had so charmed the tetrarch, to ask
as her reward the head of John the Baptist on a charger. This was given
her and she then brought it to her mother. For more see 'Family of Herod'

Hafiz 1325?-1389
originally named Mohammed Shams od-Din, he gained the respectful title
Hafiz. He was born in Iran into a poor family and became a Persian poet
whose sensuous rhyming couplets,
many of which concern love, wine and nature, are traditionally interpreted
allegorically
by Sufic.Moslems;
the word hafiz means "one who has memorized the Koran",
as a teacher of the Koran; Hafiz was a member of the order of Sufi mystics
and also, at times, a court poet; his poems on one level celebrate the
pleasures of drinking, hunting and love at the court of Shîrâz
in Iran; on a deeper level, according to some scholars, they reflect his
consuming devotion as a Sufi to union with the divine; Hafiz's work, collected
under the title of Divan, translated 1891, contains more than 500
poems, most of them in the form of a ghazal, a short traditional Persian
form that he perfected, where each consists of up to 15 highly structured
rhyming couplets dealing with one subject; the language is simple, lyrical
and heartfelt; Hafiz is greatly admired both in Iran and, in translation,
in the West; especially appealing are his love for the common person and
his relation of daily life to the search of humanity for the
