JAZZZ RAPPER 'GURU' DIES (July 17, 1966 – April 19, 2010)

  
Keith Elam (July 17, 1966 – April 19, 2010), better known by his stage name Guru, was an American emcee and member of the hip-hop duo Gang Starr, along with DJ Premier. He was born in Roxbury, Massachusetts. The name Guru is a backronym that stands for Gifted Unlimited Rhymes Universal and the less-often used God is Universal; he is the Ruler Universal, which are both references to the teachings of the Nation of Gods and Earths.

On February 28, 2010, Guru went into cardiac arrest and, following surgery, fell into a coma. It was claimed that Guru had briefly wakened from his coma but died on April 19, 2010, aged 47, from multiple myeloma.

In a letter purportedly drafted on his deathbed, Guru asked that Solar manage his posthumous image, likeness, etc. on behalf of himself, and his son KC, and that DJ Premier not associate himself with Guru.
Solar claimed that Guru had awoken from his coma to release the statement whilst members of the rapper's family stated that he never regained conciousness from his coma. Guru's family claimed that Solar prevented them from contact with Guru during the latter's final illness.

WU

It is the void that harbours in itself all potentialities.
According to the scholar He Yan (d. 249),  
Wu is beyond name and form and hence is absolute,
complete, and capable of accomplishing anything.

THE NON-PEOPLE THINKING OF SOUTHERN and NORTHERN OREGON....AMERICA

 The non-people of Hexagram 12

‘Obstructing it, non-people.
No harvest in noble one’s constancy.
Great goes, small comes.’

The ‘usual’ interpretation of the Judgement of Hexagram 12 is that there are bad people at work, dominating the environment, sabotaging the noble one’s good efforts. And sometimes, indeed, it can mean exactly that – in particular, that someone is promoting malicious rumours.

Some translations offer an alternative perspective. James Legge writes of ‘the want of good understanding between men’; Thomas Cleary, in his Taoist I Ching, has ‘denial of humanity’. The ‘non-person’ might not be a ready scapegoat for Obstruction; it might represent the attitude of mind that caused it.

‘Non people’, fei ren, are outside the system, not like us – which is a short step from concluding that they are not quite real people. In the Book of Songs, a miserable speaker asks if his ancestors are fei ren – inhuman, without compassion – that they should let him suffer. (Shijing 204)
They are literally ‘bandit people’, outlaws. The online Chinese etymological dictionary shows that ‘bandit’ is fault or evils concealed within an enclosure. The word for ‘evils’ seems to be derived from ‘broken wings’: a perfect image for something misaligned, that doesn’t work because it doesn’t fit together.

It’s not hard to see when a group is labelled as ‘non-people’ politically, they may actually become socially unacceptable, or just unthinkable, to ask how they are motivated as human beings. (Think of the various uses of the word ‘terrorist’, nigger, Mexican...) Labels can become a way of thinking: ‘You wouldn’t expect him to ask directions, he’s male’; ‘well, she would react like that, she’s a Scorpio’; ‘of course he’s hard working, Asians are.’

Much more subtle, much harder to see, are the ways we use labels as a shortcut in individual relationships. She’s hypersensitive, he’s egotistical… and that explains him or her, in a neat package. It may in fact allow you to predict another person’s behavior with great accuracy – but this is a cheap substitute at best for understanding them. When Hexagram 12 comes up in a reading, this predictive labelling may be getting so rigid as insidiously to replace real connection between people. Whatever is outside the labelled package becomes invisible.

I think Hexagram 12 can also refer to labels we have for ourselves. Synchronistically enough, I just browsed my way to an article on ‘Quantum labels’, which begins:

“What labels do you wear? Parent…student…professional…intellectual? Healer…writer…lover…friend? Labels are not only what others “see” us as, but also invisible containers and delimiters we apply to ourselves. Labels represent beliefs we hold about ourselves, and sometimes those beliefs are ones we wish we didn’t have. Beliefs like “I’m lazy”, “I procrastinate”, “I’m not smart enough” and so on.”

The article goes on to the slightly quirky suggestion that we should literally wear labels to change our nature at the cellular level. But the idea of an ‘invisible container or delimiter’ reminds me of the ‘box’ in the character ‘fei‘. As long as you or anyone is wedged inside that box, no amount of nobility and constancy will get you anywhere…with people labeling you as a non-person, or unlike themselves.

THE 11 BEST TATOOS IN THE NBA TODAY

 

As fun as it was to poke fun at NBA players for having terrible tattoos earlier this week, even we have to admit: Not all NBA players have ink that stinks. Unlike the J.R. Smiths and Kenyon Martins of the world, there are actually plenty of players out there that put time and effort into making their tattoos stand out from the rest of the crowd--in a good way. They represent their families, their hometowns, and their love for the game of basketball through the tatts they wear proudly on their skin. And here at StreetLevel, we're all about being fair. So to complement our list of The 11 Most Terrible Tattoos in the NBA Today, we tracked down 11 of our favorite tattoos in the league right now. Enjoy...

 

DeShawn Stevenson
Call us crazy for leading off the list with this selection, but we actually enjoyed seeing D-Steve walk into Washington Wizards training camp last September with a crack in his forehead, a backwards Pittsburgh Pirates logo and a snapshot of Honest Abe Lincoln tatted on his face and neck. Completely ridiculous? Of course. But looking at DeShawn's face was like looking at a car crash--and we just couldn't stop looking.

 

Gilbert Arenas
Agent Zero Six is getting killed in the media right now, so allow us to show the Wizards point guard a little love. Hey, Gil: That twisted family tree you've got tatted across your back under the words "Family Is A Haven In A Heartless World"? Niiiiice.

 

Kobe Bryant
The cardinal rule of tattoos: Don't get your significant other's name tatted anywhere on your body (right, Tahiry?). Fortunately for the Los Angeles Lakers superstar, all rules go out the window when you get got cheating on them you're the best player in the NBA. Way to keep her, Kobe.

 

Chris Andersen
Plenty of sites have tried to shoot Chris "Birdman" Andersen down for the wings he's got inked on the insides of his arms. But, seriously, guys: Would you rather he still looked like this? Or this? Or this? We'll take the wings.

 

Carlos Boozer
Another crappy panther? Um, no. That's actually a grizzly bear, which represents the Utah Jazz forward's hometown of Juneau, Alaska. Seems a little bit cooler now, doesn't it?

 

LeBron James
King James has been going by the nickname "Chosen One" for years now. So it's only right that he have the name tatted across the top of his back for all of the minions of the NBA to see. Checkmate!

 

Paul Pierce
Ummm....wait, so about that whole "Chosen One" thing. Paul Pierce must have missed the memo 'cause he also has the words tatted on his back. But his declaration sits just below a larger tattoo that sits on top of the scars he still brandishes from a 2000 stabbing incident that nearly killed him. Sorry, LBJ, we're choosing to like this one, too.

 

Brandon Jennings
Dear J.R. Smith: If you're gonna ink the words "Young Money" on your body, this is the way to go. Right on the money, B Jennings.

 

Marquis Daniels
The Boston Celtics guard isn't shooting 100 percent when it comes to tattoos: He's reportedly got one on his left arm that is supposed to be his initials in Chinese characters but actually translates to mean "healthy woman roof." Nonetheless, the map of Florida etched across his back is spectacular--and the second best map of Florida we've ever seen.

 

Rasheed Wallace
Everyone's seen the Egyptian-themed tattoo that Boston Celtics forward Rasheed Wallace rocks on his right arm to pay homage to his family. But he took things to a whole new level in 2008 when he got his entire back covered to represent his love for his daughter. Daddy's little girl, for real!

 

Stephen Jackson
It's hard to figure exactly how insane you need to be to completely disregard NBA Commissioner David Stern's opinion on guns and get one tattooed on your body. But one look at Jackson's infamous tattoo tells us that's he definitely got to be up there.

WINGED ALLIES: THE CELESTIAL OR GREAT DARK HORSE

Pounding hooves, tossing mane,
Take me swiftly on my life's journey.
Loyal friend, carry me to a place of safety.
Lift me over the obstacles of my path.

SPEED, POWER, FREEDOM

This totem brings new journeys. 
It will teach you to ride in new directions 

and discover your own freedom and power.
Horse is a Guide to overcoming obstacles.

The Horse is a symbol of Earth, Wind, And Fire.

Horse people are usually friendly and adventurous.

If a horse has shown up in your life, you must ask yourself:
"Am I feeling constricted? Do you need to move on or allow others to move on?"

Horse will teach you how to ride into new directions to awaken
and discover your own freedom and power.

LORD OF WINGED ALLIES (THE EAGLE'S GIFT)

I will give you a formula, an incantation for times 

when your task is greater than your strength:

“I am already given to the power that rules my fate.
And I cling to nothing, so I will have nothing to defend.
I have no thoughts, so I will see.
I fear nothing, so I will remember myself.
Detached and at ease,
I will dart past like the Eagle to be free.”

The Eagle
They remind us to pay attention to our speech and 

how it affects others. 

Our words as well as the tone of our voice should be examined. 

Eagle asks us to maintain a prayerful connection with Spirit, 

to keep our minds focused on what is important in life. 

Maintaining this attitude removes being judgmental from our consciousness. 

Without judgment we speak with encouragement and 

kindness towards others. 

Lessons associated with judgment are part of this medicine. 

Eagles have excellent vision. Perched high in a tree they appear 

to analyze and observe everything. If Eagle has blessed you with 

its presence in some way, you are being given potent gifts of clarity 

and vision to use for the good of all people helping to bring forth 

the light out of the darkness. 

Eagle also serves as a reminder to those with this totem to 

communicate with Great Spirit daily so the gifts Eagle offers you can be utilized fully.

ZIPLESS BY VANESSA DAOU 
Songs from the works of Erica Jong 

I heard this at a restaurant bar while talking to a friend
and was so immediately entranced I had to find out what it was.
It's one of those rare finds. You can carry on a conversation or
vacuum or ... to it, then you're like, "Waitaminute, stop,
I just have to hear this one part...." You can play it when
friends are over cuz its cool, jazzy, little-bit-tech vibe
is not at all intrusive. Your friend will suddenly inquire,
"Did she just say what I think she said?" Bawdy Jong lyrics
set to the most evocative music that is moody, but not dreary.
After a few listens it makes you secretly long for those troubled
relationships you had when young that were frought with longing,
doom and lust. Like those liaisons, from the very get-go
with Vanessa Daou's Zipless, you will be HOOKED.

15 years after its initial release,
this CD remains as dazzling & darkly enchanting as ever,
with slinky grooves & the sensual, piercing words of poet
Erica Jong brought to breathy life by Vanessa Daou.
A conceptual project like this can so easily fail, either
through pretentiousness or inept execution --
but there's no danger of either here! From the first note,
Vanessa's voice encircles & ensnares you, and doesn't let go ...

But there's more going on here than superior, artistic erotica.
Listen to the words, and you'll find as much pain, loneliness
& anguish as you find sex. These songs encompass every
aspect of love, both physical & emotional, and how tortuously
they're often entwined. The moan of passion, the gasp of loss,
the crazy joy of union & consummation ... it's all here,
waiting to be experienced. Most of all, there's an earthy
purity to that experience, something rich & powerful --
above all, fiercely intelligent, fiercely alive -- highly recommended!

FEAR OF FLYING By Erica Jong
Erica Jong (née Mann; born March 26, 1942)
is an American author and teacher.

In the novel, Jong coined the term "zipless fuck",
which soon entered the popular lexicon. A "zipless fuck"
is defined as a sexual encounter for its own sake,
without emotional involvement or commitment or any
ulterior motive, between two previously unacquainted persons.


The zipless fuck is absolutely pure. It is free of ulterior motives. There is no power game . The man is not "taking" and the woman is not "giving." No one is attempting to cuckold a husband or humiliate a wife. No one is trying to prove anything or get anything out of anyone. The zipless fuck is the purest thing there is. And it is rarer than the unicorn. And I have never had one.

– Erica Jong, Fear of Flying (1973)

Jong goes on to explain that it is "zipless" because
"when you came together, zippers fell away like rose petals,
underwear blew off in one breath like dandelion fluff.
For the true ultimate zipless A-1 fuck, it was necessary that
you never got to know the man very well."
The term has seen a resurgence in popularity as
third-wave feminism authors and theorists continue
to use it while reinterpreting their approach to sexuality.
