Before what is now Indonesia was colonized by the Dutch East India Company, Jambi was the site of a well-established, powerful Srivijayan kingdom that engaged in trade throughout the Strait of Malacca and beyond. It succeeded Palembang to the south, which was a frequent military and economic rival, as the later capital of the ancient kingdom. The move to Jambi was partly induced by the historic 1025 raid by pirates from the Chola region of southern India that destroyed much of Palembang.

In the early decades of the Dutch presence in the region, when the future colonizers were just one of several groups of traders competing with Brits, Chinese, Arabs, and Malays, the Jambi sultanate profitably traded pepper with the Dutch. This relationship declined by about 1770, and the sultanate had little contact with the Dutch for about sixty years.

In 1833, minor conflicts with the Dutch, who were well established in Palembang, meant the Dutch increasingly felt the need to control the actions of Jambi. They coerced Sultan Facharudin to agree to greater Dutch presence in the region and control over trade, although the sultanate remained nominally independent. In 1858 the Dutch, apparently concerned over the risk of competition for control from other foreign powers, invaded Jambi with a force from Batavia. They met little resistance, and Sultan Taha fled to the upriver, inland regions of Jambi. The Dutch installed a puppet ruler, Nazarudin, in the lower region, which included the capital city. For the next forty years Taha maintained the upriver kingdom, and slowly reextended his influence over the lower regions through political agreements and marriage connections. In 1904, however, the Dutch were stronger and, as a part of a larger campaign to consolidate control over the entire archipelago, soldiers finally managed to capture and kill Taha, and in 1906, the entire area was brought under direct colonial management.

I know lots of people hate Pain of Salvation.. but their newest album, BE, has all of the titles in Latin, rather than english. Daniel Gildenlow said that the band did it that way to keep people from judging the meanings of the songs without having to research...

If you read Sigur Ros's translated lyrics, they're incredibly emo and sappy.... yet I still love the band cause I can't understand what Jonssi is saying when he sings.

So yeah, it works.

I SERIOUSLY believe we should maybe focus more on this : 34D243334D117

I mean if it's a code...it's obviously of utmost importance? All of these ideas are great and make perfect sense, but I have an odd feeling about cracking this code.

Could be a tab-like thing for guitar. D being open D string, rest of the notes on D. Or something.

Or its a barcode, like I said before.

When you put it into Google, it looks like some people at the APC forums had a nice discussion about it. None of the links to it work anymore, though :/

well if played on the first three strings and semi fast, its an okay heavyish riff

but if played with 5 strings d chords and broken up a little, it sounds kinda middle eastern, though the 5 string d chords kinda all do

In the case of the spacecraft that allegedly crashed in the American southwest in 1947... conveniently so close to a military facility (and not just any military base *nudge*), the glyphs embossed on the H and I beams resembled letters of the classical Greek alphabetic script (with Greek-like letters reported elsewhere in connection with alleged trans-mundane writing). Of course, nearly everyone considers Santilli's controversial 'Magdalena' footage to be bogus, and point out that the classical Greek letters and/or proto-Phoenician script, if that's what it is, appear to spell out in English the word "video." (NOTE: With its combination of strange alien symbols, classical Greek, [proto] Phoenician and modern day English, did anyone ever consider that what 'crashed' was a Rosetta Stone of sorts?) All I can say is that you haven't seen what I have. Danny saw it, too... in Mesquite... the first dissection, which was far better...the humanoid appearing even freakier looking than Michael Jackson..." "Danny saw it, too?" one the ladies asked... "Well there's a Tool connection for the Tool newsletter." "I know that. Hell, there are lots of connections. Camella here is married to Adam and Diablo is their dog. Scott was damn near the new bass player after Paul left... and Danny's new electronic drums were Vince's brainchild... not to mention that new dimension beam contraption that will enable Danny to play without drumsticks. Need I continue?.. And Scott's now in Butcher with Camella who is married to Adam and Diablo is their dog..." That's when the Vicodin (or was it a Xan-bar*?) kicked in. And, so instead of smores, there were snores as one by one we retired to our respective tents (and I'm positive that's when they resumed 'testing' the TR-3B).

Edit: This definately supports Myriadiem... along with the current tracklisting. But at least the name of the album is brought into question.

You guys, seriously, listen to me, I can save you lots of time. Look at the context in which Blair mentions 34D243334D117. Read the paragraphs that come before it. He's talking about Playboy's 2004 Miss July's measurements: 34D-24-33.

... As posted by Blair? Maybe he was trying to be coy about it. Look up Playboy's Miss July 2004 and see if those are her actual measurments.

Why was Blair talking about her in the first place? I mean, he usually talks about some random shit... but that all seems to somehow come back to the band in some way or another.

ONE more thing I have noticed...

Throughout ALL of the 2005 Newletters, there are VERY sporadic numbers and letters underlined...

Just browse through them and look for yourself...

When I try and paste it here the underlines disappear, so you'll have to see this on your own. I'll give you some links in a sec.

You're concerned with identity. But by doing so, you are stabbing the ally while he is running.

There may be pretenders abound but some of you are starting to figure it out. Rewarded will be those who are.

Take your hands, dig deeper.

You have all heard the message thus far but it's sad to see that few have listened.

I'll help you, but only if there's tragedy afoot.

Speculate - comprehend - visualies - communicate - love.

Start here.

POSTER:gullibly writes ton the he "webdesignvermont.com" owned 10,000 days board

so youre saying that much of what has been put forth from the band is legit? we all want the truth, and we are all looking for it, but it is right in our face?
---------------------

ADAM IM-POSTER REPLIES:

I see your skepticism and I feel your anger.

The message is right there... it's been there all along... and it is in play right now.

The truth is right in front of you. It has been rediscovered and fits. Afterall, you will notice a thematic thread through the last two Tool albums. Were there really people running around in there? Were they alone?

Or was it that one piece described the division and second provided the reconciliation?

What is there left?

Or is life imitating art?

Besides... theatricality has always been a part of the message and it would be foolish to assume that it stops when you've ejected your disc from the player.

Can you hear me?

Further more, who is to say who is a character? But we urge you to listen to the albums again... take note of subjects... follow the flowing nature of the lyrics... maybe there is a hidden story underneath it all that begs for a conclusion, but is not possible unless YOU are involved.

Speculate

comprehend

visualize

communicate

love
