The landlord -- Aner Iglesias -- had previously filed a creditor's claim with the Estate ... but dude says the administrators blew him off ... so he's decided to file the suit.

According to the docs, filed in L.A. County Superior Court, Jackson damaged the exterior and interior of the home, and screwed up the phone and alarm system.

Reps for the MJ Estate could not be reached for comment.

    Hahahahahaha, I love that "oops"-face! TMZ should get an award on the pictures they choose to go with the articles.

    BTW: 2008 to 2009? Didn't he reside in the mansion at Carolwood Drive since December 2008?

    I have to say, I am so glad they stopped calling him the dreaded 'J' word since June 25th.
    They clearly have a bit more respect.

    I also love the pictures they use (best ones tend to be of Michael and Conrad). Pictures say a thousand words! <!-- s:) -->:)<!-- s:) -->

    A time ago we wee talking about a house in vegas ... i don´t remember the subject but the house was damaged by fans <!-- s:? -->:?<!-- s:? --> if i remeber correctly... or was MJ there?
  • From the description of the damage 'allegedly' done to the home, sounds to me like whom ever removed the tapes, security system, and tried to disable the home phone system, etc. did that damage, NOT MJ <!-- s:evil: -->:evil:<!-- s:evil: -->

    Find the right culprits and you'll aptly find the missing pieces to this puzzle.

    The DOTS in this article are all about Quantum Mechanics.

    What Is Quantum Mechanics?
    The term quantum mechanics (QM) generally refers to a mathematical formulation of quantum theory. Quantum mechanics often describes and predicts the movement and behavior of particles at the atomic and subatomic levels. These include particles such as atoms, electrons, protons, and photons. According to quantum mechanics, the behavior and movement of particles at these microscopic levels are counter-intuitive, radically differing from anything observed in everyday life. This requires a theory like quantum mechanics in order to better explain this different world.

    In the macroscopic world, there usually are two types of phenomenon that are classified by scientists: particles and waves. Particles can be thought of as being localized, transporting mass and energy in their movements. Waves are a type of phenomenon that never is localized and has no mass, but nevertheless carries energy. The micro-world particles that are examined in quantum mechanics are different from those of the macro-world, because in certain situations, particles may act like waves, while conversely, waves may act like particles. According to quantum mechanics, this would mean that on the quantum level an apple could behave like a wave, while a wave could behave like an apple.

    Quantum mechanics uses the quantum unit to roughly assign and measure quantities of the physical properties of these particles. Particles generally are measured by considering the wave function recorded at the time of the measurement. Yet because particles may behave like waves, the simultaneous location or velocity of a particle can never completely be determined.

    This apparent conundrum is known as Heisenburg’s uncertainty principle, which in other words states that position and momentum cannot be exactly measured simultaneously. This is not entirely because there are any limitations in measuring equipment or ability, but because this uncertainty is believed to be inherent to the particles themselves. Quantum mechanics therefore is a mathematical theory that tries to calculate probabilities according to the wave function.

    Many scientists do not agree with the postulates of quantum mechanics. Albert Einstein was a scientist who sometimes was critical of quantum theory, as it conflicted with his own theory. Thus, one of the biggest problems in contemporary physics is to create a theory that would unify the ideas of quantum mechanics with those of Einstein's general theory of relativity. Physicists such as Julian Barbour have proposed some innovative solutions to this problem, basically stating that if humans consider that time itself does not exist, there is no obstacle to unifying quantum mechanics and the theory of relativity.

    MJLS - Markov(ian) Jump Linear Systems

    Marov Jump
    1. (mathematics) A time-dependent variable that starts in an initial state and stays in that state for a random time, when it makes a transition to another random state, and so on.
    http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Markov_jump_process

    Linear System
    A linear system is a mathematical model of a system based on the use of a linear operator. Linear systems typically exhibit features and properties that are much simpler than the general, nonlinear case. As a mathematical abstraction or idealization, linear systems find important applications in automatic control theory, signal processing, and telecommunications. For example, the propagation medium for wireless communication systems can often be modeled by linear systems.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_system

    Linear Operator
    In mathematics, a linear map (also called a linear transformation, linear function or linear operator) is a function between two vector spaces that preserves the operations of vector addition and scalar multiplication. The expression "linear operator" is commonly used for linear maps from a vector space to itself (endomorphisms). In advanced mathematics, the definition of linear function coincides with the definition of linear map.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_operator

    Deterministic System
    In mathematics, a deterministic system is a system in which no randomness is involved in the development of future states of the system. A deterministic model will thus always produce the same output from a given starting condition or initial state.
    Physical laws that are described by differential equations represent deterministic systems, even though the state of the system at a given point in time may be difficult to describe explicitly.

    In quantum mechanics, the Schrödinger equation, which describes the continuous time evolution of a system's wave function, is deterministic. However, the relationship between a system's wave function and the observable properties of the system appears to be non-deterministic.

    Markov chains and other random walks are not deterministic systems, because their development depends on random choices.

    A finite state machine may be either deterministic or non-deterministic.

    A pseudorandom number generator is a deterministic algorithm, although its evolution is deliberately made hard to predict; a hardware random number generator, however, may be non-deterministic.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deterministic_system_%28mathematics%29

    Non-Deterministic
    In the theory of computation, a nondeterministic finite state machine or nondeterministic finite automaton (NFA) is a finite state machine where for each pair of state and input symbol there may be several possible next states. This distinguishes it from the deterministic finite automaton (DFA), where the next possible state is uniquely determined. Although the DFA and NFA have distinct definitions, it may be shown in the formal theory that they are equivalent, in that, for any given NFA, one may construct an equivalent DFA, and vice-versa: this is the powerset construction. Both types of automata recognize only regular languages. Non-deterministic finite state machines are sometimes studied by the name subshifts of finite type. Non-deterministic finite state machines are generalized by probabilistic automata, which assign a probability to each state transition.

    The systems studied in chaos theory are deterministic. If the initial state were known exactly, then the future state of such a system could be predicted. However, in practice, knowledge about the future state is limited by the precision with which the initial state can be measured.

    TE - Thermodynamic Equilibrium
    In thermodynamics, a thermodynamic system is said to be in thermodynamic equilibrium when it is in thermal equilibrium, mechanical equilibrium, radiative equilibrium, and chemical equilibrium. The word equilibrium means a state of balance. In an equilibrium state, there are no unbalanced potentials (or driving forces) with the system. A system that is in equilibrium experiences no changes when it is isolated from its surroundings.

    The opposite of equilibrium systems are nonequilibrium systems that are instantaneously off balance.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamics

    Non-equilibrium thermodynamics
    Non-equilibrium thermodynamics is a branch of thermodynamics that deals with systems that are not in thermodynamic equilibrium. Most systems found in nature are not in thermodynamic equilibrium because they are not in stationary states, and are continuously and discontinuously subject to flux of matter and energy to and from other systems. The thermodynamic study of non-equilibrium systems requires more general concepts than are dealt with by equilibrium thermodynamics. Many natural systems still today remain beyond the scope of currently known macroscopic thermodynamic methods; the fundamental difficulty for macroscopic thermodynamics is in defining entropy for systems not in thermodynamic equilibrium.

    Beretta (1986), in an attempt to unify quantum mechanics and thermodynamics, proposed a generalization of the time-dependent Schroedinger equation of quantum mechanics, that postulates and implements at the single particle level the principle of maximum entropy production (even though, at that time, he named it "steepest entropy ascent dynamics"). Beretta (2008) has also extended his steepest-entropy-ascent nonlinear dynamical equation to model the time evolution of non-equilibrium probability distributions in discrete, non-quantum contexts.

    BMO - Bounded Mean Oscillation
    In harmonic analysis, a function of bounded mean oscillation, also known as a BMO function, is a real-valued function whose mean oscillation is bounded (finite). The space of functions of bounded mean oscillation (BMO), is a function space that, in some precise sense, plays the same role in the theory of Hardy spaces Hp that the space L∞ of essentially bounded functions plays in the theory of Lp-spaces: it is also called John-Nirenberg space, after Fritz John and Louis Nirenberg who introduced and studied it for the first time.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bounded_mean_oscillation

    Harmonic Analysis
    Harmonic analysis is the branch of mathematics that studies the representation of functions or signals as the superposition of basic waves. It investigates and generalizes the notions of Fourier series and Fourier transforms. The basic waves are called "harmonics" (in physics), hence the name "harmonic analysis," but the name "harmonic" in this context is generalized beyond its original meaning of integer frequency multiples. In the past two centuries, it has become a vast subject with applications in areas as diverse as signal processing, quantum mechanics, and neuroscience. The classical Fourier transform on Rn is still an area of ongoing research, particularly concerning Fourier transformation on more general objects such as tempered distributions. For instance, if we impose some requirements on a distribution f, we can attempt to translate these requirements in terms of the Fourier transform of f. The Paley-Wiener theorem is an example of this. The Paley-Wiener theorem immediately implies that if f is a nonzero distribution of compact support (these include functions of compact support), then its Fourier transform is never compactly supported. This is a very elementary form of an uncertainty principle in a harmonic analysis setting. See also Convergence of Fourier series.

    Fourier series can be conveniently studied in the context of Hilbert spaces, which provides a connection between harmonic analysis and functional analysis.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmonic_analysis

    Harmonic
    A harmonic of a wave is a component frequency of the signal that is an integer multiple of the fundamental frequency.
    Many oscillators, including the human voice, a bowed violin string, or a Cepheid variable star, are more or less periodic, and so composed of harmonics.

    Most passive oscillators, such as a plucked guitar string or a struck drum head or struck bell, naturally oscillate at not one, but several frequencies known as partials. When the oscillator is long and thin, such as a guitar string, or the column of air in a trumpet, many of the partials are integer multiples of the fundamental frequency; these are called harmonics. Sounds made by long, thin oscillators are for the most part arranged harmonically, and these sounds are generally considered to be musically pleasing. Partials whose frequencies are not integer multiples of the fundamental are referred to as inharmonic and are sometimes perceived as unpleasant.

    The untrained human ear typically does not perceive harmonics as separate notes. Rather, a musical note composed of many harmonically related frequencies is perceived as one sound, the quality, or timbre of that sound being a result of the relative strengths of the individual harmonic frequencies. Bells have more clearly perceptible inharmonics than most instruments. Antique singing bowls are well known for their unique quality of producing multiple harmonic partials or multiphonics.

    Abstract
    We propose first protocol for anonymous distribution of quantum information that can be used to implement either channel with anonymous sender or channel with anonymous receiver. Our protocol achieves anonymity and message secrecy with unconditional security. It uses classical anonymous transfer. It tolerates disruption of the protocol, but the number of disrupters must be limited by the quantum Gilbert-Varshamov bound. This bound can be exceeded provided a specific entanglement distillation procedure will be used. A different version of the protocol tolerates any number of disrupters, but is secure only when receiver does not actively cooperate with other corrupted participants. A simplified version of this protocol was experimentally realized for 5 participants, but with different motivation [see Zhao et al., 2004].

    Quantum broadband becomes reality
    10:52 20 April 2010 by Colin Barras
    The first high-speed network link that is so secure it is theoretically unbreakable has been created, thanks to quantum physics. A team at Toshiba Research Europe in Cambridge, UK, has sent encrypted data at over 1 megabit per second along 50 kilometres of optical fibre. That's fast enough to stream video.

    Secure links like Toshiba's involve one user sending a secret "key" to the other, encoded into the quantum properties of a string of single photons. Quantum mechanics ensures that any attempt to intercept this quantum key will change it, revealing the attack.

    Until now, the fastest way to send the encoded photons was through the air, but the best spanned not much more than 700 metres. For quantum encryption to be practical, the photons need to travel further and use existing infrastructure, such as the optical fibre that already forms the internet's backbone.

    Unfortunately, optical fibre can only transmit light over long distances when it is of a certain wavelength. Individual photons of that wavelength are difficult to detect, but Toshiba has now developed a detector that can pick them up.

    Quantum Broadband Network is So Secure It's Unbreakable (in Theory)
    By Clay Dillow Posted 04.20.2010 at 11:19 am

    Optical_breakout_cable.jpg
    Unbreakable Encryption for Optical Cable Data By relying on the laws of quantum mechanics as a security mechanism, Toshiba researchers have created a theoretically hack-proof high speed data link.

    In the world of IT, it really doesn't matter how much data you can transmit if you can't send it safely and securely. Now, Toshiba researchers in the UK have created the first high-speed network connection that is theoretically impossible to hack, tapping the quantum properties of photons encrypt data that was beamed through more than 30 miles of optical cable.

    Quantum encryption involves one party sending a "key" to another party that is embedded in the quantum properties of a photon string. The laws of quantum mechanics protect this data, ensuring that if any third party messes with the quantum key, the key will be altered and the foul play will become evident.

    While this concept isn't new, it wasn't previously feasible. The most efficient way to pass encoded quantum strings back and forth was through the air, but even the best attempts at that could only transmit the key several hundred meters. Toshiba was seeking a way to integrate quantum broadband into existing infrastructure that would allow photon transmission across greater distances.

    Of course, sending photons through existing optical fiber isn't new either, but Toshiba's breakthrough came on the back of a new photon detector that can actually pick up individual photons at the hard-to-detect wavelengths required for long-distance data transmission. The transfer rates are nothing to scoff at either; the1 megabit-per-second data speeds the team achieved are fast enough to stream video.

    So quantum physics is being applied to advance technology, maybe we need to do some research to understand how this changes our lives and the way we perceive the world...

    Other Numbers
    234 - 2 + 3 + 4 = 9

    Could it be 3 x 9 as in 999

    A friend of Michael Jackson for 20 years, Chopra has been criticized for his frequent references to the relationship of quantum mechanics to healing processes.

    Quantum mysticism.
    Quantum mysticism refers to a set of metaphysical ideas and associated practices that supposes a consciousness, intelligence, or otherwise mystical component to the experience of existence or reality at the quantum scale.The term originally emerged from the debates between the founders of quantum theory in the early twentieth century as they debated the interpretations and implications of their nascent theories, which would later evolve into quantum mechanics. The essential qualities of the early quantum theory, and the ontological questions that emerged, made the distinction between philosophical and scientific discussion difficult; however, quantum theory developed into a strong scientific theory.

    12/8/2009 3:00 PM PST by TMZ Staff

    Michael Jackson allegedly left his Las Vegasmansion in shambles -- this according to the latest in an endless stream of creditor's claims filed against the estate.

    Aner Iglesias is demanding $234,000 from Michael's estate, to repair damages to the exterior and interior of the home, and to replace the phone and alarm system.

    Aner claims the $234k is just an estimate -- the price tag may go up.

    CERN Atom Smasher Sets New Record
    The European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) has developed the fastest proton accelerator in the history of science — the Hadron Collider, which accelerated its twin beams of protons to an energy of 1.18 TeV on November 30, breaking the previous world record of 0.98 TeV, which had been held by the U.S. Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory's Tevatron collider since 2001. The collider used by CERN enables scientists to probe a little closer to the first moments of the universe which should help scientists answer questions which have now remained unanswerable. Although the new collider will help physicists learn more than they know now, experimentally, the fundamental theoretical problems of physics remain as elusive as ever.

    Going back to the first trillionth of a second of the universe may appear to explain a lot about nature, but the experiences of the physical sciences over the last eighty years or so has invariably led to more questions arising out of the results of experiments. The explosion of subatomic particles which result from very high acceleration of particles — “atom smashing” — moves science away from simplicity and toward greater complexity.

    Some of the theoretical explanations that are now serious scientific propositions, like Superstring Theory, have not led to the simplicity which was once the hallmark of great science. In fact, Superstring Theory itself, which is one of the “Theories of Everything” that physicists have been seeking since Quantum Physics postulated descriptions of reality, have led to almost surreal possibilities like the almost infinite proliferation of universe, which has itself now blossomed into at least five different Superstring Theories.

    E - in physics "E" is the symbol for Energy.

    State - Is a phase
    There are four states, or phases, of matter. They are:
    * Solid
    * Liquid
    * Gas
    * Plasma

    Me - stands for Electron Mass


    In quantum mechanics and other fields "Blow-off" is also known as Ablation. Specifically in physics "Blow-off" can refer to an electron or proton being "blown off" by the energy created or the light that is reflected when using a laser etc. Lasers are being used to slow down or "cool" atoms.

    Applied Physics B: Lasers and Optics
    Abstract
    Two different methods for plasma-density measurement using blow-off neutral source were performed on the MT-1 tokamak. The two methods produce nearly the same results, but the pure blow-off method is the less precise. The blow-off combined with laser-induced fluorescence requires a complicated experimental arrangement and a simple evaluation, while the pure blow-off method demands a simpler experimental set-up and a complicated evaluation.

    Edge plasma density measurement by laser blow-off method
    Journal Plasma Physics and Controlled Fusion
    Abstract
    The edge plasma density versus plasma radius function of the MT-1 Tokamak plasma is measured by a new laser blow-off method. A thin film of sodium evaporated on a glass substrate is brown off by a Q-switched ruby laser pulse. The enhanced shortening of the pulse of neutrals was observed along the beam propagation toward the plasma center by measuring the resonance light intensity of atoms excited by the plasma electrons. The density of the plasma is calculated from the measured exponential time decay of the blow-off-light pulse without any further calibrating measurements.

    Old Quantum Theory
    The old quantum theory was a collection of results from the years 1900–1925 which predate modern quantum mechanics. The theory was never complete or self-consistent, but was a collection of heuristic prescriptions which are now understood to be the first quantum corrections to classical mechanics.The Bohr model was the focus of study, and Arnold Sommerfeld made a crucial contribution by quantizing the z-component of the angular momentum, which in the old quantum era was inappropriately called space quantization (Richtungsquantelung). This allowed the orbits of the electron to be ellipses instead of circles, and introduced the concept of quantum degeneracy. The theory would have correctly explained the Zeeman effect, except for the issue of electron spin.

    The main tool was Bohr Sommerfeld quantization, a procedure for selecting out certain discrete set of states of a classical integrable motion as allowed states. These are like the allowed orbits of the Bohr model of the atom, the system can only be in one of these states, and not in any states in between. The theory did not extend to chaotic motions, because it required a full multiply periodic trajectory of the classical system for all time in order to pose the quantum conditions.

    The old quantum theory lives on as an approximation technique in quantum mechanics, called the WKB method. Semi-classical approximations were a popular research subject in the 1970s and 1980s, after Gutzwiller discovered a semi-classical description for systems which are classically chaotic (see quantum chaos http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_chaos).

    The Bohr Model
    In atomic physics, the Bohr model, devised by Niels Bohr, depicts the atom as a small, positively charged nucleus surrounded by electrons that travel in circular orbits around the nucleus—similar in structure to the solar system, but with electrostatic forces providing attraction, rather than gravity. This was an improvement on the earlier cubic model (1902), the plum-pudding model (1904), the Saturnian model (1904), and the Rutherford model (1911). Since the Bohr model is a quantum physics-based modification of the Rutherford model, many sources combine the two, referring to the Rutherford–Bohr model.

    Introduced by Niels Bohr in 1913, the model's key success lay in explaining the Rydberg formula for the spectral emission lines of atomic hydrogen. While the Rydberg formula had been known experimentally, it did not gain a theoretical underpinning until the Bohr model was introduced. Not only did the Bohr model explain the reason for the structure of the Rydberg formula, it also provided a justification for its empirical results in terms of fundamental physical constants.

    The Bohr model is a primitive model of the hydrogen atom. As a theory, it can be derived as a first-order approximation of the hydrogen atom using the broader and much more accurate quantum mechanics, and thus may be considered to be an obsolete scientific theory. However, because of its simplicity, and its correct results for selected systems (see below for application), the Bohr model is still commonly taught to introduce students to quantum mechanics, before moving on to the more accurate but more complex valence shell atom. A related model was originally proposed by Arthur Erich Haas in 1910, but was rejected. The quantum theory of the period between Planck's discovery of the quantum (1900) and the advent of a full-blown quantum mechanics (1925) is often referred to as the old quantum theory.

    From the December 2009 Scientific American Magazine
    Splitting Time from Space—New Quantum Theory Topples Einstein's Spacetime
    Buzz about a quantum gravity theory that sends space and time back to their Newtonian roots

    Was Newton right and Einstein wrong? It seems that unzipping the fabric of spacetime and harking back to 19th-century notions of time could lead to a theory of quantum gravity.

    Physicists have struggled to marry quantum mechanics with gravity for decades. In contrast, the other forces of nature have obediently fallen into line. For instance, the electromagnetic force can be described quantum-mechanically by the motion of photons. Try and work out the gravitational force between two objects in terms of a quantum graviton, however, and you quickly run into trouble—the answer to every calculation is infinity. But now Petr HoYava, a physicist at the University of California, Berkeley, thinks he understands the problem. It’s all, he says, a matter of time.

    More specifically, the problem is the way that time is tied up with space in Einstein’s theory of gravity: general relativity. Einstein famously overturned the Newtonian notion that time is absolute—steadily ticking away in the background. Instead he argued that time is another dimension, woven together with space to form a malleable fabric that is distorted by matter. The snag is that in quantum mechanics, time retains its Newtonian aloofness, providing the stage against which matter dances but never being affected by its presence. These two conceptions of time don’t gel.

    The solution, HoYava says, is to snip threads that bind time to space at very high energies, such as those found in the early universe where quantum gravity rules. “I’m going back to Newton’s idea that time and space are not equivalent,” HoYava says. At low energies, general relativity emerges from this underlying framework, and the fabric of spacetime restitches, he explains.

    HoYava likens this emergence to the way some exotic substances change phase. For instance, at low temperatures liquid helium’s properties change dramatically, becoming a “superfluid” that can overcome friction. In fact, he has co-opted the mathematics of exotic phase transitions to build his theory of gravity. So far it seems to be working: the infinities that plague other theories of quantum gravity have been tamed, and the theory spits out a well-behaved graviton. It also seems to match with computer simulations of quantum gravity.

    HoYava’s theory has been generating excitement since he proposed it in January, and physicists met to discuss it at a meeting in November at the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics in Waterloo, Ontario. In particular, physicists have been checking if the model correctly describes the universe we see today. General relativity scored a knockout blow when Einstein predicted the motion of Mercury with greater accuracy than Newton’s theory of gravity could.

    Can HoYYava gravity claim the same success? The first tentative answers coming in say “yes.” Francisco Lobo, now at the University of Lisbon, and his colleagues have found a good match with the movement of planets.

    Others have made even bolder claims for HoYava gravity, especially when it comes to explaining cosmic conundrums such as the singularity of the big bang, where the laws of physics break down. If HoYava gravity is true, argues cosmologist Robert Brandenberger of McGill University in a paper published in the August Physical Review D, then the universe didn’t bang—it bounced. “A universe filled with matter will contract down to a small—but finite—size and then bounce out again, giving us the expanding cosmos we see today,” he says. Brandenberger’s calculations show that ripples produced by the bounce match those already detected by satellites measuring the cosmic microwave background, and he is now looking for signatures that could distinguish the bounce from the big bang scenario.

    HoYava gravity may also create the “illusion of dark matter,” says cosmologist Shinji Mukohyama of Tokyo University. In the September Physical Review D, he explains that in certain circumstances HoYava’s graviton fluctuates as it interacts with normal matter, making gravity pull a bit more strongly than expected in general relativity. The effect could make galaxies appear to contain more matter than can be seen. If that’s not enough, cosmologist Mu-In Park of Chonbuk National University in South Korea believes that HoYava gravity may also be behind the accelerated expansion of the universe, currently attributed to a mysterious dark energy. One of the leading explanations for its origin is that empty space contains some intrinsic energy that pushes the universe outward. This intrinsic energy cannot be accounted for by general relativity but pops naturally out of the equations of HoYava gravity, according to Park.

    So this research was conducted in 2008 and the paper was published in 2009. Maybe this is the reference to 2008/2009?

    And Michael said in TII:

    TMZ Another article published last year, and now repeats once more in the same month.



    12/8/2009 3:00 PM PST by TMZ Staff

    Michael Jackson allegedly left his Las Vegasmansion in shambles -- this according to the latest in an endless stream of creditor's claims filed against the estate.

    Aner Iglesias is demanding $234,000 from Michael's estate, to repair damages to the exterior and interior of the home, and to replace the phone and alarm system.

    Aner claims the $234k is just an estimate -- the price tag may go up.

    Thank you Paula, I just wanted to point out that this is repeated old news.
