LT112: The Dr. Cheng Video

IS IT COLD IN HERE? HO-HO-HO

LOST has thrown a lot of cold-related references at us including the Santa catchphrase, “Ho-ho-ho”. Guess what? They’re back!

In the summer game, on the Octagon Recruiting website we see this:



Can you make out the H and O?


WILL THE REAL DR. MARVIN CANDLE PLEASE STAND UP?

Really old fans of LOST might recall the TV game show where three contestants claimed to be the same person. A panel would ask questions in an attempt to discover the real claimant. Well, it seems we have been playing a version of that game with Dr. Marvin Candle, Dr. Edgar Halliwax and Dr. Mark Wickman. As you will see, the good doctor’s real name is Dr. Pierre Cheng.

First, you must watch the video here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dn_dNsaz-AA

Dr. Cheng was a professor of astrophysics in Lansing, Michigan. This is where the DeGroots were studying.


VIDEO ANALYSIS and THEORY

FACT: There are at least two people in the room with Dr. Cheng. A baby we hear crying. Dr. Cheng mentions the baby is a boy.

THEORY: The baby is Aaron and Claire is also present.

CONFLICT: It sounds as if Cheng uses the name “Jennifer” when asking that the baby be removed from the room.

REBUTTAL: There is a Jennifer in LOST…it is Henry Gale’s wife’s name.

**

Same facts as above.

THEORY: The baby is Miles and belongs to Dr. Cheng and his wife “Jennifer”. Miles is on the island to try and contact his dead father, Dr. Cheng/Candle. Miles gift is present in all of us, but studies by Dharma brought his out.

CONFLICT: None really.

REBUTTAL: Is this the Children of the Island? Miles born here. Charlotte born here. Daniel born here or just the nutty professor? Locke was born here. And Rose – anyone that heals, which would include Mr. Patchy, were all here.

**

FACT: We hear a man speaking. The voice of the man sounds a lot like Daniel Faraday. He is running the camera.

THEORY: Daniel was off the coast of the island in a raft when the island moved. Perhaps being on the edge of the event horizon he was thrown back to 1974.

CONFLICT: Daniel would have to be near 70 years old if he relived his life again from 1974, assuming is age of 40 as we know him on the island. Which is the conflict: he sure looks good for 70.

REBUTTAL: If he can jump once, he can jump twice.

**

FACT: A red-headed woman is seen on the video.

THEORY: Charlotte is present at the taping.

CONFLICT: She was island-bound when it jumped to October 2005 (Ben’s jump date at least). It would seem strange that she jumped “with” Daniel who was on the raft.

REBUTTAL: Perhaps time jumping is more controllable than Ben suggested. At least when it doesn’t involve the Dharma Wheel.

Enjoy,

LT111: Who Watches the Watcher?

DHARMA INITIATIVE AT COMIC CON

Are you thinking about a career change? Would you be interested in helping making the world a better place? How about working with her:



During the interview phase in San Diego one person was asked, “Who is your constant?”

To get an interview you needed an appointment and a security card:


Producers for LOST announced at the conference that Dharma was now a sponsor of the TV show.
TO THE MOON

Participants in the live testing were asked to pick a test best on eight names. The names are all names of Jupiter's moons. Jupiter is the 4th brightest star in the sky. The tests names were listed in their order by orbit except for the last one. Why only go out of order? That particular moon is named “Leda”.

Leda was named after the Greek goddess who was a lover of Zeus – who appeared to her as a swan.

Leda is also suburb of Perth, Western Australia.

SUMMER GAME UPDATE – The Project

After signing up at the Octagon Recruiting website, emails were sent to inform us that testing would begin online after Comic Con. I took the test and passed. Next it told me that weekly tests would be given and the highest scores for each job position they were filling would get a job offer. Wish me luck!

Some trivia regarding The Project:

* The first letter of each job position spells out Dharma Initiative
* It takes 16 letters to spell Dharma Initiative
* The first four job positions are the four areas of study from the Swan Orientation tape
* The spinning Octagon logo reveals the same markings as on the Dharma logo edges
* IVF Consultant position stands for In Vitro Fertilization – Juliet’s job
* The lead recruiter is named Hans Van Eeghen
* An editor on the show is name Henk Van Eeghen

WEBSITES

JEREMY BENTHAM

Also at Comic Con, the producers of LOST kept using a word over and over: panopticon. This the circular design of a prison where a central tower allows a single guard to keep watch over the greatest number of prisoners. The clever design meant that prisoners could never tell who or when someone was watching them.

So, who came up with this design? Jeremy Bentham. Here is his description of the place: “:A building circular. The prisoners in their cells, occupying the circumference; the officers in the centre. By blinds and other contrivances, the Inspectors concealed...from the observation of the prisoners: hence the sentiment of a sort of omnipresence--the whole circuit reviewable with little, or... without any, change of place. One station in the inspection part affording the most perfect view of every cell."

Is Ben Linus the watcher from that room with all the screens?

Were either Widmore Industries or Paik Heavy Industries involved in the design of the Dharma stations?

Were the passengers of Flight 815 all specifically pre-selected and brought to the island to undergo Panopticon-style observation as a group for their various crimes and behaviors?
Was the Santa Rosa Mental Institution, where Hurley, Libby and Locke's mother were all patients, a Panopticon?

QUESTIONS and COMMENTS

Use that comments link at the bottom of each post to “talk to me”. If you have a question you would like me to research, just ask. Have a theory you would like to be considered, just tell. Want to publish how many questions you got right from the quiz, just post. This will allow me to write to the specific interest you may have.

LT109: My Science Project

LITERARY CONNECTION EXPLORED

Robert Heinlein has been connected loosely with the show previously. I was led to him the other day and discovered a different book then the “Starship Troopers” book I was looking for. Fate is funny that way. This other book was entitled, “Lost Legacy”.

The concept behind this book is that some ordinary humans discover some hidden, repressed and psychic abilities they always had. Think Locke beginning to let his mind go places it normally wouldn’t go. Some call this “faith”.

Of course, some control freak in power want to kill this seed of thought before it grows, so they chase after the three. Think Ben somehow always seeming to be two steps ahead of everybody…and Desmond seeing the future, too.

The enlightened humans hide in some hidden city with the ancient masters. Think the Others.

The story goes on to explain that rebels of ancient times hid the history of humanity. Think the four-toed statue. The pursued humans of today are discovery this history and it is leading them to redemption. The history includes a specific series of events that led to humans losing a prize possession: the island of Mu. Think our island on LOST.

This is sort of interesting because it led to another piece of trivia that caught my eye: one source said Mu gets confused with Lemuria. This island exists in legends and was said to be located in the South Pacific. It is said that Lemuria is a sunken continent.


SUNKEN CONTINENTS

The theory of sunken continents grew out of the simple need to explain how certain species got to certain places. There is one place in particular on our planet that challenged scientist: Madagascar.
Yeah, the island of Madagascar. It even has a rock formation very similar to Ayers Rock in Australia which is known to be located on special global points and full of interesting lore and legend.

To get an idea of how odd Madagascar is just consider that 90% of the 10,000 native plant species are found no where else on this planet. In the animal kingdom, lemurs are just one example of a species found only on this island. Lemurs is from the Latin and means “spirits” or “ghosts”. Think Christian.

Lemurs. Lemuria. See the connections?



The strangeness continues with other animal and plant revelations in that the closest cousins are not found in the coastal area of Africa – the nearest land mass. Instead, they are found throughout South America, Asia and elsewhere. It made the scientist scratch their heads.

To explain the challenge, the scientist (think Dharma) suggested Madagascar was connected to other land masses and broke away (think island jumping) at some time (think the premise of the show). Or some places sunk. Lost islands and continents.

We have discovered a couple of places deep on the ocean floor that support this theory. One such place is off the coast of India and the other is Zealandia in the Pacific Ocean. Think our island again.

This sunken places served as bridges for animals, plants and geological formations to spread out before the land moved out to the oceans as an island…or sunk. Think polar bears?


PLATE TECTONICS

As time passes we get wiser and while some locations have been deemed sunken islands, Lemuria and Mu have not been met with such scientific validity. This is due to the theory of plate tectonics.

This theory says our seven continents are floating. Yeah, so much for people who said LOST Island couldn’t move because the island went all the way to the ocean floor like volcanic formation and the displacement of that much mass would cause tidal waves of major proportions.

Our continents do float, but they float on top of permanent rock which comprise our ocean floor. They float because the continent ground is comprised of some metallic mixture that is lighter than the magnesium-based ground that they float upon. Metal composition?

So, what if that black rock stuff is light enough to float on top of the water?


LEMURIANS

Keep an ear open for this word which describes the original inhabitants of the island. Many authors have claimed that Lemurians were a “root-race” but died off over time. Or maybe they went into hiding? Other authors claim the ancients living in the hidden city is a city hidden in tunnels of Mount Shasta. Think tunnels in Ben’s bedroom and Orchid hatch.

One of the more popular descriptions of a Lemurian’s physical characteristics would make you think of lizard people. Think that old TV show called “V”. If you remember that show, pat yourself on the back. On second thought, have someone else pat you on the back – if you remember it you probably no longer can pat your own back.

And if you think lizard like, you get into all kinds of religious symbols like Ganesh (read earlier postings for more) with the four-toes and other neat things. All I’m saying is that if GIECO becomes a sponsor of LOST next season and you own a pet lizard, it might be time to consider adding another extra heavy brick on top of that aquarium you house it in!

Hey, it is something to think about in July.


THUMBS UP OR DOWN

Producers Cuse and Lindelof sat down and reviewed the 10 best user-submitted theories. We voted on the 10 best and then they gave their thumbs up or down. Here are some notes from the ones they liked:

THEORY 1: Abaddon kidnaps Aaron and uses him for experiments. One evil test goes wrong and Aaron is stuck between dimensions. His contact to our dimension is limited to using someone like Christian as a go between. The grown-up Aaron is Jacob. Jacob is manipulating history in a time loop. Only with one of the survivors help, Jack maybe, and John’s leadership can Jacob avert the evil test that imprisoned him. Each of the Oceanic 6 have a part to play back on the island. Jack and Kate will complete their destiny and live happily ever after on the island until they die a peaceful death in the cave as our Adam and Eve.

CUSE: The fluidity of space-time is something which is very much on the right track in this theory.

LINDELOF: This is a great theory because it’s time-travel-related and it’s saying Aaron is Jacob. … There were people earlier this season who were thinking that Harold Perrineau (Michael) was playing a grown-up version of (son) Walt. People keep going to this place. It’s sort of a great Rod Serling Twilight Zone device — a future version of yourself comes back and warns a younger version of yourself not to do something or to do something. But we’re not dealing in paradox.

**

THEORY 2: Dharma is trying to get back to the island to finish its work with the Valenzetti Equation. Ms. Hawking (lady in jewelry story) was a former Dharma scientist during the first “incident” mentioned in the Swan Orientation. She now can do what Desmond can, see the future. Likewise, she survives by finding her constant, Brother Campbell (she is in a picture with him). She is working with the Others to course correct things, to get everyone in their proper place so Dharma can regain control of the island.

CUSE: As a matter of fact, we can’t even comment on it too much because there’s a lot in here that’s pretty accurate. I will say that this person is going to really respond to Season 5 and feel very superior to everyone else.

LINDELOF: Then, in Season 6, we will crush their spirits and prove them wrong. And until then, they should enjoy the ride.

**


THEORY 3: One explains the circle of ash that keeps Jacob contained in the cabin.

CUSE: I like the mention of the circle of ash, and I think as a result we want to award this theorist the right to use Circle of Ash as a band name.

LINDELOF: This is fairly original thinking but pretty far off base.

**

THEORY 4: Widmore, Paik and Hanso are three kings fighting for some ancient land.

CUSE: They might be losing a king.

LINDELHOF: I feel the idea of drawing a connection between Widmore and Paik is very prescient.


**

The runner-up theories were not well received which means the thumbs up theories got the award by default. But do pick up their clues like “might be losing a king” and “time-space stuff”.

LT108: Comics - They Are Not Just For Kids

COMIC CON IS COMING

We expect an update on LOST and Octagon Recruiting from Comic Con in San Diego this week. In the past, the producers have shown up with something interesting. Two years back, their Q&A session was interrupted by Rachael Blake of the Lost Experience game. Last year, they showed the Orchid Orientation video in all its glory. And we know that Octagon is recruiting for the Dharma Initiative this year.

Another thing LOST TIDBITS is keeping an eye open for is a series of workshops labeled “The World of Scott Ditko”. Scott Ditko is the artist of the comic book story, “March Has 32 Days”. This comic story was in the comic book that Richard offered to Locke when asking John to choose the items that were his. See earlier LOST TIDBITS post for more details on this story.

If you don’t wish to sift through past postings, then here is a nice link:
http://www.mysterytales40.com/march-has-32-days-last-story-from-the-mystery-tales-40-comic-book-96555

And the producers always tip their hand about something during their Q&A session, so keep checking back for your updates.


SPEAKING OF OCTAGON RECRUITING

It seems that the web site is gaining dots. Yes, tiny dots on its logo. The pattern seems to be that of doubling up. Last check we were at 32 and the time before 16. Wait, it had 24 at one time too. Ok, forget the doubling pattern but do check it out. If you recognize some image, post a comment here. My personal feeling is that it is filling in some kind of image that will reveal a secret of some sort. Some say if you squint, it looks like a butterfly. Could the message be metamorphosis?

It has also been observed that the logo could just be rotating 90 degrees each day. Gee, how many degrees did Ben turn that wheel?

The website for the dots is:
www.dharmawantsyou.com


CONNECTING THE DOTS

Astute readers must realize that I simply gather information from the 4,223,161,584 web sites about LOST and summarize the good stuff here. Yeah, you’re welcome. So be warned as this section is all mine! LOL!

I recall an old theory about time looping. It seems that looping has fallen out of favor with many, but these dots on the Octagon and the rotation of the logo and wheel prompted me to revisit the theory. The details are fuzzy now, but there was a post of mine about repeating 1962 and fixing the Bay of Pigs incident. However, the theory was that we only trade one crisis for another in the end.

For example, Desmond saw Charlie die in a vision about four times. Well, the final ones couldn’t have been true unless the first vision was altered…and it was. Wasn’t the first the lightning rod? Anyhow, this supported the looping or time adjustment concept.

So it is possible that with Ben turning the wheel we averted a disaster and are simply looping again? The test case for this theory is to pose to the Octagon recruiters at Comic Con this question, “Do you remember Dharma Initiative 1?” If they stare at me and respond, “This is the first DI that we know of.”, then I’m liking this re-do thing more and more. If the respond, “Yes, but this is better because of the lessons learned the first time”, then I’ll come back and delete this post!


HEROES

I know this isn’t LOST, but with a slow summer, I need content. And let us not forget the similarities we have found between the two shows. Imagine how pleasing it was to discover Heroes is doing little mini episodes on-line this summer. They have two up right now and it was great to see something new.

Check the two out here:
http://www.nbc.com/Heroes/Webisodes/?__source=ggl_imgcnt and keep checking back for new content. Oh, and don’t overlook that the mailman’s first name is Echo. For a total of six minutes of footage, this was some pretty cool eye candy.

And while there check out the comics - adult graphic novels is the term they use.


BATMAN – THE DARK KNIGHT

Again, nothing LOST related, but we did get the chance to see this movie and I highly recommend it. If you think Ben’s performance creeps you out, just wait until you see the Joker’s performance. I still have nightmares and it has been 4 days.

In my opinion, this film is not for kids whose age is only one digit. It explores the human nature of mankind like LOST does with its interpersonal dynamics. The difference is that no one wins any morality points in the film. But then, at one point I thought Michael was going to make a good father to Walt, so what do I know?


AND NOW A WORD FROM OUR SPONSORS

Avid readers of LOST TIDBITS know that I rarely even mention the ads on the upper-right corner of this blog. But if you could right-click and open the ad in new window once in a while, it would be greatly appreciated.

I promise I won’t mention this again for at least another time loop or two. HA! Seriously, I do appreciate the readers and expect nothing from you other than knowing you enjoy reading the postings. If you have the opportunity to click an ad once in awhile, it would be the best way to say thank you.

LT107: Black and White


LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION

Got to thinking about the Orchid hatch and the Dharma Wheel. You get a strong sense that the Dharma Wheel was there first. It is in a room with hieroglyphics in a crudely modeled room. One gets the feeling the room maybe have been larger where the person or animal attached the wheel could make a full circle. And it is deep. And cold.

To access the Wheel Room, one had to know it was behind the small teleportation pad thingy. This begs the question, why did the Dharma Initiative build a key piece of technology in the path of the tunnel?

Speaking of path blocking…we can recall one other ancient looking tunnel in Ben’s bedroom. Again, a prime entry way to something major and the Dharma Initiative builds a false house over/around it.

I’m seeing a trend here: location, location, location…the DI doesn’t want anyone to use these rooms. Why?

One thing is clear: The Dharma Initiative didn’t want SOMEONE to use those rooms.

Now recall the video Locke watched in the Orchid. It explicitly said what not to do in order to keep the room hidden. Some could argue that you just have a mirror image so you learn to always do the opposite of what the DI tells you to.

Again, the doctor in the Swan tape gave explicitly instructions on one thing: push the button. It stands to reason then that they should stop pushing the button to find the secret room. Except there is no room in the Swan unless you call the tunnel Desmond crawled into a “room”. Again, it was hidden as equipment was moved in order to access it.


NICKNAMES

As we know Sawyer has some of the best nicknames he hands out to fellow survivors. Now you too can get a nickname by Mr. Wonderful at this link:
http://abc.go.com/primetime/lost/index?pn=nickname

I entered my attributes and he called me “Abacus”. Give it a try and post your nickname in the comments if you want to share.


POPULAR THEORIES ABOUT JACOB

Jacob is some sort of super computer – man merges with machine. I’ve actually seen a lot of headlines in the news along these lines lately, so maybe not so crazy.

He could be based on Jacob Bauthumley, a 17th century shoemaker who had a hole drilled through his tongue for writing a controversial book called “The Light and Dark Sides of God”. This writing might suggest that the island flips between good and evil every 16 years.

You can tell which phase the island is in by the color of the shoes of the island’s spokesperson – for example, Christian wears white tennis shoes. In addition, the light side is by off-island births and then lose their father (Ben, John). The dark side by those born on island (Widmore, Aaron).


LOST AUCTION
