I was looking for some good art for offices the other day on my way to the dentist in Bergen County and I got to thinking how many celebrities change their name so as to change the numbers and thus numerology of it, for the purpose of obtaining a more creative or generally favorable vibration. That reminds me of a conversation I had with a friend recently: “alright I promised you some more details about the number 17. In the ancient texts, the number 17 is called “The Star of the Magi” and it is pictured as the 8-pointed star of Venus. This is symbolism of course but I found that fact interesting because you wear your ring on the finger which is represented by the Roman Goddess Venus. 17 was considered by the ancients to be a highly spiritual number as well as the image of Love and Peace. The number 17 indicates that the person or entity represented by it will rise above the trials and difficulties of earlier life. In addition, it indicates that the persons name may live on after they die. The 17 is considered to be a generally favorable and fortunate vibration but with one possible negative, and that is that these people sometimes do not get the credit and recognition they deserve despite being hard working and self-sacrificing (this may explain the art that you are sometimes inclined to choose. It kind of reminds me of some of the art in the office of my Bergen County dentist
but then again I suppose that most successful dentists, whether in Emerson, Oradell, Hillsdale or anywhere else in Northern New Jersey, have a nice dentist office in that way. Although they often rise to positions of authority, ironically it is sometimes a great burden of stress, anxiety, responsibility and too many hours of work. This
is not a definate, because the numbers influence but do not compel, and we have the free will to always choose the positive side of every vibration. (every number has both a positive and negative potentiality, it is our choices which decide which potentiality manifests). On the whole, 17 imparts the ability to rise above adversity in both the career and in personal relationships.

Roman Polanski case making Waves in Los Angeles
The Los Angeles community is abuzz right now because Hollywood has taken some flack for it’s backing of Roman Polanski.
He has retained a top lawyer but the power elite of Los Angeles (well, more specifically the Los Angeles film community) have largely rushed to his aide in this infamous case, or should I say, sordid saga. It seems many people have a “no injury, no foul” sort of attitude about the whole thing. Polanski himself has had his share of misfortune. He grew up in a German concentration camp and his wife and unborn child both suffered fatal injury at the hands of the manson family in that notorious case from the 60’s. Then in the 70’s he was forced to flee the United States and head to Europe, where he was able to continue his film career. The Europeans are less judgemental about this sort of thing, apparently. If you need a Los Angeles Injury lawyer then may I suggest Mansell, one of the finest injury lawyers in all of the city of angels. As it now stands, some analysts and writers are commenting lately that the film industry’s particularly strong support of the director is in fact clear evidence of just how out of touch they are with public opinion around the globe. Some publications are loudly motion picture people who have so visibly and publicly come to his aid, such as Harvey Weinstein of Mirimax Pictures, who called his conduct as a “so-called crime.”
Some of the other supporters in the industry for the beleagured filmmaker include Woody Allen (himself accused of improper conduct with a child), filmmaker Jonathan Demme, Sam Mendes, high profile producer Mike Nichols (producer of such films as the 1994 Thriller Wolf) and award winner Martin Scorsese, the director of films such as ‘Taxi Driver’, ‘Raging Bull’, ‘Boxcar Bertha’, ‘The Color of Money’, ‘Cape Fear’, ‘Goodfellas’ and also ‘Casino’. In any case, for Polanski’s sake I am kind of hope he remains in European jail for now. After all, American prisoners are noted for their distaste of child abusers. They generally respond in kind tenfold to such individuals.
