So, what you're saying is that she gravitated toward work that is commensurate with her own needs. Well done! What was it you do for a living again?

but "disempowerment" would indicate that a person at one time had it, and then it got dissed, no?

Paul and Ringo ... it's down to those two now, isn't it. huh.

that's a fake argument on their part. The ground between and below the collectors is still usable I'm not defending the practice with heart and soul, just saying that it's not as cut and dried as the Grünen would like it to be.

hahaha that was a great read, Nunga :-) but not everyone is amused:

unless you work as a qigong teacher :-)

I just can't never pass on a opportunity to quote the wise Granny Weatherwax: "Right. Right. That's people for you. Now if I'd seen him, really there, really alive, it'd be in me like a fever. If I thought there was some god who really did care two hoots about people, who watched 'em like a father and cared for 'em like a mother...well, you wouldn't catch me sayin' things like 'there are two sides to every question' and 'we must respect other people's beliefs.' You wouldn't find me just being gen'rally nice in the hope that it'd all turn out all right in the end, not if that flame was burning in me like an unforgivin' sword. And I did say burnin', Mister Oats, 'cos that's what it'd be. You say that you people don't burn folk or sacrifice people anymore, but that's what true faith would mean, y'see? Sacrficin' your own life, one day at a time to the flame, declarin' the truth of it, workin' for it, breathin' the soul of it. That's religion. Anything else is just...is just bein' nice. And a way of keeping in touch with the neighbors." http://www.masterzdm.com/NCD/showflat.php?Cat=&sigs=&Board=DEBATEA&Number=485186&page=2&view=collapsed&sb=3&o=&fpart=1 edit: now that I think about it, I believe there's no separation between faith and belief in German. But I may be mistaken. Interesting ... time to go to work.

Actually, I believe the word used was 'Glaubenssache' ;-) It covers belief and faith in one fell swoop.

I met a Saudi Arabian physicist in Cologne, a university professor, shortly after 9/11. He was a devout Muslim, and told the story of having his offices and home raided, and all his computers taken into custody. I asked him how he can be a strict Muslim, a religious believer, and physicist at the same time. I said something like his religion is based on pure belief and contradicts his scientific knowledge. He said no, you're wrong. Physics is also belief. There is no contradiction.

I see what you did there :-)

O wow, I want that :-) Look into The Dynamics of Standing Stil, by Peter den Dekker (also DDutch) I think you'll find it an elucidating enhancement to this book

thanks for the reminder :-) This thing just went online: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ivanpah_Solar_Power_Facility Looks like incredible engineering, but I wonder about something. I think the loss of power from the site all the way to San Fansisco is going to be substantial. I hope this doesn't turn into a boondoggle.

like chemikaze manipulating atoms fun, profit, life, death
