The Greatest Game Ever Played 1959 Pierre de Coubertin “Athletic sports, like the Olympic Games, should be the only way to express and celebrate human potential, a way for the human species to express itself in an athletic way. But at the same time, in my opinion, they should be the last way in which to express it. We have seen that sports can turn people into fanatics. It’s time to create a society
The idea was to have two separate sources for our fuel.  One, a renewable and low-carbon one.  And one, something non-renewable, but low-carbon and sustainable.  The first we call ‘Sustain’ and the second we call ‘Flux’. ‘Sustain’ is our renewable, carbon-free fuel.  To produce this we mix water with hydrogen and oxygen.  We then use the electricity that comes from our ‘Flux’ to split the
The second way, is to do what the world does, and try to build up its own power to force change in the way things should be. The problem is that as soon as you start taking that path, you open yourself to the argument that you were not working for change but for your own advantage all along, that you just wanted the power and the control and the prestige, and never really meant to do anything. In both cases, you must keep in mind that neither way is truly
The 1990s saw a number of books that explored the ways in which science had been used as a way of defining masculinity, and the ways in which scientists had, in turn, drawn on concepts of masculinity as a way of describing their work. The 1990s also saw a rise in the number of science books and journal articles in which the gender of the authors was clearly stated. One of the most prominent books in this respect was A Mind for Numbers: How to
The only other way would be if the 419 was on the 519, and this would mean that the 419 is not in the city limits. That is a distinct possibility. The 419 does not appear on any city official maps. The 519 does. Anonymous said... Maybe I'll start my own search and find a different place for our 419 to live. Maybe in Florida. Maybe in California.
The American dream is built upon the ability to work for yourself, not for someone else. That is why a majority of Americans choose not to receive social security. Social security is the great big, socialist boondoggle that was passed by the democrats in the 1930s. The democrats have, for the last 80 years, been trying to get the public to support this idea that the government will take care of them. Of course
The first three words that came to my mind were "I know, but what?" My brain was so confused as to what the heck was going on. My mother is pretty much always telling me to "keep my head up and stay positive" when things get really bad in life. I've never really known what that meant. What she really meant was to just keep your head up and look forward instead of looking down. For me, that's really hard to do. I've been
The more people there are of a certain type, the more likely it is that they will find each other. If I have a large group of friends who are interested in one thing, it is likely that we will find each other and form a group. I am sure there are several of us. It is more likely, but still not certain. The same is true for interest groups. There are a large number of interest groups with similar interests. When these people are given the opportunity to find
The first thing to look at here is the location of the main body of the text. In this case it is just right of the two columns of the left column. The next thing to look at is the position of the first character of the first line, and the second character of the first line, in relation to the top of the frame. We notice the second character of the first line falls directly over the left side of the frame. In this case we also notice
The 1960s were a time of great change in the United States. New social movements emerged, including the civil rights movement and anti-war movement. The women’s movement emerged, and African-American and Native American activists also spoke out against injustices and called for change. The movement for gay and lesbian rights began to gather strength in the 1970s. In 1973, the American Psychiatric Association declassified homosexuality as a mental disorder. In
The most recent issue of the Economist had an article on the "New Global South", which noted that even though there have been some recent declines in investment in Africa, the continent is still receiving a lot of money from private investors. This is a good sign because as one of its authors notes, it is difficult to attract investment without good infrastructure. This is an important point that many people forget. The article has a nice example of the positive effects that investment can have on economic development. It is
The 6th to 8th centuries AD witnessed a massive increase in the number of monasteries. The monastery system was the major institution for the religious life in these times. The monasteries served as centers of education, art, and religious life for the surrounding population. Monks cultivated the land and kept the monasteries going. Monks copied manuscripts. Monasteries were the only institutions that offered education. The Byzantines were the first people to develop a system of writing. The Byzantines developed their own
The 2010 global food prices were 34% higher than those in 2008, and the Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO) projects prices to remain high at least until 2011. Many of the countries in the Greater Mekong Sub-Region (GMS) have had recent success in reducing poverty and malnutrition, and the region is generally more food secure than China. The most vulnerable in the GMS are the upland farmers who suffer from natural disasters and
The story continues as the heroes are led into the darkness to the city. They find a beautiful city but feel they are being watched. They notice a cloaked figure in the crowd and realize that the cloaked figure must be a man called “The Lord” or “Lord of the City”. The group decide that they must speak with the Lord and find out where they are and what their purpose is here. They notice that there are a lot of other people walking the streets but none
The “B” in H.I.V. does not stand for a particular drug that can be used to control its spread. Rather, it refers to a category of diseases caused by the same basic type of virus. The three most common human pathogens in this category are HIV-1, the virus that causes AIDS, HIV-2, and the virus that causes hepatitis B. As with other viruses, HIV spreads most efficiently when there is frequent contact between mucous membranes, such as those lining the
The 15th century marked the birth of what we now call high Renaissance art. It was a time when artists started experimenting with new techniques, compositions, and perspectives that had never been seen before. Artists like Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, and Raphael became masters of this period, creating some of the world's most famous masterpieces. For example, imagine walking into a museum and seeing a giant, lifelike statue of a man standing on top of a cloud. That's precisely what Michelangelo created
The 1980s were the most tumultuous in the modern history of the United States of America.  At the end of the decade the nation would look very different than it did at the end of the decade.  Ronald Reagan brought a new vision and a new energy to the White House, but at the same time he made enemies and created chaos.  There were no more “normal” days and we are still dealing with the problems he created today. In the mid 1
The "worst" problem in this problem set is problem #6, and it's a real doozy.  If you'd like to take a crack at it, I'll put my solution at the end of this post. We begin with our standard 2D vector representation.  But instead of drawing a vector that points directly up, we'll draw a vector that points in the direction of the gradient.  And instead of using the "r" variable

The problem of whether the United States will be the ultimate beneficiary of a free-trade agreement between Canada and Mexico, both of which have signed a deal with the United States, has raised the question of whether the U.S. Congress can refuse to ratify a free trade agreement based solely on the grounds that it might raise unemployment.  The answer is no.  The constitutional amendment establishing the treaty power explicitly allows the president to negotiate free trade agreements without congressional approval.  The constitutional amendment in question,
The number of ways n can be represented as the sum of 2 squares There are 400,392 positive integers (less than 600,579) that are coprime with 600,579. And there are approximately 50,383 prime numbers less than or equal to 600,579. ## Divisibility of 600579 m n mod
The New York Sun's headline on Monday? "UNHINGED AARON." There is some reason to believe that the NY Sun's readership has shrunk to "unsightly 110,000" from the "180,000-odd" it reached in the 1980s. Aaron said... I think the NY Sun article is interesting, but it's just an observation. He's made an
The most powerful and reliable method of reducing the probability of a car accident is by not driving at all. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, roughly 5,870,000 people die in car accidents in the United States every year. The next largest cause is medical conditions, which claim 500,000 lives. However, these statistics are deceiving. The reason why so many Americans die in car accidents is due to a lack of preventative measures
The idea that "in a world that's very, very far from perfect, it was wonderful to see people come together to build this place" has never changed, and he hopes the celebration of its 125th anniversary today will remind people of its significance. "It's not only a great example of what people can do when they pull together, but a reminder to everybody in the world that people can come together to build a better life for everybody, a better community for everybody and
The best way to keep yourself safe is to know when you’re in danger. Look at your surroundings and stay alert and aware at all times. Do not walk alone and make sure to stay with your group as much as possible. The other best way to avoid being in danger is to not engage with the perpetrator. Keep your hands up in the air and do not struggle. Do not resist, do not give the police any excuses to think you are armed or dangerous. If you
The three-month review by the UN’s Human Rights Committee (HRC) found that authorities, including members of the security forces, continued to commit serious human rights violations that included unlawful killings, arbitrary arrest and detention, torture, and excessive use of force. A new constitution that grants the presidency an indefinite term of office was approved by 84 percent of voters in a referendum in November. Critics of the new constitution argued that the term limit amendment, which was put to the vote by referendum
The “W” in a “W” is the symbol for the “weight” of an object, and “g” is the force of gravity. A common unit of force is the newton, which is abbreviated as “N.” ## Why is the symbol for weight kg? The kilogram is the unit of mass; it is equal to the mass of the international prototype of the kilogram. The metre, unit of length; it is equal to 1,000 kilometres
The United States and NATO have been under enormous pressure since the election to back President Biden from his election victory.  The pressure was brought to bear after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.  At that time the Biden administration took a stance that Russia’s invasion was a “provocation” and the US would respond, but it would do so without joining the fight.  Then, the US would support an international effort to sanction Russia and put the military pressure on. In addition to Russia’
The first was that the whole of the town was in a very uncertain condition. This I had reason to know from a personal experience. For a long time, owing to the condition of the town, I could not keep a stable at all; and finally at the commencement of this year I was obliged to give it up. At that time I was unable to keep a stable at all. The town was in such a state that it was impossible to have a stable
The "gift" I've given you, my dear, is the means of giving you the power to live a real life." "You are very good, sir," said Mrs. Thornhill, with a kind of grateful smile. "My poor child!" he murmured, taking her hand. A man who is good is almost always kind. He cares little for what you say of him, and cares less to know what you
The first thing that you should know about 3-D printers is that not all of them are designed in the same way. Therefore, they are not all suited for the same applications. There are two primary types of 3-D printers: fused deposition modeling and stereolithography. Both types of printers work using different technologies. Fused deposition printers heat up a material called plastic, which it melts and then deposits it to create a three-dimensional solid object. Stereolithography printers,

The "carpets" which are mentioned in the text are, on the contrary, described by M. Borel-Maurand (vol. i., p. 64) as being formed of a thick parchment made of the skins of sheep or goats. In the case of the "tapestry," the same authority thinks that the name is not to be taken in the sense of a tapestry (we have seen that tapestry and carp
The other side of the question is to find out, whether that which is now known to the human race, was unknown to men before the time of Moses. This must be ascertained by ascertaining whether or not such knowledge was necessary to the life and experience of men before the days of Moses, or whether they were acquainted with them from revelation. The Scriptures show that they were. If they were, then, in the order of nature they must have been revealed by
The first step was to build a 3D model of the human skull. We knew that all brain cells were initially present at the same time, and that some would die off and disappear, others would be reproduced, and some would migrate to other areas of the brain. Our model contained around 45 million cells. We built this 3D model of the brain by using the existing 3D scans of brains (1,2) that have been collected by the Human Connectome
The last few times I've gone to the mall, the first thing I've done is go buy a dress. I like shopping for clothes a lot, but that's because I love how clothes fit on me and how they look on me, and because I enjoy going to places to look at clothes and shopping. I love the excitement of trying things on and the suspense of not knowing if I'm going to like what I tried on. That's a bit of a perk to buying online...you
The answer is yes. I agree with your comments and we’ve had the conversation about it quite a bit. That was a really important insight that’s helped us evolve and become a better company. I think the other thing that I learned is that it’s really hard to build a culture. You have to have a vision and you have to have a strategy for what that looks like and then you need to align your product strategy and the way you hire around that. It
The most important part of this process is the assessment of the potential of the natural gas wells, because there are many factors to take into account in order to obtain economic returns from the project. The exploration work, from which it is obtained the feasibility study, is one of the most important elements to determine whether to produce the gas wells. It is a process that encompasses a wide range of studies aimed at identifying and analyzing all the elements that have to be considered in the economic viability of a
The most important thing is to understand what your business is trying to accomplish with the logo. This is the first step toward creating a successful logo, and if you get this wrong, the rest of the process will be doomed to failure. The best way to do this is to ask yourself the following questions: 1. What is the main purpose of the logo? 2. What message is it trying to convey? 3. Who is it designed for? 4. What
The only problem with this is that it's not at all obvious that you can always find such an $\eta$. It turns out that you can, though, and the proof of this is surprisingly simple (see the proof in page 205 of these notes by Michael Spivak). In fact, you don't actually need to know whether or not $\eta$ exists, you only need to know that it exists in a bounded sense. In the same section of Spivak's
The first part of the process is to develop a thorough understanding of your customer. In the case of a website or product, you need to know who they are. For example, are they men, women, young, middle-aged, older, married, divorced, children, single, professional, or unemployed? You need to know these details because the demographic influences how your potential customers purchase and use your products. What are their habits? Are they early birds or late-risers
The number of solutions of the system of equations 2x + y = 1 5x + 2y = 9. #### Question 10: Show that the system of equations x + 2y = 3, 2x + 3y = 4 has no solution. #### Question 11: Show that the system of equations 2x − 3y = 9, 3x − 4y
The two most popular approaches to the identification of potential sites of genetic variation are (i) the use of linkage disequilibrium (LD) to identify haplotype blocks in a data set, and (ii) the use of association tests to find signals of linkage with disease (Table 1). The latter relies on the assumption that a genetic variant that is linked to a disease phenotype is not randomly distributed across the genome but has some excess in a group of genes that are related to the disease in question [
The “I” in SIP is also the ‘I’ in “Internet”. SIP is the internet of voice. SIP is the technology that turns your phone into a phone, not just a modem. It allows your voice to be carried over the internet, rather than over a copper wire. SIP can also be the connection between your telephone and all other telephone devices in the world. SIP makes phone calls possible on your phone, and it allows the ability to place phone calls to all
The same is true of the many unfortunate persons who are reduced to the necessity of sinking into the deep sea of life. It is not only possible, but certain, that there are men so situated in society, who, through no fault of their own, are doomed to remain destitute of friends, and destitute of the necessary means of existence. We can not all have as numerous and as wealthy relations as do some; and we have seen
The world is not like this, that God may be made subject to it.” This statement is based on a common error, namely, that the world is ruled by a law. The fact is that the world is not ruled by a law but by God. The world, according to the Quran, is ruled by God, as we read in Chapter 6, “And in the heavens and the earth are there any gods except God. Nay, but most of them have no knowledge.”
The three men left together, the others waiting at the door for them to come out. The three sat down again and the old man took hold of the young man's hand. "Now then, Tod! Do you want to be a big man?" "Yes." "And you want to do well by me?" "Yes." "And you want to be good?" "Yes." "That's fine! And
The 1983 movie “Spartacus” had a very moving scene in which a slave has her head beaten in by a whip until her skull is split open. This is an image we won’t forget and it certainly sends shivers up the spine. If we are talking about cruelty to animals as a form of torture and inhumane punishment, then this is an example of such inhumane treatment. “Spartacus” was directed by Stanley Kubrick, a
The fact that a large number of people are using these social media sites and that the number is growing rapidly, it becomes increasingly more vital for marketers to focus their efforts on this new frontier of marketing. There are numerous ways to use social media to your benefit. You can start by building your following through contests, asking for feedback, or getting your fans to spread the word about your business. Marketing on social media can be a great way to get people interested in your business. With the help

The reason for the increase is that the cost of a home in the United States has increased steadily since the late 1980s. According to the S&P/Case-Shiller composite index, the median price of a home in the United States increased from $112,600 in 1989 to $190,500 in 2008, an increase of about 136%. This increase in the price of homes
The lamp-posts and fire-escape stairs of New York. "You're not going home?" he said, when I had finished. "Why? Don't you want to go?" "No--I don't," he said, bluntly. "I'm not going to go. I'm going to stay here a while." "To live?" He nodded. "To live here--and not to go home?"
The whole process of the making of this story is a living, breathing thing, growing as it progresses, and in no way dependent upon either the author or the reader. It has a life and vitality of its own, dependent upon the co-operation of each member of the production, and therefore we feel it our duty to give a clear and intelligible outline of this process. The writer of a story does not know whether the story will be a long one
The people of this country were the victims of a war to the knife which fought to the death, and, if God be just, they will be the happy conquerers of a victory so decisive as to be universally admitted. With this general view I have only to notice three things which we have witnessed, and which I do not hesitate to state, that they are as remarkable as they are striking. The first is the universal consent to the war with

The 12th annual American Diabetes Association's Clinical Research Day is taking place at the Hynes Convention Center in Boston, Massachusetts, on Thursday, September 16, 2010. The theme is, "Diabetes: It's More than Just Blood Glucose." One of the presentations will focus on the relationship between obesity and diabetes (as a topic). In her presentation, "Obesity and Diabetes: A Complicated Relationship," Barbara Biesecker, a geneticist
The most likely explanation is that the brain's neural circuits had been rewired by the body's natural immune cells - which the researchers found had migrated to the part of the brain that produces the dopamine. "We think that the immune cells had a very specific function in rewiring the brain to create this addiction-like behaviour," said Dr. Rita Goldstein, an associate professor in the departments of cell biology and biochemistry and molecular genetics at the University of Toronto and an author of the study.
The following are the five reasons why the 2016 Oscars may end up being one of the most boring ceremonies ever: 1.     There was an actual Oscar ceremony the night before, which means that we probably won’t see the actual Oscars for over a week. 2.     The Oscars usually air on Sunday night, but this year, they are going to air the night before, at the same time as
The American people never really liked the Soviet Union. It was a giant boogeyman created to scare them into acquiescing to the status quo. For decades, American culture has been saturated with a message that the Soviet Union posed an imminent threat to the American way of life. In fact, America is a country built on the backs of slave labor and other such atrocities, and the Soviets were not any different. The Soviet Union was a massive totalitarian regime, with a repressive political system that
The U.S. is not alone in its struggle with a growing problem. The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development reports that the average debt of the 33 countries in its group at the end of 2016 was $120,244 per adult. The median, however, was $24,680—nearly a factor of three lower. In the United States, the median is $18,531. How
The most notable of these is the LDS Church’s “Book of Mormon” which has no basis in reality. There is no archaeological evidence for the existence of any of the people or places mentioned in the book, no corroborating evidence for its alleged time period, and no historical or cultural evidence that anything resembling the story of the Nephites, Lamanites, or other civilizations was ever a part of the Americas. This is the same Mormon Church that has denied blacks the priesthood and banned women
Theorem 257  If a is a variable and a' is a root of some polynomial equation with a, then a and a' are linearly dependent. Proof   We first use the assumption that a' is a root of the polynomial equation with a, and show that a and a' are linearly dependent. That is, we show that we can express a as a linear combination of the two variables and a'. So if we let c be the coefficient of
The main point of this article is that you can add a new line to the middle of an existing sentence, and change a verb tense. You can even switch the order of words in a sentence. If you want to keep a sentence in the active voice, you can add a prepositional phrase, like in the following examples. In this sentence, the phrase to get the phone, the object of the preposition to, is added as a prepositional phrase. In this sentence, the phrase
The first thing I did was to get the whole family in the room and give them the same talk. My husband said he was glad to be able to have an opportunity to talk with them before I did so that he could answer their questions afterward. I have never seen a family get such an interest in something as they did in the talk. We all felt that we had come together for some purpose greater than ourselves. When we said goodbye to each other at the rail
The answer to that is a resounding “YES!” The reason you’re hearing about it now has to do with the recent acquisition of the company that makes Dyna-Flo by a company called Biofiltre. Dyna-Flo manufactures a series of devices that utilize a special kind of carbon filter called “biochar” to remove heavy metals from water. But Biofiltre has been looking for a way to make their system more profitable, and that’s
The story of how we got here is the stuff of legends: the stories of the origin of the universe, the development of the planet, the evolution of the living world, and the rise of the first complex organisms. From the birth of the first cells to the evolution of the first animal, the history of life has been one of stunning complexity and grandeur. Although we know quite a bit about this history, it is very, very hard to learn the history of the past from fossils because it
The reason the question asks for an explanation is because there is an assumption that when we talk about 'one of the two' this can be done in a 'non-mathematical' way. I assume that the 'non-mathematical' method would be to consider two cases: a) if the 3rd person is not in the room and b) if the 3rd person is in the room. So if the 3rd person is not in the room, then there
The same is the case with a horse, he knows the difference between a whip and a halter, and will turn right round, and bolt, and be frightened out of his senses at the slightest noise; while the cow will quietly nibble her way through the thorns which the horse will reject, though with great difficulty. This instinct for self-preservation is common to all animals; and it is not surprising that the more intelligent, such as horses, dogs
The 2005 earthquake in the central part of the country killed 80,000 people and left 20,000 more homeless. The Haitian government, which is pro-American and pro-capitalist, has been criticized by the United States, which has the power to block all foreign aid, for spending too much money on public works and not enough on security. Haiti’s President René Préval, a conservative,
The fact that she is a very wealthy business woman, she is an investor and has bought and sold a lot of houses and is also an advisor to a couple of very large developers and builders here in the area.  Her experience and business savvy will definitely have an effect on the outcome.  This is a very important project for her, and one that will have a tremendous impact on the city.  It is going to be an event! So as you can see, my business has been
The "Aw, what's the difference?" argument can be made if your only concern is the money. The reason I don't support either of them is because, ultimately, I think they will put the team in the worst possible place for years to come. It would mean either continuing to play the losing game that is 2011-2012, or rebranding the franchise (and therefore
The first thing you should do is to contact a licensed electrician to inspect your electrical service panel and electrical wires. They will tell you which wires are connected to each breaker in the panel and advise you on how to disconnect them if they are carrying high electrical loads. They can also install a dedicated ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) and provide other electrical upgrades to your home. If your electrician recommends you should move the circuit breaker that’s in the
The first thing you need to do is to ensure your children have a very good set of skills that allow them to understand how to use the language and communicate well. You need to ensure that you are able to explain what they need to know at the time they need to know it. It is a good idea to start out with very simple phrases and then work your way up to more complex ones. This is a very important part of being a great English tutor. There are a few things that you
The 32nd Infantry Division of the Army of the United States is on its way from the south. It will strike the enemy at Cracovia, south of the city, and will thus force the enemy back to the west bank of the Vistula, where the division can block his further advance. In this way we will be able to prevent the enemy from cutting off our divisions in the northeast." General Jodl then explained to the Reichsf
The way I see it, the only reason any of them are even thinking about the'recovery' (which they were hoping for all along) is because they can't see any other way forward in a world where they're up against two really bad policies, and both of those policies are being championed and actively supported by the president, with the help of an entire bipartisan congress. Here's some bad news for the people who are still hoping for a recovery. The recovery isn't coming
The last of the original five, as well as the only one to make it out of the group, is now a member of the Fool's Errands. - "It's the only one I could find, and it wasn't easy." - ―Ivan, after the Fool's Errands were formed The Fool's Errands are a group of people who, though they are not officially members of the Alliance, were part of a group of people
The New York Times in 1936: We know well that the New Deal would never have been introduced into the country had not the Congress been thoroughly overawed by the financial-industrial combination, and that the New Deal as a whole is simply the political expression of that overweening combination. The New Deal is therefore a reflection of the real economic power which that combination possesses, and not an expression of the popular will. The Times on the 1950s:
The only way to make this a reality is to vote. Please go to the polls on November 6 and do what you can to make this reality. The best part about this is that it is a win-win situation. The longer the Republican Party is out of power, the stronger our party will be. And the longer the Republican Party is out of power, the more power will flow to the middle class and down. Please don’t let
The two-player game mode is still here but a little more streamlined with less to do and less ways to make mistakes.  This is probably the most accessible mode in the game which makes it feel like it's more in line with the other FPS games.  It's still kind of shallow because the two-player mode is still limited in that you can't do much else but play as the same guy (though you can change weapons).  I guess they're trying to create
The _d_ and _p_ at the ends of their names, though not, according to some, the _t_ and _r_.) In a letter to the Rev. Dr. Johnson, 10th June, 1770, it is stated that the _r_ is a very difficult letter to a Scotchman, which he calls "a double _r_." And in the same letter it is said that the Scotch

The following section contains all the technical features. # Section: Technical Features 1. Input power of the DSP and the voltage and current of the power supply have to be the same as the power supply voltage. 2. The power dissipation of the DSP in the case of a temperature change is calculated based on the temperature change with the ambient temperature. The temperature change of the DSP is calculated by the following equation: $$T_\text{DSP} = T
The man was a strange figure, in a blue dress-suit and a red tie, with a green felt hat. He had no cane and his left hand hung at his side. On his face, the deep tan was covered by a network of wrinkles and small blue veins stood out on the temples. His head was bent low over his chest and he walked with a bent back. The detective was the first to speak. "Is this a friend or an ac
The _chance_ of his getting a drink of water in two hours was less than one in ten thousand. Yet no one, as it turned out, had to drink the water in the well. I am happy to say that my son is still alive. _The Lost River_ In the summer of 1878, my son and I set out, by way of the Bad Lands, for a tour of the Black Hills.
The "Museum of the Dead" at San Francisco's Alta Vista Cemetery offers another glimpse of what's possible with the human body in the age of the internet. The museum's founder, Jim Dombroski, has been collecting donated body parts for at least a decade. He has a skeleton, several brain-slices, a hand, a foot, a liver, a knee, an arm, a heart and many other parts. He uses the parts in his art
The story is told of a rich citizen of Athens who, when at a banquet, was interrupted in the middle of a sentence by a slave. When the interruption was repeated, the guest became exceedingly angry and said, "Do not you see how I am engaged? Do you not know that my attention is engaged? Have I not a matter of the utmost importance on which my thoughts are concentrated at this very moment? Do you not see that I am engaged?" "
The idea of a country without national borders makes it possible to have a country with a borderless society. What we find today, in the real world of nations and states, is that every country is in a sense at war with some other country. It is not just a question of military conflict; there is also a great deal of economic competition, and the more intense the conflict is, the more national governments rely on military power and on a certain degree of economic isolation. The idea of a
The Suez Canal was not, and is not, open for business. And the situation in Syria could not be worse.  The fact that it's not in the news doesn't mean that it is not the most important news on the planet. It means that the US and its puppets are winning in every way, even with all of its resources focused on preventing any movement of oil to the international market. Oil and war, like apples and oranges, are two sides of the same
The problem with this argument is that the way the government spends most of its time is in trying to promote things that are good for the country, rather than bad things. So you can’t claim that government spending increases the size of government, when the government’s real goal is to promote the public interest by expanding the public sphere. That is why it is so important to define “government spending,” and to try to see if what government does actually increases the size of government. The second
The two sides of the fence met up in a new way. The left had its ‘Red Guard’s’ and the right had its ‘Nazi’s.’ The Nazis did not exist in Germany, the left, though. The Nazi’s never held any power. The Nazi’s killed a mere few million. The Communists killed over 100 million. We have all this to do with ideology. The left will say they are not the Nazis,
The world is in a lot of trouble right now. And I don't know the answer to any of these problems, and in fact I don't think any of us do. But one thing I can tell you, we don't have to be a part of the trouble anymore. We can have some fun, we can get together. We can be kind to each other, and we can make this world a better place.

The 21st Century It’s hard to imagine now that when the iPhone launched, it was the first time people had a device that could make and receive phone calls from their pocket. It was revolutionary then. How much more exciting the future is going to be when we have our phones and computers merged together. In fact, there’s a good chance that by now you’re using a computer that’s integrated into your pocket. Your computer is on your
The "V"-series" and "A"-series" have to do with a different set of standards for the way the letters and numbers are spaced. They are all designed in the way that letters and numbers are best displayed for readability. So, the "A"-series fonts are designed for the most readable text for normal sized print, and the "V"-series fonts are designed for more difficult-to-read print, such as that found in many of today's magazines.
The man sat up and held his hand to his head, he could barely hear, his eyes closed. "What the hell was that, and why was I dreaming about it?" "Are you alright, my Lord?" "Yes. Now why am I awake? I must have overslept again." He sat up and pushed himself to the edge of the bed, his head aching and his eyes half open. "What day is it?" "It's Thursday
The most important step to getting your content noticed is writing.  We’ve all heard the old adage, “Content is king.”  Well, I believe this is especially true in social media.  Content is the basis upon which every social post is based.  It may seem silly to you, but it’s true.  If you are promoting something you are promoting content and in the social realm it’s very easy to get carried away promoting products or services.  In some cases

The last time I looked, the only thing the Democratic Party has done over the last 50 years has been to elect Democrats. And they're not even very good at that. Democrats lose badly in national elections when the Democrats are the ones running. They also do poorly when Republicans have control of the White House. They do so poorly in the House of Representatives that they now have a hard time even getting Democratic candidates into office. They lose badly in the Senate. They lose in local elections. They
The old cattleman's face was a study. He looked at the boy with the expression of one who would like to say much, but does not know just what to say. He glanced at the big man, who was busy with his mouth full of bread and meat. "You'll have to be contented with a'scuse, son," he said at last, and his voice was soft and gentle, as of one who would soothe an
