ellauri028.html on line 184: This was Twain's most serious, philosophical and private book. He kept it locked in his desk, considered it to be his Bible, and spoke of it as such to friends when he read them passages. He had written it, rewritten it, was finally satisfied with it, but still chose not to release it until after his death. It appears in the form of a dialogue between an old man and a young man who discuss who and what mankind really is and provides a new and different way of looking at who we are and the way we live. Anyone who thinks Twain was not a brilliant philosopher should read this book. We consider ourselves as free and autonomous people, yet this book puts forth the ideas that 1) We are nothing more than machines and originate nothing - not even a single thought; 2) All conduct arises from one motive - self-satisfaction; 3) Our temperament is completely permanent and unchangeable; and 4) Man is of course a product of heredity, and our future, being fixed, is irrevocable -- which makes life completely predetermined. If these points are true, then buying and reading this book is not in your control, but simply must be done because it was meant to be. If these points are not true you might still wish to make an independent decision to enjoy a thought-provoking book by a great and legendary writer.

ellauri038.html on line 106: Nietzsche jatkoi ennen kaikkea Immanuel Kantin ja Arthur Schopenhauerin subjektiivista idealismia. Nietzsche uskoi, että ihminen saa ympäröivästä todellisuudesta tietoa vain omien aistiensa välityksellä. Sen mukaan todellisuuskäsityksemme on äärimmäisen subjektiivinen. Subjektiivinen idealismi johtaa Nietzschen relativismiin ja skeptisyyteen.

He described his first orgasm — reached spontaneously while floating in a swimming pool — and, in deft yet fairly pornographic detail, an agonized, inadvertent climax experienced much later while giving a massage to a man who shunned Ollie’s love.

ellauri053.html on line 820: Prince Dwarkanath Tagore, my great-grandfather, was a romantic figure. Contemporary of Rammohan Roy, the Father of the Renaissance Movement of Bengal, he was closely associated with him in all his activities and rendered financial help when- ever required. The East India Company were by this time firmly established in Bengal and were rapidly building up their trade. Dwarkanath’s knowledge of English helped him to take advantage of the conditions prevailing under the Company’s rule and he was able at quite an early age not only to amass a fortune but also to gain high offices under the British. With Rammohan Roy he took a leading part in all the movements for the promotion of higher education and social welfare. There was hardly any institution founded during his life-time that did not owe its existence to the generous charity of Dwarkanath. He came to be known as Prince Dwarkanath in recognition of his benefactions. His business enterprises extended to fields unexplored by Indians in those days. He had a fleet of cargo boats for trading between India and England. To improve his business connections and gain further concessions from the Company, he himself went to England accompanied by his youngest son, Nagendranath. I have had occasion to read the diary kept by this grand-uncle of mine. It describes vividly and in very chaste English the social life Of the aristocracy of England in the early Victorian age as seen through the eyes of an Indian. There is also an interesting description of his adventurous journey across the country from Bombay to Calcutta at a time when India was in a very disturbed condition on the eve of the Sepoy Mutiny.

ellauri074.html on line 295: Antiikin filosofeista Ciorania kiehtoivat skeptikot ja kyynikot, erityisesti Diogenes Sinopelainen. Kaunokirjallisista teksteistä Cioran luki varsinkin Fjodor Dostojevskia ja Marcel Proustia sekä elämäkertoja. Pyhimyselämäkerrat ja mystikkofilosofit (varsinkin Pyhän Teresa Ávilalaisen tuotanto) olivat Cioranille erityisen rakkaita ja vaikuttivat merkittävästi hänen omiin teksteihinsä, varsinkin mystiseen käsitykseen ikävän luonteesta Cioran suhtautui historiaan intohimoisesti ja oli erityisen perehtynyt rappiokausien kirjailijoihin ja rappion teoreetikkoihin, kuten Oswald Spengleriin, jonka gnostilainen näkökulma ihmiskunnan kohtaloon ja sivilisaatioon vaikutti voimakkaasti Cioranin poliittiseen filosofiaan. Cioranin mukaan ihminen on voinut vastustaa rappiota niin kauan, kuin hän on pysynyt yhteydessä lähtökohtiinsa eikä ole irrottanut itseään omasta itsestään ja on ollut tekemättä mitään. Nyt ihmiskunta on matkalla kohti omaa tuhoaan, koska se on tehnyt itsestään objektin ja analysoi itseään loputtomiin. Cioran halveksi edistyksen ajatusta ja kuvitelmaa, että historia kuljettaisi ihmiskuntaa kohti suurempaa täydellisyyttä; siten Cioran myös vieroksui Hegeliä. Cioran oli tutustunut myös buddhalaiseen filosofiaan. Cioran tunsi suurta läheisyyttä Venäjää ja Espanjaa kohtaan, koska molemmat kansakunnat ovat menettäneet muinaisen mahtinsa ja koska uskonnollisella hurmoksella ja sen vastapainolla ateismilla on molemmissa maissa ollut niin suuri merkitys.
ellauri074.html on line 297: Koko Cioranin tuotannolle on ominaista pessimismi, jonka juuret monien kriitikoiden mielestä juontavat jo hänen lapsuuteensa (vuonna 1935 Cioranin äiti sanoi hänelle, että olisi tehnyt abortin, jos olisi tiennyt, kuinka onneton hänen lapsestaan tulisi). Cioranin pessimismi, tai oikeastaan hänen skeptisisminsä tai jopa hänen nihilisminsä, on kuitenkin ehtymätöntä ja omalla tavallaan jopa iloista; sille ei voi osoittaa yhtä selkeää alkuperää. Cioran itse ei pitänyt itseään pessimistinä ja katsoi skeptisyytensä liittyvän voimakkaasti mystiikkaan. Cioran onkin sanonut, ettei hänen äitinsä puhe abortista häirinnyt häntä, vaan teki häneen suuren vaikutuksen ja johti hänet voimakkaaseen oivallukseen olemassaolon luonteesta: ”Olen vain sattuman oikku. Miksi suhtautua siihen niin vakavasti?”
ellauri074.html on line 313: William H. Gass (kekä?) on kuvaillut Cioranin tekstejä filosofiseksi romanssiksi, jossa toistuvat nykyajan teemat vieraantuminen, absurdius, ikävä, turhuus, rappio, historian hirmuvalta, muutoksen rahvaanomaisuus, tietoisuus kärsimyksestä ja järki sairauden muotona. Tuotannon pääosa koostuu ironisista, skeptisistä ja ytimekkäistä aforismeista tai vähän pidemmistä fragmenteista. Mieltymys fragmentteihin liittyy sekä systemaattisia järjestelmiä kaihtavaan ajatteluun että tuskalliseen kielen vaihtamiseen romaniasta ranskaksi ja jopa laiskuuteen. Cioran piti fragmenttejaan ajatteluprosessin yhteenvetona, josta on jätetty pois lopputulokseen johtanut päättelyketju. Cioranin ranskankieliset tekstit ovat äärimmäisen hiottuja ja klassisten kielinormien mukaisia; klassinen tyyli perustuu osittain myös pyrkimykseen kirjoittaa vähintään yhtä hyvin kuin ranskalaiset kirjailijat; Cioran pitikin tyyliään ainoana vahvuutenaan, joskin vahvuus ei ollut hänen mielestään luontaista vaan kovan työn tulos. Cioran on usein puhunut traumaattisesta kielen vaihtamisesta, johon hän päätyi kääntäessään Stéphane Mallarmén runoja romaniaksi ja todettuaan, ettei ollut mitään järkeä kirjoittaa kielellä, jota kukaan ei ymmärtänyt. Hän sanoo kirjoittaneensa Hajoamisen käsikirjan neljä kertaa, ennen kuin siitä tuli niin hiottu, ettei jälkeä muukalaisuudesta ("métèque" - siis metoikkimaisuudesta) enää ollut. Vaikka romaniaksi kirjoitetuissa teksteissä esiintyvät teemat ovat pääosin samoja kuin myöhemmin ranskaksi kirjoitetuissa, ei Cioran itse pitänyt niitä tyylillisesti yhtä korkeatasoisina kuin ranskaksi kirjoittamiaan tekstejä. Hän suhtautui erityisen varauksellisesti romaniankielisistä teksteistä tehtyihin käännöksiin, varsinkin ranskannoksiin: hän ei kokenut pitkällisen kirjallisen perinteen ja kielenhuollon pysähdyttämän ja jäykistämän ranskan kielen voivan ilmaista asioita samalla tavalla kuin slaavilaisuuden ja latinalaisuuden sekoituksessaan joustavan romanian kielen Romaniaksi Cioran kirjoitti vaistonvaraisesti, ranska oli hänelle kuin pakkopaita.

Burke resigns, goes into his father’s business, becomes an ship’s captain immediately, gets himself in venereal trouble on Venus, and has to call on the Patrol to rescue him from his own self-centered and stupid mistakes. Matt, Tex, and Oscar do rescue him and, with that action, prove the worth of the characteristics—perseverance, loyalty, intelligence, idealism, integrity, and courage—that Heinlein champions throughout Space Cadet and the other novels in the series.

ellauri094.html on line 339: For today’s post we will tackle the question the Skeptic Annotated Bible asked: How long was the Babylonian Captivity?
ellauri094.html on line 340: Here are the answers which the skeptic believes indicate a Bible contradiction:
ellauri094.html on line 352: When dealing with skeptics’ claim of Bible contradictions it seems one can never be reminded enough of what exactly is a contradiction. A contradiction occurs when two or more claims conflict with one another so that they cannot simultaneously be true in the same sense and at the same time. To put it another way, a Bible contradiction exists when there are claims within the Bible that are mutually exclusive in the same sense and at the same time.
ellauri094.html on line 354: One should be skeptical of whether this is a Bible contradiction given the Skeptic Annotated Bible’s track record of inaccurately handling the Bible. See the many examples of their error which we have responded to in this post: Collection of Posts Responding to Bible Contradictions. Of course that does not take away the need to respond to this claim of a contradiction, which is what the remainder of this post will do. But this observation should caution us to slow down and look more closely at the passages cited by the Skeptic Annotated Bible to see if they interpreted the passages properly to support their conclusion that it is a Bible contradiction.
ellauri094.html on line 356: The skeptic tries to pit Jeremiah 29:10 as affirming the claim “The Babylonian Captivity was seventy years” against Baruch 6:2 as affirming “The Babylonian Captivity was seven generations.”
ellauri094.html on line 357: One must always ask if the skeptics properly interpreted the verses. Jeremiah 29:10 does affirm the claim “The Babylonian Captivity was seventy years.”
ellauri094.html on line 377: Thus there is no contradiction here. Seems the skeptic needs to learn of How to Handle Bible Contradictions.
ellauri094.html on line 378: We shouldn’t miss that worldviews are at play even with the skeptic’s objection to Christianity. The worldview of the author of the Skeptic Annotated Bible actually doesn’t even allow for such a thing as the law of non-contradiction to be meaningful and intelligible. In other words for him to try to disprove the Bible by pointing out that there’s a Bible contradiction doesn’t even make sense within his own worldview.

ellauri096.html on line 108: Notice that the eliminativist is more radical than the skeptic. The skeptic thinks the concept of knowledge is fine. We just fall short of being knowers. The skeptic treats ‘No man is a knower’ like ‘No man is an immortal’. There is nothing wrong with the concept of immortality. Biology just winds up guaranteeing that every man falls short of being immortal.
ellauri096.html on line 110: Unlike the believer in ‘No man is an immortal’, the skeptic has trouble asserting ‘There is no knowledge’. For assertion expresses the belief that one knows. That is why Sextus Empiricus (Outlines of Pyrrhonism, I., 3, 226) condemns the assertion ‘There is no knowledge’ as dogmatic skepticism. Sextus prefers agnosticism about knowledge rather than skepticism (considered as “atheism” about knowledge). Yet it just as inconsistent to assert ‘No one can know whether anything is known’. For that conveys the belief that one knows that no one can know whether anything is known.
ellauri096.html on line 116: The eliminativist has even more severe difficulties in stating his position than the skeptic. Some eliminativists dismiss the threat of self-defeat by drawing an analogy. Those who denied the existence of souls were accused of undermining a necessary condition for asserting anything. However, the soul theorist’s account of what is needed gives no reason to deny that a healthy brain suffices for mental states.
ellauri096.html on line 120: Probabilistic skepticism dates back to Arcesilaus who took over the Academy two generations after Plato’s death. This moderate kind of skepticism, recounted by Cicero (Academica 2.74, 1.46) from his days as a student at the Academy, allows for justified belief. Many scientists are attracted to probabilism and dismiss the epistemologist’s preoccupation with knowledge as old-fashioned.
ellauri096.html on line 184: The skeptic could hope to solve (K-0) by denying that anything is known. This remedy does not cure (K). If nothing is known then (K) is true. Can the skeptic instead challenge the premise that proving a proposition is sufficient for knowing it? This solution would be particularly embarrassing to the skeptic. The skeptic presents himself as a stickler for proof. If it turns out that even proof will not sway him, he bears a damning resemblance to the dogmatist he so frequently chides.
ellauri096.html on line 186: But the skeptic should not lose his nerve. Proof does not always yield knowledge. Consider a student who correctly guesses that a step in his proof is valid. The student does not know the conclusion but did prove the theorem. His instructor might have trouble getting the student to understand why his answer constitutes a valid proof. The intransigence may stem from the prover’s intelligence rather than his stupidity. L. E. J. Brouwer is best known in mathematics for his brilliant fixed point theorem. But Brouwer regarded his proof as dubious. He had philosophical doubts about the Axiom of Choice and Law of Excluded Middle. Brouwer persuaded a minority of mathematicians and philosophers, known as intuitionists, to emulate his inability to be educated by non-constructive proofs.
ellauri097.html on line 101: Mencken was a keen cheerleader of scientific progress but was skeptical of economic theories and strongly opposed to osteopathic/chiropractic medicine.

But they kept on plugging away in their laboratories without calling in either mathematicians or theologians to aid them, and eventually they discovered the isotopes, and what had been chaos was reduced to the most exact sort of order.
ellauri097.html on line 167: His later work consisted of humorous, anecdotal, and nostalgic essays that were first published in The New Yorker and then collected in the books Happy Days, Newspaper Days, and Heathen Days. Mencken was preoccupied with his legacy and kept his papers, letters, newspaper clippings, columns, and even grade school report cards. After his death, those materials were made available to scholars in stages in 1971, 1981, and 1991 and include hundreds of thousands of letters sent and received. The only omissions were strictly personal letters received from women.
ellauri097.html on line 420: Kant held that all rational persons have an a priori understanding of the basic principles of morality. These consist of duties, both to oneself and to others, and above all the duty to respect rational agents. Most persons, however, do not understand that morality is a priori, and their moral commitments are therefore vulnerable to corrosive skeptical criticism. In The Metaphysics of Morals Kant formulates the ultimate standard for moral judgment, namely universalizability, and establishes the rational necessity of morality.
ellauri097.html on line 424: The Protestant parson is the grandfather of German philosophy. The theologians’ instinct in the German scholars divined what Kant had once again made possible. The conception of a “true world,” the conception of morality as the essence of the world … were once again, thanks to a wily and shrewd skepticism, if not provable, at least no longer refutable. Kant’s success is merely a theologian’s success. [The Antichrist §10.]

He very roughly calculated that the annual gross domestic product of classical Athens was about 4,400 talents. If that is right, then 800 talents is a vast figure, 32 times the expenditure on the Academy. Foley is somewhat skeptical of the figure, though.

Pepys had no maritime experience, but he rose to be the Chief Secretary to the Admiralty under both King Charles II and King James II through patronage, diligence, and his talent for administration. His influence and reforms at the Admiralty were important in the early professionalisation of the Royal Navy.

ellauri112.html on line 186: »L´élan vital» on se elämän meri, jossa me olemme, liikumme ja elämme. Kaunopuheisen, mystillisen tunteen koko hehkulla kuvatessaan tämän elämän prinsiipin alkuperää, sen taistelua Materiaa vastaan ja ihmisen kykyä »intuitionsa» voimalla sukeltautua siihen takaisin, osoittautuu Bergson ikivanhojen mystikkojen täysveriseksi seuraajaksi. Renan ei ole missään antanut yhtenäistä esitystä kehitysopillisista teorioistaan. Mutta monista yksityisistä lausunnoista käy riittävästi ilmi hänen »vitalistinen» kantansa. »Kaksi seikkaa, aika ja pyrkimys edistykseen, selittävät maailman. Ilman tätä hedelmällistä edistyksen siementä jäisi aika ikuisesti martaaksi. Jonkunlainen sisäinen jousi, joka työntää kaiken elämään, ja yhä enemmän kehittyneeseen elämään, kas siinä välttämätön olettamus (Dialogues philosophiques, s. 177). Koko maailma on työssä ja pyrkii toteuttamaan jotain salattua tarkoitusta, se oli eräs Renanin rakkaimmista ajatuksista, jota hän skeptillisimmälläkin tuulellaan helli. Viimeisessä filosofisessa kirjoituksessaan, »Examen de consciance philosophique» (Feuilles détachées -kokoelmassa) sanoo hän pitävänsä pintapuolisina niitä vastaväitteitä »finalismia» vastaan, joita eräät tiedemiehet tekevät, huomauttaessaan luonnon epätäydellisyyksistä. Nämä vastaväitteet eivät estä olettamasta, että maailmassamme vaikuttaa salainen pyrkimys, syvällinen nisus, joka sokeana toimii olemiston kuiluissa, työntäen kaiken elämään, kaikissa avaruuden kohdissa. Tämä nisus ei ole tietoinen eikä kaikkivoipa; se tekee parhaansa aineesta, joka sillä on käytettävänään. Mutta ehkä se nisus, joka vaikuttaa maailmankaikkeuteen kokonaisuudessaan, eräänä päivänä tulee tajuiseksi, kaikkitietäväksi, kaikkivoipaiseksi. Jumala syntyy... Toteutuu niin korkea tietoisuuden aste, ettei meillä siitä voi olla mitään käsitystä. Ikuisuus tarjoaa loppumattomat mahdollisuudet. Absoluuttinen olento, päästyään kehityksensä päähän ja opittuaan täydellisesti tuntemaan itsensä, toteuttaa kenties kaikki voimansa avulla uskonnon: hurskasten ylösnousemuksen ja ijankaikkisen elämän...
ellauri112.html on line 188: Kaikki tämä kuitenkin lisäyksellä kenties. Päinvastainen tulos on yhtä mahdollinen; ehkäpä kaiken tuon pyrkimyksen tuloksena on tyhjyys; ehkäpä totuus on masentava... On puhuttu niin paljon Renanin »skeptillisyydestä». Jotka tahtovat olla oikein moderneja, hekkumoivat niillä »Dyb af Skepsis» (Brandes), joita he näkevät Renanin harmittomimpienkin ajatusten alla. Muistuu mieleen »keisarin uudet vaatteet» ... Vastakkainen leiri näkee tässä epäilyssä, tässä hiljaisessa hymyssä, törkeää rienausta. Mutta oikeastaan Renan on »skeptikko» vain siksi, että hän niin mielellään tutkistelee asioita, joihin ei ajatuksemme anna mitään lopullista vastausta, joihin nähden vapaasti liikkuva pro et contra on ylin viisaus. Taasen syy siihen, että Renan alituisesti palaa uudelleen tutkistelemaan elämän ja maailman mahdollisuuksia ja tulevaisuuden perspektiivejä, vaikkei hän koskaan pääse pitemmälle kuin noihin »ehkä» ja »kenties», on luullakseni haettava hänen uskonnollisesta »dilettantismistaan». Lapsuutensa ja nuoruutensa hartaasta ja ylevästä katoolisuudesta vieraantui Renan vain järkensä, ei koskaan tunteensa puolesta. Syvä kaipaus, jolla hän jätti Saint Sulpicen seminaarin, ei hänessä koskaan sammunut. Mikään mahdollisuus ei hänelle myöhäiseen vanhuuteensa saakka ollut rakkaampi ajatella kuin se, että uskonto sittenkin olisi tosi. Viimeiseen saakka koettaa hän tieteellisesti ymmärrettyyn maailmankuvaan sovittaa uskonnollisia käsitteitä, Jumala, ylösnousemus, kuolemattomuus. Tämä alituinen ja yhä uudistuva askarteleminen perspektiivien kanssa, joista hän kuitenkin kerran on luopunut, on yhteydessä Renanin luonteen päättämättömyyden kanssa. Tämä päättämättömyys oli hänessä niin silmiinpistävä, että hänen vanha ystävänsä Berthelot saattaa epäillä olisiko Renan koskaan lopullisesti rikkonut väliänsä kirkon kanssa, ellei hänellä olisi ollut tukenaan sisarensa Henriette, voimakas, päättäväinen, syvä luonne, joka kaukaa lähettämillään kirjeillä auttoi Renanin seuraamaan vakaumustaan. Palatakseni takaisin käsitteisiin »nisus» ja »élan vital», on sanottava että ne eivät toisistaan eroa vain siinä, että edellinen on latinaa, jälkimäinen ranskaa! Renanin »nisus» laahaa alituisesti liepeissään tuote »ehkä» ja »kenties ei kuitenkaan». Renan on alituisesti tietoinen siitä, että metafyysillinen filosofia on pelkkää runoilua, mielikuvituksen leikkiä, jolla on tosin lakastumaton viehätyksensä, mutta joka on otettava cum grano salis. »Renanismin» rinnalla on »bergsonismi» karkeasti dogmaatinen. Empimättä uskoo Bergson metafyysillisiin kangastuksiinsa, jotka runollisen mielikuvituksen näkyinä kieltämättä ovat mukaansatempaavan kauniit.-- Kolmas yhtymäkohta Renanin ja Bergsonin välillä on kenties kaikista mieltäkiinnittävin. Se koskee spekulatiivisen järjen kantavuutta tiedonlähteenä ja spekulatiivisen tiedon arvoa. Renanin käsitys filosofian olennosta ja tehtävästä on kenties hieman huojuva. Mutta siinä suhteessa on se selvä, että hänen mielestään spekulatiivinen filosofia, jolla muka on oma tiedelähteensä ja omat metodinsa, on vähänarvoinen. Kaikki suuret filosofit ovat olleet suuria tiedemiehiä; Aristoteles, Descartes, Leibniz, Kant tiesivät kaiken, mitä heidän vuosisatansakin. Ne ajat taas, jolloin filosofia on muuttunut »spesialiteetiksi», ovat olleet sen alennuksen kausia. Sellainen oli myöhempi kartesiolaisuus (Malebranche), sellainen Renanin nuoruudessa Saksan spekulatiivinen idealismi. Meidän aikanamme näyttävät pitkin koko rintamaa tieteet, joko historialliset tai luonnontieteet, olevan määrätyt ottamaan vastaan filosofian perinnön. Filosofian täytyy tulla tieteelliseksi, ellei se tahdo tulla Penelopen kankaaksi, jota lakkaamatta ja aina turhaan aletaan uudelleen. Ja Renan uskoo, että sensijaan kuin edellisinä vuosisatoina luonnontieteet tuottivat parhaan aineiston filosofisille aateskeluille, »historia on meidän aikamme todellinen filosofia» (Essais de morale et de critique, s. 83).

Misstankar verkar dock ha funnits: Eftersom han levde ensam började rykten spridas om att han skulle vara homosexuell och hans motståndare använde detta för att smutskasta honom), he would invite intellectuals and artists, the best of New York’s bohemia, to his Upper East Side apartment where he kept a pet, an African monkey called Greenback. People he invited to his generous dinners included the poet Carl Sandburg, the novelist John Steinbeck, the poet WH Auden, the diplomat George Kennan. Auden was the translator of Hammarskjöld’s posthumously published book of observations, ideas and poems called Waymarks. Hammarskjöld used his influence to get the poet Ezra Pound out of mental hospital. Back in Sweden, he inherited his father’s chair at the Swedish academy when the man died in 1953. The Swedish academy is the body that awards the Nobel Prize in literature. Hammarskjöld was instrumental in getting the rather obscure but doubtless brilliant French poet Saint John Perse his Nobel prize in 1960. He would sketch out the arguments for Perse’s candidacy during translation breaks at UN Security Council meetings.

ellauri151.html on line 287: Im Skeptizismus erfährt das Bewußtsein in Wahrheit sich als ein in sich selbst widersprechendes Bewußtsein; es geht aus dieser Erfahrung eine neue Gestalt hervor, welche die zwei Gedanken zusammenbringt, die der Skeptizismus auseinander hält. Die Gedankenlosigkeit des Skeptizismus über sich selbst muß verschwinden, weil es in der Tat ein Bewußtsein ist, welches diese beiden Weisen an ihm hat. Diese neue Gestalt ist hiedurch ein solches, welches für sich das gedoppelte Bewußtsein seiner als des sich befreienden, unwandelbaren und sichselbstgleichen, und seiner als des absolut sich verwirrenden und verkehrenden – und das Bewußtsein dieses seines Widerspruchs ist. – Im Stoizismus ist das Selbstbewußtsein die einfache Freiheit seiner selbst; im Skeptizismus realisiert sie sich, vernichtet die andere Seite des bestimmten Daseins, aber verdoppelt sich vielmehr, und ist sich nun ein Zweifaches. Hiedurch ist die Verdopplung, welche früher an zwei einzelne, an den Herrn und den Knecht, sich verteilte, in eines eingekehrt; die Verdopplung des Selbstbewußtseins in sich selbst, welche im Begriffe des Geistes wesentlich ist, ist hiemit vorhanden, aber noch nicht ihre Einheit, und das unglückliche Bewußtsein ist das Bewußtsein seiner als des gedoppelten nur widersprechenden Wesens.
ellauri151.html on line 298: Obgleich aber das unglückliche Bewußtsein also diese Gegenwart nicht besitzt, so ist es zugleich über das reine Denken, insofern dieses das abstrakte von der Einzelnheit überhaupt wegsehende Denken des Stoizismus, und das nur unruhige Denken des Skeptizismus – in der Tat nur die Einzelnheit als der bewußtlose Widerspruch und dessen rastlose Bewegung – ist; es ist über diese beide hinaus, es bringt und hält das reine Denken und die Einzelnheit zusammen, ist aber noch nicht zu demjenigen Denken erhoben, für welches die Einzelnheit des Bewußtseins mit dem reinen Denken selbst ausgesöhnt ist. Es steht vielmehr in dieser Mitte, worin das abstrakte Denken die Einzelnheit des Bewußtseins als Einzelnheit berührt. Es selbst ist diese Berührung; es ist die Einheit des reinen Denkens und der Einzelnheit; es ist auch für es diese denkende Einzelnheit, oder das reine Denken, und das Unwandelbare wesentlich selbst als Einzelnheit. Aber es ist nicht für es, daß dieser sein Gegenstand, das Unwandelbare, welches ihm wesentlich die Gestalt der Einzelnheit hat, es selbst ist, es selbst, das Einzelnheit des Bewußtseins ist.

When the second Ark of the Covenant is brought to Jerusalem, a soldier reaches out to steady it and is struck dead. While the prophet Nathan declares this the will of God, a skeptical David pronounces it the result of a combination of an electrical shock and too much wine. This blasphemy starts David on the path of sin.
ellauri156.html on line 491: 1 Then David came to Nob to Ahimelech the priest; and Ahimelech came trembling to meet David and said to him, “Why are you alone and no one with you?” 2 David said to Ahimelech the priest, “The king has commissioned me with a matter and has said to me, 'Let no one know anything about the matter on which I am sending you and with which I have commissioned you; and I have directed the young men to a certain place.' 3 “Now therefore, what do you have on hand? Give me five loaves of bread, or whatever can be found.” 4 The priest answered David and said, “There is no ordinary bread on hand, but there is consecrated bread; if only the young men have kept themselves from women.” 5 David answered the priest and said to him, “Surely women have been kept from us as previously when I set out and the vessels of the young men were holy, though it was an ordinary journey; how much more then today will their vessels be holy?” (1 Samuel 21:1-5). Pyhiä vesseleitä. Tarkoittaako se siemenjohtimia? Ilmeisesti, suomexi se on: palvelijoiden reput ovat olleet pyhät. Reppureissulaisia pyhäkouluretkellä pussit tyhjinä. Kassit jätetään ulkopuolelle.
ellauri156.html on line 493: You may remember that when David first fled from Saul he went to Ahimelech the priest and asked for some provisions and a sword. The priest had nothing but the sacred bread, which he would allow David and his men to eat, if they had only “kept themselves from women” (verse 4). The priest assumes they may have conducted themselves otherwise. David's answer, and especially the tone of it, is very pertinent to our text. He confidently assured the priest that he and his men had kept themselves from women, almost incensed that the priest would think otherwise. And the reason David gives is that he and his men are on a mission for the king. The inference is that this is a military (or at least official) mission.
ellauri156.html on line 627: In addition to the hundreds of sheep in a nearby pasture, there was a small lamb in a pen, very close to the house. It was a frisky, friendly little fellow, and we loved to "play" with it. We were somewhat perplexed as to why this fellow was kept by himself, away from the rest of the flock. The farmer's nephew came by, and I asked him. It took a while to understand his strong accent, but finally I realized he was telling me this was his “pet lamb.” The problem was that he said it as though it were one word, “bedlam.” This was obviously a separate category, distinct from the category of mere “sheep” or a “lamb.” This “pet lamb” was given a special pen, right by the house, and a lot more attention and care than the rest. I did not dare to ask the man where his "penis".

In 1885, Tissot had a revival of his Catholic faith, which led him to spend the rest of his life making paintings about Biblical events. Many of his artist friends were skeptical about his conversion, as it conveniently coincided with the French Catholic revival, a reaction against the secular attitude of the French Third Republic. They brought Tissot vast wealth and fame. Tissot spent the last years of his life in his chateau working on paintings of subjects from the Old Testament. Although he never completed the series, he exhibited 80 of these paintings in Paris in 1901 and engravings after them were published in 1904. In the first half of the 20th century, there was a re-kindling of interest in his portraits of fashionable ladies and some fifty years later, these were achieving record prices.

After prayer, the mohel circumcised the infant and then blessed the child, a practice little changed today (Fig. 4a-d). In ancient Egyptian society, the procedure was performed by a priest with his thumb-nail (often gold-impregnated) and throughout mediaeval times it appears to have been largely kept in the domain of religious men.

They are Bene Israel because non-Israelis who married them, accepted the religion too, and Moses taught Bene Israel that if someone accepts that religion and goes through a certain process (called Giyur in Hebrew), he becomes an Israeli himself (Moses’ own wife, Sipora, was actually a convert).

This is still true for today’s religious Jews, and until not long ago, all Jews were religious). On the other hand, those other people who both mixed and did not keep Judaism, although they are descendants of Bene Israel to some extent, they are not Bene Israel themselves, as they do not fall into either category.
ellauri190.html on line 275: In 1648, a Kozak leader called Zinoviy Bohdan Khmelnytsky (Polish transliteration, Chmielnicki) started a war on the Polish crown. Initially, it was his own personal vendetta on a Polish landlord who stole his land, but very soon it grew into a colossal uprising of the Kozaks and Ukrainian peasants against their Polish landlords. The people fought (the way they knew how) against the feudal oppression, as well as against forced Catholicization and Polonization of Ukraine. Unfortunately, it turned into a fratricide. (Sorry Poles, of course we are on the same side now.) The main adversary of Khmelnytsky was Prince Yarema (Jeremiah) Korybut-Vyshnevetsky, a Rusyn-Ukrainian, a noble valiant knight and a great statesman who, nonetheless, kept his allegiance to the Polish king (whom he personally hated, but could not break his knight’s oath of loyalty). Both sides resorted to unspeakable cruelties. Most tragically, Khmelnysky, a brave warrior as he was, turned out to be a horribly short-sighted politician. In January 1654, he essentially surrendered Ukraine to Muscovy, approving what he thought was a temporary military union against the Republic but turned out to be the beginning of the “Russian” (actually Muscovite) occupation of Ukraine. It just goes to show: give a pinky finger to the Russkies and they take the whole hand.

ellauri196.html on line 841: The academicians of Stockholm have often (though not always) said no to intolerance, cruel fanaticism and that persecuting spirit which turns the strong against the weak, oppressors against the oppressed, rather than the other way round. This is true particularly in their choice of literary works like mine, works which can sometimes be murderously dull, but never like that atomic bomb which is the most mature fruit of the eternal tree of evil, but paradoxically, the best gift ever to the case of peace. It kept Europeans from murdering each other for almost 100 years.

This loved one can be somebody who is dead, far away for an extended period of time or the carrier may just be a Stalker with a Crush. If the person is dead, then this symbolizes the attachment that the carrier still has. If they're far away, then this shows that the carrier is anticipating their return. If the carrier is a stalker then there are thousands more where that one came from. It may also be an Orphan's Plot Trinket, usually when kept in a locket. Even still, if the photo is ruined, there are two possible outcomes:

The strike, which began on May 26th, was almost completely effective in the first days, as 67,000 workers walked the picket lines, kept replacement workers (scabs) out, and brought steel production in their mills to a standstill. One striker later said that in the first days of the strike “the mills were as empty as Monday morning church” and that “the steel towns breathed clean air for the first time in years.”
ellauri198.html on line 821: William Butler Yeats is widely considered to be one of the greatest poets of the 20th century. He belonged to the Protestant, Anglo-Irish minority that had controlled the economic, political, social, and cultural life of Ireland since at least the end of the 17th century. Most members of this minority considered themselves English people who happened to have been born in Ireland, but Yeats staunchly flagged his fake Irish nationality. Although he lived in London for 14 years of his childhood (and kept a permanent home there for 30 years), Yeats magnified his cultural roots, featuring Irish legends and heroes in many of his poems and plays.
ellauri198.html on line 828: Yeats kept his sixth-grader occultist badge away from his poems, which are simple enough to be understood by sixth-graders, unlike Blake and Shelley, but like his rhyming predecessor Keats. Even so, Yeats’s visionary and idealist interests were more closely aligned with those of Blake and Shelley than with those of Keats, and in the 1899 collection The Wind among the Reeds the occult symbolism rears its ugly head in several poems.

ellauri222.html on line 785: An intensely intellectual writer who peppers his novels with allusions, Bellow draws on many cultural traditions in his analysis of both the sources of American experience and its present manifestations. His fiction fully documents the decline of Western civilization without conceding its obvious demise, and the ambiguity and tenuousness of even his most positive endings balance sadness and comic skepticism with the steadfast faith that he the artist can effect coherence and order, or failing that a lot of cash, out of the chaos of modern experience. His tip for success: kusettakaa minkä jaxatte! For his achievement in confronting the modern existential dilemma with compassion and humor, Bellow's place in twentieth-century American literary history seems assured by drooling groupies like myself.
ellauri223.html on line 66: Capt. Moreover, the race is managed for the good of the commonwealth, and not of private individuals, and the magistrates must be obeyed. They deny what we hold—viz., that it is natural to man to recognize his offspring and to educate them, and to use his wife and house and children as his own. For they say that children are bred for the preservation of the species and not for individual pleasure, as St. Thomas also asserts. Therefore the breeding of children has reference to the commonwealth, and not to individuals, except in so far as they are constituents of the commonwealth. And since individuals for the most part bring forth children wrongly and educate them wrongly, they consider that they remove destruction from the State, and therefore for this reason, with most sacred fear, they commit the education of the children, who, as it were, are the element of the republic, to the care of magistrates; for the safety of the community is not that of a few. And thus they distribute male and female breeders of the best natures according to philosophical rules. Plato thinks that this distribution ought to be made by lot, lest some incel men seeing that they are kept away from the beautiful women, should rise up with anger and hatred against the magistrates; and he thinks further that those who do not deserve cohabitation with the more beautiful women, should be deceived while the lots are drawn by the magistrates, so that at all times the women who are suitably second rate should fall to their lot, not those whom they desire. Stop the steal!

Tämä on hengellinen selviytymisohjelma niille, jotka eivät ole vaurioituneet mielessä ja säilyttävät yhteisen mielen ja ihmisarvon tunteen. Brodsky käyttää Marzilan muinaisen roomalaisen runoilun kirjallisuuden naamiota, joka on kirkastettu satigisen saamisuudesta ja honed laconicism hänen epigraminsa. Martzialilla oli ristiriita vallan kanssa, ja vanhuxena hän palasi ulkopuolelle, valitsi henkilöxi yksityisen henkilön, joka uppoaa mieluummin nöyryytykseen. Vanhusten miehen maski, tunnetusti, valitti 32-vuotias Brodsky, on yksi itsetuhojen keinoista. Itse asiassa Brodskin eettiset filosofiset havainnot kertyvät elämään, jotka heitetään täällä maksimaalisten kommenttien muodossa. Kirjoittaja käyttää epistolar-muotoa, jonka avulla voit ylittää monipuolisen materiaalin yhdeksi kokonaisuudeksi. Selkä-skeptinen ilme asioita duunatessa ei peruuta kiitollista asennetta siihen, mikä tekee eläimistä kauniita. Rakkausnäkymä sankarista on merelle, vuorille, puille, varrelle vanhemman baarin. Elämän korkeimman arvon ymmärtäminen läpäisee koko työn.

He caught it, stuck a white feather between its hind legs, let it go and followed it. He knew he could see the white feather, and so follow the bee to its nest. He ordered his two wives, of the Bilber tribe, to follow him with wirrees to carry home the honey in. Night came on and Wurranunnah the bee had not reached home. Narahdarn caught him, imprisoned him under bark, and kept him safely there until next morning. When it was light enough to see, Narahdarn let the bee go again, and followed him to his nest, in a gunnyanny tree.

So did Janet Hadda, who wrote the biography “Isaac Bashevis Singer: A Life” (1997). Hadda even provided me with an address, but my letters went unanswered. Lester Goran, who co-taught with Singer at the University of Miami and wrote a memoir about their friendship, “The Bright Streets of Surfside” (1994), couldn’t help me, either.

Maureen Moore, Paddy's sister, said that the two made a mutual pact that if either died during the war, the survivor would take care of both of their families. Paddy was killed in action in 1918 and Lewis kept his promise. Paddy had earlier introduced Lewis to his mother, Janie King Moore, and a friendship quickly sprang up between Lewis, who was 18 when they met, and Janie, who was 45. The friendship with Moore was particularly important to Lewis while he was recovering from his wounds in hospital, as his father did not visit him.

Gionet also posted many humorous videos on Vine where he became known as a prankster, achieving some online popularity.

Brown contacted and ultimately collaborated with physics and maths professor Alan Sokal and psychology professor Harris Friedman on a re-analysis of the paper´s data (hereafter the Brown-Sokal-Friedman rebuttal). They argued that Losada´s earlier work on positive psychology and Fredrickson and Losada´s 2005 critical positivity ratio paper contained "numerous fundamental conceptual and mathematical errors", errors of a magnitude that completely invalidated their claims.
ellauri299.html on line 198: Mediaraporteissa korostettiin yleisesti, että kohdunsisäiselle halkeamalle altistuneet vauvat eivät koskaan kehittyisi normaalisti. Lasten kerrottiin olevan väistämättä fyysisesti ja henkisesti vammaisia koko elämänsä ajan. Vauvat, jotka olivat alttiina kohdunsisäiselle halkeamalle, kirjattiin tuomituiksi vakavasti vammautumaan, ja monet hylättiin sairaaloihin. Heidän odotettiin olevan kykenemättömiä muodostamaan normaaleja sosiaalisia siteitä. Asiantuntijat ennakoivat syntyneiden rikollisten "biologisen alaluokan" kehittymistä, joka saalistaisi muun väestön. Rikollisuuden ennustettiin nousevan, kun halkeille altistuneiden vauvojen sukupolvi kasvoi (sen sijaan ne laskivat). Lasten ennustettiin olevan vaikeasti lohduttavia, ärtyneitä ja yliaktiivisia, mikä rasittaa koulujärjestelmää. Charles Krauthammer, The Washington Postin kolumnisti kirjoitti vuonna 1989, "perilliset elävät tietyn kärsimyksen, todennäköisen poikkeaman, pysyvän alemmuuden elämää." Bostonin yliopiston tuolloinen presidentti John Silber sanoi: "Crack-vauvat... eivät koskaan saavuta sellaista älyllistä kehitystä, jolla heillä olisi tietoisuus Jumalasta." Nämä väitteet biologisesta alemmuudesta soittivat helposti olemassa oleviin luokka- ja rodullisiin ennakkoluuloihin. Raportointi oli usein sensaatiomaista, suosi hirveimpiä ennusteita ja sulki pois skeptikot.

Kun Dido huutaa Aeneasta hänen lähestyvän lähtönsä vuoksi, kaukana hänen tunteettomasta, joskin kohtelias ja syvästi retorinen vastaus riveillä 4.333–61, Kotliarevskin Aeneas vapauttaa Didon loukkausten tulvan ja käskee häntä kirjaimellisesti menemään helvettiin. Myöhemmin, kun troijalaiset naiset yrittivät polttaa Troijan laivaston Sisiliassa, kuuluisa "hurskas" Aeneas lähtee pitkälle tiradille, jossa hän loukkaa rajusti kaikkia Rooman panteonin suuria jumalia peräkkäin, mukaan lukien omaa äitiään Venusta. Lopuksi, siltä varalta, että lukijalla olisi vielä epäilyksiä tämän Aeneaksen moraalista säikeestä, alamaailmassa hänet kuvataan nimenomaan pelkuriksi (3.63), jota Sibyllan täytyy vetää kädestä näkemään isänsä. Tämä selvästi epäsankarillinen ja inspiroimaton Aeneas on kuitenkin enemmän kuin parodia, ja itse asiassa viittaa runon juoksevaan lankaan – hahmojen ja auktoriteettien ennakkotapausten lähes subversiiviseen skeptisyyteen.

Kieli on silta: välttämätön havaitsemamme ja tuntemamme artikulaatiossa, mutta myös pohjimmiltaan haavoittuvainen romahdukselle. Handke kohdistaa käyttämänsä sanat mikroskooppiseen tarkasteluun: Usein on hämmästyttävä kyky siirtyä abstraktien (esimerkiksi miltä tuntuu olla "onnistunut päivä") ja täsmälleen aistinvaraisten (esimerkiksi askeleiden äänen meditaatio) välillä kaivon kannessa).

Sen ovat hyväksyneet jotkut mielenfilosofit, kuten Joseph Levine, Colin McGinn ja Ned Block sekä kognitiiviset neurotieteilijät Francisco Varela, Giulio Tononi ja Christof Koch. Toisaalta muut mielenfilosofit, kuten Daniel Dennett, Massimo Pigliucci, Thomas Metzinger, Patricia Churchland ja Keith Frankish, kiistävät sen olemassaolon, kuin myös kognitiiviset neurotieteilijät Stanislas Dehaene, Bernard Baars, Anil Seth ja Antonio Damasio. Kliininen neurologi ja skeptikko Steven Novella on hylännyt sen "kovana ei-ongelmana". Vuoden 2020 PhilPapers -tutkimuksen mukaan suuri enemmistö (62,42 %) tutkituista filosofeista sanoi uskovansa vaikean ongelman olevan todellinen ongelma, kun taas 29,72 % sanoi, että sitä ei ole olemassa.
ellauri351.html on line 225: Terrorin vastainen sota sai käänteen rahoitetun traumatutkimuksen tyypissä kohti PTSD:n neurobiologiaa. Tämä tuli van der Kolkille todisteena ja antoi hänelle mahdollisuuden päästä eroon palautuneiden muistisotien kuolleesta painosta. Liittovaltion rahoitus oli myös omaksumassa yhä avoimemmin ei-lääketieteellisiä hoitoja. Välittömästi 11. syyskuun iskujen jälkeen van der Kolk ja traumakeskus hoitivat ensiapuhenkilöitä ja siviilejä silmän liikkeen herkistymisen ja uudelleenkäsittelyn avulla, jossa potilas ajattelee traumaattista kokemusta, kun taas kliinikko ohjaa potilaan silmiä edestakaisin. Vaikka van der Kolk oli alun perin skeptinen, hänestä tuli EMDR-evankelista, joka johti National Institutes of Healthin rahoittamaa tutkimusta, jossa verrattiin EMDR:ää Prozaciin PTSD:n hoidossa. Vuonna 2008 hän aloitti ensimmäisen NIH:n rahoittaman tutkimuksen joogan tehokkuudesta PTSD:n hoidossa. EMDR on lyhennys englanninkielisistä sanoista Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. Hän suoritti myös tutkimusta neurofeedbackista, terapiasta, joka näyttää potilaille reaaliaikaisia lukemia pulssistaan ja aivoaalloistaan ja opettaa heitä säätelemään itseään. Tätä "somaattisten terapioiden" arsenaalia yhdisti se, että ne kohdistuivat kehoon kognition (kuten kognitiivinen käyttäytymisterapia) tai kieleen (kuten puheterapia) sijaan.

ellauri365.html on line 584: Back North, the self-centered man forgot his despondency by merging himself into the larger soul of his estate. To those familiar with his membership of the committee, it came as no surprise that in 1916 Heidenstam was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature. He is perhaps most like Browning. Above all things he abhors uninspired naturalism; "gray-weather moods," he calls it. Strindberg merely "let the cellar air escape through the house.", he said. He repudiates pessimism no less than sentimentalism. He wrestled with August for the deeper meaning of life. The imagery is often daring, as when a negro's lips are compared to the crimson gash on a foreskin. Heidenstam, though one of the most daringly earnest of poets, is sufficiently an artist to relieve his style by such touches of humor and of the deeper sort of romance. But atonement was repugnant to his manhood. He longs to be worthy of his heritage, to give his life for some damn cause. He believes it is only in moments of great exaltation that we really live. The best bit is where Verner dissuades his poor countrymen from whacking the filthy rich.

After Muriel's death in 1990, Roth moved into a ramshackle former funeral parlor and occupied himself with revising the final volumes of his monumental work, Mercy of a Rude Stream. It has been alleged that the incestuous relationships between the protagonist, a sister, and a cousin in Mercy of a Rude Stream are based on Roth's life. Roth's own sister denied that such events occurred. Roth attributed his massive writer's block to personal problems such as depression, and to political conflicts, including his disillusion with Communism. At other times he cited his early break with Judaism and his obsessive sexual preoccupations as probable causes. Roth died in Albuquerque, New Mexico, United States in 1995. The character E. I. Lonoff in Philip Roth's Zuckerman novels (The Ghost Writer and Exit Ghost in this case), is a composite of Roth, Bernard Malamud and fictional elements.

Maurois did so, but in his Elbeuf office he kept a secret cupboard filled with Balzac novels and notebooks, and copied out pages of Stendhal to improve his writing style.

On 1 January, Nelson's promotion to vice admiral was confirmed and he prepared to go to sea on the same night. Infuriated by Fanny's handing him an ultimatum to choose between her and his mistress, Nelson chose Emma and decided to take steps to formalise separation from his wife. He never saw her again, after being hustled out of town by an agent. While he was at sea, Nelson and Emma exchanged many letters, using a secret code to discuss Emma's condition. Emma kept her first daughter Emma Carew's existence a secret from Nelson, while Sir William continued to provide for her.

The child, a girl (reportedly named Emma), died about 6 weeks after her birth in early 1804, and Horatia also fell ill at her home with Mrs Gibson on Titchfield Street. Emma kept the infant's death a secret from the press (her burial is unrecorded), kept her deep grief from Nelson's family and found it increasingly difficult to cope alone. She reportedly distracted herself by gambling, and succumbed to binges of heavy drinking and eating and spending lavishly.

She was not completely without friends; her neighbours had rallied, and Sir John Perring hosted a group of influential financiers to help organise her finances and sell Merton. It was eventually sold in April 1809. However, her lavish spending continued, and a combination of this and the steady depletion of funds due to people fleecing her meant that she remained in debt, although unbeknownst to most people. Her mother, Mrs Cadogan, died in January 1810. For most of 1811 and 1812 she was in a virtual debtors' prison, and in December 1812 either chose to commit herself (her name does not appear in the record books) or was sentenced to a prison sentence at the King's Bench Prison in Southwark, although she was not kept in a cell but allowed to live in rooms nearby with Horatia, as per the system whereby genteel prisoners could buy the rights to live "within the Rules", a three-square-mile area around the prison.

He explained that after the bombing at Pearl Harbor, he was prepared to fight in the war until he read about the American terms of unconditional surrender that he feared would lead to the "permanent destruction of Germany and Japan."

In his commentary on the Quranic verses 19:56-57, the commentator Ibn Kathir narrated "During the Night Journey, the Prophet passed by him in fourth heaven. In a hadith, Ibn Abbas asked Ka’b what was meant by the part of the verse which says, ”And We raised him to a high station.” Ka’b explained: Allah revealed to Idris: ‘I would raise for you every day the same amount of the deeds of all Adam’s children’ – perhaps meaning of his time only. So Idris wanted to increase his deeds and devotion. A friend of his from the angels visited and Idris said to him: ‘Allah has revealed to me such and such, so could you please speak to the angel of death, so I could increase my deeds.’ The angel carried him on his wings and went up into the heavens. When they reached the fourth heaven, they met the angel of death who was descending down towards earth. The angel spoke to him about what Idris had spoken to him before. The angel of death said: ‘But where is Idris?’ He replied, ‘He is upon my back.’ The angel of death said: ‘How astonishing! I was sent and told to seize his soul in the fourth heaven. I kept thinking how I could seize it in the fourth heaven when he was on the earth?’ Then he took his soul out of his body, and that is what is meant by the verse: ‘And We raised him to a high station.’"

In contrast to the wave of looting and other incidents that took place during the 1977 New York City blackout, only five reports of looting were made in New York City after the 1965 blackout. It was said to be the lowest amount of crime on any night in the city's history since records were first kept. Perhaps thanks to that more than 800,000 looters got trapped in the subway. The blackout that hit New York on July 13, 1977 was to many a metaphor for the gloom that had already settled on the city. An economic decline, coupled with rising crime rates and the panic-provoking (and paranoia-inducing) Son of Sam murders, had combined to make the late 1970s New York’s Dark Ages.

As a teenager, Trellman had been in love with Amy Wurstin, who had eventually chosen as her second husband Trellman’s best friend in high school, Jay Wurstin. Huom toisexi aviomiehexi, ei tää ole ihan se tavallinen tarina.

xxx/ellauri224.html on line 341: What was this book even about??? The "narrator" kept jumping around with what he was talking about, quite a few times I had no idea who was speaking, and what was the point of all the billionaires? They had absolutely nothing to do with the story! It took 104 pages of confusing and pointless narrative for the guy to tell the girl (after 40 years of knowing her, no less) that he wanted to be with her. This might have been one of the most anti-climactic love stories I have ever read. The secondary characters seemed completely irrelevant to the plotline and it appeared that their only function was to take up printable space. The story was unimaginative, lacking in depth, and devoid of anything memorable. The only reason I bothered to finish it was to get one step closer to finishing my goodreads reading challenge, else I would have ditched it at page 20.

But the tree design kept making electricity under the same conditions. The Fibonacci pattern allowed some solar panels to collect sunlight even if others were in shade. Plus I observed that the Fibonacci pattern helped the branches and leaves on a tree to avoid shading each other.
xxx/ellauri225.html on line 277: Several of Le Guin´s works have featured stylistic or structural features that were unusual or even subversive. The heterogeneous structure of The Left Hand of Darkness, described as "distinctly post-modern" (eek!), was unusual for the time of its publication. This was in marked contrast to the structure of (primarily male-authored) traditional science fiction, which was straightforward and linear. The novel was framed as part of a report sent to the Ekumen by the protagonist Genly Ai after his time on the planet Gethen, thus suggesting that Ai was selecting and ordering the material, consisting of personal narration, diary extracts, Gethenian myths, and ethnological reports. Earthsea also employed an outlandishly unconventional narrative form described by scholar Mike Cadden
(Princeton U Senior Lecturer in Theater) as "free indirect discourse", in which the feelings of the protagonist are not directly separated from the narration, making the narrator seem sympathetic to the characters, and removing the skepticism towards a character´s thoughts and emotions that are a feature of more direct narration. Cadden suggests that this method leads to younger readers sympathizing directly with the characters, making it an effective technique for young-adult literature like Flaubert or Zola.

They believed that garlic chased away all pagan and evil spirits and kept them healthy. While giving the garlic to taste, the mother said: “May God grant that you be as smelly as this garlic!”
xxx/ellauri229.html on line 546: At the height of the baroque, sex went out of style; only two small parties kept it going-the integrationalists and the separatists. The separatists, averse to all debauchery, felt that it was improper to eat sauerkraut with the same mouth one used to kiss one´s sweetheart. For this a separate, "platonic" mouth was needed, and better yet, a complete set of them, variously designated (for relatives, for friends, and for that special person). The valuing utility above all else, worked in reverse, combining whatever was combinable to simplify the organism and life. The decline of the baroque, typically tending to the extravagant and the grotesque, produced such curious forms as the stoolmaid and the hexus, which resembled a centaur, except that instead of hoofs it had four bare feet with the toes all facing one another: they also called it a syncopant, after a dance in which energetic stamping was the basic step. But the market now was glutted, exhausted. It was hard to come up with a startling new body; people used their natural horns for ear flaps; flap ears-diaphanous and with stigmatic scenes-fanned with their pale pinkness the cheeks of ladies of distinction; there were attempts to walk on supple pseudopodia; meanwhile SOPSYPLABD out of sheer inertia made more and more designs available, though everyone felt that all of this was drawing to a close.

Omkring 3000 hamnade i Sverige, däribland min mor och jag.

Ukraine using FTX sent it back (they didn’t need it but probably kept a part) as a way of laundering it to the Democratic National Committee for their election campaigns (and commit election fraud, as has been proven). Taxpayer money was used to finance the midterm elections, which is no less than money laundering.
xxx/ellauri250.html on line 851: ‘Emeq HaEla (hebreiska: עמק האלה) är en dal i Israel. Den ligger i distriktet Jerusalem, i den centrala delen av landet. Called in Arabic: وادي السنط, Wadi es-Sunt, it is a long, shallow valley now in Israel and the West Bank best known as the place described in the Hebrew Bible (the Old Testament of Christianity) where the Israelites were encamped when David fought Goliath (1 Samuel 17:2; 1 Samuel 17:19). The valley is named after the large and shady terebinth trees (Pistacia atlantica) which are indigenous to it. David ja Goljat mutustelivat siellä pistaasipähkinöitä ennen matsia. The Valley of Elah has gained new importance as a possible point of support for the argument that Israel was more than merely a tribal chiefdom in the time of King David. Others are skeptical and suggest it might be just another piece of Jewish propaganda.

Järvinen on työskennellyt lavakoomikkona vuodesta 2002. Hän on kirjoittanut niin paskoja runoja kuin proosaakin. Hän perusti Huonon Kirjallisuuden Seuran, joka julkaisi kokoelman Mallusjokelaisen sielunmaisema ja muuta paskaa, joka oli helmikuussa 2000 Suomen kymmenenneksi myydyin kirja. Seuran toiminta loppui Järvisen mukaan siihen, että hän luki Tony Halmeen aforismikirjaa ja totesi seuran tarpeettomaksi. Järvinen on Skeptikko-lehden päätoimittaja. Ennen skeptikonuraansa hän oli kokeillut erilaisia uskonnollisia suuntauksia. Niistä ei ollut apua.

xxx/ellauri298.html on line 509: Stanislav "Stan" Grof (* 1. heinäkuuta 1931 Prahassa) on tšekkiläissyntyinen psykiatri, joka on asunut Yhdysvalloissakin 1960-luvulta lähtien. Grof on yksi tärkeimmistä transpersonaalisen psykologian kehittäjistä ja tutkija, joka tutkii epätavallisten tietoisuuden tilojen käyttöä psykologiseen parantamiseen, syvään itsetutkimiseen sekä kasvun ja näkemysten saamiseen ihmisen psyykestä . Vuonna 1993 Grof sai kunniapalkinnon Association for Transpersonal Psychologylta (ATP) merkittävästä panoksesta ja kehittämisestä transpersonaalisen psykologian alalla, joka annettiin Kalifornian Asilomarissa pidetyn 25-vuotisjuhlakokouksen yhteydessä. Hän sai myös Dagmar-säätiön myöntämän VISION 97 -palkinnon Václav Havelilta Prahassa 5. lokakuuta 2007. Vuonna 2010 hän sai Jules Verne -palkinnon Association for Pre- and Perinatal Psychology and Health -järjestöltä (APPPAH) . Toisaalta tšekkiläinen skeptikkoryhmä Český klub skeptiků Sisyfos on arvostellut Grofia siitä, että se on edistänyt heidän mielestään ei -tieteellisenä psykologiaa, joka on liian kaukana modernin tieteen materialistisen filosofisen perustan rajoista. Hän on ainoa henkilö, jolle on myönnetty Anti-Prize Erotic Boulder -palkinto kahdesti kyseisessä maassa. Eli toisaalta hänen kriitikot syyttävät häntä epätieteellisen psykologian edistämisestä ja hän on kahden harhaluuloisen lohkareen kantaja. Nimittäin Grof oli ensin naimisissa psykologi Christine Grofin kanssa 70-l. ja sitten psykologi Brigitte Grofin kanssa vuonna Christinen kuukahdettua 2014 tai size oli 2016. Stanin pitää olla vitun vanha jos se on edes syntynyt.

xxx/ellauri357.html on line 439: Percy Bysshe Shelley ( / b ɪ ʃ / ⓘ BISH ;4. elokuuta 1792 – 8. heinäkuuta 1822) oli brittiläinen kirjailija, jota pidetään yhtenä suurimmistaenglantilaisista romanttisista runoilijoista. Runoudessaan sekä poliittisissa ja sosiaalisissa näkemyksissään radikaali Shelley ei saavuttanut mainetta elämänsä aikana, mutta tunnustus hänen saavutuksistaan runoudessa kasvoi tasaisesti hänen kuolemansa jälkeen, ja hänestä tuli tärkeä vaikuttaja seuraavien sukupolvien runoilijoille, mukaan lukien Robert Browning, Algernon Charles Swinburne, Thomas Hardy ja WB Yeats. Amerikkalainen kirjallisuuskriitikko, rasvainen Harold Bloom kuvailee häntä "erinomaiseksi käsityöihmiseksi, lyyriseksi runoilijaksi ilman kilpailijaa ja varmasti yhdeksi kehittyneimmistä skeptisistä älyistä, joka on koskaan kirjoittanut runon."

After one appeal Guillou's sentence was reduced from one year to 10 months. Guillou and Bratt served part of their sentence in solitary cells. Guillou was kept first at Långholmen Prison in central Stockholm and later at Österåker Prison north of the capital.
xxx/ellauri388.html on line 88: In 1913, Maria Lindell moved to Helsinki for the first time. Her first child had died in 1908 within two weeks of its birth. She left her second child in Tampere for care. The third one she kept in a jar. Accused of several thefts, Maria Lindell was imprisoned for the second time on 24 October 1914, and gave birth to a boy while serving her sentence. After being released from prison, Maria Lindell was taken to the women´s shelter, Villa Elseboh, in Huopalahti, maintained by the Finnish Prison Association. According to Kari Selén (remember HIM?) who wrote her biography, Lindell took advantage of the shelter, although at the same time she worked as a babysitter there. Lindell served her third and final prison sentence convicted of thefts from 1920 to 1923. This prison period marked a frontier, after which Maria Lindell became "Madame Minna Craucher" with various phases.
xxx/ellauri388.html on line 219: Lääketieteellisten asiantuntijoiden joukossa, jotka ovat keskustelleet seksuaalisesta pidättymiskysymyksestä pitkään, ei todellakaan yleensä ole mahdollista löytää sellaisia ehdottomia mielipiteitä sen hyväksi, kuin mitä lainaan. Ei voi kuitenkaan olla epäilystäkään siitä, että suuri osa lääkäreistä, lukuun ottamatta merkittäviä ja arvostettuja auktoriteetteja, joutuessaan välinpitämättömästi kohtaamaan kysymyksen, onko seksuaalinen pidättyvyys vaaratonta, valitsee heti ilmeisen vähimmän vastustuksen tien ja vastaa: Kyllä. Vain harvoissa tapauksissa he eivät edes määrittele tätä myöntävää vastausta. Tätä suuntausta havainnollistaa erittäin hyvin tohtori Ludwig Jacobsohnin, Pietarin, tekemä kysely ("Die Sexuelle Enthaltsamkeit im Lichte der Medizin", St. Petersburger Medicinische Wochenschrift , 17. maaliskuuta 1907). Hän kirjoitti yli kahdellesadalle arvostetulle venäläiselle ja saksalaiselle fysiologian, neurologian, psykiatrian jne. professorille ja kysyi heiltä, pitävätkö he seksuaalista pidättymistä vaarattomana. Suurin osa ei vastannut mitään; yksitoista venäläistä ja 28 saksalaista vastasi, mutta neljä heistä vain sanoi, että "heillä ei ollut henkilökohtaista kokemusta" jne.; siellä oli siis jäljellä kolmekymmentäviisi. Näistä Bonnin E. Pflüger suhtautui skeptisesti kaiken pidättymispropagandan etuihin: "Jos kaikki maailman viranomaiset julistaisivat pidättymisen vaarattomuuden, sillä ei olisi mitään vaikutusta nuoriin. Täällä ovat pelissä mukana voimat, jotka murtavat kaiken esteitä."
