In 1902 Browning's son Pen wrote: "Home was detected in a vulgar fraud." Elizabeth, however, was convinced that the phenomena she witnessed were genuine, and her discussions about Home with her husband were a constant source of disagreement.
ellauri096.html on line 100: It is true that some borderline cases of a qualitative term are not borderline cases for the corresponding comparative. But the reverse holds as well. A tall man who stoops may stand less high than another tall man who is not as lengthy but better postured. Both men are clearly tall. It is unclear that ‘The lengthier man is taller’. Qualitative terms can be applied when a vague quota is satisfied without the need to sort out the details. Only comparative terms are bedeviled by tie-breaking issues.
ellauri111.html on line 733: Yoga is inherently spiritual and can raise the Kundalini serpent power which is that old serpent called the devil and Satan. Although many Americans are ignorant of this, yoga is not simply physical exercise; yoga is a spiritual exercise of Hinduism that makes room for the Kundalini serpent power. Through the controlled breathing, the posture, the stillness and/or repetition, etc. the Kundalini serpent power can rise up and possess a person. A person does not have to be looking for Kundalini in order for this to happen--the yoga itself creates the conditions. Mantras, stillness, repetition, etc. (different devil worshippers use different techniques) are summons to the devil. Gurus lead their students through different protocols to help them "prepare" for this entrance of the serpent power--the Authorized Version of 1611 of the Bible reveals who that serpent is, it is Satan--

An average score based on hundreds or even thousands of individual ratings takes only a few days to emerge. To make this hot or not palette of morphed images, photos from the site were sorted by rank and used SquirlzMorph to create multi-morph composites from them. Unlike projects like Face of Tomorrow, where the subjects are posed for the purpose, the portraits are blurry because the source images are of low resolution with differences in variables such as posture, hair styles and glasses, so that in this instance images could use only 36 control points for the morphs. A similar study was done with Miss Universe contestants, as shown in the averageness article, as well as one for age, as shown in the youthfulness article.
ellauri164.html on line 725: Answer: Psalms 106:32-33 states that the people angered Moses at the waters of strife, that it went ill with Moses, and that he sinned with his mouth. The incident in question occurred in Numbers 20:7-13. Miriam had just passed on. The very next verse states that the people were complaining about the lack of water. This had happened many times during their wilderness experience. And like the other times, the people railed against Moses and Aaron, whining that they would have been better off if they had stayed in Egypt. Moses and Aaron responded by falling face down. They had also done this several times. Maybe they were tired of hearing the same old complaints, or maybe this was their posture of prayer. In any event, God responded quickly, telling Moses to speak to the rock in front of all the people. Water would come gushing out -- enough water for everyone.

ellauri206.html on line 454: Selon le témoignage de ses contemporains, Gassendi se levait régulièrement à trois heures du matin, jamais plus tard que quatre heures, et quelquefois à deux. Il étudiait jusqu'à onze heures, à moins de recevoir une visite et se remettait à l'étude vers deux ou trois heures après midi jusqu'à huit. Il soupait légèrement (une tisane tiède, des légumes, rarement de la viande) et se couchait entre neuf et dix. On le disait pieux, et pratiquant avec scrupule ses devoirs de prêtre ; ses paroissiens l'appelaient le saint prêtre. Par sa pauvreté, sa modestie, sa douceur, son humanité, sa bienfaisance, sa charité et sa simplicité, il faisait figure d'un anachorète, vivant dans le monde selon la règle d'un monastère. « Le plus grand philosophe parmi les hommes de lettres, et le plus grand homme de lettres parmi les philosophes », sanoi gibboni. Peu d'auteurs ont imaginé qu'il s'agissait là d'une posture, ou d'un masque.
ellauri219.html on line 744: The yoga scholar David Gordon White writes that yoga teacher training often includes "mandatory instruction" in the Yoga Sutra. White calls this "curious to say the least", since the text is in his view essentially irrelevant to "yoga as it is taught and practiced today", commenting that the Yoga Sutra is "nearly devoid of discussion of indecent postures, dick stretching, and heavy breathing".

ellauri285.html on line 708: Les États-Unis auraient ainsi su échapper à cette crise du sacré, par leur civisme et leur patriotisme, même s´ils se sont mis au service de mauvaises causes. L’effigie du dollar des États-Unis en est un exemple : « In God We Trust, All Others Pay Cash ». C’est cette symbolique patriotique qui ferait la force des États-Unis. Debray prétend appliquer le théorème d´incomplétude de Gödel à l´ordre social pour « démontrer » sa théorie. Régis Debray a été vivement critiqué pour son utilisation du théorème d´incomplétude de Gödel, jugée au mieux infondée sinon fallacieuse par Alan Sokal et Jean Bricmont dans leur livre Impostures intellectuelles, et par Jacques Bouveresse dans Prodiges et vertiges de l´analogie.

Now he is shoulders front, head held low. He looks like me at the principles office waiting for the punishment. Only it is us Yankees and our NATO cowboys dealing out the punishment in his case!
