Today's musing: the meaning of "history." I've been trying to think of a good way to define history beyond the basic "study of the past" concept. I started my thoughts on the old quote from George Santayana, "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." While I appreciate the intellectual and emotional impact of this statement, I am inclined to disagree with it. We cannot repeat...
The history of this Jack is pretty much canon, but he has lost his memories of the tragedy, he's taken from just after killing Glen, but cannot remember it. He's riddled with injuries that are slowly healing and he keeps having nightmares. His memories are slowly returning to him, but his subconscious suppresses them because he's not yet ready to face them. He's in denial of it all and would prefer...
...when she has become obsessed. And, like me, most people have indulged in the long years in the post-shaking and subsequently AFK. Other players may have just added to the game to. Quick look at the history of his account of the recharge, it will tell you how much this player can not do without WOW (or has left for a long time!). For me personally, to review their credit on record brought back memories...
...and Catholics grew in number and political strength in the US, presidents started to save an least one seat on the court for them, the so called "Jewish seat" and "Catholic seat." By a fun quirk of history, assuming Kagan is appointed, there will be 3 Jewish people and 6 Catholics on the Court; no Protestants. Recently, the focus has been on women (3 out of the past 4 nominees) and minorities (appointing...
...the courts himself, and is not above forging evidence to get the guilty proven so. It's not that he's out for power- he just doesn't trust the courts anymore. In fact, he doesn't really trust anyone. History: A few months after State -vs- Iris, Phoenix took up what would be his last case. After winning a poker match, Phoenix was hired by Zak Enigmar to take on his case- Zak was accused of murdering...
First of all, I am neither a skater nor a dancer. I am also not a businessman. I have not idea about whether I can distinguish "good" dancing from "bad" dancing (except I know I am NOT a good dancer...in what Gandhi and King and others have told us: the means we use are more important than the ends we seek. We, and maybe no one else will see our goal, but our means are on display whenever we act
Like nearly everything else in the Sermon on the Mount, the admonition: "Do not judge," is "simple but not easy." If you buy the notion that what we call the "Bible" is a seamless web of instructions...Pehaps Zukav's problem is my own, going on and on and on until one finally gets it wrong. We are in a sorry fix; but we have got there by making judgments and we make it worse by making more judgments.
...are a year premature! Much like we haven't fully grasped the concept of a millennium, the concept of decade continues to elude us, as well. Here's the science: The first year of the AD portion of... What I really can't wait for are the "Best of humanity" lists coming around the end of 2011, as we all gear up for our extinction at the hands of some Mayan death beam, or something like that. -Rog
죽도 아니고 밥도 아니고. It's neither rice nor porridge. A gray area, somewhere in between. A big project that goes no where. Cook rice with lots of water and you end up with porridge. An unskilled cook...아니고. - It won't fill me up with rice! 밥 - rice 죽 - porridge 아니고 - (아니다) - is not, be not -고 - and (also), as well as, both, along with -도 - also, too *Looking for a Mr. Kim in Seoul - pg.14
... Some historians think the Eqyptians were the first to believe in only one God. Wil I think it is ridiculous to believe everything in the Bible and think God wrote it. I actually watch many History, Natgeo, Discover, and Animal Planet channels. I have always loved history and archeology, too. I believe the earth is about 4.5 billion years old - - not 6500 years old. I omitted the fact that...
