![]() Obviously just connecting your thighs to the opposite soles of the foot with a length of wire isn't going to do anything, but I was wondering what he'd say to touching feet & thighs with another person to mimic the effect of sitting in full lotus without actually having to do it. In the book he said that sitting in the full lotus is sort of like completing a circuit with a battery. I've tried PM'ing void with questions, but he's asking for money. ![]() ![]() I plan on practicing improving my flexibility either way, but if I can get & give orgasms out of it, all the better! And if I can prove it's a load of nonsense, that's also good. Improving my flexibility (which I admit is lousy to begin with) is something I've been meaning to do for years, because I remember as a kid being pretty close to doing a full split & my lack of flexibility makes me feel old. ![]() Basically nothing mentioned in it seems to have any sort of practical application except there was quite a bit about sitting in the full lotus position for an extended period causing all sorts of funny & very hard to believe things like inducing orgasm in people at a distance. Form member Voidisyinyang published an eBook called The Alchemy of Rainbow Heart Music which despite being over 600 pages long & badly written (which he says is because it's written in a "right brain" way) I managed to read all the way through it. ![]()

Both assume that planning entails the enshrining of a single plan and the suppression of all other individual plans. Despite their diverse aesthetic preferences, Corbusier and Howard share much in common. While many take Jacobs’ essential contribution to be her insights into urban design, her subversion begins at the theoretical level in the introduction to The Death and Life of Great American Cities. With her characteristically deceptive simplicity, she invites us to ask, “Who plans?” ![]() When in 1961 Jane Jacobs set out to attack the orthodox tradition of urban planning, it was this dogma that landed squarely in her crosshairs. With the question framed as “To plan or not to plan?” students and practitioners answer with an emphatic “Yes,” subsequently setting out to impose their particular ideal order on what they perceived to be, as Lewis Mumford put it, “solidified chaos.” Whether through the controlled centralization of Le Corbusier or the controlled decentralization of Ebenezer Howard and Frank Lloyd Wright, cities were to be just that: controlled. For most of the field’s history, prominent urban planning theorists have taken for granted that cities require extensive central planning. ![]() ![]() Why the government has a responsibility to protect economic freedom by breaking up monopolies, providing those services that the private sector cannot, and prudently managing the money supply.How economic freedom is essential to political freedom.While reasonable people can disagree about the effects of Friedman’s ideas in the real world, no one can deny their influence. Over the past 40 years, governments across the Western Hemisphere have reoriented their economic strategies toward more market-based solutions, including reducing marginal tax rates, all but eliminating tariffs, privatizing public monopolies, and even introducing choice and competition in public education. ![]() Today, it is hard to overstate the extent to which Friedman’s once-controversial ideas have triumphed.

If you care about ideas, or the underpinnings of human nature, you should read it. Whether or not its subjects would accept its validity, The Undoing Project is a fine book. They proved not only that our memories play tricks, but that analysis of the past tends to be misleading, not least because we retrospectively turn possibilities into inevitabilities. Both Tversky and Kahneman were skeptical of history and biography. But there is another irony that undermines The Undoing Project. He spent five years persuading Kahneman to let him write it, and years before that watching him agonize over Thinking, Fast and Slow. You can hardly blame Lewis for any of this, or accuse him of jumping on a bandwagon.

As she was thus protected, many of Ilse's experiences were those of any German child, and she was in fact tapped for leadership in the Hitler Youth - an awkward situation for one who had promised her father never to accept such a position. Later she learned that the divorce had been engineered by her mother's parents to save their daughter and granddaughter from being linked with her father's Jewish mother at the time she knew only that her father wanted Germany to lose the war and that her grandparents, like many others, thought Hitler was a maniac. Born in 1929, Ilse Koehn was puzzled by her loving parents' divorce in the Thirties, and until their reunion after the war she was shunted from one grandmother to another and to various camps for young evacuees and Hitler youth. ![]() |
