99 Red Balloons - The Adventures of a Confounded Spinning Ball. The Adventures of a Confounded Spinning Ball. Nov 2nd, 2006 02:37 pm. The Adventures of a Confounded Spinning Ball. This morning, during my almost daily trip to the coffee stand down the street, just before my morning walk, I heard the old Nena song, 99 Red Balloons, playing. I love that song, as does nearly everyone who was young and concious during the height of the Cold War. But nuclear war between the United States and Soviet Union nearl...

Developing World Still Short on Food, Laptops. Millions of free laptops for developing world's kids. Nov 30th, 2007 11:44 pm. Over 74,600 participants fell by the wayside. But after typing the last sentence in my novel, I uploaded the document, and was declared one of 15,329 winners. National Novel Writing Month Founder, Chris Baty, wrote on the resulting victor's page that it was one of the hardest years on record. Then he put a question forward. I'll update this post in a bit. After I calm down. Intel'...

Want a gift of 2 extra hours every day?!: longevity
http://longevity.livejournal.com/27517.html
Want a gift of 2 extra hours every day? I was an 8 hour sleeper (maybe 7.5). Now, for going on 6 weeks, I'm at 5.6 -1. (This morning, 4.5.and I feel terrific.). Be high-energy transitionalness (surges of motive power for fresh personal opportunities).but I doubt it because I've never experienced a sleep shift nearly this profound. I bet it's the 5-HTP. To feel more rested.but nothing like this! I've never heard a report of suddenly sleeping much less and feeling as or more rested. Post a new comment.

And Then There Was One - Searching for Gray
http://jtcarroll.livejournal.com/5556.html
And Then There Was One. And Then There Was One. Last week my mother told the story about when, two weeks into my kindergarten class, the school called and asked her to come in. What’d he do? Only, here’s the punch line. My parents didn’t know I could read. We saw him sitting on the floor looking at comics, and we thought he was just looking at the pictures. It’s about being solitary.

Future Economist - marknau. June 14th, 2008. Couple nights ago, I was kid-watching so Sister and Wife could have a "wild night" out on the town. Four kids is usually easier than two, because with two, I am mainly the entertainment. With four, I am occasional referee. Anyhow, we were winding down with some relaxing Unbeatable Banzuke on the TV, and when the show was over, it was time to send them off to bed. Everyone head on out! Make sure you have everything you need for sleeptime!

What's next? - Searching for Gray
http://jtcarroll.livejournal.com/5922.html
At the end of the semester, all the pots are judged. And the teacher has made her point. The teacher also noted how much more anxiety the quality group experienced. Unlike the quantity group, who exposed themselves to the fear of creation multiple times, the quality group spent most of their time anticipating how people would judge their product. It's 2:30 am and Liz has been gone for nearly four hours. I pick up the phone to call her, but the quivering sound of the dial tone halts me. I've alrea...She s...

Properties of Successful Failed States - Radio Free Meredith
http://maradydd.livejournal.com/536477.html
Science keeps me warm at night. Properties of Successful Failed States. Mar 14th, 2015 at 3:24 PM. I've honestly never found much to get worked up over about neoreaction. We've been here before, and we'll be here again. The main thrust of the neoreactionary argument, as I see it — or, at least the part that interests me — is that the cost of a state failing is so catastrophically large that it's really worth looking critically at. Buckminster Fuller would be proud. But with crash-only software, "time to ...
