The Golden Hinde: SAS At This Moment
http://wwwgoldenhinde.blogspot.com/2008/01/sas-at-this-moment.html
Sunday, 20 January 2008. SAS At This Moment. After the stress of applying for jobs this August pivoted over the past two weeks, just getting the green light from my supervisor chillaxing in her home turf of Melbourne and then a well deserved break in Dundee over tea, muffins and cakes with Reem, I’ve been hanging out with the SAS. I had previously hung out with SMUR. In Lille in the 90s and enjoyed the experience even though they were French (heh). If you can call it that. One notable patient I came acro...

The Golden Hinde: Lions For Lambs
http://wwwgoldenhinde.blogspot.com/2007/11/lions-for-lambs.html
Thursday, 15 November 2007. The film was more intellectually engaging than say,. But that is not saying much) yet still came across as trite…but then again Redford was deft enough to realize not to delve too deeply on the issues regarding what motivates us as individuals and on the “War on Terror”, vast topics that tends to polarise (or…paralyse) people, lest it. Alienate the movie going American public whose Friday night entertainment peaks at the level of Bee Movie. Two model soldiers (played by Michae...

The Golden Hinde: A Jew, Muslim, Christian, Atheist And A Vampyre…
http://wwwgoldenhinde.blogspot.com/2007/12/jew-muslim-christian-atheist-and.html
Saturday, 1 December 2007. A Jew, Muslim, Christian, Atheist And A Vampyre…. 8230;walked into a bar. Okay, okay…actually they are characters from the last few books I read. Well, along with tempting offers to the mind-numbing paradise that is digital satellite TV, I got yet. Elizabeth Kostova’s “The Historian” (2005). This book left me anaemic with horror. Horrified at how interminably boring it was. Should be a winning combination for me…especially when a character utters thus:. I do in fact utter.

The Golden Hinde: Israel is a state formed and maintained by war
http://wwwgoldenhinde.blogspot.com/2009/01/how-israel-brought-gaza-to-brink-of.html
Wednesday, 7 January 2009. Israel is a state formed and maintained by war. A wounded Palestinian policeman gestures while lying on the ground outside Hamas police headquarters following an Israeli air strike in Gaza City. Photograph: Mohammed Abed/AFP/Getty Images. I urge everyone to read it. One of my favourite wartime reportage books is by an Israeli journalist Amira Hass who chose to live amongst the Palestinians in Gaza and report eloquently on a society the average Israeli (or the rest of the world)...

The Golden Hinde: All Cartoons Are Created Equal, But Some Cartoons Are More Equal Than Others
http://wwwgoldenhinde.blogspot.com/2008/02/all-cartoons-are-created-equal-but-some.html
Friday, 22 February 2008. All Cartoons Are Created Equal, But Some Cartoons Are More Equal Than Others. The Prophet Muhammed (PBUH) cartoon controversy raised interesting valid points of discussion and the range of opinions expressed was often very revealing regarding what innervated individuals and groups. I thought the re-publication of one of the more insulting cartoons recently. And here are my reasons:. An open polite letter. To the Danish Prime Minister by Muslim leaders from at least 11 countries ...

The Golden Hinde: Happy Winterval
http://wwwgoldenhinde.blogspot.com/2007/12/happy-winterval.html
Sunday, 30 December 2007. The German origin of the modern Christmas tree. The Germans had quite a religious feeling for their. Which in turn stemmed from the pagan ancestral worship of the trees of the wood. Thus saith the LORD, Learn not the way of the heathen, and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the heathen are dismayed at them. For the customs of the people [are] vain: for [one] cutteth a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the axe. But back on topic. I don&#...

The Golden Hinde: Take Turns
http://wwwgoldenhinde.blogspot.com/2007/11/take-turns_29.html
Thursday, 29 November 2007. This is the popular right brain vs left brain test. Look at the picture. If you see the dancer turning clockwise, you use more of the right side of your brain. If you see the dancer turning anti-clockwise, you use more of the left side of your brain. Most of us would see the dancer turning anti-clockwise and if you focus you can also change direction of the dancer. Can "get it" (i.e. meaning). What do I see? That to me is out-right proof that one. 29 November 2007 at 21:42.

http://wwwgoldenhinde.blogspot.com/2008/02/i-used-to-write-with-pen_03.html
Sunday, 3 February 2008. I Used To Write With A Pen. 8230;Skulptur…you know I love the embarrassed Bavarian way you pronounce it…. The days have whizzed by so fast yet so slow…I have pretty much been working almost everyday for the past month and have so much to say and write yet never seemingly having the time to sit down and uncork my brain. I owe e-mails to so many people everyone must think I don’t give a shit! 8230;the meals we made together for a party at her place…the stunning medieval town ...
