daily minute: Reaching Beyond the Human
http://daily-minute.blogspot.com/2007/03/reaching-beyond-human.html
Sparse in punctuation.abundant in ideas. Thursday, March 22, 2007. Reaching Beyond the Human. However, as long as the human being's relationship to those beings that surround and carry it, as well as to the being which it itself is, rests on the letting-appear, on the spoken and unspoken saying, the attack of the technological language on what is peculiar to language is at the same time the threat to the human being's ownmost essence" (Martin Heidegger, Ibid, p.141).

http://daily-minute.blogspot.com/2007/05/revolution-is-just-t-shirt-away.html
Sparse in punctuation.abundant in ideas. Friday, May 11, 2007. Revolution is just a t-shirt away. So, conclusion.I do think all this 'green' awareness is wonderful and hopeful and suggestive, but I really do hope that it will not all be washed away, diluted, and co-opted into another great marketing scheme that ultimately continues to do a disservice to the Earth community.

daily minute: The Work World and Objectification
http://daily-minute.blogspot.com/2007/03/work-world-and-objectification.html
Sparse in punctuation.abundant in ideas. Thursday, March 8, 2007. The Work World and Objectification. A 'debate' which took place over a period of many years between two highly esteemed philosophers, Jurgen Habermas and Herbert Marcuse, speaks directly to my earlier posts on domination, objectification, and the irrationality of capitalism. Let me see if I can encapsulate some of their ideas here. I'll try to finally tie all of this together tomorrow, since I am, once again, out of time. I don't think tha...

daily minute: Who's the Real Gourmand/e?
http://daily-minute.blogspot.com/2007/03/whose-real-gourmande.html
Sparse in punctuation.abundant in ideas. Monday, March 26, 2007. Who's the Real Gourmand/e? 8220;For those Gourmet readers who enjoy well-prepared and –presented meals involving beef, veal, lamb, pork, chicken, lobster, etc.: Do you think much about the (possible) moral status and (probable) suffering of the animals involved? After all, isn’t being extra aware and attentive and thoughtful about one’s food and its overall context part of what distinguishes a real gourmet? 8221; (Wallace 2006:253-254).

daily minute: A Taste for Silence
http://daily-minute.blogspot.com/2007/05/taste-for-silence.html
Sparse in punctuation.abundant in ideas. Tuesday, May 15, 2007. A Taste for Silence. Do they flee from their own thoughts? Do they flee from social interaction? These questions may seem to overestimate the valence of such a practice, but really, what does such a practice say about the state of the individual's comfort with themself or others? Furthermore, why is the practice verging on normalized? What does this say about the state of a society in which this is brushed off? On Keeping an Open Mind. I am ...

daily minute: The Power Within
http://daily-minute.blogspot.com/2007/03/power-within.html
Sparse in punctuation.abundant in ideas. Thursday, March 1, 2007. I have a number of 'problems' with this behaviour. However, what I will offer in my polemic / quickly expiring minute today is a series of questions: Why not open the door yourself? Why not build a tiny bit of strength, burn some calories, and save some collective/public power? Use your power within - to use a most irritating, misused and abused, new age phrase. So, why not stop using elevators and escalators when stairs are available?

daily minute: Be my Facebook friend
http://daily-minute.blogspot.com/2007/05/be-my-facebook-friend.html
Sparse in punctuation.abundant in ideas. Monday, May 7, 2007. Be my Facebook friend. So, I guess I missed the press release (which must have come out mid-March 2007) inviting the citizens of the world to join Facebook. In any case, somehow, in the space of 2 weeks I got dozens of invitations to be 'friends' with people I was A) already friends with; B) had once been friends with; and C) knew in passing and was 'friends' with. Will it be another place to gossip? To parade one's new duds/glamour shots?
