Religion and Philosophy: May 2015
http://religionphilosophy.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, 31 May 2015. Consciousness is a process in an organism. Not in an immaterial soul. Therefore, it is continually affected by other organic processes. Most, including early, consciousness is not dispassionate. Instead, it is motivated by biological processes. Then by emergent psychological processes. Psychology is of consciousness. However, paradoxically, many psychological processes remain or become unconscious. Momentary individual consciousness contains:. Immediate sensory impressions;. Meanwhil...

Comics Appreciation: February 2015
http://comicsappreciation.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Saturday, 28 February 2015. Martha does not ask Clark how he knows that Lionel knows his secret. The answer would have been alarming. Jonathan, who is dead, told him. Martha immediately concludes that Lionel was behind the blackmail that he claimed to have sorted out. Lionel surely proves himself. He is willing to die for Martha and Clark and he keeps Clark's secret from Lex. But surely Lex now has sufficient evidence that Clark has super-speed and super-strength? Clark is far too hostile towards Lionel.

Comics Appreciation: October 2014
http://comicsappreciation.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Friday, 31 October 2014. DC Comics have Wonderwoman. The Superman titles have Supergirl. The original Captain Marvel has Mary Marvel. Mick Anglo's Marvelman had Kid Marvelman instead of a female character. Alan Moore restored a female character to the Marvel/Miracle Family:. To have seen her then, as Liz described her later: cold and glittering, a statue of cut glass, immaculate save for gauntlets darkened by unEarthly blood. Aphrodite risen from the churning foam where fell the manhood of Cronos.".

Poul Anderson Appreciation: Oscar Wilde
http://poulandersonappreciation.blogspot.com/2015/08/oscar-wilde.html
Sunday, 16 August 2015. Writers sometimes have fun imagining what a real person would say in a fictional situation. Poul Anderson gives us several historical figures but maybe not any recent or contemporary celebrities? Brian Aldiss fictionally quoted Aldous Huxley in an early novel. William Clinton spoke at Superman's funeral because he was President of the United States in 1993. Earlier, Supes had conversed with Ronald Reagan. Wilde responds, "Heavens, no! Can't stand the man! New York, 1991), p. 71.

Personal and Literary Reflections. Tuesday, 9 July 2013. Lack Of Preparation for Life. I emerged from secondary school in 1967, aged 18:. Immature, inexperienced, indoctrinated, ignorant, repressed, uninformed, misinformed, misled yet opinionated but otherwise discouraged and demoralized;. Unprepared for higher education, work, life or personal relationships;. Did I get anything from school apart from University entrance exam passes? Our starting point is determined by parents or society;. Simple templat...

Poul Anderson Appreciation: Time Travel And Alternative Histories
http://poulandersonappreciation.blogspot.com/2015/08/time-travel-and-alternative-histories.html
Saturday, 15 August 2015. Time Travel And Alternative Histories. Imagine a Venn diagram. Comprising two overlapping circles. Circle 1 represents time travel fiction whereas Circle 2 represents alternative history fiction:. Inside Circle 1 but outside the area of overlap are (among many other works) Poul Anderson's The Corridors Of Time. However, all the alternative histories discussed so far contrast with three others presented by Anderson:. In Three Hearts And Three Lions. A man travels from our twentie...

Wednesday, 28 January 2015. Professor Milton Fine lectures on the Roman Empire, comparing it to Luthorcorp. He reveals, to the viewers, some of his alien aspect and agenda. Cooperation between Clark and Lex is not finished yet. Lex is concerned about Clark's friendship with Fine since the latter is accessing confidential Luthorcorp documents.

Saturday, 4 July 2015. Superman In Public Consciousness And Popular Culture. Regular readers might remember that recently I have:. Reread Rick Veitch's (sequel to Alan Moore's) Swamp Thing. Been reading for the first time SM Stirling's Conquistador. Been enjoying these texts while also spotting any connections with the works of Poul Anderson. Why is it when I'm talking to you, you always seem to be listening to something else? Lois Lane: There you go again! I start talking and you stare off into space!
