Communication Skills
Isn't it amazing how two people can relate a story but you'd never know they were talking about the same thing? In fact, based on their observations, it's hard to believe they are relating similar experiences. That's the focus of our relationship letters this week. Just think 'not a clue' or 'a step away from reality' and you'll be right on target. Our communicative advisors discuss options.
Two dates to true love
Dear Conversely,
There's a woman I am madly in love with and she won't return my phone calls. I've gone on two dates with her and both were really good. We laughed and drank and she looked like she was having a nice time, but when I asked if we could do it again, she made up all these excuses. I don't know if she's playing hard to get or all that rules crap. I hope not, but if she is, what should I do?
Dear Madly,
First of all, after two dates, you are madly 'in like.' So stop the melodramatics. Secondly, 'the rules' say she should agree to make another date with you and then be very coy about schedulingnot negate you altogether. So she has missed a key point if her goal is to win at 'the rules' rather than have a boyfriend.
Let us take a closer look at these dates. Perhaps she had a fine time on your dates, but could it be that you are not as suave as you think you are? Could it be that you had a couple of very nice but not amazing dates? Perhaps she has had better dates? Now I know this seems very low in probability, but even you must believe that it is possible.
Give her some room to mull. Do not continuously beg her for scraps of time. Give her a call in a few weeks and ask if she'd like to have coffee? Make it simple.
If she is still not interested, there is nothing wily in her communication. She simply doesn't like you.
Dear Madly,
Let's put 'the rules' aside for a moment and analyze the situation.
One goes on a date and thinks, 'If she had a good time, she would probably like to have another good time in the not-too-distant future.'
Then one discovers that a good time does not equate a next time. Why? Mainly, because life isn't fair. But also because having a good time with you doesn't imply that she wants a relationship with you. You may lack certain attributes that she is seeking. For example, you are witty and know how to enjoy yourself, but you have no job or no hair or no shared interests.
If you assume the woman is logical, then you should recognize her lack of interest in a follow-up rendezvous as a sign of her lack of interest in you. If the woman is not logical...if she is, for example, an avid reader and follower of 'the rules'...then you might guess that she is very interested in you. So interested, in fact, that she has convinced herself the best way to demonstrate it is by playing hard-to-get.
That's the good news. The bad news is that she has also demonstrated terrible judgment and a tendency to be easily swayed (at best) by questionable advice.
In either case, forget about her, and stop pestering her.
62% of Women agree with HER VIEW and 38% with HIS VIEW.

Executive order canceled 129,000 immigrant visas
"The refugee crisis, the millions that are displaced…Now is not the time to be spectators, we need to be involved: Generous with our time, money and with our feet." --Rabbi Scott Meltzer
By Thea Skinner
February 6, 2017 (San Diego) -- Days before U.S. District Judge James Robard halted an executive order to bar immigrant travel, the Jewish community and official leaders organized at Congregation Beth El in La Jolla on February 2nd.
Such interfaith and intercommunity relations are the focus of solutions to what is emerging as a national climate of hate. Following President Donald Trump's Jan 27th executive order that barred entry to refugees and citizens from 7 nations, community leaders here urged action and support in lifting the ban, along with a rapid advancement of several key state policies over the next 120 days.
Legislative topics included Senate Bills 6 and 54, along with immigration actions in the 1940s that gave rise to today's refugee policies in conjunction with shared values.
"We have come here tonight seeking comfort of community not as Democrats, as Jews, as a wandering people looking for home," said Rabbi Yael Ridberg of Congregation Dor Hadas in opening remarks inside the packed synagogue. "Thousands of years ago, our ancestors' struggles has deepened into our consciousness. From the narrowness of a tight place we were called out more than once in spiritual (aim). We know how to rise above closed minds. We have seen doors slammed shut."
He recalled immigration legislation pushed through keep America free of "suspicious immigrants." Many refugees were denied entry during World War II, including some who perished in the Holocaust.
Current U.S. refugee policy is a result of the Holocaust of the 1940s that oppressed and killed scores of the Jewish faith.
California State Assemblymember Todd Gloria, 78th District, stated, "We will be a beacon of home to the people across the country. As your state elected official, I ask you not to be complacent and thank you all for being here."
Assemblymember Gloria mentioned the importance of the January 24 bill amendments to SB 6 and SB 54, which may take effect with or without the Governor's signature. SB 6 requires the state's Department of Social Services to work with nonprofits and SB 54 holds several requirements including "within 3 months after the effective date of the bill, the Attorney General to publish model contractual provisions for all state agencies that partner with private vendors for data collection purposes to ensure that those vendors comply with the confidentiality policies, as specified."
Jewish Family Services, JFS, is one of four nonprofits in the county to resettle refugees of all backgrounds and faiths. Michael Hopkins CEO of JFS, also a representative of the Leichtag Foundation, which provides grants and began the Syrian Refugee Initiative in 2015, echoed excessive vetting already in place to establish refugee status.
"In 2016, 4,000 individuals from 25 different countries were resettled. Because of the executive order, 129,000 people had their immigration process canceled," Hopkins said. "It seems like extreme vetting to me to meet with so many agencies….Less than one percent of worldwide refugees are resettled. Our government selects you. Most refugees wait five years… Not one has been involved in an act of terrorism."
Councilwoman Barbara Bry, District 1, mentioned that the San Diego Affairs Board has made the city a "knowledge capital" open to innovative companies, some whose leaders were born outside of the U.S.
"Our national identity is a patchwork of diverse cultures. I want to leave the world better for my children and grandchildren. I want them to know I stand with refugees," she said. "I am honored to be here in my own synagogue. I grew-up in a Jewish household outside of Philadelphia. History has shown us singling out religious groups betrays our values. Shutting out immigrants is not only the wrong thing to do, it is short sighted."
Rabbi Scott Meltzer of Ohr Shalom Synagogue stated, "We are a people that think and process. Do not run and hide or think throwing a bucket of water on it fixes it. This is the time there is no running, no quick fit."
"Remember this moment. You're beautiful. Three things," he listed:
1. The bush was not consumed.
2. Do not stand idly by while our neighbor bleeds.
3. Perhaps we have the power we have for exactly this moment.
"The refugee crisis, the millions that are displaced. Now is not the time to be spectators, we need to be involved: Generous with our time, money and with our feet," Rabbi Meltzer said. "In one month we celebrate Purim."
Purim is a Jewish holiday celebrated March 11th and 12th, commemorating the saving of Jewish people from Haman, whom planned to kill all Jews.
Rabbi Ridberg closed in similar sentiment, "Our call to action is because the protection of the vulnerable is vital to our shared humanity...We are afraid we are next," said Rabbi Ridberg. "We wandered because we were different....Because we are refugees, our Judaism got us rejected on our very shores...We will be the clarion call for every value."

Robinson Crusoe: The Game
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
It's not that hard at all, actually
Great game, entertainig for certainly 20 minutes.
Decent graphics, not all that annoying music. I wish there was a way to skip the first cutscene though (unless there is, and I am retarded.)
To people who are finding this game too hard, here is some advice:
On the first day, when your character is still relatively fit, walk around the shore to find all tools. After you've found them the game will get progressively easy. I couldn't find Wilbert though. :(
Hedgehog Launch 2
Rated 4 / 5 stars
Graphical wise it's fine. Quite simple, but entertaining. Music was annoying, but you could mute it so I guess that's fine. What this game could really, really, really use, however, is a Fast Forward button. Because I cba waiting for like 3 to 4 minutes every time i'm out of fuel.
Dragon Boy
Rated 0 / 5 stars
Little exploit
I haven't thoroughly played the game yet, so I can only review it untill how far I've played it yet.
When I dual wield an axe (+20, slow attack speed) in my main hand, and a mace (+3, fast attack speed) in my off-hand, the attacking speed seems to become that off the mace. So now i've got a +20, fast attacking axe. When I get the mace in my main hand and the axe in my off-hand, It gets the attacking speed of the axe. Might want to do something about this.
As for the game itself; It's good. Graphics are simple, but nice. The attacking system is wonderfull, the menu music is well chosen, and the SFX are quite decent. The game on it's own is good, you actually can play this for a couple off hours straight without getting bored.
Hope to see more off your work!
~sorry for my terrible English ;)

Germany eyes Iran business but Israel tops differences – AFP
by Newsstand
Tehran – A German delegation led a much anticipated international push for new business in Iran on Monday, but a top official visiting Tehran put Israel at the top of their differences.
The remarks by Sigmar Gabriel, Germany's economy minister and Chancellor Angela Merkel's deputy, underscored that despite last week's nuclear deal between Iran and world powers any discussions on wider policy in the Middle East are likely to run into difficulties.
Iran does not recognise Israel — the biggest opponent of the West's diplomatic outreach on the nuclear issue — and officials routinely call for destruction of the leaders of "the Zionist regime".
The nuclear deal has been touted as an opening for greater contact between Iran and the leading nations over common interests, particularly on tackling the jihadist Islamic State group in Iraq and Syria.
Gabriel, accompanied by dozens of German business leaders, said the accord struck in Vienna "established the foundation" for boosting security in the Middle East, but Israel should fall within such discussions.
And while Germany is willing to re-engage with Iran on economic matters it would not preclude leaders in Tehran having to "bear new responsibilities, at home and abroad", said the vice chancellor.
"You must understand that for us Germans, the security of the state of Israel is also of great importance," he said.
"I understand how difficult the debate is and we in Germany also believe that the Palestinians have a right to their own state. That must be our shared international goal.
"Good relations with Germany also means at the same time that we must not question the security of the state of Israel."
Gabriel's comments came minutes after Iranian officials had laid out their plans to attract foreign business back to Tehran once sanctions are lifted under last week's nuclear deal.
Those include favourable tax conditions and faster processing time (15 days) for applications from foreign businesses wanting to do business in the Islamic republic.
- Energy remains prime target –
Iran has said it needs tens of billions of dollars of investment and western technology to revive projects in its oil, gas and petrochemical industries, which have suffered in recent years under sanctions.
The country's oil ministry in the next few months plans to unveil more attractive terms for contracts involving international firms.
After mentioning Israel, Gabriel said there was a need to "discuss difficult issues openly, in a spirit of partnership and respectfully" and "nothing needs to change in that friendship even if we hold different views".
But during a 20-minute speech he also highlighted other differences with Iran, including human rights, women's standing in society, competition law and efforts to combat corruption.
Mentioning the free establishment of business contracts, Gabriel added: "We want to discuss this with you as friends. And we believe that it will be a fruitful dialogue. I am convinced that economic freedom also needs individuality and the development of individual freedoms."
Transparency International ranks Iran as one of the most corrupt countries in the world.
Gabriel's comments on Israel drew a quick response from foreign ministry spokeswoman Marzieh Afkham, who said such longstanding differences with Germany had not affected other "constructive contacts".
"The main part of the dialogue is about the prospect of bilateral cooperation and naturally we will express our concerns about the region, including existing threats, including threats of the Zionist regime and the roots of the crises in the region," she added.
Tens of thousands of people gathered in Tehran on July 10 for annual Quds (Jerusalem) Day demonstrations in support of the Palestinians.
As is customary at such gatherings, the crowd chanted "Down with Israel" and carried placards that declared "Zionist soldiers kill Muslims". They also burned Israeli and US flags.
Such spectacles are cited by Iran's opponents as reasons for not doing business in Tehran, but international trade is expected to boom if the nuclear deal is successfully implemented.
Iran's market of 78 million people and educated workforce is long seen as untapped, and its energy sector is considered a juicy target.
With the fourth-largest oil reserves and the second in gas, Iran has the biggest combined energy deposits in the world.

Taylor Swift is heading to court next week as she takes on the radio DJ who she said groped her several years ago.
The incident allegedly happened after a June 2013 concert when Swift was 23. David Mueller, who was a radio personality with 98.5 KYGO in Denver at the time, met Swift after the concert.
After posing with Swift for a photo, Swift's security team later accused him of inappropriately grabbing Swift's rear end and he was subsequently fired, Mueller said in a lawsuit he filed against the star.
Swift stated in her deposition, "Right as the moment came for us to pose for the photo, he took his hand and put it up my dress and grabbed onto my ass cheek, and no matter how much I scooted over, it was still there. It was completely intentional. I've never been so sure of anything in my life."
There is a photograph that allegedly shows the DJ groping her that photo sealed from the public.
Here's what you should know about the case as it heads to court in Denver next week:
Mueller sued Swift first
Mueller sued Swift in September 2015 after he said he was fired from his job and lost other business opportunities because of the allegations.
He has said that his former boss, Eddie Haskell, was the one who allegedly groped Swift after the Pepsi Center concert, claiming that he heard Haskell bragging about it, according to Billboard.
The Denver Post reported that Mueller was making a base salary of $150,000 when he was fired – not including bonuses, product endorsement fees and other public appearance fees.
Swift countersued
Swift countersued Mueller in October 2015 – and demanded a jury trial, People reported at the time.
"Resolution of this Counterclaim will demonstrate that Mueller alone was the perpetrator of the humiliating and wrongful conduct targeted against Ms. Swift, and will serve as an example to other women who may resist publicly reliving similar outrageous and humiliating acts," the countersuit states.
Her countersuit claims that Mueller was fired twice from other on-air radio jobs and hadn't worked as an on-air personality since May 2006.
Swift said that she would donate any money won in the trial to "charitable organizations dedicated to protecting women from similar acts of sexual assault and personal disregard."
Swift already won a pre-trial victory
A federal judge sanctioned Mueller last month as he admitted to losing or destroying electronic devices that could have contained key evidence – including a recorded conversation between him and his boss the day before he was fired.
U.S. District Judge William Martinez said the lost data was critical evidence in the case.
Fans can attend the trial – but there's a catch
Passes will be available to the public on a first-come, first-serve basis for morning and afternoon sessions, according to the Denver Post.
The court has made available 32 passes for the courtroom and 75 for an overflow room where the trial will be viewed on a closed-circuit television.
But for those wishing to attend the trial, there are some rules, the Denver Post reported.
Attendees can't bring phones, tablets or laptops with them.
And attendees are prohibited from wearing any clothing or buttons that include the names of anyone involved with the trial or that address the issue.
More trial details
The trial is expected to last approximately nine days, according to the Denver Post.
And while the trial will begin Monday, Swift and Mueller don't need to be in court until Tuesday when opening statements are expected to be given.
Swift's mother, Andrea Swift, is listed as a witness and may testify, according to court documents.

This House of Commons Library briefing paper provides information about the means-test that applies to care home residents and those in other settings (such as those receiving care at home) in need of social care, and provides information on personal budgets.Jump to full report >>
From April 2015, new rules apply in respect of those who either reside in a care home, or receive domiciliary care (i.e. care at home) and are in need of care and support from their local authority. The rules are set out in the Department of Health's Care and Support Statutory Guidance.
In summary:
At present, the value of a person's home is only taken into account in the means-test if they are a care home resident - even then there a number of circumstances where it has to be disregarded (e.g. if a spouse and certain other relatives continues to live it), and local authorities also have a general discretion to choose to disregard it.
For those in receipt of domiciliary care, the value of their home is excluded from the means-test. However, the current Government's manifesto proposed changing this long-standing approach. Further details are expected to be set out in a forthcoming Green Paper. For more information on the manifesto, see section 6 of the Library briefing paper Social care: Government reviews and policy proposals for paying for care since 1997 (England).
This note applies to England only.
Further information on the current social care funding system can be found in:
It had been planned that a more generous means-test and a cap limiting the amount a person had to contribute during their lifetime to their social care funding would be introduced in April 2016; these were postponed in an announcement made by the Government in July 2015. Further information can be found in the following Library briefing papers:

College coaches are constantly looking for the best players to fill next year's open positions, and rely on many different methods to finding the right recruits.

Stay in great shape, even through the off-season. Being physically fit includes knowing about nutrition, staying healthy, and not overworking your body before big games. Practice the basics, over and over, especially targeting skills related to your position. Become a super-specialist, and you'll always find your place on an athletic team. Keep your eyes on the ball, and sacrifice your body if you must, but don't drop the ball.
Watch the ball all the way into your hands, and get a good initial grip. Your sixth sense needs to be developed to stay aware of other players at the same time. Follow the advice that college coaches give you, and it will make a big difference in how you play. That's because most college coaching staff were star players at some point in their careers. Some Armstrong Atlantic State University physical education class may indicate that it's an option to delay college entrance by a year. An extra year in high school or prep school can allow players to mature mentally, bring grades and SAT test scores up, put on weight and gain strength.

Google to Go Ahead with Yahoo DealBy Reuters - | Posted 2008-08-29 Email Print
WEBINAR: On-demand webcast
Next-Generation Applications Require the Power and Performance of Next-Generation Workstations REGISTER >
Awaiting U.S. government approval, Google says it is trying to move forward with a deal to place Google search ads on the number two search engine, Yahoo, an indication that Google is pushing for this deal to obtain approval as quickly as possible.
(Reuters) - Google Inc., facing a U.S. Justice Department probe of its search-advertising partnership with Yahoo Inc., will proceed with the agreement by early October, Bloomberg said.
"We are going to move forward," Google Chief Executive Eric Schmidt said in an interview with Bloomberg Television on Thursday in Denver.
"We are in the process of talking to the government. They've not indicated one way or the other how they're dealing with us," the news agency quoted Schmidt as saying.
Google, with more than 60 percent of the internet search market, and Yahoo, with 16.6 percent, agreed in June last month on an advertising partnership under which Yahoo will let Google put search ads on its site.
The deal has raised concerns that it will give Google too much power in the $65 billion online advertising market, and the U.S. Justice Department launched a formal antitrust investigation in July.
"We always worry a little bit, but we think our arguments are pretty strong," Schmidt told Bloomberg.
Google was not immediately available for comment.

Spirituality in a technological mediated environment
Life is a wonderful adventure
Life is a travel through storms
Life is an unusual travel
Life is a travel through many storms
Avalon a fulfilled dream
You see a land behind morning mist
Avalon a secret land
Get to know your true Avalon
In Avalon, a surrealistic film about life in the near future, where nature and seem to be absent, the world is full of gray flat blocks. Many young people escape to the world of an illegal computer game, called Avalon. They search for the adventure they miss in daily life. The adventure is one big war game, where players become soldiers and fight other soldiers, tanks and helicopters. In order to access this computer game, a player needs to enter a 'cockpit, using a virtual reality helmet. This is the portal to the virtual reality of the dangerous war game of Avalon. The key figure of the film is Ash, a thirty-year-old woman. She is a very experienced player and even gains real money when she wins battles played in the game. Ash is a very lonely person, who has only her dog and the virtual reality of Avalon.
Avalon is a dangerous game. When a player is hurt too much, he or she cannot return to the real world. One of Ash's friends went 'game over' and lies in coma in the hospital. However, there is a chance that this friend is actually living in a 'higher' reality, a hidden level in the game. Ash, who is very worried about her friend, takes high risks to enter this level. As she becomes more and more involved with the game, real life, in the form of her dog, for whom she prepares food, fades away. When she returns from the game, she cannot find her dog anymore.
Avalon: The hidden Level
Finally, Ash succeeds in entering this hidden level. This is a world that looks real; she sees colors and naturally looking people. She leaves the technological artifacts behind and enters this world that seems to be more real than daily life. There, she meets her friend in a garden. She confronts him with the fact that he has betrayed the group of warriors and that he entered this higher level alone. This is not the real world, she declares. He, however, argues that this virtual world is real. But, to really become part of Avalon, they have to fight. One has to die so that the other can stay. Ash is able to shoot her friend in a duel and enter Avalon. Is Avalon the beginning of the end or a better world than daily life? This question is not answered in the film and left for the audience. It is a question that is very relevant in the discourse of nature, technology and virtual reality.
Avalon, What is Real?
Technology and spirituality?
"The tension between religion and intellectual knowledge definitely comes to the fore where rational, empirical knowledge has consistently worked through the disenchantment of the world and its transformation into a causal mechanism"
To view our technological society as gray, too structured, and organized is often based on a romantic view of the past, when we lived in harmony with nature. Many people despise the urban environment and long for a living in the countryside. In the previous chapter, we saw that one of the major changes in the worldview has to do with scientific and technological developments. Spirituality is often connected to nature, especially in New Age thinking. The technological developments have, according to Max Weber, led to a disenchanted world. There seems to be no place for the supernatural in a highly technologically controlled world. Cyberspace is a product of highly complex computer technology. Therefore, we need to get a grasp of the essence of technology. What framework can technology offer?
Where is computer technology leading us?
To answer this question, I will present visions on the essence of nature and technology, presented by Francois Dagonet, Martin Heidegger and Michel Henry. Furthermore, I will argue why technology has received a new aura of enchantment, magic and spirituality and apply this to virtual reality. I will apply these views to the fascination for virtual worlds.
For the last two centuries, there have been large developments in science and technology. Nature has been the object of scientific research looking to master its power. It has become domesticated in gardens, parks and wild parks. The rise of technology and systematization has lead to demystification and disenchantment. Meanwhile, a rise of romantic longing for pure nature and authenticity emerged in the eighteenth and nineteenth century, represented by writers like Rousseau, poets like Goethe, and painters like Caspar David Friedrich, who painted the ´Wanderer above the sea of fog´. Those influences of romanticism are also visible in New Age spirituality, as I argued before.
The industrial revolution and the repression of laborers led Marx to compare machines to monsters that lead to the destruction and alienation from real life. The French philosopher Michel Henry, deeply influenced by Marx, eloquently expresses a very negative view on modern technology and science. Martin Heidegger states that we should be aware that technology has become a framework. The danger is that we do not acknowledge any more that we experience reality through this framework and take it for granted.
However, science and technology have always been seen as progress to a better future. David Nobel argues in his book, The Religion of Technology , that Christian scientists tried, with the use of technology, to regain paradise and to restore perfection. A good example of this thought is found in Francis Bacon's New Atlantis, in which he describes a perfect world where all kinds of technological innovations are integrated in society. Moreover, the complexity of technology, especially computer technology, has inspired many computer programmers to see technology as magic. The complexity of computer hardware and software can be domesticated by programming, but what exactly happens is not traceable and controllable anymore. Computer-mediated virtual environments even attract neo-pagans who consider technology as both magical and spiritual.
"On m'a donné un nom qui ne me convient pas ; on m'appelle nature et je suis tout art. Ne sais-tu pas qu'il y a un art infini dans les mers, dans les montages que tu trouves si brutes ? Ne sais-tu pas que toutes ces eaux gravitent vers le centre de la terre et ne s'élčvent que par des lois immuables, que ces montagnes sont les immenses réservoirs des neiges éternelles qui produisent sans cesse ces fontaines, ces lacs, ces fleuves, sans lesquelles mon genre animal et mon genre végétal periarient?"
What is nature? Many authors emphasize that the idea of nature that is common in popular culture, is in fact a romanticization of the last two centuries. Francois Dagonet starts by searching for the etymological roots of the word. It comes from the Latin natura, which is applicable to that which is being born and thus being engendered. In French, this root is still visible: se qui naît. Dagonet describes nature as that which is being born, the first, and the spontaneous. That which is born also dies, and this process goes on and on. The whole world reveals itself as part of nature; it is a mega-system that is completely autonomous.
That which is born is opposed to whatever is made by men. Nature is often seen as the exact opposite of the factory and the industry. Nature contains rhythm and permanence, but is at the same time a spontaneous movement, as opposed to the artificial. Shortly stated, it is alive. In Greek thought, the artifact, that which is produced by art, was a symbol of devastation. Artifacts are things; they are dead, and have no intrinsic properties to be what they are. The wood of a chair was not meant to become part of a chair. Nature contributes that which is constant, irreducible, unchangeable, but the "pact", or "contract" comes from mankind, as Rousseau argues. The contract is something arbitrary; it changes that which was fixed in time and place. Contracts are part of culture, and can be considered as artificial. The earth is praised as the surface where things grow, but things are often devalorized. Clothes, machines, and chairs are artifacts. Mass production, associated with standardization and devoid of creativity, has an especially bad name. Production is seen as inferior to procreation.
Technology is one of the terms often opposed to nature. Martin Heidegger regarded his era as a technological one. In his essay, ' Die Frage nach Technik', he asks what the essence of technology is. Heidegger avoids an instrumental or subjective interpretation of technology. He agrees that the functions of technology are instrumental, but states that this is not the whole truth. Therefore, he asks in which circumstances technology is made possible. The word technology comes from the Greek technč, which means art or craftsmanship. Making or fabricating a new object reveals something that did not exist before. That is why Heidegger sees technology as a way of revealing. It is a way of revealing that does not cover the whole reality; it is a framework. To clarify this idea, he uses the example of a painting with a list. The things, the instruments of technology, and the activities appear in a framework. The framework of the painting includes a world where things, people, trees, animals and buildings appear. The framework is the border between the world of the painting and what does not belong to it.
Technology is, in the ontological sense, not a collection of things and activities, but a mode of truth. This technological truth is what Heidegger calls Gestell. It is the way of enframing the possibilities where technology appears, and thus a way of revealing. The world in its technological form is what Heidegger calls Bestand. The world and nature are considered resources of energy that can be grasped and saved. Heidegger mentions the river Rhine as an example. The Rhine can be the source for a hydraulics station where electricity can be aroused. In this way, nature is seen as technology. Another example is the mining of carbon, where carbon is a source of energy that needs to be extracted from the soil. Dagonet argues that science is designed to reveal the essence of nature. In fields like biology and chemistry, many secrets of nature have been revealed.
This highly selective way of framing the world has a destiny. This destiny is, according to Heidegger, not fate, but a direction. One has to listen to, not obey, the essence of technology. When the essence of technology is grasped, it becomes possible to have a free relationship with it. The relationship to technology is in itself not technological, but existential. Thus, one must acknowledge that technology is not neutral, but ambiguous and mysterious. There are different responses to technology; varying from blind obeisance to blind rebellion. However, a free relationship is only possible when the essence is understood. The danger lies in seeing a part of reality as the whole truth.
Technology and alienation
The French philosopher and phenomenologist Michel Henry (1922-2002) holds very negative views about modern science and technology, because, according to him, they alienate us from an authentic life. His ideas seem to be close to the main concepts of New Age, where structures and science are viewed as blockades to reach the inner self. Life, according to Henry, reveals itself in a continuous self-experience. The human being is a whole, where body and soul are one. The self-experience is expressed in the physical, like the feeling of pain or the enjoyment of the warmth of the sun. It is not intentional, not purpose driven. It is an experience not expressed in language or narrative; the primary experience precedes reflection.
This experience in the form of non-intentional self-affection is what Henry considers to be the truth as internal structure. The world is concerned with truth as external structure, where concepts as intentionality and transcendence belong. Human beings live in the world and have to obey the laws of nature and the laws of the world. This is necessary in order to live together. The relationship between the internal structures expressed in self-experience and the external world should be maintained.
However, when knowledge and experience are objectified, this relationship is lost. This is exactly what happens in modern science. When knowledge is disconnected from experience, a disintegration of knowledge and life occurs. Life and experiences are made into objects that can be studied. A tree is reduced to an object of geometrical measures. Living creatures become alienated from their internal truth; the manifestation of colors, scents and sounds is lost. And this is, Henry argues, one of the causes of decay in Western culture.
Modern science and technology make an abstraction of sensibility. Where life and nature are reduced to systems, models and theories, technology becomes barbarian. The pretension of science to have the only possible perception of the world is a mistake. Henry argues that there is a unity of body and soul, and a unity of body and earth. When life and physical movement are made object of systematic movements, as happens in factories, the human being becomes a small part of a machine. The living work becomes cybernetic and robotic. Workers in factories that constantly repeat the same work are reduced to robots.
Technology, according to Henry, is a collection of acts and transformations based on theoretical knowledge. This is contrasted with the living world. Technč is situated in the praxis of life. However, in modern technology actions have become the object of systematic analysis and domination. The scientific way of thinking has dominated the modern technology that life has expulsed. When a laborer is turning screws all day, his labor becomes alienated from him and is only a mean that serves a specific purpose. Finally, through technology, human beings are alienated from themselves and the essence of life. This is very well represented in the film Avalon, where the technological world is portrayed as gray and lifeless.
Sacred Technology
It seems strange that a ´premodern´ worldview, where spirituality and magic play a role, can exist in a world dominated by technology, rationality and secularization. Starting in the Renaissance, the center of the universe has moved from God to the human being. Mankind has taken fate into its own hands. Therefore, it is not so strange if science and technology receive a sacred aura. Considering tragedies like Chernobyl, technology contains a dark side. Of course, this dark side of technology can clearly be the result of the dark side of mankind, especially in wars. But technology, used for peaceful purposes such as the generation of energy can become a deadly force. Heidegger and Henry have clearly underlined this negative dimension. However, the dark side of technology does not result in the loss of the religious aura. Because of the complexity and uncontrollable elements in technology, technology can represent the sacred.
The sacred (the divine, the supernatural) provokes fascination, admiration and awe, but also fear and abhorrence. In religion, the sacred has a central place. Rituals are aimed to communicate with the sacred and the supernatural. Technology provokes those two reactions. On one hand, people are fascinated by the possibilities that technology offers. The developments in aircraft and space technology and the progress in medical science cause an admiration and enthusiasm. At the same time, technology can become monstrous, as Marx already acknowledged. Technology can dominate life. Computers can become so complex that people start to scream at their PCs when they do not operate in the way they want it to.
Magic Technology
Technology is about domestication, controlling and using recourses. It is characterized by functionality and domination. Just like magic, it is about control. Magic is the unconscious of technology, the irrational enchantment. Aupers argues that magic has been perceived as primitive and irrational. It is applied in situations where knowledge is insufficient and one feels powerless and uncertain. With the influence of the development of science and technology, magic should disappear. This is not the case. Technology, especially computer technology, is mysterious. Computer programmers often see programming as a magic ritual. The creation of digital worlds provokes feelings of excitement and admiration. Programming is a magical ritual and an interaction with a mysterious reality. The majority of what happens in a computer remains unrevealed. It is a ´black box; what exactly comes out is often surprising. When I was around fourteen years old, I started programming in BASIC, a very simple computer language. I was amazed that I was able to program the computer in order to make it do what I wanted it to do. However, even more often, it reacted differently and it was not always possible to rationally explain what happened on the screen. I also experienced programming as some kind of magic, with which I tried to control a system that I did not understand.
"The Craft is nothing less than applied cybernetics. 'It is understanding how the information flow works in human beings and in the world around them, and then learning enough about that flow that you can start to move in it, and move it as well. 'Now he is trying to move that flow online. 'Without the sacred there is no differentiation in space; everything is flat and grey. If we are about to enter cyberspace, the first thing we have to do is to plant the divine in it.'"
Mark Pesce is a paganist, but a special one. He sees technology as something sacred. A fascination for technology can even result in new forms of paganism, such as technopaganism, a form of neopaganism. Neopaganists (counting three-quarter million ´believers´ in Northern America), practice forms of New Age and Wicca. They have an animistic and polytheistic perception of nature. Nature is divine and rituals are important to communicate with the divine. They strive for a new unification with the mystery of nature. It is notable that technology is being evaluated as positive. The sociologist Stef Aupers conducted research in Silicon Valley and discovered that many of the leading computer scientists where involved as much in New Age spirituality as in computer technology . One out of five neo pagans is working in this sector. They see themselves as wizards working with technology that is alive; they can create a new virtual reality. However, it is hard to see how serious they take their 'cyber-religion'. According to Lorne Dawson, the fascination for technology is one of irreverence; it is a ludic love for parody. Techno-paganists find their inspiration partly from computer games. Techno-paganists do not demand, as in traditional religions, a high degree of participation or the belief in certain dogma's. "In the realm of techno-paganism, literally nothing is sacred."
Virtual Reality
Technology and spirituality are not, per se, incompatible. The fascination for technology can create an atmosphere of sacredness, mystery and magic. It has become a mode of existence, a framework by which we live. Technology penetrated even more deeply in human existence when computers became a cultural phenomenon, argues the philosopher Michael Heim. This is more prevalent in virtual reality, a reality that is evoked by computer technology.
Heim states that the connection of the meanings of 'virtual' and 'reality' means that virtual reality is an event that is experienced as real, but, in fact, is not. Virtual reality is by no means only technical. An illusionary feeling can be evoked when one is immersed in a book or a piece of music. In cyberspace, networks of computer technology construct virtual reality. It is an interface between the human being and the computer. He states that:
"Virtual reality can, in my opinion, be understood as a specific mode of the physical being-in-the-world of the Dasein. It has a temporal and spatial structure that differs from the daily physical experience."
One of the main characteristics of virtual reality in cyberspace is the interaction with the computer in an artificial environment. The interaction can be experienced as real and the user can even be immersed in this reality. Immersion can occur when the interaction with the computer is so real that daily structures of time and space seem to disappear. This is especially the case when the virtual reality is three-dimensional. A virtual reality helmet and gloves that allow the user to use his head and body to navigate in a virtual three-dimensional world can enhance the effect. The user can navigate through a virtual world without physical limitations like the gravitation force. However, this effect can be applied as a parameter of the simulation in order to create the illusion of a real world. In Second Life, a person can walk through virtual cities like Amsterdam. Though flying is possible in Second Life, many moderators prefer to turn off this feature because it takes away the illusion of a 'real' world. Bolter and Grusin connect virtuality with transparent immediacy: the three-dimensional world is presented so smoothly that the medium itself becomes invisible. The technology for such an experience is not common for most computer users nowadays, but a futuristic version of such immediacy is the Virtual Reality helmet that Ash uses in Avalon.
Aupers states that many computer programmers and other technological specialists, who are enchanted by modern technology, see cyberspace and virtual worlds as means to free themselves from the iron cage of the body. Many of them were active in the counterculture of San Francisco in the seventies. Just like LSD, computer technology was seen as an enlargement of the conscience and the escape from an oppressing system. Returning to nature was outdated, spirituality could be found in virtual worlds! This is a Gnostic idea based on the liberation of the physical that enables one to unify with the divine spark. Aupers states that cyberspace is seen as the final realization of the Gnostic dream. The spirit can be free in a higher, spiritual dimension. This is a strong contrast to Henry's idea of the unity of body and soul, which is also a common idea in New Age spirituality. This unity does not exist in virtual worlds, because the physical limitations are taken off. The physical resistance of gravitation that the earth offers, or natural, non-intentional actions, is not necessarily present in virtual worlds. Physical functions can become artifacts that are used to navigate in a virtual world.
De Mul asks whether the construction of virtual reality should be perceived as the ultimate form of domination that characterizes modernity. According to him, this is partly the case. It is an ultimate form of the modern calculating science that Heidegger describes. The digital domain is, from the perspective of ordering, the supreme form of modern science in order to transform everything into a controllable Bestand. However, control of virtual reality is only applicable for programmers. And even they are not always able to control the software that operates virtual worlds. This is the magic that Aupers describes when programmers are able to create virtual worlds, even if they do not know exactly how everything works.
Virtual reality can be seen as liberation, but also as an escape. When people are immersed in cyberspace, the reference to the physical world disappears. The French philosopher Jean Baudrillard argues that society contains more and more simulations. A hyper reality, that only refers to itself, becomes a source of alienation. This could be truth in virtual worlds, where new fantasy worlds can be created (see the chapter on Spiritual Identification in Virtual Worlds). This negative outlook on simulations and virtual worlds is not widely shared. People involved in virtual reality and computer technology state that they are absolutely able to distinguish the virtual reality from the physical reality.
Conclusion: The everydayness of technology
In the Arthurian legend, King Arthur is, after his death, transported to the Island Avalon. This is a mysterious place, comparable to the underworld or the Elysian Fields in Greek mythology. In the film, the mystery about the world of Avalon remains. However, here Avalon is the name of a violent game where it is also the highest level one can reach. Are virtual worlds a kind of life after death? That is what the movie suggests, but it does not answer the question whether this is positive or negative.
Technology can be a source of enchantment. Clearly, technology can be frightening and it can dominate our view of the world. It can alienate us from life and nature. This is certainly the case in the world in which Ash, the main character, lives. Everything is colorless, and there does not seem to be life anywhere. Michel Henry's primary experience of nature seems to be totally absent in Ash's world. The virtual world is an escape world, but is it better? This dark side of technology does not prevent technology from receiving a sacred aura. It is both fascinating and frightening. In the virtual reality of Avalon, it is possible to win, but also to die. This is what makes it so attractive.
When technology becomes uncontrollable, a way to deal with it is using 'magic'. Magic is about controlling the uncontrollable in ways that are often seen as primitive and irrational, but it is nonetheless prevalent in computer technology. Especially computer technology has this magic aura. Cyberspace is the virtual space created in computer networks. The relationship between IT and magic lies in the mysterious properties of computer technology. The filmmaker Oshii presents the virtual world of Avalon as a magical one. Besides technological artifacts like weapons and tanks, there are ghosts and goddesses.
In the end, Ash enters the hidden level of Avalon. Suddenly, she sees bright colors in the streets, gardens and animals. Is this world a better one than the real world, or has she entered the real world? According to a 'wizard' that explained to Ash how to enter the hidden level, it was a great simulation under construction. The ambiguity resembles Baudrillard's description of simulations. The virtual world of Avalon might exist without references to another, physical world.
Technology is a part of everyday life. It is not positive, nor negative, nor neutral. Though Heidegger may be a bit gloomy about technology, which is not surprising after the Second World War, I share his view that technology is a way of revealing, a framework.
The very romantic vision of Michel Henry who sees modern technology as a source of alienation is shared by the New Age thought about the integration of life and the world. However, fascination for technology provokes fascination with the new possibilities. One of the most exciting developments is the creation of worlds based on virtual reality. The turn from nature to virtual reality brings new enchantment, magic and mystery.
What can be expected from a world apparently so different from the physical world? Is it a technological heaven or a dark underworld, a creepy place that alienates people from their natural environment? I believe that people are well aware of the framework of virtual reality. Playing in virtual worlds can become a flow, because of its transparent immediacy where the medium seems to disappear. When spirituality is concerned with a metaphysical framework, technology can be a way of revealing. Techno-paganists are people who, playfully, give a sacred meaning to technology. They are a marginal group; the majority of the users of technology will see it as a tool instead of a sacred entity.
Virtual worlds have become part of our daily life, also in the form of the Internet. They offer a framework that makes sense to the people and the world around us.

Baku. 5 July. REPORT.AZ/ "There are highly qualified people among refugees in our country and we have the opportunity to evaluate them. We will benefit from people who have common values with us and they will get rid of such the inhuman situation.
Report informs citing the Turkish media, said Turkish Priesident Recep Tayyip Erdoğan to reporters after Eid prayers while commenting on issuing of Turkish citizenship to refugees from Syria and Iraq.
Recep Tayyip Erdoğan said skilled labor of refugees would be used in the industrial regions.
According to him, 30 people were suspected of committing terrorist attack in Istanbul's Atatürk Airport: "Citizens of Dagestan, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan were among those committed the terrorist attack. Unfortunately, citizens from the North Caucasian republics were also involved. Of course, the incident was committed completely by ISIS".
Diplomatic ties between Turkey and Israel were suspended in 2010 after Israeli troops stormed the Gaza-bound Mavi Marmara aid ship in international waters, killing 10 Turkish activists.
Turkey and Russia also restored ties this week after falling out over the shooting down last November of a Russian warplane that had violated Turkish airspace at the Syrian border.
The Turkish president said Turkey was not only restoring broken off ties, but was also overcoming several crises caused by the Syria conflict and terrorism. "We are removing obstacles one-by-one," Erdoğan said about the process of normalizing ties with Russia.

"The NRA has launched a campaign against President Obama's nominee for U.S. Surgeon General, Dr. Vivek Murthy. Why?" New Yorkers Against Gun Violence (NYAGV) asks, rhetorically. "Because he believes gun violence is a public health problem." Well yes, there is that. The National Rifle Association knows that gun control advocates are trying to frame gun rights as a public health concern to open a new front in their relentless, underhanded campaign to infringe upon Americans' natural, civil and Constitutionally protected right to keep bear arms. More than that, the Doctors for Obama founder . . .
is profoundly anti-gun. Click here to peruse the Tweets we unearthed after a heads-up on Murthy's post-Newtown outrage (at gun control laws which had nothing to do with the carnage). Apparently, we underplayed his antipathy to gun rights. NYAGV:
Because Dr. Murthy supports limits on ammunitions purchases, bans on semi-automatic weapon purchases, and increased funding for research on the effects of gun violence, he's been called a "radical" by the NRA, which is going all-out to block his confirmation.
Huh. I didn't know the Surgeon General hopeful supported ammo limits and a ban on all semi-automatic weapons. Even if NYAG is making sh*t up (what are the odds?) it's clear Dr. Murthy is not going to subsume his anti-gun fervor to further his career. The offending Tweets are still on his feed, which has, admittedly, gone quiet.
Never mind. Dr. Murthy, like his supporters at NYAGV, couldn't get the backing he needed to overcome Americans' desire to defend their gun rights against insidious attacks from die-hard Obamanauts – as evidenced by the counter on the petition above. His nomination is toast.
For those of you who wish to savor the victory, or diss-miss the NRA's pull in the corridors of power, here's a priceless paragraph from Jim Barrett, Bloomberg Business Week's token gun guy:
The retreat from Murthy also provides a reminder that liberals' wishful thinking about the NRA being a "paper tiger" deserves once and for all to be rejected. In a strident letter to senators, the NRA's chief lobbyist, Chris Cox, called Murthy's positions on guns "radical" and accused him of backing a "campaign against gun ownership." In fact, Murthy favors a so-called assault weapons ban and mandatory safety training. His skepticism of civilian gun ownership is based on firsthand experience in hospital emergency rooms, where he has mopped up after bloody firearm violence. The claim that from the surgeon general's office he'd have even marginal influence on gun policy, let alone implement a "radical" curtailment of gun ownership, seems off-kilter. But no matter how extreme the NRA's stance, its wrath in pro-gun states must be taken seriously. When the group activates its local affiliates to turn out single-issue voters, they can make a difference in close races.
Incendiary stuff for a writer on Michael Bloomberg's payroll – that will surely lead to his exit from same. But most welcome.

well we've got Barack Obama playing it off Hitler's part now we're looking at adolphs doctors that did the horrible experimentation on the Jewish community the feeling this role oh my god what's next
Way to Godwin the comments section before it could even begin.
I like the use of "Godwin" as a verb. Gonna start doing that.
Was that supposed to be "anit-gun FUROR to futher his career"? Because right night it says "anti-gun further to further his career".
I think it should read "anti-gun FUHRER"…
Of course Murthy doesn't have broad backing. Aside from the fact that his only accomplishments have been creating advocacy groups against the 2nd amendment, he has very little experience. His main credential is political, not medical. If his interest was medical, he'd be working on substance abuse prevention and psychiatric services for poor overcrowded neighborhoods.
It becomes ever clearer that a professional on the make for political office and name-recognition cannot do better than to become an anti-gun-whatever, and ask the Joyce Foundation and Bloomberg for some money. "No one has heard of my medical career. Maybe I should become an anti-gun-doctor?" Sure. Go ahead. Even if you fail in your professed mission, you'll build a loyal following among the urban left. That could carry you all the way to retirement.
Let's take this one step further. I will consider him "Qualified" when Mikey Bloomberg and Shannon Watts (including her whole freaking family) makes him their personal doctor for their yearly check ups, pap smears, colon-rectal exams, etc. and then accepts whatever results he spits out.
Kinda like a certain constitutional-lawyer whose only previous job was community agitation… before being elected leader of the free world.
Yes, there is definitely a pattern that across professions.
Obama wasn't much of a con law professor, a sometimes adjunct who got that job through Jarrett.
And so on.
Like all of Obama's appointees, Murthy is, first and foremost, a political hack. His group, Doctors for Obama, which morphed conveniently into Doctors for America, had more influence on his being nominated than his non-existent medical management experience.
the guy is so UNQUALIFIED it is not funny. He has not run an ice cream stand let alone a department in a hospital. How the hell is he qualified to be the Surgeon General?? C'mon Barry – at least give us the courtesy of a nominee who, while we may disagree with about guns and the 2nd Amendment, at least garners the respect of his/her peers. This guy has been a policitical operative for you for the last 6 yrs. . . .
Given Obama's real life qualifications and experience, I'm sure this character looks aged and wise.
Because he believes gun violence is a public health problem.
More like because he promotes policy regarding "gun violence" based on the kind of reasoning and empirical support that would cost him his medical license if used as the basis for recommending medical treatments.
The attack is not "off-kilter" if the Surgeon General declares "gun violence" to be a national public health care crisis, and then uses his office to try to "do something" about it. Maybe warning stickers? More likely, funding to the CDC to do research whose sole goal is to demonstrate how dangerous more guns are, to mandate health care providers request and require information about gun ownership as a way of reducing the "epidemic" of suicide and accidental deaths of children–who could POSSSIBLY be against that?
Dr. Murthy's anti-gun stance and his support of Obama are precisely the reason he was selected for the nomination to this post–one for which he is otherwise unqualified because of his lack of relevant experience and expertise. From what I can gather, he is just another ivory tower intellectual with no real world experience beyond his medical training, and most definitively no administrative training or experience. He is most clearly a purely political choice.
SURGEON GENERAL'S WARNING: Getting shot is hazardous to your health.
I wrote to my own lame RAT senator about this guy. Maybe they do listen. Sometimes. Anyway, I'm relieved that Murthy is DOA, so to speak…..
I wrote as well. His response was, "we can't do anything about it because Harry Reid changed the rules so he'll be approved."
Unqualified? Are you talking about the President?……I mean the community organizer??
Always frame the idea of gun control as slavery and USE that word. Because that's what it is and it's roots. Only free men are armed.
Lets be honest… it should read:
Non-Incendiary Image of the Day: New Yorkers Against "Scary Guns" Supports Dr. Vivek Murthy for Surgeon General Edition
After all they are not concerned about violence. They aren't concerned about crime. They are concerned about the scary gun! OMG! Afraid of the gun and not the criminal. Typical.
The sad thing is that gun violence /is/ a public health issue.
Though as everyone reading this knows, it isn't the guns that are unhealthy, it's the people holding them who commit the acts of senseless violence. A SGOTUS who wants to focus on the actual public health issues around gun violence would be most welcomed by me.
Brilliant. Maybe you should be the Surgeon General because you get it — and you have almost as much medical experience as Murthy.
Anyway, you have my vote.
Well, except for using the old "gun violence" colloquialism …
Yes. the gun violence colloquialism is used so they can included suicide in the deaths. What they wont then except is the plain fact hat Japan, S. Korea and a couple of European countries easily have more "violence" with the muder+sucide aggregation. They then claim that somehow committing suicide by jumping off a building is somehow less violent and does not count
I second the nomination. think about it this way – you get to wear a cool uniform with lots of ribbons. very impressive for picking up chicks at the next Milfs Demand (Hot) Action meeting. . . .
According to the NRA, Murthy isn't qualified because of his stance on guns.
According to NYAGV, the only thing that qualifies Murthy is that he's anti-gun,
I suggest that Murthy isn't qualified because he's merely a political operative who has no background in public health. Murthy would make a really good community organizer, but I don't think that's an actual job.
maybe the good doctor can be the next Democratic nominee if Hillary pulls out in 2016?
Hillary isn't going anywhere, she is uniquely qualified to rule our empire.
I think the only way Hillary would not be here in 2016 is if Hugh Rodham would have pulled out in 1947.
This made me laugh stuff out my nose.
Good stuff. I'm glad Murthy is gone. Now Obama is off to nominate another thoroughly unqualified person for a high-profile position, and maybe he'll scratch out a few more anti gun / anti freedom executive orders.
Like others have said, this man is completely unqualified to become the US Surgeon General. While not a military post, the position is the equivalent of a 3-star General/Admiral. Usually, one has to have some minimal record of accomplishment to ascend to that level. This guy isn't even and Associate Professor of Medicine. He's an IT guy and a political activist. Even if he were pro-2A, he wouldn't be qualified for the position.
Then again, what would anyone expect from our 'President', a professional community organizer? Does anyone really think he's got the country's best interests in mind? Everything this charlatan of a president does is calculated to achieve his political goals. What a waste of DNA…
I've seen what they've done with other 'public health issues.' No thanks.
Reading that post makes me wonder, who is TTAG's token anti-gun writer?
"His skepticism of civilian gun ownership is based on firsthand experience in hospital emergency rooms, where he has mopped up after bloody firearm violence."
This is an asinine statement. Murthy is a hospitalist, boarded in Internal Medicine, apparently with some special interest in HIV.
For you non-medical folks, that means he works the floor of the hospital treating medical diseases in adults. He treats pneumonia, diabetes, kidney failure etc, not trauma in the ER. He would have had some exposure to the ER as a medical student, but his total "firsthand experience" is less than your average EMT and the only thing he would have been trusted to "mop up" as a modern medical student was the floors.
Full disclosure, I am a former EMT, now anesthesiologist in a small Montana hospital. I trained at a major, regional trauma center. I work with a great team of ER docs, surgeons, and nurses to resuscitate and repair people who suffer traumatic injuries of all sorts. Love the medicine docs, but they tend to stay as far away as possible from trauma.
The burn in the comment section gives me a huge smile. Is that wrong?
