Paranoia About Medical Topics?
2009-06-12 21:01:00 What gives with the attitude here, that medical research can't be discussed without people yelling for a doctor in the Biomech/Biomed forum? Can you really have a Biomech/Biomed forum where pharmaceuticals are excluded as topics of discussion? If so, would you also exclude such discussio
Paranoia
2009-05-30 01:14:00 The people who do not recognize an urgency for self-defense preparation like to throw around the word, without really knowing what it means: Suspicion and mistrust of people or their actions without evidence or justification. Truthfully, everyone accepts that a certain level of preparation is relevant and necessary, but people disagree on where the line is to ...

Episode 122: Paranoia
2009-02-11 15:59:00 Let me fill you in on a little something. If you want to join PrisonPlanet.tv, by all means, I suggest it. Go look at all the information there and share it with others. It's Alex Jones' site and it's a really good site with plenty of video (downloadable, no less) audio and news. On top of that you can listen to his show via the web or even your phone. I listen through my iPhone most of the time. Then again from the previous entry you probably caught that.If you're thinking about joining the discussion forum...let it go. I was there and recently bore witness to the biggest spiritual pissing contest I have ever seen in my life. Christians have non-Christians pegged as types who are disinformation agents for the New World Order and non-Christians are more frightened of the Christians than they are of those in positions of power that want them dead or enslaved.Okay, I'm of the mind that there are people in positions of power that use us like cattle and would like to see about 80% ...

Why Paranoia About Video Games Is Bunk
2008-08-06 08:00:00 There are two times when I would have expected vilification of video games: (1) When they first hit the mainstream, as did happen when I was growing up in the 1980s, and (2) whenever Jack Thompson is talking. If you’re a permanent citizen of Batty-Bonkersland, sure, hate on video games. It keeps you off the minorities. And when any young teen during the 80’s, twiddling quarters in their juvenile fingers on their way into a video arcade, would have viewed all the negative media press about video games, they would have done so with a jaundiced eye. Yeah, sure, they go through this about every entertainment medium. They used to raise a flap about novels back in the day. They’ll get over it. Yet here it is, the new millenium, and you still see daily panicky headlines about “OMG! TEH DANGERS OF VIDEO GAMES!”, with yet another self-proclaimed expert ragging on how video games are responsible for every imaginable social ill. After all this time, there do...

Paranoia Agent Review
2008-05-23 16:31:00 You know how some people need to be hit to snap them back into reality? Paranoia Agent takes it literally and uses a giddy kid with a bent gold bat to do the job. The individual stories are a wonder to behold as each story takes a dim view of humanity while maintaining a biting sense of humor. I truly enjoy this anime. The humor in this anime is wonderful. The first half of Paranoia Agent I thought is technically much better then the second half but the second half of the anime is far more creative and sardonic in its story. Each episode takes a serious situation like bullying, explores it, and then combines it with a wit I have not seen in an anime. Secondly the social message the anime is trying to deliver isn’t lost. For instance the boy who is getting bullied is running for school president. His election poster becomes vandalized. The graffiti, which is very amusing to look at, are done by the students but you hear in the background the source of their inspirations…...

Paen to parents with preschool paranoia
2008-02-20 00:48:00 If you are currently in the throes of preschool open houses, waiting lists, applications, deposits, nights spent in sleeping bags to secure a place and other angst, my prayers are with you. Seriously. Last year I was where you are now, and it was tough. Linda at Monkey Business has written some brilliant, real, compassionate posts about going through this process with her two kids this year; if you need an online comrade in this anxious time, she is your gal. And so am I. I made it through, and you will too.When my first kid left toddlerhood, gained a little sister and had his third birthday, I started to consider preschool for him in the coming fall. I read everything I could Google or obtain from the libraries (my sincere apologies to Silver Spring library patrons if you were waiting on Maria Montessori's book those three, OK, five months I had it checked out; for the fines I paid I could have bought us all our own copies.) I hounded parents in Safeway, CVS, the pediatric...
Pope Benedict : Exorcisms and paranoia
2008-02-18 21:52:00 During the medieval witch burnings, exorcists were in demand. In later periods, exorcism fell out of favor, but it was always available to those who knew how to make the right connections. Pope Benedict is now helping to give new sanction to the Catholic exorcism ritual, that in its classic form hasn't changed much over the centuries.In 1998, the Vatican published De Exorcismus et Supplicationibus Quibusdam (Concerning Exorcisms and Certain Supplications). This reflected the traditional Catholic conviction that Satan is alive and well, always looking for a way to snare new victims - a conviction shared by the present Pope.There are estimated to be as many as 300 Roman Catholic exorcists operating in Italy. Chief among them is an 82 year old cleric named Gabriele Amorth. He is reputed to have conducted some 30,000 exorcisms. Amorth is a man with no discernible personal power or even charisma, who believes that waving a cross around and muttering from the script adds up to an exorc...

The Paranoia of Secret Love
2008-02-17 22:31:00 Sometimes, I read another relationship or affair blog and I find myself fearing for the sanity of the writer. And sometimes, I will come across something that reminds me of my own past madness and I realise that I can compete with the best of them.It is quite fascinating to go through a period of derangement and then emerge from it with all memories intact. One can look back upon the sickness and recall the emotions, even if they now seem inexplicable.My own madness, of course, was my love for S.In a recent post, Lois reminded me of one particular episode.S, like all of my mistresses, lived in a different world to mine. Except in the last few months of our affair, we had no common friends or acquaintances at all. We worked for separate companies; we lived in different towns; so far as the rest of the world was concerned we were complete strangers.This is, of course, a good thing. Indeed, if you are intent on having an affair it is something I would strongly recommend.But, love is th...
Bomb Threat Check List
2008-02-12 04:09:00 Pangbourn is the executive sponsor of the Emergency Response Team. As such, he has just published the Bomb Threat Check List. Normally, Pangbourn is only paranoid that someone will try to blow him up personally. However, lately, the paranoia has expanded to the whole building. This is because he was appointed to be the executive sponsor of the ERT. They did this to put his paranoia to good use, but instead it has just compounded the problem. Prior to this appointment, Pangbourn was paranoid that someone was trying to kill him; he is now paranoid that someone is trying to kill everyone. Here's the checklist that we are supposed to keep by our phone in case someone calls with a bomb threat:Questions to ask:1. When is the bomb going to explode?2. Where is it right now?3. What does it look like?4. What kind of a bomb is it?5. What will cause it to explode?6. Did you place the bomb?7. Why?8. What is your address?9. What is your name?I'm sure the last two questions a...

The Paranoia Test
2008-02-06 11:46:00 There has been a lot of discussion about Rapport and it´s importance in Pick-up and Seduction.In regard to this subject I can only repeat once again that "the map is not the territory" and that "every behavior has a positive intention behind it". In a word: there is no final truth. If our purpose is to have sex with a woman we might very well pick-up and seduce women without bothering too much about Rapport but in my opinion what we will get then will be a lot of sex but also a lot of trouble and LSE women. In a word: the skill of being in Rapport with another human being is a sign of good psychological healthy in a woman. Again this is only a belief from my actual map of the world. I have had different maps in the past. There is a group of woman who has paranoid tendencies i.e. they have a low level of Basic Trust and it is important to detect them early on during pick-up. So one thing you can do along the sarge is the "Rapport Test". You quickly detect something which might be of...

Last Night with Blair
2008-01-31 03:22:00 Schizophrenia, from the Greek roots schizein (σχ?ζε&i-ota;ν, "to split") and phr?n, phren- (φρ?ν, φρεν-, "mind"), is a psychiatric diagnosis that describes a mental illness characterized by impairments in the perception or expression of reality, most commonly manifesting as auditory hallucinations, paranoid or bizarre delusions or disorganized speech and thinking in the context of significant social or occupational dysfunction.Psychosis is a generic psychiatric term for a mental state often described as involving a "loss of contact with reality." Stedman's Medical Dictionary defines psychosis as "a severe mental disorder, with or without organic damage, characterized by derangement of personality and loss of contact with reality and causing deterioration of normal social functioning."[1 Puddle of Mudd combines the two words "Schizophrenic psycho" in their song "Psycho"...

Common Sense and Paranoia on Campus
2008-01-11 13:37:00 From Inside Higher Ed comes the bizarre story of a young man who was expelled from Valdosta State University in Georgia for opposing the construction of two parking garages on campus. He was evidently quite the nuisance, sending out mass e-mailings, posting flyers, and penning letters to the school paper. I don't pretend to understand all the motivations behind college activism, but I can think of an injustice or two more pressing than a university's desire to spend student fees erecting a parking structure. Nevertheless, this was the cause that apparently galvanized one T. Hayden Barnes into action, and I suppose not every protest has to be about peace and freedom.This is, of course, the sort of thing that happens on every campus every now and then, but rarely matters even if it reaches the stage of a student government resolution or a faculty senate hissy fit. But Valdosta State officials didn't wait for Mr. Barnes to generate meaningful support for his initiative. Instead...

Christmas Paranoia
2007-12-18 00:06:00 I have commented before that those who conduct affairs sometimes treat one another in the cruellest of ways.I loved S and she loved me. But I was also afraid of her. And, if I am honest, I still am.You see, she did threaten more than once to tell my wife about the affair if she did not get what she wanted. You might say that this form of blackmail is the single mistress’s equivalent of a wife’s D-bomb.Experience taught me that she would not really spill the beans, or at least she would only do so as a last resort, and so I tried to put the threat out of my mind.I did resent it though. Recently, I have thought a lot more about these threats, not having confronted them properly before. I am aware that Christmas was a difficult time for her and I remain afraid of an outburst. I worry that over the holidays she may lose control of her anger and do something silly.To my mind, a threat to tell my wife is effectively a threat to destroy my marriage and is therefore a threat to the happ...

2007-11-17 03:12:00 Triplet does not believe that someone is trying to kill me because she believes I am trying to kill myself. She does, however, think I'm paranoid. She does not believe Pangbourn is paranoid, who also believes someone is trying to kill him but has not received a single anonymous death threat. I have received an anonymous death threat, but Triplet believes I sent it to myself. This morning I found a bottle of Drano on my desk. This, in my opinion, is another anonymous death threat. Instead of a written note, it's a visual message. And the message is, Watch what you eat and drink. He or she definitely plans to poison me. Or not. He or she may just be toying with me. Trying to make me go crazy with fear and paranoia about what I eat and drink. All the while plotting some other form of termination. I brought the bottle of Drano to Triplet.

Candidates - A post peppered with paranoia!
2007-11-10 22:41:00 OK I wrote this late last night and laughed about how paranoid, conspiracy theroryish it sounds. Anyway....There are posters of these two figures hanging in the study center of my language school. The language program is primarily attended by non-Danish immigrants who are required by law to learn Danish within 3 years. This is one law, among others for immigrants to abide by while waiting to acquire permanent residence after 7 years. There's also a 52.000 kr deposit (roughly $10,000), and a list of other requirements before being accepted into Danish society. The politicians above are, for the most part anti immigration. Especially the one on the right. No pun intended. That would be the ultra-right.I asked one of the school's administrator's why the more liberal candidates were not represented in the study room or anywhere in the school halls. She told me that they ordered one, but it never arrived. I say bullshit. I say they want to send us a message. A common message sent by...

Frosty Frappuccino
2007-11-07 00:44:00 They started carting in bottled Frappuccinos as a result of the Star Buck's Cam. If we could improve productivity by reducing the time it takes to go down stairs and across the street to Star Bucks by showing employees the Star Bucks line on the company Intranet, think of how much time savings we would gain by bringing Star Bucks directly to the office? I've got to admit, having a cold Frapp within a few feet of my office is a lot more convenient than leaving the building. Imagine all the people I won't run into making my way outside of the building. But I like my Frapps frosty. So I'll grab a bottle and throw it into the freezer to get it nice and freezy cold. The problem is, someone keeps stealing it. I wonder if it's the same person who's trying to kill me? And I don't mean Blair. I mean the other one. Assuming they're not one and the same, that is...

The Intern is an Idiot
2007-11-06 02:25:00 Blair hates me again, which is why I hate the intern. Now let me clarify: I like female interns; I despise any other kind. This particular intern, the one I hate, happens to be a male intern. I don't know his name, nor do I want to know his name. If I knew his name, I would still call him "intern." The simple fact is: interns are idiots. I was an intern once, and I was also an idiot once. That fact drudges up absolutely zero sympathy. But I hate this particular intern more than any other intern. I walked into his meager little cubicle, sat myself down on his desk and flashed him a forced smile. "Tell me, intern..." I said. "Did you speak to Blair this morning?" "Blair?" he repeated. "Blair from Finance." "Oh yeah. Why?" I forced another smile. "Did my name happen to come up?" The intern thought about it, long and hard, then as if the microwave dinged, he lit up and nodded. "Did she ask who had been up to see me today?" The intern nodded quicker th...

Greasy Fingernails
2007-10-30 22:24:00 Before lunch today, someone removed all but one lug nut on the rear tire of my car. Teri discovered this when she was checking my car for explosives.So it appears the anonymous death threat was not an idle threat after all. Even though the written threat was bush league at best and obviously the work of a hack. It certainly narrows the list of suspects. Can't be anyone in management, since presentation skills are a critical competency at this company for managers... I doubt a husband or a boyfriend could get to my desk with all the security in this building... Could it really be someone in my User Pool? Blair is the mostly likely suspect. Remember how pissed off she got when she thought I had sex with my wife? Imagine if she found out about someone else at work... But Blair would want to stare into my eyes and witness the light dissipate into nothingness as my soul left my body. More importantly, she'd make sure she was the last thing I saw in this life, making it clear ...

Anonymous Death Threat
2007-10-26 01:47:00 I get the feeling someone doesn't like me. I found a note on my desk today after lunch which read: "I'm going to kill you." Sure, my first inclination might be to assume this is someone's idea of a joke. But the pen strokes were literally scratched into the paper as if the person writing imagined the paper was my face. The writing style did not scream a playful tone, but rather just screamed in a very high pitch. There are several reasons this note disturbs me. Not because someone wants to kill me, because I've expected this day to come for a long time now. But mainly because the writer has absolutely no sense of creativity. If you're going to take the time to write me a note revealing your intent to kill me, at least be somewhat creative by giving me a hint as to how, when, and/or why--and maybe even who. I mean, otherwise, just kill me. Why give me the heads up if you're not going to have a little fun with it? And the paper was ...

Paranoia runs Deep
2007-10-21 15:07:00 Its a current common theme. A young student gets in trouble for writing about, speaking about or even creating a drawing with a gun.The fear of violence in schools is real and is justified, but it's gone to far, when children can't play with toy guns, can't freely discuss their or their parent's hobbies, and parents have to worry about little Johnny telling his friends how he and daddy had fun and the local range.This political correctness movement is stopping our children from expressing their feelings, thoughts, interests in firearms. This is counter-productive, leading to an unwarranted fear of everything that goes "bang", and demonizes millions of Americans who own, use and love firearms.So what is the answer?Parents, educators, gun owners, and all those interested in a balanced approach to school violence must make sure that educators don't confuse an affinity to firearms, hunting, target shooting as a logical precursor to violence.Given, educators liberal bent, this bal...
Paranoia...
2007-09-28 21:36:00 OK so with my leave coming up just right around the corner, I figured I would talk about a phenominon of paranoia that seems to go around right before people get ready to head home on leave. Its something that I always laughed about, and even though I know its wrong, slightly played on peoples fear during this time! I know, Im a horrible person, but I guess Karma is a bitch and has come to stake its claim on me.Basically heres the deal. Right before people are about to go on leave they try everything they possibly can to get out of heading outside the wire. The reason for this is due to a variation of short timers paranoia. They are worried that something might happen right before they are getting ready to head home. For this reason people tend to snake out of patrols and missions that take place in the last few days before they are to turn in their weapons and go on leave.The thing is this is not a totally unfounded idea. See there is a perfect example of this fear being man...

Paranoia Agent
2007-09-20 14:01:00 Sinopsis:En el primer episodio conoceremos a Tsukiko, una tímida dibujante, creadora de Maromi, el personaje de moda. El estudio de animación la presiona para que acabe su próxima creación, pero ella se siente bloqueada. En el clímax de su desesperación, un misterioso muchacho la ataca con un bate de béisbol dorado. Dos policías entran a investigar el asalto, pero el caso se complica cuando más y más personas caen víctimas de ataques del chico de los patines dorados, el Shounen Bat.Opinión:En los últimos tiempos, el nombre de Satoshi Kon se ha ido engrandeciendo hasta límites insospechados. Si tenemos en cuenta la filmografía del ?Lynch de Oriente? (Perfect Blue, Tokyo Godfathers, Millennium Actress) veremos que su fama es bien merecida. Para no ser menos, en Paranoia Agent (serie de tan solo 13 capítulos) Kon vuelve a hacer gala de un refinado surrealismo y de una crítica social al alcance de muy pocas obras (ya sean animación o no). Genial, para variar.Lo mejor: la profundidad de ...
