5 Interesting Perspectives and Analysis of the Indian Election 2009
2009-05-17 12:23:00 The big fight is done and the kingdom stands stable still. The elections for the 15th Lok Sabha was perhaps the most keenly contested and the most debated one ever in the short history of the Indian republic. Guess that is also more due to the fact of the growing voices online fueling talks, discussions, debates, views and even tweets. As I was scouting for more stuff read on the elections that just went by, and UPA’s big win, I found some interesting blog posts. Some provided analysis of the election, some provided a digital perspective, another foreign and some other cynical. Nevertheless, all the posts gave way to an excellent weekend reading and food for thought on what awaits the country for the next five years and beyond. Nostradamus To begin with albeit a little late, is poll scenario analysis by Quick Tale. I call the post Nostradamus like because from the 4scenarios laid out in the post, the very first assumption became the election result. Comprehensive thoughts at...

Carnival of Healing #171 - Positive Perspectives
2009-01-10 19:29:00 Welcome of this week’s carnival of healing. Carnival of Healing is a weekly round-up of personal blog posts on the topics of holistic health, wellness, spirituality, and self empowerment. You’ll see many different perspectives in this week’s carnival as Holistic Healing “addresses all parts of the individual, not just the physical aspect of a person where manifested illnesses are most apparent.

Black Males and Testosterone: Evolution and Perspectives
2008-10-09 07:40:00 Development of agriculture in modern Blacks also seems to have led to high testosterone levels. Groups with the highest testosterone in the world today are primitive agriculturalists.Hunter-gathere-rs tend to have lower testosterone. This is because in hunter-gatherer society, women need men to survive. So they just grab one pretty quickly and get married.In primitive agricultural societies, women do not need men since they can farm on their own. So they can afford to be quite choosy. These societies have tended to develop in a polygynous way where a few high-ranking males monopolize most of the females and the rest of the guys get none. It's kind of like high school except it keeps going for your whole life.Sub-Saharan Blacks are highly polygynous ,and this resulted in intense competition for fewer women and selection for very robust male body types. SS Blacks are more robust than Whites on all variables. In Namibia, the polygynous Kavango have much higher testosterone than the muc...

Southeast Asia: Perspectives on Compliance
2008-09-03 02:00:00 This past weekend, I left Southeast Asia after a week-long trip to Bangkok, Singapore and Manila. The week was spent in back-to-back meetings with customers and our local sales teams, and the majority of our discussions centered on PCI DSS and compliance in general. One clear takeaway: Compliance is one of THE growing areas of concern for businesses in the region. I found the degree to which customers in the region were concerned about compliance to be a bit of a surprise. I say 'surprise' because I often hear that compliance isn't as much of an issue outside of the U.S. From what we're seeing, though, the regulatory environment in non-U.S. geos, including Southeast Asia, is becoming more complicated...
2 perspectives from Denver: Veterans, and youth
2008-08-25 15:49:00 I've spoken with several veterans of U.S. military service in Denver, and unsurprisingly they mostly express strong support for the Democratic candidate. One outspoken Viet Nam vet was basing his support on his assessment of the lack of support for vets he percieved in Senator McCain's voting record.Generally, however, I was hearing more "Pro-Obama" sentiment expressed than I was "anti-McCain" on Sunday, as the visitors to the city took on a distinctly Democratic leaning on the eve of the opening day's events. Oliver Lawrence, for instance, is an Air Force veteran of both Korea and Viet Nam, a fifth generation descendant of slaves who has lived in Georgia all his life. Taking in the pre-convention activities, he describes feeling a very different sort of energy among the delegates when compared to previous election cycles.Oliver also spent the late 50s on duty in Wyoming, when duty sometimes meant babysitting ICBMs, as it did in his case. I chatted with him as we walked along...

De nouvelles perspectives pour l'été qui vient
2008-06-03 08:40:00 Je vous informe que d'ici quelques jours, je vous emmène en voyage... dans le cadre d'un nouveau guide! L'an dernier, je vous avais laissé quelques cartes postales de mon séjour romain, du forum aux bonnes adresses, au vert ou au musée. Quelques mois plus tard, le résultat était enfin là. Avec en bonus, un guide de survie pour les candidats au week-end romain. Cet été, je ne suis pas envoyée en Italie, mais toujours dans ce sud que j'affectionne tant. Un nouveau périple de 5 semaines, à moins de 7 heures de train de Paris. Une terre de caractère où les gourmands sont à la fête, où l'on aime chanter à l'unisson, où la rudesse dissimule une générosité véritable. S'y rencontrent la montagne et la mer, une culture et une langue enracinées dans ces paysages contrastés. Impossible d'oublier le coeur des hommes qui reviennent toujours au pays après l'exil. Une petite idée?Suite à certaines remarques désobligeantes (voire très désobligeantes, vive les blogs), j'en profite pour pré...

Perspectives on Laughter
2008-06-02 15:15:00 Have you ever noticed that when you are caught up in a stressful situation for a while, you are much more likely to pick up a cold or flu? And when everything's going well you don't get sick as often? It's been shown in medical research that both stress and laughter have effects on the immune system, one having negative effects and the other positive ones. Laughter helps to stabilize blood pressure, stimulate circulation, aid digestion, increase oxygen supply to muscles, decrease muscle tension, and leaves you with an overall sense of well-being to name just a few.

Other perspectives: severe price pullback; REOs selling
2008-03-13 18:17:00 Here is a quick tour of what some people in local real estate are writing concerning the state of the South OC and OC real estate markets. All bold in entries is our emphasis.From ocrealestateblog.com: "Real estate prices in Orange County have pulled back substantially in the past 18 months. In the City of Aliso Viejo, CA. the price per square foot in the 3rd Quarter of 2006' was $408/SqFt, and the price per square foot for detached homes now stands at $336/SqFt. "This represents a drop in values of 17.5%. This severe pull back in prices is the result of a much needed correction to the unprecedented run-up in prices from 1997 to 2006', coupled with a high rate of foreclosures caused by the easy money lending standards of the past 5 years."From Straight Digs blog: "Today, bank-owned homes are selling. As an example, in the Aliso Viejo area for homes up to $400,000 (logically, the hottest price range under the old conforming loan limits) there are 93 active homes and 33 in escro...

This week John Patricelli, sometimes known as the Big Bear Butt Blogger, offers guidance on three of the Feral Druids' key combat mechanics; Hit Rating, Expertise and Defense skill. There are three combat mechanics that have a direct bearing on the Feral Druid in PvE at level 70, and each have a functional upper limit on how much you need, before adding more becomes a waste of points. The three combat mechanics I'm talking about are Hit Rating, Expertise and Defense skill. When discussing these combat mechanics, there are three numbers I want you to remember; 142, 91 and 415. If you remember nothing else from the rest of this article, I hope that you carry these three numbers away with you. 142 is the...

Newer perspectives can be helpful.
2008-01-21 22:43:00 Perspectives on any subject can determine many various conclusions regarding the object(s) being viewed, often helping those involved more than just one expert opinion. When someone decides that they want to set a selling price or decide on what offer to make on a prospective property, are there any ways to gain good information besides a comparative market analysis or appraisal? Custom, unique, out of the way places can really be a challenge and the better the information available the better the pricing will be, I believe.

Perspectives on Criminal and Terrorist Money Laundering

Who is the enemy and what is the threat they pose? In the post 9/11 world, this is an increasingly vexing question. With that context in mind, the enemy can be characterized in two broad categories, criminals and terrorists.

Dwell Videos - Design Perspectives
2007-11-28 19:43:00 I was just approached by Dwell magazine and was asked to take a look at a series of three videos, featuring innovative design concepts, explained by the designers themselves from their personal and professional perspectives. The first video is by landscape architect, Andrea Cochran, second is an Airstream interior design by Christopher Deam, and the third shows a prefab house by prefab architect Michelle Kaufmann. To me, good design is good design, and oftentimes concepts can freely move from one discipline to another. Andrea Cochran talks about layers in her design work, the juxtaposition of warm and cool elements, warm being, perhaps, lone plantings placed nearby strong, simple lines in the hardscape. It is a lesson for interiors as well, kitchen design absolutely included. It is a philosophy which is clean, yet not cold. Layers of visual interest are designed in, after the foundation of the design is created. This is what I tell my clients about their kitchen ...

2007-10-22 23:01:00 Hi,Cate here. D has kindly allowed me to write some posts about some non-medical therapies that I've tried. By way of introduction, here's my story:I had my first panic attack when I was 22. I had the typical symptoms – racing heartbeat, chest pain and pressure, trouble breathing, lightheadedness, nausea, tingling in my hands. Because cardiovascular disease runs in my family, I thought I might be having a heart attack. I had blood tests done, which showed nothing unusual. I also had an echocardiogram done – given the family history of heart problems, and given that in women, panic attack symptoms are almost identical to heart attack symptoms, the doctor wanted to rule out that I’d not had a heart attack. The echo was normal as well.Life was stressful when I first started having panic attacks. I was just out of college and hadn’t found a job yet, my parents announced that they were separating and would probably get divorced, and that put pressure on me to want to move out. ...

The letter signed by Mathew Neuhaus, Director of Political Affairs Division, in a typically evasive manner, assured me that ?the Commonwealth welcomes such exchange of views??

Different Perspectives on World Events
2007-09-28 17:19:00 I don't know about you folks, but I have grown so tired of hearing this expert and that shill for the dis-administration talk about Iraq; that I forgot that the Iraqi people can still speak for themselves. If only we would listen. Here's a taste, follow the links for more. A statement by the National Front Dialogue(sic), Iraqi educators and Iraq oil worker unions in Basra, Baghdad and other Iraqi governorates(sic), says that the nation must rise up and confront the "greatest conspiracy of our times" being perpetrated by the American occupation in collusion with the so-called government of Nouri Al-Maliki, to steal Iraq's oil wealth with a bill that has been ratified by the government of the Green Zone and deposited with the so-called Parliament.The oil bill is to be voted upon in accordance with the plans of the White House, and would complete the task which has long been sought by Bush: The theft and outright looting of Iraq's central source of wealth (oil).
