Challenging the Status Quo
2008-05-27 06:37:00 If you’re anything like me, you’ve probably wondered where in the Bible we find a model for the familiar “closing ritual” employed by most of the modern evangelical churches today. It goes something like this: · Extending a public altar call · ...

Revelation,Umberto Eco and The Current Status Quo
2008-04-25 02:47:00 While observing the actual political,ecological and global scenario, I ran into Umberto Eco's , On Ugliness,and found a very descriptive parallel to our ongoing state of existential sassafras. For example, Monsters and Portents- at one point Hillary was called a monster, further on,quoting Eco - Revelation is a sacred representation ( today we might even say "a disaster movie") in which we are spared no detail. Around the end of the first century of our era, on the island of Patmos, the apostle John ( or in any case the author of the text) had a vision and talked about it according to the rules of the literary genre known as "vision" ( or apokalypsis, revelation) common to Jewish culture. The author hears a voice that obliges him to write down what he will see and send it to the seven Churches of the Asiatic province.He sees seven golden candelabra and in the middle of them there is someone like a son of man, with snow-white hair and burning feet like molten bronze and a vo...

Snatch Your Democracy ; Challenge Status Quo
2008-02-15 05:00:00 Democracy is not a burden. Democracy is not an undue boring exercise. The aim of democracy should be, not to get going with whatever sham notion be enforced upon us, but to perform well in a equal oppurtunity society. Even in a pecuniary sense, it would be feasible for the rulers to pay their voters so ...

Cutting Loose from Status Quo
2008-01-10 02:14:00 Men are afraid to rock the boat in which they hope to drift safely through life's currents, when, actually, the boat is stuck on a sandbar. They would be better off to rock the boat and try to shake it loose. ~Thomas SzaszWho is not afraid of the unknowns or uncertainties in life? While most of us are consciously afraid to take risks, we do it, in fact, each waking day of our lives. In people?s vocabulary, trivial matters may not be called risks, but in real sense, they are. Whenever I drove home late from work, I say an earnest little prayer that I arrive home safely, Why? Because I always consider it too risky when you have worked your ass-off the whole day, and you are still forced to drive home. The fatigue wears off a fraction of your psychomotor and cognitive skills and that could be a potential accident. I know, I?d been there twice.You may say that is an entirely different scenario. The point here is taking risks is inevitable. Getting out of any particular status q...

Status Quo - In search of the 4th chord (2007)
2007-12-07 12:22:00 In Search of the Fourth Chord is the most recent album by English Rock band Status Quo, released September 17, 2007. It is their 28th studio album and sees the return of producer Pip Williams. It entered the UK album charts at number 15. The title is a self-effacing reference to a long standing British joke about the band's perceived ability to play only three guitar chords. The album artwork is a parody of that of the Indiana Jones films. (More @ Wikipedia)01. The Beginning Of The End (Rossi/Edwards) 4:2302. Alright (Parfitt/Morris) 4:1203.

Clash of Change and Status Quo
2007-11-27 04:50:00 We need to look through the iron curtain of emergency. In the frenzy of PCO-ed national horizon, things have become so much murky, bitter and confusing, its generating despair and a new wave of apathy.Now the danger is that as the novelty of Nawaz Sharif?s return wear off, nation would once again fall back into the mood of gloom and glum. Bureaucracy and agencies would do well to allow a free run of public will run through the free and fair elections, otherwise it would be hard even for US to save the system in Pakistan which is crumbling badly. On second thoughts, what a golden chance to get rid of this system of status quo.This system has taken its toll on the Pakistan nation now for sixty years. When we got independence from 1947, we became slavish to the over-developed civil servants, who didn?t spare a second to take control of the reigns. They haven?t shed it until now. Its them versus the forces of change.All this wadera-shahi and all this recurrent sackings of elected govern...
Mixed Relationships in Asia - a Status Quo
2007-11-19 16:32:00 Asia is a melting pot of different cultures, religions and values.

Maintaining status quo with Hillary Clinton
2007-10-11 00:27:00 Why have Wall Street, Drug companies, the defense industry, Rupert Murdoch and convicted felons like Peter Paul and Norman Hsu supported Hillary Clinton more than any other presidential candidate? Please read on for explanation and poll.The sketchy people in the photo above didn't just make big donations to Hillary's campaign, they were or are major bundler's and have held personal fund raisers for Hillary. Peter Paul was convicted for possession of 15 pounds of cocaine and fraud, years before he produced Hillary's largest gala fund raiser in 2000. Hillary and Bill managed to stiff Paul for at least $600,000 to pay for the event. Norman Hsu allegedly stole $60 million dollars and was black mailing investors into donating to Hillary's campaign and was scheduled to hold a major fund raiser with Quincy Jones in late September, 2007 before he was caught as a fugitive felon, wanted for fraud. Candidates may not be able to check every donation they get, but they certainly should...

Shun the Status Quo to See the Possibilities to Accomplish 20 Times as Much
2007-08-15 15:27:00 Organizations usually underestimate the potential value of the most important new information, technology, and ways of operating. This error occurs because the new information or resource unexpectedly makes untrue what has been undeniably true in the past. Achieving 2,000 percent solutions is a good example of this tendency. While hundreds of organizations routinely develop and implement such solutions every day, the majority of ...

Status Quo
2007-03-10 10:42:00 Change, as they always say, is inevitable. It is the only thing that's constant in this world -- so we might as well live with it. But what if the things that change are the things that we don't want to change?'Forever' is a word we often attach to the many good things in our life. Take for example those who are in good romantic relationships. Those 'fools' who are deeply in love and are convinced that they've found 'the one' can relate to this. But alas, I for one know that some things that seem to be forever are, well, not that forever after all.Sometimes changes happen for the better, sometimes for the worst. But don't you just hate it when change catches you off guard, when you realize that you were out of control? You never saw it coming, so naturally, you were never prepared. And there comes the pain attach to an unwelcome change. More often than not, it's an enormous pain at that.What sucks more is that we can never really prepare ourselves for it. It's a whole l...
Desperation setting in for NAR / Brokers status quo
2007-01-26 05:48:02 Article by Glen Roberts Jr, Inman news: The National Association of Realtors is offering sample contracts that are designed to enhance copyright protection for property information created and collected by its members. The documents include sample agreements between multiple listing services and participants, brokers and agents, and MLSs with vendors and other third parties. John Rees, a lawyer who worked with the association this year to hold workshops, gather input and produce the sample contracts, said he believes there is some urgency for industry participants to better protect copyrighted information associated with property listings, as Internet technologies can spawn a wide array of business models. “The biggest threat is probably what hasn’t been developed yet,” said Rees, a lawyer with the Callister Nebeker & McCullough law firm in Salt Lake City. “The only limit on the Internet pretty much is creativity.” There are many third parties that...
The AFL-CIO Fights for Self Preservation and the Status Quo-
2006-08-07 03:12:02 In light of the attacks to its relevancy and in preparation for the July convention and elections, the AFL-CIO issued its own statement. in April and June of 2005, the federation published ?Winning for Working Families; Recommendations from the Officers of the AFL-CIO for Uniting and Strengthening the Union Movement? (available online at www.aflcio.org). Similar to the SEIU, the federation?s plan calls for an increased focus on organizing and ?an aggressive non partisan approach to politics and legislation? (P. 5 of the plan). Also, just like the SEIU plan, the AFL-CIO calls for a stoppage of ?the Wal-Marting of good jobs by major corporations? P. 9. However, as a whole, this plan is really weak. For example, over the course of the report?s 27 pages, the AFL-CIO congratulates itself for its accomplishments over the years, yet admits that it and the union movement continue to lose ground. More specifically, on page 2 of a cover letter to...
