It would be easier and probably a lot quicker if you would just use your right hand like the rest of us.

Or for that matter any left- or right handed brain halve:
A holon (Greek: ὅλ&#959 ;ν, holon neuter form of ὅλ&#959 ;ς, holos "whole") is something that is simultaneously a whole and a part. The word was coined by Arthur Koestler in his book The Ghost in the Machine (1967, p. 48). Koestler was compelled by two observations in proposing the notion of the holon. The first observation was influenced by Nobel Prize winner Herbert A. Simon's parable of the two watchmakers, wherein Simon concludes that complex systems will evolve from simple systems much more rapidly if there are stable intermediate forms present in that evolutionary process than if they are not present.[1] The second observation was made by Koestler himself in his analysis of hierarchies and stable intermediate forms in both living organisms and social organizations. He concluded that, although it is easy to identify sub-wholes or parts, wholes and parts in an absolute sense do not exist anywhere. Koestler proposed the word holon to describe the hybrid nature of sub-wholes and parts within in vivo systems. From this perspective, holons exist simultaneously as self-contained wholes in relation to their sub-ordinate parts, and dependent parts when considered from the inverse direction.

Koestler also says holons are autonomous, self-reliant units that possess a degree of independence and handle contingencies without asking higher authorities for instructions. These holons are also simultaneously subject to control from one or more of these higher authorities. The first property ensures that holons are stable forms that are able to withstand disturbances, while the latter property signifies that they are intermediate forms, providing a context for the proper functionality for the larger whole.

Finally, Koestler defines a holarchy as a hierarchy of self-regulating holons that function first as autonomous wholes in supra-ordination to their parts, secondly as dependent parts in sub- ordination to controls on higher levels, and thirdly in coordination with their local environment.

LOL

And if you use your left hand, it feels like someone else is doing it.

Lets stick with the right hand for now.

He is already confusing us with his new self-referential protocal (He now distinguishes between his i and his I, depending upon how exterior he feels his consciousness is at the time), and I would hate to add a new personality into the mix.

HAPPY DONUT DAY!

Weird all that super-pac activity in the US.

Yogi eugenic is spinning like an electron round himself, never able to cross the empty void of infinity, since he misses the mark(ers) in his selfmade universe.

Having worked in England should at least count for something...like the queens-english.
thirteen to a dozen..common as muck.
Hrumpf...you'ld be amazed at the expressions i'm not familiar with...like edge words.
Can't get a word in edge-wise i.p.o. side-ways. Got that.
But hedging outside of hedge-funds? Spelled as edge.
Learned something there.
The concept of super-pac's is another one.
As in wondering why people did not educate themselves on the issues but formed their opinion according to some peer-group they endorsed, which can obviously keep racism going also.
Weird the normal world, not talking about AOX genes or microRNA or some such issues.
Dutch-Dietz-people
Lowlands sounds more familiar. Holland would be most correct.
HAPPY transit of venus.

Can You Pass The Israel Palestinian test? Part 23A

By Jeffrey Rudolph

Q23. Who wrote the following passage in his 2006 book?“For, regardless of party loyalties and according to most studies, the overwhelming majority of Israelis would support a peace settlement that is based on the Clinton parameters--two states, withdrawal from territories, massive dismantling of settlements, two capitals in Jerusalem—

but they trust neither their political system nor, of course, the Palestinian leadership to come to an accommodation on that basis. Which may explain the results of a poll conducted in 2002 by the Steinmetz Centre for Peace at Tel Aviv University indicating that, convinced of the incapacity of their political system to produce solutions, 67% of Israeli Jews would support an American effort to recruit an international alliance that would coax the parties into endorsing such a settlement.”

Ans. 23.

Shlomo Ben-Ami: Israel’s Minister of Public Security in 1999, Minister of Foreign Affairs from 2000-2001, and Israel’s top negotiator at Camp David and Taba negotiations.

I would hope your choice of words would be saltier than that to get kicked off. Do they actually have a moderator?

Creationism is a falsehood and so is the scientific idea of insentient matter producing sentience.

So, if you believe that insentient matter could somehow produce sentience then you're another ignoramus.

Daily Horoscope for May 24

Aquarius

In complete contrast to yesterday, you have your head screwed on firmly today. Yet you won't be boringly sensible or drearily practical, so there's no danger of you having turned into a dry old stick overnight. It's a good day for keeping track of important details and processes, such as confirming a forthcoming appointment or filling in a form and then making a copy of it before sending it off.
