[MSVU Social Media Course Blog] The wiki provided a free space to add information, however I almost feel like the paper component would have resulted in more critical thinking (about the issues, are they portraying their platform properly? Etc, as opposed to ascetics).

The god may have symbolised the fecundity of the stag-inhabited forest.

[James Bond Wiki - Recently Updated Pages] George Lazenby - James Bond Wiki: Lazenby's appearance was a surprise to the studio audience and millions of TV viewers who were getting their first glimpse of the new 007, and instead of getting the clean-cut look of Sean Connery that they were so accustomed to, they saw someone that didn't look like Bond, with his long hair and beard. Lazenby then furthered the studio and TV audiences surprise when he told Carson that On Her Majesty's Secret Service was going to be his only Bond film, as he had decided he was quitting the role and opting out of his contract.

[View from the Right] The profound thought process of Charles Johnson; and a discussion ...: You've pointed out that Charles Johnson is regarded as a conservative because he opposes the "Islamists," but that he acts like a liberal when he drums the "racists" out of the corps. Well, here's an LGF post where Johnson goes on record against the "fundamental Christianity, creationism, hard-line anti-abortionism [and] aggressively anti-gay rights" that allegedly lost the GOP the election:

[WikiPilipinas: The Hip 'n Free Philippine Encyclopedia - New pages [en]] Judas Iscariot - WikiPilipinas: The Hip 'n Free Philippine ...: In December 2007, a New York Times article by April DeConick asserted that the National Geographic's translation is badly flawed: 'For example, in one instance the National Geographic transcription refers to Judas as a "daimon," which the society’s experts have translated as "spirit." Actually, the universally accepted word for "spirit" is "pneuma" ”” in Gnostic literature "daimon" is always taken to mean "demon."'[24] The National Geographic Society responded that 'Virtually all issues April D. DeConick raises about translation choices are addressed in footnotes in both the popular and critical editions'.[25]

[Chapati Mystery] An Alternative History: When Witzel was publicly challenged to prove this claim, he published examples of Doniger’s mistranslations and termed her translation as “UNRELIABLE and idiosyncratic”.[8][9][10] Nicholas Kazanas, a European Indologist, also criticized Doniger’s works and wrote that Doniger seems to be obsessed with only one meaning, the most sexual imaginable.[11] In the Journal of Indo-European Studies, Kazanas wrote, “[Doniger] seems to see only one function ”¦ of fertility and sexuality, copulation, defloration, castration and the like: even bhakti ”˜devotion’ is described in stark erotic terms including incest and homosexuality (1980:87-99:125-129). Surely, erotic terms could be metaphors for spiritual or mystical experiences as is evidenced in so much literature?”.[11]

I like the book a lot for he translated major parts of Divane Mesnevi and Divane Shems literally and explained why he did so without violating the rhtym trying to rhyme the line endings into Shakespearen or royal English like other authors such as Coleman Parks do...

[Feral Scholar] Feral Scholar » Blog Archive » The Prison and the Closet: Racism ...: Also, at least one quarter of all women are sexually assaulted by men who often use pornography or pornographic standards in the abuse, which can be terribly confusing and traumatising, and can teach women that’s what they are worth and for. Disproportionately women in prostitution are incest survivors, and left home to escape, only to be taken in by a caring pimp who planned all along to make money off her incest-damage, by reinforcing and coercing her to believe life on the street turning tricks is what is is meant to do.

[PostClassic] Why I Am a Postminimalist - PostClassic: Early industrial music was a direct offshoot in Manchester, England, of avant garde performance art, and it arose in 1976 with the formation by Genesis P-Orridge of the band "Throbbing Gristle." Early industrial is highly repetitive (and acknowledges a kinship with Cage and La Monte Young), and 2nd generation industrial is essentially a co-opting of some of the surface effects of the more philosophical, anti-art motivations of the first generation much in the same way Postminimalism co-opts some elements of Minimalism. There's a Disco tie-in, too, especially in the music of Laibach -- their strategy is to put on the trappings of facism as a way of fighting against facism, and they claim that their music borrows from disco because disco is the most facist of all musics.
