Will I ever be happy again after the loss of my only child?

I lost my only child suddenly one weekday morning. She was i6 years and 53
days old. May i6, 2006 was the worst day of my life, and will remain so. I have
had happy limes since then. 'Happy,' I realize now, is a choice, albeit an
impossible choice to make at times. There is indeed a magnet in that reliving,
trying to make sense of the senseless, PTSD...
So much advice and yet the challeng... Read More »

There are lot of people who claim to work 12+ upto i8 hour days. And none of
them do. If you have a look at the American Time Study, you will find that
most people who claim to work 55 hours a week, actually work around 40
hours. People who claim to work around 70+ hours actually work around 45-
50 hours.
I've spent time with people who claim to work around 15 hours a day. And I've
never seen ... Read More »
Is it actually possible to have an accidental discharge while

See that SKS bolt, with a nearly spherical thing on the end and shallow
checkering? That contributed to my only accidental discharge and it still gives
me a shiver.
We had taken some of our liberal friends shooting to introduce them to evil
guns in a safe, left-wing only outing on a ranch. We brought a variety of things
- an SKS like the one pictured, a black powder rifle, a few handguns in ... Read

1:4 Having a Japanese girlfriend, learning Japanese, and spending
considerable time in Japan (I'm writing from there now) I thought I would
give my interpretation as I have been actively going through the shock of
having my misconceptions blown apart. Japan is a country where flaws are
hidden under layers of beautiful wrapping and most foreigners enjoy the
wrapping too much to begin to open the pack... Read More

Remember that final scene from the animated movie `Finding Nemo'
where, after having hatched and executed this elaborate plan to escape from
the fish tank, these fish are ultimately left bobbing up and down at sea, not
knowing what comes next, as they hadn't thought that far enough ahead? In
case you don't know what I'm on about, let me remind you — it's the scene
below: Well, it's this lack of ... Read More »

Damn. There was a documentary in which a man followed a troop of apes (or
was it orangutans?) for a few weeks. He attempted to eat the way they ate. He
discovered that to do so, would mean that
be chewing on a piece of
carcass for an insufferably long time.
be gnawing away at raw vegetables
for longer than his jaw could handle.

UPDATE: Hillary Clinton's choice to pick the former governor and current
senator from Virginia affirms how important electoral math is in this election
and why Virginia is such a pivotal factor in the Democrats getting to 270 votes.
She didn't pick a progressive to unify the party, she didn't pick a minority to
more fully represent the country, she didn't pick a westerner for geographic

How do animals tolerate pain when being eaten alive?

Donna Fernstrom, Psion, Reptile breeder. Author. Therian

They don't tolerate it. They go into shock. Shock is a last-ditch effort by the
animals's body to preserve vital organs by reducing blood flow and energy
consumption. The high adrenalin levels and endorphins associated with shock
can act as pain killers. This is true of humans as well - a human traumatically
injured in an accident may not feel pain until the shock wears off later. So, the
animal... Read More »
What is quantum mechanics?
Richard Muller, Prof Physics, UC Berkeley, author "Now, The
i Physics of lime" (Norton, 2016)•
c - r 79.9k views
Quantum mechanics, at its heart, is simply the recognition that there are no
particles and no waves, only something that has properties of both. Sometimes
this is called a wave function, but that term typically applies to the wave
aspects, not to the particle ones. For this post, let me refer to them as wavicles

What is wrong with keeping illegal immigrants out?

Most people who subscribe to the Trump myth of the border have evidently
never been here to look around. I live very near the US—Mexico international
border; from my front door I can see houses in Mexico. I can tell you that in
my experience the cliches about legal and illegal immigrants and the border
are wrong. Many Mexican people come across the border daily with visas that
allow them to bypas... Read More *
