Leather Lace

i once saw a face, it was so beautiful, it began to drown my soul, quicker as she stood in leather lace, and time began to unfold, I could hear the melody starting to pull, so i grasped her mystical flow, towards the heart, which began to beat, did not know her, nor knew where to start, when or how could we meet, deep started to call on deep, and in my heart and soul began for her to weep, i need an explanation, for such a moment, but as soon as i was told, i found out she was heaven sent! I can't understand the concept, emotions in a rage, but why writing tears on this last page, she may not understand and she may not care, but truly she is more than the crystal clear, morning of fog and light, truly god sent beauty to my sight, for this is the day i met grace, and yes she stood in leather lace!

Arten von Kapital

Die Stellung eines Menschen in der Gesellschaft wird nicht nur durch ökonomisches, sondern auch durch symbolisches, kulturelles, und vor allem soziales Kapital beeinflusst. So bedeutet nicht nur Geld gleich Macht, sondern auch Bildung oder gute Connections. Die unterschiedlichen Kapitalarten können miteinander korrespondieren. So kann ein Milliardär sein ökonomisches Kapital in Charity und Prestige stecken und somit symbolisches Kapital in Form eines guten Rufes in der Gesellschaft aufbauen.

Zeno of Elea

He was a pioneer of the reductio ad absurdum argument. Aristotle credited him with co-inventing the dialectic method of philosophy.

He is best remembered for his" target="_blank" class="inline-link">https://plato.stanford.edu... paradoxes. His best-known paradox suggests that movement is impossible. He asks us to imagine a runner on a track. He notes that before the runner can run the whole length, they must first run the first half, then a quarter, then an eighth, and so on.

Several potential solutions have been put forth to his paradoxes and debate continues to this day. The potential answers to his paradoxes have influenced discussions about time, space, and how we perceive reality.

Kingsclere Walk

Kingsclere has varied countryside including open downland, steep slopes, small fields, and woodland.

This walk is not for the faint-hearted. It has some steep gradients but is worth trying for the beautiful views. 

Route distance: 5 miles.

Tangerine Reflection

Exoskeletal waste
      peeled off in sickening
                        stretches of torn
       bone marrow ripping.

T
O
 S           aside as
  S           rubbish.
   E
    D

Rummage through file cabinets of
                        trials,habits,love
                      and
all the other trivial things
  we can't breath without.

Sticky soul penetrated by a
      roaming finger.
                   Lingering aftertaste.
                        Smash the case
                         and open up
                           my mind

or don't.

Who cares either way?

Pulp sculpted into a car wreck victim's
heart,beating in a soggy pile.

Terrains of orange like the
straining morning trying to invade the horizon again.

Adjust the tint knob.
Life is green.
                And always moreso on the other side
                                    of discovery.

Rubbery shrapnel.
            Apples to oranges is the equation of my existence.

Armor annihilated and discarded.
Amour,why?These flakes span our parted
                                ways
                             my melting
                                dove.

The Two Minute Rule

I started to see the negative effect a messy house/work space was having on me. I wasn’t able to get my projects done due to a bunch of clutter getting in the way. Over the past year, I have experimented with a few different rules to try and build up some healthy habits. A lot of the ones I’ve tried have helped me with an organization system to make sure I stay focused on what I need to be doing and how I should go about doing it. Some time last year I heard about the two minute rule. I have implemented this rule into my life and it has helped so much.

Polyphony

Polyphony is a characteristic of Western music.

It began when singers started improvising with parallel melodies, with emphasis on fourth (ex. C to F) and fifth (ex. C to G) intervals." target="_blank" class="inline-link">https://www.liveabout.com/... This marked the start of polyphony wherein several musical lines were combined.

As singers continued experimenting with melodies, polyphony became more elaborate and complex.

Economic Free Fall

The current pandemic has led to an economic free fall which is unparalleled in history. In the US alone, the unemployment rate plummeted at such a speed that more than 10 million have claimed unemployment insurance in a matter of three weeks.


With over 30 percent of the U.S. population expected to be unemployed by this summer, and the GDP shrinking at a faster rate that the Great Depression of the 1930s, the current situation is uncharted territory, even for the experts.

Raw Data

For an artefact to qualify as a primary source, it has to be created during the event or experience at a particular time in history and record the data from that time. Data from primary sources may be raw, biased and subjective.


Also called original sources, it is often an unreliable source of information due to distortion, selective recall, and selective omission.

The Stuff We Left Behind

Apart from the digital records of today, historians will also study physical artefacts, and one thing that they will definitely encounter is plastic, due to its rather long shelf life. 


Plastic litter will help them see what we consumed, and the various chemicals in packaged food items.

Aside from the fact that blue is calming and a fan-favorite, it may also give you an advantage next time you're going to a job interview. A study by CareerBuilder" target="_blank" class="inline-link">https://press.careerbuilde... revealed that about a quarter of hirers prefer job candidates to wear blue at their interview. Of course, there are colors" target="_blank" class="inline-link">https://www.thelist.com/26... you should avoid at interviews , too. Overall, blue is a color that makes you appear calm, put-together, and approachable, and is appropriate for just about any occasion. It's also a good choice if you find yourself appearing before a judge — while you may think blacks and dark grays are appropriate for the courtroom, these colors can appear dark and secretive. Navy gives off a serious vibe while still conveying a sense of trustworthiness.
