Enciclopedias y diccionarios en el Proyecto Filosofía en español Las Enciclopedias, los Diccionarios enciclopédicos, los Diccionarios y otras obras asimilables a estos géneros, ofrecen información positiva sobre los asuntos que tratan (con más o menos errores o inexactitudes) pero además representan también una fotografía fija de la posición que mantuvo el autor del artículo, aceptada en esos años por el entorno ideológico en el que fue publicada. La persistencia en el tiempo que alcanzan este tipo de obras (para bien o para mal) obliga, sea cual sea el valor que se les atribuya, a tenerlas en cuenta, no sólo como testimonio histórico, sociológico o meramente literario, sino también para poder apreciar la influencia que puedan haber tenido. Ofrecemos una información general de cada obra considerada, la exacta y fiel versión de los artículos que interesan desde nuestra perspectiva y, en su caso, enlaces a los comentarios críticos que se han elaborado y publicado. Algunas páginas utilizan la fuente griego. © filosofia.org

Encyclopedia - Britannica Online Encyclopedia Alan Watts - Wikipedia English writer and lecturer Alan Wilson Watts (6 January 1915 – 16 November 1973) was an English writer, speaker and self-styled "philosophical entertainer",[2] known for interpreting and popularising Japanese, Chinese and Indian traditions of Buddhist, Taoist, and Hindu philosophy for a Western audience. Born in Chislehurst, England, he moved to the United States in 1938 and began Zen training in New York. He received a master's degree in theology from Seabury-Western Theological Seminary and became an Episcopal priest in 1945. He left the ministry in 1950 and moved to California, where he joined the faculty of the American Academy of Asian Studies.[3] Watts gained a following while working as a volunteer programmer at the KPFA radio station in Berkeley. After Watts's death, his lectures found posthumous popularity through regular broadcasts on public radio, especially in California and New York, and more recently on the internet, on sites and apps such as YouTube[5] and Spotify.

Model Railroad Water I remember shying away from doing model railroad water years ago because I was concerned about working with these different resins and potentially “toxic” chemicals that you had to mix together and the mixture might leak out of the place where you wanted it to be and make a mess of your whole layout, etc., etc… It wasn’t that bad, but I’m happy the technology has improved considerably since then. Those methods are still available. They work very well, there’s no reason to shy away from them, and a lot of people still use them. However, at least now you have lots of other options for model railroad water that are relatively simple to master, and you can have all the fake water you want on your model train layout, with no more difficulty than putting down ground turf or any of the other multiple things you do to develop your model train scenery. There are lots of available products out there that will help you create very realistic-appearing model railroad water, including: • Magic Water

Encyclopedia of the Nations - Information about countries of the world, United Nations, and World Leaders Fall Foliage Map 2015 & Nationwide Peak Leaf Forecast Why do leaves fall? The beauty of nature is sometimes found in the profound ‘intelligence’ it exudes. Perennials, which includes trees, must protect themselves in order to get through the harsh, freezing temperatures of winter. If trees did not shed their leaves, their soft vegetation would certainly freeze during winter time, damaging and, no doubt, killing the tree. In order to cope with the grueling winter temperatures, trees slowly close off the veins that carry water and nutrients to and from the leaves with a layer of new cells that form at the base of the leaf stem, protecting the limbs and body of the tree. What happens to the fallen leaves? Earth, among other things, is fantastic at recycling. When leaves fall to the ground, they begin to break down and eventually create a rich humus on the forest floor that absorbs dew and rainfall. Join In On The Fun!
