He describes a lifetime of fighting demons ... Special to MORE INTELLIGENT LIFE I. But the most persistent and long-standing of my voices, which began when I was eight years old, pounds on my left shoulder like a jackhammer, repeating, “I hate myself. Before my treatment, hospitalisations and incarcerations, these voices were all separate and distinct, with individual sounds, tones, rhythms and pitches. II. I immediately hated Kevin. III. Art therapy required me to sit around a table with seven other inmates and a social worker, and stare at a blank piece of paper and a torn box of broken crayons. The next day brought another art therapy session and once again I turned in a blank sheet of white paper. “John,” she began ominously, “you are failing art therapy.” I misheard her, clearly. The conversation was obviously over. So I draw.
"The egg" - Page 11 You were on your way home when you died. It was a car accident. Nothing particularly remarkable, but fatal nonetheless. And that’s when you met me. “What… what happened?” “You died,” I said, matter-of-factly. “There was a… a truck and it was skidding…” “Yup,” I said. “I… I died?” “Yup. You looked around. “More or less,” I said. “Are you god?” “Yup,” I replied. “My kids… my wife,” you said. “What about them?” “Will they be all right?” “That’s what I like to see,” I said. You looked at me with fascination. “Don’t worry,” I said. “Oh,” you said. “Neither,” I said. “Ah,” you said. “All religions are right in their own way,” I said. You followed along as we strode through the void. “Nowhere in particular,” I said. “So what’s the point, then?” “Not so!” I stopped walking and took you by the shoulders. “You’ve been in a human for the last 48 years, so you haven’t stretched out yet and felt the rest of your immense consciousness. “How many times have I been reincarnated, then?” “Oh lots. “Wait, what?”

The Top 10 Relationship Words That Arent Translatable Into English | Marriage 3.0 Here are my top ten words, compiled from online collections, to describe love, desire and relationships that have no real English translation, but that capture subtle realities that even we English speakers have felt once or twice. As I came across these words I’d have the occasional epiphany: “Oh yeah! That’s what I was feeling...” Mamihlapinatapei (Yagan, an indigenous language of Tierra del Fuego): The wordless yet meaningful look shared by two people who desire to initiate something, but are both reluctant to start. Oh yes, this is an exquisite word, compressing a thrilling and scary relationship moment. Yuanfen (Chinese): A relationship by fate or destiny. From what I glean, in common usage yuanfen means the "binding force" that links two people together in any relationship. But interestingly, “fate” isn’t the same thing as “destiny.” Cafuné (Brazilian Portuguese): The act of tenderly running your fingers through someone's hair. Ya’aburnee (Arabic): “You bury me.”

Fantastic Contraption: A fun online physics puzzle game Coming Soon: A 12-Foot-Tall Robot You Can Ride and Steer | PCWorld Here at GeekTech, we cover a lot of advanced robots, but what we really want to see is progress in the exoskeleton front (think Iron Man suit). Meet Vaudeville (sometimes called Kuratasu), a 12-foot-tall, five-ton mech that you can get inside of and control like a real Mobile Suit. Vaudeville is a creation of Suidobashi Heavy Industry, a Japanese mecha building enthusiast group made up of a Kogoro Kurata, Wataru Yoshizaki and Yuke Kitani. It might seem like you would incredible number of button, switches, and levers just to turn it on--but to the contrary it is really quite simple. As for the mech’s weapon systems, it won’t be carrying anything lethal. Suidobashi Heavy Industry expects to finish Vaudeville sometime later this year, after which the builders plan to sell it on the open mech market.
