How To Make A Nappy Carriage
















Jihad El-Zein near the plate

Unlike his father Hafez who was unable, or able to cross the Rubicon, Bashar al-Assad has "definitely decided" to peace with Israel, says with certainty Jihad El-Zein, great "stirrer of ideas" before the Lord and secondarily to the Lebanese.

The head of the page "Kadai" the daily An-Nahar will definitely twist the neck ( read here) to an old "wisdom" constantly leveled at them by Israeli commentators and can be summarized as follows: The Syrian regime is unable to engage in a final peace with Israel for fear of losing its legitimacy. Because, by abandoning the 'fight against Israel, the regime loses its raison d'etre.

We will not quibble over trifles Jihad, peace is not in the horizon and whether the "generation Bashar," as he likes to call it, is "radically carrier designs different from those espoused by the founding father "is in itself preposterous enough to warrant attention if only for a moment. Suffice it just to refresh the memory of him Brash Simply recalling the number of assassinations and imprisonments which this generation has been able since the offspring has replaced the father! More innovative than Bashar, you die!

But the impudence of Jihad does not stop there. The real pearl, huge, black and shiny is nestled at the end of the article: "The Iranian policy makers will not hesitate long before they stop their military project started in 2000 in southern Lebanon by Hezbollah will be covered when Syria the Golan. " It is premature to say today, we provide the catalyst for ideas transformed into a soothsayer, but he is sure its move regarding the future lointin. And n!

summarize: Syria wants peace (it is more than doubtful), Israel does not want it (for sure) and Iran has invested for 30 years to get their hands on Lebanon is ready for anything scuttle eye of Bashar (there is frankly hilarious!)

Enalapril And Naproxen





William Deresiewicz in The Chronicle gives us a long but exciting article on what the success of Facebook reveals the evolution of the concept of friendship.

And indeed, while a recent study led by Robin Dunbar demonstrates that the human brain is not capable of managing a network of more than 150 friends, it is interesting to put into perspective the success of Facebook in the light of the historical evolution of the concept of friendship.

It was a time when friendship is deserved.

In an ancient world ruled by power relations and domination, the very concept of friendship was not obvious.

Friendship was then a precious, rare, he had conquered.

time, and "brotherhood" of the French Revolution demonstrates, the friendship has become a structural element of society. A company

modern, modern social relations.

Equality, individuality, freedom of choice, free expression, all these terms that can sometimes appear as cliches, now apply to the relationship of friendship.

Welcome to a world where one can become a friend of anyone.

Suddenly, the deep sense of friendship has obviously changed. Try to find friends on FB to give a hand to move, you'll see it's not easy ...

The friend has become a fuzzy concept, market, media.

So we might expect from a friend comments, criticism or encouragement, the ideal friend became smoother and more fun without the risk of problems. Yes we are all busy, so if you have to hit more problems and friends ...

What lurks there behind the success of sites like Buddies Before, if not nostalgic quest of a bygone era, some youth? As if to find his friends - lost - a childhood worth filter of eternal youth. FB

And in all this? The famous social network whose central promise is to offer everyone the vision of your wider circle of friends.

A panoptic sort of device where the user with a single glance embraces the breadth, depth, richness of your "network of friends."

Friends who quickly degenerates into a few comments left, a kind of ersatz friend.

Behind the success of FB William Deresiewicz sees the illusion to believe that a list of friends that group, thus providing emotional closeness.

And it is this emotion that overrides the amicable relationship. I scraped some time ago a paper on the old rule that the more you communicate least one ad'amis. That still seems true.

Friendship is thus reduced to a feeling, a connection. Broadband connection, necessarily needed when the challenge is not so much converse as broadcaster feelings.

Intimacy becomes extimate is no longer addressed to individuals but to a crowd in a sort of desperate attempt to remember that one has friends. And although the crowd is more of a loner, as well analyzed David Riesman .

Since then, relations with friends are more about sharing information that of human experience.

And William Deresiewicz concluded: "We Have Given Our Hearts to machines, and now we are turning Into Machines."

Besides thinking about it, my friends, who can be counted on two hands, are not on FB.

Well now, this paper celebrates somehow the five years of this blog, that my faith will continue - or not on a pace rather random.

Music!
