Thomas Hobbes

There is something I’ve been thinking about. At my board and care there is almost sixty people. We share common areas; such as Dinning, Medication, T.V., and Patio. There are lots of opportunities to interact and socialize. We do have a person here with Hepatitis C. And we also have a couple of people with Diabetes. I have been looking for an authority on this subject, because I have a developing opinion that there may be an interaction of some kind; namely Creativity. I will be reading the Philosophy of Thomas Hobbes in his Book, Leviathan. ed. JCA Gaskin. Oxford, 1998.

Since I have directly said what I will be reading for, I think it is only fair to reassure the reader that I have had a comprehensive blood test on February 4, 2008. My Hepatitis Panel was NON-REACTIVE; the Glucose was 91 in range (65-99 mg/dL). There are other details, but I just wanted to mention that I probably have not contracted any blood diseases in this past year. If you are an employee of McDonalds Corporation, I sincerely believe that this kind of blood testing is periodically necessary as part of the job. Remember that we have come a long way since 1651.

Jennifer vs. Natalie

This is the Jennifer vs. Natalie presentation. In the making of the new Library at the Seattle Main Branch site (Seattle Washington), the concept of the old library was recycled into an updated Library site now at the South Oxnard Branch Library, in Oxnard California.

Briefly, the concept of the South Branch Library is that the overlapping 3X5 Cards are positioned at right angles. I mused that a two-inch margin of width and height was remarkable as a remainder for the use of the Dewey decimal system of cataloging books. Imagine that one two inch margin is for numbers and that the perpendicular two inch margin is for letters. There is a need for this kind of Library given that it is a good idea to represent numbers and letters independently.

I imagine that since Philosophy is openly deployed in the Seattle region that their old library was somehow blamed for bringing medical knowledge outside. The old library in Seattle Washington was replaced with a new one in 2002.

The new Library took into consideration the openness of the regions weather conditions. The Seattle Main Branch Library predicates a “Copper in Cement” theme – an important building material used. To show that Copper in Cement was used as an important building material for Seattle’s Main Library, the exterior appears copper colored and transparent.

Comment: March 29, 2023; The Copper in Cement concept was developed because some people have HPV – Warts. This would be a major problem with substance for a Library and the books. The solution is Copper in Cement.

Rhinoplasty

It is hard to come to this, but I have realized that there are people who would appreciate very much my talking about the Rhinoplasty.  I got one in 1991.  I was twenty-three.  Basically since childhood I had had a deviated septum.  So, when I got punched in the nose at a concert and needed an ENT to work on my nose in 1991, I was told the septum could be corrected as well.

SBS (Shaken Baby Syndrome)

I first learned about Shaken Baby Syndrome as an adult. It did not happen to me, but it is common. Please be prepared for frustration when a baby is in your care. Have planned alternative activities to stay in control when a baby cries.

So, the context I learned was as a chemical reaction not of the baby’s will. Yes, it will grow up to have a healthy respect for the world. I just happen to feel that normal play and exercise is the best way for a child to learn about chemical reactions.

These are the coping skills

  • A 10-minute talk: Have a list of three people or places to call when parenting stress rises. Often, just 10 minutes of talking with someone who listens well can ease the stress and protect the baby.
  • The 10-foot rule: Place the baby in a safe spot and stay 10 feet away until you feel calm.
  • The 10-minute break: Focus on something else for 10 minutes after leaving the baby safely in an empty crib.

Logic of The Statement

The statement is an Idea.
If the statement is True then Yes.
If the statement is False then…
               The statement is removed or not.
               If the statement is removed, then No.
               If the statement is not removed, then…
The statement is What.
What is the Idea? The statement.

E. M. Forster’s excerpt

Chapter:  Possibilities of a Pleasant Outing

“Yes, I wonder how he has the effrontery to look me in the face, to dare to claim acquaintance with me.  He was in my London parish long ago.  The other day in Santa Croce, when he was with Miss Honeychurch, I snubbed him. Let him beware that he does not get more than a snub.”

“What?” cried Lucy, flushing.

“Exposure!” hissed Mr. Eager.

He tried to change the subject; but in scoring a dramatic point he had interested his audience more than he had intended.  Miss Bartlett was full of very natural curiosity.  Lucy, though she wished never to see the Emersons again, was not disposed to condemn them on a single word.

Comment: March 25, 2024: I donated a lot of money. I have a room with a view. It’s George P. Thompson Jr. March 12, 1952 – June 10, 2022.
