"The Best Revenge..."

noreply@blogger.com (Coyote Prime) at Running 'Cause I Can't Fly - 17 hours ago
“The best revenge is not to be like that.” - Marcus Aurelius "There is a proverb about revenge: Before setting out for a journey of revenge, dig two graves. Because revenge is so costly, because the pursuit of it often wears on the one who covets it. Marcus’s advice is easier and truer: How much better it feels to let it go, to leave the wrongdoer to their wrongdoing. And from what we know, Marcus Aurelius lived this advice. When Avidius Cassius, one of his most trusted generals rebelled and declared himself emperor, Marcus did not seek vengeance. Instead, he saw this as an opport... more »

"The majority of us lead quiet, unheralded lives as we pass through this world. There will most likely be no ticker-tape parades for us, no monuments created in our honor. But that does not lessen our possible impact, for there are scores of people waiting for someone just like us to come along; people who will appreciate our compassion, our unique talents. Someone who will live a happier life merely because we took the time to share what we had to give. Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act... more »

This Might Be the U.S. Air Force's Next Big Problem

David Axe at Test Feed Using Fields - 19 hours ago
*David Axe* *Security, * Not what you think. The U.S. Air Force still doesn't have enough maintainers, the Government Accountability Office revealed in a *February 2019 report*. The ongoing shortfall could jeopardize the flying branch's efforts to the readiness of its fighter fleet to 80 percent in order to prepare for high-intensity warfare.

The Health Ranger is right: Demonic possession is EVERYWHERE

arclein at Terra Forming Terra - 20 hours ago
Not so long ago, demonic possession was simply not a thing at all, at least for me and also i am quite sure for the majority of us. Understnading the physical realityof the spirit body and the actual architecture of the other side, it is no longer alien at all and more than that it is inevitable. Fortunately most of us are good at protecting ourselves but that still means a minority are made vulnerable. Trouble is a simple minority of one in ten still means 30,000,000 or so in North America. I still think it is much less than that and i also think most victims are ultimately a... more »

New Research Does NOT Mean A World Without Insects

Robert Walker at Science 2.0 blogs - 1 day ago
