zebys ty luka chociaz wiedzial co to 'takiego' ;-)
)A ja sie pytam - co to za wyniki, gdzie rozgłoszone, przez kogo zlecone, przez
kogo wykonane, przez kogo )opracowane i kto je akceptował. Konkretnie. Pani
wypisuje po raz któryś tam jakieś ogólniki i dziwi się, że )nazywam ten
bełkot "jakieś tam"?
....Ani t wojemu nazewnictwu, ani poziomowi sie nie dziwie.
Mam zasade luka, ze glupocie w ogole nie nalezy sie dziwic
Wyniki to szacunki, raport zaakceptpwany przez rzad polski i ONZ
Ogloszone we w sejmie, T K, mediach, organizacjach poza- i rzadowych zwiazanych
z problematyka, w srodowisku lekarskim itp. - w formie raportu a nastepnie

)A co to jest ONZ?
Dziecko zajrzyj do encyklopedii, chociaz, albo najlepiej na strony Organizacji -
swiata przed toba nie zamierzam odkrywac, swoja droga te braki sa zapewne juz
nie do nadrobienia
Tam dowiedz sie co to ONZ i jakie ma kompetencje w tej sprawie i dlaczego in
teresuje sie przestrzeganiem praw czlowieka i skad biora sie jego
uprawnienia ))
)Jakie kompetencje ma delegat Sri Lanki, by akceptować lub nie raport z jakimiś
tam danymi z Polski, których nie jest w stanie zweryfikować?
Od kiedy to kompetencje mierzy sie narodowoscia?
Jakis LPR z ciebie 'beknal' )

)Zgadza się. Dlatego napisałem "jakieś tam". Nie mogę nazwać ich inaczej,
ponieważ Pani ich nie określiła. Dlatego słusznie streściłem Pani przekaz jako
)niezborny bełkot. Na studiach uczą na pierwszych zajęciach zadawania pytań -
kto, kiedy, gdzie i jak. DO tego jednak jeszcze Pani nie dorosła.
....
no i luka mamy podloze klopotu:
Interpretacja wlasna to nie streszczenie. Zamieszczajac wlasne 'widzi misie' i
opinie streszczasz swoj oglad w tej sprawie - tu zatem oceniles go slusznie.

Co zas do zadawania pytan - to mnie uczyli juz tego rodzice. opanowane mialam

dostales?

I to ma byc ten przyklad nawiazujacy do 'przedstawianych przeze mnie danych'?
Luka, skoro na studiach uczyli cie dopiero zadawania pytan, to kiedy i gdzie w
koncu naucza cie myslec????

nie jest zbyt wielkim wyzwaniem.

Z encyklopedii dowiem się, jakie kompetencje ma ONZ w sprawie raportu o
szacowanej liczbie nielegalnych aborcji??? Szukałem - i nie znalazłem. Jakie
więc ma kompetencje?
> Od kiedy to kompetencje mierzy sie narodowoscia?
Bardzo dobre pytanie - od kiedy? Pani powołuje się na organizację NARODÓW
zjednoczonych, więc zapewne zna odpowiedź na to pytanie. A zatem...?
> Interpretacja wlasna to nie streszczenie.
A co ja interpretowałem? Jak mogłem cokolwiek interpretować, skoro odpowiedź na
pytanie "kto zlecił" padła dopiero dzisiaj?

Zgadza się, bełkotała Pani przez dłuższy czas. Pisałem już - ja mam zawsze
rację.

O, najmocniej przepraszam, wynika z powyższego, że jest Pani uposledzona
umysłowo. Dzieci bowiem nie trzeba uczyć pytać - o ile nie są autystyczne, ale
to inna historia; dzieci zaczynają pytać same z siebie bezpośrednio po
nauczeniu się mówienia, jest to świadectwo chłonnosci i otwartości ich umysłów -
i to nawet w okresie przedprzedszkolnym.
W związku z Pani oświadczeniem, że nie jest Pani sprawna umysłowo od
najmłodszych lat - oświadczam, że przestaję z Pani żartować. Mam miękkie serce,
kalectwo mnie wzrusza.
> To ma byc przywolanie mojej wypowiedzi, luka ?
Owszem. Wspominała Pani o ONZ czy nie?

Dziwię się. To znaczy - dziwiłem. Teraz już wiem, skąd u Pani to prostactwo w
rozumowaniu. Bardzo współczuję.

Temat: Kosmiczne milczenie
Dla tych co znają angielski, poniżej kopia tego co osiągnięto w programie
SSETI. Jak by na to nie patrzeć, jest to więcej niż przyzwoicie. Oryginał na
stronie: sseti.gte.tuwien.ac.at/express/mop/index.php?uri=news.html
Tak sobie to porównuję z osiągnięciami zespołów z uczelni amerykańskich w
budowie "komercyjnych" pojazdów z napędem elektrycznym, albo z ostatnimi
zawodami organizowanymi przez Armię USA (DARPA) na bezzałogowy samochód który
sam przejedzie przez pustynię. Pomimo startu zespołów z najbardziej
renomowanych uczelni, jak również z prywatnych firm, w pierwszym roku ŻADEN
pojazd nie przejechał więcej niż kilka kilometrów. Ale już rok później (w tym
roku) - nie jeden a kilka ukończyło trasę. Nie od razu Kraków zbudowano.
The SSETI Express student microsatellite mission has been a remarkable success,
achieving its two first mission objectives and a number of important
milestones. Due to a failure in the electrical power system on board the
spacecraft is inoperable and mission control is on "standby". There is a small
but significant possibility of recovery, the likelihood of which is being
ascertained by ongoing testing. The educational goals of the project continue
to be met by the student teams who are still working hard to analyse and
understand all available data, such that the lessons learned can be applied to
future missions.
Detailed statement:
Despite the brevity of the initial mission a number of important milestones
were achieved:
1) Objective 1 is fulfilled: Reaching the launch pad after progressing through
the challenging and rigorous acceptance process is a major milestone
demonstrating the capability and applicability of the SSETI Programme itself
and all of the student teams involved.
2) Objective 2 is fulfilled: All evidence suggests that the three Cubesat
passengers were successfully deployed into orbit by SSETI Express, and were
hence able to begin their own independent missions. The Cubesats Xi-V and UWE-1
are alive and well, the status of NCube-2 has yet to be confirmed.
3) SSETI Express booted up in orbit and transmitted its first data back to
earth precisely on schedule. This data was received and decoded by the primary
groundstation and several others. This confirmed that SSETI Express survived
its journey into space and was successfully separated from the launcher.
4) The primary groundstation established reliable two-way communication with
SSETI Express. This was a remarkable achievement further demonstrating the
capability of the SSETI Programme and all the students involved.
5) A significant amount of house-keeping data was downloaded from the
spacecraft, allowing for a detailed analysis of the situation on board. This
also involved the global network of radio amateurs, who have given us
invaluable support and additional data during this mission.
The problem:
6) In order to ensure the safety of the other spacecraft on the same launch
vehicle, SSETI Express remained inactive and coasted for 65 minutes before
deploying the three Cubesat passengers.
7) During this time all the energy gathered by the solar panels was to be
dissipated within the spacecraft. Evidence strongly suggests that this
dissipation system failed by fusing on, therefore not allowing any energy to
charge the spacecraft batteries.
8) The battery charge steadily declined during the mission, causing the
spacecraft to enter safe mode after approximately 6.5 hours, and eventually
shutting it down altogether.
The outlook:
9) Careful analysis of the data received, coupled with ground-based computer
simulations and hardware tests, strongly support the proposed theory of a
specific component failure in the excess power dissipation system.
10) Ground-based hardware tests confirm the possibility of a further failure
mode of the specific component, which would allow the batteries to charge and
the spacecraft to operate once again.
11) Testing is ongoing to ascertain the specific likelihood of (10), and to
investigate other possible alternative explanations.
12) Given that the spacecraft is currently inoperable, the mission cannot
continue as planned. It is therefore on indefinite "standby", pending the
technical possibility of re-activation of the spacecraft, as in (10).
13) The team remain hopeful and vigilant. The primary groundstation and mission
control centre are being configured for autonomous monitoring of the
spacecraft, such that if it reactivates the team will be immediately alerted
and ready to resume the mission.
14) The educational goals of the mission continue to be met daily as we try to
analyse and understand the events since the launch.

The Indies of Perfumery
By RUTH LA FERLA
Published: May 25, 2004
In the world of luxury fragrances, Vita is no "Troy," an olfactory
blockbuster
lumbering onto the shelves of Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus or the vast global
network of duty-free stores. Beth Terry, its maker, would more likely compare
her confection of black currant, grapefruit and tea to an art-house product
tailored to rarefied tastes. "In my kind of business we have to have
something not everyone is going to love," Ms. Terry said. "That's the market
that I cater to."
Creative Universe, the company Ms. Terry runs, is the parent of Vita and its
sister fragrances, with evocative names like Mare and Tè. It distributes her
perfumes in only a handful of stores. Known as niche fragrances, they fall at
the opposite end of a continuum led by behemoths like Chanel No. 5, Eternity
by Calvin Klein and Pleasures by Estée Lauder. "Niche fragrances may never
have the reach of the bigger brands, the ones who can advertise and paper the
magazines with scent strips," said Rochelle Bloom, who heads the Fragrance
Foundation, an industry trade group, "but their prestige level can be very
high."
"In the world of perfumery, they are a kind of hidden little secret," said
Ms. Bloom, who defines a niche brand as one sold in only 300 or 400 stores,
compared with 3,000 or more for mainstream brands. Infused with exclusivity,
niche scents have gained an edge in an overcrowded fragrance field that is
just beginning to rebound after several years of flat sales. These days
little-known scents with mysterious, exotic-sounding names like Zabête, a
heady oriental scent from Kirna Zabête; Yuzu Rouge from 06130 (the postal
code for Grasse, France); and Ambra di Venezia increasingly compete for shelf
space with popular designer brands.
"Within our universe of fragrances, we are seeing smaller brands emerge,"
said Natalie Seidman, beauty director for the NPD Group, which tracks retail
trends. Indeed, their proliferation has stolen some thunder from more high-
profile names, Ms. Seidman said. In 1999, the top 20 brands sold in
department stores represented 40 percent of the fragrance market, according
to NPD. Today the top 20 account for only 25 percent, a market erosion also
caused by the extension of existing brands.
The niche lines are increasingly sought by department stores as an
alternative to best sellers. "Bigger stores like Saks Fifth Avenue are
dropping a lot of big-name designer fragrances because women can buy them on
the Internet without sales tax, for 30 to 40 percent less," said Allan
Mottus, editor of The Informationist, a beauty industry trade publication.
Barneys New York has similarly bypassed labels like Michael Kors and Stella
McCartney in favor of names like Serge Lutens and Susanne Lang. Ms. Lang, a
Canadian who sells exclusively at Barneys in the United States, offers
shoppers the option of blending their scents from essential oils like
coconut, lotus and vanilla. "These products are important to us," said Alana
Delacrausaz, a fragrance buyer for Barneys. "They allow us to develop a loyal
following among customers who know that they can only buy them here."
Inspired by successful predecessors like the 20-year-old Antonia's Flowers, a
freesia-based fragrance made by Antonia Bellanca in the United States, and
Musc Ravageur, a dusky scent from the French perfume specialist Frédéric
Malle, many niche scents are marketed to aficionados, shoppers who
are "always on the lookout for something different and not mainstream," said
Dana Jellinek, associate fragrance buyer for Takashimaya, a Fifth Avenue
store. Amoureuse, one of its brands, was developed for women jaded with the
profusion of single-note fragrances that have glutted the market of
late. "Very few of the mainstream brands have a true, assertive personality,"
said its maker, DelRae Roth. "American women," she added, "are starved for
really complex rich perfumes."
Some of Ms. Roth's competitors cater to an even narrower segment of the
market. Chypre, from Patyka, an organic fragrance line from Hungary, is aimed
at purists who seek out all-natural products. And the leather-based Spahnke &
Groome, a men's eau de cologne expected to make its debut this summer, courts
an affluent gay population.
Ms. Terry of Creative Universe said she seeks to market to "the
influentials," celebrities and trendsetters like Amanda Burden, the society
figure, and the actor Will Smith.
Limiting supplies has also been key to her marketing strategy. "You warehouse
1,000 bottles, not 10,000, like the larger brands do," Ms. Terry said. Ms.
Terry declined to provide sales figures for her company. Mr. Mottus estimates
that a successful niche entrepreneur generates $1 million a year.
Not an empress's ransom, exactly, but enough to fuel a perfumer's creative
vision. As Ms. Terry said, "I don't want to rule the world; I just want to
keep experimenting." Recently, balmy spring days made her think of
sangría. "Don't you love that smell? Wouldn't you like to bottle it?" Ms.
Terry asked. "I think I will," she said.

SAVEtheMALES.& ParaNO-YES & 'GUY-uh' www.intrepidsoftware.com/other/outdoors.php
"But I was inspired when I learned about British scientist James Lovelock's
Gaia Hypothesis (pronounced 'GUY-uh'), a bunch of scientific theories about the
earth's biosphere (the plant and animal world) & upper atmosphere and how they
work together to sustain our lives. The term 'Gaia' comes from the Greeks. Gaia
was the name for the goddess of the Earth and it was one of James Lovelock's
friends, Lynn Margolis, who suggested that he give this name to his theories.
But then I learned that people were turning Gaia principles into a freakin'
religion. That upset me at first because I'm not very fond of organized
religions. But then later I thought maybe Gaia principles as part of a belief
system might not be such a bad idea. We need a belief system that cares more
deeply for the earth rather than assuming it has infinite resources. We're
taxing it faster than it can renew itself. Many, like Dr. Ralph Metzner, have
speculated that new emerging mythologies (the underpinnings of how we think)
need to include a healthier appreciation for the earth. The current mythology
seems to be that science can solve all our problems, and that the pollution
created by all these solutions will also be solved by science. Philosopher Sam
Keen calls this our myth of progress, the notion that we can continue
progressing towords increasing states of bliss through technology. As much as I
like science, this just isn't adding up. It seems that we can, however,
progress out of poverty, and that is important. But beyond that the mind and
body do not seem to be designed for increased states of comfort. For example,
note the recent talk about exercise and diet.
The true way to gain much, is never to desire to gain too much. He is not rich
that possesses much, but he that covets no more; and he is not poor that enjoys
little, but he that wants too much.
Francis Beaumont (1584-1616) "

"My own approach has been to try and seize various "net kooks" and
their ideologies for myself, to take certain terms, push their
ideology to absurdity and also try to mix in some serious thought
in the mess. The "neu neu topian" movement has been flaring
sparodically in alt.cyberspace for a couple months now and though
it is in a low point (we are trying to integrate after success),
fragments of interest to this group to remain. Check Paul Wolf,
Glass, Paul Murphy, James McGowan, Earl Dombrowski and myself
for relevant articles (though not all are relevant). Also look
for threads containing "neu" and "buttons". Mythical organizations
such as the "knight templar" and "Illuminati" along with various
theories are all attempts to create pseudo idea systems which
battle across the net.
In regards to conventional "neutonians", you must divide into several
subsets. The only "classical Neutopian" appears to be Libby Hubbard
herself. If taken as a satirist (which I strongly suspect), she is
at points brilliant and she does have a capacity to press certain
"buttons". There are a number of unassociated people with an obsession
about Libby who have been given a purpose in life by her ramblinga
and finally there are the "monster truck neutopians." The quality of
these people vary, though some are educated. A few weeks back, I
attempted to engage them in a pseudo religious war with little response
and finally silence. I'm afraid alt.society.neutopia has been disrupted
by the event and a new force known as "Mother Foundress" has moved in
to fill the vacuum. We are still evaluating the results of this
experiment and the process is in a lull.
Those in this alt.memetics who are interested in acting out actual
events of idea conflict might create pseudo neutopian ideologies
or anti neutopian ideologies and move them to alt.society.neutopia.
We can then act out aspects of Minskys "society of minds". The
cross posting of such threads is quite welcome in alt.cyberspace
because a number of our readers don't get alt.society.neutopia.
The goal is satire and absurdity with a serious edge.

Temat: Co zarobicie w USA wydacie na lekarza
>Ty i tak nie dostaniesz wizy
zgadles mam US passport wiec mi odmowia
Milwaukee, Wisconsin, March 19, 2007 – The rising cost of U.S. healthcare is a
pressing concern for 85 percent of U.S. adults[1], according to a recent survey
sponsored by the American Society for Quality (ASQ) and conducted by Harris
Interactive®. In fact, healthcare costs overtake U.S. adults’ concern for other
hot button issues including the war in Iraq (79 percent), the rising cost of
fuel (80 percent) and the threat of global warming (61 percent).
These findings contrast with results of a recent New York Times/CBS Poll that
ranked Iraq as America’s top overall issue. The issue of universal healthcare
coverage wins even stronger approval in the ASQ survey which found that 79
percent of adults believe universal coverage would improve healthcare quality.
According to the ASQ survey, nearly nine in 10 (88 percent) adults think being
able to go to any doctor would also improve the quality of their healthcare over
the next five years.
“It’s clear that Americans are getting hit hard by our current healthcare crisis
and they are looking for change,” said Dr. Jim Levett, ASQ Healthcare Division
officer. “This survey shows the increasing importance for both the U.S.
administration – as well as healthcare organizations across the country – to
look for new solutions to improve the quality of healthcare while still managing
escalating costs.”
Other survey findings:
* More than one in four U.S. adults have not filled a prescription (29
percent) or have delayed a medical procedure due to expense (28 percent). Those
most likely to not fill a prescription are adults who live in the southern
United States (35 percent South, vs. 24 percent Northeast, 25 percent Midwest
and 27 percent West). The South is where health insurance coverage is the
lowest, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.
* Women are more likely than men to think universal healthcare coverage
would improve the quality of healthcare over the next 5 years (83 percent women
vs. 75 percent men). This could correlate to the finding that women (38
percent) are more likely than men (19 percent) to have failed to fill a
prescription due to expense and women (34 percent) are also more likely than men
(22 percent) to delay medical procedures due to expense.
* 68 percent of adults indicated that they thought it would improve the
quality of healthcare over the next 5 years if individuals became less dependent
on health insurance companies for the cost of their own healthcare. Men (71
percent) are more likely than women (66 percent) to indicate that they thought
lower dependency would improve healthcare quality.
* 39 percent of adults said they would be concerned/very concerned about
medical errors occurring if they were hospitalized.
* 80 percent of U.S. adults visited the doctor within the past year.
ASQ commissioned this survey in an effort to provide healthcare quality
professionals with a better understanding of the most pressing healthcare
quality and cost concerns that are affecting patients today.
About the Survey
Harris Interactive fielded the online survey within the United States on behalf
of the American Society for Quality between February 26 and February 28, 2007
among 2,758 U.S. adults 18 years of age or older. Figures for region, age
within gender, education, household income and race/ethnicity were weighted
where necessary to bring them in line with their actual proportions in the
population. The data were also weighted to be representative of the online
population of U.S. adults.
With a pure probability sample of 2,758, one could say with a 95 percent
probability that the overall results have a sampling error of +/- 3 percentage
points Sampling error for sub samples may be higher and varies. This online
survey is not based on a probability sample and therefore no theoretical
sampling error can be calculated.

Diabeł: wielki, czarny znak zapytania. Napierski Stefan Debiutuje się do samej śmierci, a i śmierć jest też debiutem. Aleksander Kumor Dla konserwatysty refleksja nad podstawami własnego światopoglądu jest rodzajem profanacji tak samo jak konieczność udowadniania egzystencji Boga jest estetycznym zgorszeniem dla każdego prawdziwie wierzącego; jest wyprowadzaniem irracjonalnej wartości na poziom racjonalny, desakralizacją boskości, której odebrany zostaje urok tajemniczości, bez której nie można pewnie stawić czoła lewicowym czcicielom diabła na ich polach bitewnych rozumu. Georg Quabbe Dlaczego tak często ludzie, dla których bardzo dużo zrobiłeś, ciężko się na ciebie obrażają? Może dlatego, że przypominasz im o ich słabościach. Kirk Douglas, Syn śmieciarza, Autobiografia Aby uwierzyć w drugiego człowieka, należy najpierw uwierzyć w siebie. Żyć w harmonii ze światem widzialnym i niewidzialnym. Odnaleźć prawdziwe oblicze Boga. . . Ale czy miłość jest w stanie uchronić przed samotnością? Nie zapominajmy, że "Bóg ukrył piekło w samym sercu raju". Paulo Coelho
