"The shoes we wear make our foot muscles lazy, weak and more prone to injury. Walking and training in FiveFingers will challenge, strengthen and protect your feet." Plus they look cool. And I suspect if you wore them with a suit, you'd look a lot like Jack Hawksmoor from The Authority - which is about as cool as it's possible for a human being to get. - Tim Mansfield

various independent scholars have also postulated that Jesus survived the crucifixion for the same reasons. Also not well known is how widespread and credible the traditions are that point to Jesus, after surviving the crucifixion, having traveled with a few others through Anatolia and thence eastward to northern India and the Kashmir region. Here these topics will be summarized and consolidated - Tim Mansfield

"There is in fact no textual basis in the Bible for the exclusion of same sex relations. People who quote Bible passages which appear to be against gay people are quoting English mistranslations of the original languages- the Bible was not written in English." ...Well yes.

"Generally, rich descriptive models and explanations of how development unfolds are produced and consumed (especially in the Integral Community) with very little attention to the metrics and methods that make them possible. We love the knowledge, accept it as true, but could care less about how it was made. That's the myth of the given in a nutshell. If we were to jettison the myth and adopt a properly post-metaphysical approach to developmental theory and practice things would be different." - Tim Mansfield

You don't have to help it, you don't have it applaud it, you don't have to fight for it. Just don't put it out. Just don't extinguish it. Because while it may at first look like that love is between two people you don't know and you don't understand and maybe you don't even want to know. It is, in fact, the ember of your love, for your fellow person just because this is the only world we have. - Tim Mansfield

For the last several years, the Army has kept a close eye on research into areas of science that might have once been called “paranormal;” its practitioners drummed out of the academy as kooks and nut-jobs. But now the idea of implanting specific memories or erasing damaging ones, for example, isn’t mere fantasy. - Tim Mansfield

Researchers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute have discovered and demonstrated a new method for overcoming two major hurdles facing solar energy. By developing a new antireflective coating that boosts the amount of sunlight captured by solar panels and allows those panels to absorb the entire solar spectrum from nearly any angle, the research team has moved academia and industry closer to realizing high-efficiency, cost-effective solar power. - Tim Mansfield

The treatment even increases the animals' running endurance. - Tim Mansfield

The country's largest parties now basically agree on economic policy and the need to reduce corruption, improve the rule of law and make government more efficient. Key democratic institutions—including a free press, impartial courts and a legislature chosen by voters—are remarkably robust, and the once all-powerful military has largely removed itself from politics. Meanwhile, regional autonomy has triggered economic booms at the periphery, in contrast to the typical Southeast Asian model. "From the U.S., the U.K. or even Hong Kong," writes Cashmore, "it is difficult to comprehend the magnitude of Indonesia's potential [or] appreciate just how much more there is to the country beyond Jakarta." - Tim Mansfield

Like email, improving meeting productivity requires more than personal tactics. Through leadership, the behavior of the group must change. This distinction is critical in our current climate. Companies need to make do with less -- and doing so cannot be done through personal productivity gains -- but with efficient and effective coordination and collaboration of teams, the organization as a whole, and how partners and customers intersect. - Tim Mansfield

Thinking about launching your own blog? Here's some friendly advice: Don't. And if you've already got one, pull the plug. Writing a weblog today isn't the bright idea it was four years ago. The blogosphere, once a freshwater oasis of folksy self-expression and clever thought, has been flooded by a tsunami of paid bilge. - Tim Mansfield
