![]() In a side story, Matt has lately turned everything into a ninja battle cry. But come hell or high water, he will be cuddling with mommy. Of course, I woke up with his feet in my face. “noooooo!!” I could see in his eyes accusing me, “Do you have any idea how long I waited out there?!? How dare you!! I will get you for this you balding nerd! Just you wait!” We gave him a big hug so he started laughing, then I picked him up to go to his room. I could see he was torn, “Do I laugh too? I mean, I am so busted! What do I do? How do I spin this?” His back was up against the wall like a ninja spy or something. His eyes were like deer in the headlights. I waited another three seconds and then BLAM, I turned on the light! How long could he hold it? 18,19,20,21, creeeeeaaaaakk, step step step. 1, 2, 3, 4, nothing, it was as quiet as the night before Christmas. He had been waiting outside the door for about a half-hour.ĬLICK, the lights went out. About 20 minutes later (He was waiting the whole time), I said, “If I turn out the light, he will come in, within 30 seconds.” Katie took the bet. He is waiting until the light goes out so he can sneak in and climb in on your side. I said, (using my powers of user experience) “He knows that if he enters now, I will take him back to his room. After about 10 minutes, I said to Katie, “You know, Matthew is outside the door, but he won’t come in.” She wondered what was the hold up. All the while, I heard his breathing outside the door.

![]() And I sorta thought I’d hammer out a genius novel just like that. The Irish novelist and playwright Edna O’Brien worked in the morning, "because one is nearer to the unconscious, the source of inspiration" and she wasn’t alone: Writer Anais Nin said she did her best work in the morning Kurt Vonnegut wrote before dawn ditto for Toni Morrison. I Didn't Write A Novel, But I Did Get More Creative Related: 7 Secrets From An Early Riser 6. No wonder Starbucks President Michelle Gaas sets her alarm for 4:30, Tim Cook, CEO of Apple, rises at 3:45, and Mark Wahlberg wakes up at 4:10 every day. Sometimes I’d glance at the clock at 5:30 and already felt like I’d done a day’s worth of work. This proactive combo meant I got shit done. The best part of waking up early is that distractions are way down and willpower is way up. You Get a Lot Done if You're Done Before Everyone Elseīetween email, Twitter, Facebook, phone calls, and office interruptions, the ding is constant and productivity pays a price. My tank was full! And the calm start also better equipped me to handle whatever storms lay ahead. The guaranteed quiet time meant by the time my rugrats were out of bed, I’d already had my coffee, answered email, and had a whole lotta me time. Solitude in the morning was my secret weapon. Usual school mornings are a mad dash of eat-breakfast-get-dressed-brush-teeth mayhem that can leave me depleted. Being around people can drain me, especially first thing in the morning before I’ve had my coffee (my kids included). Related: 10 Mistakes You're Making Every Time You Go To Bed 4. There's nothing pressing to do, nowhere to be, no sense of urgency, just bonus time that brings a brighter perspective. Waking up before the birds and the sun felt like stumbling on a hidden waterfall or finding an unexpected stash of cash-a secret world where the sky is still dark and dreamy, the silence is amazing, and even the air feels calmer. Some days I just lingered in bed, others I’d sip coffee on my porch or in front of my computer. The only time I remember waking up this early on purpose was to catch a flight, and I was too groggy and preoccupied to notice or care about my surroundings. I was kinder to myself, less reactive, and in a better mood-no magic pill or purchase required! 3. Right out of the gate I felt like I’d done something positive for myself, a feeling that carried over into the rest of my day. Even with my usual 6 o'clock wakeup, the to-do list turns on as soon as I open my eyes and the rest of the day feels like I’m playing catch up. Normally if I oversleep until, say 7 a.m., I get out of bed already feeling behind, like the day has gotten away from me. Related: 10 Habits Morning People Have In Common 2. It worked ( phew!) and turned out to be the ticket to my new call time. Wake me up at 4 free#After trying and failing three more mornings, I downloaded Mathe Alarm Clock, a free app that makes you solve a math problem to silence the BEEP. Surely, this could outsmart my chronotype, the master biological clock ticking away inside my head. The next morning I set three alarms staggered two minutes apart. My first attempt was a fail: I hit snooze in a stupor, rolled over, and went back to sleep. My body clock isn’t set for pre-dawn, and I’ve been known to sleep through an alarm clock or two, so this took a bit of effort. The first order of business was waking up and getting out of bed. ![]() ![]() The Canadian Constitution underwent significant changes in 1982, but without the agreement of the government of Québec, leading to ongoing tensions to this very day. But as you know there always has been serious tension between French Canada and the rest of the country and there is to this day a strong separatist movement in Quebec that almost won a 1995 referendum (49.4%) for Québec to separate (there had been an earlier one in 1980 which also lost but much more decisively), as well as spawning a violent insurrectionist movement, the FLQ (Front de Libération du Québec), whose members were responsible for over 200 bombings and robberies (and kidnappings) from early 1960 to 1970 that resulted in several deaths, including that of a minister of the provincial government in Québec. Canada, where I live, is a better example as is Begium. Your list of peoples in the USA have not, in his words “bonded together to form a viable and successful State” and the years of President Trump have made that VERY clear. Richard, I don’t think you’ve answered Amnon’s query. Two-states, even if it were not rejected by Israel, offers to duplicate in the Palestinian state the same level of dysfunction, intolerance, and corruption found in Israel itself. One state offers hope for a truly democratic future. It would especially weaken far-right ultra-nationalist parties like Likud, whose platform clearly rejects cooperation with Palestinians. It would also set the formerly exclusivist Jewish parties (Likud, Labor, Blue and White, etc.) on a new path, because they would need to find allies among Palestinians if they wished to form governing coalitions. This too would strengthen the secular parties. Why vote when your party has no hope of entering a governing coalition, where true power is concentrated? Why vote when your MKs will be interrogated by police and either thrown in jail or lose their Knesset privileges merely because they represent your interests as Palestinians? But in a single state, Palestinians inside Israel, the West Bank and Gaza would have tremendous motivation to vote and participate. But a single state would permit the coalescence of a secular progressive alliance among Jews and Palestinians, which currently is not possible due to Jewish-Palestinian fear and mistrust.Īnother factor to consider is that normally Israeli Palestinians do not vote in the same numbers as Israeli Jews because many see politics as “fixed” against them. Of course, the secular Jewish and Palestinian parties would not automatically have common interests, since there is so much dividing them. This would in effect remove religion as an inciting force splitting the population and setting it against one another. But their numbers would not match the secular parties. The Orthodox and Islamist parties would have a great deal in common and perhaps try to form their own alliance. The combined numbers of secular Palestinians and Jews would far outweigh the religious. A single state would dilute the power of religious parties, whether they be Palestinian Islamist (Hamas, Raam) or Orthodox (United Torah, Shas, Yamina, etc.). Israel must be a secular state, but one which recognizes and respects the rights of all religions while permitting none to dominate or oppress the others. But any state that is dedicated to one people, as Israel currently is (or another) is doomed to be anti-democratic. Jews and Palestinians can have a joint homeland for two peoples. We must continually drive home to liberal Zionists that their dream of a “Jewish democratic state” is a chimera. This is a racist, anti-democratic, even anti-Semitic (since Palestinians are, like Israeli Jews, Semites) state. It privileges Jewish Israelis and offers Palestinian citizens inferior rights. I do so for one reason only: the only form of Jewish state on offer is a Judeo-supremacist apartheid state. It also shares much in common with other religious exclusivist movements like the Christian evangelicals and the white Christo-supremacist parties in power in Poland and Hungary.ĭespite (or because of) my strong Diaspora Jewish identity, I abhor defining Israel as a Jewish state.

Sometimes it falls on a generation to be great. It is man-made and it can be overcome and eradicated by the actions of human beings.

This is happening right now, and living artists are finding themselves the beleaguered Resistance fighting against an encroaching invasion of nearly invincible Art Terminators. When AI defeats the last human artist, we are doomed as a species. We are already backed in a corner with art as our last and best hope. The best indicator of whether or not AI can defeat us thinking, feeling, self-aware, caring, vulnerable and mortal biological beings is whether or not it can make better art than us. Our only hope as a species is that our consciousness, feelings, empathy, creativity and imagination can give us an edge against soulless AI, which doesn’t even know that it exists. When Elon says that “digital super intelligence ” is a “fundamental species level risk” to humankind, he means it, and he knows what he’s talking about. If AI is able to outperform humans at every mental activity, and robotics to best us at every physical task, we will have rendered ourselves a redundant and inferior species! Elon Musk’s claims about the threat of AI might seem hyperbolic at first glance, but these are the sober estimations of a man who is developing driver-less cars, and is planning on bringing an army of personal all-purpose robots to the marketplace. ![]() Mark my words, AI is far more dangerous than nukes. The danger of Ai is much greater than the danger of nuclear warheads, by a lot. “The people bowed and prayed to the neon God they made,” image by AI, from my text prompt.

His style is a flexible one that lets him attack with flurries of wide-reaching blows up close, or use artes to attack and heal from afar, letting him adapt to any situation. Unable to handle it, Dohalim's first act as lord was to abolish Dahnan slavery and establish equality between the Dahnan and Renan races.ĭohalim is a master of rod-based artes and astral artes. Whenever he saw a Dahnan slave cry or hear their screams, he would be reminded of that awful event. However, once he arrived the trauma from Lenegis proved to be more than Dohalim could bear. With the deed done, Dohalim was dubbed the Lord of Elde Menencia. Distraught, Fahria swore that she would never forgive him. In the end, Dohalim ended up killing Tarnigen. Dohalim begged Tarnigen to stop, but he would not listen. When he inevitably was forced to fight Tarnigen, the later resorted to dirty tactics to even the playing field, wanting to bring Fahria to the highest ranks in Renan society. ![]() Seven years prior to the beginning of the game, he and Tarnigen became fierce competitors for the position. However, he was required to compete for the Crown Contest. Eventually, Fahria and Tarnigen even became engaged. From then on, the only thing that mattered was the song to play. He eventually met Fahria, a commoner whose skills were unmatched, and introduced her to the circle. He and his friends Tarnigen and Avakhir were violinists who played in the middle of the Civilian Park Zone. In the beginning, Dohalim was a mere member of the high-ranking house il Qaras in Lenegis. ![]() ![]() He never reached the peak Bautista did but was a consistently solid hitter in the second half of his career. Cabrera played a total of 1887 MLB games. Still, Cabrera put up a very solid career. He also made the 2012 All-Star Game with the San Francisco Giants, but that was also the season he was suspended for performance-enhancing substances. Cabrera’s career span across 15 MLB seasons from 2005 to 2019. Cabrera was one of the Pirate outfielders in 2019, his final MLB season. Currently, it looks like Bautista will be Team Dominican Republic’s first baseman.Īnother recognizable name in the Olympics that played the Pittsburgh Pirates is Melky Cabrera. His 285 total home runs in the decade was only surpassed by Nelson Cruz, Edwin Encarnacion, Albert Pujols, and Mike Trout. He earned MVP votes in 4 separate seasons, collcted 3 Silver Sluggers, went to 6 All-Star Games, and had one of the most memorable moments in post-season history with his walk-off home run and bat flip vs the Texas Rangers in the do-or-die Game 5 of the 2015 ALDS. Through his prime of 2010 up through 2016, Bautista blasted 249 home runs while batting. We all know Bautista went on to flourish into one of MLB’s most feared power hitters of the past decade in Toronto and after moving to right field. He eventually made his way back to the Pittsburgh Pirates where he became their primary third baseman in 2006 and up until being traded to the Toronto Blue Jays in 2008. From 2000-2004, Bautista bounced around with 6 teams, including the Pirates. His battle started uphill when the Pirates drafted him in the 20th round back in 2000. Among them, Jose Bautista probably stands out as the biggest former Pirate in the Olympics this year. We’ll first start with the most notable names.
