media stations, gaoled the leader of the country’s second largest
political party as well as banning 11 opposition parties and the largest
Orthodox Church in the Ukraine, as well as threatening anyone belonging...

COMPARING PERSONAL EXPERIENCES OF TWO ENGLISH CULTURES
22 December 2022
A subject that fascinates me is how the way we think, and how we get motivated, changes over time and from culture to culture.You and I are different. I am different from my grandfather.But how to we think? What makes us tick? Why are we different?The West is still the dominant world culture, I would say. It's been this way for three hundred years now. Why is this? Why do western people seem to have so much vitality? Is...

KEBAB OR SHAWARMA?
22 December 2022Shawarma and kebab are both meat (usually lamb) dishes - -shawarma from the Middle East which is from Lebanon to Iran; -
kebab is Turkish because the Ottomans invented the vertical rotisserie เครื่องคั่วแบบหมุนแนวตั้งขนาดเล็ก, but the meat can be barbecued on a simple skewer เสียบ or wooden stick. Then the chef stops the spit ย่างน้ำลาย and slices off the meat.Preparation is important. I think shawarma meat is...

Looking for a Job in Another Country

AND EUROPE WILL RISE AGAIN
5 December 2022
US priorities should be 1) China 2) Middle East 3) Europe.

WHAT IS BEHIND THE GREAT RESET
4 December 2022If we think about things long enough, we do eventually get to understand what is going on.For this subject, it helps to have the WEF goals - see The Great Reset, that paper published in Jan 2020 - in mind. They focus on revolutionary change in the energy industries (to overcome climate change that would destroy the planet), and in the digital industries (because innovation and productivity can assure continued prosperity...
