believing cannot change changing human improve lives might relationships rewarding seem technology thinking
Technology is changing our lives. It cannot and will not change what is fundamental to the human condition. It will never change the way we are, or how we feel. The more technology we create, the more we seem confused, side-tracked with what we are conned into believing will improve our lives in the future. Always the future.

The part of the iceberg that sunk the Titanic, for example, was not the 10 percent above the water; it was the 90 percent below the surface that did the damage. For human beings, it is also often true that the 90 percent below the surfaceùour unconscious beliefs, attitudes and habitsùsinks our fondest hopes and dreams.

In December, what (Albertsons) meant when they said they were no longer for sale is that they are no longer actively seeking bids. That of course doesn't mean any entity is prevented from bidding.
class easy great learn needed professors studying understand work
In class work, it is easy to learn only what is needed for a grade. When doing research, I try to understand what I am studying completely. Another great thing about it is that I get to work one on one with professors in my field.
