| | Interfaith Dialogue - Saudis 1 Morocco 14 | | 2008-06-27 07:03:00 | | Writing for the BBC, Magdi Abdelhadi has an important story that shows how far ahead of the rest of the Islamic world Morocco really is. While when Saudi Arabia held its first ever conference on interfaith dialogue, Morocco was hosting its 14th festival of World Sacred Music. Here is Madgdi Abdelhadi's story courtesy of the BBCArtists from all over the world converged on its ancient city of Fez, to the east of the capital Rabat. While the Saudi gathering was made up of only Muslim clerics discussing a framework for future dialogue with Christianity and Judaism, Morocco has for years been opening its arms to musicians from all over the world.The aim of the Fez festival is to promote better understanding between cultures and faiths through exposure to some of the most sublime expressions of faith - sacred music.The difference between the Saudi and Moroccan approaches to dialogue between faiths could not have been more stark, a reminder that notions of the Muslim or the Arab world are i | | By: THE VIEW FROM FEZ | | |

| Dialogue Between Ghost And Priest by Sylvia Plath | | 2008-06-01 11:03:00 | | Dialogue Between Ghost And PriestIn the rectory garden on his evening walkPaced brisk Father Shawn. A cold day, a sodden one it wasIn black November. After a sliding rainDew stood in chill sweat on each stalk,Each thorn; spiring from wet earth, a blue hazeHung caught in dark-webbed branches like a fabulous heron.Hauled sudden from solitude,Hair prickling on his head,Father Shawn perceived a ghostShaping itself from that mist.'How now,' Father Shawn crisply addressed the ghostWavering there, gauze-edged, smelling of woodsmoke,'What manner of business are you on?From your blue pallor, I'd say you inhabited the frozen wasteOf hell, and not the fiery part. Yet to judge by that dazzled look,That noble mien, perhaps you've late quitted heaven?'In voice furred with frost,Ghost said to priest:'Neither of those countries do I frequent:Earth is my haunt.''Come, come,' Father Shawn gave an impatient shrug,'I don't ask you to spin some ridiculous fableOf gilded harps or gnawing fire: simply tellAf | | By: UNTREATABLE' S BLOG - Borderline Personality Self | | |

| | Dialogue (Part I & II) | | 2008-03-30 18:28:00 | | Mais uma música das minhas favoritas do Chicago. “Dialogue (Part I & II)” foi gravada em 1972 e, como o nome diz, é realmente um diálogo entre Peter Cetera e Terry Kath. Kath faz várias perguntas sobre a atualidade, coisas sobre guerra, fome, idéias, educação, fome, e Cetera responde sempre de forma a parecer que é um alienado e que acha que está tudo indo muito bem. No fim, Kath acaba se convencendo de que as coisas são como o outro diz e se acalma, ao que Cetera diz “se você tivesse essa minha visão, sua realidade seria totalmente deturpada”. É uma música interessante e mais um achado quase “arqueológico” de um vídeo antigo na internet. Este, especificamente, foi gravado em 1975.DIALOGUE (Part I & II) [Robert Lamm]Terry: Are you optimistic 'bout the way that things are going?Peter: No, I never ever think of it at all.Terry: Don't you ever worry when you see what's going down?Peter: Well, I try to mind my business, that is, no business at all.Terry: When it | | By: Torino Blog | | |

Jonathan Edelmann and William Bernet have made a sterling effort to bring reincarnation within the pale of scientific investigation. Their paper, in the latest JCS, is not directly concerned with the reality of reincarnation, but with the methods which could be adopted to ensure the academic credibility of future research.

Through greater understanding and appreciation of each other's faith, the Hindu becomes a better Hindu, the Muslim becomes a better Muslim, the Christian becomes a better Christian, the Jew a better Jew and the Buddhist a better Buddhist."- Mahatma Gandhi (1829 - 1948)O mankind! surely God created you of a male and a female, and made you into nations and races, that you may know each other.

| | | A Dialogue of War (in fantasy) | | 2007-10-06 09:31:00 | | This very subject was brought up by SQT in her recent post. I don't want to steal the spotlight from her very well drawn analysis, but I did feel like addressing the issue a bit myself.SQT is very right that it seems that fantasy is overridden with novels that focus on war. I can't think of a novel I have read that didn't have war as a central theme somewhere. War might not be the primary plot line in a story, but almost all fantasy seems to have it there in some capacity.Some of the issues I see with this is that fantasy writers want to place a lot of focus on the people in war that aren't ordinary, ignoring those that suffer the most. I addressed this in the comments to some extent, but I think some context here would be great.Look at the historical basis for fantasy. Generally, most fantasy is written in a semi-medieval style time period. We all can generally accept this as true. Whether or not magic, dragons, or other strange and supernatural things 'actually' exist in this fantasy setting is irrelevant to this discussion. Medieval societies were violent by nature. Machiavelli handled this idea very well in saying that a ruler could control his people by subjecting them to war. What Machiavelli proposed is that a king or prince, or even queen, would rule the masses by using the fear of war--death, destruction, and loss of livelihood--to keep them in order. This serves several purposes:It reduces the number of impoverished people, the lower class, in situations that would cause them to revolt by placing them, instead, in armies and ultimately into combat. While they may be subject to obviously unlikable conditions, the idea that they are protecting their homeland and doing something that might be considered honorable might hold their complaints at bay.It keeps those living in the impoverished situations from revolting or dissenting by making them believe that they are constantly on the verge of being destroyed by the enemy, whoever they might be. Fear generally results in undeserved loyalty, but as we can see in our current and ancient history, this is an all too common thing.It raises new generations into this cycle of oppression by war. Children raised in this situation are also even less likely than their parents to question authority. Of course, it does happen, but that has much less to do with the people themselves than the failure of the ruling class to make the idea of war more serious than the horrid policies of those in power.Machiavelli wasn't lying through his teeth when he proposed some of the ideas on The Prince. Medieval times were violent by nature. From 1,095 to 1400 C.E. (current era) there were nine crusades not including any of the Northern Crusades or the various other smaller crusades, which together with the traditional nine crusades numbers somewhere around twenty. This is only a select number of the many wars that took place in the Middle Ages. Also take into account that what is considered the Middle Ages (400 to 1400 C.E.) encompasses all of Europe. In 1100 years of history we can only imagine the number of small and major wars that took place.We have to then take into account the commonality of war in what would traditionally be fantasy fiction, which is most often set in a time much like the Middle Ages anyway. As I said, the problem isn't that fantasy writers focus so much on war, since war in some form or another would be common anyway, but that fantasy writers instead base their stories primarily around characters which are abnormal. These are the heroes, characters who possess heroic qualities--excellent swordsmanship, magic, etc.--rather than being insignificant in the sense that from the start of the book they aren't anything special. In most cases these are also the characters who have very little to actually lose. Why would this be such an issue? Because the primary reason that war is such an effective device in fiction is that it represents ultimate loss. People die in war, lands are destroyed, families are broken, etc. Without loss, what is the point of having war? It becomes a device in the story that has no reason to exist. Sure, the abnormal heroes of the story do experience loss, but do they really experience it? Does a king really feel the lost of the hundreds or thousands of men in his army? Not likely. In fact, a king might feel little at all unless someone of great importance is lost. A king may feel anger at the loss of a keep, but the king doesn't mourn this loss.But the people who live in the towns and villages do. They experience it worse than the ruling class because it is they who are being murdered and slaughtered, and it is they who are driven from their homes and experience the ultimate of losses.Then this begs the question, what would fantasy be without traditional styles of heroes? Very difficult, but better fiction. Ordinary characters can become heroes. It would be more interesting to begin with a character that is in the lower class, has no discernible amazing abilities, but becomes great through his or her own force, rather than through luck. A character doesn't have to be a captain of the guard, a general, or a king, or anything in royalty at all. A simple scribe could end up a hero. But it becomes far more effective to take war from the eyes of someone who truly experiences it. Kings didn't frequently engage in battle. They were often preoccupied with the other nuances of war. It was the lower class that saw battle more often.So, what do you think? Do you see some of the same problems in fantasy? Do you disagree? What say you? | | By: The World in the Satin Bag | | |
| | Aljunied GRC Post National Day Rally Dialogue 2007 | | 2007-09-24 12:05:53 | | 23 September 2007Grassroots leaders from Aljunied GRC gathered at Eunos CC Auditorium to attend the Post National Day Rally Dialogue.The panel included Mrs Lim Hwee Hua (Minister of State, Ministry of Finance & Ministry of Transport), Mayor Zainul Abidin Rasheed (Senior Minister of State, Ministry of Foreign Affairs & Mayor, North East District), Mr Yeo Guat Kwang, Mdm Cynthia Phua and a representative from Ministry of Manpower.The dialogue session focused on the CPF issue. I see it in a positive view in the changes that the government is implemented. This makes the CPF better able to sustain.I got to understand the CPF scheme a little bit better after this dialogue. Think it's time I should also start planning to prevent it from becoming "Cannot Provide Forever". | | By: My Encounters, My Life | | |

After 3 weeks of planning, the RC came up with a Eunos Heights Family Day event which turned out to be a hit among the residents.At 0630 hrs, we began to set up the games stations and some decorations. Soon, the music began to call for the residents.At 0830 hrs, the residents began to start playing the games. I was tasked to manage the "Wheel of Winners" game station. The game was so enticing that the moment the queue started at 0830 hrs, it never ended until after the whole function at 1300 hrs.My Father came and supported my Uncle in managing the durian stall while my Mother assisted me in mine. 2 Aunts came to attend the function too.

| | | The following is my response to a recent dialogue ... | | 2007-04-12 15:47:00 | | The following is my response to a recent dialogue I took part in called Is God Infinite or not.Here is the thing. G-d is everywhere all at once right?G-d must be inside of me and you at the same time in perfect unity would you agree?We are becoming something more than we were before. Our entire being is expanding and growing in G-d Consciousness. Isaiah 55:8 is a perfect example of this expansion. If we accept that we cannot become like G-d then our experience of separation is complete and the only ones we end up fooling are ourselves. What this verse is pointing to is the experience of separation and yet surrounding this singular sentence are the visions (verses) of what we could become as an Infinite being. Our words would return to us perfectly in terms of the experiences we see as their result were we to be in the mind of G-d and not the consciousness of separation. The following verses of Isaiah 55 illustrate this Isaiah 55:1 Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye for water | | By: Thought Into Form | | |
| | On using dialogue | | 2007-02-21 19:44:00 | | As a follow-up to my post about dialogue tags, I thought I would offer some links on how to write dialogue. What I found interesting in my research is that what characters say is important, but so is what they don't say. In addition, body language is a very important part of communication -- which lends itself well to avoiding the use of tags.When writing dialogue, remember this:Studies have shown that, in a face-to-face interaction, 58 percent of communication is through body language, 35 percent through how it was said, and a mere seven percent through the content of the message. In addition, how well do your characters listen? Do they always understand the true meaning behind what's being said? Dialogue, and the interaction that surrounds it, can be a great tool to show your character's goals and characteristics as well as a tool to help you manipulate your story.Here are some links:Holly Lisle's Dialogue WorkshopDialogue TipsSpecial Tips On Dialogue For The Romance WriterHow To | | By: The Writing Life | | |
| | Creating Shared Space - Discovery, Groundwork & Dialogue | | 2006-07-24 19:53:00 | | Charismatic communication demands a transaction between speaker and listeners, and, as with most forms of fair-trading, customer satisfaction is predicated on exchanging things of equal value. For example, in exchange for a piece of electronic equipment at your local electrical store, you hand over its alleged value in dollars. In effect, the salesman buys your money with the piece of equipment. Similar dynamics apply when you seek to buy people's commitment to your proposals or ideas. So, what currency do you need to use to purchase attention and a fair hearing from your audience? The currency comes in three denominations:1. Discovery 2. Groundwork 3. DialogueYou can choose to spend a reasonable amount of time in discovery mode. It's part of a process of learning about the people you intend to influence. It enables you to gain an insight into their personal worldviews, and the information you gather enables you to respect fully their models of the world and talk their particular dialect. Groundwork is also a key element, as it represents the preparation phase, of involving others in discussion and debate on the desirability and value of your position and ideas. It enables you to respond with feedback and engage in a mutual search for alternatives. It also provides you with the opportunity to informally test ideas on potential adversaries and modify your approach as you go along. You can test, revise, hone, and polish your message before you arrive at a final product that incorporates the key needs of your target group. There are many benefits in accommodating other people's concerns, ideas and solutions into your final strategy or proposal. Your groundwork phase can often save you from embarrassing and sometimes perilous consequences. Dialogue is the art of talking with people rather than talking at them or pretending to consult. It can occur during every stage of the communication process. Formal dialogue, as in a presentation or proposal, best occurs at the st | | By: CharismaCom | | |
