| a8884c0 | You were still you, Troy, and you were nothing but one big Papa Bear with me." She shook her head. "No. Scratch that. You had a caveman thing going on that doesn't seem to go away when you shift. We really need to talk about this habit of yours of flinging me over your shoulder and carrying me off to your cave." | Lisa Renee Jones | ||

| 182796a | You're a beautiful woman who deserves to be properly fucked, and I conclude from your actions and your answers to my questions that you haven't been. I want to be the man to remedy that. I want it very much. | lisa renee jones | ||

| 3f6da0d | all the ways I want her affected. I lean in and press my cheek to hers, brushing my lips over her delicate skin, inhaling that sweet scent of her even as I nuzzle her neck. "I want you in a bad way, woman. I brought you here. That's more control than you realize it is." I pull back to look at her. "Don't move your hands. Do what I say. It's all about pleasure. It's all about the moment." I don't force her to respond. I lean in and brush my .. | Lisa Renee Jones | ||

| d811327 | No I have not," Nelson bites out, irritation in his voice. "She's devastated by all of this." "And so she ran off to Vermont and left you to be devastated alone," Elsa rebuttals. "Such love." | Lisa Renee Jones | ||

"Even those we fall down," she says softly, almost to herself. She flicks me a look. "I think falling down is better than not climbing." | Lisa Renee Jones | ||
| f2dfaae | Quanti visir e ricconi ci sono al mondo, che possano esporre la loro gioia o i loro affanni, il loro diletto o il loro passatempo in un posto come questo? Pochi, molto pochi. E quanti di noi, nel corso dei secoli e di generazione in generazione, se ne sono stati seduti qui in attesa dell'aurora o della preghiera serale oppure durante le ore notturne, quando, con un moto impercettibile, tutta la volta stellata si sposta al di sopra delle nos.. | Ivo Andrić | ||

| 639afd2 | The vibrations of an addict are of a very specific sort--they ricochet, out of control, mostly out of reach. The energy called up by the drug quickly disperses, leaving a void, a nothingness. Nature abhors a vacuum, so negative forces rush in, take up residence. The only immediate relief is more narcotics. It must be horrific. "Come in, come in. I'm Senator Jonathan Huffman. You're welcome here," said a man in his late sixties, with a boomi.. | Juliet Blackwell | ||
| 3d7ad5d | Loren Hale: father of a cute-as-hell little boy, discipliner (but not in a shitty, Jonathan Hale way), and husband to an adorable, pinchable blanket-lump. | Krista Ritchie | ||

| b84ec32 | Quanta of force fields can even overlap each other and yet maintain their separate identities. Each field quantum lives and dies a life and death of its own. For example, a quantum of the EM field can be emitted from an atom in the sun, travel through millions of miles of space, spreading out as it goes, and then interact as a single unit with an atom in your eye. | Rodney A. Brooks | ||
| 2b492ae | The Private Life of the Brain (New York: John Wiley, 2000); John McCrone's Going Inside: A Tour Round a Single Moment of Consciousness (London: Faber and Faber, 1999) is a more easygoing, detailed exploration. David Hubel's Eye, Brain and Vision (San Francisco: Scientific American Library, 1988) is a fine vision of what seeing entails, presented by the scientist who did much to reveal | David Bodanis | ||
| f6c8daa | NOTHING CAN GO FASTER THAN LIGHT Of course the idea that there is an ultimate speed of light is very high by earthly standards, the magnitude is not the point; any kind of speed limit in nature doesn't make sense. Suppose, for example, that a spaceship is traveling at almost the speed of light. Why can't you fire the engine again and make it go faster-or if necessary, build another ship with a more powerful engine? Or if a proton is whirlin.. | Rodney A. Brooks | ||

| 071d673 | So if you want, you can believe that gravitational effects are due to a curvature of space-time (even if you can't picture it). Or, like Weinberg, Wilczek (and me), you can view gravity as a force field that, like the other force fields in QFT, exists in three-dimensional space and evolves in time according to the field equations. | Rodney A. Brooks | ||
| edea571 | In QFT, the various fields, even the matter field, appear separately, each with its own equation and its own behavior. They are not combined into a single field as Einstein hoped, but they are related - members of the same family, so to speak. This theory, so little known or appreciated by the public, is the true fulfillment of Einstein's desire for a world made of fields and only fields. | Rodney A. Brooks | ||
| 8680f97 | The way that fields propagate and the speed at which they propagate are determined by the field equations. | Rodney A. Brooks | ||
| 53c0d6e | The Higgs mechanism was actually suggested earlier by Schwinger, in the same paper where he introduced the V and A equation. Like the V-A discovery, this contribution by Schwinger is also largely forgotten. | Rodney A. Brooks |
