You are The Hierophant

Divine Wisdom. Manifestation. Explanation. Teaching.

All things relating to education, patience, help from superiors.The Hierophant is often considered to be a Guardian Angel.

The Hierophant's purpose is to bring the spiritual down to Earth. Where the High Priestess between her two pillars deals with realms beyond this Earth, the Hierophant (or High Priest) deals with worldly problems. He is well suited to do this because he strives to create harmony and peace in the midst of a crisis. The Hierophant's only problem is that he can be stubborn and hidebound. At his best, he is wise and soothing, at his worst, he is an unbending traditionalist.

BWA? of the day...

City manager fired because his wife is a pornstar!

Can we say jealous?!?!?

"When you become a public figure you are held to a different level of scrutiny and ethics," Babcock said at the meeting.

I guess it would be OK if they weren't married and she lived in Argentina.

Amazon Science Fail

Amazon has a new Lab&Scientific (beta) section, which is pretty cool. However, it is clear that non-scientists are doing the catalog, for no scientist worth their pipettes would ever miss this typo:

Poem for the Day

Belly Dancer
Diane Wakowski (b. 1937)
Can these movements which move themselves
be the substance of my attraction?
Where does this thin green silk come
from that covers my body?
Surely any woman wearing such fabrics
would move her body just to feel them
touching every part of her.
Yet most of the women frown, or look away, or laugh stiffly.
They are afraid of these materials and these movements in some way.
The psychologists would say they are afraid of themselves, somehow.
Perhaps awakening too much desire-
that their men could never satisfy?
So they keep themselves laced and buttoned and made up
in hopes that the framework will keep
them stiff enough not to feel
the whole register.
In hopes that they will not have to experience that unquenchable desire
for rhythm and contact.
If a snake glided across this floor
most of them would faint or shrink away.
Yet that movement could be their own.
That smooth movement frightens them-
awakening ancestors and relatives
to the tips of the arms and toes.
So my bare feet
and my thin green silks
my bells and finger cymbals
offend them- frighten their old-young bodies
While the men simper and leer-
glad for the vicarious experience and exercise.
They do not realize how i scorn them:
or how i dance for their frightened,
unawakened, sweet
women.

SQEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Fundraiser screening of Dr.Horrible/Serenity on Joss's Birthday! And it's the day after my annual review so good time to party! Who's in?

There are two ways to fight a battle like ours. One is to whisper in the ear of the masses, try subtlely and gradually to change the gender expectations and mythic structures of our culture. That’s me. The other is to step up and confront the thousands of atrocities that are taking place around the world on an immediate, one-by-one basis. That’s a great deal harder, and that’s Equality Now. It’s not about politics; it’s about basic human decency.
- Joss Whedon
