The Rise of the Neuronovel → nplusonemag.com

Do writers need special institutions that recognize and treat their mental peculiarities, without granting these any special visionary status? (Such institutions are known as MFA programs.) Perhaps the writer also needs an understanding spouse who will not leave him when he creates her double, or a family that tries to accommodate his strange habits. To put all this more simply, the neuronovel tends to become a variety of meta-novel, allegorizing the novelist’s fear of his isolation and meaninglessness, and the alleged capacity of science to explain him better than he can explain himself.

It now seems we’ve gone beyond the loss of society and religion to the loss of the self, an object whose intricacies can only be described by future science. It’s not, of course, that morality, society, and selfhood no longer exist, but they are now the property of specialists writing in the idioms of their disciplines. So the new genre of the neuronovel, which looks on the face of it to expand the writ of literature, appears as another sign of the novel’s diminishing purview.

Underground City in Nevada → matsysdesign.com

Inspired by Frank Herbert’s famous 1965 novel Dune, the futuristic underground city of Sietch Nevada focuses on conserving water in an increasingly arid world.

The caverns brim with dense, urban life: an underground Venice. Cellular in form, these structures constitute a new neighborhood typology that mediates between the subterranean urban network and the surface level activities of water harvesting, energy generation, and urban agriculture and aquaculture. However, the Sietch is also a bunker-like fortress preparing for the inevitable wars over water in the region.

Some Robberies Involving Children

Using of knives in robbery attacks revived it earliest use - as a tool for hunting food and as protection to wild animals and other tribes. But in this century of technology and civilization, knives become a dangerous tool that could hurt others. Knives’ history should enlighten people and remind them that knives were made to aid in living and not to cause distress to others. Just like the custom bowie knife and the military bowie knife which have surpassed challenges and time.

The end-time has come. Hundreds of millions will die in the worst time of tribulation the world has ever known. You need to be informed so you can know how to respond.

The Prophesied End-Time will challenge readers as they consider catastrophic end-time events that are prophesied to begin very soon. Although many will not take seriously what is written here, they will gradually experience disbelief and horror at the events covered in these books as they begin to unfold.

These events will begin with more acts of terrorism, along with natural disasters, that will far exceed the devastation of 9/11. The magnitude of these events will lead to the demise of the United States and the United Kingdom, which will lead to World War III.

These things certainly are unpleasant to ponder, but the reality will prove to be many times worse. You can start to prepare yourself for what is coming. The action you take now could potentially help your loved ones survive.

Seattle fugitive picks wrong Facebook friend → komonews.com

He was making posts about how beautiful life is and how he was having a good time with his buddies. He was definitely not living the way we wanted him to be living.

I Be Areaaaaaaaaaaaauhhhhhhh.
Who you be. What you be. When you be you, I’ll be me…but I have to indulge first. Call me by My Space and my color. Say what you mean PLEASE. Because I AM TIRED. and so fucking bored… . All this non linearity is making me hungry for profundity. Poetry is the buzz word of a generation bloated from its deficiencies in Diet Coke and Sartre. What’s my name? What’s my Name? WHAT’S MY NAME? Uh. Say my name. say my name. say my name. When no one is around you, say, “Baby, I love you.” Did you hear me? I can’t believe this is happening! Where is he, Paulo? The muffins are burning! Urgency in all of these emergencies, but I didn’t do it for the right reason. I asked him for more. It’s just not fair that I’m an artist; my mother made me this way. She just doesn’t understand bright yellow ambition. Fuck it. Calvin Klein never wanted any of this. But in Sally’s world, he is God, and you know what that means: more sunscreen.

T’s are generally crabbed, ungenerous creatures. U is a soulless sort of thing. 4 is honest, but… 3 I cannot trust… 9 is dark, a gentleman, tall and graceful, but politic under his suavity…
