Taste makes me delight in every flavor that exploded in me with thousands of new sensations, so I enjoy enormously every bite, every inhalation, every kiss seems to be the last one always! lol
The beauty of the broadening of sense perception during the process of awakening is unique.
I still remember my ceremonies every galactic marker, every solstice and every equinox, I was delighted when beloved elementals entered my body and activated my sensations on crazy,absurd
Taste makes me delight in every flavor that exploded in me with thousands of new sensations, so I enjoy enormously every bite, every inhalation, every kiss seems to be the last one always! lol
This took me years... I decided to enjoy every eternal moment of each sensation until little by little I understood that by amplifying my sense of touch and learning to receive and transmit sensations, psychometry was awakened,
What encourages one,makes the other sick. So each one honors himself and the Creation by obtaining that perfect combination that only makes the best

Excited we finally have a draft of this paper, which attempts to provide a 'unifying theory' of the long economic divergence between the Middle East & Western Europe
As we see it, there are 3 recent theories that hit on important aspects of the divergence...
1/
One set of theories focus on the legitimating power of Islam (Rubin, @prof_ahmetkuru, Platteau). This gave religious clerics greater power, which pulled political resources away form those encouraging economic development
But these theories leave some questions unanswered...
2/
Religious legitimacy is only effective if people
care what religious authorities dictate. Given the economic consequences, why do people remain religious, and thereby render religious legitimacy effective? Is religiosity a cause or a consequence of institutional arrangements?
3/
Another set of theories focus on the religious proscriptions of Islam, particular those associated with Islamic law (@timurkuran). These laws were appropriate for the setting they formed but had unforeseeable consequences and failed to change as economic circumstances changed
4/
There are unaddressed questions here, too
Muslim rulers must have understood that Islamic law carried proscriptions that hampered economic development. Why, then, did they continue to use Islamic institutions (like courts) that promoted inefficiencies?

Stan Lee, who died Monday at 95, was born in Manhattan and graduated from DeWitt Clinton High School in the Bronx. His pulp-fiction heroes have come to define much of popular culture in the early 21st century.
Tying Marvel’s stable of pulp-fiction heroes to a real place — New York — served a counterbalance to the sometimes gravity-challenged action and the improbability of the stories. That was just what Stan Lee wanted. https://t.co/rDosqzpP8i
The New York universe hooked readers. And the artists drew what they were familiar with, which made the Marvel universe authentic-looking, down to the water towers atop many of the buildings. https://t.co/rDosqzpP8i
The Avengers Mansion was a Beaux-Arts palace. Fans know it as 890 Fifth Avenue. The Frick Collection, which now occupies the place, uses the address of the front door: 1 East 70th Street.
