Tao Saturdays – Verse Four
Published on Thursday, January 7, 2010 by Karl Hi everyone! Late again, but here it is. Tao Te Ching, Verse 4. The Tao is empty but inexhaustible, bottomless, the ancestor of it all. Within it, the sharp edges become smooth; the twisted knots loosen; the sun is softened by a cloud; the dust settles into place. It is hidden but always present. I do not know who gave birth to it. It seems to be the ... Read More » -

Tao Saturdays – Verse Three
Published on Tuesday, December 1, 2009 by Karl One of my favorites. I'm sorry I haven't been on the ball with this - but I've been living the tao! I hope you all find this as interesting as you have the previous posts, and I look forward to sharing with you. Please comment! Verse 3. Putting a value on status will create contentiousness. If you overvalue possessions, then people begin to steal. By not dis... Read More » -

Are We Special?
Published on Tuesday, December 1, 2009 by Karl We're tied to the idea of individuality because our consciousness is trapped in a vessel with limited means of interface. My current view is that the notion of Hive Mind will be a very important issue should we ever obtain the technology for total neural interface. Consider teleportation. If the vessel is demolecularised, sent via the internet or some other form of... Read More » -

The Identity Crisis
Published on Tuesday, December 1, 2009 by Karl Sunday is always a difficult day for me. I get very reflective, today I've chosen to share a draft I've been working on this week. Its about the nature of identity. The curious mind suffers a great imperfection. The curiosity generates the knowledge which perpetually changes the mindset of the individual, and leaves them with the constant nagging question; 'Who am ... Read More » -

Event Propagation in jQuery
Published on Monday, November 30, 2009 by Karl I've been working on an experimental version of One Panel recently. Shhh - It's a secret. Anyway, I decided to switch from Prototype to jQuery to minimize plugin conflicts that sometimes occur with the existing software. This is just a little post to hopefully save some people the time I spent on this when moving to jQuery. Now to the problem - mouseover. I was att... Read More » -

Introduction to Thought Layer
Published on Monday, November 16, 2009 by Karl Censorship, gagging, and centralized moderation, are the enemies of free thought and truth. Big statement huh? What do I mean by this? Well people should be given the right to determine what is worth reading and what isn't worth reading. What I mean by 'centralized moderation' is a person, or group of individuals that have the power to delete, edit, or block what your... Read More » -

Testing in a Distributed Product
Published on Monday, October 5, 2009 by Karl The development of One Theme has presented many 'firsts' to me. Having worked on largely corporate projects in which the code has been written to function within a particular environment, one of the largest eye openers has been building One Theme for use with not only different variations of the LAMP stack*, but also for use with differing versions of WordPress. (more... Read More » -

“The greatest human sickness is insecur...
Published on Monday, August 31, 2009 by Karl "The greatest human sickness is insecurity" - David Icke in an interview conducted by Project Camelot. This wasn't immediately obvious to me. But it really did get my head going. Regardless of what you have seen or heard of David Icke, the man speaks a lot of sense. And I personally have a great respect for him and the way he seeks to open the minds of the masses. ... Read More » -

Mind Over Matter
Published on Friday, August 28, 2009 by Karl Since my first note on Consciousness, my fascination with the subject has been relentless. Todays post addresses the link between conscious intent - that is, the will to do something - and the DNA molecule. If someone was to tell you that your will, or intent could physically alter the properties of DNA - essentially mind power, or in this case bio-psychokinesis - wou... Read More » -

Tao Saturdays – Verse Two
Published on Monday, July 13, 2009 by Karl A seriously overdue verse 2; I'm using a different translation this time because I feel it has more relevance today. Verse 2. Under heaven all can see beauty as beauty, only because there is ugliness. All can know good as good only because there is evil. Being and nonbeing produce each other. The difficult is born in the easy. Long is defined by short, th... Read More »
