A Complicated Kindness

reflect or react about a book that has a mutated green apple—assuming it is mutated, as its insides are that of an orange—for its cover? Ultimately, I judge books (literally books, not people) by its cover. The cover of Freakonomics looks quite complicated to me no matter how simple it looked, and led me to the conclusion that the book probably is not my cup of tea (as if I like tea and books in the first place). However, I have to admit that it made me curious about the mutated green apple,…

Mrs. Hale regrets not having visited Mrs. Wright when she was in such a state, and both the women go to folding her clothes, fussing over her preserves, and ready to pack a quilt that Mrs. Wright had been working on along with…

of copper wire transmit electric signals through the exchanger to each processing unit, which can be easily beaten by the sophisticated chemical reaction between each nerve cell in nanoseconds. Considering the error and interruption during the complicated calculation, it is hopeless to see that the physical computing mechanism can transcend the chemical or biological computing mechanism. It indicates that in order to build a powerful computing machine, the physical structure--such as…

Yaeko “Yae” Yamamoto Niijima is not very well known. She is not known here in the western world and she is known barely in her home country of Japan. This, to me, is a sad thing because Yae is one of the most remarkable women I have ever heard about.

Instead of using these to build up God and assuage his anger, Jonah uses these words to accuse God of not being angry enough. Jonah seems to think that he knew that God would not destroy the town of Ninevah,…
