firstly, i have yet to see such a perfect specimen of a bubble o bill emerge from its wrapper as are displayed in these promotions. usually a half - melted, then re - frozen blob of vague dimensions, crusted over with a layer of sparkly ice crystals. suggest pack shot fantasy vs. promo reality could be an area needing some attention from streets. secondly, along the same lines as the mla’s current “lambasting” over its savage and alarming vegan flamethrower attack, it doesn’t take long for someone to connect a mildly amusing attempt at ice cream humour on a billboard with responsibility for the massive undermining of many years of noble work by charities and other agencies in the area of suicide prevention. is this really what we’ve come down to ?

there are a lot of really good books on the subject of ericksonian hypnotherapy - - thousands of pages and millions of words. now here comes bill o' hanlon with a deceptively slender volume of the very best, very most important, very most powerful things every hypnotist should know to do this stuff elegantly and well. it would be hard to overestimate how much value this book contains per page, or how valuable it could be if gotten into enough hands - - especially those of the direct - suggestion hypnosis school. a guide to trance land is a marvel .

however, while some beehive teams did achieve success, the overall rate was much lower than the accelerator teams. the rate of progress was noticeably lower as was the drive to get their team to achieve “escape velocity” – our term for being a strong enough team to move out of the “mit bubble” and establish itself as a standalone company .
there’s one other key piece to pull out. the filter bubble was really about two concerns: that algorithms would help folks surround themselves with media that supports what they already believe, and that algorithms will tend to down - rank the kind of media that’s most necessary in a democracy — news and information about the most important social topics .

jon hamm seems like a really nice guy. to clarify: a really nice, tall, well - built guy who you probably wouldn’t want to piss off. and yet, president donald trump and disgraced fox news host bill o’reilly thought it would be a cool, fun idea to have some kind of alpha - male standoff with hamm during a saturday night live after - party last year (for the snl episode that trump infamously hosted), and the whole thing just left our dear hammy a bit confused. “he was with bill o’reilly, ” he explained to the new york times. “they’re both tall dudes. and i’m a tall dude. and they both do that tall - dude thing, which is try to intimidate you. and it doesn’t work on me. i’m like, ‘i’m as alpha as you. let’s go. you’re not going to chest - bump me. ’ it was a very weird night. it was the shortest i’ve ever stayed at an snl after - party. ” think of all of the un - eaten canapés and iced beverages that were sacrificed due to this ordeal. at least trump’s inner circle is taking the anecdote well .
in february, o’sullivan collected hanley from dublin airport, “you could smell the death off him. ” hanley had been sitting next to the actor gabriel byrne on the flight over. he said goodbye to byrne and got in o’sullivan’s car. at st james’s hospital, the doctor came out to o’sullivan after about 15 minutes with hanley. “‘look, terry, the bottom line here is that vincent is close to death. i know it’s putting something on your shoulders, would you like me to let him go now? ’ i thought about it and said, ‘no, could you hold on to him for a while because i know he’d like to say goodbye to people’. i regretted that terribly. i think it prolonged his suffering, and mine, to tell the truth. ”
she wandered into an upper room, and we followed. there, she showed us two custom - made instruments, a celeste and what looked like a harpsichord. both had been modified somehow through instructions from a programme on her mac. i could tell that o was completely lost as she explained how this worked. yet it was then, right then, that i realised how much she and o were alike – fellow geniuses, incredibly, intuitively brilliant – while being at the same time such an unlikely pair of friends .
the alithia guys also stopped us at a 7 / 11 and introduced us to something called ‘australiana’. they got us some tim tams and also an ice - cream called bubble - o - bill, what a crazy country! but we were still hungry, so we bought our favourite food, the famous wicked wings from kfc, which is something really special for us because in austria there is only one kfc in the whole country! on the way to newcastle the weather cooled down and so did the warnings about the bush fires, so we stopped by a town called avoca and went to the beach there. the water was such a beautiful temperature and it was the perfect way to enjoy a sunday afternoon. after a short swim with the alithia guys, we went back on the road and got ready for the show. again we enjoyed some fantastic local supports bands and then a very wild and crazy local audience which gave us another fun night .

for me, this was part of the fascination with him. i was seeing a few other men during my first summer in new york, but dates with o were completely different. we didn’t go to movies or to moma or to new restaurants or broadway shows. we took long walks in the botanical garden in the bronx, where he could expatiate on every species of fern. we visited the museum of natural history – not for the dinosaurs or special exhibitions but to spend time in the often empty, chapel - like room of gems, minerals, and, especially, the elements – o knew the stories behind the discoveries of every single one. at night, we might walk from the west village to the east, o talking excitedly nonstop, to have a beer and burger at mcsorley’s old ale house .
in 1986, with rumours surrounding his health, hanley agreed to come home and see an ophthalmologist. o’sullivan heard photographers and journalists were going to be at dublin airport, so asked a contact in aer lingus to take hanley off the plane at shannon, where he collected him .

early 1980s new york and san francisco. the clubs, the scene, the hedonism, the height of edgy glamour. something was wrong. in 1981 or 1982 o’sullivan was on holiday in ibiza with a doctor friend when a group of english guys approached selling poppers – amyl nitrate .
a few years ago, i gave a talk about how algorithms and social media shape what we know. i focused on the dangers of the “filter bubble” — the personalized universe of information that makes it into our feed — and argued that news - filtering algorithms narrow what we know, surrounding us in information that tends to support what we already believe. here’s the main slide :
“he just upped sticks and went to new york out of the blue, ” o’sullivan remembers. “i was stunned. i didn’t know what he was doing and why he was doing it. ‘i want to make it big, ’ he said. he was barely in london two years. ”
i love when writers write to the point. there is no bs in this book, no stories that drone on and on endlessly, so long you forget what the poi t even is or if it will ever come. the few examples are short, to the poi t and completely relevant. he gives the problem and solution. this book is mainly about a solution oriented approach to hypnosis and how to use it. i absolutely enjoyed this short and to the pint book. in these days who has time to sit around for weeks reading irrelevant words and experiences. i' m going to be looking for more books by this writer, bill o' hanlon .
16 august 2015 “i say i love writing, but really it is thinking i love – that rush of thoughts – new connections in the brain being made. and it comes out of the blue. ” o smiled. “in such moments: i feel such love of the world, love of thinking…”
hanley, however, thought he would live. he went back to new york for a month but became more and more ill. back home, o’sullivan arranged for treatment in st james’s hospital, where a doctor and nurse there were the main port of call for people with aids in ireland at the time .
in the talk, i called on mark zuckerberg, bill gates, and larry and sergey at google (some of whom were reportedly in the audience) to make sure that their algorithms prioritize countervailing views and news that’s important, not just the stuff that’s most popular or most self - validating. (i also wrote a book on the topic, if you’re into that sort of thing. )
i believe it was buffalo bill! !! !! !! !! i never thought i would see people actually writing about this. it is still one of my favorite memorys from my childhood. hey heres another one... . how about the green frog with m n m eyes? ?? ?? yup deff a bk thing cuz thats where im from: 0) lol
returning to leeds, bill pursued a number of research projects related to coal, gas and oil combustion and gasification as a senior research fellow with particular emphasis on nox, and sox emission control in partnership with major uk power generation companies. recently, bill’s research activities have been closely related to the development of the uk national ukccsrc pact facilities focused on carbon capture processes and in particular to pilot scale oxy - fuel combustion projects. additionally, significant research activity has been developed in the areas of fluidized - bed biomass combustion, corrosion associated with biomass and oxy - fuel combustion and small scale anaerobic digestion systems for both urban and rural locations in developing countries. he was appointed associate professor and since 2009, he has contributed to research projects with a total value in excess of £7m as principal or co - investigator .
bill is a reader in the energy engineering group in the mechanical engineering department at the university of sheffield and is part of the team developing academic and industrial projects for the energy 2050 initiative. bill’s background is in chemical and combustion engineering having gained his phd in fluidized bed waste gasification processes at leeds university in the mid 1980’s. a period in industry followed, working on full scale coal gasifier development (350 tpd) for british gas, westfield development centre, scotland, as part of the british gas sng programme in partnership with lurgi gmbh. projects involved the study of fuel bed behavior at full scale and process development for operation with caking and difficult coals. other projects involved commissioning and operation of pilot plant associated with gas cleanup and upgrading to substitute natural gas using real syn - gas from the full scale plant .
in a year when college campuses were particularly visible as hotbeds of political activity, o’keefe’s stunt didn’t make much of a splash. the administrator in the clip seems confused and skeptical, like an actress flubbing her lines, while the real - life vassar kids caught on camera look mildly inconvenienced rather than incensed. what stands out is that, in contrast to o’keefe’s other provocations, the clip could have served a variety of political viewpoints. as a parody of campus life, it tapped into a broader suspicion, shared across the ideological spectrum—from right - wing watchdogs to high - minded progressives—that college students these days are absurdly thin - skinned, unduly obsessed with “safe spaces” and political correctness .
17 february 2015 in post - surgery recovery: cutting off blood supply to the tumours in the liver may sound somewhat benign, but the body revolts with full force against such an intrusion. o repeatedly tears off his hospital gown because he is in so much pain that even the thin cotton material causes discomfort. the young female nurses act scandalised by this and keep trying to cover him up. at one point, o yells out in exasperation: “if one can’t be naked in a hospital, where can one be naked? ! ” i hear a nurse in the hallway join me in laughter. i cover his genitals with a washcloth when the morphine finally kicks in and he falls asleep .
i remember an ice cream bar from the 80' s called buffalo bill, it had chocolate head, a vanilla face and bubblegum nose. it was pretty yummy too. i use to buy it from mr. softee. (you know the ice cream truck) hmm maybe it was a ny thing. lol that ice cream bar is defintely from the 80' s there is alo flintsone ice cream bars. i still see those around
o’sullivan says hanley remained in denial. the week before he died in april 1987 he asked his doctor to let him off for a few days so he could go to ashford castle. it was an almost insane request for someone so close to death. hanley persisted, and got a taxi from dublin to cong, co mayo and spent the week there .
in iowa, where the former maryland governor’s campaign has focused the majority of its resources, he’s right on the edge: the five most recent polls that meet nbc’s standards have o’malley at an average of exactly 5 percent. if his support dropped between now and debate day, that could jeopardize his position on stage depending on how willing nbc is to round up .
there was a small reception afterwards. nothing fancy – two bottles of san pellegrino and a couple bottles of wine – but no bottle - opener. o and i were talking with kevin when lauren hutton walked up to us: “do one of you kind gentlemen have an opener? even a knife would do – i could pry it open with a penknife. ”

what do you miss most about oliver? his companionship. i hope the reader gets a sense of what our relationship and conversations were like. we talked and laughed a lot. he was very funny and liked wordplay and puns. he could be very self - deprecating and eccentric. so most of all i miss the comfort of his company and the laughter. interview by lisa o’kelly
10 august 2015 o is working on a new piece: sabbath. every now and then, a little request comes, always phrased politely: “if you would be so kind: look up something for me on your little box? ” “little box” is his name for an iphone, a name he finds too ugly to pronounce, to speak. “it’s not even a word, ” as he points out, “it’s a brand. ” sometimes he calls the phone my “communicator”, as if out of star trek. today, he wants me to look up the meaning of the latin “nunc dimittis”. as is almost always the case with o, it wasn’t necessary: he’d had the definition exactly right in the first place: nunc dimittis is “the final song in a religious service” .
despite seeing similar nominal dollar losses, the housing crash led to the great recession, while the dot - com crash led to a mild recession. part of this difference can be seen in consumer spending. the housing crash killed retail spending, which collapsed 8 percent from 2007 to 2009, one of the largest two - year drops in recorded american history. 2 the bursting of the tech bubble, on the other hand, had almost no effect at all; retail spending from 2000 to 2002 actually increased by 5 percent .
the poor cut spending much more for the same dollar decline in wealth. this fact is one of the most robust findings in all of macroeconomics, and has been confirmed in the context of housing, fiscal rebate checks, and credit card limits. it also makes intuitive sense. if bill gates loses $ 30, 000 in a bad investment, he’s not going to cut back his spending. if a household with only $ 30, 000 suffers a similar loss, they’re going to massively slash spending .
but it’s also not insignificant. for self - described liberals on facebook, for example, the algorithm plays a slightly larger role in what they see than their own choices about what to click on. there’s an 8% decrease in cross - cutting content from the algorithm vs. a 6% decrease from liberals’ own choices on what to click. for conservatives, the filter bubble effect is about 5% , and the click effect is about 17% — a pretty different picture. (i’ve pulled out some other interesting findings from the study here. )
björk urged us to sit and eat. the chairs were carved from tree stumps. the tablecloth was embroidered with seashells. on the table: warm, salted mixed nuts in tiny dishes. almost immediately, she brought out a steaming pan of baked trout, a salad and a bowl of boiled potatoes – “i like it with the skins left on, ” she said, almost apologetically, “don’t you? ” o and i nodded .
this year, james o’keefe, the conservative activist famous for his hidden - camera exposés, visited vassar college dressed in costume as the constitution. vassar, where i teach, is one of those campuses that seems to typify, for some, how wacky and permissive higher education has become—a readymade specimen for those seeking to depict the twenty - first - century american college at its most insular and navel - gazing. o’keefe hoped to do this by handing out pocket - sized constitutions outside the campus’ busiest building. one of his operatives, posing as a student, would then coax an administrator into destroying this replica of our nation’s founding document. a video edited down from the day’s footage shows an officer of the college awkwardly humoring the faux student, who is pitch - perfect in her recitation of how the offensively retrograde constitution had “triggered” and traumatized her, helpfully suggesting that the officer use a nearby shredder .
12 january 2015 got back last night from st croix in the us virgin islands – a birthday trip. i turned 54 (equivalent to the atomic number for xenon, so o gave me four xenon flashlights). o did not feel well much of the time – nauseated, tired, slept a lot. we almost cancelled the trip, last minute. two nights before we left, he told me he had “dark urine”. i was sceptical – he’s hypochondriacal even on good days, as he is the first to admit. but i could see he was worried, talked him into peeing into a clear glass so i could check, and was startled when he brought it into the kitchen; his urine was the colour of coca - cola. it seemed to clear up some while we were in st croix. even so, he had made a doctor’s appointment before leaving for the trip .
“hundreds of men, all looking the same, ” o’sullivan remembers, “all in white shirts, all in moustaches, some absolutely gorgeous looking. vincent tried to adopt that style, became sort of butched up. he was a queen trying to butch himself up; it was just a bit silly. ” hanley wasn’t a big drinker, preferring to sip on a glass of beer, but now switched to holding a pint to complete the butch aesthetic .
what this book equaled out to be for me. erickson patterns volume 1 made easy and without all the crap. he basically made an erickson patterns book for dummies. there was alot of euriqe moments for me. thinking to myself o thats how you do that when before i was confused on some stuff i read in other books. he clears it up. still missing some stuff. but he did such a good job im still gonna give him 5 stars .
25 july 2015 in the country: o is finishing one essay, working on two others – at least two others. “how’s the writing going? ” i ask, waking from a nap. he smiles mischievously. “i meant to stop, but i couldn’t. ” and he goes back to it. i watch. he doesn’t have a fancy desk here; it’s just a folding table. all he needs is a pad and his fountain pen and a comfortable chair .
not long after i moved to new york, michael jackson died. o had no idea who michael jackson was. “what is michael jackson? ” he asked me the day after the news – not who but what – which seemed both a very odd and a very apt way of putting it, given how much the brilliant singer had transmuted from a human into an alien being. o often said he had no knowledge of popular culture after 1955, and this was not an exaggeration. he did not know popular music, rarely watched anything on tv but the news, did not enjoy contemporary fiction, and had zero interest in celebrities or fame (including his own). he didn’t possess a computer, had never used email or texted; he wrote with a fountain pen. this wasn’t pretentiousness; he wasn’t proud of it; indeed, this feeling of “not being with it” contributed to his extreme shyness. but there was no denying that his tastes, his habits, his ways – all were irreversibly, fixedly, not of our time .
when i ask, he names each of them, following my finger as i go down the list. he interrupts himself at one point: “they like to be remembered and recited like this. ” “they? ” o nods. he could not look more delighted, and it’s not because of the alcohol. listed separately, under the heading “no or infinitesimal”, are the exceptions. he goes on to explain the difference between organic and nonorganic chemistry. i do not – and expect i never will – understand half of what he is saying .
13 july 2015 very, very tired, i did the dinner dishes quickly, gathered my things, and earlier than usual, told oliver i was heading to bed and said good night. but as i headed for the bedroom, o called to me from his desk, “do you know why i love to read nature and science every week? ” i turned. “no, ” i shook my head. i was almost confused; this seemed such a non sequitur. “surprise – i always read something that surprises me, ” he said.
