I see you creeping around.

Cool that you got a job at NYU. I'm actually making myself have a layover in NYC to look at the campus, as well as a couple of other places.

Havent seen you in a while. Hope all is well.

Thanks. It's not always easy to maintain civility in the face of stupidity but I try. Fact was I avoided the damn thread until someone asked me to post there.

I am a writer and an artist but my passion is really understanding how everything works together. I enjoy harmonizing things. This can really be anything. I set out to understand cause and effect then work toward determining the most effective order to achieve positive results.

Nah just wondering.

I went to NYC for the first time this summer and loved it. Would love to try and move there and put my Arabic to good use somehow with a humanitarian organization if Im not working directly in the Middle East with people.

El Gato are you really from NYC?

Information management sounds like a strong career choice that will also be in gorwing demand into the future. Improving the way information is disseminated and recieved would definitely improve and organisations efficiency and operational performance. I would think that the psychology you have done would have given you some additional depth of understanding about the receiving unit when we are talking about human beings, which could help in designing systems for people that meet their needs? Your work sounds very intellectually stimulating.

I'm glad I can help keep things interesting

Yes. Although, upon observing this, I tend to want people to take the ethic of the science as their guiding light, more than the "realities" involved with adminstrating and paying for it. So it both disappoints me to see this at some level as well as creates an urge for the people involved to operate from a genuine desire to find and explore the truth regardless of the consequences. I think unless we have some people prepared to do this, and risk their professional reputation and paychecks we will go down, and get stuck in, cul de sacs, instead of continuing on a path that genuine explorers traverse. I will be interested in reading that article you sent a link to not only as it seems to traverse that path but also as I have a family member at the moment that has a cancer diagnosis and is seeking information to make informed choices around treatment. What type of clinical trials have you been working on? Are you doing a PHD or are you a researcher by trade?

True, I need to get my shit together. Why am I on an INTJ forum? I knew I should have brought a map.

I'm stupid and have an undisciplined mind, forgive me.

Same, which is why I asked. But no reply

at first I get mad, then I realize how ridiculous it is and laugh about it.

damn! another cool avi!

That comment about best practice is a mature contemplative reflective consideration and needs to be reinforced by mentors and supervisors to balance out the industry norming of such practices and determining them as competency measures.

I cannot disagree with you in terms of the univeristy valuing people's grasp of mechanistic human behaviour as it is a strong aspect however also agree with you that it is not the end of the story nor the complete and only truth. It is an important thing to get a grasp of however when the functional intentions and motivations of people's behaviour is the focus of your analysis?

Happy New Year! I agree re lionic energy is a force of life energy not easily attributed to gender perhaps more to projected life forces expressed with intensity?

Thanks for the reminder! ... You have retrieved me from walking around in circles staring a hole in the ground while excessively rubbing my forehead and being as absorbed in thought as much as an extrovert is able to be BECAUSE the thing/task/event/whatever I had better not forget doing today was to WELCOME THE NEW YEAR! *lights-going-on* ... BTW, cool avatar

Happy New Year to you! I have a very optimistic feeling about 2010!
