Agatha Macbeth: I think Bieup's one of the laggiest sims on the grid

--BELL--1315
Agatha Macbeth: Looks like a redhead fest
Lila Darkmatter: :)
Lila Darkmatter: sorry to be late
Agatha Macbeth: Well I don't doubt you're earlier than some wo;; be Lil
Agatha Macbeth: woll*
Agatha Macbeth: will*
Agatha Macbeth: (shit)
Santoshima Resident: :)
Lila Darkmatter: :)
Agatha Macbeth: I hate this KB
Santoshima Resident: invitation to type slowly?
Agatha Macbeth: Mm, could be
Agatha Macbeth: Or blow the keys out
Agatha Macbeth: You look very colourful Lil
Lila Darkmatter: how are intentions coming along?
Lila Darkmatter: thanks... feel colorful ^^
Agatha Macbeth: ^.^
DR42 Resident: Not mine, but I still have tonight.
Lila Darkmatter: :) so in general "okay" I guess? for me too
Agatha Macbeth: Depends what you intend...
Lila Darkmatter: I chose "speak from the heart"
DR42 Resident: Meditate twice a day.
Agatha Macbeth: Aww
Lila Darkmatter: though I prob should be meditating, hah
Agatha Macbeth: A few years in the absolute elsewhere
Lila Darkmatter: what've you been up to Carl?
carlicann Resident: I intend to overcome the culture of mistrust at work... planted the seeds today
Lila Darkmatter: oooh.. say more?
carlicann Resident: organizations have poisonous managers and legacy behaviors... we are worst than most... creates mistrust within and without
carlicann Resident: I have been reading The Circle Way and leadership books.. and found some great content about trust... fed that to the people who can change our culture today
Lila Darkmatter: seems a large war with many little battles when you phrase it that way.. is Circle Trust a less coercive sensibility?
carlicann Resident: trust metrics will be built into internal and external surveys in future
Lila Darkmatter: or Circle Way, rather
DR42 Resident: Corporate memory is difficult to overcome, most when decisions are made by committee.
carlicann Resident: We are using Circle Way and World Cafe also... at certain events
Lila Darkmatter: ah, love the WC model
Agatha Macbeth: What are they?
carlicann Resident: currently decisions being made top down... and nobody likes that... except the tops
carlicann Resident: Facilitation techniques based on some books... The Circle Way.. and The World Cafe
Lila Darkmatter: Eos has talked a bit about World Cafe.. they've done that at ALIA - basically a way of brainstorming collectively
Agatha Macbeth: Ah
carlicann Resident: very new age-y... but used in industry
carlicann Resident: yup... ALIA leadership training
Lila Darkmatter nods
carlicann Resident: Prescencing.. what you do here.. is very integral to hosting those processes
Lila Darkmatter: we have a kind of shfting leadership sensibility I think, people stepping in and out of intitiatives
DR42 Resident: Another is "Human Dynamics" which explores the decision styles and communications needs of people.
carlicann Resident: sounds very familiar Lila... there is always a flavor of the month
Lila Darkmatter: :)
Lila Darkmatter: not really aspiring to no leader though I guess it is the same ultimately
Lila Darkmatter: what is human dynamics, Marjorie?
DR42 Resident: 1 sec
--BELL--1330
DR42 Resident: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Human-Dynami...human+dynamics
Lila Darkmatter: ty
carlicann Resident: Human dynamics is a branch of complex systems research in statistical physics. Its main goal is to understand human behavior using methods originally developed in statistical physics.
carlicann Resident: Is that it Maude?
DR42 Resident: no
carlicann Resident: Ahhh kk
DR42 Resident: Human Dynamics: A New Framework for Understanding People and Realizing the Potential in Our Organizations
carlicann Resident: that sounds similar to Appreciative Inquiry.. yet another generative facilitation technique
carlicann Resident: I intend to apply these tools... will be a long sales cycle lol
Lila Darkmatter: it is interesting to think in terms of understanding people ..often it seems to me that group dynamics are completely different.. like sometimes a group personality emerges?
Agatha Macbeth: Sounds more like controlling people than understanding them
Lila Darkmatter: :) well there is the puzzle of if one wants to accomplish something... like when we do party planning.. the getting everyone o same pages etc
Agatha Macbeth: Oh if it's like that best of luck to em :p
DR42 Resident: Not really, I took the training along with about 40 others in the group I worked in. We went from dysfunctional to being very productive.
Lila Darkmatter: and one person wants everything to be fun and easy or and another wants an outline of start to finish... and everyone wants to work together
carlicann Resident: Hello WOL
Agatha Macbeth: Wollie ♥
Wol Euler: evening all
DR42 Resident: It's understanding those differences and using them to the best of each persons ability.
DR42 Resident: I'm the outline one.
Lila Darkmatter: :)
Lila Darkmatter: so's Aph
carlicann Resident: Hello Korel!
Lila Darkmatter: Hi Kori :)
Agatha Macbeth: Osiyo K
Santoshima Resident: hi Wol and Korel
DR42 Resident: Winston Churchill was also.
Korel Laloix: Osiyo... smiles
Lila Darkmatter: I'm not sure where I fall... there are projects I'd love to work on but find the amount of planning and follow up daunting for now
Lila Darkmatter: (re pab in particular)
Lila Darkmatter: anyway... sorry.. just had cafecita and may be typing fast :P
Wol Euler smiles.
Agatha Macbeth: Had what?
Agatha Macbeth: Sounds painful
Lila Darkmatter: cafe con leche (un poquito)
Agatha Macbeth: Wow
Agatha Macbeth: Poco loco
Lila Darkmatter: haha
Lila Darkmatter: still give talks, Carl? will this be a next step?
carlicann Resident: learning to practice PaB is helping me in several ways... to be a better facilitator with more Presence... to be less anxious ... and I'd like to do a research paper on facilitation techniques with some friends
Lila Darkmatter: wonderful
Wol Euler smiles.
carlicann Resident: a friend needs something to boost her career... since I know several facilitators... we are working together
Lila Darkmatter: interesting
--BELL--1345
DR42 Resident: Hello Zen.
Zen Arado: 's current display-name is "Zen".
Agatha Macbeth: Hello Zenny
carlicann Resident: Hiya Zen!
Agatha Macbeth: Rock n' roll
Santoshima Resident: hi Zen :)
Lila Darkmatter: Hi Zen :)
Zon Kwan: hi zen
Wol Euler: hello zen
Zen Arado: Hi all
Zen Arado: SL keeps taking dizzy fits
Zen Arado: almost crashes then recovers
Agatha Macbeth: Yeh it's like that
Zen Arado: hmm
Agatha Macbeth: Just having you on
Agatha Macbeth: I must admit rescuing you from Buyeo that time was quite fun
Lila Darkmatter: rescuing?
Zen Arado: was trapped
Lila Darkmatter: oh dear
Agatha Macbeth: Yeh, poor Zen got stuck at home
Zen Arado: grounded
Agatha Macbeth: Took us about half an hour to get him back
Wol Euler: (brb, need food)
Agatha Macbeth: Go and eat Wollie
Agatha Macbeth: (and drink)
Santoshima Resident: bye wol
Zen Arado: TV prog on about people eating too much sugar
Zen Arado: and big manufacturers encouraging it
Agatha Macbeth: I do drink it but don't eat it
Zen Arado: as bad a smoking for health
Lila Darkmatter nods...
Agatha Macbeth: Well I certainly don't do that any more
Zen Arado: coke and pepsi are loaded with sugar
carlicann Resident: 8 teaspoons per can
Zen Arado: and sodas of any kind
Santoshima Resident: all processed foods
Zen Arado: yeh
carlicann Resident: / Would you ever voluntarily put 8 Teaspoons in your drink? lol
Zen Arado: hah porridge even
Zen Arado: the instant kind
Lila Darkmatter: part of why I'm juicing.. people try to take away sugar without replacing it or changing habits and then feel discouraged not to stay on track with cravings
Zen Arado: fruit juices are loaded with sugar too
Zen Arado: not so bad if you make your own I guess
Lila Darkmatter: depends on how you make them
Lila Darkmatter nods
Agatha Macbeth: What's trhat sugar substitute that's supposed to be really bad for you?
carlicann Resident: / I've gone to the dark side... I use Sucralose.. CSPI has no problem with it either... 1:1 substitute even use it in baking
Wol Euler: all of them
Zen Arado: aspartame?
Santoshima Resident: all of them
Wol Euler: snap
Agatha Macbeth: begins with an A
Zen Arado: yeh
Santoshima Resident: use stevia
Agatha Macbeth: Yes
Lila Darkmatter: is stevia the agave?
Santoshima Resident: nope
Santoshima Resident: a plant those
Agatha Macbeth: I've heard bad reports about it
Santoshima Resident: about agave?
Agatha Macbeth: No, aspartame
Korel Laloix: I use a lot of agave and maple in my cooking.
Korel Laloix: But I have to say i really preffer diet sodas.
Agatha Macbeth pokes Korel
Zen Arado: sugar only became available about 150 years ago
DR42 Resident: There has been some research that indicates the reactions in your body trigger many of the same mechanisms that sugar does and is just as bad for you for the same reasons.
Zen Arado: so now far too much in our diet
Agatha Macbeth: I'm sweet enough anyway
Korel Laloix: But I do like honey on things directly.... more so then dcooking with it.
Korel Laloix smiles
Agatha Macbeth: Mm hunny
Lila Darkmatter: what I've heard is that nature makes sugar (cane) full of fiber because it takes work to get to it... nothing is "bad" if balanced correctly ..something like that
Zen Arado: if you have a sugary reakfast your body burns that for energy insted of burning fat...which it then stores
Zen Arado: yeh it's the refining and concentrating we do makes it worse Lila
Zen Arado: I think
Lila Darkmatter: and amounts, nods... sugar is like poison for me, but I love it so
Lila Darkmatter: :)
Agatha Macbeth: Is white sugar worse than brown?
Zen Arado: this is based on a book I read a while ago that Wester told me about
Santoshima Resident: samesame
Lila Darkmatter: I can feel it in my body immediately... toxicity
Agatha Macbeth: Hm
carlicann Resident: I co-authored a cookbook.. it was a very political exercise... what we put in our bodies... and what we waste... are highly poltical decisions imho
carlicann Resident: made me completely rethink my diet and consumption... esp. the use of plastics
Santoshima Resident: name of the book, if you are willing to say?
Zen Arado: but big companies are driven to please consumers..and we crave sugar
Wol Euler: (we can take it out of hte log if you are concerned about privacy)
Zen Arado: imagine putting sugar in baked beans
Zen Arado: but they do
carlicann Resident: free download http://www.mediafire.com/view/1dz997...ublication.pdf or read it online
Santoshima Resident: ty, will look for it
Lila Darkmatter: ty
Wol Euler: thanks, looking
--BELL--1400
carlicann Resident: Chapter 2 goes into the food politics
DR42 Resident: "In remembrance of Karen Carpenter."

If only Mamma Cass had given her that ham sandwich...

Zen Arado: wow interesting
Zen Arado: I can't seem to magnify the text
Zen Arado: hmm
Agatha Macbeth hands Zen a telescope
Lila Darkmatter: :)
Zen Arado: my poor old eyes
Agatha Macbeth: Aww
Wol Euler smiles.
Zen Arado: and I just found out I can't hear above 12,000 Hz
Lila Darkmatter: not sure why when you type your leg goes up Zen... full of quirks :) or "character"
Zen Arado: did a hearing test online
Agatha Macbeth: Isn't it ctrl + ?
Zen Arado: doesn't seem to work on this PDF
Agatha Macbeth: Oh PDF
Wol Euler: did you control for your speakers / headphones not being able to reproduce high sounds?
DR42 Resident: Deaf and blind. "Two out of three ain't bad." :)
Agatha Macbeth: Hm dunno
Zen Arado: usually just control and scroll
Zen Arado: can still talk anyway :)
Agatha Macbeth: Are you using Acrobat?
Lila Darkmatter: :)
Zen Arado: what's Acrobat?
carlicann Resident: telephones only go up to about 9,000 Hz as I recall... you are still a functional being imho
Agatha Macbeth: PDF reader
Zen Arado: ah Adobe
Agatha Macbeth: Yep
Zen Arado: it didn't come up in Adobe
DR42 Resident: Old copper line telephone was filtered between 300 and 3300, IIRC
Agatha Macbeth: Oh
carlicann Resident: right Maude!
Zen Arado: you should do one of the tests but it might horrify you
Agatha Macbeth: Not much horrifies me these days
Zen Arado: I wasted money buying good headphones looks like
Zen Arado: well I thought my ears were good
Zen Arado: just old age
Zen Arado: I guess
Agatha Macbeth: Shame you aren't a dog
DR42 Resident: Yea, but dogs are colour blind, yes?
carlicann Resident: study deterioration of visual acuity... now there's some scarry aging material... I think it's one of the reasons we are mortal
Agatha Macbeth: Dunno, I never asked one
Zen Arado: oh I found the zoom
Agatha Macbeth: Yay
Wol Euler smiles.
Agatha Macbeth: Go for it Zenny
Agatha Macbeth: Blow that sucker up
Zen Arado: it suddenly appears if you put cursor near bottom of screen
carlicann Resident: Don't perv my coauthor's breasts pls lolol
Agatha Macbeth: 0.0
DR42 Resident: We are past the hour, time to go think about making dinner.
DR42 Resident: Have a wonderful day everyone.
Agatha Macbeth: Eat well M
carlicann Resident: thank you Maude!
Agatha Macbeth: No sugar
Zen Arado: 'Always Have Fun' sounds interesting too
Zen Arado: byee Wol
Lila Darkmatter: bye Maude :)
DR42 Resident: (Sugar makes me violently ill.)
Wol Euler: bye maude
Agatha Macbeth: Wol is still here :p
Wol Euler: yep
Wol Euler: where should I be?
carlicann Resident: Maude and I started our day together here 12 hours ago.. my 1st PaB session.. and I must say... it's been a heck of a day.. really did well in the first meeting... very focused
Agatha Macbeth: Halifax?
Zen Arado: ' Forward! Our first virtual world book, Always Have Fun!, taught you everything you need to know to have a terrifically fun experience in your Second Life. Oodles of Live Music! Non-stop Parties! And then how you can organize your own events, photograph, and blog them into history! '
Agatha Macbeth: Sounds interesting
carlicann Resident: that book was based on New Citizens Inc courses... on basic SL skills like party animalism lol
Agatha Macbeth: Oh right
Zen Arado: ah well ..we are all to serious for that
Agatha Macbeth: They have a place just south of here I think
Wol Euler nods.
Wol Euler: we'd never do anything as silly as an
Wol Euler: onigokko
Agatha Macbeth: Erk
Lila Darkmatter: >pouts< I never have mine on
Wol Euler: awwwww, spoilsports
Wol Euler: stop
Santoshima Resident: am never ready for that
Santoshima Resident: dang
Agatha Macbeth: I just noticed Korel left :p
carlicann Resident: mosh pit at PaB... I want the film rights heh
Lila Darkmatter: it translates to something like the devil dance?
Lila Darkmatter: onigokko
Wol Euler: much better!
Agatha Macbeth: Kind of japanese tag i think
Wol Euler: heheheheh
carlicann Resident: what the hell!!!!
Lila Darkmatter laughs
Lila Darkmatter: stop
Wol Euler: heheheh
Santoshima Resident: again!
Wol Euler: so much for seriousitude
carlicann Resident: i feel refreshed lol.... good laugh
Agatha Macbeth: I got that the first time I came here
Santoshima Resident: no wonder you came back!
Agatha Macbeth: Yah
Lila Darkmatter: Eden said that too... that she came back for oni
Lila Darkmatter: :)
--BELL--1415
Agatha Macbeth: Aww Edie is crayzeee ♥
Lila Darkmatter: (re facilitation, on this page there are some interesting theme sessions [toward the bottom] https://wiki.playasbeing.org/Theme_Sessions )
Agatha Macbeth: I wonder what you make of PaB thus far Carl?
Zen Arado: interesting os sexism in the book
Zen Arado: sexism in SL
carlicann Resident: yes... implicit sexism is very detectable here...
Agatha Macbeth: Oh?
Agatha Macbeth: More so than in RL?
carlicann Resident: definately int
Lila Darkmatter: that's what people like most about SL, lol
Agatha Macbeth: Wow
Lila Darkmatter: (kidding)
Agatha Macbeth grins
Zen Arado: I tried having a female av but didn't notice much difference
carlicann Resident: it is in RL.. but it is much easier to experience it here... you could try a male avi and experience the other side easily
Zen Arado: maybe it takes time
Lila Darkmatter: as a male avie I felt a lot of pressure to instigate conversation... stressful
Wol Euler: and good (or bad) luck
Agatha Macbeth: Wouldn't fancy that much ;)
carlicann Resident: interesting Lila
Zen Arado: perhaps some people play out a female stereotype
Lila Darkmatter: but mostly it is me projecting that onto male av
Zen Arado: I have a friend who became very silly as a female
Zen Arado: yes
Agatha Macbeth: Who'd do that eh?
Zen Arado: we haven't actyally learned how to ehcve as the other sex
Zen Arado: behave
Agatha Macbeth: Ehcve?
Agatha Macbeth: Ah
Agatha Macbeth: Thought it was some strange sex act
Zen Arado: (code)
Zen Arado: :)
Lila Darkmatter shakes head
Agatha Macbeth: Fancy a quick ehcve?
Santoshima Resident: gotto go .. some pwer drilling to take care of
Santoshima Resident: o
Lila Darkmatter: have fun, San
Wol Euler: bye san, have fun with the holes
Zen Arado: byee San
Agatha Macbeth: Drill well San
Santoshima Resident: gotta warm up the old circular saw
Agatha Macbeth: Hope you strike oil
Santoshima Resident: ty
Lila Darkmatter flexes fingers that are afraid of saws
Agatha Macbeth: A saw point
Wol Euler: let's move up
Lila Darkmatter: hiya, fancy meeting you on this cushion
Agatha Macbeth: e8(=Q)
Wol Euler smiles.
Agatha Macbeth: That was me moving up
Lila Darkmatter: :)
Wol Euler: I only come here in the silly season
Agatha Macbeth: You mean all the time?
Lila Darkmatter: that's the silly curhion?
Wol Euler: right
Lila Darkmatter: cushion*
Zen Arado: a little man came and installed a fridge and took away the old one yesterday
Agatha Macbeth loves a good curhion
carlicann Resident: Since starting PaB today, I've noticed that it is easy for me to have a blank mind.... never knew that... maybe I'm a natural meditator
Wol Euler: ah, I need that service too
Zen Arado: it was remarkable though sounds ordinary
Zen Arado: a little man in his 60's
Agatha Macbeth: Mine needs defrosting
Lila Darkmatter: just today Carl? so you've been pausing during the day?
Wol Euler listens.
Zen Arado: yet he moved a big heavy fridge so easily
Zen Arado: poetry in motion
Agatha Macbeth: Perhaps he's one of those tibetan guys
Zen Arado: just minomal effort
carlicann Resident: yes... you pause and wait for a chitta (thought in Hindi)... I've read some Hindu literature... they've studied the mind for thousands of years
Zen Arado: yeh almost like Tai Chi or something
carlicann Resident: so if a normal person has a spontaneous chitta.. in 9 secs.. maybe I'm not so normal
Agatha Macbeth: Then you came to the right place ;)
Lila Darkmatter: I find it pretty remarkable that one can go for years and years and not stop to look at their mind really...
Lila Darkmatter: not in a certain way... rather always playing with thoughts
Agatha Macbeth: First trick is finding it
Lila Darkmatter: :)
Zen Arado: 'ordinary' people can be so remarkable
Lila Darkmatter: or finding someone who can point it out to you... PaB is such a reminder
Agatha Macbeth: Road signs
Wol Euler nods.
Lila Darkmatter: goodness... am going to have to go but was fun to linger and play... how about one more
Zen Arado: just standing on a chair changing a lightbulb looks extremely dangerous now from my perspective
Lila Darkmatter: onigokko
Lila Darkmatter: hehehe
Wol Euler cheers!
Lila Darkmatter: get the pixels flowing
Zen Arado: :)
Lila Darkmatter: stop
Agatha Macbeth: I read recently that Timothy Leary had a thing where he rang a bell every 15 mins and people had to record what they were doing and thinking
Zen Arado: stretches his pixels
Zen Arado: crack
Zen Arado: oh
Agatha Macbeth: Maybe that's where Pema got the idea
Lila Darkmatter: interesting Aggers... had never heard that
Agatha Macbeth: Thing was it went on all day!
Lila Darkmatter: as far as I know it was just the desire for continuity... also I think they do that in monasteries?
Agatha Macbeth: Maybe
--BELL--1430
Lila Darkmatter: though perhaps not 15 minute intervals
Agatha Macbeth: I'll ask a monk
Zen Arado: gotta go play with my synth
Lila Darkmatter: I think of it like a dolphin coming up for air then submerging back into the depths... though not sure which is the air or depths ;-)
Wol Euler: have fun, you too
Wol Euler: enjoy the day
Agatha Macbeth: Bye
Lila Darkmatter: enjoy the night :)
Zen Arado: byee all
Lila Darkmatter: see you soon again!
carlicann Resident: Does anyone mind if I friend them and stuff
Agatha Macbeth: Hopefully
Wol Euler: thankee
Wol Euler: of course, carl :) but I think we aleady are :) from the drum cicle

Drum circle?

Agatha Macbeth: The SL friend thing doesn't really bother me
carlicann Resident: Yeah.. okay... JL Morin still does those circles... once a month .. writers workshop
Agatha Macbeth: After a coupla months people forget you and then just remove em :p
carlicann Resident: JL Morin has fantastic novel writing skills
carlicann Resident: <-- spoken in PaB ese lol
Agatha Macbeth: Don't know him
carlicann Resident: she
Agatha Macbeth: Don't know her either
Wol Euler: ah
carlicann Resident: her latest book http://www.amazon.com/Trading-Dreams.../dp/B008ZPVP4W
carlicann Resident: it's Occupy Wall St.. meets Sexism on the Trading Floor
Agatha Macbeth: Anything like Ayn Rand?
Agatha Macbeth: If not she has something going at least :p
carlicann Resident: not at all.. very into anti-sexism, sex positive feminism... and economic justice
Agatha Macbeth: Oh I like her already!
Wol Euler: sounds good :)
carlicann Resident: she's great.. I brought her into SL... we made her book #1 in Political Fiction... on Amazon Kindle Store.. in about 4 days
carlicann Resident: then we did it again 6 mos later
Agatha Macbeth ponders political fiction
Wol Euler grins.
carlicann Resident: Primary Colors.. Joel Klein.. is an example
Agatha Macbeth: Guess the fiction can't be much worse than the fact
Wol Euler nods.
Agatha Macbeth yawns and stretches
carlicann Resident: I'm not a fiction lover as a habit... but I really enjoyed her stories... over 70 little chapters.... like written for short attention spans lol... she had to make a great point every few pages
Agatha Macbeth: How's the jetlag Wollie?
Wol Euler: mostly done
Agatha Macbeth: Good
Wol Euler: I'm glad to say
Agatha Macbeth: Hopefully you can sleep now
Wol Euler: well no, there's seven days to go on the competition :)
Agatha Macbeth: OMG
carlicann Resident: did you have anti-malarial drugs on that trip?
Agatha Macbeth: Best of luck with that
Wol Euler: thanks :)
Wol Euler: no, I was in Toronto
carlicann Resident: ahhh lol
Agatha Macbeth: They have mosquitoes in Canada don't they?
carlicann Resident: Toronto is the original of Marcha De Las Vadias
Agatha Macbeth: I remember the ones in NS
carlicann Resident: March of the B*tches... is a feminist protest march that went worldwide...
Agatha Macbeth: Great
Agatha Macbeth: If it comes back I'll join
carlicann Resident: A Toronto cop said something really stupid blaming a women's dress for her victimization
Agatha Macbeth: Well you have to make allowances for policemen
Wol Euler: ha
carlicann Resident: Nutters in Brazil have taken it too far and made it into an anti-church movement too
Wol Euler: nutters do, alas
Agatha Macbeth: Chacun a son gout eh
carlicann Resident: very controversial... smashing religous icons
Wol Euler: anyway, m'dears, it's coming up to midnight and I am really tired
Agatha Macbeth: Yep
Agatha Macbeth: That time
Wol Euler: carl, lovely to see you here and I hope you'll be back
Agatha Macbeth: Schlaf gut ♥
carlicann Resident: kk sleep well Wol.. fly through joy in your dreams!
Agatha Macbeth: Bye for now Carl, nice to meet you
