How to Become a Philosopher

Thu, 03 May 2007 18:07:13 GMT

clipped by: benjaminoaks
clipper's remarks: ave you ever thought you could be just like Aristotle - if you just had the right push? Well, here it is. These are instructions on how to become the philosopher you have always wanted to be.

Clip Source: www.wikihow.com

Think about things outside your normal range of thought, like the future of civilization and what creates meaning in life. Be the source of your own investigation. Since you're always available to yourself, any line of investigation about yourself (and there can be many) allows you to always make some progress. Consider the basis for what you believe. Why do you believe what you believe? Start from scratch and identify your reasoning.

Write down what you think about these subjects, including ideas you think you shouldn't write down (possibly because you think others may think they are stupid). While you may not be arriving at any striking conclusions, you will be exposing your own assumptions to yourself. You will probably marvel at how silly some of your assumptions can be, and in the process you will mature.

Counting Bars unsigned hiphop review of “Aint Know Mystery” by Magnum Opus

“Aint Know Mystery” by Magnum Opus
myspace.com/ltyrannic
myspace.com/bpasiaticyahoocom

This is the hottest underground album I’ve heard since Godhead The General’s Introduction LP. Magnum O’s L-Tyrannic and Born Prince Asiatic have captured the tru art of MC’ing and created a masterpeice of pure poetic lyrisisim! I mean as I’m listening to it, Nile Hardin of 3rd School Recordings stormed in and said, and I quote,

“This is the best underground album I’ve heard in at least six years!”

And Remember Nile Hardin put out the classic album The Bootleg of Nile Hardin in 2004, And kept Godhead The General at number 2 for weeks on the Ruckers top 10 countdown producing the beat for “Golden Age”. From begining to end this joint is blazin! Track 1, “The Lesson”, should be on every hiphop radio station on the planet.These brothahz breakdown the core down fall of the Black American school system to the last atom. Track 7,”Understanding” is a classic and the type of joint that makes you wish that paternity test says “you are the father”. Track 11,”GhostTown” has one of the illest flows on the map. It’s definately a banger. And let me not forget “Flowin wit Masters”. Man… shit! You gonna have to grab this joint to really bear witness!

This is my first Hottest CD of 2007. Magnum Opus have put together a Tru Classic with Aint Know Mystery, blending together great beats and ill versityle lyrical word plays, senerios, lessons, and chamber arsonal spits over grimey instumentals. This album explored every topic, from riding the trolly with ya chick on her birthday in, “Ive Been Waiting”, to the life of a run-away slave in “No Happy Ending”.

Therefore so behold! I give Magnum O’s Aint No Mystery 6 out of 6 bars.

And it’s the first Tru Classic of 2007.

Tell Congress to Make Our Rights a Priority in 2007

Target: US Congress
Sponsor: American Civil Liberties Union

In recent years, our personal liberties have suffered at the hands of the Bush administration and a Congress that has been afraid to stand up to the administration. As the New Year - and a new Congress - begins, its time to set a new course for liberty and freedom.

On Jan. 23rd, President Bush will deliver the State of the Union address and Congress will be settling in after completing its “100 Hours Agenda.” Before this happens, we must make it clear to Congress that we expect them to address issues critical to freedom-loving people. The important issues that must be addressed are:

1. Restore habeas corpus and due process
2. End torture in secret prisons
3. Stop warrantless eavesdropping on innocent Americans
4. Fix the Patriot Act and bring it in line with the Constitution

Take a stand for the Constitution and help restore the freedoms that were recently taken away. Tell Congress to protect freedom and the Constitution by resolving to make our liberties a priority in the New Year!
