Dr. Joseph Merlino on sexuality, insanity, Freud, fetishes and apathy

Friday, October 5, 2007

You may not know Joseph Merlino, but he knows about you and what makes you function. He knows what turns you on and he knows whether it is a problem for you. Merlino, who is the psychiatry adviser to the New York Daily News, is one of the more accomplished psychiatrists in his field and he is the Senior Editor of the forthcoming book, Freud at 150: 21st Century Essays on a Man of Genius. The battle over interpreting Freud’s legacy still rages, a testament to the father of psychoanalysis and his continuing impact today.

On the eve of the book’s publication, Wikinews reporter David Shankbone went to the Upper East Side of Manhattan to discuss the past and future of Freud and psychoanalysis with Dr. Merlino, one of the preeminent modern psychoanalysts. Shankbone took the opportunity to ask about what insanity is, discuss aberrant urges, reflect upon sadomasochism (“I’m not considered an expert in that field,” laughed Dr. Merlino), and the hegemony of heterosexuality.

Dr. Merlino posits that absent structural, biochemical or physiological defects, insanity and pathology are relative and in flux with the changing culture of which you are a part. So it is possible to be sane and insane all in one day if, for instance, you are gay and fly from the United Kingdom to Saudi Arabia.

Stay Cool This Summer With Auto Air Conditioning System Repair In Maui

byAlma Abell

Despite the stigma that island people live lax lives, you’re probably a very busy person. You don’t have time to take showers and reapply deodorant every hour. Life on Maui can get muggy, humid, and wet in the summer. You need to make sure that your car doesn’t cause you to sweat or get overheated while you’re driving around.

If your AC isn’t working, you should start looking for auto air conditioning system repair in Maui. It’s much smarter to have a working AC, especially with summer right around the corner. You’re going to need all the comfort that you can get.

How to Get a Quote

Different auto shops charge differently for auto air conditioning system repair. At one shop, you might pay twice as much as you would at another shop. To avoid paying too much just to get your air conditioner working, you should get quotes from a few different mechanics.

Some mechanics prefer not to give out quotes over the phone or on their websites. This is normal, since a lot of mechanics can’t tell exactly what’s wrong with your air conditioner without actually looking at it. Auto air conditioning system repair sometimes requires major maintenance and other times it only requires minor labor.

Don’t be afraid to check auto shops’ websites for discounts, coupons, and specials. A lot of auto shops provide special summer discounts for AC refrigerant testing, coolant replenishing, and other important AC services.

Don’t Wait

It’s only going to get hotter so be sure to get your AC fixed before summer hits. If you’re not sure where to take your car, simply contact us and we’ll be happy to help you with any repairs or AC maintenance that you might need at the lowest prices.

Getting your air conditioner fixed at an affordable price is worth the money because your comfort is going to be really important this summer.

China, UN rebuke North Korea for rocket launch

China, UN rebuke North Korea for rocket launch
February 4th, 2020 | Uncategorized |

Thursday, April 19, 2012

China has joined other members of the United Nations Security Council in openly warning North Korea against future provocations and took several diplomatic measures on Tuesday and Wednesday.

China’s foreign ministry released a statement Wednesday that urged a return to talks: “We believe that maintaining peace and stability on the Korean peninsula is in the interest of all parties … Dialogue and negotiation is the only correct way out.”

The statement came after North Korea’s announcement Tuesday that it would no longer honor the testing agreements that have been made with the United States. The United States halted its food aid, which had been part of the agreements, after Friday’s failed launch.

Also on Tuesday, China delivered another stern warning to the nation through its party newspaper Global Times. In the statement, China expressed impatience with its neighbor and said China’s foreign policy toward North Korea would not be hijacked by North Korea’s leaders. Behind the scenes, China has ceased the repatriation of North Korean nationals on Chinese territory.

Diplomatic pressure on North Korea continued this week as the country remained defiant during its celebration Sunday. Kim Jong-un gave his first formal address on Sunday in the aftermath of Friday’s failed attempt to launch a multistage rocket into orbit and in honor of the anniversary of Kim Il-sung’s 100th birthday. North Korea publicly acknowledged that its rocket broke up in flight and over ocean waters before ever taking orbit Friday morning.

The United Nations criticized North Korea over the weekend for a satellite launch that member states saw as a “provocative” move, which followed shortly after the country’s launch. UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon called the attempt “deplorable” and said it “threatens regional stability.” Corinne Momal-Vanian, UN spokesperson, said, “The Secretary-General urges the (North Korean government) not to undertake any further provocative actions that will heighten tension in the region.”

The UN Security Council met in a closed session Friday. Susan Rice, who is both the current UN Security Council president and US ambassador to the United Nations, said, “The United States’ view of this is quite clear, we have condemned the launch. We view it as a direct violation of resolution 1718 and 1874. We think it’s important that the Council respond credibly and we will be working in that direction.”

While China is being openly critical of North Korea, it has a veto right on the UN Security Council that has prevented further sanctions. US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said China stood with other member nations of the Security Council in penalizing North Korea for future actions.

In a nation where speeches by leaders are rare, the young North Korean leader on Sunday said, “Superiority in military technology is no longer monopolized by imperialists.” The public event finished with the display of a new rocket and it further punctuated Kim Jong-un’s call for making the military the nation’s number one priority.

The year 2007 marks the meeting of the major representatives of the watch and jewelry industry at BaselWorld Show, Basel, Switzerland. The Show will take place in the period of April 12 – 19, 2007. The international event is to attract over 2000 companies from 45 countries and about 90,000 visitors.

At present day the luxury goods business holds quite strong positions in the world industry and is still developing at high rates due to appropriate economic climate. Thus, BaselWorld is perceived by watch and jewelry producers and their partners as favorable new grounds for their further development.

BaselWorld is organized annually by MCH Swiss Exhibition (Basel) Ltd with a purpose to provide new business opportunities for the participants who are expected to exhibit their latest products in the exhibition area of about 160,000 m2. Visitors come to BaselWorld to keep aware of the current trends of watch and jewelry making, while retailers and wholesalers discover new partners and strengthen their links with well-established ones.

The exhibition is divided into product sectors presented in the six exhibition halls, among them there are the Hall of Universe and the Hall of Elements. This year the management of the Show has taken care of updating and redecorating the design of the halls.

All the participants of the event will be able to expand their business contacts beyond the fair in the BaselWorld Village located nearby. The ‘village’ comprises special facilities for partners to discuss their matters in informal atmosphere.

Drug Abuse Treatment And Ways To Tackle It

February 4th, 2020 | Cosmetic Surgery |

byadmin

Drug abuse treatment is applied for an individual with the diagnosis of a Substance Use Disorder. There are both outpatient and inpatient treatments. The level of treatment usually depends on several factors.

For outpatient drug abuse treatment, the patient must be in a safe enough environment to participate in the treatment without posing a health risk. There are safe and effective outpatient treatments for Opiate Use Disorder, Alcohol Use Disorder and Tobacco Use Disorder.

Ideally, drug abuse treatment should be managed by a Board-Certified Addictionologist. An Addictionologist is a physician with special training in Addictive Diseases. Such a doctor is best qualified to manage Substance Use Disorders.

Another form of treatment for drug abuse is inpatient treatment. Inpatient treatment is for those individuals who fail outpatient treatment, or for those for whom additional monitoring is necessary for patient safety. Examples of this would be an elderly individual or someone with some severe or complicated, pre-existing medical problems.

One advantage of inpatient treatment is that it is provided in a drug-free environment. Some individuals require this, to break through the cycle of drug addiction. Others can be managed as an outpatient and attend support groups such as Alcoholics and Narcotics Anonymous.

Substance Use Disorders now can be effectively managed with appropriate medical care. The best way to tackle a Substance Use Disorder is the first admit that a problem exists and then to seek appropriate care. Involving family and friends is helpful and avoiding individuals who are abusing substances also increases the chances of success.

If you or someone you know has a problem with Heroin or other Opiates, excellent help is now available at The Drug and Alcohol Detox Clinic of South Mississippi. Call 601-261-9101 or on the web at: www.TheDrugandAlcoholDetoxClinic.com.

February 3rd, 2020 | Uncategorized |

Wednesday, January 27, 2010

The bodies of two children were found this morning in a car in Heathfield, East Sussex, in the United Kingdom. A 43-year-old woman has been arrested on suspicion of the murders.

The boy and girl were both less than five years old, and were discovered at 11:46 this morning (GMT) when Sussex police officers forced their way into the vehicle, which was parked on Mill Close in Heathfield. The woman, who has yet to be identified, had visited Heathfield police station earlier this morning to report “an incident”, and was later arrested on suspicion of murder. The police say that they have identified the bodies. The identities will be revealed when the post mortem examinations take place, which is scheduled for next Thursday.

I would like to reassure people that it is fully contained and there is no threat to anyone in the area

The woman was taken to Eastbourne District General Hospital, and has not yet been interviewed by the police. She is believed to be from Surrey but have connections with the Heathfield area. Mill Close, the road on which the incident occurred, has been closed, according to a police spokeswoman, who said, “An investigation is now under way and the area around the scene is cordoned off.” Chief Inspector Julia Pope, Wealden district policing commander, said, “This is a very tragic incident, but I would like to reassure people that it is fully contained and there is no threat to anyone in the area. We will move to restore normality and access to Mill Close as quickly as possible.” A spokesman for the South East Coast Ambulance Service said, “We sent an ambulance and two response cars but sadly two young children were pronounced dead at the scene.”

His works have appeared in the 2004 and 2005 Applied Arts Awards Annual, the top publication for the creative industry.

How To Read My Wife’s Emails With Webwatcher}

February 3rd, 2020 | Outdoor Furniture |

Submitted by: Verny L

Would you like to learn how to read my wife’s emails with Webwatcher? Do you wonder what your wife does while on her email account? Do you think she may be emailing other guys? Have you ever suspected your wife of cheating on you through her email account? Does your wife hide her email activity from you? If you walk into the room while your wife is in the middle of typing an email does she change the screen or close the email out?

When you ask your wife who she is having email conversations with does she reply to you with no one or just a friend from work? Does she constantly check her emails even at odd hours of the night or as soon as she wakes up in the morning? Whenever you come home during the day do you always find your wife on the computer looking at her emails?

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ORiHStSIw-I[/youtube]

What people can do on the computer in today’s world is virtually endless. They can visit any kind of websites they desire, purchase any kind of product they want and talk to whoever they choose. The options that someone has on the computer are limitless and emailing is one of them. Your wife could be emailing anyone she wants to. This also means that she could in fact just be emailing a friend or a business partner but how are you suppose to know? If you have suspicions about your wife’s email activity then you should find out for sure, yourself.

However, there is one problem with trying to find out the truth for yourself. Most husband’s will either demand to see their wife’s email account results in problems or they will try to sneak onto their wife’s account. Both of these options are proven to be pretty ineffective. For one, your wife’s email account if probably password protected so you wouldn’t have any way to get onto her account. If she were to tell you her password but was also talking to people that she shouldn’t be talking to then your wife most likely erases these emails leaving no evidence of her conversations. You will still be left in the same situation as before or even worse you may be left with the thought that your wife isn’t talking to other men when she really is.

In order to find out the truth for yourself you will need to use a program called Webwatcher. Webwatcher is computer monitoring software. It records all of the activities your wife does on her computer including her emails. This software records your wife’s emails and uploads them to your personal Webwatcher account. On this account you can view your wife’s emails and be able to know who he is really talking to and even what is being said. Even if your wife erases all of her emails you will still be able to see them because even the deleted messages are recorded by Webwatcher. With this software you will be able to find out the truth for yourself.
