    by , 08-28-2014 at 09:25 AM (Memories of the 28th Century)
    Horology (via Latin horologium from Greek ὡρολόγιον, from ὥρα hṓra "hour; time" + -o- interfix + suffix -logy; lit. the study of time
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horology
    I have written about horological reform before, and I thought it was time to do so again, but this dictionary in Microsoft doesn’t seem to realize that “horological” is a perfectly good and correctly spelled word. Perhaps other s agree.

    Apparently there are few straightforward histories of ...

    Peace be on you.

    Once a traveler came to the Holy Prophet (p.b.u.h.). He sent message to home for food. Reply came that there was nothing at home except water. At this, he asked Companions who would arrange for food for this guest? A Companion said he would. He went home and asked his wife to arrange for provisions for the guest of Holy Prophet (p.b.u.h.). The wife told him food was so little that it was only for children. The Companion said her to prepare meal, and light the lamp, ...

    It isn’t as much of an issue now as it was at some other times, but there are still people who are concerned about stem cell research. I can understand people disapproving of the use of cells of living people in the research, but after the death of a person it should be a non-issue. I suppose that using cells from aborted fetuses would bother people who oppose abortion, but the good that may come from the research should come close to outweighing the origin, but fetal stem cells are no longer required ...
  5. The Results Are In

    So. My blood test results are good. That rules out one possibility. I still need to go for an ultrasound to look for abnormalities.
