  1. Antiprocess

    Unreferenced date April 2008 Orphan date August 2007 att May 2008 Antiprocess is the preemptive recognition and marginalization of undesired information by the interplay of mental defense mechanism s the subconscious compromises information that would cause cognitive dissonance . It is often used to describe a difficulty encountered when people with sharply contrasting viewpoints are attempting and failing to discuss a topic. In other words, when one is debating with another, there may be a baffling disconnect despite his apparent understanding of the argument. Despite the apparently sufficient understanding to formulate counter arguments, the mind of the debater does not allow him to be swayed by that knowledge. There are many instances on the Internet where antiprocess can be observed, but the prime location to see it is in Usenet discussion groups, where discussions tend to be highly polarized. In such debates, both sides appear to have a highly sophisticated understanding of the other position, yet neither side is swayed. As a result, the debate can continue for years without any progress being made. Antiprocess occurs because The mind is capable of Human multitasking multitasking The mind has the innate capability to evaluate and select information at a preconscious level so that we are not overwhelmed with the processing requirements It is not feasible to maintain two contradictory beliefs at the same time It is not possible for people to be aware of every factor leading up to decisions they make People learn argumentatively effective but logically invalid defensive strategies such as rhetoric rhetorical fallacies People tend to favour strategies of thinking that have served them well in the past and The truth is just too unpalatable to the mind to accept. The ramifications of these factors are that people can be engaged in a debate sincerely, yet the appearances suggest that they are not. This can lead to acrimony if neither party is aware of antiprocess and ...   more details



  1. Tutnese

    unreferenced date April 2008 Tutnese or Double Dutch is a language game primarily used in English language English , although the rules can be easily modified to apply to almost any language. Tutnese is usually used by child ren, who use it to converse in security through obscurity perceived privacy from adult s or vice versa by members of historically Marginalization marginalized minority groups for the same reason when in the presence of authority figures such as police pupolulisus or pizolizice or simply for amusement and humor. In it, vowel s are pronounced normally, but each consonant is replaced with a syllable from the following table class wikitable Letter Possible syllables Letter Possible syllables Letter Possible syllables B Bub K Kuck S Sus C Cash, coch L Lul T Tut D Dud M Mum V Vuv F Fuf, Fud N Nun W Wack, Wash G Gug P Pub, pup X Ex, xux H Hash, hutch Q Quack, queue Y Yub, yuck J Jay, jug R Rug, rur Z Zub, zug Example Mary had a little lamb becomes Mumarugyub hutchadud a lulituttutlule lulamumbub . Double letters in a word, rather than being repeated, are preceded by the syllable squa to indicate doubling. When the double letter begins with a vowel sound, in addition to the squa the letter name is pronounced as if it began with a T thus OO would be spoken as squa toh . While spaces between words are always ignored, at least one dialect requires that the first syllable of the name of any given punctuation mark be spoken, thus a full stop is Per , a question mark is Que Kway or Kay , varies , and a comma is Com . As things spoken in Tutnese take an extremely long time to say, and their accuracy depends entirely on the spelling ability of the speaker, there is little practical application of this language game. There is a version used in some parts of the USA called Yuckish or Yukkish, which uses more or less the same constructs.

They number about 35,000 and are closely related to the Samburu people Samburu living more to the north east in the Rift Valley Province . Their language is one of the Eastern Nilotic languages Eastern Nilotic Maa languages , closely related to the Samburu language between 89 and 94 lexical similarity , to the point of it being considered a Samburu dialect by some. Together, Samburu and Ilchamus form the northern division of the Maa languages. Heine 1980 Vossen 1982 In their oral traditions, the Ilchamus economy underwent a succession of elaborations from foraging and fishing to a sophisticated system of irrigation, and then this was mixed with pastoralism under the influence of Samburu immigrants and neighbouring Maasai. These changes involved a series of embellishments in their culture and social organization. Spencer 1998 129 203 . However, this evolving system did not survive the challenges of the capitalist economy in post colonial Kenya, leading to a more polarized society with diminishing prospects for the majority of Camus.

  1. Mental health consumer

    A mental health consumer is a person who is obtaining treatment or support for a mental disorder , also known as psychiatric or mental illness. The term was coined by people who use mental health services in an attempt to empower those with mental health issues, usually considered a Marginalization marginalized segment of society. The term suggests that there is a reciprocal contract between those who provide a service and those who use a service and that individuals have a choice in their treatment and that without them there could not exist mental health provider s. Today, the word mental health consumer has expanded in the popular usage of consumers themselves to include anyone who has received mental health services in the past, anyone who has a behavioral health diagnosis, or simply anyone who has experienced a mental or behavioral disorder. Other terms sometimes used by members of this community for empowerment through positive self identification include peers, people with mental health disabilities, psychiatric survivors, and ex patients. See the Psychiatric survivors movement for more information. A similar definition would be a person who receives psychological services, perhaps from a psychologist, a psychiatrist or a social worker. It is an impersonal term often used in the health sector of a large economy. The consumer often expects to have some influence on service delivery and provides feedback to the provider. In Australia, informal support groups of people who had recovered from episodes of mental ill health were formed during the first wave of moving patients out of psychiatriic hospitals into the community in the 1960s. In the USA and other countries, informal movements to change service delivery and legislation began to be driven driven by consumers during the 1980s. These groups aimed to correct perceived problems in mental health services and to promote consultation with consumers. Consumer theory was devised to interpret the special relationsh ...   more details

It was some of the first land used as an expansion of the medieval city was undertaken in the 18th and 19th centuries and became a fashionable neighborhood by the end of the 19th century.

Today, under the municipal government s new initiatives the neighborhood is redeveloping, with a number of new businesses and subsidies aimed at urban renewal and attracting the young to the area. This initiative has largely been very fruitful thus far. Many new shops and young entrepreneurs are setting up shop. The neighborhood is also home to a growing immigrant population and accordingly there are many Mediterranean, African and Latin American oriented stores and est ...   more details

The Free Lions were formed in November 1999 by Mabrouk Mubarak Salim . While the political grievances articulated by the Free Lions, like those of their allies the Beja Congress , revolve around the effects of large mechanized agricultural schemes upon traditional life, the act which mobilized the Rashaida into action was the government confiscation of 400 vehicles the government of Kuwait had given them in thanks for their political support during the 1991 Gulf War .

  1. Old boy network (Finland)

    unreferenced date February 2012 In Finland , the Finnish term hyv veli verkosto literally dear brother network is used to refer to the alleged informal network of men in high places whose members use their influence to pervert or circumvent official decision making processes to the members mutual benefit. As such, the term is pejorative. The term derives from the salutation Hyv veli , or Dear brother , traditionally used to open a letter to a not quite intimate friend. The implication is that since the elites of all fields are drawn from a fairly small pool of people who are mostly more or less acquainted with each other, they can and often do manage public and private affairs amongst themselves, off the record, and outside public scrutiny as they like. As the word brother implies, the network is usually presumed to be consisting of males, and thus the term is also sometimes used to refer to the marginalization of women and their exclusion from high positions in both the public and private spheres. There is an equivalent term, hyv sisko dear sister , used in reference to informal networks of women in high positions. President Urho Kekkonen was notable for directly communicating with senior officials past his Finnish Council of State cabinet s by means of letters, which famously began with the salutation Hyv veli . These have been published in three volumes. This practice exceeded his official powers, but he exercised his informal influence.

Eisenhower . The goal was to reduce the influence in the Middle East of Egypt s President Gamal Abdel Nasser because he seemed to be leaning in favor of the Soviet Union , and he failed to provide the leadership that Dulles and Eisenhower had desired towards settling the Arab Israeli conflict . The document s planned tactics were restriction of Eisenhower s 1954 Food for Peace program and other economic aid, delay and eventual cancellation of Aswan Dam funding, and the beginnings of a search for new leaders in the Arab world to use for peace promotion. However, the memo explicitly leaves policy room for Nasser s rehabilitation as a U.S. regional ally it aimed at Nasser s marginalization but not his destruction a marked difference to the correspondent British regional policy review of the same month, which focused on removing Nasser from power and was operationalized in the Suez Crisis of October November, 1956.

    Ahmed Francis b. in Relizane , 1912 d. Geneva , 1968 was an Algeria n politician and nationalist. After studying medicine in Paris , France , Francis returned to Algeria where he became involved with the movement for Algerian rights headed by his relative, the moderate nationalist Ferhat Abbas . Like Abbas, he was arrested by French colonialism colonial forces after the 1945 S tif massacre s, but later released.

Discouraged by increasing French political repression, he was eventually convinced to follow Abbas into exile in Cairo , to join the radical nationalist Front de lib ration nationale FLN , in 1956, two years after the FLN had begun an Algerian war of independence armed revolt for independence . He became a member of the Algerian government in exile , the GPRA , in the capacity of minister for economy and finances, arguably as something of a figurehead for more radical forces. As political infighting increased with independence approaching, he lost his place in the third 1961 ministerial lineup. After independence, he briefly joined the military backed government of president of Algeria president Ahmed Ben Bella , but resigned along with Abbas in protest of the single party system set up and of the marginalization of Algeria s constitutional assembly.

  1. Afe Annang

    Multiple issues orphan February 2009 notability October 2011 The Afe Annang was formed at the end of the Civil War in Nigeria with the goal of fighting the marginalization of the Annang by the Nigerian government . This single umbrella organization was to be the single voice of the Annang since most of the Annang leaders were killed during the war. The lack of a representative at the Nigerian policy table made the organization necessary. The need to make the organization authentic and to have it in line with traditional systems resulted in the creation of the office of a supreme head known as Itai Annang, literally translated, it is the head pillar of Annang. The office, however is not a traditional one and did not exist until the formation of the organization. It represents a political attempt at cohesiveness among the various Annang groups and allows the office holder to serve as a symbol of unity. Governance within this set up is done by the elders who act as the legislative arm called Afe Isong , directed by the Obong or Obong Isong Village Chief and Clan Chief who is the head and the chief executive. Authority of the Obong Isong is controlled by Afe Ison or Afe Isong , the traditional legislature . The next level higher level of leadership is Clan Head who leads a group Afe Isong a group of villages . The next higher level is the Paramount ruler who rules a group of clans. The traditional Obong Council of the Annang people is called Afe Annang and the council or legislature, or assembly is called Afe. Selection of an Obong is typically based upon a consensus of the village or clan through this complex social system. The leader of the traditional governing council of Annang people is called Itai Afe Annang . The Itai Afe Annang is regarded as the traditional leader and has no authority as the monarch of the Annang people.

  1. Internarrative identity

    Orphan date April 2010 citations date April 2011 Internarrative identity is building upon the notion of narrative Identity , the idea that our Identity social science identities are shaped by the accounts we give of our lives. The central tenant of internarrative identity is that the ability of individuals to shape their lives is extended by multiple Autobiography autobiographical narratives with associative principles beyond temporality . This concept was developed in 1997 by Ajit K. Maan in the central text Internarrative Identity. Overview While the foundation of Narrative Identity Theory is the holding together of life experiences in a unified structure, Internarrative Identity Theory celebrates what have previously been considered problematic areas of experience Conflict narrative conflict , marginalization , disruption , subversion , deviation as places of possibility for self creation. Internarrative Identity Theory locates the solution of narrative conflict within the problem itself. Existence in between authoritarian discourses and dominant cultures enables an extended form of agency wherein a subject is able to undermine traditional associations, assumptions, concepts, and at the same time, create links between otherwise incommensurable world view s.
