  Big, Big Congratulations to Lewis Hamilton and Team Mercedes for sculpting, engineering a Win at the Russian Grand Prix at the Sochi Circuit on Sunday 27th September 2021. A Big Congratulations, also, to Max Verstappen and Team Red Bull, and to Carlos Sainz and Team Ferrari for making it P.2 and P.3, respectively.  And Massive Commiserations to Lando Norris and Team McLaren, for not having made it to P.1 or P.2.  Primarily, it seems, because they hag gotten their communications and strategy terribly wrong, in their response to the rain downpour during the last few laps of the race.  Which resulted in Norris being caught out with the wrong tyres to maintain his race lead.   And creating the fortuitous opportunity for Lewis to take the lead, and Max to promote himself to P.2.As Norris drifted backwards and finally held on at P.7.  A situation which was not massively different to how Hamilton's late tyre change, coupled with his accident while pitting, deprived him of a probable Pol

  I mean, think of it, contemplate on the idea, theory or hypothesis that, the dead, who no longer or otherwise navigate the earth.  Except for those of us who believe that there is a soul or spirit entity which leaves our bodies when we die, and maintains a conscious existence of their dead bodies.   Will miraculously be risen up by 'God' on the 'Day of Judgement', and be rewarded by being ascended to 'Heaven', or punished, by being sent to 'Hell' or 'Hades.'  Does that sound like rational or logical thinking? That all the billions of people, many of who were infants when they died, will be again become alive? While it might mak e a bit of sense, if theistic religions were to argue that, the 'God' that they serve or worship.  Would be raising the 'faithful', the 'believer' from their state of death, and reward them by sending or taking them to 'Heaven.'  It is more difficult to argue the supposed logic of raising

  There are many adjectives which people could and would use to preface their description of any human who would seek to put forward an argument for our species not continuing to have children.  Idiot, fool, miscreant, insane, are but a few of them. Ok, granted that some of those reactions , would be initial and/or knee-jerk ones, which might or might not be subsequently tempered after the responders engage their intellects.  Granted, also, that 'calmer heads' might prevail after those on whose ears such a shocking and apparently foolish and suicidal proposition were to fall.   When they seek further information about which any human would argue for such finalistic solution to whatever 'problem' human existence poses and confronts. I can appreciate that any argument or case for not having children, must also be an argument and case for the extinction of the human species.  Yes, I can and would not seek to argue otherwise. Yes, the case for not having children is the ver

  It is probably not going to invest in the education of its young people, of both genders, but especially women.   In comparison to other religiously backward, but intellectually advanced Islamic countries. Such as Iran, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, et al, have done, in order to not be left behind in. Yes, the Taliban government is never going to be an advocate of essential human rights.  The right of Afghans to decide for themselves whether the want to worship, or to be defined as 'Muslim.'  To decide for themselves whether they want to go to Friday Prayers or to pray five times a day.  Of course it is not exceptional in this respect; as the people of Iran, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, et al, are also expected to attend prayers and worship within the requirements of applicable religious laws.  Whether or not they really believe and want to worship.  The kind of burden which causes most of us who are living in more enlightened countries which have successfully thrown off the religious

  Well, I think that it would be accurate to say my dear mother is currently on an even keel, as it were.  I have not observed any noticeable decline in my dear mother's mental of physical state within the past several weeks.  Based on what she has been doing, my dear mother has the capacity and motivation to exist her bedroom and make her way, on her own and/or without her walking frame, to the other rooms in her apartment.  It is of course, the case that her capacity and motivation to make these forays, will be influenced by her psychological and physical state and her energy level at any given time.  But this is just as it is for many others. In terms of her appetite, it does appear that my dear mother has made a bit of improvement in her consumption of ordinary foods of the lighter varieties.  Soft food which she does not have to chew too much and, it appears, finding it difficult or uncomfortable to swallow.  Nevertheless, this problem of her reduced appetite remains a major o

  And, in the same order of importance, the role of religion, namely Islam, in the country and the nation. Can Afghanistan become a modern and prosperous nation, in which the reasonable political, religious and other human rights of the individual and groups can be realised and safeguarded?  Or must those rights, or some or all of them be suppressed and suffocated in deference to Islamic monopolism? It would appear that, for some Muslims, the two perspectives are incompatible.  That it is not realisable for Afghanistan to evolve a modern, futuristic and prosperous nation, while retaining its essentially Islamic soul.  To some extent, this is not a surprising conclusion, since Islam, as the orthodox Muslim or believer would contend, is more than 'just a religion.' It, Islam, they would argue, is a way of life.  Whereas Jesus Christ - Isa, in Islam - was reported to have said that one is to give unto Ceasar what is his, according to the secular society or imperative, you might sa

  Of course, it is not just a matter of having a crash, but also about lives and limbs being placed at risk.   As we can see from the likelihood that Hamilton, but for the protection of his car's canopy, could have been killed or suffered major life-changing traumas during the accident. Contemplation of which was what could temper his and and Max's frustration, disappointment, and probably anger at being taken out of the race; irrespective of who was at fault or responsible for precipitating it.  Yes, it was this which is able to put into proper perspective the disappointment of the watching audience, for whatever expectations and hopes we had for either racer winning.  After all, if a racer had to suffer the disappointment of having a DNF, having one at the beginning or near the end of the race can be particularly tough. This spectacular take-out, after careful examination of the available information, by the Race Stewards, and irrespective of the conclusions of the pundits.
