I've been oversleeping lately.

Hm.
At least I won't be allowed to do that tomorrow.

Being able to recognize baiting is useful. Sometimes it’s hard to see the forest for the trees unless one is already fully aware of a given situation.

My VPN provider is having some problems, so I can't use Google translate to easily view this site.

I haven't been here for a few days. I went to the March for Life in Victoria BC on Thursday and I've been busting my stem making as many Om Noms as I can. I was just looking at a container of cookies on my mum's counter. I've decided to eat a slice of bread with real butter instead.

3:18 am in North-West England, just checked the sky outside and could see no sign of the Aurora Borealis. Still never seen this phenomenon in my lifetime.

There's been a few cases of people trying to isolate infants to see if they develop language and what language it might be.

No, they don't.
Also, they end up in poor health. Such experiments are inherently abusive.

Even feral children who have had some exposure to language often struggle with it.

I just saw spam advertising a wizard.

I like that even those who dabble in the arcane arts need to rely on those who dabble in the contemporary arts to reach clients.

The woman's name is Deborah Buzan. She was not raised in a box.

Stop this rubbish about me and my dad, says Deborah Skinner Buzan.

Quote:

As a child, Buzan attended Woodstock Country School in South Woodstock, Vermont. As a teenager, she worked at the Sea Life Park Hawaii. Led by Karen Pryor, Sea Life Park used many of B.F. Skinner’s principles, including positive reinforcement and shaping of successive approximations, in its professional dog training courses.

Buzan graduated from Boston University in 1967 with a Bachelor of Arts in Art history. After graduation, she spent a year studying Mosaic in Florence, Italy. Subsequently, she moved to London and studied etching under Henry Wilkinson at the City and Guilds of London Art School. On March 12, 1973, Deborah Skinner married Barry Gordon Buzan. Their ceremony was held at the Rosslyn Hill Unitarian Chapel in Hampstead, London. At the time of their wedding, Barry Buzan was studying political science and International relations at the London School of Economics. He later graduated with a doctorate of philosophy, and the couple moved to Vancouver, where Buzan worked at the Institute of International Relations at Vancouver University.

Deborah and her husband lived in London, and etching became her main career. She became a well-respected artist and sold many art pieces at galleries in both North America and Britain, and her creations have also been showcased in various solo and group shows. Her work has been included in many public collections, such as the Bank of America, Lloyds Bank International, and the Plymouth Museum and Art Gallery.
