Naming a person as reference/authority
The feature fires where a specific named or pronominal person is invoked to vouch, recommend, author, or take responsibility for something — from "can I use your name as a referee" to "her husband was the author" to "the analyst's inadequacy."
a note of dependent, faintly anxious appeal or deference in the request-emails, shading into a cooler, analytic attribution-of-authority tone in the theoretical/theological excerpts — present in some, not all.

1is to provide data about cognition and personality variables such as motivations, response tendencies, cognitive operations, affectivity, and personal/interpersonal perceptions. The underlying assumption is that an individual will class external stimuli based on person-specific perceptual sets, and including needs, base motives, conflicts, and that this clustering process is representative of the process used in real-life situations. Methods of interpretation differ. Rorschach scoring systems have been described as a system of pegs on which to hang one's knowledge of personality. The most widely used method in the United States is based on the work of Exner. ¶ Administration of the test to a group of subjects, by means of projected images, has also occasionally been performed, but mainly for research rather than diagnostic purposes. ¶ Test administration is not to be confused with test interpretation: ¶ "The interpretation of a Rorschach record is a complex process.

2genesis of the leader. ¶ 65 ¶ http://www.lacaninireland.com <0x0C>It is not in vain that psychoanalytic psychology is turning increasingly towards group psychology and even to the psychotherapy of that name. ¶ Let us observe its effects in the analytic group itself. It is not true that so- called training analysers conform to the image of their analyst, at whatever level one wishes to examine it. It is rather among themselves that analysers of the same analyst share a common feature that may be quite secondary in the economy of each of them, but in which the inadequacy of the analyst with regard to his work is clearly marked. ¶ Thus anyone for whom the problem of desire can be reduced to the lifting of the veil of fear, leaves wrapped in this shroud all those he has guided. ¶ 18. So we have now reached the cunning principle of this power that is always open
3in their article on the Zohar for the 1906 Jewish Encyclopedia, cite a story involving the noted Kabbalist Isaac of Acco, who is supposed to have heard directly from the widow of de Leon that her husband proclaimed authorship by Shimon bar Yochai for profit.: ¶ A story tells that after the death of Moses de Leon, a rich man of Avila named Joseph offered Moses' widow (who had been left without any means of supporting herself) a large sum of money for the original from which her husband had made the copy. She confessed that her husband himself was the author of the work. She had asked him several times, she said, why he had chosen to credit his own teachings to another, and he had always answered that doctrines put into the mouth of the miracle-working Shimon bar Yochai would be a rich source of profit. The story indicates that shortly after its appearance the work was believed by some to
4blessed be He. ¶ Come and see: The poor man's offering is the lightest, because his heart is broken. Even if he meditates on sinning, the sin passes from him because his sorrow and the sorrow of his household suffice. Therefore, each and every offering are all individually known to the priest. ¶ There is a story of a certain rich man who brought two pigeons before the priest. When the priest saw him, he said to him: This offering is not for you. He came home sad. His brothers said to him: Why are you sad? He said to them: The priest did not sacrifice my offering. They said to him: What was THE OFFERING? He said to them: Two pigeons. They said, But this is for the poor, not for you, as it is written, "And if he be poor, and his means do not suffice" (Vayikra 14:21
5between two other points: it is clear that the multiplicity in this case is metric, that it allows itself to be striated, and that its determinations are magnitudes. On the other hand, two sounds of equal pitch and different intensity cannot be compared to two sounds of equal intensity and different pitch; in this case, two determinations can be compared only “if one is a part of the other and if we restrict ourselves to the judgment that the latter is smaller than the former, without being able to say by how much.”[630] Multiplicities of this second kind are not metric and allow themselves to be striated and measured only by indirect means, which they always resist. They are anexact yet rigorous. Meinong and Russell opposed the notion of distance to that of magnitude.[631] Distances are not, strictly speaking, indivisible: they can be divided precisely in cases where the situation of one determination makes it part of another. But unlike
6task of clearing the way for the status of a discourse, there where I locate that there is … something of discourse: and I locate it from the social bond to which are submitted the bodies that labitent3 this discourse. My undertaking appears hopeless (is so by that very fact, this is the result of hopelessness) because it is impossible that psychoanalysts should form a group. Nevertheless the psychoanalytic discourse (this is me clearing the way) is precisely the one that can establish a social bond cleansed of any group-necessity. Since people know that I do not mince my words when it is a matter of putting into relief an appreciation which, though deserving a stricter approach must do without it, I would say that I measure the group-effect by the amount of imaginary obscenity it adds to the effect of discourse. People will be all
7<bos>THE SECOND MOVEMENT in the twentieth-century phi- losophy of language has lacked the solid foundation that the first enjoyed. Unlike grammar and logic, rhetoric has not been re- furbished by new ideas and new vigor but remains a weak and ancillary discipline about which few students of language have strong or clear ideas. As an academic subject, rhetoric remains associated with elocution and literary criticism rather than with linguistics and logic. The development of linguistics in the twentieth century has tended to reinforce the association between meaning and logic rather than to challenge it. It did this from the very beginning in the hands of Saussure, who regarded the elements of language as something ideal rather than empirical and whose distinction between signifiant and signifié we have already mentioned. The latest developments in linguistics con- t

We learn that Jacob's love for Joseph over his brothers, and the coat that he gave Joseph, was the immediate cause of the Exile itself, which is, in turn, shown to be a parable of human history. ¶ The children of Israel are designated as the Chosen People in response to the measure of their internal Vessel - the Desire to Receive -
9s in Hebron in order to be rescued from the misguided decisions of the rest of the spies. Rabbi Shimon says that the Shechinah was robed in Caleb to bring tidings to the Patriarchs, and that the three spies were descendants of the Nefilim. ¶ "And Moses...sent them...all those men" (Bemidbar 13:3), MEANING THAT all were righteous and chiefs of Yisrael. However, they took bad counsel for themselves. Why did they take this counsel? It was because they thought: if Yisrael entered the land, we would be removed as chiefs and Moses would appoint other chiefs; since we deserved to be chiefs only in the desert, in the land we would not deserve TO BE CHIEFS. Due to having taken bad counsel for themselves, they died, as did all those who accepted their counsel. ¶ "These are the names of the men whom Moses sent... "
10<bos>The principle of the event is where Badiou diverges from the majority of late twentieth century philosophy and social thought, and in particular the likes of Foucault, Butler, Lacan and Deleuze, among others. In short, it represents that which is outside of ontology. Badiou's problem here is, unsurprisingly, the question of how to 'make use' of that which cannot be discerned. But it is a problem he views as vital, because if one constructs the world only from that which can be discerned and therefore given a name, it results in either the destitution of subjectivity and the removal of the subject from ontology (the criticism continually leveled at Foucault's discursive universe), or the Panglossian solution of Leibniz: that God is language in its supposed completion. ¶ Badiou again turns here to mathematics and set theory – Badiou's language of ontology – to study the possibility of an indiscernible element
11secret of Oedipus-the-modern-tyrant benefited very little from having been thus disinfected. ¶ Is it possible that, by taking the path that it has, psychoanalysis is reviving an age-old tendency to humble us, to demean us, and to make us feel guilty? Foucault has noted that the relationship between madness and the family can be traced back in large part to a development that affected the whole of bourgeois society in the nineteenth century: the family was entrusted with functions that became the measuring rod of the responsibility of its members and their possible guilt. Insofar as psychoanalysis cloaks insanity in the mantle of a “parental complex,” and regards the patterns of self-punishment resulting from Oedipus as a confession of guilt, its theories are not at all radical or innovative. On the contrary: it is completing the task begun by nineteenth-century
12And it was his opinion, that metaphysicks may as clearly be demonstrated as mathematicks, as witness his expression in the Dedicatory Epistle of this Work to the ~Sorbone~ Doctors, ~Eas~ (Rationes scilicet) ~quibus hic utor certitudine & evidentiâ Geometricas æquare, vel etiam superare existimem~; That he reputed his Arguments used in these Meditations, to equal if not excell Geometrical certainty._ ¶ _And this, I suppose, is sufficient to make the Reader, not expect herein any smoothness of phrase or quaintness of Expression; what is here delivered in English is immediately taken, as it is naturally in the Original.

13” (the title of his work) over those of the limbs, and clearly understands worship as belonging in its essence to the former category. Maimonides follows him in proclaiming the Torah’s prescription of sacrificial worship as a compromise with the weak nature of the Exodus generation, made up of slaves whose ancestors had lived for generations in ancient Egypt, the very heart of idolatry. While his code follows the Mishnah in including sacrificial laws and laws of Temple purity, Maimonides’ philosophic writing clearly expresses his preference for prayer over animal slaughter as a way of coming into God’s presence. In contrast to these philosophical views, the Zohar devotes an extraordinary amount of attention to the Temple cult, to the priesthood, and to all aspects of the Torah that are associated with them. It is in the course of these discussions, in fact, that the view of the commandments as “divine
14. 82). In this sense the theater of cruelty would be the art of difference and of expenditure without economy, without reserve, without return, without history. Pure presence as pure difference. Its act must be forgotten, actively forgotten. Here, one must practice the aktive Vergesslichkeit which is spoken of in the second dissertation of The Genealogy of Morals, which also explicates “festivity” and “cruelty” (Grausamkeit). ¶ Artaud’s disgust with nontheatrical writing has the same sense. What inspires this disgust is not, as in the Phaedrus, the gesture of the body, the sensory and mnemonic, the hypomnesiac mark exterior to the inscription of truth in the soul, but, on the contrary, writing as the site of the inscription of truth, the other of the living
15III. 614-15, SE V. 610-11) ¶ Some fifteen years later, writing on the Unconscious, Freud assures us: “Study of the derivatives of the Ucs. will completely disappoint our expectations of a schematically clear-cut distinction between the two psychical systems.” (GW X. 289, SE XIV. 190) ¶ And yet the topographical fable continues to be used, to my mind precisely because it is a graphically representable one—a “structure” in that orthodox sense. Freud has dismantled the sovereignty of the self; his topographical description allows him to suggest the production of that self in the structuring of the text of the psyche. Derrida will say: “It is only necessary to reconsider the problem of the effect of subjectivity as it is produced by

Consequently, they will attempt to align my rotations according to these interests. So a special thank you to you for passing on your knowledge and enthusiasm to me, as this has played a part in shaping my career. ¶ GSK has asked me for a University reference as results are finally out.

23building up a very nice story of a tailor's journey from North to South which I hope you will appreciate when I finish. ¶ The type of discussion that goes on in this particular forum reminds me of my father's old group of friends (he was into Meher Baba and Inayat Khan before he got tired of it and reverted). Whenever they would get irritated with each other, they would engage in accusations of who had the lowest stage of ego.

30<bos>the status quo rather than crystallizing it. This is the deep trick of "AI for climate": optimization without authorship. The model doesn't ask whether a multilane intersection should exist. It just asks how to clear it faster. It doesn't ask whether that airport should be there. It just asks how to route planes to avoid contrails. In each case, AI is introduced at precisely the layer where it cannot question the objective. It can only minimize the harm of objectives chosen elsewhere. Green a
