This is a normal post anybody claiming that standard vaccines cause more trouble than they cure are a fucking danger to society
I usually don't care about kooks, but these people pretty much directly endanger people who for medical reasons can't vaccinate themselves and also encourage gullible parents of children who can and should be vaccinated against pretty horrible diseases to not do so.

So fuck them for putting innocent lives in danger.

Anybody who seriously thinks that vaccination is not beneficial is an idiot. Yes there are risks. Yes some small percentage of people may even die directly because of vaccination. But the risks you take by not vaccinating are a hell of a lot higher.

This is a 3:38 trailer for a documentary on Rem Koolhaas - a Dutch architect. Don't know if you've ever heard of him, but you may find it interesting?

This is a normal post ah, nice. I think I once had a tutor in undergrad who taught there
or maybe it was just melbourne uni.

oma was great. got to do a little bit of detailing on cctv before they moved the team to Beijing. :D It was the Rotterdam office.

As you no doubt know, it's a complete ball-ache for work ethic. I had one day off in 4.5 months (a saturday) and worked pretty much 18hr days average. I took about a month to get back to normal afterwards.

But the good flip side to all that work is that it's because you get a lot of responsibility (or did - I hear they're getting a bit more corporate in the office now). I had to sit in meetings with and present to rem. You're expected to pipe up with ideas as you think of them which takes a bit of getting used to (being a usually-ignored intern and all). I was almost sick from nerves before the first meeting. He is without doubt an absolute genius. More so than anyone else I've ever worked under. Not to sound sycaphantic, but he just has an instinct for good design decisions.

This is a normal post Wow
That sounds great! It actually sounds much better than what i was expecting. I'm suprised you would have any contact with Rem. I imagined a situation like with Foster where you are not allowed to approach him.

That all sounds fantastic though... I was choosing out of working there or doing the same thing somewhere like Sejima. I'm quite excited now!

Where are you studying? I was planning to go and do a research masters at AA if i couldnt get a job. But i just got one :(

From the sounds of it, i should probably start saving for OMA life now.

We find out how the amazon could become a carbon criminal, learn how to predict the extent of an avalanche, and celebrate the passing of DD45 - an object that floated past the Earth inside the orbit of the Moon. Plus, we find out if you can catch foot odour, if a bath full of vodka would get you drunk, and the delights of Liver a L'Orange!

This is a normal post Weird.
I've just been researching the toxicity of nanoparticles. I have a paper in my hand that clearly states that silver nanoparticles of size 15nm can dramatically increase reactive oxygen species and inflammatory response.

Of course this is a size dependant short term study and the particles have not yet had time to aggregate as they surely would in the human kidneys, liver and lungs with prolonged exposure, altering the catalytic surface presented. In the long term, at the very least this "treatment" will immunocompromise the "patient" (any initial positive effects will likely result from the placebo effect combined with the increased inflammatory response), and from that point it's a toss up between dying of kidney failure or some kind of granuloma. Could take a while though, the human body can take a lot of this kind of punishment.

But seriously, excessive colloid silver consumption turns you blue FFS. Is that not a clue?

Not to have the entire country sit vigil by her bedside watching her die. As I said its a side effect of the road she chose to go down.

When all said and done maybe this national and very personal exposure to such a terrible disease will do some good. Giving many people a first hand account of what it is like to die from cancer might get some more money flowing to cancer charities and thats a good thing. If it generates more charity money than she has made through prostituting her illness then Im all for that.

She isnt a person I would want to be friends with or really want anything to do with, but at the end of the day she is human, she is a loving mother and I am sure she also has friends and family who care deeply about her. She isnt Hitler or Stalin and I dont think it can be argued on any level that she deserves the hand that she has been dealt.

Your right the manner of her suffering and her impending death wont change her as a person but if it raises awareness of cancer and gets some money flowing in to the charities then she will have performed a very beneficial act, all be it unknowingly.

This is a normal post I know what you mean
but think of it as her celebrity being a seperate person from the actual woman. Non of us actually know her - her constant press coverage in the past is usually fabricated or exagerated by tabloids for sales. Basically 'Jade' that we know is a fictitious being and a fucking irritating one at that. That's what people are happy to laugh at when misfortune strikes.

I very much doubt that most people who laugh at this shit would actually laugh at her in real life. But that's the game she played...she sold this abstract version of herself to court attention and make money. When people criticise, there's no work to focus on (eg. I hate x's new book, x is a nob)- only her 'personality', so that's what gets the flack. When she herself got cancer, she can't really expect people to start seperating the real Jade from the tabloid one and give the real her sympathy while simultaneously hating her creation.

She made this situation herself. If anything, I think the Jade that everyone hates should be packed away (ie not be in the press) and the show brought to an end; while the real Jade goes through a normal, dignified death.
