Karie's Blog Lots of numbers, no great graphics, etc. But the credibility with which they presented, and their ability to answer any question directly, honestly, non-defensively, and sometimes with "I don't know," set the tone for the subtle signs of acceptance by the audience. That would explain why we are sometimes OK with Chris being late, a brilliant developer, but not as tolerant of Pat coming in late, if Pat is barely contributing to the work group. During the presentations this week, those people who walked in the room with a lot of known credibility got a chance to use some of their idiosyncrasy credits, while those who didn't have as many may have gone in the hole. blogs.sun.com /clo/entry/idiosyncrasy_credits,_colin_powell,_and   (675 words)

Idiosyncrasy and the history of the Man   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19) Idiosyncrasy and the history of the Man-Machine Interface: An idiosyncrasy is essentially a phenomenon of the “Man-Machine Interface”. However, even with the loss of a cognitive self, certain actions dubbed “idiosyncrasies” began to manifest themselves in the cyborg laborers, for instance some cyborgs were left handed others right handed. Because of the unpredictable nature of emerging idiosyncrasies and the somewhat frowned-upon application of using terminally ill individuals in the cyborg process the man-machine interface projects were eventually discontinued. home.comcast.net /~aarondavidcole/glok_reference.htm   (306 words)

Then it is plainly to be seen that chronic and acute idiosyncrasies are present in the subject, and instead of a fault to be regretted in a patient, should be studied comprehensively in its relation to its expressions, viz., symptomatology.

Posted 2/10/97 Christine Ammer, in her "Have A Nice Day -- No Problem," a dictionary of cliches, agrees that the phrase probably dates to the early 20th century, and notes that the alliteration of "hell" and "handbasket" probably contributed to the popularity of the saying. Incidentally, "idiosyncrasy" is one of those rare English words whose modern sense corresponds almost precisely to the combined meanings of its ancient roots. Language almost never operates in such an orderly fashion, and it is far more common to find that the roots of a word bear only a tangential logical relation to its current meaning. www.word-detective.com /back-e2.html   (1830 words)

Possible Relevance of Virus Infection for Development of Analgesic Idiosyncrasy - Karger Publishers Although it has been hypothesized that analgesic idiosyncrasy could be acquired by viral infection, there is no evidence that any virus can cause sporadic cases of aspirin-intolerant asthma.

Strata Lucida: Beer, geology, idiosyncrasy But the very processes and ingredients they use to achieve that consistency result in a muted, lifeless beer. The idiosyncrasies and delights of a living beer are destroyed by pasteurization and filtering, which remove all the yeast, making the beer a stable, static product. Craft brewers, for the most part, abhor this: they want to keep the beer alive, the better to savor the local and temporal oddities that make each beer different from the next. www.sonic.net /~ctweney/blog/archives/000220.html   (587 words)

CrazyAuntPurl: Five idiosyncrasies Posted by: Cynthia at October 18, 2005 07:34 PM If we all have the same idiosyncrasy, then it is normal behavior and no longer an idiosyncrasy. I do the time thing, the month thing (especially when I was pregnant!) the alarm one, and definitely the microwave one, for the "cheaper by the dozen" reason- but what is sad is if someone asks me how long to nuke something, I give them a "normal"/even time instead of my personal fave, 22 seconds.

CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: The Byzantine Empire In reading the history of this people, one has to accustom oneself to a Janus-like national character — genuine Christian self-sacrifice, unworldliness, and spirituality, side by side with avarice, cunning, and the refinement of cruelty. It is, indeed, easy to detect this idiosyncrasy in both the ancient and the modern Greeks. Greek cruelty, however, may have been aggravated by the circumstances that savage races not only remained as foes on the frontier, but often became incorporated in the body politic, only veiling their barbaric origin under a thin cloak of Hellenism. www.newadvent.org /cathen/03096a.htm   (16935 words)
